Friday Funnies

Hi,
We thought we were going to have a major storm today. This afternoon there was big thunder rolling across the sky. It rained hard for a short while and then stopped. Quite different from what we've been seeing on the news for So. Calif. Hang in there. There was also harsh weather in Colorado. Next thing you know, this will turn into an 'AftertheFactUweather' site, filling in the weather blanks around the world. It could happen.
As usual, the second day of the song brought tons of mail. It was 'Ticket to Ride' by The Beatles. Here's some rock for ya:
"You need coolin', baby, I'm not foolin'. I'm gonna send you back to schoolin'...Wanna __ __ __ x 4" Hint: Hook similar to a recent Fats song we played with. Another quartet from across the pond.
We made our Visa check-in today, without a hitch. It was a no frills trip. Up and back in the same morning. We'll go back for a shopping expedition another time. The next time we go back to immigration will be in three months for our renewal. That will mark one year in The Land of Smiles. My how the time goes by.
Stopped by The Place late this afternoon. All the windows and screens are in, the tubs are done and all the terrazzo around the pool is done. The living room area, which looked like a screen shop, is now clear and we can see the whole room. Tomorrow they begin installing the laminate flooring. That will make a big difference. More trees were planted and there were dozens of flowers waiting to be planted. We also got another delivery of boulders. This set is for the front yard. Hmm. I'll post some pictures at Flickr to show you what I'm talking about.
I always tell you, and you never watch, but this weekend is the Formula One Grand Prix at Monaco. This is the spectacle race of the year. All the glitz and glamour of Monte Carlo and the wildest street race you've ever seen. Oh, you'll want to record it because it comes on real early in the States.
It's time for the 'Funnies'. Have a Dry, Happy WeekEnd.

Peace,
Danny
