Last train to Coolsville...

Hey kids, if you haven't signed up yet for exLinks, it's not too late, you can do so here.

By the way, this is my old blog. My new one is at http:pointless-drivel.com

Now, as far as this exLinks thing goes, it's going to be the next big thing. Hey, have I ever lied to you before? Okay, but about anything imortant?

I did a post a few days ago about exLinks. Be sure and read the comments. Paul, an administrator from BlogMad, weighed in several times. His responses are in bold. You can read that post here.

See you on the other side!

Follow me.....

The move is complete! I have moved to Wordpress and my own domain. My new address is:

www.pointless-drivel.com

Please adjust your browsers, search engines, favorites, bookmarks, bloglines, blogrolling, trousers, underwear, thinking, attitude, and state of mind to the new URL.

We apologize for the trouble. But we look forward to seeing you at the new digs!

Just a little turbulence folks...no worries

Easy now, folks. Don't panic, everybody stay frosty. We may be experiencing some turbulence today. At some point today the move to Wordpress and the new domain will begin, and things may get a bit wonky for a bit. We don't have any air sickness bags, so if you start to feel nauseous try to throw up on a poor person.

With that in mind, I figured I would just post a few pictures today that I have been holding onto for just such an occasion.

Here is an excellent reason why Mrs. Fab and I do not have children. The horror! The horror!

Can you imagine? I am shuddering as I type this. You can't tell, but I totally am.

As for this kid, she must have been lost:

And this? Best. Babyfood. Ever.

And last but not least. What do you think? Think this smoking area is a little heavy handed?

Okay, that's it for today. Nothing more to see here. Hopefully next time you fly Pointless Drivel we will have a shiny new airplane so you can travel in style.

That analogy totally sucked. But it's late and I'm tired.

Buh-bye!

I can't resist a music meme...

But first, I am going to try my best to go back to putting up one post per day. Well, two if I do a "Spiritual Side" post. That's the problem with having all this free time. I could easily do ten posts a day if it weren't for my impressive self-control.

If you have not yet clicked over and given some love to my tenant, Noi, please do so. She has been a surprisingly good tenant this week. She has promised to give me a massage later, and I think she is going to tell me a bedtime story too, because she said something about a happy ending.

Okay...

I saw this at the always fabulous Dixie's site and I just had to have it. I won't be able to fill it out as completely as she did, because my musical tastes are not as well rounded. But I'll do the best I can, and where I fall short I will readily cop to my lack of knowledge or interest.

This was fun and a bit challenging to do. It's hard to narrow all the possible choices to just a few. Plus I had to do a little research to make sure I put songs in the right category. I also added a few segments of my own.

The idea behind the meme is that it's about music, and that you can put up to three answers to any question. But no more. One answer is OK, two answers is OK, three answers is OK. Four is not OK, and five is right out. Unless otherwise indicated, you can only choose songs, and be specific--putting "anything by Madonna" doesn't count.

The spiritual side of Mr. Fabulous (part 3)

It's not common knowledge, but when I die, I am gonna be tapped for halo distribution in Heaven. So if you want a good one (not one of those refurbished deals) you might want to start being nice to me now.

I'm just saying.

Panty Meme, Panty Meme (say it three times fast)

Okay, so Tug tagged me with this Panty Meme because I commented on Martiza's site that I was disappointed she hadn't tagged me with this (for the record, Tug, I'm pretty sure I didn't whine).

Hey, the first rule at Pointless Drivel is to accept all challenges. Hence this post. So here is the deal:

Welcome to the panty meme. Here's how it works.
1. Copy the entire text of this post (the part shown in italics) and post in your blog. Reminder:Do not copy photos.
2. Add your name and link to the Panty Meme Participants list below.
3. Post a picture of panties. It's fun if you post a picture of your own panties, but it does not have to be. And BTW you don't need to be wearing them, but it's your blog you can do what you like.
4. Tag two people and change out the names below.That's it. Oh yeah....Have fun!

Participants:
Kelly
Gingerbread
Martiza
Tug
Mr. Fab

Tagged:
Tense Teacher (stick me with a creative writing meme, willya?)
Ms. Demmie

I feel like tagging more, but I won't break the rules, like some people I could mention, eh Tuggster? :)

Now, I showed this meme to Mrs. Fab, because I figured I would need her to take the photo(s). I was in full diva mode, wondering out loud which shot would be most artistic. Should I be wearing them? Perhaps with them tugged down a bit to show my sexy sexy tan lines? Should I wear the black ones or the red ones? What would be the best angle? Which room had the best light? So many things to consider...

Mrs. Fab solved the problem easily. "Why don't you take a picture of them on their native soil? The floor."
Sigh...fine.
