Upside-Down, Drunken Bees
November 12: Bees definitely should not fly drunk. When tanked, they spend more time upside-down. "Alcohol affects bees and humans in similar ways – it impairs motor functioning along with learning and memory processing," said Julie Mustard, a study co-author and a postdoctoral researcher in entomology at Ohio State University. Because the honey bee nervous system is similar to that of vertebrates, Mustard and colleagues hope future research will show how chronic alcohol use affects humans. Image: Ohio State

civgeek: It wasn't aimed at you, it was just the only civil engineering joke I've ever heard ;-)
If you ever get a splinter in your finger, DON'T leave it in there thinking it will get better. Had to go get my finger lanced and x-rayed today, and a dose of antibiotics. Still looks nasty.

Quoted from an interview during G-3 2003:
Joe Satriani Interview
Kim Jones speaks with the guitarist after a G3 Show
10/29/03 [http://guitar.about.com/cs/interviews/a/g3_satriani.htm]
"Kim: Do you have a "closet" song? By that, I mean a song that you like, but you're kind of embarrassed to admit?
Joe: Boy, you know, I'm never embarrassed to admit anything. (laughs) I've probably already said things that I should regret. A closet song..... You know, the other night the guys walked in on me and I was just about to take a shower after the show. Steve and Yngwie were wondering where I went because I left the stage a little early. I was standing there in my boxer shorts when they walked in and, of course, I was wearing my Sponge Bob boxers. That created quite a stir and they've been bugging me quite a bit. They want me to walk on stage like that. So I supposed I'm kind of stuck on the Sponge Bob song. (laughs)"
Dontcha think Joe is just DEELIGHTFUL??? LOL!!

Just spent 8 hours in the ER with my pop. He FINALLY agreed to go today. We sat for almost FIVE hours before they took him back into curtains. He was in so much pain. Poor dude. After taking about 15 (no lie) vials of blood, chest x-ray, ekg and whatnot, they finally told us that they're pretty sure he has a severe kidney infection (UN effin' diagnosed on Thurs.) His blood sugar went from 436 on Thurs. down to 331 tonight, and they think something else is going on because he's all swelled up and has severe arthritic pain throughout his body, but they don't know what till more test results come back. I'm just sooo relieved he's finally in the hospital. Some men are so damn stubborn!
We had the pleasure of being entertained by one of the DUI's they brought in. He was drunk off his ass. From the conversation it seems like he was combative when they got him, and there was a good scuffle to get him under arrest. He was nice, then nasty, then nice. lol! On one of his nasty jags he called the one cop a fat bastard and told him he'd shove a donut up his ass. Now there a night of fun! Seems he thought that since he served his country, he should get some respect from the cops. Ya don't get much respect from a cop when you're telling him your going to kick his ass. lol! The other 2 DUI's were quiet. One was an older woman, the other a younger guy. I felt bad for all the sick people who had to put up with his yelling, however I did feel very protected by the 6 or so cops on the other side of our curtain. lol!
There were so many people in the ER! The doc told us that over 100 patients were seen during the 3 to 11 shift. The waiting room was packed when we got there, and packed when we left.
So anyways, I want to say THANKS to cuth and everyone else who helped me over the past few days. I'm so glad my pop is finally in the hospital and I can stop "guessing* how to take care of him and what's wrong. Now I have to worry about my son who has some sort of virus going on today :( This is not a good time for a bug to be going around *groan*
Night peeps.

michelle; thats definitely good to know. take care.
cheese101; lol Spongebob boxers on Joe. Thats way too funny!
However, I really hate Spongebob. He annoys the living hell out of me. I wanna beat him up and use his spongy ass to wipe my toilet seat and then flush him down the toilet. Spongebob sucks.

dear Joe and dear alls, hello !!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m for the first time at this site and I’m impressed. First of all, I would like to say “thanks a lot” to you, Joe, for your beautiful music. I’ve never heard about it before, I couldn’t even imagine such a thing… I don’t play any musical instrument but I’m a great admirer of music, I can’t just live without it.
I’ve got to know about your music just recently. And I’m grateful to a person thanks to whom I can enjoy now beautiful musical pieces. To tell you the truth, that’s why I’m here, to thank him as well. I love this person and I want him to know it. His name is Christian. He plays the guitar. He is a super cool guy and he adores your music.
So, Chris, if you too read these lines, I’m telling you for the 100th time that you’re super and I miss you.
Byeeeeeeeee dear alls and thanks for your attention.

nothing like a random post after not being here for awhile... so... how's everyone doing?
michelle, nice to see you're still around. Wow, sorry to hear that you father has been sick. But im glad he's in good care at the hospital. And well wishes for your son too... flu season is never fun. Im actually in Thailand right now... haha, ya know.. I like to randomly leave the country every so often for a month or two, haha. But this place really is a beautiful spot... I actually spent the last 2 hours listening to a monk tell me about Buddhism. Im having so many great experiences here. Anyway, hope things are going well with you.
And of course... just a little shout out to Alexandre, Ovation, Mari, juju, Do the Stu, and everyone else... hope you guys are doing well... oh, and of course... Hi Joe!!
Peace from the far east...
mike

Mr Nick, the 10-day dutch trip wouldn't work for me cause I'm going to The Aching Hunger Pt II with my sister and her partner and we're staying with their friends near A'dam, who are also coming, and it'd be a bit rude of me just to say "right, I'm off!". haha.
Still, let me know if you do intend to go to The Aching Hunger!
