    Saw Davey Jones on an Extreme Makeover Home Edition, he helped do some work for a family with a daughter who loves monkeys, has 4 daughters of his own! Still crazy after all thesse years.

  13. Hey Ruthie, honey, sweetheart, love of my life..... about that spare room you wanted to make into an office? Seems there's all these Yankees talking about coming over.
    What's that you say......where do we put all the beer?
    Now... don't you worry about THAT!



    (It would be a great priviledge and something we would love to accomodate, guys. You are all welcome....one at a time!! Come see Australia, before it becomes part of the Ummah. And truth be told....I only drink occassionaly! A visitor or two, from the US of A, would be one of those occassions!):mrgreen::lol::eek:

  19. are you feeling okay, elbro? i certainly hope so.

    it's snowing in south africa.

    we saw a flock of canadian geese in a field the other morning on our way to work. it was 85 degrees at seven a.m. the geese looked stupified. we don't usually see these geese until september or october...hmmmmm...

    Comment by nanc— 2006/08/03 @ 07:14 AM — (Reply)

  20. I don't doubt the geese look stupefied. That's how I feel in this heat with two car breakdowns in one day (two different vehicles).

  21. EB,

    I know you play guitar, but can you pick a banjo? I can turn a wrench or two, I bought a banjo a few months back, maybe we swap lessons? ;-)

    Any fan of Stevie Ray is a friend of mine!

  24. you're right kevin, but SRV doing anything is pretty close to heaven..I like his version of Hendrix's Voodoo Chile..his stuff is so raw...Have you ever seen the tribute or heard the tribute album? Bunch of blues legends playing SRV...I enjoyed it.
