Hell yeah Conch, getting a good sway on!!
Dazzler - Not aimed at anyone in particular, i've been a mad fan of Leeds United for about 45 years, through good times and bad.
Today's was a massive achievement, I think it's the first time ever that the scummers have been giant killed in the FA cup.

Ahh....Blue_Moon.......Hopefully much less alcohol next time. Lots of water will help now. And get some good food in yer stomach.....that should help as well. My hugs to you ;-)
Slanshroom--LOL...The fuzzy orange noise just makes me laugh because it is such a contrast to the black shoes, white and green ribbon and various shades of green of this 4 leaf clover guy....he's about the size of my hand.
So, Slans.....shall I send some hugs your way to sooth the rough time you've been having with all the clueless, airhead politicians? When we pay taxes, we expect the monies will be allocated to renewing infrastructure, paying for the peoples' health needs and public interest. Yeah, if they don't account for all the spending and where it goes, etc....speak honestly about the why, what and where.....it makes me want to cry.......if only we could get through to these ppls. This isn't a freak sideshow.....this is the ppls business! I hope 2010 is a much better year for you. BTW, I like your joining in the T2J Comedy Show! ;-)

Oh how I love filing for unemployment. Ya get 3/4 of the way through the app, hit the next button, and a white page comes up that says SERVICE UNAVAILABLE. Sweet. Now I have to dick around with this all day trying to get a claim open. Dunno which is more irritating - the web, or going round and round on the phone menu they have. F it, I'll try later.
GO STEELERS!!

michelle - I guess I'm way out of the loop...did you lose your job? I didn't know that. :-( When did that happen?
California's unemployment system is so overloaded...phone lines are always busy and it takes them about a week to answer emails. It's nuts.
When I filed for unemployment last year, I did it online...but I waited until like midnight one night to do it. There aren't many people on the site at that hour, and my claim went right through...no computer problems at all.
So maybe consider doing it that way...?
...Austin...

Austin, no hon, it was a voluntary 2 week stint. Did it last year too. Retail after the new year goes to shit, so they ask if anyone wants to take a short lay off. My dept peeps usually take turns in 2 week bits. Since my claim is still open from last yr, I figgered I'd jump now instead of waiting till they make me go later when I'd have a waiting week again. Now I get to recover a bit from the busy season/holiday madness, and spend some time with my daughter while she's home from college. It's all gravy baby...cept the money part. lol! I left a note on my desk. I told them to enjoy the quiet :-), hold hands when they cross the street, and don't mess up my area and make me have to shank somebody when I come back. LOL!
And here's what I missed in Philly on NYE. Had to much other stuff going on to make it. Last time he played in Philly was feckin Black Friday. lol!

Its all good ...funny stuff..
Hey ,yesterday there was a brawl at my sons wrestling tourney. These two kids were wrestling and then one head butts the other. Ref does nothing.
Then the lil s.o.b. head butts the kid again. Ref nothing. Then they start slugging .....people jump up to pull 'um apart then adults start slugging and wrestlers start slugging and shouting ....
oh lord it was a mess...But most of the melee had to do with peeps from one town.... It was the biggest display of poor sportsmanship I have ever witnessed.
(my kid missed it all ,he was in the bathroom ..lol)
And after all that the ref was still going to let them finish the match...but peeps started booing and saying no.
Long story short the match was discontinued and the 2 young men did not get to wrestle the rest of the tourney.
Bright spot for this proud momma was when my son took home the top medal for the 215 lbs. bracket. He told me he listened to some Satriani & others with his I-Pod to get pumped up before his championship round ...... :-)

michelle - Ah, glad to hear things are OK then. I've been skimming T2J day to day instead of reading it properly for a while now, and I wondered if I missed something. The first "unread" post on T2J for me is from just after I got back from Chickenfoot in Lake Tahoe in freakin' September. I know I have some catching up to do, but I'm nuts if I think I'll read four months of stuff...haha. ;-)

michelle, it prolly sux but wouldn't it suck more if they scheduled you and made you drive all the way there to then send you home just after a couple of hours because it was not busy? that's what my old work used to do... in the end, we didn't make any money and our day was cut in half, we couldn't do anything else...

cosmic, it could be a lot worse. I'm actually very lucky to still have a job. Our hours were also cut, and they'll stay that way for prolly a few months. It's gonna make things even tighter around here, but like I said, I still consider myself one of the lucky ones. Getting sent home early, eh? That makes for a sucky paycheck.

I like Joe's hours. Travel the world for a few months, play a lot of music, make some nice cash, and then get six to nine months off.

I agree chelle, I know he's hurting too....and my heart hurts for him as I know many others hurt for him too.
6 to 9 months off Austin? I'd be willing to bet that Joe's seldom taken more than a few weeks at a time off, given all he's involved in, between writing music, recording, touring, developing pedals, amps, straps, picks, guitars...and prolly working on putting together G3's as much as possible...charity work, interviews, photo sessions....lordy, I don't know if many of us would survive his "off" time :) I'd love to see him take some personal time right now...at a time like this, you need time to yourself or with close family and friends to get ya through. But we know in less than one month his dvd will drop, and then in less than 2 months he's right back out there touring with The Hendrix Experience. Don't know how he does it....he's amazing.
Love and hugs to ya Joe, try to take it easy fer as long as you can, you deserve it :)
Now...as to this proven headache remedy....who's going to volunteer to do the necessary research, eh? :D
