An air raid siren at 1PM on the first Saturday of the month can mean only one thing:
THE RUSSIANS ARE COMING, THE RUSSIANS ARE COMING!!!
By God those heathen Commie bastards will never take me! Better dead than Red.

I have returned to the snowless Winter Wonderland. Joy. No mail, no messages on my machine. I should go on vacation more often.
CO was neat. Not only was my Christmas shopping snowed out for two days (three feet at my parents' house!
), but I saw neither hide nor hair of my sister's idiot beau. I even got to watch all three hours of...

Tomorrow I head out to CO for a week. I hear there's snow out there!
Tonight my starter died. No big deal, I'll just rebuild it in the bank parking lot, right? WRONG. I fragged the damn thing. There wasn't a single intact part at the rear of the motor. Brushes, holders, commutator--all destroyed. Luckily there are four auto parts stores nearby. Unluckily, not a...

Merry XMAS!

happy santa day!
I am listening to KTCL's "E-leven" (or, as I knew it when I lived in CO & WY, "Electronica @ Eleven"). Oh how I have missed it so.
Technology is good, yes?

I don't get it.
When they switched in October 2003, their justification was, "The old pink and grey looked too much like an Easter basket."
Well done, SG. Now it looks like the Easter bunny threw up. Kudos on the improvement.

Hows the house coming?
nirbhao:
thank you
Tomorrow I head to NY for the annual SYH & Gramma Thanksgiving Extravaganza. Wednesday through Monday. Saved myself $70 on airfare that way. That's like two-and-a-half days' mortgage!
In other news, I have updated my house pics. My floor looks spiffy. The rest of the house...not so much.

It's an oh-two. But good guess.

I love what you did with the backyard lawn. The brown walls are icky. Glad you're keeping the bathroom tile because it looks decent and why put money into that when you could put it into something else? Also, It's SO good that you're getting rid of the yellow with that deep purple. Yech. 
Oh, and wood floors are kuhl. LOL Cool beans on the whole project. Now I'm totally siked because I can take a place that sucks and turn it into something good. (You know, when I've got a high paying job ). Keep the transformation pictures coming. This is like the most exciting thing I've seen since my few moments with HGTV! And I LOVED HGTV.

Well, Friday night I gutted more of my basement & planned the the renovations of the big room in the basement.
Saturday I bought the things required (and some not required) to complete the renovations of the laundry room, workshop, and basement bathroom. Since I still had a few hours before I had to get on the road...

Thanx for the b-day wishes! 
salura:
i don't think that's physically possible, but thanks.
I found my liquor today. It's been a very dry couple of weeks. NOW, however, it is very, very wet. Yay boobs!...er...booze!
(The polyurethane fumes ain't helping. Only one more coat to go! Then I can do the green bedroom & the living room.

(If and/or when I find my camera cable, I'll post progress pics.)

There is nothing quite so disconcerting as driving through a construction zone in the wee hours of the morning while thinking:
I hope I'm on the right side of the cones this time.

one of my customers once explained to me in detail how he learned from experience that every sixth construction barrel is filled with sand instead of water. (sigh)

Makes me feel old too....I was probably in 10th or 11th grade at that point.
Have you ever heard "Smells Like Queer Spirit" by Pansy Division? Now that's a fun cover.
As for Sunset Blvd....damn straight I'll be there. Tiffany's working, she's a lame ass like that.
