James May's Road Trip - Crossroads

Oz Clarke & James May are teaching me about wine! This clip is from Season 1 in France. Season 2 finds Oz & James touring California.

Google chattin'

Friend: how much longer do you have to go to school for?

Me: did you ever see that movie Sandlot?

Friend: ...

ME: FOR-EV-ER!!

Quite possibly my favorite 10 seconds of the Royal Wedding

Screen grabbed from PBS' YouTube channel.

I don't believe she was ever really a commoner. Such a beautiful portrait. I did wake up for 6am to watch the ceremony. Loved every moment.

Check out The British Monarchy's photostream on flickr for more photos.

A part of me is super jealous of James May's life.  He gets paid to:

• Play with toys,
• Drive cool cars & 
• Take road trips

Wow. This is gorgeous!

Emailz

I glanced at my email total...

And it reminded me of the Conchord's binary solo.



And I got a chuckle. 

Sometimes I feel like this

AHHHH!

SPSS just turned my analysis into this:

And then it unexpectedly quit.   :(

The last alcoholic beverage* I had...  ALMOST 3 WEEKS AGO!!!

We are supposedly going to get trampled with snow...

So, in honor of that...  Some Calvin & Hobbes!!

More blue

I am listening to and really enjoying Cyndi Lauper's Memphis Blues album. 

Blue

I moved all my blue icons together so they can have a little blue party and further confuse the heck outta me.  Yes, I realize how ridiculous this is.

Happy New Year!

I think 2011 is trying to get on our good side with this weather here in the Northeast. 

Anyway, here is a picture of a business envelope full of small paper cranes.  There is not a thousand, just an envelope full.  They are also called peace cranes and I enjoy making them.  The envelope does not have a stamp, nor an address.  It will not be mailed.  (Although how funny might that be to see the expression on someone's face as they open a letter and out fall all these tiny paper cranes!) 

Happy New Year!  May this year be filled with peace and happiness.
