Hey! Wasn't it just a couple weeks ago that we were all settin' off fireworks? (okay, sorry...I sometimes forget that www stands for the worldwide web)

Hey! Wasn't it just a couple weeks ago that we were all basking in the mid-summer sun? (oh crap, that's right...I ALSO sometimes forget about those folks down under too!)

Aah...Screw it!!!

Tempus fugit, huh people?!


Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

Well, that's true according to the Gregorian Calender, Bill.

But MAYBE because those folks down under are still I think part of the British Commonwealth, Dave here just might still be usin' one of those old "Lucas Calenders" down there.

(and you know how unreliable anything with that name attached to it can be, don't cha?!)

Well, only the ones using Withworth fasteners, Bill. The early 1970's was when Joe L. switched to metric calender fasteners, and they were a little more reliable, but as you can see here, they're still not the most reliable calenders on the market today.

(and don't even ask me about those darn old Amal alarm clocks either)

Speak for yourself. I'm still basking in the smoke. I'm going to have to go to Los Angeles for some fresh air!

I used to have one of those

Had to use a Delorto to wake me up to tickle the Amal so it would ring

Yep, and I got my stitches out just 1 hour ago, and am taking Blue out this weekend for my first ride in a while! And the whole weekend is forecast sunny, even here in Connecticut!!! And no, I don't believe them, cause it's been sunny all week while I couldn't ride, so now that I CAN ride, well....

Don't worry about it Dwight....I was in Walgreens today and they were already discounting the Halloween candy to make room for the Christmas decorations!

But, what do I know?

It means I get to go home next month-to my sweetheart and my new 07 America, the Black Pearl. (In that order, I need to make clear-enough said?)
