That was less fun than I expected. 25, btw. Could be a connection here...

Korea - Ostrich Philippines - Mangoes China - Szechuan anything Japan - Teppanyaki Belgium - Chocolate Switzerland - Chocolate France - Bread Italy - Margherita Pizza Britain - umm.... not exactly a giant in the cuisine world. sorry.

Jose Feliciano - Light My Fire (The Doors).

In a related story, the sun failed to rise this morning throughout the city of Lexington. Fortunately, I was able to drive to work by the ample light given by the steady throng of torches approaching the campus area. The pitchforks were a nuisance, admittedly, but manageable. Film at 11.

We rented Spiderman 3 on DVD this evening. If I didn't already live here, I would have walked out. It was quite atrocious. Even my 12 YO thought it was boring.

Because I have enough gray hair already without growing new ones. I'm happy with my gray hair, but not looking to actively add to the collection, mind you.

Get well, be well, enjoy your newly repaired pipes. Modern medicine is an amazing thing. And congrats on the NG-avoidance move....

If you like more progressive / experimental rock, go with OK Computer. If you like more straight-ahead rock, get The Bends first. And play them loud. Really, really loud. All the way through with no skipping. You'll be hooked in a week.

That's a fancy one. I just use a cheap round one that I think I got for free with something or maybe Target. Nothing special. I have to clean it about once a month with the same soap scum cleaner we use on the shower itself. I put it on the side wall of the shower so it's closer than the back wall.

That must be the Northern version.

It's a Republican thing. But that's also another thread.

I have always thought that "fixintuh" was a grammatical disaster, but I still use it. As in, I'm fixintuh go to the store - anybody want anything?

I started shaving IN the shower a few years back and prefer that. I have one of those fog-free suction cup mirrors, and shave at the end of my shower in the morning with a decent Gillette disposable 3-blade and Edge. I've found that works really well. Full shave, every day. I when I have to shave for some reason out of the shower, like whilst travelling. And for the record, I think this would make a very interesting poll-of-the-day. Maybe even a guy one and a lady one.

mute point, people.

just back from UK-UF... that certainly didn't go the way I was hoping... not a bad game, just not a great game. They were a little beat up from the LSU game, I think.

Half of it's you, and half is me.

ESPN Gameday is broadcasting from Lexington today (like now). UK-UF on national television. This whole city is about to wet its collective pants this weekend. Rumor has it that people here are offering to trade UK-UF Basketball tickets for UK-UF football tickets today. If anyone feels the earth start to tilt slightly off its axis, you'll know where it started.... Go Cats!

A couple noteworthy from the wayback machine... 1979 Bad Company. First concert. 1980(?) Cheap Trick, with The Romantics as an opener. In their red leather suits. That was fun. 1981 Springsteen - The River tour. Incredible. 1984 Talking Heads - the one-person-comes-out-at-a-time tour that they recorded Stop Making Sense from. Also fun.

Wilcobase Link ... last night of the tour and a hometown crowd. It was a very very good evening.

Life changing, right? Musically speaking, anyway, these are probably the ones that shaped what I listen to. Kansas - Point of Know Return (High School. On 8-track..) REM - Document (College) Radiohead - OK Computer (since) Wilco - YHF

The Meatball pizza (w/mushrooms!) at Joe Bologna's is the best pizza here in Lexington that you can buy. We make pizza at home a lot, so I suppose I'm a bit hard to please on that front. Pepperoni, italian sausage, lots of shroooms, banana peppers, roasted red bell peppers, a little pesto...

L S WHO? Oh, that was sweet. What an awesome football game.

Overtime? Be still my heart.

green eggs & ham

Is it February yet? Yes, this is a lame, shameless thread bump. I'm not selling anything, so I decided it's OK.
