Wireless came about 20 minutes ago and it is now set up completely, with only one wire visible for the dsl modem. AirTunes works great, the network works great, everything is great. I smiled once again when I opened the packaging, I just love the way apple packages its products, it's very modern I guess you could say. Whatever it is, I like it and it makes me smile.

Rush Concert Soon!
Hello children, it's Mr. Hall again. I'm just letting you know that if you don't have your Rush rickets by now, time is running out. You need to get them now, while there are still seats left! I can't imagine an amazing band like Rush not selling out and arena. School is almost back. I'm starting prepare already. I'm rereading all the material that I will teach you children. I hope you have some interesting, historical stories about summer break or there's gonna be alot more reading in class. Good day everyone, and remember your Rush tickets.

Oh yea, junior class last year was TERRIBLE! Every last one of those dorks was a waste of my time.

:: Music: RUSH - La Villa Strangiato

I found out that there is a little more to this song than I originally thought. Looking through the album sleeve I found that this song has a dual title and 12 seperate parts. I'll list it as I found it.

La Villa Strangiato
(An exercise in Self-Indulgence)

I - Buenos Nochas, Mein Froinds!
II - To sleep, perchance to dream...
III - Strangiato theme
IV - A Lerxst in Wonderland
V - Monsters!
VI - The Ghost of Aragon
VII - Danforth and Pape
VIII - The Waltz of the Shreves
IX - Never turn your back on a Monster!
X - Monsters! (Reprise)
XI - Strangiato theme (Reprise)
XII - A Farewell to Things

XII being an obvious play on words based on the Rush album "A Farewell to Kings"
It's a little more interesting listening to the song now with these parts in mind. It's worth it to download it at least and listen to the song any maybe try to put the parts together. it's a great rock instrumental

Chain Mail With Meaning

From Mer

TO MY CHILD

Just for this morning, I am going to step over the laundry, and pick you up and take you to the park to play.

Just for this morning, I will leave the dishes in the sink, and let you teach me how to put that puzzle of yours together.

Just for this afternoon, I will unplug the telephone and keep the computer off, and sit with you in the backyard and blow bubbles.

Just for this afternoon, I will not yell once, not even a tiny grumble when you scream and whine for the ice cream truck, and I will buy you one if he comes by.

Just for this afternoon, I won't worry about what you are going to be when you grow up, or second-guess every decision I have made where you are concerned.

Just for this afternoon, I will let you help me bake cookies, and I won't stand over you trying to fix them.

Just for this afternoon, I will take us to McDonald's and buy us both a Happy Meal so you can have both toys.

Just for this evening, I will hold you in my arms and tell you a story about how you were born and how much I love you.

Just for this evening, I will let you splash in the tub and not get angry.

Just for this evening, I will let you stay up late while we sit on the porch and count all the stars.

Just for this evening, I will snuggle beside you for hours, and miss my favorite TV shows.

Just for this evening when I run my finger through your hair as you pray, I will simply be grateful that God has given me the greatest gift even given.

I will think about the mothers and fathers who are searching for their missing children, the mothers and fathers who are visiting their children's graves instead of their bedrooms, and mothers and fathers who are in hospital rooms watching their children suffer senselessly, and screaming inside that they can't handle it anymore.

And when I kiss you good night I will hold you a little tighter, a little longer. It is then, that I will thank God for you, and ask him for nothing, except one more day.............

On a happier note.. the fireworks look beautiful tonight.

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY EVERYONE!!!

With love...
