belated birthday wishes Q23

Great fun. Thanks for that Ray Bradbury image, Mr. K. When I was 12-ish, I ate pancakes with the Mayor of Cleveland. I was wearing a maternity dress and a wig. True story, as they say. Attorney General Ramsey Clark slept in my bed. I wasn't in it at the time. Hung out with Dudley Moore at Cedars Sinai MC many times when my uncle was in the hospital there. Met Jimmy Carter. Met actor Daniel Stern on the street in NYC -- he seemed thrilled that we recognized him and hung around to talk for a bit. Actress Greta Scaatchi (?) asked me to watch her toddler on the Amtrak to NYC

his pimp hand is strong The company WAS superb, as was the setting and dinner. Kudos to Kate's mama for hosting us and whipping up a fantastic meal.

it could serve as a meat locker, if I kept meat.

I haven't received any complaints from the neighbors. I napped under a down comforter in the meat locker, as is my way.

Im still 48 -- same as I was when we did this in July.

Happy trails Reni! PM the address for your mama's pad and I'll googlemap it. edit: uh, nevermind. When are you coming out Jen?

happy birthday to you and your twin

duh the big three: Bob Bruce and Jeff

Happy Birthday Kate! We'll all be wearing our birthday suits to celebrate next week!

tha's crazee.

Box Full of Letters is the music to some segment on NPR where they read listeners' letters. And maybe my favorite Wilco video.

I think I'll stick with q-tips.

did you mean this?

Or at least a buttplug. Dunkin Donuts at the Newburgh exit on I-84 is the last outpost of coffee civilization. But 12 hours on one cup? That's stoic. And maybe hazardous. I'm looking forward to seeing you Dan!

get a window seat, some dramamine, and a rubber band for your wrist. that's how I roll, I mean fly.

Dear Santa ...

I think it's a neat idea. My question was: Does the band need a quilt? How would they share it? All together on the bus? Weekly custody tradeoffs? Then I thought, maybe you could make them matching vests, and we'd be one step closer to my dream of them working up some Temptations-style choreography. I'm not being a smart ass really, I'd love to see them do that. But that's just me.

cmon out -- Chris knows the directions to Big Pink. Kate are you sure you want to do dinner for a crowd ... I mean, you're just flying in the night before and all?

get the hell out!! that's awesome! YAY!! In other news, I believe the drugs have worked their magic. I hope I'm not speaking too soon. Monday and Tuesday are the only options for the casa via contingent folks .... heading to the great north woods on Wednesday.

wrong answer Dan-o. Kidding ... I know, I know, Tuesdays. Can we do Tuesday daytime? I should be over the cholera by then.

Don't forget To Kill A Mockingbird. My daughter was heavily into Francesca Lia Block at that age, or maybe slightly older. I didn't read them (maybe I should have) but gathered they were rather edgy, which might appeal to your gal.

neither rain nor sleet nor hail nor power outage will stop the delivery of Spiders!!

Come you masters of war You that build all the guns You that build the death planes You that build the big bombs You that hide behind walls You that hide behind desks I just want you to know I can see through your masks You that never done nothin' But build to destroy You play with my world Like it's your little toy You put a gun in my hand And you hide from my eyes And you turn and run farther When the fast bullets fly Like Judas of old You lie and deceive A world war can be won You want me to believe But I see through your eyes And I see through your brain Like I see through the water Th

Would I be worth more if I was an albino with elephantitis?
