Now playing the CDN national anthem. Any bets for the
Canada/US game? Loser has to record themselves singing the winning national anthem and send it in to Jack…?
I’m not much of a singer, but sure! Remind me, Bunny.
We’re back home, and glad for it. Lots of family visiting – accomplished. There is nothing but crap on TV tonight. We tried watching Miami Vice and turned it off after 10 minutes. We watched 30 minutes of Ghost Rider before giving up on it. I think I’ll just finish Mythago Wood.
Oh, and my Secret Santa gift is finally enroute, so if you haven’t seen anyting from your DPSS giver, it’s probably me, and you may see it Tuesday or Wednesday…
TEB – I have no idea what the to sides are competing in but if it’s some sort of “Water Boarding” and “Old Men shooting other old men in the face with a shot gun” competition … I’d have to give the edge to the U.S.
I also may need to brush up on my CDN anthem lyrics.
I recall it as being something like -
“Oh Can-a-da
Your weather can be cold.
You are – waaay – up North
And your flag has a leaf on it.”
… I’m afraid the next verse gets a little sketchy for me.
Oh Dead-a-pan
Our home and native board
Jack Mangan rules
The whole pod-i-o-verse…
With glowing hearts we load the page
To submit our greasy nipples
From far and wide, oh deadpan
We comment incessantly!
Jack’s episodes are just as much fun
Oh deadpan, we comment incessantly
Oh deadpan, we comment incessantly!
Being the John Tesh / Yanni wannabe that I am, I got a cool Yamaha keyboard for Xmas. You can expect me to torture.. er enlight the board with some amaturish samples at some point.
Speaking of John Tesh, you may be tempted on spending 16 bucks for this album but notice you can buy a nice used copy for under 2 dollars in the same link.
TEB: It’s a Yamaha PSR-E413. It’s really cool, loaded with all sort of stuff. I mainly got it to explore a few more musical possibilities as well as being able to create backing tracks for playing guitar. I have no previous keyboard experience however. LOL One of the cool things I did with it was to upload Tron & Symphony X MIDI files to it. Sounds great. :)
Is it a full 88 keys? (I suppose I could look it up).
I had a piano that had a broken sound board so I replaced it with the keyboard a couple of years ago and don’t think I’ll go back.
Mine has a setting called “spaceship” on it (or something like that). I like to do the Close Encounters theme using that setting.
I have some piano and organ in my background but mostly fool around. It’s been awhile since I’ve tried playing anything for real, so I don’t think I’m much good any more. Unfortunately, it’s NOT like a bike; if you don’t keep it up, you do lose it.
Keyboard new age: I’m a huge fan of Mike Oldfield. Tangerine Dream is also the shiznit. And you can’t forget Jean-Michel Jarre.
Rhett- that Yamaha sounds like a lot of fun. (I’ll leave the “organ” jokes to someone else).
J0e – I think you need to finish your version of “Oh Canada” :)
I was ok with the third Terminator movie. What i like best was the fact that they followed what was always said and destroyed the planet. That’s the one thing that bugged me about the first two movies was the paradox they were creating by trying to change the future and make Skynet never exist and the ruling by the robots not happen. If that’s the case, then the terminator could not come back and try to take out Sarah Connor, The kid would have never been born, etc.
At least the third movie tried to bring it back and remove that paradox, and didn’t try to cop out with a “happy ending”
TEB: As you discovered, it’s a portable, i.e. less than 88, which is fine by me as I’m not even a novice player yet. LOL My wife though is quite good. We have a real upright piano in our house that is badly in need of tuning. She’s happy that the Yamaha will never go out of tune.
I got the new tax program in the mail today and am now eagerly loading it onto my computer. My husband says I’m weird and the only person in the world who gets excited over a tax program. Tell me he’s wrong.
Add me to the Yanni club. We’ve got a few here. And, I agree with Jack: Mike Oldfield and Tangerine Dream are great. I don’t, however, have any Jean-Michel Jarre, but I do have Phillipe Glass.
As for piano, I’m working on relearning everything that I’ve forgotten over the past 5 years. I wasn’t that far along to begin with, but I plan to make a more serious effort this time around.
(wow, a lot to say to get caught up) Congrats on number 100, Dan and Cj!
Van, I’m glad to see you here again. You have my email – and my Skype info. Use em as needed. My sincerest sympathies and condolences for what you and your family are going through now.
