Happy Bastille Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Happy Bastille Day to my French friends (I don't have any). Bastille Day is actually a funny thing... the liberation of its prisoners in 1789 by revolutionaries began the French Revolution. But, it was practiacally empty. A mere seven people were imprisioned! Imagine 100's of people storming a prison to liberate all these wrongfully jailed people... and there's only seven there! Ha, ha, ha!

Speaking of France.... vive le Tour de France. American Floyd Landis still dons the maillot jaune. U-S-A, U-S-A!!!

One of my co-workers lost her husband to Cancer on July 11. The funeral was today (July 14). I went. So, that was my second funeral ever and I don't think I'm going to do that anymore. That's just some sad stuff. I say no more dying. I haven't thought about the logistics of eternal life... and the drag it will be on economic and natural rescouces. I mean, a lot of people are employed because of the whole "death industry."

So, all you all that read this... no dying because I sure as hell am not going to another funeral! But, you all are invited to mine and mandated to attend! =) God willing, that's still a number of years away!

I finally got to go out mountain biking today.... after an unsettling two week hiatus. My "in-shapeness" hadn't deteriorated as much as I thought. I'm still really liking the whole mountain biking thing. When you're in shape and finally get the hang of it... it's actually quite a rush! I like it.

Hmmmm... what else.... my birthday is in three days. That's pretty exciting.... to me.
