sunday afternoon

[fflo]

may get my butt out of the house in a little bit. may not. we shall see.

youssou n'dour last night was really good. transporting, even. eventually even most of the mezzanine was dancing. so glad shmizla (pretty much) drug me there.

earlier in the day she'd seen a bumpersticker:

IF YOU CAN READ THIS, THANK A TEACHER
IF YOU CAN READ THIS IN ENGLISH, THANK A VETERAN

or was it "A SOLDIER"? either way, an accomplishment in pithy ign'ance. simultaneously stupid on multiple levels.

later i came up with this (variation on a theme) idea for a bumpersticker:

        FREE YOUR ASS AND
   YOUR MIND WILL FOLLOW

or is it more an idea for a religion?

i wonder whether "lord love a duck" comes from a particular concept in theology.

I like this one:

4 OUT OF 3 PEOPLE HAVE
TROUBLE WITH FRACTIONS

(Saw in the other day; I think it was Dave who mentioned it elsewhere around here recently.)

thanks :)

that whole household business is really annoying.

i think we should all move in together and then our costs would just go all the way down. how's that?

OK--but we have dogs AND cats. anyone have a newt or something else?

maybe we could get a parrot or something. that should make for endless entertainment (bird--cat--dog etc.)

your mentioning a parrot reminded me of the mildly dirty joke squirrelykat's buddy told the other night, and that reminded me of the horrible joke the "gentleman" at our end of the table told... the one that left all aghast. or nearly all. or all? or all but him, anyway?

anyway, i'm thinking some houseplants. i'd like to branch out (or back) into houseplants, i think. if small-scale.

yeah. i remember saying "what!??" and he wouldn't repeat it. i guess somewhere in the deep recesses of his brain he may have understood what a nasty thing he had just released into the world (or revived or something--someone had obviously told him the joke before, so there are others out there who think it's funny).

house plants good. i just realized today i had neglected one of mine (a dozen leaves fell off a palm, sadly; but it's a bushy one).