Smarty Hotties – - all 3 of those pics are awesome, including the overlord Hugh one. You guys have really carved out an incredible, unique creative style. Very cool.
TSH: Cool stuff! I like it a lot. Have you heard of Robert and Shana ParkeHarrison? Their photos are also surreal, but yours are more fun! http://www.parkeharrison.com/
Look at this, I go back to work for a day, and the Deadpan explodes! I, too, must lay claim to several Yanni CD’s. I think “Live at the Acropolis” remains one of my favorites.
ditto- we checked out that site. Very interesting work they do. We are both big surrealism fans.
We hate to admit it, but seeing what other artists are up to is making us insanely jealous :) We hope 2009 will be the triumphant return to the art world for us.
We live in this really cool artist community neighborhood here, and they are constantly having art shows. Its so exciting, and there is so much great art coming out of here, but it also makes us very jealous. We’re itching to get our recent work out there.
So we patted ourselves on the back and said: Wow, we managed the whole holiday season without using plastic “money.”
Then I found myself driving down the road, turned on my wipers (which had been acting slightly oddly) and suddenly the driver’s side wiper was pointing into traffic. Never a good thing, but especially in Minnesota in winter. Took it in, had the wipers fixed, and the annoying rattle that seemed harmless (broken stabilizer) and the much-overdue oilchange. $637 to the plastic.
I just hooked our old DVD player to our old stereo, and wow! Hearing DVDs is a great concept.
I inherited a Total Gym and have decided that if I can’t figure out how to set it up, it might be too dangerous for me to use. Luckily, dad’s coming over tomorrow.
Is there a word (and if not … can we please create one) that means,
“I have heard what you just told me so you don’t need to say it again, it’s just that I have absolutely nothing to say about the topic and would rather not just make inane comments about it that would lead to yet another pointless conversation that would best be reserved for a Cohen Brothers film.” ?
Example – You are warming up turkey left over for your relatives who are staying with you and they suddenly say “There is a new container of Kewl wHHip in the refrigerator.”
No one has ask for this desert toping on their turkey and in fact to this point there has been no talk of a desert topping shortage. This would seem to be just a random thought that made it to their vocal cords.
If you just go about your business, they repeat the comment because they think you didn’t hear them.
If you respond “Oh” or “Okay” or “I see” they think you are being short with them.
If you form an answer as a complete sentence it seems to signal that you are really INTO this topic and a mind numbingly inane discussion of that container and it’s predecessor will ensue.
I think when the chorus sings “scaramouch, scaramouch, will you do the fandango?” in Bohemian Rhapsody, what they’re really saying is “yes, yes I know you see a little silhouetto – now shut up”.
So try “scaramouch”, the next time you find yourself in that situation, j0e.
Joe, isn’t that what um-hmm is for? You know, the barely vocalised semi-moan, usually used between spouses, that means ‘Yes, I heard you sweetie, and thanks, really, but, you know, I just don’t give a…crap.’
Another fun one is the “Repeat anecdote teller.”
Anyone have one of them over the Holidays.
A few of us on the receiving end have made a game out of it to try and maintain sanity.
You get a point for every time you are present as this person tells the story. You are NOT allowed to prompt the story … but generally, no help is needed. (insert emoticon with eyes rolling back into skull)
The Buffy Between the Lines episode I wrote has finally had it’s script released. It is awesome beyond all recognition. Uh, by that I mean it doesn’t suck.
But I suppose all those who happen through here regularly will have to wait to hear the produced ep, aside from that Brian Brown fella…
I just found out that a married couple who I’ve always thought were just perfect are getting a divorce. That’s officially 4 divorces in 1 year for the people I know. I know a lot of people, but that’s still too many.
Jack: Debbie tagged both you and Cj, and then Cj tagged me, so we’re in this together now. Look for my post on my LiveJournal account soon. (http://barbarafett.livejournal.com)
J0e: LOL!!! Apparently, potatoes should not be baked in microwave ovens.
Thanks for trusting us with this deeply personal pain, Van. I’m so sorry for your loss. :( Anything you need, please let me know. You have my friendship and my condolences and sympathies, brother.
14 – 0. Three minutes left.
I’m really, really sorry.
Well, it was a nail biter, but Canada pulled through. Final score: 15 – 0
Now playing the CDN national anthem. Any bets for the
Canada/US game? Loser has to record themselves singing the winning national anthem and send it in to Jack…?
Sounds amusing. :)
When’s the game?
