186. I think I've had enough exercise for one day. Poured concrete, built a gate in the fence in the back, did door to door trash pick up, miscellaneous work orders. Don't worry about it; I get amply compensated (Did they buy it?)

187. I think daylight savings is a pain in the -

188. I think I need Rogaine, or a hair weave, or something. Do they come in silvery gray?

189. I think I need a cold Lone Star Beer.

190. I think a2k members ought to serenade me to sleep tonight.

Snowball in Hell
They Might Be Giants

Avalanche or roadblock
I was a snowball in hell
Avalanche or roadblock
A jailer trapped in his cell

Money's all broke, and food's going hungry
If it wasn't for disappointment
I wouldn't have any appointments

Side effect or drug trip
Don't tease me with all of your might
Side effect or drug trip
My panacea's in a Xerox shop

Have a nice day, you want it when?
Have a nice day, have a nice day

"I didn't expect to find a salesman drinking coffee this late in the morning. How long you been here, Joe?
Oh, I don't know, I guess thirty, forty-five minutes maybe. Why do you ask?
You must be making a lot of sales, piling up good income.
Oh... uh... I'm doing all right. I could do better, but... Ohahaha I get it Paul. Back on that old "Time is Money" kick, right?
Not back on it, Joe, still on it."

Sweet Dreams, edgar.


California Zephyr Lyrics, as played by Hank Williams, with key changes and everything....


From the (e)great salt lakes of utah to calif(a)ornia's golden (e)shore
Colorado and nevada through the (f#)deserts burnin' (b7)door
While she's (e)circlin' through the canyons, can't you (a)see that mountain (e)stream
It's the california zephyr, the (b7)union pacific (e)queen

See her rockin' see her rollin' as she rambles on her way
She left la this mornin' burnin' up the right of way
In the distance hear her moanin' hear her lonesome whistle scream
It's the california zephyr, the union pacific queen

She leaves the city of the angels headin' for ole santa fe
She's a makin' nauts she's makin' time just watch her swing and sway
And from way out in the darkness, see that headlight gleam
It's the california zephyr, the union pacific queen

From the great salt lakes of utah to california's golden shore
Colorado and nevada through the deserts burnin' door
While she's circlin' through the canyons, can't you see that mountain stream
It's the california zephyr, the union pacific queen

Another soothing bit of music. I should sleep well tonight.

191. I think I shall have a Subway sandwich this evening.

192. I think I would like to graduate from typing to writing.

193. I think Capote wrote good, but I don't like his books.

194. I think Bob Dylan ought to consider forming a group to sing with on his next albums, to smooth over the roughness of his voice.

195. I think that once globalization is complete, governments and corporations will own everything, except the toys they sell us to mesmerize our brains.

196. I think they ought to bury James Brown's poor deceased body.

197. I think old sailors who want to tell me every detail of their service time ought to have tape over their mouths.

198. I think the walls we build will keep us in and nobody out.

199. I think soldiers are necessary; most wars are not.

200. I think the new expensive TVs are a rip-off, if they are only good for a couple of years, as I've heard.

201. I think people are entirely too ready to push their views of death on others. Much like religion, government types and anything else, I suppose.

202. I think the USA is ready for universal health care.

203. I think the scare over vitamin supplements is just that: a scare. You have to choose your supplements wisely, but, in that context, I refuse to accept the kind of studies we have lately read about.

204. I think the new film about locating Jesus' body is the same sort of hoax as Chariots of the Gods, The Passover Plot, and the like. I doubt I would care to watch it at all.

205. I think the "So easy a caveman can do it" commercials are a gas.

You know what I get tired about is how our research and medical types keepchanging their minds about things.

Eat this.....no, wait, don't eat that. It causes cancer, no, wait, it's not that bad, etc. Mad

It's interesting how studies can be flawed and can send things in a tizzy and flip flopping.

I think we all just do the best we can.

In the case of vitamins, I think it is part of a greater plan to sell more designer drugs. If you can be healthy cheaply, you won't be giving them all your paychecks.

206. I think there is goodness in forgiveness.

207. I think film biographies of stars are grossly mishandled. Rarely enjoy them.

208. I think cheese is stinky milk.

209. I think grapes are the food of the gods.

210. I think Leonard Cohen's albums, Recent Songs, and Songs of Love and Hate, are my top favorites by him.

211. I think, like Mick Jagger, you can't always get what you want. But also agree with Roger Miller, that you can be happy if you've a mind to. Roo doo doo doo doo de doo.

212. I think people who argue too much on forums tend to be contentious for little to no reason, a pit I also fall into from time to time.

213. I think direct vote is the best notion for national elections.

214. I think electronic voting machines are great, but only if they are engineered to leave a paper trail, to verify the results.

215. I think if humans were meant to fly they would invent airplanes.

Very Happy , a couple guys on a morning show a few weeks back were discussing popular mechanics magazine views of the future from the 50's, and near the end of the discussion they were reading quotes about advancements in technology from scientists, engineers and the like

one engineer remarking on the inauguration of a ten seat passenger plane, remarked, "a larger plane will never be built", way to think outside the box buddy

When I was pretty small, the My Weekly Reader mag said that we would be flying helicopters instead of driving cars in the 1970s. I also read back then that nuclear power plants would make electricity practically free by now.

Do you feel that this contentious behaviour crops up in these folks daily lives as well?

I couldn't begin to say. May be they compensate for timidity in real life, or, they are always this way. As Fats Waller observed, "One never knows, do one?"
