radio set and a diet coke....it's 10 after 8 in the evening and i've not posted all day...well that's not quite true, i've posted to a couple of the other blogs i own but not this one....got up early but messed around playing blogshares, and then played golf this morning and was in the 'cuse doing some shopping until just an hour or so ago, have been blogging for the last hour but was on my other sites...just feed the cats and got a cup of prince of wales tea...a blend of black tee....i'm tried and stiff from riding around most of the day....and need a pick me up.....strong black tea usually gets the job done.....started re-readin the lightfoot translation of the apostolic fathers last night....have been meaning to do that for the last couple of months but just wasn't in the mood...interesting look into the early second century idea of what christianity should be.....doesn't match up very well with the curreent trends.......i read it every so often to get my center back......would like someday to purchase the complete translations of the father's but that's a 32 book set, and about $350...well some day when i find that amount laying around i will get it.....those who fail to learn from the past are fated to repeat it.....( not new to me, but can't remember the source of the preceeding quote) but it's old enough to be in the public domain........but it is true about all endevours

a cup of coffee, warmed up from what was left from this mornings pot, ok i know it was brewed 14 hours ago and could probably jump out of the cup and walk around the room, but i'm both cold and lazy so it tastes good......played golf after work cold, damp night and i probably should have dressed a little warmer, if your interested the summary of tonight's round is here. have had an interesting day blogsharing that sad tale is here
actually made the effort to put a cd in the player tonight...i'm in a strange mood ( no i don't mean the normal strange mood, i mean really strange)....telemann's 12 fantasias for solo flute....jean-pierre rampal....really not my normal type of music at all, in fact it's one of those gifts people give you and you thank them and all the time at the back of your mind your thinking of creative uses for the gift....in this case a cd... a frisbee....a drink coaster...a replacement for a clay pidgeon.....but one day saw it in the cd rack....still unopened some two years later and thought what the heck might as well listen to it before i give it to the cats to play with....but actually liked it...but i have to be in the right mood.....

still a damp, overcast, on the cool side spring day.....had an outbound this morning....drove me nuts ( ok short trip, probably won't have to drive me, just take my hand and lead me accross the street)....but i was fighting a misbehaving forktruck.....dang thing just wasn't running right, they've worked on it for the last 2 weeks and just can't seem to find the root cause....i think we should just shot it and dump it's carcass in the river....

strange goings on ....some times when i try to access my site i get an "under construction" page....??????.....if it was accurate it would read " needs demolition"......archives keep disappearing but i get an error message when i try to globally repub...but if i repub one or two individually they all return...????????...been raining for hours here...damp day.....

did start the new blog...if your interested ( was that a yawn i detected) in my ranting and rambling about blogshares you can find it here. tomorrow will probably be a strange day at work, production is on slowdown and only working four days a week, so we'll be in a very empty building tomorrow, it's kind of built like a tomb, very few windows and thick stone walls...and is quite old......rumor has it that it was a munitions plant during WWI and that they made phosgene gas in the plant...i've never been able to find any documentation, but then who'd want to admit to it.....article about gas warfare in WWI.....part about phosgene gas is about half way down.......

i've pretty much decided to start a fourth blog.....rather then keep babbling on here about blogshares i think that i will move that babble else where......rained very hard this afternoon and i think that eventhough it has cleared off now i don't think i'll try to play golf tonight.....i think i'll just surf...maybe start the new blog and veg out a bit......and of course it's thursday so we must do a little survivor

blogshares is on live now.....because of restart restrictions and the fact that i have 3 claimed blogs i'm kind of limited in my buys so i've decided to play the bond market, but i did leave myself a fair chunk of working capital once restrictions are lifted.....the only bad thing about it......is that i may lose control of the ywo blogs of my that are availible for trade....really all i was going to do was control them and by bonds ...so i got about 1/2 a loaf......

blogshares was supposed to reset between 10 and 2 GMT today.....we are now in that timeslot but doesn't look like it happened yet...i was hoping that it would happen right at 10GMT because that would have given me some time to grab some stock before i went to work....nuts
