Dare I see Mason Plumlee has a better handle than the Black Pigeon?

Windsor Law clearly states that "Plumlees do NOT dribble". :D

I am taking advantage of the cool weather and preparing Guinness braised beef and turnips. Our house smells wicked awesome.

One of the local TV stations just ran a story about a local city in which residents were going to be tested for exposure to various heavy metals (from a local mining company). That's not funny. I did just about fall out of my chair laughing when the reporter talked about testing for cadmium and (pause) molly-BID-dem. Uh, it's molybdenum (muh-LIB-deh-num). If you're going to choose two elements out of a list of heavy metals being tested for, choose ones you know how to say. Or maybe ask someone how to say it.

That's damn good, Miles. How did a youngster like you come up with that ancient song? He was singing that stuff before I was even in HS, IIRC. We have even danced to one of his songs, The Masochism Tango. :)) :))

I was blessed with cool parents who made it their business to make sure we weren't raised by Atari and Nintendo. I remember by dad telling me about this song when we were studying the periodic table. We didn't have Google back then so he did his best to describe it and then one day, we were cruising around in his car and heard a story about Tom Lehrer on the radio; sure enough the played the Element Song! I've never been able to forget it since.

Just saw an 80 year old fellow in the office who had both eyes operated on for cataracts since I saw him last aobut 3 months ago and he can see so much better now that he likes Duke blue now. Before, his vision was so bad, he could only see the fuzzy, faded blue and is so much happier today :duke: .

Baton Bob showed up and asked for a continuance. Said he was unable to subpoena a witness from the school system since the schools are closed for spring break.

PHB is mad and says no more Mr. Nice Guy. He is especially mad because he went over to meet Baton Bob and shook his hand, and thought it would all be over today.

I am mad because Baton Bob didn't think enough of the proceedings to wear cow headgear, or his wedding dress, or tutu, or even his "I AM A PARADE" shirt.
