Update:
I just posted on another BBS.

Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

Re: Update Update
I am business manager for a Civil War-era brass band. We were asked to play for the Sesquicentennial [that's 150 years, for those of you in Rio Linda.]for the Philadelphia Zoo. I was asked a question I have never been asked and expect never to be asked again: my contact asked what instruments we played and what they each sounded like; she went on to say that she needed to know so she could make sure we were positioned in the right spots on the grounds because certain animals went crazy with certain sounds. People sometime act a little crazy when they hear us, but never animals before.

Re: Update Update
UPDATE:
I participated today in my first D&D adventure meet. While my associate was away, I took control of his character. Anyone know why bards have such Nerf'd weaponry? This guy had a rapier and a light crossbow (both with 0 attack bonus). It was not my character, so I left moderation at the door and used up all three of his daily Level 0 spells (Lullaby x3) and blasted away 3 of his xbow bolts. You should have seen all the natural twenties rolled there. One of my attack rolls gave a nat20, and my second crit roll gave another 20. Epic.

Yep, sunrise before work was a short-lived event, courtesy of DST. Which, for me is PDT. Now, soon, it will be light when I have to go to bed.

SHOULD I lacquer (again, OVER satin silver) the entire valve section one translucent color, or should I lacquer all of the removable parts (slides, water keys, caps, buttons, tension bands, bell screws) ANOTHER translucent color (thus incorporating BOTH green and purple)...??

I just wanted to say how proud I am of Ray for starting this thread. I do think I deserve a little credit, since Ray was, in part, prompted by my profound thread on my sinuses, viewtopic.php?f=11&t=27178&p=235469.
Also, I wanted everyone to know that the sensor on my garage door was replaced today, under warranty.

Today's update....
the eldest's class (7th grade) had a ski trip today. Dad (me) made the mistake of a) agreeing to drive (5 total hours in a honda with 4 13 yr old girls), b) trying snowboarding.
My rear hurts.