January 31
Ok try again. December 31
So ditto and I are in for the Canadian side, any takers on the US?
Actually I should say, “it SOUNDS like ditto and I…”
I shouldn’t just assume he said yes by his inquiry.
Not me.
I am, however, ordering won ton soup for takeout. That’s all I want right now. Won ton soup and nothing more. I’m so easily pleased.
I’m not much of a singer, but sure! Remind me, Bunny.
We’re back home, and glad for it. Lots of family visiting – accomplished. There is nothing but crap on TV tonight. We tried watching Miami Vice and turned it off after 10 minutes. We watched 30 minutes of Ghost Rider before giving up on it. I think I’ll just finish Mythago Wood.
EssBee if talent was a factor then I’d definately be out
What a beautiful bit of future content. Thank you, ladies!
Oh shit I’m a butterhead.
Watching the video again, are you Jack?
I think he’s addicted.
I can quit anytime!
Come see me eat nipple, eat nipple.
Hey! I’m trying to work over here. Keep it down with you nipples!
+r
BTW – saw The Curious Case of Benjamin Button today. It was almost three hours long – but pretty good. That’s my indepth review.
Jack hit the hooker on the head. Or something like that.
Morning, Pan, just stretching and blinking following the 6-day weekend…
Oh, and my Secret Santa gift is finally enroute, so if you haven’t seen anyting from your DPSS giver, it’s probably me, and you may see it Tuesday or Wednesday…
Morning Pan!
Back to work today – blech. Also started a new workout routine – ugh.
Not many takers on my bet, (thanks EssBee and ditto) I see. Keep in mind, nothing says you have to bet on your own country :)
Yeah, I’ll bet on the US to win…
Yep, back at work too. =P Oh well, three days of work and then four days off. I liked sleeping in.
Morning, Deadpan!
I’m off this week too, so am just getting out of bed.
I heard from Van that he’s holding it together, but nothing more than that. I’m keeping him in my thoughts today.
According to my latest spam mail, the IRS screwed up my last tax return and I’m owed a large refund. Too bad I don’t file with the IRS…
oohhh, Wander Radio episode downloading.
Van guessed at my FB daily idiom – I consider this a good thing as he hasn’t for a couple of days.
I do think he’s ghosting at the Deadpan though, as he seems to know when updates are put here on the board.
As such, I very much encourage warm wishes and virtual hugs.
Enjoy your vacation Essbee. I have Van in my thoughts as well/
TEB: I guess the IRS really did screw up if they are tracking you. LOL
Oh, if the unlikely should occur, do you need english, french, or the full bilingual treatment?
ooooooooh *breathy sigh* the “full bilingual treatment” please ;)
I only know the English version of the CDN anthem, I don’t expect more than that – in the VERY likely event someone has to sing it.
Well Pan. I’m off to buy a new door knob for our back door. Stupid cold weather did something to the lock and we can no longer get our keys to work.
Lots of hugs for Van.
I went through the same thing a few years ago. It really sucks.
I’m in on the bet. And if Canada loses, I’ll sing the Indian Nipple song, but not all 5+ minutes of it.
TEB: Correct me if I’m wrong, but did TEB say she want’s two tongues as a treatment? ;)
Rhettro: The IRS track everyone!
Suc Lebleu! I think.
TEB – I have no idea what the to sides are competing in but if it’s some sort of “Water Boarding” and “Old Men shooting other old men in the face with a shot gun” competition … I’d have to give the edge to the U.S.
I also may need to brush up on my CDN anthem lyrics.
I recall it as being something like -
“Oh Can-a-da
Your weather can be cold.
You are – waaay – up North
And your flag has a leaf on it.”
… I’m afraid the next verse gets a little sketchy for me.
I think it is more like…

We comment incessantly!

Oh deadpan, we comment incessantly
Oh deadpan, we comment incessantly!
^ LOL! That was great, ditto. One (or several) of us should record that for the show.
My hubby wants to get an acoustic set of the Nipple song going on. Jack, bring your guitar over here; there is music to be made.
Hmmm Cj and Jack making beautiful music together.
uhm… that would be Dan and Jack, actually. I just want to watch. ;-)
Being the John Tesh / Yanni wannabe that I am, I got a cool Yamaha keyboard for Xmas. You can expect me to torture.. er enlight the board with some amaturish samples at some point.
