It didn’t help.
It’s 2:14 and I’m not asleep.

The Socialist and I had a talk last night. Evidently I’m always Gloomy Gus anymore, which makes it hard for him to hang around me. He says I never smile, and I seldom see the bright side of things. I wanted to argue with him that it wasn’t true, that I spent a good part…
THE GOOD NEWS: The lump is just a sebacious cyst. Granted, it got large quickly, but it isn’t infected (which is why there was never any pain connected with it). We just keep an eye on it. It will probably be as active as Clueless Wonder on a slow day (i.e. it’s just going to…
The damned feet are still out there. So much to the lazy Salamander approach to dismembered clean-up.
It seems like I end up reinventing myself in prime years. I think, at the start of life, everyone does that. Age thirteen is the start of that gray zone where you begin in earnest to move from childhood towards adulthood. You hit nineteen and find yourself embarking on the first truly official adult years….
I’ve got several dozen floppy discs on my desk at the moment. They all have stuff stored on them. None of it is stuff I’ve any need for. I think. But what if it turns out I do need it? That always happens about a week after I throw something out. All is not lost….
15. A Summer Song â Chad and Jeremy It was their second big song, after their initial hit âYesterdayâs Goneâ and C&Jâs biggest hit in the United States. It was the summer of 1964, I was eight years old, and I didnât have a clue what the song was about. It didnât matter; the harmonies…
celtic fest was the middle of september and i missed it! i had the pleasure of just walking to grant park when i lived downtown and catching a few minutes of the various festivals. i don’t own any, but i do appreciate celtic music very much 8)
I don’t understand celtic music. Around here they play it in those stores that sell smelly soap and candles.
Speaking of smelly soap, I’ve a bar that is stuck to the edge of the bath. I can’t take it off for the life of me. I’ve tried prying it off with a butterknife and a screwdriver, but it won’t work! So now when I want to wash my hands in the sink I have to moisten them under the tap, turn around, take a half step, bend down to the side of the bath, rub my fingers on the soap, stand up, turn around, take the half step back and then run them under the sink again. It takes like half an hour!
I love Celtic music, too. G loves to dance to more electronic stuff–rave music, that sort of thing. I pulled out some of my traditional Gaellic tunes for him the other day to show him what adrenaline is really all about. De Danaan dropped him to the floor. 🙂
a few years back i went to Guinness Fleagh (flah)in nyc, lots of wonderful music, the Chieftains performed as well as many other Irish bands, Sinead was there, Patti Smith, Tracy Chapman, Indigo Girls…can’t remember who else at the moment. also got a great piece of art from the many craftsmen who set up shops in the field. needless to say, i had my share of guinness!
Those wacky Celts.
Lots of Irish where I’m from. I like when they make their kids dress up and do their funny dances. It’s like the midgets in Wizard of Oz performing Riverdance.
The Chieftains rule!
=)
LOL
I love celtic music…and even took up playing the penny whistle. I wouldn’t say I’m good, but I love to play it. I drive my family nuts playing the same song over and over again…hahahah

I thought you were pulling our legs about Dick, but I’m a believer now.
I love Celtic music also. Something weird happened to my favorite CD, Celtic Christmas III by Windham Hill, so it won’t play anymore. Vinyl fatigue maybe.
Beautiful lyrics.
