J & B, for only the finest in rare distilled hangovers. (blended hangover, not single malt) Ouchie. Drank way too much last night. (see previous night's article). What's your favorite hangover cure?  I'm trying ibuprofen, lots of water, and a hot bath. Hair of the dog is out right now, it'd probably cause major hurlage, plus I finished the bottle anyways. w00t. Yours in mild agony, nbs

So, I'm blasted on about seven or eight shots of J & B rare (it doesn't take much, i'm a teetotaler, also, how often do you get to use an ampersand?), and I'm blogging. Good idea, right? And in other news, my new furnace works so-so. Orange hot very quickly (bout 15,1600 degrees, but not yellow dammit. Bout 1900, see article from aug 31, 05 or 06), poured some lead, failed to melt copper, and forged a kick-ass chisel out of grounding rod with a sweet copper sheath, and similarly mixed cop...

Why is this in humor? I don't know. Which humor is it? Don't know that either, maybe bile? Did not accomplish much today. Joy and I have been having trouble, so today was kind of a take it easy day. The fourth went well, set off beaucioup amounts of pretty pretty type fireworks. (would you believe bang bang types are illegal in Washington?) Other coolness is going on, got some yarn, although haven't started to knit anything yet, and a distortion pedal for my electric guitar, but coole...

Finally starting back up on the running today. Saw a lot of cool stuff (you always do, and it's the frickin' 4th). Hundred year old houses, cat on the peak of a third story roof, etc. And then?   About two hundred yards up the street this little wren or some such is being chased by a crow. w00t. While the drama unfolds, I'm running along, when a dozen other wrens come swooping down and drive off the crow. Cool beans, getting all nature channel up in here, and such. Exce...

That's right boys and girls, today's episode of name your favorite empire focuses exclusively on the country of Iraq! Me, I favor ancient Ctesiphon.......mmmm Ctesiphon, where the women are strong, the men are good looking, and the children are left alone if they run faster than the goats. What's your favorite? There's so many to pick from. What now makes up Iraq has been part of/conquered by CTESIPHON , (of course), Sumeria, Akkadia, the Medes (or one group of the Persians), the Chaldean...

I. Got. My. First. ELECTRIC GUITAR!!!!!! YAYA!!! That's it. It's frickin' late. Except, I'm thinking of starting a fund to send Col Gene hobby stuff, maybe buy him a guitar. I don't usually write articles to flame bloggers specifically, but damn, this johnny one-note stuff is just killing me and I'm grumpy the last week or so. I dunno, maybe a Save the Gene fund is a bad idea? If we can't save enough for hobby stuff ( a different hobby anyways) maybe we can save enough for some therapy and...
