Tuesdays with Muerte

I made some music last week on my computer. This guy said he would mix it for me but he said he wouldn't be back here until the year 2045. I'd be 57 by then and the I'm pretty sure the music trends will have drastically changed. So I decided to bag the whole business arrangement. He seemed kind of shady anyway...

I have never seen this "Terminator" show, but I loved Summer Glau in Joss Wheaten's Firefly series. She has some pretty funny expressions in this photo set. Check out the blatant plug for FOX on the water bottles below. Summer looks Jea-lous!

1. Instead of you, say thou. Instead of y’all, say thee. 2. Rhymed couplets are all the rage. 3. Men are Sirrah, ladies are Mistress, and your friends are all called Cousin. 4. Instead of cursing, try calling your tormenters jackanapes or canker-blossoms or poisonous bunch-back’d toads. 5. Don’t waste time saying "it," just use the letter "t" (’tis, t’will, I’ll do’t). 6.

To add weight to your opinions, try starting them with methinks, mayhaps, in sooth or wherefore. 9. When wooing ladies: try comparing her to a summer’s day. If that fails, say "Get thee to a nunnery!" 10. When wooing lads: try dressing up like a man. If that fails, throw him in the Tower, banish his friends and claim the throne. * EXCELLENT SOURCE - YOU MUST CHECK THIS OUT! There is a neat instru...

Recently, I heard that Thanksgiving Point boasts the largest collection of dinosaur bones in the world. I had a difficult time accepting that claim because I grew up in Seattle, host to the great Seattle Science Center. The Center has multiple buildings dedicated to dinosaur models. Granted, the models are life-like replicas of dinosaurs and not real animal bones. But what about that other place in Utah that has dinosaurs?!  And I'm sure other place have bones.  I'm in denial. One day, I will have to accept the truth.

Punch the crosswalk button in the following rhythm: 3x slow 2x fast 1x slow 2x fast 3x slow The actual traffic signal light should* then immediately begin to change. *This has only been proven to work in parts of California. It does NOT work at the intersection of Center Street and Freedom Blvd. in Provo, UT.

I attended a great bbq at Becca's house for Memorial Day. Her brother owns two dogs that are humongous. Their names are Duke and Molly. Their breed is something of a mystery: One part German Shepherd, One part Lab and one part grizzly bear.

I wish I had a sturdy pair of work clothes like these when I was young. I would have torn it up in the back yard.
