Have finally settled into my room at Kidani.

Big problem is it's raining. Hard and often. Welcome to Florida.
Only animals stupid enough to be out are the ostriches... Humans,
too.

So I'm staying in tonight. I'm having a small pour of 18yo Macallan's
to celebrate. :-) I bought a couple of strings of lights and a couple
of stockings at DD, so I think I'll decorate the room tonight in
anticipation of PiC's arrival on Sunday. (Don't tell her...)
HAhahaha...

The TV's are 1080i (or so my blu-ray player says), and it looks darned
good, so if you're a videophile, you can play hi-def through the
breakout boxes via hdmi. (Blue Man Group - How to be a megastar live
is on right now...)

Personal note to Lisa: Thanks again for the coffee cup. I was able
to get into Days of Christmas today for laughs, AND THEY DIDN'T HAVE
ANYMORE!

Bummner.

Anyway, I'm baaaack!

Yep, it sure is raining.

My wife, ever vigilant about my health, refused to let me out of the
house. Watching endless reruns of "Deadliest Catch" is no substitute for
a day at an RADP meet!

Better luck to us all tomorrow.

Supposedly yes. Thunderstorms tomorrow morning. Will not go well
with the parade taping... But rain is going to taper off. Sez the
weather guyz...

That would be nice. Minus the Setter. I'm not sure they'd appreciate

Drinking very fine Scotch and decorating might not be the right combo. I
am sure PiC will appreciate your artistic touches.

PIC = Pressurized Ion Chamber

These are used to detect changes in ambient gamma radiation due to human
activities.

We have several of them "networked" here at the RADP Pavilion to provide
evidence that our nuclear power plant is not leaking.

Please ignore that healthy "Blue Glow" that accompanies many of the
pavilion staff!

I have a power strip, but I purposely bought a power strip with a
short cord. The task was almost impossible until I found out you can
access an electrical outlet from the bottom shelf of the dresser.

Yeah, the nuts are my Christmas tree. Deck the halls with cans of

Good stuff. Been a Cooper fan ever since original NIGHTMARE tour

Thanks, Vully.

I have the Alice disc on Blu-Ray, don't know if it's on DVD. (It
should be... They released a lot of the Montreux Jazz Festival
concerts on disc.)

It's a lot of "Oh, yeah, I remember that tune!". Of course, I was
drinking scotch that night... But I would recommend it to an Alice
fan.

Got a chance to see it in person today. I'm nominating Keane for RADP

I'm thinking of asking him to be here whenever I visit again.

yeah, well, whatever. Maybe I should really wear my glasses

Reminds me of a story that I tell whenever I'm not restrained! :)

There were two guys who lived in New England. They were good friends
but highly competitive, each trying to out do the other. One had to
move away to Southern California. One day, his friend received a
letter with a picture enclosed. On the picture was his friend, in
short sleeves, leaning against a lawnmower. Written on the back of the
picture was; "This was taken on Dec. 25th!"

The friend sent back a picture of his own. This one had HIM, sitting
in a comfortable chair before a roaring fire with a Scotch in his
hands and a dog at his feet. On the back of THIS picture, the friend
wrote; "What a pity you're still mowing the grass on Christmas Day!"

Yep, I'd second that nomination. Keane is a great guy. :-)

So cute! I did hang a couple of stockings, and a few bows - but this is
way cooler.

Oh, if you're ever in that room (7530), you can use the hooks I left
on the top of the dresser... :-)
