Friday Funnies

Hi,

It rained all day here in Chiang Rai. Most of it was hard, stormy rain. The yards were flooded, the dogs frustrated, and a bunch of us disappointed. A planned swim party had to be canceled. Evening is here and it stopped raining. Hmm.

The song we struggled with was "Love's In Need Of Love Today" by Stevie Wonder. Now it's time for 'Old School Friday', and a song you should all know. It's from 1955, and was one of the first R&B songs to 'cross over' to the Pop charts. "(Oh, oh, oh, oh, wah-ah-ah, oh, oh, oh, oh) __ __, __ __ will you be mine? My darling dear, love you all the time. I'm just a fool, a fool in love with you." Clue: The title is in two words. It combines a heavenly body with a planet. He's really in love.

Today the car never left the driveway. We stayed in all day. There was nothing pressing, and with all the rain, it just didn't make sense to go out. It would storm, then stop and look like it was going to be a nice day. Then the very light sprinkle would begin and we knew what was to come. Boot went out while we were having lunch. She got caught by the rain, and got wet. There's just no way to ride a motorcycle in the rain and not get wet. I suppose there are sophisticated rain suits, but not in Chiang Rai. You ride, you get wet.

Throughout the morning there were numerous phone calls, and text messages regarding the pool party/hang out that was planned for this afternoon. The crew from The Sold Project were coming over with friends, and new volunteers. We had also invited Kwan, who had recently met the group, and Atom, who is in the same age range. We kept thinking the worst was over, and then is wasn't. The new plan is for Monday.

Tomorrow we'll go to 9 Gallery for the opening of a new exhibit. It will be nice to see our art community friends, and meet some new people. The Mayor of Chiang Rai is the presenter this time.

Have a Wonderful WeekEnd. Time for the 'Funnies'.

Peace,
Danny


A Note From Home

Please excuse Jennifer for missing school yesterday. We forgot to get
the Sunday paper off the porch, and when we found it Monday, we
thought it was Sunday.