Speaking of John Tesh, you may be tempted on spending 16 bucks for this album but notice you can buy a nice used copy for under 2 dollars in the same link.
http://tinyurl.com/72zm4b
And you can get some Yanni Love Songs for under 2 bucks too!
http://tinyurl.com/9uz77p
Jack had mentioned he wanted some uplifting music to listen too. Hmmm…
I don’t think I can hit the high notes in that Nipple song, Dan, but I’m down. I wonder if the tablature is available anywhere online.
ditto, that Oh Deadpan/Canada was brilliant :).
Rhett, I own a Yanni CD. I will admit to liking some of that guy’s music. And his mustache.
That’s some mustache! I actually like some new age-ish stuff. Although for keyboard music I tend to like the Wendy/Walter Carlos stuff. :)
200
Just got home with some DVDs – all 3 Terminator flicks for a marathon.
Back from replacing my backdoor lock, and lunch.
Now to the comments:
J0e: We talking about the World Juniors Hockey taking place in Toronto right now. (http://www.iihf.com/)
Jack/Rhettro: Can I join the slightly abashed faced club and admit that we too have a Yanni CD?
Rhett:What type is your Yamaha? I have a Roland RD-700 that I just love
Bunny just got a 68 point word in Scrabble, y’all. My hat is off.
The game isn’t over yet. I’m still umpteen and 0 so far.
Actually, reverse that I’m at 0 and umpteen (haven’t won yet)
TEB: It’s a Yamaha PSR-E413. It’s really cool, loaded with all sort of stuff. I mainly got it to explore a few more musical possibilities as well as being able to create backing tracks for playing guitar. I have no previous keyboard experience however.

Rhett- that Yamaha sounds like a lot of fun. (I’ll leave the “organ” jokes to someone else).
J0e – I think you need to finish your version of “Oh Canada” :)
EssBee, there is no 3rd Terminator movie.
Looked it up (to answer my own question). It looks cool, Rhett
I was ok with the third Terminator movie. What i like best was the fact that they followed what was always said and destroyed the planet. That’s the one thing that bugged me about the first two movies was the paradox they were creating by trying to change the future and make Skynet never exist and the ruling by the robots not happen.

I need some validation:
I got the new tax program in the mail today and am now eagerly loading it onto my computer. My husband says I’m weird and the only person in the world who gets excited over a tax program. Tell me he’s wrong.
I’ve always liked it when we got new versions of Quicken. LOL
Quicken rules my world and I would be lying if I said that I didn’t enjoy doing my own taxes a little bit.
On another note, I’ve always loved Tangerine Dream. I really should update my music collection as I only have them on cassette.
Yeah, I feel better!
Yup been ghosting TEB.
Thanks again for the hugs and kind thoughts.
Me and my family are just waiting for the end. At least my Dad is no longer in pain.
Good to hear from you again, Van. *flurry of virtual hugs*
Great to see you online, Van.
Jack, there is only one Terminator film with Kristanna Loken.
Add me to the Yanni club. We’ve got a few here. And, I agree with Jack: Mike Oldfield and Tangerine Dream are great. I don’t, however, have any Jean-Michel Jarre, but I do have Phillipe Glass.
Glad to see you back Van. All my sympathies.
As for piano, I’m working on relearning everything that I’ve forgotten over the past 5 years. I wasn’t that far along to begin with, but I plan to make a more serious effort this time around.
Just listened to the Unshow. Great one, Jack.
Trucker, does the book include strip joints?
Dan and I are excited because we just released episode #100 of LLAP http://www.lovelongandprosper.com :)
congrats on your 100th episode CJ :)
and now for something completely different.
Hugh and I feel like sharing some art
May your turnip be with you

Hugh is your evil overlord
bow to him
http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3267/3144775675_a05c2bc3b8_o.jpg
ok that last one isn’t really technically an artistic achievement.. that was just me noodling with psd on an image of Hugh looking evil
the first image on the other hand is a keeper for our future art exhibits
another keeper for future exhibits from us
I really love this picture right now
http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3264/3144775681_07f82e1e8a_o.jpg
(wow, a lot to say to get caught up) Congrats on number 100, Dan and Cj!
Van, I’m glad to see you here again. You have my email – and my Skype info. Use em as needed. My sincerest sympathies and condolences for what you and your family are going through now.
Smarty Hotties – - all 3 of those pics are awesome, including the overlord Hugh one. You guys have really carved out an incredible, unique creative style. Very cool.
