today is monday 24 january 2005.

the moon was weird this morning . . . set in the west . . . .

why do we always have hawaiian day? why not nebreskan day? or be like a new yorker day?

snow out east . . . so exciting this takes a line in my blog . . . the weather out in denver is spring-like.

people ask me if my cactus is for real . . . i tell them to squeeze it to find out . . .

today is friday 21 january 2005.

valentine's day is coming up . . . big grip in life--why do we celebrate this? goes against our protestant heritage . . . and this cupid person--why the mess do we elevate the status of a naked baby holding a deadly weapon?

raleigh, north carolina . . . it snows an inch, and the whole place freaks out.

pf changs is supposed to open in hawaii . . . so thrilling this takes a line in my blog.

today is wednesday 19 january 2005.

warm here in denver. i think it's 65 degree out. warm for a january.

stock show in town. so exciting, this takes a line in my blog.

actually what was exciting was seeing the dog show in the stock show (this was on tv). there was a bulldog named porkchop. so they have the other dogs jump over the fence, and porkchop tries to also--but beinng a bulldog, porkchop plows right through the fence. and porkchop starts chewing on the fence for good measure.

i need to name my next computer porkchop.

today is monday 10 january 2004.

it's official. shawn green is no longer a dodger. this stinks. but worse if i had named a dog shawn green. then i'd have to rename the dog.

which makes me laugh--no wonder the shawn green jerseys were such a big sell during Christmas. so where the beltre ones.

for the record--the only impact dodgers from last year that remain are bradley, izturis, gagne, od perez, weaver, and ishii. everyone one else is gone. don't get a 2004 dodger calender--most of those guys aren't dodgers anymore.

reading hadji's blogs scares me. yes, we do get older, but no i haven't resorted to diet coke. or sugarless coffee. actually there was a time in life when i used to drink coffee black--but heartburn was not worth the claim to manliness.

amahl and the night visitors--love this operetta. the line on friday that made me scream . . . amahl is singing, "there are not two kings outside, the kings are three, and one of them is very tall!" i laughed.

did i mention the meatloaf incident on the plane over Christmas? i'm on the san fran to honolulu flight--i'm sitting on the last row next to the window. they've got choices for a meal--pasta or meatloaf. but on the last row, they run out of meatloaf. greivous.

today is wednesday 05 january 2005.

new year. so exciting take this takes a line in my blog. the year of the rooster for those into the Chinese signs.

tsunami was massive. i estamate 81 trillion square feet of water was displaced. lots of water.

cold this morning. car didn't start. ironic this happens the same day shawn green gets traded from the dodgers to the diamondbacks.
