And one I would blog, but I'll defer it to you if you want it:
"A COMEDIAN died after accidentally overdosing on laughing gas while watching computer porn, an inquest heard."

Ever notice how when you go to a restaurant, there is always someone who orders the "Herb crusted honey glazed salmon" but they pronounce it like SALLLLmon. It always make me think of Mr. Rushdie, and then I want to throttle them and say, I'm going to declare a fatwa on your azz if you can't pronounce the fish!
Just a random thought. Happy weekend Yacs! :)

I went back and re-read the article I was basing that post on, back when he was not allowed into the US - I did not remember all of the article correctly - It was his openly voiced support for Rushdie's death and his financial contributions to HAMAS - kind of running together in my late night memory.
So let me correct that -
MORAL support for the death of Salman Rushdie
Finanacial support for the death of Israel (go read the Hamas Charter)
I like to be specific when I can....

Actually saw them open for REM "back in the day" and they did that song - that was just a few months before Natalie Merchant made a public anouncement about that.
I actually liked Cat Stevens' music - crazy world....

It was the "Work Tour" - you're old like me - LOLzers...
It was a good show though wasn't it?

Ahh the good ol' days...
I saw them in Charleston WV same venue as the SRV show - great place for music. The local Philharmonic played there as well.
I used to work in a little bar in WV called the Empty Glass. In 91 when REM was not touring they did Mountain Stage (NPR radio show from WV) and Peteer Buck came in and the place went nuts.
A little later Billy Bragg showed up. We begged them to play for us but they were just tired and looking to wind down so we tried to act cool.
People would never believe what a great music scene Charleston WV was in the late 80's early 90's..
I saw Ray Charles in an outdoor concert once down by the river.
Way back when...

I think this pic is a stab at the Jersey Diva that was giving Staal the 2 handed finger wave from the first row right after his goal. That's what I mean't by classy Jersey fans. That cougar is all over the news this morning. She was not happy!! Go Canes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

John's cremation was today so I said a little prayer. I picked out a beautiful urn for him and another for his dad. It weighed heavily on his heart that he still had not taken care of his dad. He still grieved over him and unsure what he wanted to do. So I took care of both of them. I may go back and get another for me so that evrything will be ready when my time comes.
Anyway just wanted ya'll to know that I am hanging in there. Today I was wondering what do you do after 18 years with someone, being alone again. I am sure that I will find my way.

Cam has been amazing. The game last night was amazing. Not sure how we keep winning games like that, OT, last second, etc., but just going to enjoy the ride.

This is the cancer. And to condone it, or to try to justify, just allows it to spread.

Real LOL - Out of context is what goLO seems to be all about - and it was the only thing I could up with on short notice - my spontaneity isn't really all that spontaneous lately.

Dan, here's another bookmark for you. Keep in touch. Golo has just become too romper room for me. It's either all guns (and heck, I'm a staunch 2nd Amendment), all democrat or all republican (when both of them roil my stomach) or all flatulence all the time... seeking some fresh air..

zero tolerance = zero thought - it's the easy way out, to me.
Some where along the line the adults stopped 'growing up'.
