Per Iggy’s request, I’ll be drinking more beer. Look forward to it.

wow…it’s been all week and I’ve only posted once! methinks I’ve been working too much cuz I know I haven’t been drinking enough beer, and still no time to blog.

hello again! After a wonderful holiday, spent largely behind the wheel on the open highways (well, pretty much just I-5) I’m back and happy and rested and busily re-exhausting myself. N and I went down to visit the grandparents (dad’s parents) and had a jolly time, though there was disappointment that my bro flaked out on the thxgiving festivities. Oh, well, life goes on. My grandad gave me a quick refresher on making peanut brittle, so once I score a nice hunk ‘o marble, I’ll be smearing candy over it.

Fill in the blank. If those people came by my perfectly manicured lawn and took a crap in it in the middle of the day like they did to the frickin Queen of England I’d be extraordinarily pissed. But, while my lawn is nowhere near perfectly manicured, I’ve been reading up on such a thing, and have an idea of what a massive chore requiring planning, knowledge, and perseverance it is to maintain an exquisite garden.

I generally spell pretty alright. But I’ve found that with spelling in blogs, my best search engine draws happen when I mispell. Take this article. It was my first real draw. It was brief and lame, but they flocked to it. And now this one, that I wrote July 1st has been my top googlor ever since then by a long shot. Unfortunately, I find that sad on many levels. How many kids are there thinking they need ritalin because their friends are on it and they’re sucking down sugar water and sugar cereal and, like me, can’t even spell it.

lots to do, and heading out for thxgiving soon, so like last week I’ll probably be light blogging till next monday.

Went and saw the Polyphonic Spree the other night. It was a really cool show, with a wide variety of acts. The opener was an acordian player who sounded somewhat like Meatloaf, and told tales like Jack Black, while I probably wouldn’t rock out to it in the car, I quite enjoyed his set. He played an amazing We Are the Champions cover (most tunes were original). The second band, The Sleepy Jackson, was fantastic.

He’s going pro, to play with DC United next year. And so continues the media’s facination with speculating on the very young. Good luck, Freddy, make a good thing of it.

argh! I’ve gotten on someone’s happy list, and they are spamming the heck out of my comments. Take it to Hawaii, they love it there, jerks! But anyway, I’m trying to figure out a solution. One is to have a little image with some text in it, and then you, the commenter would need to type that text into a field, like a password, but public, just something the spambots can’t replicate.
