Well, other bands know more than three chords. Your professional bands can play up to six, sometimes seven, completely different chords.

Spike's Bitches 40: Buckle Up, Kids! Daddy's Puttin' the Hammer Down.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I hope there's no bad news past the ovarian cyst, meara. A ruptured ovarian cyst is quite bad enough. As I'm sure I've said before, I've had a ruptured ovarian cyst and it was the most painful thing ever. Fortunately, for me, they just had to give me a bottle of percocet and ultrasound my insides a couple of times to make sure it was reabsorbed.

I have many healthy foods in my house. I don't want any of them. So far I've had a leftover slice of pizza, an apple and a granola bar.

I wish I could send you some sun, WS. I have sun and bluebirds nesting in my back yard. It's positively Disneyesque.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

aaand the Grand Prix must be about to start. Just heard some MAJOR flyover. I'm guessing fighter jets.

Awesome.

I have spent the day at my sister's family's home. We are going out for an early dinne, and then I'm driving home. Just got up from a nap.

so. Out of curiosity. the three backslashes. Does that disable formatting on the board? Is that how folks do the faux end tags? (OK, I guess not, as I just tried to do it, and it didn't work. I hope it didn't cause an error that requires stompies)

You'll like this, omnis.

I plug my iPod into the sound board for speaker check, which means I can pick whatever song I want.

The reed player in the band for the musical I'm mixing gets there about the same time I do. He's been jamming along with the tunes I pick when he does his warm up.

It brings a smile to my face every time.

Yesterday, it was Holst's Jupiter, today we jazzed it ip a bit with Les McCann and Eddie Harris, Compared to What.

Also, as I was taking a walk this morning, a hummingbird stopped to check me out. It hovered at face level, about three feet in front of me, for maybe twenty or thirty seconds. I stopped to let it.

It was... Incredible.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Hummingbird!

You've either still got about another hour to go or the broadcast is delayed. Traditional start time is 1 but the tv broadcast doesn't start today until 2:30.

God, you can *hear* the jets. I am so jealous. I love the flyovers nearly as much as the cars. No, that's not true. But I love the jets a LOT.

Now I have to go check online timing and scoring to see if tv is delayed or not. I was kinda hoping to watch this one on the laptop and the tv.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

My MiL hangs a hummingbird feeder from her front porch roof. The boids come to the kitchen door and yell at her when it's empty--now they've discovered the kitchen window and they'll come there, too. I was sitting out on the porch when one of them wanted to feed, and it felt threatened, so it dive-bombed me. Repeatedly. Feisty little thing. But gorgeous. And yes, I went inside so it could eat in relative security.

I'm glad you're feeling better, Andi.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Hi! My name is Suzi, and I think people should throw napkins at me whenever they eat with me.

I really really like it when that happens.
