no time

This is no time to post something. I have to leave pretty soon for the rolling session.
I have been reading several blogs, sometimes finding them through google/blog searches for random words, and I have to say, I think that blogs (in the blogosphere?) represent the best Internet content out there. Except mine, but that's not the purpose of this blog anyway.

If you are reading this and are unhappy, I have two suggestions. Take either one. But not both!


1. examine this site: http://www.ustream.tv/SFShiba

2. do a random google/blog search for the first word that pops into your head.

;-)



OK you can do both.

Seasons' Greetings

No Grinch here.

This year has been good. I got on several new (to me) whitewater runs:

French Broad
Pigeon
Lower Yough
Ohiopyle Falls

and back on an old friend, with a new teacher- the Middle Ocoee with Jeff West.

AND the new (to me) flat water runs:
Cahaba Grants mill to Overton
Cahaba Helena to Alabama Small Boats
Buffalo River in Arkansas

I worked hard on my roll and will continue to do so.

On the vertical side of things, I participted in another Bridge Day,
Did Valhalla and Moses' Tomb for the first time,
and ascended Whitesides Mtn. for the first time too.

I finally bought a mandolin and I can play it pretty damn well.

A couple of 5k's, a new cat Tessa that I have nicknamed Lord Voldermort, and a lot more gray hair.

AND if I manage two more weeks I can also mark off a year Without A Major Accident, and a year without A Trip To The Hospital.

yippie!

Jealous Guy

great song by Lennon

I was dreaming of the past.
And my heart was beating fast,
I began to lose control,
I began to lose control,

I didn't mean to hurt you,
I'm sorry that I mad you cry,
I didn't want to hurt you,
I'm just a jealous guy,

I was feeling insecure,
You night not love me any more,

I was shivering inside,
I was shivering inside,

I was trying to catch your eyes,
Thought that you were trying to hide,
I was swallowing my pain,
I was swallowing my pain.
