It wet and cold and miserable---a great day to stay inside and get stuff done!

I just went out to buy xmas package labels at the nearby 5 and dime---it turns out they have wonderful stuff and I ended up getting a lot of xmas shopping done, especially for all the kids...

 I think tonight I'll watch from the SHAKESPEARE RETOLD collection the MACBETH set in a restaurant (Macbeth is the head chef).  It should be an intereasting reflection of TOP CHEF. The other two play adaptations, which I'll watch next week, are MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM and TAMING OF THE SHREW


I bet that would be interesting. A novel idea and most curious... :)

Yesterday, DBF recieved his hood at the NDSU Winter Commencement. They had a large telly screen showing the graduates on the stage. He looked nervous. The poor dear....

It has been a low-keyed day here in Johnston SC.  The big event of the day was going to the P-K Restaurant for lunch and having burgers and fries.

It started raining around 3 p.m. and hasn't let up yet.  It's also much, much cooler.

Yes, I think "winter" has caught up to me here on the east coast.

I wouldn't even mind "seeing" a little snow (that's a "little", mind you) just for fun.

Question: Does anyone have the link for a couple of sites that Ben mentioned a while ago for editing music?  I lost all of my links when I had the puter reformatted a couple of months ago. I believe one was called Audacity.

How was your trip Ron?

Well...if you mean the flight on Wednesday, then it went off without a hitch save a slight scheduling delay out of Cinicinnati that had me arriving in Columbia SC about 50 minutes later than we were supposed to arrive.

Friday, we made a trip north to Spartanburg SC to visit with a cousin, have a nice lunch and place flowers on several gravesites.  We stopped to shop on the way back (Bed, Bath & Beyond and CostCo).

But...the "trip" continues through December 26th.  Many new and exotic things are bound to happen between now and then.

I'll keep the forum updated as I recover from and reflect upon them.

Can you stand it?  My mother is frying more chicken tonight.  She fried half a batch Thursday evening, and then asked me today if I wanted the rest of it tonight.

Our December summer has ended as it's not getting out of the 40s today. I did enjoy it while it lasted. But this certainly will do wonders to get me more in the holiday spirit.
So!  You really WOULDN'T like to spend Christmas on Christmas Island!

Heard  this today at the grocery store:

Rusty Chevrolet by Da Yoopers.... (Think Jingle Bells)

1. DASHING THROUGH THE SNOW
IN MY RUSTY CHEVROLET
DOWN THE ROAD I GO
SLIDING ALL THE WAY
I NEED NEW PISTON RINGS
I NEED SOME NEW SNOW TIRES
MY CAR IS HELD TOGETHER
BY A PIECE OF CHICKEN WIRE
CHORUS:
RUST AND SMOKE THE HEATER'S BROKE
THE DOOR JUST BLEW AWAY
I LIGHT A MATCH TO SEE THE DASH
AND THEN I START TO PRAY
THE FRAME IS BENT THE MUFFLER WENT
THE RADIO IT'S OK
OH WHAT FUN IT IS TO DRIVE
THIS RUSTY CHEVROLET

2. I WENT TO THE IGA
TO GET SOME CHRISTMAS CHEER
I JUST PASSED UP MY LEFT FRONT TIRE
AND ITS GETTING HARD TO STEER
SKIDDING DOWN THE HIGHWAY
RIGHT PAST THE NEGAUNEE COPS
I HAD TO DRAG MY SWAMPERS
TO GET THE CAR TO STOP

(REPEAT CHORUS)

3. BOUNCING THROUGH THE SNOWDRIFTS
IN A BIG BLUE CLOUD OF SMOKE
PEOPLE LAUGH AS I DRIVE BY
I WONDER WHAT'S THE JOKE
I GOT TO GET TO SHOPKO
TO PICK UP THE LAYAWAY
CAUSE SANTA CLAUS IS COMING SOON
IN HIS BIG OLD RUSTY SLEIGH

(REPEAT CHORUS)
