Welcome to the new weblog! I hope this software will be less troublesome than what I was dealing with before. The old weblog will be available for a while right here, until I get around to cleaning up to get more space.
I was in a meeting this morning, noticing how they had the lights on at Comiskey Park (sorry, “US Cellular Field”– yeesh), when these three small planes with trailing banners start circling downtown. One banner said “Stand Up,” another said “Fight Back,” and the third said “Walk Tall.” At first, I thought it was from some group with a political agenda, but then I remembered there’s some new movie starring The Rock coming out, so that’s probably what it’s all about. Besides, I can’t imagine any political group getting permission to circle a major city in three small planes.
After the meeting, against my better judgment, I went down to the Corner Bakery to get a bagel. Let’s just say that when I’m in charge around here, every single Corner Bakery is going to be turned into a dry cleaners or some place that provides something that remotely resembles service. They told me if I wanted a bagel I would have to wait “until they were done in 15 minutes.” And this was at 9:00 in the morning. Very nice.
So I wound up across the street at the Worst McDonald’s in the World. By the time I got back, I probably would have had my lousy bagel.
Okay, enough of my griping.
My radio site is now officially on its own, and I’ve done a lot of cleaning up on the www.jtl.us server. Some space has been cleared up, but there’s still more to do.
I loaded up some old Moody Blues on the iPod last night. “A Question of Balance” and “To Our Children’s Children’s Children,” both from 1970. It seems I’ve been stuck in that year lately– I was listening to “Jesus Christ Superstar” the other night.
More in a while.
