    Was listening to my iPod today and Warren Zevon's "French Inhaler" came on. I hadn't listened to that song closely in a long time, but when I'm listening to something in headphones the lyrics always sink in more. I did an aural double take when he sang "in this sleazy bedroom town." I wonder if that inspired Don's line from "Last Worthless Evening", even if a couple letters are different and the songs are over a decade apart?

    Could be so Nancy I guess!

    On Friday I was listening to the Sports News and they commented that Padraig Harrington, an Irish golfer was '7 off the lead in the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro Am' Needless to say this reminded me of Glenn and also a few Borderers. What a PITY Glenn no longer plays this. It prompted me to read over the thread form 2008 where Nancy, Kay Molly and Kath went and had such a wonderful time!

    Oh gosh, GA - you have reminded me how much I miss Pebble Beach. But, whenever I get sad about Glenn not playing it anymore, I just remind myself how lucky I am to have been able to go when I did. I just wish that more Borderers had been able to go with us though. I don't have time right now, but I'll have to read over the Pebble Beach threads and do a little reminiscing again soon.

    Yes, Dreamer, that really was a wonderful time for all of you. I remember being , but seriously, I was amazed at how personable Glenn was. His whole approach and demeanour was completely heartwarming. And I was so happy for all of you - what an amazing experience that will stay with you for the rest of your lives.


    I've got a peaceful, easy feeling
    And I know Glenn won't let me down

    Earlier today I was watching the end of the film 'Working Girl' that I had recorded and there is a line where Alec Baldwin asks Melanie Griffiths 'how is life in the fast lane?'

    An email I just received from an Avon rep. Got my attention!

    Not a thing-she's making a rather lame attempt at saying if you're a go getter (an eagle) you can be a good Avon rep. Not biting on it. I keep my Avon rep status for my personal discounts only.

    In my history of Ethics class we were talking about the stoics (a group of philosophers) the handout talked about how we shoudn't let things get to us and he always uses quotes to kind of help us understand and for this one the paper said "In the words of the Eagles 'Take It Easy'"
