Been on two scary ones - but am unable to go on the ones that flip you upside down - like the one at the New York, New York casino in vegas. My glasses would fall off.

I already know that the likelihood of one of the Major Players posting important information in the blog comments is almost nil, so I don't think about it.

tpbm wishes we could just get to The Burn already.

TPBM wonders how, exactly, when you are doing the sonic toothbrush advised technique of brushing in quadrants, you make sure that you have adequate toothpaste in the 2nd, 3rd and 4th quadrant.

I would look rather silly in a bra, which is actually a good enough reason for me to shop for one.

Hm. Maybe. I dunno, high country tragedy isn't my style. I do like banjos and fiddles and slide guitars, though.

TPBM has just purchased some music that s/he's wanted for over a decade.

yes, that am so true!! I am having found rare Alpen-polka recording from early last century, it is almost the rock and rolling of your 60's music, but with "oompah".

(if I play correct)

TPBM loves music of Alps region.