Awesome accomplishment on the 100th episode, Cj! Awesome art, Hotties!
We’re on to the Terminator movie that shall not be spoken of.
Cj & Dan: Congrats!!
TSH: Cool stuff! I like it a lot. Have you heard of Robert and Shana ParkeHarrison? Their photos are also surreal, but yours are more fun!
http://www.parkeharrison.com/
Look at this, I go back to work for a day, and the Deadpan explodes! I, too, must lay claim to several Yanni CD’s. I think “Live at the Acropolis” remains one of my favorites.
In that vein, I must again recommend Gnomusy:
http://www.gnomusy.com/enter.html
Glad to see Van making an appearance. And even a Smarty Hottie sighting! And congrats CJ, on making the big 100.
Thanks, Everyone. It’s been a fun ride!
TSH – LOVE the art! Very cool.
I’m finally all caught up on Lost, just watched the last season finale.
I’m not usually one for TV series, but man — that’s good stuff. I’m excited for season 4 to get started.
Season 5, Jack.
Thanks everyone :)
ditto- we checked out that site. Very interesting work they do. We are both big surrealism fans.
We hate to admit it, but seeing what other artists are up to is making us insanely jealous :) We hope 2009 will be the triumphant return to the art world for us.
We live in this really cool artist community neighborhood here, and they are constantly having art shows. Its so exciting, and there is so much great art coming out of here, but it also makes us very jealous. We’re itching to get our recent work out there.
You guys will rock the art world in 2009. And even if you’re keeping low-key right now, the output we see is still kickass.
Season 5. right.
Can’t live on a butterhead.
A Rockin 2009. Sounds like a good plan for all of Deadpan.
I’m supposed to have company today.
I may get dressed. I may leave my bed. More likely I’ll try to convince them to copasquat next to Hissy on the bedspread…
Morning, Deadpan!
marlo sighting!
CW: Brotherhood season finale
EssBee sighting!
:)
So we patted ourselves on the back and said: Wow, we managed the whole holiday season without using plastic “money.”
Then I found myself driving down the road, turned on my wipers (which had been acting slightly oddly) and suddenly the driver’s side wiper was pointing into traffic. Never a good thing, but especially in Minnesota in winter. Took it in, had the wipers fixed, and the annoying rattle that seemed harmless (broken stabilizer) and the much-overdue oilchange. $637 to the plastic.
I hope it didn’t melt, JB. That’s a fair bit of heat to put on it.
Kinda Deadish Pan today…
Sorry to hear about your automobile issues, JB (Autooo mooobeeel)
Today I’ll be purchasing paint for my front bathroom. My MIL is aching to paint it for me. I’m going to let her.
My 3-year-old son is trying to make himself a jelly sandwich.
It looks like it’s going to be in the 60′s again today.
♫ Yahoo I’m a Retard ♫
JB, that sucks!
I just hooked our old DVD player to our old stereo, and wow! Hearing DVDs is a great concept.
I inherited a Total Gym and have decided that if I can’t figure out how to set it up, it might be too dangerous for me to use. Luckily, dad’s coming over tomorrow.
Cj, on the plus side it’s not in the big lake…
OK
Time for another “Ask The Deadpan!” posting.
Is there a word (and if not … can we please create one) that means,
“I have heard what you just told me so you don’t need to say it again, it’s just that I have absolutely nothing to say about the topic and would rather not just make inane comments about it that would lead to yet another pointless conversation that would best be reserved for a Cohen Brothers film.” ?

No one has ask for this desert toping on their turkey and in fact to this point there has been no talk of a desert topping shortage. This would seem to be just a random thought that made it to their vocal cords.
If you just go about your business, they repeat the comment because they think you didn’t hear them.
If you respond “Oh” or “Okay” or “I see” they think you are being short with them.
If you form an answer as a complete sentence it seems to signal that you are really INTO this topic and a mind numbingly inane discussion of that container and it’s predecessor will ensue.
There has to be a word that acknowledges yet stops the thought (politely) in it’s tracks.
JOe, how about these phrases:
“Is that right?!”
“I’ll be damned.”
“You don’t say.”
Nope. Those show WAY to much interest in the topic and start a conversation about it.
Just caught up on my Twitter feed. Jack, did you see @spellwight’s latest posts there?
I’d respond, “Your hair’s on fire.”
LOL
The flame would be blue.
Or maybe, “I’ve always preferred the lubrication qualities of a fresh one.”
