 Monday Madness 1. Where you live, what kind of weather (or weather-related tragedy) do you fear the most? Freezing rain... Blizzards... As a mail carrier with a mounted (driving) route, this type of weather terrifies me. 2. What kind of weather do you MOST enjoy? Warm (high 70s/low 80s) sunny days. Honestly, isn't that the kind of weather that everyone enjoys? 3. What kind of weather do you LEAST like to drive in? Ice and snow... Alas, my job requires that I must drive in it, like it or not. 4. What is the scariest weather-related experience you've had in your lifetime? Getting stuck in a snow drift on a fairly deserted road, back in the days before we all had cell phones. I had to wait in the cold for someone to come along to help me. I thought that I was going to be stuck there FOREVER! 5. Share a "weather picture" with us!

Top Five On Friday Top five albums that you would recommend to all your fellow memers and why. 1. Thank You 4.... - Michael Schenker  This acoustic instrumental has a calming drug-like effect! 2. Humanity Hour I - Scorpions  Finally being released in the US on Tuesday, this new Scorpions album is INCREDIBLE! (I've had it for months. Imported from Germany. I don't like waiting!) 3. 33 1/3 - George Harrison  Humor, spirituality... This album is everything that is good in George! 4. Tales Of Rock 'n' Roll - Michael Schenker Group  If you've never listened to Michael's band, this 25th anniversary CD is a good place to start. It features every vocalist that has ever been with his band. 5. Giving Sight To The Eye - Kelly Keeling  This is the bayou boy's only solo album. It's well worth the listen, if you can find a copy...

 Take Me Back Tuesday It's back to school time... ~ What songs remind you of the end of summer? Forever Autumn - Justin Hayward California Dreamin' - The Mamas & The Pappas ~ What were/are some of the musical needs you had fill before heading back to school? Damn! That was almost thirty years ago... About the only thing I can remember having to have at the beginning of every year was new strings for the guitar. ~ The Beach Boys said, "Be True To Your School" are you? Hell, no! I hated that place. ~ Are there any songs that really make you think of the classroom, whether it be the lower grades, high school or college? Smoking In The Boys' Room - Brownsville Station Wonderful World - Herman's Hermits

Monday Madness 1. How many desktop computers in your home? There are two working desktop computers in my home, mine and Michael's... There is also one non-working computer. Perhaps when I feel brave someday I'll fix it up. 2. How many laptops? Just my ancient IBM Think Pad. I call it Old Reliable. 3. What kind of internet service do you have? (i.e. phone modem, dsl, etc.) I finally got DSL service last October. The dreadful slowness of dial-up is now just a distant memory. 4. Do you tend to use more than one email account regularly? Although I have several email accounts, I only use one regularly. 5. Do you use email as a main source for communicating to your family and friends? No, my blogs and my LJ are used for that purpose much more frequently. 6. What kind of computer monitor do you own (flatscreen, or other)? My computer has a big old clunky 17 inch monitor. Michael has a nice new flat panel monitor. I WANT ONE!!!!

Take Me Back Tuesday Back in the day before the internet ruled the earth and people went to malls etc... What was your favorite record store? Dee's Record Shop And that is exactly what I bought there, vinyl record albums, hundreds of them. If they didn't have it, they could get it for you! Are there any non-chain stores that you still frequent for your music needs? The aforementioned store still exists, although now it is more of a bill paying and video rental place. They DO still have a small stock of new and used CDs, though. What was your favorite "find" at your favorite store? I found my very first copy of the Scorpions' Face The Heat there. I was paying my phone bill and turned around and saw it looking so sad and lonely. I just HAD to take it home with me!

Monday Madness 1. What ONE thing would you like to accomplish before the end of the day? Just getting done with the day at work was a major issue for me today... 2. What one goal would you like to attain before the end of the month? I'll be happy just to get through the month with a little money left in my bank accounts. It's always something sucking my money away, or so it seems... 3. Are you a "to-do list" writer? If so, do you stick to your list and cross things off as you complete them? If I've ever written one, I probably ignored it. 4. In general, how organized do you feel you are? NOT AT ALL! 5. How many piles of papers/junk mail/etc. do you have laying around your house? I don't know. I began counting, but I ran out of fingers and toes! 6. Which ONE surface in your home do you have trouble keeping clean? Um.... All of them!
