to rent or not to rent

If you'll recall from yesterday, I was rejected in my initial attempt to rent space on another blog on Blog Explosion. So the obvious strategy is if you can't beat them, join them!

As you can see to the right, I'm attempting to rent out my blog. I am now a blog ho. I've not decided if I feel cheapened yet but Hell, I've always known I could be bought for the right price so mentally I should be able to adjust! LOL

Did anyone out there catch the recent episode of Lost? I thought it was pretty interesting--especially the comment that the people that were taken were the good ones. That both dovetails with some of the first season at the same time it contradicts it. No doubt the statement isn't backwards compatible with the first season since I suspect they'd not planned quite this far ahead.

Locke's belief that the Island is a transition area for working out the issues holding them back spiritually kinda works but the fact that almost nobody from their group had been taken away seems odd since the tail group lost 11 members--almost 12--to the kidnappings.

Going back another day, Commander in Chief was a very packed episode. For some reason my girlfriend's (yes, the banner is for her--it's accurate too) DVR didn't record that episode and I was telling her about the major plot changes and it took me a good 10 minutes. Now that Mac (President Allen to you!) has something to hold over Nathan Templeton things might shift a bit--esp since his chief aide seems to be out of the picture. Maybe.

I love Commander in Chief. First time I've been interested in politics.

The whole only good people were taken kind of fits in with the theory floating around that the Island is purgatory, and those stuck there are in transition.

I like that idea...and the one that t's all one giant experiment. But I try to not think about it too hard, or my brain hurts.

Here via Michele's tonight :)

Mona!?! I am cut to the quick. LOL

Thumper, I know what you mean. I had a lot more fun with theories about Lost during the first half of last season. Now it's just getting too complicated!

Lost is killing me. The suspense of it. Ok, did anyone else notice this....
when the two (was in Jin and Michael? I can't remember) were hiding in the bushes and the "others" walked by, it was very Flinstone-y in that the same pairs of legs walked by twice...was that on purpose, or did they run out of extras that day?
I need to get out more.

Tara, I didn't notice the same legs walking by twice. Interesting. I suspect it was a lack of an extra--but with that show you never know. I doubt it was meaningful but they might have done it on purpose just to see how many people would notice.

Mar, I'll keep updating on the renting process. I have one offer so far and it's from a blog I like.

I noticed the legs too! Lost is my favorite show, but I try not to go overboard with the theories of what is happening and why they are there. I just like to see it unfold.

Never watched the prez, but probably will in re-runs.

Michele sent me this a.m.

Please, please don't post about Lost. Or at least post a discalimer for all of us who are still in season one. I'm doing via DVD and am totally, totally addicted. :-)

After reading your lost few posts, I am thinking of devote more time to trying to increase my traffic on my own blog. I haven't really even bothered. So, any suggestions? How much time do you spend blogging or in related endeavors. I'm curious.

I'd be willing to rent my blog. Just waiting for a big envelope of cash to show up in my mailbox.

Hi Utenzi. I'm back from Michele's - after the long, dangerous cycle home. I think I'm more stupid than brave, but whatever the case I will still ride as long as the roads are passable. Temperature doesn't scare me: ice does.

I'm glad you're sticking with the renting thing. I really ought to give it a try soon...you've inspired me.

Nitroflex at home

Image
I mentioned a few days ago that I'd purchased off of Craig's List an exercise machine. A Nitroflex, to be more specific, for the grand sum of $75. The boxes you see to the left were bought by the seller as discontinued merchandise over a year ago and stored in his back yard storage shed. You might be able to see some of the bugs and such that had made their homes on these boxes. I left them out on my deck for a few days before opening them to allow the insects to leave gracefully or die in the sun. The picture to the left is the pieces from the box, unboxed, and up in one of my upstairs bedrooms. For the most part it wasn't difficult to move it around though two pieces were heavy and a number of them were kinda long and bulky to be wandering about the house with. Surprisingly, this kit didn't require any extra tools. There were two allen keys and one combo wrench included in the boxes and that was all it took to put it together. The whole thing only took about half an h...

ankle update

S ince a few people object to seeing my feet --poor misdirected souls--I have the two pictures below hidden behind links. Behold them at your own risk! *evil laugh* Actually they're not scary though the first one is a little colorful. T he first picture shows my ankle and foot from the side, as labeled. You can see a lot of general edema of the entire foot. There's also a good bit of discoloration of the ankle area and to a lesser degree the top of the foot all the way down to the toes. The side view is a lot worse in this regard than the top view. T he second picture shows the two feet from the top so you can compare the somewhat normal looking right foot to the injured left foot. There's not much abnormal color on this view but you can see the "sausage like" swelling of the left foot. It's this swelling that is causing my main problem--I can't get the foot into my boots and I need the boots to support the ankle. Damn Catch-22. Side view, looking inward ...

Ostrich poop found here

Image
I took these pictures last Fall while visiting the NC Zoo. On the left you can see what appears to be a nice polite ostrich just wandering around. This impression soon turns out to be false when her dowdy tail feathers raise up and reveal a puckered anus. Ewwww! If you look carefully, you can see that she's made a deposit on the ground. More ewwww! Feel free to click on the image to make them bigger. Details can make all the difference in these shots. In other matters, aren't those really bony legs they have? And couldn't they have a little more color?
