    Sorry. I'll get off the soapbox now. I have a date with Jimi, Janis, Jim.
    You know, I think that kitsune is lying about her age.
    She is really One of Us from the "over 50" thread a while back!
    I have been noticing clues in her posts for a while now.
    Even tho' she didn't mention Bob and Joan in her list , she knows stuff only a woman of the 60's/70's would know.
    Or maybe she fell thru a (un-darned) hole in the fabric of the space/time continuum.

    The plot thickens...

    All you need is love...la-dee-da-dee-da...all you need is love!

    One of my favorite "old boyfriend songs" is Diamonds and Rust, by Joan, about Bob.

    "Well I'll be damned,
    here comes your ghost again.
    But that's not unusual,
    it's just that the moon is full,
    and you happened to call..."

    I recently downloaded it. That woman can write and sing.

    Nanci - your new baby is so tiny! He looks like a little striped bracelet! Does Maizey swim too?

    Margo, you may be right about Kitsune.....

    Lise - yay for OTC narcotics! I could use some about now, I have a pounder of a headache. I'm starting to connect them to "spare the air" days, when the air outside is so bad they encourage everyone to drive less, not use gas mowers etc.

    Uh-huh. I'm voting on the space/time continuum idea, but on this forum, I think only Chickwhorips knows for sure (even then not so sure-forsure) and a lady doesn't really tell her age, anyway.
    I didn't add Bob because I was going on my j-thing, and honestly, Baez (sp?) somehow didn't 'do it' for me... ...and I've always worshiped Janis. What a voice. She couldn't grow old- it wasn't her way, anyway.

    The Times, They are a' Changin'... but they're still pretty much the same?

    Knotted- it won't be long now, but don't freak out watching it, it'll take so much longer if you do!

    I wonder what about the lymphoma makes Roux breath fast. I had a LH Dachshund when I was a teenager, named Roo, because that was how she barked- "Rooooooo." Actually, she started out being named JC after my soon to be exBF, and had to undergo a name change...

    CWH- that's what my friend Teresa suggested- a centipede. Make a black tube, sew legs on it, get her to crawl through. Do you mean what is the snake? Because I sure couldn't tell you what the NP is- I get a different one each time.

    I have the BEST manicurist. She can make nails that will stand up to cave diving! She also can get them _really_ short.

    Choco is a California Kingsnake, coastal phase, aberrant pattern, likely a "designer snake." (Bred for a weird, not normal pattern.)

    Great news about the house, Fish! Was that the people who looked at it , was that just yesterday?

    Nanci - the lymph nodes swell and make breathing very difficult. I lost my first corgi to lymphoma.

    About the fixed gear thing--if you have both cogs, can you shift between them while riding? Or does the freewheel cog allow you to both pedal and coast?
    Not really. You put a cog on each side of the hub so you can just flip-flop your wheel depending on what you want to do. If I have the fixed cog, I can't coast. Freewheel I can. There are no shifters or gears on Sloane. She likes to KISS.

    Hope your hip pain is fleeting.

    Checked FedEx. My bike is in Chicago now waiting for a truck heading west. All you Chicago babes, blow her a kiss and tell her she'll be home soon!
    Done

    I commuted today. It was overcast but the radar looked pretty good. Ride in - fine. Ride out - rain. I got a little wet....But at least it's somewhat warm so I didn't freeze. Just a nice shower.

    Fish - congrats on the offer! I'd say pour me a lemondrop, but I got sick off those about 5 years ago on St. Patricks day. Not exactly an irish drink, but hey it did the job. A little too well.

    CWR- well, it's OPI something- I'll look next time. If I didn't have them done, they'd look like crap, because I'd bite them down to nothing!! I don't like going there that much, because I immediately start falling asleep. So it's like being at school, or work, or driving, and trying to stay awake, and I can't, so it's pretty miserable.

    Kits = Lady?! HA! I didn't think ladies used DP's white dish towels to clean their bikes!
