In their entirety, the last 4 pages of flames require re-reading when my mood is lifted above this recent spate of blau, oops blue.
we have not seen Swami, red, rich, richard, Mr Ross(maybe he is the Mushroom guy too?) for some time now?
I was happy to see a post to the Bridwell thread , from the Gunks poster, "Floor above" ;
Black peter, keepin' it ole' skool, straight from Workingmans dead.
I was blown away by the !991 version from the Silverdome in vegas. worth a listen...
I have conveyed the copliment to the Ar'tiste, she will give leave to post well croped shots of a pice of hers or 2?

Otay. Feel better fast.
Stay in touch.
Tad and Mo, I feel terrible about you two being sick.
Hope you get plenty of rest.

there are more reasons than there are posters here, she says, that reinforces her choice to not indulge in any social media, then there is me, or our relationship . her vision, not dulled by to much of everything, sees what the top picture shows, I took the liberty to besmirch my loves' work.

we are working on 21 years,
moving along at a racer's clip, so many things that are always in flux, leave us in a kerfuffle. where have those spurts gone?
the kiddlets done growed up.( I need to ask, the teenagers what I can & what I must Not post)
theres' more & more reasons to try and get them, both, out doors and climbing.

in arizona, this counts as an accommodation, probably illicit, to pedestrianism elsewhere, they're stiling:
of course, the day after valentine's, i learn the term "kissing gate"
edit: yes mouse, i didn't withdraw my remark re: the clouds,
but was hustling to get it on the same page. having missed that i went with the stiles.
my further thought is that the third image is so "exemplar as to type", that it might be submitted
to the world meteorological organization, or other publisher of "cloud atlas"
which rely on citizen submission and include attribution

There is a book which I just started called The Second Son by Jonathan Rabb.
In the first chapter I learned about the International Workers Olympiad in Barcelona in 1937.
There were others prior to this one, but this one was the last.
There was competition in many of the normal Olympic sports, but CHESS?
C'mon, man...

Barcelona is an Olympic city (1992 - XXV Olympiad) for the regular Olympics, as well.
Who can forget the basketball Dream Team?
Laettner, Robinson, Ewing, Bird, Magic, Pippen, Jordan, Drexler, Malone, STockton, Barkley, Mullen, the players.
Daly, Coach K, Lenny Wilkens, and PJ as coaches.

And then there is that crazy cathedral and Parc Güell by Gaudi.

I wonder how many of them are on unemployment and how many are using winter job savings.
You just know none of them has a trust fund!
Definitely pre-Facelift era...

Remember when Max und Franz showed up at the Camp Four? (though they stayed at the hotel)?
"The only way to stay awake is to become a bird, or a cricket, or something of the sort,"
A bug?
Don't bug me when I'm workin'
