Gargling With Ground Glass
That's what my throat feels like. We've got something running through the office, and it's my turn to have my ass kicked (actually, there were five of us out at least one day last week). Fever, sore throat, aches - oh yeah, all the classic flu symptoms. I haven't posted much because I've been feeling so rotten that all I would be doing is pissing and moaning. That's fun once in a while, but you don't want to read a bunch of that, and I don't want to write like that.
When I come up with something pleasant, I'll post it. Ha, I almost said 'worthwhile' instead of 'pleasant'! As if...

You do manage to come up with the attention-getting titles, don't you :-)
Though I didn't have the raw throat ailment, I did have the nose-running-a-marathon for the past week or so. Bed rest, lots of tea w/lemon & honey, throat lozenges (to alleviate the PDN - post-nasal drip clogged pipe thingie) ... aspirin or excedrin for the sinus headache... and soup. blahblahblah...
Feel better soon!

If you don't feel better in another day or two, you might want a throat culture. When I was sick at Christmas I thought it was flu, but it was strep throat. Three does of Augmentin and I was good as new (although irked that I'd wasted four days feeling like I was gargling with glass shards.)
Hope you feel better.

The Official Rocket Jones Guide to Survival During the Current Stock Market Troubles
Buy.
* Remember the old adage: buy low, sell high. Right now, prices are going down. You can afford more, and when the value increases, so will the return on your investments. And in the long run, the market always goes higher.

GAH!
That sounds an awful lot like "well it's BOUND to go higher now" logic. Yes, the market swells. But individual issues are another story.
The dramatic oversimplification of the approach that's served me so well over the last five years is: "Buy when it's going up then sell when it stops"

My helpful tip is to have a portion of your portfolio short at all times because when prices are falling, you're making money.
I can say this as a professional but not as someone who actually has money to invest.

Which is why I'm perfectly calm today!

I'm calm too, and I've got a bit in my 401k.

That's for the long term, so I'm not going to fret over the cycles until I get close enough to tapping it to make it matter.
I know people who check their 401k performance weekly. Those people are whack.

Plan B is to Stop Digging
If you get pulled over for speeding by a cop, you can try to talk him out of a ticket. But if he looks in your back seat
and sees this, you might as well not even try.

New Lady in the House
Her name is Butterscotch, and she's a one year old doe (picture to come later). We're fostering her for now, but our single rabbit
Ozzie has been showing signs of loneliness lately, so we've decided to try to pair them up. It doesn't always work, and it doesn't always go as smoothly as it did with our other pair,
Fred and
Java, but we'll give this a shot and if it doesn't work out, then we have other young ladies to try.
The rabbit rescue we work with is Bunny Lu. Give 'em a visit and hit their donation jar if you feel so inclined.

LOL Actually, no. We've barely managed to squeeze Butterscotch into a pen in the sewing room. We don't have room for another cage, so even if we can't find Ozzie a partner then we're done.

New Banner in the Rotation
But rather than making you refresh repeatedly to find it and driving up my site stats and inflating my ego, I'll just post it here too.

I've got another one in mind, but it involves some tricky photography and I just haven't felt ambitious enough to take it on.
By the way, there are now 42 Rocket Jones banners, plus three special occasion ones that I trot out for Christmas, Halloween and my birthday. Thanks again to all the folks who sent entries into the banner contest. If you like a banner, odds are good that it wasn't my work.

Whoa, Dude
I was just sitting here thinking about something and my eyes kinda went out of focus. The retro-style background on
Rocket Jones works just like one of those
magic eye pictures and if you're looking at it the right way, it goes 3-D!
Would you believe that I did that on purpose?

Thai Food
Mookie adores it, so she found a place nearby that got rave reviews and treated me to dinner. She says the food there was really, really good.
I tried several things, but I discovered that I just don't like Thai food.

It's really quite different. Save yourself the curiosity and don't bother with vietnamese. I generally describe it to people as the next stop on the straight line from japanese through thai.
I love 'em both. Chicken Red Curry, all manner of strong but strangely light sauces... s'making me hungrified.

Posted by: dogette at January 03, 2008 09:10 AM (q/UVc)

Based on review recommendations and Mookie's preferences, we started with a curry-ish chicken and mushroom soup with coconut milk.
We also ordered pineapple fried rice (which I liked) and pad lard nar (I think it was called) which was chicken and noodles in a brown gravy.
I tried Mookie's iced Thai Tea too. Like everything else except for the rice, it tasted horrible to me.
I'm the same way about cajun. I want to love it, I've tried to love it, but I just do not like the spice combinations and flavors.

