Convicted

From a Yahoo News story: By Miral Fahmy “The top five most offensive workplace behaviors are not saying hello or good morning, not offering office guests a beverage, speaking loudly across the room, using swear words and taking calls on mobile phones. The use of stationery without permission and asking colleagues about their personal lives are also deemed insulting. Australians are very natural in their business style, perhaps more so than workers in any other country in the world.” The story went on to say that Australians are considered the rudest workplace people on earth because they are guilty of practicing all of the above described behaviors. I would not know. I do remember that Australia was initially colonized by British convicts. That’s all I know. This lady is Australian and she looks very polite to me.

Your body

This is Lilli Ewing - she is a bodybuilder. I have no idea how a woman can be such a great bodybuilder and still be as feminine as she is. I don't need to know. All I can say is that it is possible. I admire Lilli Ewing's dedication to her chosen field. She is a great athlete. She is one of my friends on MySpace and (of course) she has her own terrific website and videos on YouTube (http://bodyspace.bodybuilding.com/LilliMarlene/). With just half her motivation I would really be something.

Copyright infringement (theft)

As I was saying, my friend Hans Rosenfeld - theatre producer, artist, and inventor - wrote the script for a fabulous theatre production. He created all the characters - all of them robots. He called the production by another name (which I will reveal later). Then, along come some smart people from Hollywood who proclaim to be very interested in the production. The fundraising begins in earnest. The project is sidelined by 911 events. Next thing you know - the movie ROBOTS comes out - almost an exact replica of Mr Rosenfeld's project. What is he to do????

Pretty horses

Well, if I have enough pictures handy I can post one with every blog. Why not? I received a forwarded email from my trusted friend this afternoon. She thought it was good. All it showed was a guy riding several horses and doing odd tricks. No thanks. Las Vegas has plenty of those. Washington, D.C., too.
