Thursday blurs May, slurs, “Hey!”

1. Is This Interesting?
Thoughts/feelings that just might not matter:

Two wrongs don’t make a right, but three asides make a decent blog…

Did you know this? “At three minutes and four seconds after 2 AM on the 6th of May this year, the time and date will be 02:03:04 05/06/07.” That won’t happen again for another thousand years. Prepare thyself! I’m a’gonna put goat blood on my door frame just in case.

I’m looking into buying a car…a RED car. Is this a mistake? Would this purchase change my identity in some major way? No, I’m not much of a “red guy.” But I’m not much of a “gold guy” either, and I’ve been driving a gold car for eight years without incident.

From http://www.nypost.com/seven/05032007/gossip/pagesix/easily_scared_pagesix_.htm:

May 3, 2007 — KINDERGARTEN kids in ritzy L.A. suburb Calabasas have been coming home to their parents and talking about the “weird man” who keeps coming to their class to sing “scary” songs on his guitar. The “weird” one turns out to be Bob Dylan, whose grandson (Jakob Dylan’s son) attends the school. He’s been singing to the kindergarten class just for fun, but the kiddies have no idea they’re being serenaded by a musical legend - to them, he’s just Weird Guitar Guy.

Wow, I used to live in Calabasas! I suspect the label “Weird Guitar Guy” may satisfy Mr. Dylan even more than “musical legend” these days.

4.Quotopia
Freshly-picked quotes from the ol’ reference collection:

Who can do, don’t want to; Who wants to, can’t do; Who knows how to do, won’t do it; Who does it, doesn’t know how to; and, so, badly goes the world.
Italian proverb

5.Plumb, Plumber, Plumbest
Signs o’ the times from Austin’s singing Jewish plumber, Herman Bennett:
