Lets see if this works...

Live in Paris DVD at Amazon

You can also get the cd if you look around :)

She is truely a treasure of Oregon. lol!

I don't think I'm going to pre-order it. I'll have it faster if I just go pick it up at Best Buy instead of waiting for shipping.

rant alert...

I have a question...

Who are the geniuses that make up the chain emails that say "This will bring you good luck, but if you don't send it to 32 people in the next 2 minutes, something horrible will happen to you!" WTF is the compulsion to make this shit up and send it off? What's even worse is the yahoo's who do it - and send it to YOU! I mean really, is there that much witchery or voodoo floating around in emails ferchristsake? I doubt it very much. If it's a good forward, DELETE the bullshit at the bottom and send it on! I mean, if somebody takes a dump on my front porch and leave a note with a pretty balloon on it telling me I have to take a dump on 7 porches in the next 15 minutes...get my point? Sheep I tells ya SHEEP!

end of rant :-)

thank you, enjoy the veal! (gag)

hybes - There's a track list at Amazon for that greatest hits album.

It doesn't look like there's anything too special about it, aside from track 5 being listed as "Summer Song / Interview"...I wonder what that could be, but I'm not going to buy the album just to find out. I bet it's a recycled clip from something that came out way back when.

Hmmm...roo, do you know of a "Summer Song / Interview" track on any of your older CD singles or promo items?

and in my dream I was freaking out going" OH my God its ...Joe Satriani !

and my family was like Whats wrong with you? Then the dream ended but in the dream I was thinking...Wow He is really a down to earth person.

Mikesb - I said happy feckin birthday, dijjer not notice? Or are you trying to pretend it's not happening ya curmudgeonly grumpy old bastid! LOL

and it's coming this waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!

I know scubadaz's post was in jest, but I think weather like this just shows how little we know about the earth's clilmate patterns. Maybe the earth has gotten a few degrees warmer in recent years, but is more carbon dioxide really the cause? Our atmosphere is 75% nitrogen, 20% oxygen, a bunch of other stuff, and only 0.04% carbon dioxide. Even if it did go from 0.03% to 0.04% in the last 100 years, can such a small increase really have such a big effect on the temperature?

I'm all for being aware of what we consume and trying to reduce waste...and all numbers aside, smog in LA just looks horrible and it'd be great to have cleaner transportation so the skies here would be clear. But some of these arguments get so much publicity, you'd think there's more carbon dioxide than anything else in our atmosphere. Argh...just something that's been bugging me lately.

Anyway, it's beautiful, sunny, and 67 degrees here in Long Beach today. ;-)

Hey Everyone:

We're having some WInter Storm Watch or Snow Advisory here and they have already closed a lot of school, church, and work-related events tonight. Right now, the temperatures are in the 10s-20s. We also have about 5 inches of snow (as of right now). There will be more snow tonight, but it should let up by tomorrow and the next few days.

Luckily, I have today and tomorrow off so I can just sleep in and take care of some other business.

Yesterday I went out in the cold to go running with my running group. I put in 11.5 miles, which was pretty good.

Earlier today, I signed up online at Sunburst Races and I'm confirmed for the marathon. It's also USATF Certified so that means I have a chance to qualify for Boston (again), but it will be for 2011 I think. The race is not until the first Saturday of June so I do have time to train/condition more. I hope I can qualify.

Cheese 101and Zinc Master: Thanks for the post and link on Joe's upcoming CDs and DVD.

I went ahead and preordered them on Amazon already. OH YEAH!!

Do The Stu: Thanks for the post as well on Joe. Earlier, you mentioned about going out for a jog. Have you done anymore lately? Maybe you should enter in for a jog/run around your area and try out for fun. I'm signed up for three already: One in Indianapolis, one here in Fort Wayne, and (recently) one in South Bend (IN). Who knows, someday I might come out to California and do a run out there.

Michelle: Hope you and your family are prepared when this Winter weather arrives. BTW, good luck to the Eagles in the playoffs against the Cowboys. Maybe they'll have better luck when they meet again.
