Just had a raisin bagel at a PC with a total of two raisins in it :rolleyes:.

You got the bonus raisin. Otherwise, they would be called raisins bagels.:rolleyes:

There were 3 winning Mega Million tickets last night - CA, OH, VA. Unfortunately, my tickets were not among them. :rolleyes:

Thanks for reminding me Unk. I figured if you didn't, I did....:D
I didn't.:(

Oh, and good morning box.

Oh, and for something softer, try The New Pornographers album "Challengers." Its a really great Canadian import. :cool:

I'm glad to see someone older than me listens to Alternative. My last several iTunes downloads have been rather eclectic and strange.

Wilco – I’m the Man Who Loves You.
Steely Dan – Do it again
Laura Marling – Crawled out of the sea
Israel Kamakawiwo’ole – Somewhere Over the Rainbow
F***ed Up – Son the Father
Fleet Foxes – Ragged Wood
The Felice Brothers – Frankie’s Gun!
Asobi Seksu – Nefi + Girly
Liquid Liquid – Optimo
Day One – Bad Before Good
The Be Good Tanyas - The Littlest Birds

Not very eclectic nor strange, but Coldplay will be giving away a free live album download
starting May 15. People seem to :D them or :rolleyes: them, but heck, it's free.

Steely Dan is one of my all time favorite groups. I highly recommend seeing them in concert as they actually sound just like their recordings.

Totally OT, I'm getting ready to head out for my son's soccer game this morning. Not sure if I love these 9am games or hate them. Getting up at 6am for a game on a Saturday isn't pleasant but having the afternoon free is.

Well, I made my connection frtom EWR-PHL, and the first flight of Xyzzy Family Mileage Run went fine. The agent at PHL was a bit surprised when 16 boarding passes came out of her ATP machine :eek: :p We're now on our IAH-SJC flight. I counted at least two other people making the same connection, but neither is an FTer. I got strange looks when I asked. I know at least one FTer is on the same itinerary as we're on today...

I had an interesting conversation with the LAS-EWR pilots after arrival this morning, but as they are closing the door right now I'll have to post about that later... See ya in California -- for an hour :p

The Eagles are another group that sound pitch-perfect from the recorded heyday.



One of the CO Q200's flew right over my head as I pulled up at the fiancee's yesterday.



In other news, does anyone want a new in box George Foreman grill? I'll post details if anyone does, but we bought the wrong kind over a year ago and the store refuses to take it back, despite that it's never been opened. We wanted to get a version with the removable plates.

Morning, Box.

I love Coldplay. My 18 year old son does too. Its really strange how the music I use to listen to Led Zep. Beatles, etc he likes. We had a 3 hour car ride up from Baltimore and I thought I would cringe at the music but I didn't.

Thanks for the headsup on COldplay. I will download.

Note to SFO. Personally I'd rather sleep in. Sons county meet for track is at 2:00pm today. He of course is still sleeping. Hope the soccer game goes well

Morning, Box.

We've got the GF Grill where the plates do not come out. Its no big deal to clean. We use it a lot. Don't you have any bridal showers that you are going to be going to. Just regift it.

Good idea. It is so much easier to clean. The regular one is a pita to clean.

Did you buy a ticket?:D

I love Coinstar. Just got an $80 credit for Amazon.

Just got room service at the Swissotel here in CHI. Their method to avoid cold toast? Bring a toaster with the tray and let you toast it yourself. ^^
