I would like to congratulate Buffista LisaH and her band, Secret Crush Society, for performing their first club show tonight. The songs were good and fun, and LisaH (the lead singer) was Buffista foaminess personified. May they play many more shows.
I've tried to march in the Slayer Pride Parade ...

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Thanks for the vibes, and keep 'em coming, because tomorrow's going to be a much tougher tournament.

Swouncing
Driveby to post I'll be mostly dark for the next couple of weeks - I'll be over at my parents for Passover, with the one small cranky computer having to be enough for the whole family.
Before I go, I'd like to mention how lucky the following week is, in terms of Buffistas birthdays. According to the Buffista Calendar, this Wednesday, April 16, is NoiseDesign's birthday; the following day, Thursday, April 17, is Sheryl's (whom I sure hope gets a proper celebration, despite it colliding with the holiday); the following day, Friday, April 18, is beth's. After a couple of days there's another strike, this time on Monday, April 21, with Elena's birthday, followed, on Tuesday, April 22, with Betsy's. Early wishes to all of you.
Happy holiday to those who celebrate it, and good days to all. I'll sure miss you.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Hi all,
Emailing from my sister's house.
My eldest brother Donald H. Jensen Jr, died sometime today at age 56.
I'll have more information later.
I'll likely not be posting, but I dunno right now. I may need the Buffistas for the moral support.
Things seem kerwonky.
More Later

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I got a 29 on the Putnam exam (a math competition), which puts me on the published list of the top 500 scores in the country.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Rob Curtis died at 1:30 a.m. on April 15, 2003. He is survived by his wife, Sadie, his son, Zachary, his father, his brother, and his sister. He will be missed.
Thanks to all the Buffistas for their love and support. It's meant a lot.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated
For those of you who don't know, I'm having back surgery today. I go into to the hospital around 2 p.m., and the surgery is scheduled for 4 p.m.
If all goes well, I'll actually be home tomorrow.
My Mom is going to call Trudy when the surgery is over, so that she can post here in Beep Me and let you all know that I'm fine and on my way to becoming bionic.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Going kinda gray for the next week or so. All things personal and professional are needing extra attention, so I need to back away for a bit.
I'll be back when things are more orderly and I can devote more time to buffistas. And by buffistas, I mean porn.
anyone that wants to reach me can do so via profile addy.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Just heard from Steph's Mom!
Teppy got out of surgery about an hour ago and the doctor says everything went well. She is still in recovery and her Mom and Dad haven't seen her yet. She should be coming around in the next hour or so and should be calling me herself (though not Herself) before too long.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Airlines suck. I would have to stay over for longer in Dallas and rent a car and a motel, etc.
Driving from Minnesota to Dallas. 1000 miles. I figure I'll drive and stop and walk and drive.
Wake and service for my brother on Thursday, and his funeral with military honors (Vietnam vet) at Dallas-Fort Worth National Cemetery on Friday.
Thank you all for your well wishes.
