...been pretty normal weather wise around here for a change. Temps around 50° or just above with occasional rain, that's a usual Oregon winter. However seems another little bout of "real winter" is on the way this Friday. Hopefully the forecast will change by then as I have a business meeting that day.
...ugh just looked at hte forecast before turning in. Frozen water from the sky returns on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, first as freezing rain then as snow on Friday with temps dropping back into the upper 20s. Never seen it happen as much in one winter here as I have this year. For today (Tuesday) heavy rain and flood warnings.
Off to bed.
They're throwing a fishy ball at the wall . . .
Won't that hurt the fishy?
Sigh, the jokes you have to explain. Thought it was a pretty well known "stuck in the cooler" meme. But perhaps not.
ohh boy, ! flying taxis
http://www.usatoday.com/story/travel/flights/todayinthesky/2017/02/13/dubai-passenger-carrying-drones-could-flying-july/97850596/
more than that, flying taxis without any drivers. I think I would rather walk or catch a bus.
A side benefit to being the first to reach the cab. You can chop up the late comers.
Or if you're a celebrity you won't be bothered by paparazzi!
I think I can get a refill of the coffee I got this morning. I think I can as I have not left the mall yet. oooh I love coffee. oh wait was I eating lunch?
I think I was given a regular size sandwich instead of a small sandwich. I am not sure as I do not use a bun but eat the sandwich on fries. It just seems like a lot of chicken for a small. I am currently at the Y. Why? So I can visit the pool. I am thinking of not finishing this "small" chicken sandwich on fries but hope it is still okay after I swim.
don't think fries are good nomms after the first hot wears off.
cant remember the name of an outfit i want to render. is like a bikini piece with tulip petals, g2f i think.
Dubai not in China? wonder what city was thinking of then,
40 minutes to the bus. can just barely hold my eyes open.
asked for friday off.
my cousin sleeping over this weekend, hafta clean >.< was purging my closets, is all over the place.
hope she doesn't get bored, our mylilponies are gonna meet each other.
So which will come first? Dismemberment by meatgrinders, crash (including out of juice, overweight pax/out of limits CofG) or kidnap?
Morning. Iz sunny and today all the wood smoke from last week seems to have packed up and moved outta my lungs, oscar mike golf didn't know you could cough so much. I n other news hasn't been so many emergencies diring February for years, since the big fires here, looking forward to March and dropping down to the bottom of the roster again :) In other other news is Wednesday, haz coffee, iz four days until the next job starts and gold sun iz gleaming off all the green the weekend rain left behind :)
Nah, the paparazzi will have their own little camera drones and will make them follow your taxi!

I saw on the news that a commuter jet crashed into some buildings...a mall, perhaps. Not near you, I hope! It was in Melbourne, I think.

Yep, has ben pretty busy here, is usually February fires but this summer has been a little different, altho across the border there is a bit of a bushfire season happening :0
rolls over, pulls the blanckets in for a snuggle ...
daydreaming of sleeping
Oh frabjous day! Callooh! Callay! I just checked the season schedule for Chautauqua this summer and the first symphony performance in the brand new amphitheater will be a Tchaikovsky night. http://ciweb.org/calendar/eventdetail/3291/chautauqua-symphony-orchestra
Amazing Pianist Alexander Gavrylyuk (Gav-RILL-yuck) returns to Chautauqua to play the Tchaikovsky Piano Concerto #1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yue6Cb5OULM 2nd movement at 22:25, 3rd movement at 29:25. Check out the one minute begining at 14:30.
Mr. Gavrylyuk has returned to Chautauqua for several years with incredible performances of Russian masterworks as well as Brahms, Mendelssohn & others. I expect to be as impressed with this Tchaikovsky staple as I was with his performances of Rachmaninoff's 1st, 2nd, and 3rd piano concertos in years past. (short clip of him playing a bit of the 2nd Rachmaninoff piano concerto https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOceOnRrJqc&list=RDRqIwcq74MCg&index=7
Here's a 10 minute clip of a piece he played at Chautauqua one night. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USCF6-fIXPU (Brahm's variations on a theme by Paganini). Read the comments.
The ovation at the end is typical of performances by Gavrylyuk. Amazing performer and when here at Chautauqua he holds classes for the students on campus.
One characteristic of Gavrylyuk performances at Chautauqua, he always gets standing ovations and he plays several encores much to the audience's delight.
----------------------------------------------
After intermission the CSO (Chautauqua Symphony Orchestra) plays Tchaikovsky's Symphony #4 ("Fate") This is a very powerful piece and one I've been anxious to hear live. (One minute clip with a VERY animated Leonard Bernstein conducting) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCeJOneswOU and that's only the end of the 1st movement!
For the full performance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xEHNGgrEYyA 2nd movement at 19:30, 3rd movement at 30:15, 4th movement at 35:28. Notice that the 3rd movement (30:15) uses pizzicato (plucking) of the violins & other strings instead of using the bow.
Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symphony_No._4_(Tchaikovsky) says: "As the composer explained it, the programme of the first movement is—"roughly"—that "all life is an unbroken alternation of hard reality with swiftly passing dreams and visions of happiness ...". He went on: "No haven exists ... Drift upon that sea until it engulfs and submerges you in its depths".

wonder what it could be?
There's a giant backdrop on which the rest of the Universe is projected.
and Voyager just ripped a hole in it.
Interstellar war on our doorstep, probly. Earth to be used as alien penal colony. Carpenters release "long lost" sequel to Calling Occupants . . .

Oh my god... it's full of stars!!
Wouldn't that be story of the millennium?
The next mission would be to find the projector!
