Apparently,
Office Max's Rubberband Man was in Thailand when the tsunamis hit.
Although he was initially reported missing, he later turned up in the
mountain areas.
Heehee. I like Rubberband Man!

Wedding Update: Beth and I put a contract down on a
reception site. We're having the whole shebang at the Hyatt
Dulles. It looks really nice and I've heard good things about Hyatt
hotels. Hooray for us! And that also means we have a firm date now:
Saturday October 1st.
Plus, the Vegas Bachelor Party is starting to take shape. The invites have been sent
and the line is forming. Looks like we're doing a 4-day trip in late July (although I may go for
longer, depending). I hope my friends know that I plan to park myself at a
blackjack table the whole time...

YOU FUNNY.

There's
a stretch of road about a mile long that leads up to the Hyatt Dulles
and as Beth and I were heading there for our final look-see, I remarked
that I had come up with a name for that particular stretch.
I
told her I had officially dubbed it The Green Mile.
(And Bethy found it funny too, which is part of the reason I lover her so.)

For some unknown reason, I've signed up for a CD mix exchange (through
MonkeyFilter) in which people trade homemade CD's in small groups. It
sounds cool, but...
The problem: Although my musical tastes are varied, they're very much mainstream.
I don't have a whole lot of indie-type stuff which--according to people
who've participated in this particular swap before--is sort of the point
of the whole thing.
Ah well, maybe I'll just hafta dig into my old 80's tapes and see what I got in there.
It might not be indie, but maybe a lot of people have forgotten about The Godfathers,
Robbie Robertson, or Child's Play.

Once again, I'm working on a Smoking Countdown.
I gotta quit! This time, however, once I do quit, I'm not going to say
anything about it. I don't want to jinx myself. It's kinda like talking to
a pitcher during a no-hitter.

Barney
Story: After the pounding Barney took from all of us about his donating
skills, he decided to call up and donate during the NBC tsunami telethon
last weekend. Of course, he just wanted to talk to a celebrity, but at least he made a donation.
Well, the guy who Barney talked to identified himself as Chris Downey--Robert Downey Jr.'s brother.
Naturally, Barney wasn't too keen on getting this particular
"celebrity" to take his call. He even demanded to know if Chris had been in any
movies (he said yes).
However, the truly head-scratching aspect of this story is that Robert Downey Jr. doesn't HAVE a brother. I looked it up. He has a sister, but no brother.
Ponderous...
