 Murphy's Law in full effect...??? - edited version...wooohooo baby!
 

OK, no more of this BS.Just as the lameassed 32" TV was replaced, it gets here in time to substitute for the 37" one that all of a sudden powers on and shows nada.If I were not a man of faith, the world would be quite unsafe for my being disgruntled and feeling as though I am karmically fucked, though I do not recall what ill I did that could be rebounding...so Karma be damned, its just happenstance and I shall get over it and am doing so very much by just venting as I write.Damn I need some good ganja and hot tea and some pity sex...lmao...barring that I will just remain calm and focus on the fact that I am well and soon yet another lawsuit will settle and it will be BMW shoppin and VEGAS BABY! Fuckin A Shit Skippy! as we used to say in SE Mass. All the best to all of y'all, pat the dog and kiss the baby and appreciate all the small things, like food and clean water and love. TCBS BC


ADDENDUM: the 32" TV a-holes just had Fedex leave me another 32" LCD as we speak!!! Fuck Murphy! I also got out of my stocks before they ate my ass...so its a good day today...10/19/2006 11:00 AM EST HAHA!

 What art movement are you?
 

You Are Impressionism
You think the world is quite beautiful, especially if you look at it in new and interesting ways. You tend to focus on color and movement in art. For you, seeing the big picture is much more important than recording every little detail. You can find inspiration anywhere... especially from nature.
again, it fits...TCBS BC

 What is your Celtic horoscope?
 

You Are An Apple Tree
You are quiet and shy at times, but you have lots of charm and appeal. You are quite attractive: your pleasant attitude, flirtatious smile, and adventurous spirit draw people in. Sensitive and loyal in love, you want to love and be loved. You are a faithful and tender partner - who is generous in sharing your many talents. You love children, and you need an affectionate partner.
awww well well now lmao BC

 Giant diamond sells for more than $12 million- from reuters.com

ANTWERP, Belgium, Oct 9 (Reuters Life!) - The biggest diamond to be found in 13 years, the "Lesotho Promise," was sold on Monday at auction for more than $12 million and is expected to fetch in excess of $20 million once it is cut up.
The 603-carat (120 gram) diamond, named after the tiny African mountain kingdom where it was found, went under the hammer at the Antwerp Diamond Center and was sold to the South African Diamond Corporation, owner of luxury jewellers Graff.
The 10th largest white diamond ever to be found, it will be cut into a large heart-shaped diamond and several smaller stones which will then be sold. The uncut diamond is a third bigger than a golf ball.
Johnny Kneller from the South African Diamond Corporation said that once it was cut up, he expected to sell the stones for a third more than the auction price.
"We can't say for sure but we hope it's going to fetch over $20 million," Kneller said.

Diamonds have long been a status symbol and were famously serenaded as a girl's best friend by Marilyn Monroe in the 1950s film "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes."
Growing affluence has boosted sales and busy shopping streets such as London's Bond Street are awash with jewellers and luxury goods stores offering right-hand diamond rings for well-heeled women.
The biggest rough diamond ever found was the Cullinan at 3,106 carats, while the second largest, the Excelsior, was 995 carats. Both were found in South Africa.
The Lesotho diamond was found at the Letseng Diamond Mine high in the mountains of the tiny nation which is surrounded by South Africa, by a woman who was sorting through the rocks.
"She started screaming and all the staff thought she had been electrocuted," said Clifford Elphick, head of Gem Diamond Mining, which owns 70 percent of the mine.
He said he was very pleased with the price that the gem had fetched.
just dig the size of this stone...woof Mama!! TCBS BC
