its a meme of sorts......
(i loves me some good meme now and then...)
firstly, scroll down and do exactly
this:
Leave your name in my blog comments.
go on.
go do it,
then, come back up here -
lord knows i am not going anywhere just now...
............................... copy/cut here ...........................
Once you do that, this is what I'll do .....
1. I'll respond with something random (and probably nice) about you.
2. I'll tell you which movie you remind me of.
3. I'll pick a moment where you got a reaction (loudly or quietly) out of me.
4. I'll say something that only makes sense to you and me.
5. I'll tell you my first memory of you (if good) or lie my ass off (if it's bad).
6. I'll bluntly ask you something I've always wondered about you.
7. I'll challenge you to try something.
8. I'll tell you something I like about you.
9. I'll tell you what book reminds me of you.

thanks to Erika the Tai, and my Wifes' follow-ups ( i am always the last one to catch up to the game....)
so, once you have left your name (which i suppose really isn't necessary as your i.d. will be there anyway if you just comment below), you can then copy and paste this into your own blog(s) and see who takes ya up on the altruistic tendency of the generosity of the writer(s) you are currently reading... and learn 9 (count them - n i n e) new things about yourself from another POV!
trust in me, have faith - i personally have over half a century of randomness to pull from now - so your results will vary wildly and be intrinsically unique to only you!
ok - opening my rolodex.........let's go!
oh, the music notation here is because the damned java script isn't working again to add to "post to my blog"...

right, ya bloody well right,
ya got a bloody right... to say - y - y - yyy"
Supertramp " Crime Of The Century "
REMASTERED 180 Gram Vinyl Record Album LP
By Supertramp
note the distinction of the above: why you may ask?
just because i can!
new usb2 turntable with stanton cartridge (amazon dot com) - vinyl direct to hard drives means that the over 35,000 pieces of rootbeer stored in the garage all these years can now be safely transferred to our awesome dell media edition compy,
and then lovingly played out thru our deluxe surround speakers (amazon dot com) attached to said compy to lovingly caress my aging ears and take me back to specific moments in my life(pre-amazon dot com) - all registered with the warmest of analog playback thru each and every note i now hear again........ it's like having a reunion with everyone you ever met in life - even if it was a fleeting glance their direction and a split seconds eye contact, but when you hear the hiss, the snaps, or the crackles - or with the half mastered deluxe verso of course - you don't hear it -
it immediately puts you in a void in the time/space continuum that only your inner most subconcious would remember until the aural (s)excstacy pouring from the speakers throws open the blinds to your mind and the cover art and liner notes wash the backs of your corneas again like it was
yesterday.........
all this and more is available from amazon dot com.........
oh wait -
the album currently in rotation?
um, sorry.
no.
they are even nice enuff tho', to state that it may never be in stock again - they just don't know...
well,
now that i am burning vinyl to bits and bytes -
i may be persuaded to
part
with
my
heirloom copy..........
for the right amount of
whatever
you may have to part with.
damn.
it shore feels gud-nuff to write again....
this boy got WORDS.
and lots and lots and lots of "rootbeer"...
