i'm quite impressed w/ the budget deficits we are currently running, and how they seem to get no mention in the news. whatever happened to the balanced budget amendment? i *remember* such a thing. perhaps it was a dream.

Robert James. if my mamma had intended for me to go by my first two names, they would have a hyphen between them. so says me. my SC relatives insisted on using both my names. i used to tell them - o...

my favorite name is Katherine. almost infinitely malleable to fit the wearer (Kitty, Kat, Kathy, Kate, Rina, Katya....), but by itself is classic. and, it's a family name. another family name is Bryson. would LOVE to know how that one came about. found it on a headstone in a small TN church graveyard.

i REALLY LIKE the phallic ironwork. i'm gonna have to remember that and use it in some design work someday.

i could put it in somebody's house, someone who'd appreciate it, so i still get paid for doing it, and get repeat business. :)

i am not fond of dave matthews. not sure why.

i've got no problems w/ sheryl crow. actually, i don't change the station when her stuff is on the radio. can't say that for dave though.
