I could only make it through 2 minutes of Blazen Hazen. Nor could my wife -- I showed it to her. The paint is now peeling off the walls, the plaster is falling, the lightbulbs are bursting, the cats are having diarrhea and I don't think I will be able to have carnal relations with my wife again. Thanks.

You named that Simpsons reference with only one word!
Bas-O-MaticI've been to concerts at both, but can't remember anything of note at the old Ellis AUditorium. I can't remember whether I saw the Sithereens there or at the old Memphis State Field House.
That's too bad. Didn't seem that the bldg that put in it's place was all that great.
I actually went to the Orpheum when it was the old Malco theatre. Saw quite a few movies there. The last one being "Kelly's Heroes" in ~ 1970.
After they reopened it as the Orpheum in 1978 or 79, before it was remodeled, I caught Nazareth and Thin Lizzt there. At the time it still had the hand painted walls and ceilings -very ornate.
When they redid the place the old paintings on the walls were covered over with ornate wallpaper, but it wasn't as nice, IMO.
Saw Stevie Ray there in 1985 after the remodeling.

Police said they stopped a motorist for running a stop sign on the 4600 block of West George Street about 6:30 p.m. Thursday. When the officer approached the man's pickup truck, he saw a lit marijuana cigarette in the man's lap, police said."

ALBANY, New York (AP) -- The son of Miami police Chief John Timoney was sentenced Wednesday to 18 months in federal prison for trying to buy 400 pounds of marijuana from an undercover agent in 2005.
Sean Timoney, 26, pleaded guilty in December 2005 to giving an undercover Drug Enforcement Administration agent a gym bag filled with about $455,000 in cash as partial payment for what he and a partner believed would be the delivery of 400 pounds of marijuana.

See this is where things start to go to hell. First, you polish the dining room table and chairs. Then, you notice you need to wash the Royal Doulton blue and white bowl that sits on the table. You go do that and realise that the silver band around the top is woefully tarnished and then see that the spoon and fork that match the bowl, but are also silver fitted are just a disgrace. One damned thing leads to another and you're polishing the samovar.

I folded it up small and placed it alongside the wall between the kitchen and the living room. The assumption is that if I ever 'dine' I can open the whole thing back up again. Try to figure my house as a rather lavish ship cabin, with everything put away.
I thought I would miss the dining room when I moved into this tiny apartment, but so far, I haven't. The little dining area off the kitchen is large enough for my little table and looks out over the mountains.

Day 2: For Lunch we go to a place called Armando's where the Burgers are good even if they appear to be deep fried in Oil that's been going since the turn of the last Century. For Dinner, we go to this place a sort of attempt at gourmet redneck. I have the prime rib.
Day 3: Treated to a "country brunch" which consisted mostly of various salted pork products and gravy.
Day 4: Chrstmas Dinner, with all the attendent dishes prepared with a stick of butter each.

I'm not a big fan of vinyl-covered furniture, which wasn't uncommon when I was a kid (and still isn't in South Philly), but I hope you shrouded your dining room table in it before putting it in the pool.
Meanwhile, I see that there's a virtual tag-team marathon for last-minute runs to the store! Now that I've returned, still needing to wash up my coffee/breffix stuff and shower, I feel a bit relieved...
...That is, until I ran into all of those pot bust stories. After over a year of generally mediocre but regular bounty-- and that after about twenty years of abstinence due to lack of socialization-- a drought struck just after Thanksgiving. I haven't heard a word since.
I sternly tell myself that a break might be the best thing for me, since I may lose a few pounds and regain a bit of energy since I'm terminally backlogged at work-- but I refuse to take comfort in such sensible views.
I cringe when I see drug busts on TV news, especially pot; that's one of the things that weaned me away from watching that dreadful show COPS, which had me for a while. I just can't stand to see the videos of bales and bales being confiscated by the Law. I change channels or turn off the TV.
Ever since I've moved into this house , I've considered trying to do something with the seeds I've saved. (I know the birds probably wouldn't even touch a big plastic jar dating from before the 20-year break, which I should just toss, but I have fresher ones.) I've sporadically surfed for growing tips, but frankly became intimidated by the exacting, scientific sites. So I'm hung up because I'm too chickenshit to order those special light systems and apparatus for serious production, but I tell myself it's not worth starting with a peat pot and a Gro-bulb.
We ate in the dining room the whole time my mil was here because there were five of us and the kitchen table, which looks out onto the patio and back yard, only,seats four. I had the chandelier wrapped with fresh greens and ribbons. It was quite festive, actually.

