I haven't had enough caffeine to make sense of that.

I suspect alcohol might be more useful than caffeine in that regard.

I suggest that you start chopping words off the end until it makes sense.

That is my preferred approach. I hate that feeling where a perfectly reasonable sentence veers off beyond control.

GC--all the ~ma in the world to your household today.

yeah, it's Monday.

I messed up some invoices last week. Nothing end of the world, but ugh. Then Blackberry wasn't getting email, then no coffee, then boss didn't get his ff miles for a flight. ducks at ankles.

ducks at ankles.

The ducks are out in force today. Must remember to avoid the Public Garden or I'll be re-enacting scenes from Hitchock I fear.

Remember that little spat between the Rolling Stones and the Hells Angels? Something about the Stones being dissatisfied with the quality of the security provided by the Hells Angels at a Stones concert?

Hell's Angels Plotted To Kill Mick Jagger

LONDON — Rolling Stones singer Mick Jagger escaped an assassination plot hatched in 1969 by the Hells Angels, a new British Broadcasting Corp. documentary has claimed.

A program to be broadcast on BBC Radio 4 on Monday says the rock star was the target of the plot following a purported dispute with the motorcycle gang over concert security.

Jagger had vowed not to use Hells Angel members as bouncers following the death in December 1969 of an 18-year-old fan at a notorious free performance at Altamont Speedway in Northern California.

In return, gang members hatched a plan to kill Jagger at his holiday home in Long Island, New York, the BBC claimed.

"The Hells Angels were so angered by Jagger's treatment of them that they decided to kill him," Tom Mangold, the presenter of the program, was quoted as telling Britain's Sunday Telegraph newspaper.

He said the plan was disclosed during an interview with Mark Young, a former FBI officer, for the BBC's "The FBI at 100" documentary.

Mangold said the men tried to reach Jagger by sea. "The boat was hit by a storm and all of the men were thrown overboard," he was quoted as saying. They all survived but made no other attempt on his life, Mangold said.

Something about the whole affair ending with a capsized boat of Hells Angels is amusing. "Dudes. You're out of your element. (Please don't kill me.)"

GC, good luck on surgery and on the vet.

We have the vast majority of stuff moved into the new house. There are some odds and ends. But oh man. Am I tired? YES.

Something about the whole affair ending with a capsized boat of Hells Angels is amusing.

I'm amazed they actually learned from their mistake. I could see them having another go at it with similar results.

> The absorption of some earlier cults into the newer pantheon versus those that resisted being absorbed is suggested as providing the later myths that seem confusing however.

This makes no sense at all.

I am getting really sick of having crazy or annoying students. I guess I just lucked out last semester, but last year I had the crazy, rich, rascist kid and this semester I have THREE girls who cannot seem to remember to show up, or tell me they can do things and can't or just in general are completely fluff headed, and then blame it on me for not being clear. I just want to make them go away!

Also, above that dachshund is the cutest puggle ever!

The sentence has too many prepositional phrases, is passive, and goes completely off the rails at the end.

Just because I am in the office at 7:30 does not mean I am prepared for human interaction.

On work days, I'm a sociopath when I wake up, but you don't see me running around and stabbing people in the face with letter openers, so morning people should exercise the same restraint.
