1. Reality is over-rated anyway

What was that old quote? "Everyone talks about reality but no one does anything about it".

2. Reality. What a concept.

I think that one's a Robin Williamsism. But I like your quote, wheover came up with it.

But I must say it's been a pleasure being unreal with you, dude.

Oh, yeah: I got a spindle full of CD-Rs and I've finally started burning those disks for you... :headbang:

6. Cool!

We can sort it out later -- I'm just burning you stuff that you've got to have and then I'll check with you, after you got that load, to see what you want in the way of other stuff and audience recordings...all that, and random MP3s that I don't yet have in uncompressed form. It's all cool, of course, because we're talkin' 'bout The King. :-)

5. If I am not mistaken, Robin Williams' early stand up routine contained

a bit where he wore wire rimmed glasses, poked one of his fingers through the rim and said "reality, what a concept"

10. No wonder I adore you,

:hug:

You love Robin Williams too. I so love the way his mind works -- you have a quick wit like his, you ad lib like him too, going off on tangents and making points despite the warped subject matter.

When he and Jonathan Winters are together, my gosh, is that just not one of the funniest things to experience. :rofl:

11. :D

:hug:

Yeah, he is like what I imagine an amphetamine rush feels like, but funnier. I love the off-tha-wall stream-of-consciousness way that he works -- I know some of it's rehearsed or, at least, following a generla guideline, but the man is a brilliant improv type. Billy Connolly, the most excellent Scottish man who's a superstar just about every-Engish-speaking-where but the US, is kind of similar but way less manic -- they're good buddies. :-)

14. Could you imagine a little friendly get together at Williams house

with Jonathan Winters and Billy Connolly in attendance.

No booze or drugs would have to be served. :-)

12. Punchy?

Edited on Tue Dec-20-05 06:08 PM by ForrestGump

Someone spiked the punch? :o

Web services...wow...I don't balme you for being a little that way -- is your cold better, already? Feeling under the weather can't help. In fact, just thinking about reading about Web services suddenly has me feeling verrrrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyyyyyy :boring:

13. Yes, my cold is getting better

Just down to an annoying throat-clearing habit. Good thing I'm at home this week instead of the office.

How about yours? Are you feeling any better?

15. I'm glad about that, at least

;-)

Mine was never that bad, just enough to keep me confined to my room for most of the past three weeks -- annoying. But last night I began to cough and I think that sneaky SOB has moved into mychest...coughing too much now, which is about the worst I've felt all this time. :-(

Here's to your health, to my health, and to everybody's health...