Given that Mrs O-Matic's father actually lives in Ooltewah and we didn't feel like making the trek over to the hell that is Gun Barrel road just to eat at J Alexanders or Logan's Roadhouse, I think the appeal of Cracker Barrell was that it was "open" and didn't involve "cooking."

Marijuana top US cash crop, analyst says:
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. growers produce nearly $35 billion worth of marijuana annually, making the illegal drug the country's largest cash crop, bigger than corn and wheat combined, an advocate of medical marijuana use said in a study released on Monday.
The report, conducted by Jon Gettman, a public policy analyst and former head of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws, also concluded that five U.S. states produce more than $1 billion worth of marijuana apiece: California, Tennessee, Kentucky, Hawaii and Washington.
Better plan on putting powdered sugar on your pancakes.
Or just do what the "maple flavored" syrup people do - mix maple flavoring with corn syrup.

marijuana plants, unlike many plants, can develop into male, female or hermaphroditic plants, with female flowers having the greatest THC content and therefore value. Male plants flower early and have little potency. Hermaphodites frequent dives.
they're going to have to change all the planting zone maps in the seed catalogs if this warming crap doesn't stop.

One of my colleagues has a teenaged son who suffer from chronic anxiety, and has for years. It's debilitating. They have gone through medication after medication, but nothing worked.
Finally, their psychiatrist prescribed marijuana and directed them to a legal dispensary. It worked.
Of course, the kid got a little carried away for about a month...but hey, at least he could take his final exams and frickin pass them without throwing up.
My friend thanks you.
NTodd has been extolling his area's maple syrup run, iirc.
Cannabis seeds possess' both sexual charateristics. Most seeds these days available on the market, have been chemically altered to produce a greater likelyhood of females. There is not a guaranteed female seed, but I suspect that science is close to producing that (hence the Mexican 'superstrain')
Although, I wouldn't really know anything about that. Except that the 'Mexican superstrain' news is relatively old.
Better plan on putting powdered sugar on your pancakes.

"The drug warriors need to go after REAL criminals"
Yeah but then they'd have to go into boardrooms and such - tacky.
A couple of years ago my wife and I went to visit a couple she knew from work. Not only was all of their furniture covered with vinyl, but they had this very annoying poodle and had, (and I kid you not) astroturf carpet run throughout the house.
We went out to eat at a Chinese place and they wore matching American flag sweaters. I had a hard time keeping the Schezwan beef down after that.
Would that be a diet Coke, plantsman... or would you care for something different?

O yeah. It is forever lost, too, there's just no doubt about it. But whoever it was who said private prisons are part of the problem was right. They get paid per prisoner. It is a huge incentive to keep arresting people.
The privatizing of governmental functions leads to nothing good, IMO. There are some things that should not be done for profit.
Texas has outsourced its foster care system to private companies. Three children were killed by foster families in Texas last year.
Things like this make me want to take a hostage. God it's hard to take, this selling of our - OUR - government.
I just got a jury duty summons (third in ten years), so I'm guessing I'll be asked about my views on our drug laws at the end of the month.
Too many livelihoods are dependent on marijuana being illegal for it to be outright legalized.

fourlegs, what did the vet actually do for him?
Before haloscan hiccupped, I said they pumped him full of antibiotics (IV) fluids (another IV), anesthisized him to examine his tumor, shaved both front legs and the side of his face and various other exams.
The verdict? he STILL has cancer!!! good grief. I'm just glad to have him back.
I think marijuana will be legalized eventuallly.
What happened to boomers is they had kids. Doing it yourself is one thing, right? But your kids...
But I think states will decriminalize it to the point where it will be legal nationally.
Whoa, that little haloscan hiccup set me back a little.

okay, i can beat the vinyl furniture thing - sortof - my mom always left the plastic on the lampshades, don't know how old i was when i figured out that you were supposed to remove it. my grandparents had thick clear vinyl on their carseats. in central florida. burned the skin off your legs. now, i must say that mom's dining room chairs did have cloth, despite the vinyl seats on the kitchen chairs.
when i decided to pick a pattern of 18/8 stainless instead of waiting for a marriage that never happened, my mom discouraged me - said i should pick a cheaper stainless pattern for every day.
she and dad now drive a $50,000 lexus but they're still using their almomst tin everyday crappy flatware. now, the fancy stuff is sterling - not plate- but for god's sake they won't use THAT every day. weird.