Thump... Thump... Thump....
I've mentioned before that Ozzie, one of our house rabbits, "thumps" with his back legs when he's not happy about something. He's thumping away right now in his cage.
Liz and daughter Robyn are in Florida to visit Mom and Dad. Apparently Ozzie is feeling neglected because nobody is in the sewing room with him. I put the stereo on in there, but he's used to Liz sitting in there where he can see her.
This is going to get old real quick.

Much like you loyal
Rocket Jones stalkers readers and commenters (not always the same to my chagrin), who return regularly to view my little corner of this grand trainwreck that Al Gore wrought.
Enjoy. I do believe that she will.

Oh yes, to a frightening degree, she will be enjoying it.

LOL
In-flight photos will be a long time a-coming.
First, gotta build the rocket. Second, gotta wait for one of the monthly launches when conditions are favorable. Third, gotta get the film developed and see if anything actually is worth posting.
When it works, it's spectacular, but this is strictly bottom-of-the-line equipment.
I still love it though, and can't wait to try it!

Ted's Booty
I'm talking loot from Santa, of course.
Made out like a bandit this year. Nothing unusual I guess, because we tend to go way overboard on gifts since we start Christmas shopping in the summer and would all rather get lots of little things rather than one giant gift-wrapped coolness.
Before I make you envy me though, I want to mention the hands down bestest gifts given this year. My wife, Liz, has worked since August on photo album/scrapbooks, customized for each of the kids and one for her parents. Well over 200 pages of memories each (I don't even want to think about what the ink cost!), plus a CD-Rom of all the photos from each book, plus more that weren't printed, and on top of all that Liz made embroidered covers for each book. Absolutely amazing.
So, here's some of what I got:
A new harmonica (key of A)
Electronic guitar tuner
A gadget to help build rockets
A rocket with a built in camera for taking in-flight photos
Book on writing horror
10th anniversary edition of Myst/Riven/Exile
And movies (surprise, surprise), filling some gaps in my collection:
The Living Coffin (mexican horror)
Zombie 2 (Fulci's Italian classic)
My Favorite Year (Peter O'Toole, one of my favorite actors)
Groundhog Day (Bill Murray)
Evil Dead (Bruce Campbell)
Groundhog Day (Bill Murray)
House/House II (underated)
Groundhog Day (Bill Murray)
Predator
Groundhog Day (Bill Murray)
plus a 50-movie pack called Night Screams, packed full of B-movie drive-in-ish goodness
Rachael also cracked me up with "The Disappearing Civil Liberties" Mug. It has the Bill of Rights written on the side, and when you pour hot coffee or tea into it, the writing disappears. Makes me laugh every time (with a hint of rueage to be sure).
So how was your Christmas?

Mmmmm
Rachael bought a dehydrator a while ago, but left it in our kitchen because she really shouldn't have it in her dorm room. Mostly, we use it to make apple, banana and papaya chips for the bunnies.
Yesterday we sliced up a fresh pineapple and started the machine. Last night Rachael described the results as "a bitch slap of flavor!"

Thank You, Al Gore
As I mentioned, oldest daughter Robyn and son-in-law Henry are heading up to New Hampshire to surprise his mom for Christmas. They left Norfolk at o'dark thirty this morning and are now in Hartford, Connecticut, where they have a hotel for the night.
A half hour ago, the phone rings. It's the kids, needing a little help. They're staying in a Sheraton (great rate for the night, and it's right off the interstate), and when they asked for a local dining list, it's full of "fine" dining choices that they can't afford and have no interest in anyway.
Kids today solve problems in ways that us geezers would never think of. After explaining the situation, they ask if I'm near a computer, then if I could look up local restaurants for them. Soon, they've decided that they want to eat at Olive Garden, and within minutes I'm giving them directions to the nearest one, within 10 miles of their hotel.
Only one glitch, the directions take them on a toll road, and they'd rather not if they don't have to. Another few minutes, and I'm dictating directions that uses major side roads and alternate routes that's shorter (not necessarily faster) and avoids those pesky tolls that New Englanders are so fond of.
I better hear no crap from my daughter when I call late one night from the road, requesting directions to the nearest titty bar.

