Ramblings of Silver Blue

allow me to say an early “Happy New Year” to everyone. It’s been a long, strange 2005. Here’s hoping that 2006 is better for us all.

I’m finally through adding all the album artwork to my mp3s for the ipod. What thanks do I get? iTunes decided to up and lose the index for all my purchased music. Oh, it’s still there. I can still access it. But it’s no longer in the “purchased” section of my library. Sigh. Well, at [...]

This is interesting. Paring down the collection to fit on the ipod. Guess a lot of people don’t have that problem. LOL.

Margaret, life-partner of Moses’ friend passed away this morning after a battle with cancer. My prayers and well-wishes go to the survivors. I don’t like getting older. It means those I know, am friends with, like, and even love are passing away.

Is here. Enjoy. Party like it’s 2005! (LOL) Offline as of 1/6/06 Yes, I know there’s one carry over from last week, but hey, it’s the holiday season!

For my best month ever. I must really be sick (well, we know I am), but I haven’t even opened the iPod yet. I’ve been busy with other things and trying to get stuff situated. Maybe tomorrow. (And yes, Revog, I know you had one first, but I had to get one — helping people [...]

…either Abate or Bring on the Snow. I’m tired of this half freezing, half hot weather we’re having. I do believe I’ll come down with pneumonia if this keeps up.

I read on CNN today where Clinton’s Impeachment has made the history books. What he did by lying about his sexual escapades with Monica are no worse than the lies told by George W. Bush regarding Iraq, regarding unauthorized wiretapping, or any of the other lies America has been told (read as Haliburton, giving his [...]

Yes, I’m not feeling the best today. I want my blankie and a pair of footie pajamas. A good stiff shot of whiskey and off to bed I would go. Never know, however. I may not wake up until New Year’s.

now that my readership has dwindled back down to next to nothing. Christmas is over. People are no longer looking for the “12 Daze of Christmas” by Fay McKay. Accordingly, readership has dropped back off. A shame, really, as I thought people were visiting because they enjoyed it here. Shows how simple minded I can [...]

…when people make obligations and can’t live up to them? I grow tired of being nice and trying to be understanding. An agreement is an agreement. Playing phone tag doesn’t work. The next call I make will be to an attorney to get the rest of the money that is owed to me. We agreed [...]

Wouldn’t it be better if New Years Day were also the first day of spring? In theory, yes. In logic, no. If New Year’s Day were also the first day of spring, that would make the first day of winter oh, I don’t know… Labor Day. But then there’d be a good reason to not [...]

After a trip to the bathroom he was able to make his way downstairs, where his wife put some coffee in front of him. “Louise,” he moaned, “tell me [...]
