desk


We saw an editing desk on-line we really liked. From photos I drew plans for a similar desk.
Tonight I got the lumber cut. I think it is going to look great. I still have a lot of work to do on it, but I was excited to get it to this stage.

ouch

It's late and I can't sleep. My hamstring hurts too much to relax. I did something to hurt it water skiing in July, and it still hurts. After working in the shop all day I was laying back in the recliner tonight trying to put my leg in a position that did not hurt. I finally found one. But, I couldn't hold it there long enough to get much relief. It was holding my thigh at roughly a 45 degree angle and my knee bent at a 45. It dawned on me... that is quite similar to the starting position for getting up slalom. That is the position I hurt it in. Could be something to that I suppose. But, regardless it is killing me right now.

I am usually so glad when Halloween is over. The whole thing is just goofy to me, and it usually causes some knuckle head to throw a pumpkin in the street and make a mess. Or even do something worse. But I didn't pay much attention to it all this year. It just kind of came and went, and that's a good thing.

Well, if you are reading this drivel, you must be a good friend, and I love you for that. Thanks for sitting up with me tonight. I think I'll shut it down and try once more to find sweet sleep.

Have you ever seen the movie "Meet Joe Black?"



Interesting movie - kind of weird, but I really liked it actually. It was one of those movies that is all about discovering what's really important in life. Funny we all know the answer to that, and even the worldly Hollywood types know it so firmly they are able to make a million movies with that theme. They can make us laugh and cry about it... so tell me... WHY is it that such a small percentage of the world lives that way?

Maybe this will help me understand: An apple a day...
Who can't finish that line? Everyone knows Benjamin Franklin said, "An apple a day keeps the doctor away." Well, even today's science shows ol' Ben was very right. We all know that... do you eat an apple a day? I don't. What's up with that? Are we just stupid or what?

Okay, goodnight.

I just want to post something


Old church building in Maljamar. The last time I was on my way back to Lubbock from Alamogordo, I stopped to shoot a photo. I have always enjoyed the beauty of an old church building, but I'm really diggin' them these days.

Blast From the Past


As a pledge we had to collect names of Tars and the Sub T Sweetheart. This was my list. See any names you recognize on there?
