Scots use different guitar strings because of the damp. My soon came back from the mists of Aberdeen with green fingertips from his North American copper-wounds.

The Thing I Learned Yesterday - If you shop on line, make sure you do it at least a week before you actually need the stuff.

The Thing I Learned today - I do not have cancer.

Mightily relieved by the latter as you can imagine.

Glad you got good news Heather!

Not sure if it works the same in the UK, but Amazon Prime may be worth the money for membership. Free 2 Day shipping (pretty good record based on my experiences). Well worth it if you buy things for relatives in different parts of the country, tons of access to Music, Movies and TV shows.

Thanks.

It just shows that it pays to get it checked if you see something abnormal. At least I know that it's not cancer now and is a common condition that can have similar symptoms, plus I've now got the treatment I need.

Very glad to hear it, Heather. Always worth getting these things checked.
Likes the warm feeling but is tired of all the dehydration.

We all have to go sometime, some way. Tee hee hee. Who put him in charge of every god damned thing?
Fucking relax.

Remember when he put himself in a freaking wheelchair so as not to have to stand up for the first black American President?
Moving furniture in the Vice Presidential residence... :roll:

Also, his tour rider is the worst I've ever read, boring bastard.

What kind of choreograph-adonna plans for a wardrobe tweak on a set of slippery stairs? LoL. Not to mention the rampant horns at the ready for a dramatic onstage impaling?

That dancer is in for a world of hurt. Considering this is the same woman who laughed on film about her hair stylist being sexually assaulted while on tour with her in NYC.

I actually liked younger Madonna, before she shared so much. :roll:

You should never wear a cape. Unless you're Batman, of course. Then it's obligatory.

I'm nearly certain there's an interesting story behind this learned thing. I'm afraid to ask for details though.

Well i'm assuming FH is referring to Frances' Madonna post. If not, I definitely want to know what the story is :shock:
