First off, what was going on nine months ago? Did the power go off or something? There are EIGHT babies up in the maternity ward!
Second, for the love of Jesus, Moses, Allah, Buddha, Thor and all the rest, pleaseOHpleaseOHplease do *NOT* name your son Diesel. You already did? Oh dear. I hope your insurance covers psychotherapy treatments. He'll need 'em... especially around high school. We'll be seeing you and him I'm sure.
Third, I need a day off. I am so freakin' tired. This DST crap is well, crap.
Yesterday I drew and began painting a cherry blossom with the kanji symbol for "Life". The Samurai held the sakura blossom very cherished. It symbolized their idea of how life is so fragile. It's beautiful and lovely but a gust of wind and it's gone. Very appropriate for the current situation. I may do Mt. Fuji if I can figure out how to do the posterization correctly.
While painting, I was listening to a program on the Science Channel called "Ten Ways" (a British show). The two I watched were fabulous! I watched "Ten Ways to Contact a Ghost" and "Ten Ways to Be Abducted By Aliens". They really don't tell you how to do these things - but more a list of ten things people say you can do which is usually followed by scientists explaining why this can or cannot work. I must admit, the funniest part of the Ghost episode was their rendition of the railroad tracks in San Antonio, TX, where a busload of school children were smashed to oblivion by a train. First, their rendition was to show a Hot Wheels size school bus get hit by a Lionel train. CLASSIC! Second, the county historian is a cantankerous old bitty who tells the story with such sarcasm it's hilarious. Third, she ended her story with something to the effect that, "this is the LAST damn time I'm coming out here to these God-forsaken railroad tracks and telling this stupid story. There never was a school bus train wreck! There is a three-percent grade here! That's it! Now I'm going in. It's hot out here." As to the Alien episode, the number one (OO! SPOILERS!) was that UFOs do not come from outer space. Really. They come from INSIDE the earth! Again, really. All we have to do is find a cave system or tunnel down and we'll find out the truth. OK. And who is responsible for these UFOs? (Wait for it...) Why, the Nazis, of course! I nearly shit myself. ROTFLMAO The show even had an actor dressed as a 100 year old Hitler directing a UFO. OMG! I know people have zany ideas but that's a keeper, there, buddy. I wish I could have stayed up to watch some of the other episodes.
