Thanks Larry.I'm not sure where to begin. There are so many new threads with weird titles--even one about melons in Latin, apparently.

You need to always have a video camera ready, for posting on Youtube.
At the lake yesterday I saw this young guy run and try to jump onto this concrete step, which was really high, like 3 feet high. His foot caught on it and he fell flat on his face. I pretended I hadn't seen to allow him to experience his shame privately.

Right now I'm wondering who changed the mod titles... and then I think "I prefer the mystery." Every time I see "Heidi, the smiles of TC," I think of all those times when I was a kid and I'd say or do something spectacular and then get a "Goooood job, Heidi" with a pat on the head from one of the adults.

Lucky, as there is a lot of it going on.

Right now I'm shutting down the computer and preparing to head to the airport. My son and I are flying to Portland today, then driving to my mom's house in McMinnville. Over the weekend I'll leave him there with grandma while I join my wife in San Diego.
I exempt yours because I don't quite know what it means. Master? Maitre d'? The rest of them make me cringe...the heart, the soul, the smiles...some of them are just very Hallmarky. They also suggest that that person is the only person inside TC who embodies that trait. I just want them to go away...
"Canker sore" seems a little much for LG. But there are other unclaimed options to choose from:The unruly forelock of TC
The dainty philtrum of TC
The inflamed tennis elbow of TC
The alarming varicose veins of TC
The embarrassing but usually hidden dimple of TC
The nagging bone spur of TC
The inexorably receding hairline of TC
...and many, many more.
I meant that the old magazine ad is kind of cool, not the skin ailment, which is probably not cool at all. It's also kind of neat that Larry was able to find this thing on the web.

Would you settle for the PHILharmonic of TC? Or perhaps the PHILologist? What about the PHILomachus pugnax? That one comes complete with an "erectile neck ruff" in mating season.

I like dainty and bossy together. The best kind of moron is always an oxymoron.

I checked my blood pressure with my mom's BP machine this morning. I'm 105/60 with a pulse of 40 bpm. My pulse was lower (36) a little later in the day. Holy hell that seems low.
Breathing fine. I think it's all the bicycling that's brought it down (I used to have a resting rate in the mid-50 bpm range).
Phil, my BP is very similar. The docs always recheck it and ask if I am dizzy (insert smartass blonde joke here) or feeling lightheaded. Then I explain that I am very physically active and they get it. Hey, we have no where to go but up!
I'm hearing Goo Goo Dolls playing outside across the river tonight. Sound really travels over the widened channel. I know nothing of Goo Goo Dolls. Thunder storms in the area, too.
