concert schedules PISSING ME OFF

every damn show (aside from the Old Blind Dogs show that's now my birthday present to ME!) i might possibly want to see this fall is happening on a fucking weekend.

the latest?  The Flower Kings (whom i've missed their last 3 tours because of conflicts) - SUNDAY Oct 15th.

crap crap crap crappity crap

i kill myself sometimes...

on a discussion of "Elaborate Mediocrity", someone mentioned the Mormon Temple, to which i clarified:

Re: The Mormon temple in Bethesda, MD - for those who don't travel the DC beltway on a daily/weekly basis, think the "Emerald City of Oz" peaking up 200 feet above the trees, with a golden Jesus at the top of the spire holding a golf club out and yelling "fore!" to the east, and you'll have it.

The traffic reporters still refer to one of the bridges over the beltway as the "Surrender Dorothy Bridge" (thanks to some now painted out letters a graffiti artist put there years ago).
