I’m so far behind on reading my friend’s lists… even the ones I give the most cursory of glances have slipped past. If something earthshaking/ground breaking happened, and I missed it… I’m sorry.

Am I the only one from whom the phrase ‘tea room’ especially ‘Russian tea room’ conjures up images of wacky 60’s TV personalities getting into situations?
Major Nelson, Major Heely… Lucy & Ethel, Darrin and Larry?
I’ve not seen the Patty duke show, or any sign of Dobie Gillis in ages, but somehow I think there were weird tea room episodes of those, too…
Men are responsible for the majority of human genetic mutations, according to a landmark publication in the scientific journal Nature. Researchers of the Human Genome Project discovered that the Y chromosome, found only in men, passes on genetic mutations twice as often as the X chromosome.

man shot with cigs –
An autopsy performed Monday by Cape May County Medical Examiner Elliot M. Gross determined that three cigarette butts penetrated Geisinger’s rib cage directly above his heart, causing his death.

And one local…. 🙂
When the United States invited the world to send its tired, its poor, its huddled masses yearning to breathe free, it did not mean everybody.
Asians, specifically, were excluded from citizenship during much of the time that the nation was welcoming immigrants from Europe.
And vestiges of that time remain embedded in places you wouldn’t expect to find them: the Florida Constitution, for one.
Tucked within a section of the state constitution is a provision that says Asian immigrants — who were not eligible for U.S. citizenship at one time — may be prohibited from owning property.

Apparently, the Dictator/Sitcom Character I most resemble here is – I guess that you are Dan Conner from Roseanne! (I just entered my own stats, and went to see what came up. )
I didn’t really watch the show. Am I like him? All I know is that he was played by John Goodman.
Gnite.
Valentine’s Day has officially started, and I’m in love. It’s a great feeling. I’m so happy that we have each other!
Let me be the first to wish Happiness and love on you today!
How Do I Love Thee?
Elizabeth Barrett Browning
How do I love thee?
Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.
I love thee to the level of every day’s
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.
I love thee freely, as men strive for right;
I love thee purely, as they turn from praise.
I love thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood’s faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints – I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life!
-and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.
Got my Valentine element in the mail today… will overnight it to her PO box tomorrow morning.
A pipe-smoking chimp singing the theme to sanford & son. you’re going to need flash.
I feel this way sometimes…
Oh, did I mention I love her?
I did? Well, Let me just reinforce that. 🙂
Hee hee…
My Hippie-Buddy Dave is Turning 30 in a couple of weeks…
So much for his old-man jokes. 🙂
*pondering a gift. What do you get a Boy who has everything? A sweet wife, a nice house, some great friends… I guess a party with lots of hugs. 🙂
Lost Empires … A great series… I saw the one on Trebuchets last night. 🙂
www.scottobear.com sounds like a fairy-tale version of the MST3k theme.
to me, anyhow. you can decide, if you like.
livejournal.com has a *VERY* pleasant one. my fave thus far.
sweetalyssm‘s home page sounds like a dramatic episode of Mannix. Listen!
Ya know what?
I’m really doing pretty well.
I’m in love with, and loved by quite possibly the most wonderful girl in the known universe.
I’ve got a sweet little babyhead Newton.
Three real world human friends whom I can rely on for *anything*.
All of which fell into my lap totally randomly. Better than winning the lotto, says I.
I’ve met some lovely people here on LJ, many that I’d love to take to coffee and gab with in meatspace. Very surprising to me is the remarkably high percentage of women (little sisters or daughters.. and one or two dear aunties) that are here…are there a lot more females on LJ, or am I just swimming in the XX chromosome area?
http://bfws7e.informatik.uni-erlangen.de/~kinderma/musinum/InternetMusicPlayer.cgi creates music based on your IP. mine, 209.118.209.114 was very soft and soulful. I may swipe the cgi. 🙂
I wanna go home and go to bed. No idea *why* I’m so sleepy. I just want to curl up and drowse, Newtie purring his mind-control vibrato, making me think of my beloved’s even breath in my ear.
Glad it’s not raining.. I’d be totally asleep by now.
Turty good, bunny bad
Remember that old fable of the tortoise and the hare? Basically, the faster hare is overconfident and loses a foot race to the slower, but steadier, tortoise. Somehow, the moral to this story is: “slow and steady wins the race.”
I beg to differ. The race was not won by the tortoise; it was lost by the hare. The moral should read: “don’t mess around when there’s stuff to be done.” Or something like that.
Okie! Got the rest of vagg out, it should be there by vallies day, except for you Canadians, of which there were a few! 🙂
Vagg’s been fun! (I *really* didn’t think I’d get them out in time.)
Now to pack up part B1, and prep it for shipping. 🙂
