vurt wrote: "What brings you to Canada, Mr Behan?" To which Behan is supposed to have replied "Well now, I was in a bar in Dublin and it had one of those coasters, and it said "Drink Canada Dry," so I thought I'd give it a shot." The second story states that he would write a slogan for Guinness if he were given a few crates of the product. The next day, the advertisers from Guinness returned to find the crates empty, surrounded by bits of crumpled paper, and he said "I've got it: 'Guinness makes you drunk.'"

Urgh, feeling flat. Had more fun than is allowed by law at the Yellow Rose last night (gentlemans club), but today.. I pay.  
Cool and damp outside so I'm not motivated to go out - went to the coffee shop anyway and came back with a large latte' and a large drip.. I hope it helps wake me up.
Need to reformat/reinstall the Dell D610 so I can sell it, my Vizio Android tablet is ready to go on Craigslist. Once my living arrangements settle down, it's off to sell the Ibanez bass and the RG250DX. 
All proceeds go to the "Get Wooly A Nashville Tele" fund. 
Back to fiddling with my JamMan Solo XT looper pedal.. not sure if I'm going to keep it. I'm shifting to singer/songwriter mode, so I just want me + guitar + one or two pedals, no more. Guess my two Zoom MS-50Gs will get sold off too.
Simplify, simplify, simplify.   ---- My bloggity blog: http://the-serpents-fang.blogspot.com/ Red Room Authors Page: http://redroom.com/member/edward-averill Tracktion 4 and proud of it! GO T4! |

Thanks to digitizing old cassettes, at last I know who -- or WHAT -- played the part of "The Alien" in Mac Radio Calhoun's Space: Nineteen Fifty-Six! (Six... Six... Six...) By reversing the obviously backwards audio I learn that the actor's name was "Cheap Studio Prop Number 34." All defensive sound effects up! Fire mylar torpedoes! MAUVE ALERT!!! |

I found similar in a lost in space episode, the obvious backwards track was a line of the robot's from a different time in the show played backwards. It was suppose to be a radio message coming from a planet in a strange language ---- I never learned anything from being right Hink 2012 RIP Reason L. and Ian B |

I have finally identified the houseplant that Millicent brought home from work, then brought back from near-death to thriving condition. Tricky because the species has many different-looking varieties. Ours somewhat resembled Audrey from "Little Shop of Horrors" but without the mouth. It propagates by forming plantlets along the edges of its leaf-shaped stems, then dropping them.
Turns out to be Kalanchoe daigremontiana, aka "Devil's Backbone" or "Mother of Thousands," native to Madagascar. All parts are quite poisonous, deadly to small animals or young children (in South Africa, where it grows wild, it's responsible for a third of all cattle deaths caused by toxic plants). Into a plastic bag it goes for safety, then into the trash. No way this goes into the compost heap. It would survive and next year's gardens would be full of the stuff. Meh. It looked frightening anyway. |

Even though I have never unlocked a phone myself, it's at least mildly scary to think that the Library of Congress might have Secret Agents. |
