Guilt - I could write a book. But I'll restrain myself. More thoughts after coffee.

Guilt and anxiety have always been tough for me.

Gotta stay in the present.

Oh, and Jen... That Pic I put up recently of the Panties stuck on a Gal's Hoodie by Static wasn't directed specifically at anyone here. I promise. :angel:

Welcome HighDraw!

Good to see everyone filing in for the weekend!

Frustrated at work today. Going to back off a bit and let things just lay. Perfection is not necessary.

good topic Ken.

I know all about guilt.

I didn't expect to look out the window this morning and see new white stuff covering the ground. It's around 15 (-10) and a bit windy. I saw 'my' chickadees brushing the new snow aside to get at the seeds.

Plugged computer into big screen and watched 'training modules' instead of netflix last night. I wonder what the range is on a wireless mouse...

It's suppose to get very cold here and colder up in weaselville - and snow. Not apposed to go above freezing for the next five days with a half foot of snow on Monday, the wife's birthday and she wants to go out! It's also presidents day - more on that later.

LUNAR!

Congrats on shotgun lunar!

At least Johns lawyer is creative???? Glad I stopped at 2 DWIs....those were bad enough. I try not to live in the past....that's guilts favorite domain. I work at living responsibly and humbly, now. I know the things that lead to a guilty conscience and I steer clear of those things now.

Off to work yippee!
Xoxo

Hi, Enders!

Great intro, Weasel!

We are driving to upstate NY this weekend for my son's gymnastics meet. Road trip through MI, OH, PA:) Cow counting, here we come....! I'd welcome any ideas for car ride games.

My youngest has the stomach flu but appears on the mend, however my packing and errands for the trip have come to a screeching halt. Pray, send mojo, whatever you've got....that this one doesn't float to everyone in the house. :gaah

I wish everyone a safe, sober and guilt-free weekend.

I was looking at the photo in the bay news about the beer batter guy. I was waiting to read, "A 47 year old Wisconsin man..."
I guess he blames that gin blossom on beer batter as well...

And since I am discussing topical news. One wonders whether or not all songs come from a real experience or just imagination - 'just my imagination' is a good song too.

Might as well start us out with a tune dedicated to our gal up in Canada... not that there's anything wrong with that...

trivia time: when this album was first released there was a photo of Lucille Ball in one of the 'windows'. After a hasty lawsuit they had to reissue the album and recall what what still on the shelves. And a few other changes were made.
If you have that 'original' album cover it is worth HUNDREDS of dollars. Mine is a first release with the new and improved cover art. darn...

Also dedicated to our gal from Up North:

I'm in. Sending wishes of a healthy household and safe trip, Dharma.

Hard to let go of the guilt sometimes but it is so important.

Congrats Lunar on double barrel shotgun.

Four day weekend for me starting tomorrow. Yes!

Mesa, I wonder if your name comes from where you live or from mesa amps...

anyway, here's the scoop on the original album cover (wiki) that could fetch around 30 bucks in good condition - better to keep it really... there actually was never a lawsuit - just the threat was enough...

The album cover for Some Girls had concept origination, art direction and design by Peter Corriston, who would conceive and design the next three album covers as well. [2] An elaborate die-cut design, with colours varying on different sleeves, it featured The Rolling Stones faces alongside those of select female celebrities inserted into a copy of an old Valmor Products Corporation advertisement. The cover design was challenged legally when Lucille Ball, Farrah Fawcett, Liza Minnelli (representing her mother Judy Garland), Raquel Welch, and the estate of Marilyn Monroe threatened to sue for the use of their likenesses without permission.[2] Similarly, Valmor did take legal action and were given a monetary award for the use of their design.[7]

The album was quickly re-issued with a redesigned cover that removed all the celebrities whether they had complained or not, and were replaced with black and punk style garish colours with the phrase Pardon our appearance - cover under re-construction. Jagger later apologised to Minnelli when he encountered her during a party at the famous discothèque Studio 54. The only celebrity whose face was not removed was that of ex-Beatle George Harrison. A third version of the album cover with hand-drawn women was found on the 1986 CD reissue.
