Very nice, MB...

Now I'll be thinking about a 'Fro-wearing beer and singing that all day long. Only sort of funky, waka-waka-guitar version.

You got me laughing pretty good there...

I don't want to be at work. I might go home early and cut struts for the dome instead...

Yellowtail has a Shiraz/Cab that's pretty swell.

I like the yellowtails I've had recently too.

Tomorrow I will be spending the evening helping to rebuild the dojo that was partially destroyed in a new year's eve fire. This is the place we've held our decomp and other fund raisers, so I feel deeply connected. Drink for me tomorrow.

Tonight I drink for myself. More wine!

Thanks Watch... It blew through pretty rough here, but I think you guys got the worse part of it. Heard about a couple of tornados. Just windy and very heavy rainfall here.

Wine!!! Wine all around!!!

And hey, Sputnik... That’s good that you can get to work on the dojo so quickly. I guess it’s mostly clean-up and assessment at this point huh?

Fires seem to me like they'd be tough to clean-up after. Smoke damage and all that, not to mention rebuilding the stuff that got consumed in the flames.

He has no insurance, so the only way to get him back into business is to rebuild. My understanding is that the main space was spared. It's an industrial building with offices in the front, and that was what was damaged. He told me tonight that most of the cleanup is done and they're moving into drywall and painting.

Wow... right on, man. If I were there, I’d sure help out. I’ve hung more drywall than I care to think about. And I know what you’ll be thinking about when you cut into that stuff and see all that gypsum dust falling out...

Yellowtail? I wasn't sure about them after seeing all the billboards they bought around KC to advertise. It had me wondering if it was like that nasty boxed stuff.

Now, now. I happen to think the boxes are just fine. After all sometimes it's more about quantity than quality.

Mozy's got me thinking black water. Any Guiness about?
What are those funky chin-looking shots?

On second thought, one of these Chat chots of vino will do nicely. ... a little hair of the cat.

Cheers Bin! I've heard Guiness doesn't give you a hangover - liquid bread - so you should be in good shape tomorrow.

My Spanish is pretty malo, but I understood about half of heli's post. You worried?
