It was 45 yrs ago today

That I was ejected into this world in Santa Monica California. 1961, a different era and different world.

A good half way point today, many of my Grandparents generation lived into their late 90's. We will see what 20+ yrs of semi-abuse will do to my longetivity.

As for today the Godz were kind to me and I don't have to work till 430, and I have the house alone, a rare commodity in my world during the school year.

Ok so what happened to daily postings? 1) I don't have something to say every day? (not likely if you know me). 2) I'm already bored with this blogging thing (not likely as my attention span is a bit better than that) NO it is 3) NO bloody time!!. More later today. Somebody has to do something, and it's just incredibly pathetic that it has to be us. -- Jerry Garcia, (of the Grateful Dead)

Saturday Night and Sunday Saturday Night Dinner and Martini's Our dinner at Bamboo Asian Fusion was very good. This place was a bog standard "Hibachi cooking table" restaurant, as well as the best of the fine dining at the Paradisus.

I started the night with a Coconut Martini, which was actually quite good as a starter drink. I had another at the dinner, but the sweetness was a bit much so I switched to regular dry Vodka Martini's. This was a mistake because five or so later.. well I was hungover the next day. In the mean time we had a really fun time after dinner hanging out with lots of Liza's friends. You will even find a picture of one of the women we were hanging with smoking a cigar on the Photo Bucket site . Another lovely night in Paradise. Sunday - ATV ride and the Closing dinne

It's been raining for three days straight now. The weekend was very nice however, warm and semi-sunny, we did up the fall leaves and repainted the front porch. Changed the color too, it was battleship grey and now it is Aircraft Carrier Grey. :-) We created like 10 Leaf bags and that was after we gathered a lot of the leaves around the base of the house. Liza learned this trick from the folks in the more rural areas of NYS while out on her routes for work. This is supposed to insulate the house during the winter better. Apparently they don't get rid of the fall leaves until Spring time. We shall see. My clever quotes are brought to me each day by the Quote of the Day mailing list which can be found over on Topica . Topica is nice, it is an alternative to YahooGroups and is much less intrusive. Unfortunately it is much less known and therefor has much less available content. This is where I host a private discussion group consisting of some of my dear friends
