I was driving behind a car last night with a vanity license plate:

NEEPLES


I thought I'd share.

“Chives?”
“Yes, m’lud?”
“Is that Ms Ephemera hovering over the croquet lawn?”
“Indeed m’lud. She’s marshalled all the haggle-dans. Missy-twigs and vale-nymphs from Claypole Woods. Apparently she intends to tear this house down and dance on the ruins.”
“Well, Chives, you’d better start the car, what? And pack my tennis things too”

I know. It was dark on a country highway, so I was behind them for a while, and every time we pulled up to a traffic light, my headlights caught sight of NEEPLES and it made me happy.

Today I heard an old somg on the radio, "Bang on the Drum All Day" that made me think of the board. I decided to switch the lyrics around a bit and came up with this:

I don’t want to work
I want to post on the board all day
I don’t want to play
I just want to post on the board all day

Ever since I was a tiny girl
I don’t want no candy
I don’t need no toy
I took a mouse and a keyboard
I post on that thing ’til I got
Blisters on my hand because

I don’t want to work
I want to post on the board all day
I don’t want to play
I just want to post on the board all day

When I get older they think I’m a geek
The teacher told me I’m failing in Greek
She caught me posting on the board with my ‘puter
But my posts were so cool
I made the teacher wanna post
And that’s why

I don’t want to work
I want to post on the board all day
I don’t want to play
I just want to post on the board all day

Listen to this
Every day when I get home from work
I feel so frustrated
The boss is a jerk
And I get my laptop and go up to my room
And I pound on the keyboard like it was the boss’s head
Because

I don’t want to work
I want to post on the board all day
I don’t want to play
I just want to post on the board all day

I can post on the board
Hey, you wanna take a stab at it?
I can do this all day

Everytime I pass a traffic light I think of the Lost Girl`s avatar.

Other board reminders include the Meat counter at supermarkets and weather forecasters telling me to expect Rain tomorrow...

Sometimes it is said that man can not be trusted with the government of himself. Can he, then, be trusted with the government of others? Or have we found angels in the forms of kings to govern him? ~ Thomas Jefferson

When I was talking on the phone to a rather New-Agey friend last night abou thte spiritual healing class she'd been to and she came out with

'And he said imagine your hands getting waarm with the energy flow, and they got warm, and all I could think was, I'm going to spontaneously combust!!! And then I thought, I'd maybe better stop petting the cat, too.'

Just seemed a rather Boardish reaction...

You are a Leprechaun. I'm not even sure what you are. Whiskey-soaked reports from your baffling Isle of Ire raise more questions than they answer. Are you a dwarf? Where's your pickax? If you're an elf, why don't you cobble? You'd think with all your gold, you could invest in some land, perhaps a title, and improve your station. Instead, you hide it in meteorologically-determined locations. You're getting killed on inflation, little friend!

I just had a rehearsal for a public reading my theatre company will be having of a play called "Omnium Gatherum" by Theresa Rebeck and Alexandra Gersten-Vassilaros tonight.

Omnium Gatherum has little plot, per se; the entire play is derived from the interactions between eight people from varying backgrounds, as they explore their differences and similarities about topics ranging from the food, Star Trek, capitalism, terrorism, morality, and more. Though the eight can't agree about much, they do have one trait in common: hunger. Each hungers to question the others' ideas and, afterwards, each hungers to come out on top of the debate.

Anyway, as I read this, I swear every single line could have been a transcription of some of the threads we've had. There were a few characters that were like conglomerations of some of you. I loved the play and I suggest everyone pick up a a copy and/or come see it when my theatre company puts it on!

Just sometimes I think "I've got to tell the Board".

Watching That 70's Show with Geoff-
Eric- "That was the greatest day in the history of....time!"
Fez- "Yes. That and the invention of cheese."

At work, after completing 400-some-odd box lunches-
Supervisor- "Woo hoo! That's the last of them. Last of the Mojitos."

Me- "Wha??"

Her- "You know, last of the Mojitos"

Me- "Mohicans. It's The Last of the Mohicans"

Her- *giggling* "Mohicans, Mojitos....I knew it was something like that."

I had the car radio on on the way home from work yesterday...it's started playing...

why don't you build me up, buttercup Big Grin

I just suddenly had these visions of a big grin and a pair of Antenna.

So 'Amii Spawn' would have been a better choice?


(I like to think of them as twins)
