Adam Ant – Puss ‘N Boots

This brings me back. I loved Adam Ant in high school. Of course I wonder if he did this song just so he could say “Pussy.” heh. heh.

Blogging in November – plus my first uploaded video

Well, I am not doing NaNoWriMo this year. Not enough time. But, in solidarity with my NaNo friends, I will participate in NaBloPoMo!Last night I helped my parents with their trick-or-treaters. This lovely pumpkin greeted each child:

Sweet, Huh?

We had 62 trick-or-treaters. Most of them liked the pumpkin.

My earlobes are old

No. I am not going to show you any pictures.

Naughty

Aristophanes’ The Clouds is pretty naughty. (The link is so you can read its naughtiness.)

I rebooted my car today

It was time to leave the mall. I started my car. The sun was out, and since my car was parked in the sun, it was hot inside. So, like people do, I proceeded to roll down the power window.

Click.

Huh?

Driver’s side window wasn’t working. Click. Tried passenger side. Click. Back-window vents. Click.

Shit.

Maybe it was a fuse. I got out my trusty instruction manual. My power windows are on the same fuse as the ignition, yet my car was running. So…

I turned my car off.

I turned it back on.

My window worked.

Seriously, I rebooted my car!

Aww Shucks

Here are the comments from the van-naming survey:

1. Lanna is awesome! Have a cookie!
2. I also name my vehicles, my new car is mary, I like the stephen king reference….
3. I say HMC Blanche as in Her Majesty’s Chariot “Blanche”. On the other hand with the Haiwaiin flowers and depending on how you drive the Stitch mobile ( as in Lilo and STitch) might be more appropriate. Maybe Ohona van? clearly its too early for me:)
4. She has always depended upon the kindness of (Ford) Rangers.
5. I like Moby – the Great White MiniVan. Good idea, that one. But for some reason, when i saw the picture of the minivan the first time, the name “Beaver” sprang to mind. I don’t even know if it’s “Beaver” as in “The Beave” or as in the dam-builder.

Next post: the new name!
