Hothothotohtohothototh....hot, or should that be Hooottttt

Too damned hot, can't do anything, can't get down to anything, can't leave the room, can't start anything, can't finish anything........yargkk..............New York is stinky hot just now and the bogus meteorologist says it's going to be hot all week, stuck in a quixotic heat induced dream!

dam

give me cold RAIN any day, need the atmosphere or my brain will swell to the size of a small raisin and all I will want to eat is avocado 24/7!

Positive news, sometimes seems so far fetched....

Yes positive news does sometimes seem far fetched....

After my much maligning, moaning, mumbling and many more Mmmm's, namely Mcfiggin Donald's, scourge of your undersides, inflater of your intestines, rotter of your health, umm, discolourer of your high streets.... you get the gist ..... anyway Greenpeace has made a difference:


McDonald's joins fight to save the Amazon
Take your hand off the mouse. Now reach over your shoulder, and pat yourself on the back. Because you did it. The mighty McDonald's jumped when you objected to their role in Amazon destruction. After only a few months of being in the spotlight over rainforest destruction, and receiving more than 30,000 emails, McDonald's not only made a U-turn in no longer sourcing soya from the ashes of the Amazon but are also actively urging other companies to join them. This week the world saw what happens when tens of thousands of Greenpeace supporters from all over the world act together as one to protect the environment. So take a bow, smile and accept our heartfelt thanks for your efforts.

My email is in there, and I said something nasty, and I won't take it back just because they have stopped,this doesn't excuse them from starting in the first place

and they treat there animals like crap, and there customers like animals! Nuff said.

Next stop KF-riggin-C-rap........................

This Blog Is Specially Designed to Preserve Freshness. Shake Well for Best Taste.

My throat is sore. It started happening at around three this afternoon, and it's going to stop happening any minute now. I have lots to do this week, and there's no room for symptoms. Dinner tonight = Tropicana.

But that's not why I'm posting this fine evening. This post goes out to Friend Sue, because I am unable to post a comment on HER blog on account of I'm not a LiveJournal user, so I figure I'll just leave my comment here on Our House In Jersey and hope that she catches it if/when she checks in. Only ... I just realized that, between exiting Friend Sue's blog, remembering my blogger login password, pouring another mug of No Pulp OJ, and telling y'all about my sore throat, well, I've completely forgotten what my comment was going to be. It was along the lines of, "Thanks for mentioning me on your blog," or, "I had fun," only far more charming and witty. Oh, well.

You know what? This is exactly the sort of nonsense I should delete, and not post, and stop typing right now. But ... well, it's just easier to hit 'Publish Post' than to delete it all. Sorry.

I have no idea what this is about, and I'd like to keep it that way.

I bet you don't have brass bands in front of your house

This is so New Jersey. It was preceded by a firecracker show... I believe today must be "Feast of the Assumption" or something like that.

3rd time lucky

Ok here we go again! Spin the wheel of whimsy


Aries
I'm wearin'
Fur pyjamas
I ride a
Hot Potata'
It's tickling my fancy
Speak up, I can't hear you

Taurus
If I've got to run instead of feeling proud
If I've got to find you in a big wide crowd
No doubt the country side is waiting for me
There ain't no answer to what I say.

Gemini
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
And the superstars sucked into the supermassive
Supermassive black hole
Supermassive black hole
Supermassive black hole

Caner
now here's the sun, it's alright! now here's the moon, it's alright!
now here's the sun, it's alright! now here's the moon, it's alright!
but everytime you close your eyes, lies!

Leo
Hashem S'fasai tiftach u-fee yagid tehilasecha
Hashem S'fasai tiftach u-fee yagid tehilasecha

Open up my lips and my mouth shall declare your praise
Open up my lips and my mouth shall declare your praise

Virgo
Fuck it man (Funny, man?)
I've been told
All that glitter is not gold
And gold is not reality,
Momma, real is what you laid on me

Libra
I remember it was that Wednesday
Oh when it rained and it rained
They traipsed mud all over the house
It took hours and hours to scrub it out
All over the hall carpet
I took my mop and bucket
And I cleaned and I cleaned
The kitchen floor
Until it sparkled
Then I took my laundry basket
And put the linen all in it
And everything I could fit in it
And all our dirty clothes that hadn't gone into the wash
And all your shirts and jeans and things
And put them in the new washing machine
Washing machine
Washing machine

Scorpio
So many lies
So many lies
So many lies
So feel the love come off of them
And take me in your arms
Peel all of your layers off
I want to eat your artichoke heart
No more leaky holes in your brain
And no false starts

Sagittarius
They got the mustard out!

Capricorn
Big smiles, everyone.
You beat the bad guy.
What a lot of fun
You guys have been real swell
And there’s not a one who can say
This ended well

Aquarius
Do you know that hue of my new blue jeans?
Can you judge the mood of the preteens?
Shrink my dreams to fit me with those laser beams.
To roll with rollerina is never quite as it seems.

Pisces
But then you see someone new
And you want someone new
So you have someone new
I don't blame you
We would all do the same as you
If ever we had the nerve to

Virtual Silence

Well, it occurred to me that I never keep up on things. That, in addition to the fact that I spend hours aimlessly searching the internet for who knows what (rarely interesting or important), inspired me to add a bookmark folder of blogs that my friends have made (or that I've just found somewhere and liked). Moray is way ahead of me on this, his illustrious bookmark folder has many categories, thoroughly catalogued, and he knows just where to find everything. Me, I still google the same thing 50 times instead of just bookmark it somewhere. Not to mention the bookmarks I DO have, are really boring and out of date. Do I really need a tab for google, when I have a google search box built into my browser?

Wow, I'm boring. But I digress. All of this leads to the fact that now I have a blogs folder, NO ONE has updated their blog in weeks. I guess everyone isn't as exciting as I thought they were. Although I will point our daily readers to Mr. Van Brink's Schnitzelmusik, which has a great sale on composer/food related t-shirts. My favorite was Ligeti and Meatballs. Rest his soul.

Speaking of mourning, I, like many other New Yorkers, I imagine, are grieving at the thought of missing out on Radiohead last month at MSG. Unfortunately, my clicking finger just wasn't fast enough. Although apparently Ed Norton and one of the Bush twins (AND her bodyguards) all have fingers of lightning. Guffaw. Apparently they ended the first show with my fave, "How To Disappear Completely." Sigh. I watched a video on youtube of the show, and when they got to the part "Stroooobe lights, and blown speakers", the crowd suddenly started singing very loudly, and very out-of-tune. It's awesome. If I wasn't too lazy to create a link, I'd link. But I'm too lazy ass.

I'm sure after all that, there must be something interesting for me to say. Oh! We had a great 4th of July party, although we forgot to take pictures, so you'll all have to take my word for it. However, someone left behind a sad, lonely Wholefoods bag, which Basil is holding hostage in exchange for some tasty gibblets. I think it belongs to the Van Brunts. Anyone know?






Meanwhile, Moray has been busy making the world a more beautiful place.

What - er

As if the idea of 'Dasani' water isn't offensive enough, why on earth does Coke-a-cola add salt to it? It'll 'Make your mouth water' alright!!!

Why do creative people sell out to multinationals?

Help me people, for I am lost
