I still have the Frito Banditio theme popping up into my brain here and there.


Weird about the lag in the picture posts.. repeated itself twice, about 2 hours after the original post.I’ll have to make a point of waiting a bit longer before re-sending.


The people of Hialeah are idiots. (See the political record for the last 24 years.) A long term case of “we’d rather have corrupt criminals we know than a possible unknown quantity”.


Big Kahuna’s B’day today… maybe that’s why she had a case of the grumps yesterday. She’ll be 67 today, I think, and I figure that she’s got a solid two decades ahead of her, at least. Sadly, I don’t see more than a decade (and that’s probably generous) for her husband though.


Rhode Island was due back on Monday, and as of end of day yesterday still hadn’t come back. Rumors flying over the office of her quitting, but I doubt it. My suspicions are that she’s just stretching it out as far as possible.


I’m wondering what to do with my vacation.


Muslim Mona quit tech-work yesterday… I guess her real-world job, plus family, plus health just didn’t allow for four days a month. She’ll be missed… was probably the most competent tech I had. En’s really solid, too…only a couple of boo-boos here and there. Phoenix’s getting her first training today at 1pm, barring schedule issues.


Growing out the goat for a full beard again in prep to be a bit of a Santa for December.

You scored as Bebop (from Cowboy Bebop). Hope you don’t mind being anime. Your style just fits perfect with the crew of the Bebop. Life is tough and your crew knows it, but you will find a way to survive. You always do. Now if only Faye would quit gambling all your money away.

GeotargetWoo… the King Kong marketing machine is in full swing… it’s going to be a Giant Gorilla Christmas!


I rather dig the Beijing Olympic Mascots.


Currently a bit pissed at work. only Carl Douglas and Giant Apes can cheer me up.

Moment of Lyric: mp3

Everybody was kung-fu fighting
Those cats were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit frightning
But they fought with expert timing

They were funky China men from funky Chinatown
They were chopping them up and they were chopping them down
It’s an ancient Chineese art and everybody knew their part
From a feint into a slip, and kicking from the hip

Everybody was kung-fu fighting
Those cats were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit frightning
But they fought with expert timing

There was funky Billy Chin and little Sammy Chung
He said here comes the big boss, lets get it on
We took a bow and made a stand, started swinging with the hand
The sudden motion made me skip now we’re into a brand knew trip

Everybody was kung-fu fighting
Those cats were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit frightning
But they did it with expert timing

(repeat)..make sure you have expert timing
Kung-fu fighting, had to be fast as lightning

GeotargetI’d like a comfy linen/cotton blend suit, and a snappy gray fedora. Not sure where that urge for a summer suit in November came from.


I can’t watch TV shows that place in hospitals, at least not around the anniversary of my father’s death or his birthday. I had an extended crying jag last night when I remembered that his birthday is coming up in about 2 weeks. First time I’ve really cried for quite a while. Ultimately cleansing, but think I hurt my side a little bit as a result. Newt was a great comfort to me.

I miss my dad. I miss the way my brother was when he was 12. I think that I get along with my mother better these days than I ever had as a kid.


The office has decided not to pay salaried folks for time away from work due to Hurricane Wilma… I’m going to point them to Hurricane Wilma Disaster Unemployment Assistance. To determine eligibility for Wilma DUA (or standard unemployment benefits), start by contacting the Florida Agency for Workforce Innovation (Florida unemployment office) or filing an unemployment claim through same by 11/28/2005. For information about other types of Hurricane Wilma disaster assistance, browse the FEMA and FDEM sites.

I’m safe… I worked every day save for 2, and those two days I gave training and tech walk-through to our rep in Texas. I think that everyone else save for ECN and myself will end up getting docked a little more than week’s pay. (I wonder if the Big Kahuna will cut herself, too?)

GeotargetI could go for a moon cake. I missed the Moon Festival about a month or two back. I may start visiting the Morikami more often again, now that I’ll be a bit closer.


Thought I saw Pam M. yesterday, but I don’t think it was her. Hard to say, since it’s been a decade or so… but I don’t think that she’s the type to ever wear tank tops and shorts in public… but who knows? A lot can happen to a person in twelve-ish years. If it had been her, I’d have liked to say hello, and have my curiosity satisfied a bit. I wonder if moving closer to the Boca area will cause me to stumble across more folks from the past? The D’s are in Georgia now, and who can say where much of the rest of that crew has toddled off to.


Well, I’ve watched the Doom Patrol/ BoE episodes of Teen Titans.. I think they did a decent job. The Brain was a little Dalek-y, but that’s reasonable. What I wasn’t expecting was a regular voice for Cliff, or the Steven Wright dry blandness of Larry. Rita was fine, and Mento was the mostly-jerk as I recall him to be. I think that Cliff’s voice as a normal gruff guy was better than a robo-sounding one. Made him a bit more human. I wonder if the Chief will show up later on?


Doing what I can to prevent world and local politics from getting me down. It’s hard. I thought the lesser of two evils was bad, four elections ago, and it’s only getting worse every time. I’ve heard from people that blindly follow Hillary Clinton, just because she’s a woman and a democrat. I’ve never seen her give a good speech…I’d have thought a lawyer would have some solid public speaking skills. She does not inspire trust. She’s not a credible military leader, and I don’t see her pulling troops out of Iraq anytime soon, regardless. I think that she could win an election in ’08, but it would be for the wrong reasons… and liberal dems would get mighty pissed, once the dust settled.

I feel that a woman or a black person could become president. (I think a military background for either would make it easier for the American Public to accept them)

I’m sure in my heart of hearts that a publicly self-proclaimed gay or atheist could not possibly win the office at this point in time.

I’m rambling. It doesn’t matter who gets elected, the giant iguanas that actually run this country wouldn’t let a prez implement any real change anyhow.


Hm, fairly well-balanced, I guess. Fun/Family/Health. Though I put a high value on love. life pref quiz

K&K Mime Ministries – Hard-hitting gospel ministry through mime.

Heck, I know I’d check it out, but I’m a little off that way. It’s got to be better than Bibleman.


“Strange but true”-sounding lie of the day: In 103 AD, the Roman emperor Clavicus had a temple built to worship his favorite type of pastry.


Why didn’t *anyone* tell me that the Doom Patrol showed up this season on the Teen Titans? (Plus, they’re fighting the Brotherhood of Evil!) That was my big hope once I’d heard that the cartoon was launched! Once again, I thank bittorrent for speedy access to TV I’ve missed.

7916 – Rock, Paper, Chainsaws

GeotargetWent to the poorhouse with Liz, had a Guinness and a Strongbow for “dessert”. Good stuff. We chit-chatted about clowns, strippers, co-workers, people watching and events seen in a parking garage.



Monkey beer, monkey beer.
Pour it in your ear, it’ll last all year!

Open it up and watch it get empty!
