Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

My mother and father are funkless.

Thank god.

Amen. Happily, my parents are the one set of liberal socially-conscious democrats in the family, yet were born too soon to have joined the flower children and done anything remotely scandalous before old fogey-tude set in. It's the best of both worlds!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

The visit with my parents(who are very much funk-less) was pretty good, although I was quite happy to go back home by the end.(That's normal for a visit of longer than 36 hours) My Adorable Nephew(who is referred to as "the prince" by my mom) is still quite adorable and rambunctous.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Matt'd parents are my mother. Or something.

Sophia, did you try the "test" and "reset" buttons that DX mentioned, yesterday. That happened to us once at old house. And whatever triggered it didn't trip the button on the outlet, or the switch on the Circuit Breaker board.

I cannot find any of these buttons. Of course, this leads me to believe that my apartment is not up to code...

An electrician is supposedly coming tomorrow, but my landlords will meet him, so I don't have to be here. Apparantly when her father and husband were trying to fix it they almost electrocuted themselves and caused giant blue flames.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

They have no funk. My mother is now trying to sing Petula Clark. She's never heard Brickhouse. George Clinton means nothing to her.

Having just met your parents, this is even funnier.

My mom had very eclectic taste in music, from Carmina Burana to Peter Gabriel. Whereas my dad liked jazz almost exclusively.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Ah, excessive. No wonder.
