Huntin' season.

Actually, it is deer season right now. my boss and his family are out hunting, as are several co-workers and a bunch of extended family. I guess I'll have too wait and hunt mechanical reindeer.

You are simply Saffy. The polar opposite of your
fast-living, wild-child mother, you see Patsy
as a parasite, living off Edina and corrupting
her. You have a strong sense of morals and
shockingly dowdy dress sense, but no boyfriend
- well no one you would introduce your mother
to. You are currently working on your career as
a playwright.

Perhaps the plan was better on paper than in reality.

My cousin Claudia has come to town with her Son, Evan. Tomorrow night I'm supposed to baby sit Evan. I was thinking this would be a perfect chance to go see Wallace and Grommet: Curse Of The Wererabbit.

Last night hanging out with Evan was an eye opening experience. He's in preschool, and can not sit still, be quiet, or anything that would make me think a movie is a good idea. Legos are fine, but I get three pieces into anything and he want's what ever I'm working on because it's cooler. Cartoons bore him, if he's willing to watch them. "Mom says I can't watch that." "Mom hasn't approved that cartoon." "Mom says hasn't seen that cartoon, so I can't watch it." Well, Bucko, Mom ain't here, she went home Monday, and I approve this cartoon! :-P He lasts about 5 minutes on a video game, and wants to quit. Even drawing with florescent markers under a blacklight lasted about 3 minutes. The fog machine 10 minutes. The pitch shifter on the mixer, with a mic, about 4 minutes. And his bed time is normally 8pm, we let him stay up till 8:30, and he exhibited his mastery of the word "No!" while crying at the top of his lungs.


Yeah. A movie. Having to sit still, quietly, for an hour and a half. Great idea. Like that will ever happen. :-P

Plan B: Take him to a horror movie, where people will be fidgiting and scream anyway, give him nightmares for months, and never have to baby sit again.... :-P

I saw this on a mailing list. Did this happen while I was in Peru? WTF?!?!?! Is this real?!?!?!

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Tommy Lee was burned Wednesday when a pyrotechnics stunt went wrong at a Motley Crue concert in Casper, Wyo.

Lee was taken to a hospital for treatment, but wasn't badly hurt, said Sgt. Doug Beran of the Casper Police Department. Beran declined to discuss details of Lee's injuries, citing privacy considerations.

The 43-year-old drummer, who was injured toward the end of the band's set, played one more song before the concert was cut short, Beran said.

Tom Morton, a reporter for the Casper Star-Tribune, said Lee appeared to be injured when sparks began flying as he swung above the stage suspended from a wire, back and forth among several drum sets.

Another witness, Del Kinswoman, described the pyrotechnics as ROMAN CANDLES.

I'll be in the bathroom smoking, in rememberence. :-(

Nevermind, I'm an idiot. I'll still be in the bathroom smoking, though. :-P

The Smoking Gun has some corospondence between Miers and Bush. While a lot of people are commenting on the mutual admiration the two have, I'm just wondering who the hell can read George's hand writeing...

Any guesses what you push to change tracks, adjust the volume, etc?
