Open thread

What the hell. Why not? It works on the Big Boys and Girls’ blogs.

Step on up to the virtual sushi bar and help yourselves.

    Even violins can’t turn this day around.

    What? It’s not a naked sushi bar? Are you running a fever? 😉

  3. Dan says:

    Violins? How about puppies? They can turn any day around, no?

    Today I took the afternoon off, and helped teach very basic judo* to a group of about 20 5- to 13-year-olds. It was a lot of fun, but next time we’ll use our own mats.

    * Breakfalls, a hip throw, a ground hold, and some games.

    We are back from our camping trip: dirty, smelly, and tired, but happy.

    I think.

  7. Walnut says:

    Dan: yes, those puppies were good for a smile.

    Pat: would have made a great YouTube vid, I’ll bet.

    Dean: I hope you took lots of pictures!

    If we pull an open thread, will it unravel the entire blog?

    I noticed a thread of violins in this here open thread.

  12. Walnut says:

    Tam: 3 out of 4 ain’t bad *snerk* 😉

    Lyvvie: try it and see!

    microsoar: sounds like Siggy in Gateway. Am I right? Or perhaps Zork, or Adventure, or the old Hitchhiker’s Guide game . . .
    Dean, they’re not loud enough. Turn the amps to 11.

  13. Pat J says:

    11 is for sissies. I had a stereo once whose volume knob went to 30.

  14. Dean says:

    30? 30 is for pussies. We used to feed 30 to the cat when he was sick.

    I had a car stereo and I put on a piece of masking tape with ‘100’ on it. That made it really, really loud.
