We're safe
The tornadoes that struck the St Louis area were fortunately not near me. We live in South St Louis County. The twisters were all in North County, about 15 miles away. We had hail and strong winds, but nothing real bad ( Read more... ) -
LJ question
Hey everyone. I have an LJ user question that I can't figure out the answer from the FAQ. How does one prevent someone who added you as a friend from reading your journal? You would think it would be easy to block someone you don't want from reading your journal. -
Sorry iPhone owners, but I find this hysterical
The iPhone software has a glitch where if you have an alarm set for next Monday it won't go off. Seems the alarm has a bit of difficulty adjusting to the switch back from daylight savings time.

It's been a few days, so I have some catching up to do on this meme
Day 16. A song that you used to love but now hate
This is an update. In the last few days I remembered a song that perfectly fits this: Come On Eileen by Dexy's Midnight Runners. When I first heard this it was a refreshingly different song from all the New Wave of 1983. I even bought it as a 45. Don't know if I still have it. But I can't stand ( Read more... ) -
Song meme (part ?)
Day 15. A song that describes you
Imagine by John Lennon. I became an atheist at 15. It was years later before I realized this song is, in part, about being an atheist (despite the first line).
No official video of the song of which I'm aware, so I linked to this.
