maybe that has somethin' to do with the cigars and MREs...

Certainly explains the Threadkiller connection...

Our water table has been so low we have wells drying up.

Last year it was like that here. People were taking water from what was left of ponds and bringing it home to flush toilets with, and washing with either bottled water or at the houses of friends who lived in town. As I said before, I was living at home (with my parents) for the summer because I was in the process of buying my little house, and their well went completely dry by mid-summer.

You don't realize how much you use water until you have NONE, trust me! The water table STILL hasn't completely recovered, though it's been a pretty wet summer.

Oh good! Do you need someone to post the Spock link again?

No thanks...I'm all set for now. (And then some!)

However, I DID save that video on my hard drive at home so I can inflict it on my poor unsuspecting brothers...

I do understand. I've been p'od at my neighbors on either side all summer long. They both have the "perfect" yards, and they've been watering all along. The night before our restrictions set in, they both ran their sprinklers most of the night.

But you know what. I don't water my "lawn" and haven't even mowed since June. But today, it looks as good as theirs.

OK! I finally got to listen to your Meg sound clip! First my computer didn't want to make any sound, then our internet connection was down for a time and I couldn't get to it.

I've heard Swallowtail Jig in Em so much that it sounds really odd to me played in what would be Am(?) on the C whistle. Funny, because it's exactly the same tune! But at first all I could think was how strange it sounds. I like the lower sound, though.

And I think I have the beginnings of WHOA even though I haven't been playing whistle much...I mean, if a Meg is only $2.80...why not, right? Hmmm...I usually order from Elderly once every few months anyway. We'll see!

Didn't have water after Fran came through....missed the water worse than the air conditioning and other electrical doo dads.

This is the version I use. Supposedly it's in D. I looked it up on that ABC tunefinder site.

Sure, next time you order, just have them drop a Meg in...the shipping won't cost any more.

LOL! It's going to take a while to research all the members of the Threadkiller family it seems.

Thinking three months ahead, now...any opinions on if the extended "gift" edition of TLOTRTFOTR is worth the extra $30 or so for the extra National Geographic disc and the little fanboy toys? And the best place to buy it, if so?

I've seen the National Geographic thing on TV....don't really need to see it again. (I think 2JM has those disks.) How badly do you want the fanboy toys?
