My favorite saying:

Shared pain is lessened Shared joy is multiplied

 
TGIF!!!!

A friend from work took me out to lunch yesterday for my birthday, and we had a great time. Went to a place called "The Elbow Room", kind of a very "IN" place to be for the evening wannabe "cool" crowd. It was the first time I'd eaten there, and though the food was delicious, it was pricey and there wasn't much of it. Don't know if I'd go again, but it was nice to go at least once.

When I got home yesterday, I delivered my brother's new PC to him and man he's happy! It's so much faster than the old one. I'm glad he's happy now, hopefully it'll last him another 4 or 5 years now.

Today's my "dress down day", so I'm in work in jeans and a nice polo shirt and sneakers. I always love dressing down as I really feel at home like this. Just makes the day "feel" better for me.

I understand from michelle that my Tom Cruise link yesterday didn't work. Well, Here's a new one about War of the Worlds. (Thanks michelle!)

Oh, speaking of michelle, she also sent me this article, about the mastrubating judge!

What's everyone doing for the weekend???
If I can get away for an hour or two, I'll go see my dad and watch an hour or two of Band of Brothers with him. Other than that, and dinner tomorrow night, not much planned.

And now, the news not fit for print:

Yo, Bubba... is this what you do down yonder? Kentucky hunters expecting the best squirrel season on record. Fire up them George Foreman grills
