Bizarre thought of the day.

I was doing something at work today with lists of names and noticed the name "Oberdorf".

Where did my goofy brain go?

One Dorf to rule them all and in the darkness bind them...

I am such a geek.

Argh!!

A tape is stuck in my VCR!

I think one of the mechanisms that "pops" the tape out has finally given up.

It makes me sad. The VCR was a gift from an ex-fiancée. It's been part of my life for ten years. It is a great VCR. Or...it was a great VCR.

I'm so bummed. I love my sweet VCR...it has been a nice companion for ten years. It is still in terrific shape, excepting the part about the tape imprisoned within.

Just had to RAWR there. Thanks for listening.

Pics

I am supposed to be working on taxes, but it's far, far, far too depressing, so I am uploading pictures instead.

I used to take a lot of black and white pictures, but I've mostly stopped. They were awful.

About four years ago I thought I'd try to use up one last roll of black & white film. Our beautiful old Ford tractor was spending its last night in the driveway, and I thought I'd chronicle its last evening with us.

( Six images, beware... )
