My first blog of 2012!! woo-hoo!!.......bout time.....
Greetings one and all, finally got around to doing another blog...and as it happens, the first blog of the new year! just grabbed my last cup of coffee for the day, and just started my next to last load of laundry, the usual for a sunday...monotony..gotta love it!! embrace the monotony! heh.....as you may have noticed..at least i hope you have noticed...a new banner on my blog page......a banner for originalabsinthe.com...what is absinthe you ask? well, its an anise flavired spirit made with wormwood.....green in color..and exceedingly bitter straight up...which is why most drinkers use the old ritual of a sugar cube, water and an absinthe or slotted spoon...ive never had it but i am very curious....it used to be arround 136 proof! it still hovers around 90 to 150 proof depending on brand..and now the ban in the US has been lifted...i am saving my pennies to buy a bottle, i'll consider it a once in a lifetime treat....seeing as it takes me so long to empty a bottle of booze it may well just last a lifetime! another reason i put that banner on my site if they will give me a free absinthe spoon for advertising their site..and after a year of advertising their site, a free bottle of absinthe! so i may end up with 2 bottles depending on how long it takes to drink the one i am going to buy!! the pictures i am putting inthis blog are of an absinthe sppon and glass, and the bottle i am saving for..only 140 proof!! woo-hoo!!!! ok, i'll calm down now......at that alcohol level it will probably last 2 lifetimes!! anywho......as previously stated, i am doing laundry right now...i think i am goingto finally get around to fixing somoe c64 keyboars..i finally have the parts and tools necessary to attempt to build an external c64 keyboard......ive seen pics online of someone who has done it..so i am going to try it...mainly because it will be hard to have all the wires attached to the keyboard, and all drives etc nearby and be comfortable to type...so my hope is to have a long keyboard cable so i can sit on the bed and type...pr play games or whatever......need to figure where to put the 1541's or 1571's depending which i choose to use...and i am still planning to build an amiga tower of sorts..tower the cd and hard drives etc but not the motherboard or anything...i found out what it would take to build an external amiga keyboard and i have no intention of trying to solder on my miggy motherboard......ive got a little folding stool i can sit on......as ive mentioned before..change is in the air...well its still there, and the feeling has grown stronger as of late...i'm thinking and working more and more to starting my own business of some sort...either an online business, or a discount office supply, i dont know...i'm constantly thinking about the possibilitlies....something weird is going on and i dont want to be caught up in it..so we'll see......main hurdle is financing..if i can solve that conundrum i'll be well on my way! other than that..normal sunday..ive got to go to the store for milk..mom wants to make pancakes for lunch! and the games start in a bit..so i bid thee adieu....until next time....