I know this makes me seem to just big butterhead but multiply that example by 24/7 and I begin to see how “whole family massacres” occur.
I actually like all of my relations. After a few days though …
It’s all relative.
I can never remember – Is their hair blue as it approaches and red as they move away … or is it the other way around?
I think when the chorus sings “scaramouch, scaramouch, will you do the fandango?” in Bohemian Rhapsody, what they’re really saying is “yes, yes I know you see a little silhouetto – now shut up”.
So try “scaramouch”, the next time you find yourself in that situation, j0e.
Amy: I hadn’t seen that I’d been tagged, no. Oh boy.
Joe, isn’t that what um-hmm is for? You know, the barely vocalised semi-moan, usually used between spouses, that means ‘Yes, I heard you sweetie, and thanks, really, but, you know, I just don’t give a…crap.’
MD – That’s what I figured. I thought it was a universally accepted answer.
Jaj- Might be only universal in interspousal communications.
Another fun one is the “Repeat anecdote teller.”
Anyone have one of them over the Holidays.
A few of us on the receiving end have made a game out of it to try and maintain sanity.
You get a point for every time you are present as this person tells the story. You are NOT allowed to prompt the story … but generally, no help is needed. (insert emoticon with eyes rolling back into skull)

http://www.xs4all.nl/~jvdkuyp/flash/see.htm
j0e, the response I would give to the Kewl Whhip comment would be …
“You are absolutely right.”
There is only one flash video for which the internet was made, and that is— Kikkoman:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wz-mJed_bP0
The Buffy Between the Lines episode I wrote has finally had it’s script released. It is awesome beyond all recognition. Uh, by that I mean it doesn’t suck.
But I suppose all those who happen through here regularly will have to wait to hear the produced ep, aside from that Brian Brown fella…
Wow.
I just found out that a married couple who I’ve always thought were just perfect are getting a divorce. That’s officially 4 divorces in 1 year for the people I know. I know a lot of people, but that’s still too many.
Very cool, JB. Keep us posted.
Marlo, that Kikkoman video. . . . it. . . . . I. . . . I don’t . . . . it’s. . . the. . . um. . . yeah. . .
I . . . agree . . . with . . . Jack . . .
Can’t get the image of that flowing loin cloth out of my head.
I’m craving Chinese food … NOT!
Off the basement at the Alamo. I’ve lost my bike.
JOe: I’ve always used “I see.” If you say it in a disinterested enough voice, people tend to leave you alone.
Of course, sarcasm + “How nice” works fine too. ;)
Jack… Kikkoman… showed you?
look at the Flash ditto … but brace yourself.
“I see” is what I fall back on but apparently it is being perceived as rude. *sigh*
FYI – I am currently at the “Life is FUCKIN BRILLIANT” stage of a Scotch high.
Any chance I can just hover here indefinatly?
Any chance i can spell indefanetly?
Life cometh before the fall.
me go grill steaks.
sop up scotch with BEEF!
There’s no basement at the Alamo!
It would seem that baking potatoes can absorb HUGE amounts of microwave radiation!
I’ll keep you posted.
BOOM!
hehehehehehe
Good thing you have that fresh Kewl Whhhhip, JOe.
kaBOOOOOOM!
Potato go bang!
Cool to hear Jack (aka Evo 2.0) on Evo@11.
Thx ditto – that was a fun recording.
Gremlins also don’t do so well in the microwave.
Jack: Debbie tagged both you and Cj, and then Cj tagged me, so we’re in this together now. Look for my post on my LiveJournal account soon. (http://barbarafett.livejournal.com)
J0e: LOL!!! Apparently, potatoes should not be baked in microwave ovens.
Amy, I figured you’d enjoy it, plus I want to learn more about you!

Shortbread cookies are good late-night snacks. They make me happy.
The Slimfast commercial on my TV while I eat aforementioned shortbread cookie does not make me happy.
So my Dad passed away this morning.
Thanks again for the kind thoughts and virtual hugs.
My condolences, Van.

JohnBoze, EssBee, Nomad Scry, and WNDRWolf were four of the seven people I chose to tag. I look forward to reading your posts! :-)
Thanks for trusting us with this deeply personal pain, Van. I’m so sorry for your loss. :( Anything you need, please let me know. You have my friendship and my condolences and sympathies, brother.
And with that, I’m going to bed. Good night (or morning, to Van)!
