  Welcome to the OFFICIAL Friday/Saturday Night Singles' Thread 

January 27th and 28th, 2006

 

"We're Gonna Have a Good Time Tonight...Let's Celebrate...It's All Right!"

 

   

 

 

In store for tonight:

 

I read a fascinating article in the February 2006 issue of Popular Mechanics entitled "The Flying Luxury Hotel."  Rather than a cruise ship, it functions as a cruise craft -- but the potential for this new aircraft also extends to military and commercial freighting applications.  More information can be found here.  Let me know what you think!

 

Further thoughts:

 

Would someone please buy the St. Louis Blues to end the misery?  Please?

 

What is/are your pet peeve(s)?

*sigh* Been a long week.

It appears your week wasn't too great. Run in's with your neighbor or job stuff?

[RosieCotton]

About 1300 miles. ;-) Still, my last move was more like 2000 (from VT to CO), so I guess this isn't so bad, depending on one's perspective. ;-)

[Amityschild]

Hello, hello, hello...this is my first *cough* offical appearance. Hidee Ho neighbors!

[scott7278]

Well, I will continue to pray for you!

[RosieCotton]

No-job stuff, mostly. ;-)

Actually, the neighbor apparently got a gaming system of some sort this week, so instead of rap, we've been bombarded with vroom-vrooming and car crashes and explosions.

Sadly, it's *far* more musical. Almost pleasant. All hail the X-Box!

But tonight he's playing rap again. I've just got headphones on so I can drown it out with my own music!

[Amityschild]

What was the big deal about Jeeps at the Detroit show? I saw some glimpses on TV, but never followed up. I ask because I have a Red Jeep X Wrangler, wondered what the differences might be.

[ozarkgirl]

So where are you going?

[Kate of Spice Island]

Howdy, all!

[scott7278]

WELCOME!!!

Good to have you here on this fine evening!

[Amityschild]

Okay...I'm having audio fun tonight. But really, Lust for Kicks? Cars? What a gas.

[RosieCotton]

Thanks! I do appreciate it!

[Fiddlstix]

You Know The Drill
Click the Pics J

[scott7278]

You know, I really don't know -- I didn't follow the Detroit Auto Show all that much.

Did it have something to do with the new Jeep that's going to be built on a car platform?

[scott7278]

Howdy, Kate! How are you tonight?

[Amityschild]

I realized it is Mozart's 250th birthday. I started to download music wildly!!! Mozart of course. And I've been playing with audio ever since. I was especially enamored with Maria Callas 'Magic Flute', OMG. The things you miss as you travel along the road.

[RosieCotton]

Magic Flute is perhaps my favorite opera...hence I have a cat named Tamino. ;-)

He *thinks* he's a prince, all right...

[ozarkgirl]

But tonight he's playing rap again. I've just got headphones on so I can drown it out with my own music!

We've already discussed this and I'm guessing you're still a young lady. I wish I was closer. That is not polite and it isn't acceptable. I wouldn't think twice about letting him know.

I do realize of course at your age you aren't as cantakerous as us older ladies. I would not hesitate at this blatent disregard for others.

[scott7278]

There used to be a web site dedicated to how people mishear lyrics to songs...that one was commonly heard as "I Fought the Lawn and the Lawn Won."

[Amityschild]

I don't know at all. I bought an 'X' in 2004. They have since come out with the 'Unlimited' (which I don't particularly like). But I kept seeing it prominently presented in newscasts, etc. Red, just like mine!

[rightwingintelligentsia]

I think I could use "Eine Kleine Nacht Musik" tonight.
