  1. ... Strawberry Alarm Clock (I thought of The Beatles first, but they're really a 'SUPER group')
  2. ... "Coconut ", by Harry Nilsson "Bruder bought a coconut, he bought it for a dime, His sister had anudder one she paid it for de lime. She put de lime in de coconut, she drank 'em bot' up She put de lime in de coconut, she drank 'em bot' up. She put de lime in de coconut, she drank 'em bot' up She put de lime in de coconut, she call de doctor, woke 'im up, Said "doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take?" I said "Doctor, to relieve this belly ache," I said "Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take?" I said "Doctor, to relieve this belly ache." Now lemme get this straight, You put de lime in de co
  3. Silence... well, the dog just started barking to be let in as I started to type (excuse me... ) Almost silence then... since: the 'puter fan is whirring; an occasional bird sings outside; the house fan is on doing its cooling thing; my eggs are sizzling in the skillet; and now my wife's dog is crinkling up some newspaper in my 'office' trying to get comfortable and whining once in a while (sigh)... and then walks out pouting... and now she's back. Time to turn on some earthy tunes on the tube (enters post and leaves to turn on some mellow mood type stuff on the tube and eat brunch).
  4. Ah, Italia ! My poor Bro's work assignment is almost over. He's been in Italy over a year for Boing (sic) and will be returning very soon (if not already?... he hasn't emailed me lately?). Back to the game... ... romance
  5. Cloudy in Texas, Pete ?... or maybe you thought this was the Whether thread... lol Just kidding. Yesterday was below 100º with more of the same forecast. Air quality still a concern with ozone and smoke... even for healthy groups. The day before yesterday the porch thermometer hit *110º Fahrenheit with the air quality in the "Very unhealthy for all health groups" stage. (I found out that - that is what the stage after "Unhealthy for all health groups" is). *My thermometer might be off a bit on the high side, though, by a couple of degrees... I'm hoping. Thought I heard on CNN that the 'La
  6. Ha! My wife actually participated in roller derby back in the early '70's before we started dating. My Dad would watch it on the telly. I found it painful to watch it on the telly and could never even imagine attending. I think there is even a faction that is trying to ressurrect roller derby from its grave... boggles the mind. Anywho... ... fedora
  7. We lost a horse today, my wife's prized Arabian stud... maybe heat/smoke/ozone related... dunno. Kind'a ironic that our donkey passed away in one of our worst cold snaps the winter of 2006/2007. Air is still unhealthy to breathe for all health groups. Ozone is kicking up a notch or two or three to add to the smokey air. The other day a bit to the north (Auburn/Colfax) they had an air alert that was a notch above 'unhealthy for all health groups'. They never did explain what that was (deadly for those with breathing difficulties ???). Been a run on by people going to the doctor for breath
  8. The red sunrises and sunsets have turned a more managable orange-tint yellow. Breathing is almost allowable outdoors... though, not advised yet. One no longer has to chew the oxygen out of the air to metabolize. Temps in the 90's and rising this week.
  9. Just a stab ala Bushisms: forensicate; "We're goin to haft'a forensicate your computer there dude to make sure it's forensically pure."
  10. Our church publication... the Ensign magazine, and Readers Digest. I get more than enough 'puter info from the net (Besttechie and Digg) and some email dailies and periodicals (Lockergnome, CNET, TUDOGS, Microsoft, EveryMac, Gizmo's Support Alert, [email protected] [Jennifer Kyrnin's Web Design], etc.) and email alerts for topics of interest at Google News... to subscribe to a 'puter magazine.
