Like MacArthur, I have returned. But now I must go and play poker. Hopefully the generosity I experienced last time is repeated.
Going to Kansas City...Kansas City, here I come...
During my time in KC, I will visit the family in Iowa, mainly to see my niece for the first time. But now I get to help my brother fix his house after a tree fell on it and my sister-in-law's car during a storm. Damn, I was really planning on sitting around and watching the corn...

is running around the com desk, hunting something. I got the flashlight and see that it's a little brown spider, so I killed it. Now is pissed at me for ruining his little game.

Pop up book for children?! That made me laugh far to hard and long!
Poor cloud! You took away his little buddy!

My medula oblongata hurts...but that's what I get for staying up 24 hrs. I drove home safely after nearly falling asleep at the wheel twice, then fed the cat, and collapsed into bed. When I opened my eyes it was 4 am.
Watching The Longest Day now, The Enemy Below is next. Better hurry and shower so I don't miss that one..

(grin) I keep forgetting you understand how hell like the weather is. Yes, I do try to latch on to someone bigger. Last year I had to have escorts because the wind would blow me across the compound. I have been blown off stairwells, and blown down hills. I keep waiting for the one that will hit me just right and take me down to the Ice shelf.
Glad to hear you are safe and sound. Have a lovely day!

Can't sleep, have to be at work by 9 anyways. Won't get to sleep till I get home 10 1/2 hours later. I should be tired by then. Good thing it's Memorial Day, which means AMC is playing war movies. Stalag 17 is on, Patton will be later. I hope they don't cut out all the obscenities on Patton, it ruins the opening speech.

Both good movies actually.
Hope you have a lovely day!

John Carpenter'sThe Thing
I remember seeing this movie when I was a kid and it scared the hell out of me. The last time I watched it was when I was working up in Barrow, Alaska. If you haven't seen the movie, it's about a shape-shifting alien...

you can predict the minneapolis weather all the way from WA?
One....last.....graveyard...then it's super caffeine fun time to get myself acclimated to working the day shift. In two weeks, I have to fly to Kansas City, so I got myself a nice thick book to take my mind off the thoughts of plane crashes or being involved in someone's matyrdom. It's called "Half a wing, three engines and a prayer." by Brian D. O'Neill. I am...

That sounds like a grand time for you then! It is nice when you can mix a little bit of both. It keeps the pace livelier.

The sun is shining in Seattle today, the wind is calm, the temperatures warm. Bleh....where's the clouds and rain?

Glad to see someone else understands the trauma of static.
Not my computers favorite thing either.
Sun shine? Dear god! Run for cover!

Nostalgic Moment:
When I was a kid growing up on the farm in Iowa, our next door neighbor (1/2 mile down the road) owned a lot of the fields surrounding our farm. He rotated between soybeans and corn every year, and would hire me and my brother to walk his bean fields, cutting down any weeds or rogue corn. For his corn, he would hire...

Good advice on all counts!
As to scaring your chickens...I think it would startle the bejeesus out of me as well. I know small planes land on houses.

Last night was good It's $10 to get into the game, and I came out with $14. The top guy got $16, so not bad for only my second time playing with this group. Unfortunately, I had to leave for work when they started the tournament. Question now is...what should I blow this money on?
