For .09 Cents ? Why print them yourself

Rite Aid is offering Kodak prints (from memory card or a CD) for .09 cents each. Its a send out service and you have to wait 2-3 days. I just loaded a CD of about 120 pictures (since before christmas, shame on me!) and i'll see how they come out later in the week. By comparison, getting 24 exposures of film developed at $7.99 is .33 cents each.

A new "Mill" for Maine

Wind, that is. I heard from a trusted source that this is quite a sight to see.

Brazilian

Donald Rumsfeld briefed the President this morning. He told Bush that 3
Brazilian soldiers were killed in Iraq.

To everyone's amazement, all of the color ran from Bush's face, then he
collapsed onto his desk, head in hands, visibly shaken, almost whimpering.

Finally, he composed himself & asked Rumsfeld, "Just exactly how many is a
brazillion?"

The Simpsons as philosophy

"Cartoons abstract from real life in much the same way philosophers do. Homer is not realistic in the way a film or novel character is, but he is recognisable as a kind of American Everyman. His reality is the reality of an abstraction from real life that captures its essence, not as a real particular human who we see ourselves reflected."

Baseball Card Blog

Someday, I'll take some time to read through these. I'm still banking on some my cards helping to pay for my retirement someday.

My latest project

Mostly straight, square and level. Build one for $650 or buy for $3,000? What would you do? How do you like my skylight design?

Still gray, but not for long

At least that's what i'm told.

The Stripers must be coming

There were 4 or 5 guys out this moring along the river/marsh. There have been 1 or 2 out there for the last few weeks, but i think they are here to stay now. All last year there wasn't a single day that went by that there wasn't someone out fishing along the river. Must be good eatin ?

Staying power

The only bands that were around when i was a kid and are still relevant today are:

U2
Aerosmith
The Police (Sting)

I'm talking about bands/people that have maintained their relevance to pop culture....of course there is MUSIC from the 50's, 60's, 70's and even 80's that will be around for ever. All i'm saying is that those artists, today, are usually better remembered for what they did...and not about what they do, today.

I think the best Rock n Roll song of all time is

Sympathy for the Devil by the Roliing Stones. The drums, the guitar, the piano, the ooh ooh...if that song doesn't get you moving, nothing will!

1,000 covers of Rolling Stone on the wall

take one down, pass it around, 999 covers on the wall.

NEW YORK - Rolling Stone magazine celebrates its 1,000th issue this week with a burst of rock 'n' roll excess: a glitzy Manhattan party with the Strokes as house band and a 3-D cover that mimics the Beatles' "Sgt. Pepper" sleeve and cost nearly $1 million to produce.

Who's that hiding behind Elmo?

I was thinking the other day, do you think the kids that actually got to appear on Seasame Street fealt any different about seeing the characters as puppets and not "real" like they appear on TV?

Someone should do some research...maybe a "E! True Hollywood Story" The Kids of Seasame Street.
