The Bar... Volume#2
Ice coffee sounds great.
I've been eating a lot of coffee ice cream lately.
Sandbagging is a particular kind of fooling.
Originally a racing term, it referred to weighing a horse down with sandbags so that at full ride, it would be slower than capable.
This would cause the competition to underestimate the runner.
But I'm certain The Art of War refers to strategies of this type, as well.

Good news for me. What hair I have left is grey and the rest is bald. I am with LF, the only look that is not appealing is the phony one. Be who you are is excellent advice. However, I think it wise to have missed LF's nightcap. It would have made me "over sleep".
So, morning YG, I'll have some coffee and hope for some company in the NEB for the morning snuggle. Hugs are good for your health. And feel good too.
I found Precious to be a very moving film experience. Disturbing in many ways, but a film that is very hard to forget.
Morning fog here today and it is to be sunny and about 72 later today.
We'll see what the day brings Hope no sandbagging Terrific explanation of the term, Gyre.
Cheers

G'morning everybody. I'm back in my home office where I can browse and chat from my personal computer while listening/watching boring teleconferences on my work 'puter. Last two weeks I had to sit in rooms full of people who expected me to at least look like I was paying attention.
Bad news, though - looks like I'm going to have to work the last week of August/first week of September. I'm still holding out hope, but I don't think I get to get dusty this year.
Marty - I'm sorry I missed the art preview, it sounded faboo.
Misa - here's one especially for you

Hi SD! That is one great picture!!! 
Please, dont tell me you wont be on Playa...I already made some psychical preparation for meeting big mad clown with a knife, who will be my personal stalker. Should I write them to give you free days? No, really, go!
Yg, it taste good...I love curd...
Baked potatoes with salty curd is heaven...

I hear ya', Yggy, but this is a big one. Long story I won't bore you with.
Jumping on the earlier white hair theme - I started going white in college, so white hair doesn't "feel" old to me. I kinda wish it would hurry up and go all the way, I think the dark patches make me look older than the white now.
Now the white pubes, THAT makes me feel old.

I wanna see the clown chasing Misa across the playa......