So shut the fuck up!! before Tena boots your ass good.
Since Haloscan's back up, for the moment:
I'm Italian-American myself, and yes, I do know a family with vinyl-covered furniture and a son named Antny.
They lived in West Philly (Overbrook), though, not South Philly. Actually, the friend I was thinking of lived just around the corner from Antny, and he was Italian too.
And you're quite right about COPS, Tena; I got to a point where I would change channels during particularly obnoxious segments, and then I finally asked myself why I was watching such a sorry-ass show anyway. I think at first I was intrigued by the occasional segment in which the cop(s) actually came off as human, and even helpful to some deranged or utterly pathetic citizen; but more and more it was all about stormtrooper bulked-up goons with shaved heads busting people they followed because the perp's car radio antenna was bent or the like. "You can either give us 'permission' to search, or we'll just turn the dog loose...". Ugh.
And as far as serious hydroponics or indoor "agriculture" goes, I know I'm not up for that. Probably like a million others, I dream of raising enough to keep myself happy. But even though it's essentially a hardy weed, I get the impression that it's a lot of work.

the early news about the possible positive effect of marijuana on Alzheimers', what's to lose?
There's been a seachange in how marijuana is viewed. There are too many people now who have tried it and know the government is lying about it. And the news has become mostly positive about it.
Of course, if big Pharma gets it, we lose it.
So I guess I should be careful what I wish for. But I do believe it is going to be legalized sooner rather than later. I may not live to see it, but I'm not going to be around that much longer.

mer - thanks. my dog died november 15 and that first month was just horrible. i can look at his photos around the house now without crying, but last night had a weird weird dream that i walked in on my mom (who lives in another state) and she was holding him! i asked her if we were in a dream, since he was dead, and she said she did not know. i picked him up and held him and kissed him and was thrilled to hold his little 8 pound body. then i took him to my dad to show him and to tell dad i did not understand how he could be touched and held and felt, since he was dead, but it was a good thing. i guess the grieving goes from in your face to in your dreams at some point as you try to move forward.

Yeah, some wanker from Maine.
And... here we go again: Re:HICA!!!!!
.
Of the states which have held Initiative votes on it, often there has been a "personal cultivation" component, and I think 11 states, mostly Western, have passed decriminalization initiatives.
Now that I know how many good Texans there are, I'm a bit less worried about the chances of the George and Laura Museum happening there. Why don't they think about a Six Flags type thing maybe in Nevada?
I dunno, Texn. I've seen quite a few lampshades with the plastic "dust cover" left on-- especially shades with ruffles or pleats or whatever you call those extra folds of cloth.
My grandmother's next-door neighbor, Serafina, had a son who owned or managed a lamp factory, or store, or somesuch. A couple of times he gave grandma lamps. I could probably Google up a sample, but suffice to say that they were cheaply-made gaudy things with bronze-plated bases incorporating "decorative" colored plexiglass geometric shapes. Terry knows exactly what I'm talking about.
My grandmother passed one on to us; my mother didn't care for it a bit, but I think my father (rest his soul) thought the price was right. It had a huge amber ball above the base, not much smaller than a basketball, containing a "night light". It stayed in our front porch on a table in front of the "picture window" for many years; at night, if anyone was still out at bedtime, my parents would leave the "night light" on.
Many's the time I came home buzzed, with that tacky lamp glowing like a harvest moon to greet me.
It wasn't this wanker from Maine. I'm anti-regionalist. This would be a better country if we could abolish states and apportion representation by weighted voting.
Regionalism weakens the left.
I'm Bach, with SNPA, biscuits, an onion and mesquite-smoked turkee for lunches this week.

then i took him to my dad to show him and to tell dad i did not understand how he could be touched and held and felt, since he was dead, but it was a good thing. i guess the grieving goes from in your face to in your dreams at some point as you try to move forward.
Silly, that was your dog visiting you in your dreams. He wants you to know that he's okay and not to grieve for him.
Dogs have souls too, you know.
I'm sure that all sounded really wacky, but believe me, it's true.
He just got combed (he luvvvvs that) and got the dressing off his leg, so he's a content kitty.

When my cat Zachary died (4 years ago of cancer), I had a dream a couple of days later.
All his stitches were gone (for his biopsies) and he was purring like crazy. I think he was just trying to tell me that he was all better in the afterlife.
He still visits me late at night sometimes. I see little indentations in the covers as he walks up the bed, then he'll lay down next to me.
It's wonderful.

