Mama I'm Coming Home - Ozzy Osbourne

Nowhere Man - The Beatles

One of the more frightening things I have heard on TBF. :) That stupid song from "Driveshaft" on Lost is burning into my skull. "You all everybody" over and over again. Maybe even ABBA would be an upgrade. Then again . . .

My reading was cut short this month by the start of school and the watching of Lost Season 1 on DVD with the wife. But... Life, the Universe and Everything - Douglas Adams The End of Poverty - Jeffery Sachs Yes Man - Danny Wallace The Postman - David Brin The Communist Manifesto - Marx and...

The first one I can remember was A Wrinkle in Time. I think I was in the third grade. I'm sure I didn't get most of it. The apocryphal story of my first reading took place in a public restroom with my grandfather when I started to read the grafitti on the walls (I was 3). Apparently, some of...

My Bible (1063 pages) loses out (in terms of length) to Battlefield Earth by L. Ron Hubbard (1066) and Les Miserables (my translation is 1374).

Dream by The Cobalt Season Good stuff for a Monday morning.

I found myself thinking, " What an amazing thing, to have an ..." Then it was time to move on.

No fireworks here. Drought + 50mph winds = ban on all things potentially flammable. So my vote would have to be, anywhere else.

The wife and I are getting away to Kansas City for three days. Three changes of clothes Four books with the intent of buying more there. Guilty as charged

The Essential Miles Davis, Disc 1

The key to the film is to not watch it alone. I went with four other guys to see in in the theater and there were three others in the same movie, all who came by themselves. By the end of the first 45 minutes, all of the solo watchers had left. The five of us howled all the way through it. One...

It went very well. And I am more than glad it's over. Now I just need to get to my requisite shmoozing. The department is pretty competitive so the key is a combination of scores and relationships. Time to pull the clubs out of the garage. btw - thanks to all for the well wishes and good...
