Just thought I'd start a thread off for whatever..............
Sally - you ate too much without dessert? That's shameful! You always have dessert when you eat out! That's why you only eat half your dinner so you have room.

Oh I am very far from anorexic.. But I do have eating out down to an art... There are rules to etiquette Rule #1: Dessert is a must. Rule #2: When having drinks, try to make it there during Happy Hour - two for the price of one.... Rule #3: Dessert is a must (smile)
You have yellow socks?!?!?! And you cant say you saw a cool car unless you describe it and even post a pic.. Some of us LIKE cars.... Jag....*sigh*

Does anyone here like opera? I just listened to a very intense one recently. It's called Bandanna, and it's supposed to be a modernized version of Shakespear's Othello. Even if you're not in to Shakespear, I would highly recommend this opera to anyone. The end almost brought me to tears (which is very hard to do to me...). In any case, if anyone's interested I can give you the tracks from my cd. Just pm me or get in touch. :)
p.s. - "To live is to sleep, to die is to awaken." - a reoccuring line from Bandanna

Oh, I forgot to mention, the composer of Bandanna is Daron Aric Hagen.

Good afternoon, Slim....good afternoon, everyone...I hope you all are having a fab day!....just got back from a major shopping trip to a fairly largish town near me called Watford....I managed to get EVERYTHING I needed for school in one go which impressed me greatly. All I want to do now is relax, maybe Stumble a bit and check out some poems.

Ooooh, I miss pumpkin carving. :) Wish I could be there with you. :) HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE!!! hehe
p.s. I am currently working on a short story for Halloween called "Ghost Train". It is based off of a piece of the same name by Eric Whitacre. The piece is...interesting...lots of cool sound effects and things like that. I know it frightened me a few times when I heard it...but oh man...that piece is such a trip. Anyways, hopefully you all don't get too scared tonight. Protect the little ones if you're going trick or treating with them. :)

Whitacre put three of Ogden Nash's poems, The Panther, The Cow, and The Firefly, and he is conducting it with a choir.
Oh, and this is for you Poe...yum-yum. :D
