When I say there is nothing I can say, imagine a deafening primal scream  :)


Huh?

I am waiting while Dragon Naturally Speaking for Vista downloads. It's a HUGE download, but it's worth it.  It takes awhile to train it, but it was my secretary for the last year or so at the old office.  I don't use it for letters, but for notes etc it's great. I can't wait to have it working again.  (Since I needed an updated version, I can keep the old one on my XP at home)

I might do "The Bunny Hop", though.

I might indulge in "Ballin' the Jack" (TCB, sledgejaw...hush!).

I could even muster up a "Charleston".

But in general, I won't dance.

That leaves the racecourse wide open for me to jump in . . .

So tell me, is it "Just JACK?

"First you put your two knees close up tight
Then you sway them to the left, then you sway them to the right
Step around the floor kind of nice and light
Then you twist around and twist around with all your might,
Stretch your loving arms straight out into space,
Then you do the Eagle Rock with style and grace.
Swing your foot way 'round then bring it back.
Now that's what I call Ballin' the Jack."

My baby's coming home.
I hope that she won't fail because I feel so good, I feel so good.
You know I feel so good, feel like balling the jack.

"To "ball" a "jack" refers possibly to the action of risking a shot in "Boules", or Bocce or its sister game Petanque. The jack in either case is the smaller ball for which the goal of the game is to either throw your team's ball closest to it, or to knock away your opponent's ball. To hit the target ball to another location, or to "ball the jack", is to alter the focus of the gameplay. To do so requires great accuracy, and assuming the game is scored for money instead of points (it is a drinking game, and takes skill and a bit of luck as well), takes risk as well, for in double or triple team play, you only get one shot (one ball per player). So to "ball the jack" is to risk a miss, and a wasted shot, at something that is really important to you."

Now if you look up railway know-how on http://madisonrails.railfan.net/lewman10.html you will see that to fix a crooked rail you had one person sit on the track and site along it to see where it needed to be straightened (lining the track), then two men would put jacks at an angle against the inside ball of the rail and lever it until it was straight. Then you had to shovel ballast back in under the ties and tamp it down. The ball of the rail is the curved part going up to the flattened surface on top of the rail. The jack had a groove across the top that fit against the ball so it wouldn't slip off.

According to the Oxford Dictionary of Slang, the expression dates from 1670 and may come from the gambling expression "set on cinque and sice," which means betting everything on throwing a five and six at dice.

We must be in the minority.  I was so so on PUSHING DAISIES.  Keith and my brother found it annoying and turned it off.  Keith just left the room about 3/4 of the way through and returned for the ending.

I totally agree.  There is only so much disbelief you can suspend. ;)

Keith said something similar today about PUSHING DAISIES. ;D

And, on a t-shirt:

Compost Happens.

Keith purchased a t-shirt like that nine years ago, when we first moved here and he was planting his vegetable garden.

Time to get dinner started once more.

Der Brucer found a couple of nice-looking lamb chops yesterday, and mentioned that he'd like steamed red potatoes with parsley.  Add to that, perhaps, some brussels sprouts with a bit of balsamic.
