Assisted Listening

Before the AC/DC concert, with signs posted all over the arena, there was an announcement that Assisted Listening Devices were available to those who needed them. It struck me as funny, I know it shouldn't, but it did. Trust me, you could hear the band from anywhere in the arena.

Random Thoughts:

Just spent $5 in parking and 2 hours of time listening to a bunch of developers bitch about how much it costs in Public Facilities Fees to build a 200,000 square foot warehouse in an unincorporated area. Anyone want my life? Only the high points for me. For the record our department gets a whopping $ .04 per square ft everytime a warehouse is built in an unincorporated area. $800 doesn't exactly cover the increase in services that the same warehouse will generate.

Cask & Cream from Gallo, my new favorite liquid refreshment. Nice and mello.

Vicki's mom is not doing well. Has fluid in her lungs. The docs are hoping there's no cancer cells in them. Otherwise she's done with chemo. They should know soon.

What's with the dead guy on Grey's Anatomy. Are we going to find out Izzy has Schiophrenia? Talking and sleeping with some guy who's not really there?

Indiana Jones - good movie. Glad Harrison Ford played his age rather than trying to play some young guy.

New Bond Movie - Good action. Lark says it wasn't bond-enough. No gadgets, no Q (or R or whatever letter they are on). Had one person say it was more like a Bourne movie, which is interesting since during one of the chase scenes across roof tops I leaned over to Lark and asked if we hadn't just seen that in the last Bourne movie.

No Christmas Tree this year. Cabo has yet to mellow out. I'd be picking it up constantly. His new game....hitting the cabinet doors in the kitchen until Lark comes in to run him off, then once Lark is settle he does it all over again. Lark says he's the master. I say he's a cat toy.

Speaking of Lark, he was trying to learn Led Zeppelin's Kashmir when I left for my meeting at 6:20. He's still at it.

Joe Satriani vs Cold Play - don't know the whole story, but Joe is accusing Cold Play of plagerizing/copyright infringement of one of his songs. One of the radio stations played them both this morning, then even overlapped them...same song. Hear for yourself http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ofFw9DKu_I


More Cask & Cream...............
