lunch with maniacs

by

I went to a lunch time lecture today by Peter Whybrow. The lecture was pretty good. His website is a little wacky with animations, sounds and a needlessly ponderous flash quiz (I scored 5). I might try to go to the library and get his book.

sudoku crazy

Sometimes I jump in quickly, sometimes I don’t. With Sudoku it was latter but I’m here now. It’s amazing how quickly time slips away while doing these stinking puzzles. Five minute frozen dinners are ready in a blink of the Sudoku obsessed eye.

smelly shoes

by

Today, in this promo newsletter I get for Cafe 50’s, a cool local diner, I saw this “tip”.

Are your shoes smelly: Here is a solution. Put some tea leaves into a pair of stockings and stuff each into a shoe. Leave for a day or two and the smell just vanishes!

Um… Wouldn’t your shoes just smell like tea? So isn’t the real question what kind of tea leaves would you want your shoes to smell like?

The Police

YAHOO! I’ve said for years I would pay any price for tickets should the Police get back together. Here they come!!! I’m so excited. Should I go to Vancouver, Boston, NY or wait for concerts out this way. I don’t know!? Maybe all of them. Oh my god. I sound like a 15 year old school girl hot for Sting! Oh boy oh hoy!

Very funny steve jobs parody from SNL courtesy of nbc and youtube. And, don’t.. I repeat don’t! Don’t try to find pair’s figure skating accidents on youtube. It will be funny for a moment, but then it gets painful.

Pookie passes

by

Pookie Hudson, writer and singer, passed away Tuesday. Goodnight Sweetheart (iTunes link) is one of his classic songs made into a favorite of mine in Three Men and a Baby. I heard about his passing away tonight on the way home. Total bummer.
