Didn’t we already establish this fact? Now it’s even more official!

Stolen from Maddy! Like you really needed more clues I’m stuck in the 80s: The last FOUR vehicles I’ve had, including the one I have now, have been 1984-88 models; I still have an old 386 Bondwell Laptop; it still has Displaywrite 4 and Zork I, II and III on it; I still have two cassettes I taped on my old Marantz tape deck back in 1986 [Billy Squier and Loverboy]…. Three of my top five favorite movies are movies of the 1980s (Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, Top Gun and Poltergeist). Do you want me to go on? It’s kinda sick, really.

But go ahead and join in the madness … listen to I’m a Pasty White, Scrawny English Dude With a Big Voice (Rick Astley) (6.1MB). Enjoy!

Leaves on a steep set of stairs is a safety hazard. I almost fell on my big butt the other day scrambling down the stairs (running late as usual). A slick, wet leaf (or two or ten of them) (not an unusual circumstance in humid Houston) was nearly my downfall (literally).

Here’s some before and after pics.
