A) LEARNING:
I have sought-out this song 7 times out of the 100 times I’ve been in my “Bluesy Mood” (see profiles, below) - and skipped it 0 times.
When in my “Rockin’ Mood” - I have sought-out this song 0 times and skipped it 110 times.
When I choose one of the above profiles - what do you think the [...]
Ok, I’m trying it again. A couple years back I bought a new tv (biggest screen I’d ever owned) and it didn’t work out too well. I couldn’t write about it then because it hurt too much, but within days of buying it I damaged it.
I was building a bookcase/tv-stand unit for the [...]

Lightbulbs. Odd looking things. Fairly “unspectacular” devices (no moving parts, no hidden components, not much mystery to their storage, installation, use, maintenance and repair [none], and disposal). Not something I’ve probably ever put much thought to. Don’t recall ever seeing it the featured component of a still-life oil-color. [...]
from a FoxNews story:
Ken Aclin, of Shreveport, La., won the Grand Panjandrum’s Award for his shocking similes and abusive use of adjectives. He wrote that India “hangs like a wet washcloth from the towel rack of Asia.”
I should have submitted the emails and memos I see at work every day!
I’m a bit depressed today. Lot’s of good reasons to be a little sad. Perhaps most depressing is that I don’t have hairloss (at least not that I’ve noticed). Oh, I’m not saying I want to *go bald*. It’s just that if I had a hairloss problem, I would know [...]
One of the unexpected costs of our recent visit to the Indiana State Museum (reported here) was my trusty (and vital) Palm M515 took a nosedive and cracked up on landing.
The kids and I were having a wonderful time making our own earthquakes: jumping on a pad and watching the seismagraph record our actions. [...]
I was relieved to see that the rash of Monkey bites in NYC has been controlled. It’s also good to see that the Sea Lion condition was nipped in the bud (no pun unintended).
Thanks to the Florida Museum of Natural History Ichthyology Department for providing a list of biting injuries in New [...]
I post today only because I panic when there is NO “current” element on the site. I don’t want to be forgotten so I’m posting something (anything) just to reset the clock.
The lack of blogging-pulse lately has not been an indicator of flat-line brain activity. Many is the morning I’ve started a post. [...]
THIS is frightening:
Photosensitive Seizure Warning
A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to certain visual images, including flashing lights or patterns that may appear in video games. Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause these “photosensitive epileptic seizures” while watching [...]
I’ve been celebrating every day since - so I might as well brag about it: I’ve been parking the van in the garage! Yes, that is where it belongs. Ok, so most people who have garages can manage this. Indeed, I ought to have been doing that all along. Cut [...]
