That about covers it. Heh...funny - "covers it" after "bathrobe" - err...nevermind...

[rimshot] Thank you!

I'm dating a blind woman. You know, you've really got to hand it to her.

Actually they own that golf cart. My parents live in Peachtree City where they have 150 odd miles of golf cart paths throughout the city. Most people have them. And they don't even play golf. Ask dave or dana.


Oh yeah, read this frightening article:

Nice article Dana. Its funny, when you tell someone yr. from "near ATL" and they say "where" and you say "Peachtree City" you can tell they know what you are talking about if they say "The place with the golfcarts," you can tell they are shining you on if they say "Oh yeah, Peachtree," because everywhere in ATL has a fucking Peachtree something near it. 8)

True dat. Or as my husband likes to say, the place with all the roads that go nowhere. Hey, gotta give some love to the planner of Peachtown (he was a Tech grad after all), but grid system/growth planning? PTC is not a shining example of that. I'm one of those "old schoolers" they talk about in the article that rode my bike and walked a lot of places. And taking a golf cart to school? In my day, you would have been committing social suicide. Get a real car, man! ;)

250gig WD hard-drive: It is installed and all 113 gigs of my mp3s have been moved from orig 200gig drive to the new one. joy to my world.

plextor dvd+-rw: It is installed and tested on cd-r, but i haven't made any dvd copies yet. i still have about 90 cd-r's stockpiled. i eventually will backup all 113gigs of music onto 26-ish dvd-r's. (probably more once i start runnin out of cd-r's.) the lore has come.

seinfeld, seasons 1-3, plus bonus disc: Wasn't expecting this nifty little treat. i'm not much into buying dvds anymore, but i don't mind this as a gift. Not at all. :) let me receive the king.

"downward spiral" nin: well, when i put it on my wishlist i didn't know that the only copy was SACD -and- that my computer wouldn't even recognize it as an audio disc. Just acted like nothing was in the drive. Disappointing. Best Buy would only accept an exchange on the opened album. Stuck, i sold it to a used cd store & used the credit to buy the wilco book. i'm about halfway through this superficial treat. The disc has about 3-or-4 pretty good songs, and the rest are decent wilco outtakes.

packer football: the jig is up. now you know my favorite nfl team. go packers!

packer watch: commemorating their superbowl I win. sure, that was ages ago, but it's the packers.

packer car floor covers: okay, now it's a bit much. they're my favorite team, but do i really need to check my packer watch during rush hour intermittently staring down at my packer floor covers? good gift from brother nonetheless.

grey sweater. my black sweater became damaged beyond repair late last year, finally have a new fill-in for those (recent) cold winter denver moments, and soon colder (by a couple degrees) broomfield moments.

las vegas tv controller video game: thrown in with the football. good game for when my pc is tied up, but nothing major. i'm thinking of "regifting" it for my gambling-addicted mom.

sports rules trivia game: thrown in with the football. covers a lot of sports i don't know much about. doubt i'll ever try it unless roughly cajoled by wife.

boxers & sox: i rarely set out to buy these unless my supply is near-shredded. i welcomed necessity.

hersheys kisses candy cane: from wife. tasty. (meant for both)


i forget what else. hopefully i didn't miss anything major.
