What up, Homie? Yeah, Clinton went nuclear and it worked. Looks like she picked up Texas, although the actual delegate count is still up in the air. The sad thing is she's going to continue with this throw-everything-and-the-kitchen-sink-at-my-opponent approach, which will start to demoralize a lot of Democrats... a lot of NEW Democrats, residents who hadn't cared about politics or were too young to vote in the past. Which plays right into the Republicans hands.

As for Pettitte, his level of likability is so high that even though fans know there's more there, they don't care. But Clemens... he's toast.

Happy belated New Year, good sir.

Hope you are well.

Hope you and yours are doing well

Thanks, my friend. Hope you had a swell Turkey Day, too.

Wish I could say that mine was "meat free", but, alas, I cannot. All of my attempts at converting to vegetarianism have thus far been failures. I'm weak, weak, weak.

Desmond Tutu is a man of extraordinary grace. That is no lie.

Be well, B.V.!

Thanks for the sweet words

Hope all is well in your world

Happy B.day, B.V.!!

Prost!

thank you!

I'm not brave enough for whitewater rafting

beautiful picture!

~ Ah... Do you paddle those weird looking whitewater canoes, with the middle filled with flotation, or do you do whitewater in a traditional canoe?

i've done some cleaning and planning so far, that's all. the snow sucks.


i've never tried grits. green or not.

An ex girlfriend is storing her motorcycle in my garage, I wonder if she will notice it has a full tank now. So, it's Spring again, almost

- I've learned to roll a kayak recently, so I'm dying to get out and do some real whitewater for the first time!
- I have a white orchid too!

- Oh, and it rained all day here in the Southern Berkshires. On the north side of the county, they got six inches of snow. Go figure... The two local ski areas probably want to commit suicide at this point...

My mom says that a granparent's jon is to love and spoil the hell out of a child, and then give them back to the parent!

Maria's motivations are always personal. It's sad.

sounds crazy, but exciting in an adrenaline pumping sort of way

Oh yeah, and we're finally getting our first storm, so I'll probably do half a day at work, then hit the slopes for the rest of the day. I live in ski country, so it's only fifteen minutes to the slopes!

A lot of the ski trails are no longer groomed here, by the county. So I go up with snow shoes stomp in a trail, ski it for a week or so then it snows so I have to do it again, and so it goes. I'm getting to old for this ! Great view from the top of that trail though.
