Typewriter Standoff

From the NYT:

Last Typist Refuses to switch to laptop, gets boot from Writers Room in Greenwich Village

1) Last typist? Really?

2) Refuse, Resist!

Godspeed, Ronnie James Dio July 10, 1942-May 16, 2010

Im a wheel, Im a wheel I can roll, I can feel

And you can't stop me turning

Cause Im the sun, Im the sun I can move, I can run

But you'll never stop me burning

Come down with fire

Lift my spirit higher

Someones screaming my name

Come and make me holy again

Im the man on the silver mountain

Im the man on the silver mountain

Im the day, Im the day

I can show you the way

And look Im right beside you

Im the night, Im the night Im the dark and the light

With eyes that see inside you

Just look at me and listen

Im the man, the man, give you my hand

Come down with fire Lift my spirit higher

Im the man on the silver mountain

Im the man on the silver mountain

Im the night the light The black and the white

The man on the silver mountain

Thank you, Ronnie...

One May

One may forget to post in ones' blog/online journal/digital diary/web enabled rant machine from time to time. Perhaps it is due to dealing with actual life on F.O.B:YF that causes large posting rifts? Perhaps i am busily crafting an epic post that will change your life, cure disease, reverse polar ice shelf melting, make windows easy to use, drop 40 million dollars (U.S.) out of the sky directly in front of me, and make the flowers grow. Or not.

So instead of singing Puccini-esque arias to my purported genius, get thee to the toob or the Internets. It is derby day. If you'll excuse me, i gotta see a man about a horse...

p.s. it is still too cold for shorts and t-shirts. Spring, indeed.

The Great Lie of Spring...

To say that it has been raining since January would be bordering on hyperbole. However, i have just typed those words into the Internets, so it must be mostly true.

Life on F.O.B.Y.F has been a struggle recently, but we solider on. The search continues, chores must be done, horse must be appeased.

i'm beginning to wonder if staying positive is a mutually destructive dance of optimism and insanity?

i would be grossly understating myself if i were to say, "times are tough".

So i won't.

Happy Easter.
