8022 – Come with me now on a journey through time and space!

GeotargetGot a wonderful hand-made card from ilenebook featuring an adorable rodent playing with berries in a Christmas sort of way.Thank you!


Went to the condo’s Christmas party last night…Not many of the young people attended, but it was nice to socialize with some of the building-folk when they’re not arguing about rules and bylaws. I got off easy on the food aspect, as I brought dinner rolls and such. They had a lot of veggie alternatives to munch on, and it was tasty.


Moment of lyric:

Calm a llama down
Calm a llama deep down
In the ocean blue
Like a barnacle
Sitting in the tight place
Laughing at the monkey arm
Pulling like a china boy

Kara-way
Kara-way
Kara-way noise

Boing si ka semala
Boing si ka semala

GeotargetI wish I were a Christmas tree
a pretty little pine
I’d wear a star upon my head
and ornaments that shine

Oh if I were a Christmas Tree
I’d dress myself with care
‘Cause if I wore bananas
I’ll get monkeys in my hair

I’d have nice presents at my feet
and tinsel to my toes
I’d be all wrapped in twinkly lights
with pine cones on my nose

I wish I were a Christmas tree
a pretty little pine
I’d wear a star upon my head
and ornaments that shine.

*POP* Oh yay!

Kitty Kitty Kitty you are pretty pretty pretty big
Kitty Kitty Kitty I like you!
Kitty Kitty Kitty you are pretty pretty pretty red
Kitty Pretty Kitty I LIKE YOU!!

-Charlotte from the “Making Fiends” Christmas special and Episode 6. I won’t bother to record the Vendetta rendition of the Christmas special, too much work. Well worth visiting, though.

7925 – woah-ho-ho-hoooo

GeotargetWoo… the King Kong marketing machine is in full swing… it’s going to be a Giant Gorilla Christmas!


I rather dig the Beijing Olympic Mascots.


Currently a bit pissed at work. only Carl Douglas and Giant Apes can cheer me up.

Moment of Lyric: mp3

Everybody was kung-fu fighting
Those cats were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit frightning
But they fought with expert timing

They were funky China men from funky Chinatown
They were chopping them up and they were chopping them down
It’s an ancient Chineese art and everybody knew their part
From a feint into a slip, and kicking from the hip

Everybody was kung-fu fighting
Those cats were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit frightning
But they fought with expert timing

There was funky Billy Chin and little Sammy Chung
He said here comes the big boss, lets get it on
We took a bow and made a stand, started swinging with the hand
The sudden motion made me skip now we’re into a brand knew trip

Everybody was kung-fu fighting
Those cats were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit frightning
But they did it with expert timing

(repeat)..make sure you have expert timing
Kung-fu fighting, had to be fast as lightning

K&K Mime Ministries – Hard-hitting gospel ministry through mime.

Heck, I know I’d check it out, but I’m a little off that way. It’s got to be better than Bibleman.


“Strange but true”-sounding lie of the day: In 103 AD, the Roman emperor Clavicus had a temple built to worship his favorite type of pastry.


Why didn’t *anyone* tell me that the Doom Patrol showed up this season on the Teen Titans? (Plus, they’re fighting the Brotherhood of Evil!) That was my big hope once I’d heard that the cartoon was launched! Once again, I thank bittorrent for speedy access to TV I’ve missed.

7799 – panorama and one line thoughts

“If you’re not with us, you’re against us” makes as just exactly as much sense as someone saying “If you’re not an apple, you’re a banana.”


hm… I won 25 prints through snapfish, but don’t use the service… anyone reading this want ’em? First come, first serve.


Nuts! I forgot all about the Hukilau! Maybe I can do a little catchup today.


HP is back in town.. I’m glad her vacation was nice, and that she made it back to her critters!


7339 –

Ah, choco chippie cookies arrived yesterday in a box the size of New Zealand. (FedEx large!) Newton also liked the brown-paper padding to protect on the edges of the Tupperware container. They are delicious, and only a little settling occurred in shipping. (a choco chip cookie tastes just as good when broken in half, anyhow!)

Thank you so very, very much, weezleweezle! You’re a very kind friend, and I appreciate your delightful efforts! Maybe that “trade of goods” could work out after all! 😉


Very Brief Moment of Lyric (mp3) – will expire in 7 days or so. Thanks, edenette!

Nice time in 2nd life… touring is a hoot with a sweet conversationalist. I need to learn a little notecard scripting for the orb, and it’ll be even better. Related – Wells Fargo Buys ‘Second Life’ Island

7334 – Nice day for Presents in the mail!

I got a lovely red thread from the Lisa2 It now adorns my palmtop case, which never leaves my side.

“An invisible red thread connects those who are destined to meet, regardless of time, place, or circumstance. The thread may stretch or tangle, but never break.”

I also got a received a groovy postcard from bubbles3563! A lovely shot of a mole sailor on a clipper ship near a curvy lighthouse. Thank you! It now has a revered spot on my fridge.