Schwartzenegger insists the victims of the 2007 Southern California firestorm temporarily residing at Jack Murphy Stadium are happy.
First he calls Tonight Show host Jay Leno an "idiot". Then he drops this bomb.
If it were Gray Davis the gods would have their media attack him mercilessly for these mistakes. Together they may be enough to cost any other politician his career. But not Arnold Schwartzenegger.
They say he makes comments like these all the time, clues which are all buried. And it's because they have BIG plans for him::::He is a tool who will be used to accomplish historical evil for the gods.
They say there is a strange sense of "unease" at the State Capital, like he doesn't belong there. And he doesn't. He is not American. Sadly this is an issue that is too readily discounted:::::
He is not from the United States. His loyalties lie with a country that was the enemy of the United States a mere 65 years ago.
Just as we witnessed with Clinton in 1992 expect blacks to register and vote en masse for Schwartzenegger as well, a clue and a red flag.
Just as we haven't seen any more of that "Everybody is happy." idiocy from the Preditor so do we no longer hear anything of the possibility a firefighter started one if not more of these SoCal fires, buried forever.
Weight training (promoted in every prison system in the country), promotion of pharmeceuticals (steroids), desensitizing "guy flicks" all prove the name "Preditor" is warranted.
Less than 24 hours passed after a traffic accident on I-5 before Schwartzenegger declared a state of emergency, but it took over 2 full days before he did the same for the San Francisco Bay envionmental disaster incident. The gods are offering a clue.
The gods love reverse positioning, and this Austrian genocide issue is an OUTSTANDING example:::
There is symbolism between the two:::Hitler was an Austian-born leader of a foreign nation.
It appears as if Hitler is a monster. When Schwartzenegger does his thing he will appear as a hero, an enforcer of decency. Quite the opposite is true, ironically.
Monsters like Al Capone, violent gangsters from the 20s and 30s thought they were going up. Instead they were routed into the Nazi death camps::::This Austrian genocide event disposed of these monsters.
Schwartzenegger's genocide event will dispose of society's VICTIMS, people who are the way they are (abusive, abrasive, violent, criminal) BECAUSE of their disfavor.
People will say the Italians were pushed into it too, but I'd like to remind you black evidence is contradictory (crack, AIDS, etc). Italian evidence REINFORCES corruption (1906, ). Based on these clues it is safe to say the Italians are more disfavored than Africans.
Ironically, Hiter is the enforcer of decency. Schwartzenegger is the monster. But the movies already prove Schwartzenegger is a promoter of indencency, so when his genocide event happens there will be no secrets.
This exposure from me can change their script. Or, more appropriately said, alter the Manifest Destiny's senarios to fall in line with the god's script.
That means Schwartzenegger was never going to be used. But I think the evidence we have suggests he in fact IS the one foreshadowed with the Hitler figure, his genocide event foreshadowed with the Holocaust.
And, ironically, blacks will show up at the polls to vote for their own deaths.
There is one geographic clue I have not addressed in years:::Uranus, a planet tilted 90 degrees on its axis. I have stated in years past that I think this is a clue offered by the gods suggesting the fate of planet Earth, that tectonic plate subduction would be the method of disposal:::EarthÂ’s axis will shift breaking continental plates free and initiating mass subduction.
Undesirables will either perish in the government marijuana erradication program "gone awry" or be the recipients of reparations granted by the US government because of it.
I believe the New Testiment battle of the Anti-Christ and the Second Coming of Christ will ocurr in subsequent years SPECIFICALLY because these people will be distracted with the money during the event.
When the Earth's axis shifts people will be cast into outer space with gold cards in hand.
I think this was foreshadowed on an episode of the Simpsons where Homer and Bart are on the disfavored ship and eject, only to experience a sense of euphoria, expand then explode in the vacuum of space.
Vienna was the center of the music world for a reason.
Any middle age person today remembers the excitement surrounding classical music in the mid-20th century.
Classical music was "in play". Expect the same "magic" was employed back then as well.
Motzart's ugly for a reason. Similarly, Schwartzenegger's appearance is suspect as well.

On the Subject of Squirrels
Not that we were, but since when has that ever stopped me?
Dogette has been dealing with the tree-beasties.
Bitterman has in the past.
(no specific links, just go and scroll, consider it my present to all Rocket Jones readers)
As most of you know, my daughter Rachael goes to Mary Baldwin College, where the team name is the "Fighting Squirrels" (even more inexplicably, their mascot is named "Gladys").
We exchanged a few gifts last night over at my other daughter's house (they left today for a New Hampshire Christmas with son-in-law's family), and we gifted Rachael with a t-shirt showing a couple of squirrels and reads:
Sure, it's all fun and games until someone loses a nut.
Maybe not so inexplicable after all.

Dear Gangbanger That I Insulted on the Drive Home
I won't deny it, I was laughing at you.
I'm sure that you're glare is usually very intimidating, but I'd been watching you in the back seat of your homie's SUV, and I was greatly amused.
You see, when you ride along with your head hanging out the window, trying to peep the women in the traffic around you, you look like a damn dog.

Spirited
There has been a definite lack of Christmas spirit around the officeplace, which was fine with me. That all changed this morning when I walked in and found the place completely decorated by a couple of "anonymous" elves. Not only that, but there are goodies and little gifts left on everybody's desk. I'm wearing an elf hat, complete with pointy ears, and enjoying a sweet little nibble with my tea.
Thank you, little elves. I needed this.

Please, please, please use your Christmas spirit AT ONCE to go out and buy some NOG for the office refrigerator.
