Local Bloggin'....

Thought I'd mention some local (Richmond) blogs that have cropped up lately.

River City Rapids (they even use the same template as me).

Slantblog

And Another Thing (Richmond Magazine's Blog).

South of the James

just to name a few. Hell, if you want more, go to:
http://www.wric.com/Global/story.asp?S=3092024 for a list of Richmond Blogs.

*On Slantblog, Rea mentions VCU's Special Postcard Collection,

"Rarely Seen Richmond."
This is certainly worth your time, especially if you have an interest in Richmond, VA history.

OLD CITY HALL, if you saw The Murder of Mary Phagan, you've seen this building:

Main Street Station (my fav. building in the city):

the lowest of Purusharthas...

the road to Kama

Irezumi (入れ墨)... Finally!

Ring ding didle e eye eye de oh

Don't you just love a man in a kilt?

I'm with Ragdoll on this one! I think it's just downright SEXY!

I met a young man (young... 11 yrs my junior to be exact) at Element Lounge Monday nite and he was in a black kilt and killer boots. Yep, Sexy! Real Sexy!

Each October, you can find me at the Richmond Highland Games & Celtic Festival and it ain't just to drink Ale and listen to bagpipes!

Oooooh, suddenly I'm daydreaming of Kirk McLeod (Seven Nations) in a kilt..... yummmmm!

THE SCOTSMAN

• A Scottsman clad in kilts, left a bar one evening fair
• One could tell by how he walked, he'd drunk more than his share
• He staggered on until he could no longer keep his feet
• Then he stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street

Chorus: Ring ding didle e eye eye de oh, Oh Ring die diddle eye oh...

stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street ......

• Later on two young and lovely girls just happened by
• One said to the other with a twinkle in her eye
• Oh see young sleeping Scotsman, so young and handsome built
• I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath their kilts

Chorus: Ring ding didle e eye eye de oh, Oh Ring die diddle eye oh...

wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath their kilts

• They stepped up to that Scotsman, so young and fancy free
• They lifted up his kilt above the waist so they could see
• And there, behold, for them to view, beneath his Scottish skirt
• Twas nothing more than God had blessed him with upon his birth.

Chorus: Ring ding didle e eye eye de oh, Oh Ring die diddle eye oh...

nothing more than God had blessed him with upon his birth

• They marveled for a moment, then one said "Let's be gone."
• Let's leave a present for our friend before we move along
• As a gift they left a blue ribbon, tied into a bow
• Around the bonny star that Scott's kilt lifting showed.

Chorus: Ring ding didle e eye eye de oh, Oh Ring die diddle eye oh...

'round the bonny star that Scott's kilt lifting showed

• The Scott awoke to nature's call and stumbled to the trees,
• Behind a bush he lift's his kilt, and gawks at what he sees
• Then in a startled voice he says to what's before his eyes.
• Ach Lad, I dinna know where you been, but I see you won 1st prize.

Chorus: Ring ding didle e eye eye de oh, Oh Ring die diddle eye oh...

dinna know where you been, but I see you won 1st prize.

Thank you for NOT honking...

On my motorcycle and on my way home. It was vibrating madly between my legs as I waited at the stoplight...
I was vibrating from my experiences the night before. Thinking of the hours, the joy... I closed my eyes and left the here and now.
Reality rudely returns as I realize the light has changed...

Thank you for my gift!

DH Lawrence poems....

Self-pity

I never saw a wild thing

sorry for itself.

A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough

without ever having felt sorry for itself.

DH Lawrence

Anne Rice quote...

Found a good quote in Merrick by Anne Rice.

As David thinks to himself about his old friend Aaron Lightner, "Why does shame and self-loathing become cruelty to the innocent? How is that so often the case?"

Wow, does THAT sound like someone I know?!?! HINT: click here.

What I'm reading...

One of the few Anne Rice novels that I haven't read already:

I guess I'm taking a little break from Dean Koontz.

Actually, I finished the last one at lunch and didn't have the next Koontz book with me. Merrick was in the truck, so I started reading it.

lunch...

there, across the room

most beautiful man I know

and you call my name

no plan but to read

alone with my thoughts and lunch

then you made me smile

MORE LUNCHES

See, I TOLD you...

This is one of those "pass it on or else" emails... but it sounds like a true public service announcement to me...

1. Sex is a beauty treatment. Scientific tests find that when women make love they produce amounts of the hormone estrogen, which makes hair shine and skin smooth.
2. Gentle, relaxed lovemaking reduces your chances of suffering dermatitis, skin rashes and blemishes. The sweat produced cleanses the pores and makes your skin glow.
3. Lovemaking can burn up those calories you piled on during that romantic dinner
4. Sex is one of the safest sports you can take up. It stretches and tones up just about every muscle in the body. It's more enjoyable than swimming 20 laps, and you don't need special sneakers!
5. Sex is an instant cure for mild depression. It releases endorphins into the bloodstream, producing a sense of euphoria and leaving you with a feeling of well-being.
6. The more sex you have, the more you will be offered. The sexually active body gives off greater quantities of chemicals called pheromones. These subtle sex perfumes drive the opposite sex crazy!
7 . Sex is the safest tranquilizer in the world. IT IS 10 TIMES MORE EFFECTIVE THAN VALIUM.
8. Kissing each day will keep the dentist away. Kissing encourages saliva to wash food from the teeth and lowers the level of the acid that causes decay, preventing plaque build-up.
9. Sex actually relieves headaches. A lovemaking session can release the tension that restricts blood vessels in the brain.
10. A lot of lovemaking can unblock a stuffy nose. Sex is a natural antihistamine. It can help combat asthma and hay fever.

AND OF COURSE, THE REQUISITE "OR ELSE" MESSAGE AT THE END:
This message has been sent to you for good luck in sex. The original is in a room in the basement of the Dwight House Pub. It has been sent around the world nine times. Now sex has been sent to you. The "Hot Sex Fairy" will visit you within four days of receiving this message, provided you, in turn, send it on.If you don't, then you will never receive good sex again for the rest of your life. You will eventually become celibate, and your genitals will rot and fall off. This is no joke! Send copies to people you think need sex (who doesn't?). Don't send money, as the fate of your genitals has no price.

Life's just full of ups and downs...

Well, well... I've been kinda lazy with the blogging.
I've had some ups and some downs lately.
In the Downs Category... someone I was counting on really let me down. While this is disappointing, it's not really unexpected. To tell you the truth, there are a lot of people that could say "I told you so"... some have (T)... some just gave me "the look". You know the one, the "you REALLY should have known, I knew... why didn't you know?" look.

BUT in the Ups Category, I have a place to live. I'm hanging with G. She has graciously allowed me to move in, albeit temporarily. This will give me some time to find a place I like, whether it's a rental or a small house to buy. Now my mileage to work is lessened and I don't have to eat out every night... so I should be able to save a little bit of green. I know, T... you told me to do this long ago. You know it all, mommy! (or YOU ARE A KNOW IT ALL... one or the other).

have I been remiss?

too busy or too caught up
