Amuse String!

I don't know if it amuses you but it does amuse me:

After 3 years of wearing kilts McMurdo has yet to get a kilt check !

I thought I'd show you the cardigan I've been knitting.

This one is gonna be for me, I'm getting really tired of being the one in the store bought sweaters. I enjoy knitting for others, but only if I feel like they really will appreciate it.

Yay! You deserve a nice one, too. Here's hoping you continue to feel better.

Hmm, I am planning on applying to graduate school in Columbia, and there is a possibility of a visit there

If the timing is right, we should organize a side trip to Conyers! It's actually easier to get to than Atlanta proper.

Sorry you are not feeling well still. I hated being sick at college because it meant not going to classes I found interesting and stimulating (there were some). By comparison, being sick in high school was great becasue you didn't want to go to school anyway. Being sick now that I am a responsible working person is even worse, because I have to choose between not going and making my partners work harder to cover my share of the work, or going and running the risk of making everybody at work come down with the same illness I have, then having to work extra when they take off sick. No win situation.

I will try my best to cheer you up a little, though, with a simple joke. Better put down the chicken soup, though, as I do not want to be responsible for you going to the hospital for aspirating a noodle or something. Ready?

Why did God make farts stink?




wait for it.











So deaf people could enjoy them too.



Hope you are feeling better soon.

The flu?!? Gah! I was down the flu (most likely of the swine variety) all last week myself. I wish I had thought to start a thread asking for personal amusement. Instead I hit the "new posts" button about once every 45 seconds and read ALL of McMurdo's and Newsome's blogs.
Get lots of sleep, drink plenty of fluids (even tea, though I know I was sick of it by day 3), get some Tamiflu and FEEL BETTER!

So when will String amuse us?

[fluter]

To be accompanied by ukelele, mandolin, or claw-hammer banjo.

You are our stringthing, our only stringthing.
You keep us toasty when toes are chill.
You'll never know, dear, how much we love you.
Please get well, we hate that you're ill.

With apologies to Jimmie Davis, Charles Mitchell, Paul Rice, Oliver Hood, or whoever th'heck really wrote the song.

Here's something amusing:



These are seals/sea lions/second cousins on a rock in Monterey Bay, CA, last summer. They might still be there, for all I know.