Buddy, did you hear about what happened to me with my eyes? As somebody whose acute myopia has, every year (sometimes twice or thrice) meant that vision has become more and more parlous? I went to the opthalmologist yesterday and learnt that rather than going to -1300, my prescription had dropped to -1000 - the first time ever in my life. The doctor believes that the Byetta was the cause, that regulating my blood sugar actually positively affected my vision. It was a stunner.

Woman Charged With Malicious Castration
Dec 30, 6:50 AM (ET)
LILLINGTON, N.C. (AP) - A woman attacked a man in his genitals during a Christmas party, injuring him badly enough that he needed 50 stitches, authorities said Friday. Rebecca Arnold Dawson, 34, was charged with malicious castration in a fight early Tuesday at a party hosted by the 38-year-old man's girlfriend, police said.
All three were heavily intoxicated, police Chief Frank Powers said.
Dawson is accused of grabbing the man's genitals. Police said a weapon was not used. He declined to elaborate.
"I believe he needed more than 50 stitches to repair the damage, but he is back home at this point," police Cpl. Brad Stevens said. "All we can tell you is that the injury was done with her hands."
Dawson does not have a listed phone number.
State law describes malicious castration as cutting off, maiming or disfiguring a person's genitals with the intent to hurt or render the victim impotent.

If John Edwards swore to legalize it, he'd get the white male southern vote so fast that Karl Rove's head would spin.

You think that's true? I think he'd be demonized for it by the fundies and those rednecks would be more than happy to vote against him -- then go light up a fat one.
I'm confused as to why she took him to the emergency vet, did she try and contact you first?
His name tag had fallen off his collar. She didn't know who I was.
She was just trying to help.

Just heard on the NFL cable station:
"The Redskins represent the nation's Capitol."

That is SO Great, Dr.! My vision has stopped fluctuating and I watch the monitor unaided again, but that's a remarkable development!
We don't have to do yard work even if it's 50 in December, do we?

I asked my landlord if he would consider mowing the lawn again. He laughed at me.
I looked it up. I appears that body checking by females is all that Roller Derby is about.

Well the good, high quality roller derby circa 1975 had the Bay City Bombers and their coach, a well-dressed black guy named John Hall, who pick up a big table and drag it onto the middle of the track to block all the roller skating chicks from the opposing team.

Eliot Coleman has shown how people in Maine can have a garden year round using row covers and hot beds. I'd try it but until it snowed today we had no snow at all. The annual rye I planted in September is as green as it was then. It's disgusting.

The fundies would scream, but a lot of good old boys would go inside that booth and vote for weed

The doctor believes that the Byetta was the cause, that regulating my blood sugar actually positively affected my vision. It was a stunner.
Holy spit.

Wow. That's amazing. My opthamologist said there's new studies out this year that says taking Omega 3 fatty acid helps delay or stop presbyopia.
I just got reading glasses last year, so I'm hoping it will help keep my eyes from getting worse.
He still visits me late at night sometimes. I see little indentations in the covers as he walks up the bed, then he'll lay down next to me.
It's wonderful.

There is no more tender gentle pleasure than having they kitty walk softly around us on the bed.
I'd hate to see benevolent castrastion.
Dawson is accused of grabbing the man's genitals. Police said a weapon was not used. He declined to elaborate.
My imagination just went into overdrive.

A tenant called me for a snow shovel today...i don't have one...
there is a LOT of snow at my apartment bldg...but this is the first time ever that there's been this much snow in ABQ...
Whet I went off to college, my parents took the dog to the Human Society without telling me. It did not end well.

that is awful..
My older sister left us with a cat she had rescued, Sadie. We already had two cats and Sadie was a rapscallion.
Our neighbor claimed that she saw mom drive off with Sadie poking her head out of the back window of the station wagon but we never really knew and mom denied having anything to do with her disappearance.
My imagination just went into overdrive.

I had lumps in my back.
We don't have to do yard work even if it's 50 in December, do we?
You can come shovel my snow!
but sounds like the vet was after that $900.
Well, the night vet doesn't know him and wouldn't have had a reason to know he was a patient there since he didn't have a tag on.
I'm getting him a new tag today.
but sounds like the vet was after that $900.

it is a shame that so many folks with pets that have terminal cancer have such bills foisted on them after diagnosis for procedures that do not/can not improve the situation.
You can come shovel my snow!

or if you're closer, you could come shovel some of mine.

As we are in constant motion and the earth drags time along, that one step forward and one step to the left lies that you think has passed, but really only exists in another dimension.
Sadie, the dog, included. =)
