Last week I took off on a 1300 mile trip to Kansas for my son's wedding. I'm kind of prone to panic and anxiety, and with the economy the way it is right now, this trip was sort of like walking on a tight rope without a net for me. However, I am, once again, in the middle of constructing another Windowblind, and during this trip, whenever I caught myself thinking about all the disasters that could befall me (car wreck at any of the states I had to drive through where I don't know anybody to help out and don't have any extra cash to pay anyone to help out; breaking down on the road with no one to help and no way for my spouse to get to me to fix things, because our second car is broken...dying on the road before I GOT to the wedding, etc.), before I started to hyperventilate, I began to think about how I wanted to skin the scroll bar, or what I'm going to do with the Please-Wait animation. I went the entire round trip (2600 miles) without once freaking completely out in the car, and I owe it all to skinning!
Alice in Wonderland by Louis Carol. 19th century, don't feel like Googling at the moment for the exact dates. For it's time it was about insanity and drug use. Heavily veiled at the time. Not so veiled by Jefferson Airplane.
And Ed....a special treat just for you, mate: LINK
OY Do you know that she is 69 now. Where have I been for 49 years?
You and me both...Gawd she's GawJuss
Ahhhh.....nothing like skinning and Xanax!
Where have you been for 49 years? Same place SHE'S been.
(Back to being worried about "IT" -- Joe Black -- the tyranny of clocks -- and needing Xanax).
Who is she?
Joe Black, as in, Meet Joe Black??? awesome movie!!
oneof us......ONE OF US!
Oh, that band changed their name so many times, I think they were once Jefferson Starship.
Wow.. time goes by too damn fast.
I agrei ... skiinin is grate
John, you've been in the Mary-Jane topic with Zubaz...haven't ya.
BON SCOTT ALL the way! - To me, there IS no other AC/DC singer!
Yes...making fun of many horror flicks about zombies and mind control,mental illness etc...(like invasion of the body snatchers)
Hey!! Who made a movie about me behind my back!?!?!!?
i couldnt agree more........im at my most creative when im at my darkest point of mind.......
i love that white rabbit song Ed.........i play it sometimes
Me too Kitty, and a lot of other dark 60's music when I'm in one of THOSE moods.
That pic of Gracie Slick you put up TG...........not so hot anymore. God, what does that say about me? Am I just a legend in my own mind?
Naaah....no worries! Pyrates never ge' olde an' never gi' up their evil ways!
Actually, considering how long and how hard she rocked, for 69 I think she looks AMAZING! Her eyes are still bright, she hasn't succombed to the seducation of plastic surgery like so many do and end up looking like wax figures of their former selves. That picture Seth posted of her...she was a baby! She's wearing a GIRL SCOUT uniform fergodzake! I'm much more concerned about what it says about you that you think the first picture is hot! (...dirty old man! ) I'd be the first to admit I'm a cougar and go for the younger guys most of the time (I make the exception to the rule for Seth ), but my taste HAS grown along with my own chronological age -- the same 10-15 years younger than my own age is what I find attractive.I guess maybe most men are different than that -- I remember when I was 40, some loser friend of the loser BF I was with at the time telling me that he thought 16-year-old girls were hot when he was in high school, and he STILL thinks 16-year-old are hot (EWWW! pedophile!!!)
I don't know Doc. The plank ain't what it used to be, and it won't be long until I'll have to be wearin' Depends on the poop deck.
She was wearing the shirt (you're too young to remember our "fashion" statements), but not a GS at the time (and NO remarks about Girl Scout Cookies will be tolerated!)....she was in her early 20's in the shot. LOL.
Ed...there's more to being a Pyrate than that...although that was one of the best, wittiest shots I've seen in a hellaciously long time!
Your cannon and plank appear to be in order Mr. Pyrate!