The walking weather is getting superb. The air is just a little cool in the early morning, prime for walkies, without all the eye-fry of the city of glass/disco ball dawn effect. I’m looking forward to more brisk weather soon.


2 new employees at work… Accounting assistant and A fund-raiser-type. Both seem to be quite friendly, and ready to play. BK has been quite generous to me again lately… good thing, because a number of other folks have been ticking her off, big time.


2nd life continues to impress, as do the people contained therein.


Moment of Lyric: (MP3)

battersea – how it is
it’s over – forget
memories full of chocolate
got to get over it – forget
your world is different than mine
got to get over it – got to forget
and sigurd is the one i don’t like
I’m afraid of him – I’ve got to forget
knocking on the blue water
it’s over – forget
praline and chocolate ice
got to get over it – forget
your world doesn’t match with mine
got to get over it – got to forget
and sigurd rules your friend’s life
I’m afraid of him – got to forget

Dude digs it

7727 – Nice start to the day.

Visited the club just long enough to snag the free buffet and get a nice hug from Sasha She’s now up to date about Magda – I usually update her weekly, but with the weather and my schedule, I haven’t been by the club in forever.


Nice loot bag as a side effect of the fishing tournament fund raiser. I got a backpack, ball cap, a little notepad-binder thingum and assorted pens, odds and end, and a tournament T-shirt. The bag is the best.. just the right size for commute stuff.


pano

a long morning shadow stitched on the way to the bus. – Broward and 3rd.


got all of my paperwork done… too much.. getting things ready for last quarter is tough.


Had a nice gab with the weezle… she’s got the google talk up and running smooth as silk. I hope she’s feeling better soon.


Spending a lot of quality time in 2nd life… HP has been quite a delightful hostess and all-around good egg. We toured “burning Life” and a few other very nifty locations.

6956 –

Walkabout was nice.. I got some needed chores done, and eyeballed some notebooks, as lappie’s feeling his age. 256 meg is lappie’s max, and the OS is getting too fat, and the HD too small.

I may get myself an early Christmas present sometime in the next month or so. The Averatec 3500 is looking like a winner. I’d prefer the pen to be mounted in a silo, rather than just on the side of the screen, but that’s a trivial concern next to it being a tablet-notebook that’s under $1000 after rebate.

I’ll see how I feel in a week or two.


Do any new cars have that little triangular window in the door? Strange nostalgia, seeing one recently.


Best line I’ve heard lately…

“A SUV with an American flag on it is like a whore wearing a rosary.”


Random scotto factoid: Lately, when I say the word nice, is sounds to me like “noice”.

Top-Earning Fictional Characters Quick list

Glowie on left, standard on right... I think that I’ll take a night shot of the glowing one later, for better detail.Ok… I have Zombies… the game is great. Very simple to play, turns go quickly, and it’s something right out of any classic zombie movie. The figures are the same size as army men (or mage knight, sans bases) and now I have many many little glow in the dark undead shamblers. As an added rule, I think I might make the glowies a little tougher to beat than the nons.

Total count… 100 regular gray zombies, 106 glowies. (Zombies2 expansion came with six glowies… and more goodies too… I’ve not tried the expansion out yet), Very nice artwork and the pawns (figures? sculpts? whatever. the little men) are very nice… the only disappointment is that all the zombies have the same pose. Limping along, one arm outstretched…stomach has fallen out, and you can see the spinal column through the middle. Oh, heck, lemme take a picture. There, I slapped it on the left. Newt’s already fond of batting them around… but he still prefers the twist ties. Good thing, too. I have a way of distracting him from hopping on the table, and making off with play pieces.

a rerun of night of the living dead, featuring two gorgeous young lovers, just made for the screen. An additional upside of this is that now if I’d like to make a night of the living dead, I can use my custom figures of myself and my sweetie to fend off literally *hundreds* of incoming zombies. In addition, the customs are the right size to use as personal markers in the game. (Or any game really… it’d work for monopoly / candyland or whatnot too…) I can add my mage knight zombies for some variety in poses, too..

I also picked up some artillery, speaking of mage knight. I got a pack of cannons, a stone thrower, and ballista. That should make things a mite more interesting on the field, next combat with ol’ Dave. I’m thinking about painting a few of them, too… just to mix it up, and add some detail… maybe in just all black / white / gray paints, though, to keep it in theme…

In other news, I have all the ingrediants to make that tasty stir fry for supper, now. I may cheat and make it for lunch. 🙂 Also, my clicker rings finally came in the mail today!

Cool paper models

I think I’m going to make the graveyard and crypt (#6 & 7) for a little Halloween diorama.

Long week… I’m glad I got to spend some time with my sweetie tonight… she really comforts and makes me feel nice, even when she doesn’t realize it.

Looking forward to a comfy weekend!

Newt trundled up atop the desk here earlier, and brought a snack with him…I quite like that he’s clever in some ways like that. (Better on the desk with me here than using my navel for a food-dish (which he’s also done before.)

I’m going to tuck in shortly… nighty night, dear journal.
