to a point, busy = happy

[fflo]

I dunno: "happy" may be an overstatement, but maybe not, so why not.

A good night's sleep is comin' my way soon, I hope, but I've been enjoying bustle-y busy days in a row. Free and easy people company therein is a big part of it, I reckon. Last night, with a couple of favorite locals, I got to the DFT at the DIA (sung to the tune of that number in Hair) for this tight bit of Hong Kong action fun (Breaking News) --- which should get some award for best use of mod-ren technological everyday conveniences in such a picture. We meandered home via La Shish West, which is open until midnight. Good to know, yes?

I'm all about trying out phrases I don't normally use, to see how they sound on me. Language, but particularly The English Language is so complex in it's varied usages, combinations of words, connotative phrases etc. I just love that about it. I took a college class (which really should have been 2 semesters worth at least) on the history of English. Fasincating stuff.

My grandmother used to say "looking at television" instead of "watching tv". She also called McDonalds burgers "hamburger sandwiches" which as a kid, I found supremely embarassing. Now I just marvel at the differences in the language in just one or two generations.

Oh, and that icon with the Wafffle Man is a pic of Food Netword host Alton Brown from his waffle show. The text references a joke made in the movie Mystery Men at a local super hero tryouts.

The Wafflers Slogan: Gold and Crispy, Bad guys are Hist'ry!!

Ah, I remember those tryouts. Alton Brown is kind of a superhero, isn't he? I haven't seen the show in a good while, but his egg and his potato episodes were quite instructive.

He's one of the reasons why my party food is as successful as it is. He's quite a clever, funny guy.
