    Evan rec0rded this into a little VOR computer dictation program. I think it sensed pauses and stopped recording when he paused. He was really little and we sent it to Grace in an email. I just found it in a old backup. Recording things like this doesn’t seem all that important at the time. But it sure is.

    But of course

    this is San Antonio’s cup of choice. (caffine confession: I stop at Bill Miller’s for a 50 cent refill into this very bucket twice a day.)

    Can you match this?

    Jimmie got bit by Jesse. I’ll let her tell that story, maybe after the stitches come out and the Vicodin wears off. So anyway Taylor and I were doing a little housework to make things nicer for her. While putting the cups up from the dishwasher, we decided we had to take this picture. Jimmie is a master dish breaker and keeps any good stuff put out of reach and the odder a cup is the more the boys and I like it so Jimmie decided years ago to just have a cup and glass menagerie. Taylor and I were thinking the collection had a nice extra odd look to it today and a photo was required. The little Pokeman jelly glass is my favorite. But for real South Texas ice tea drinking, those thick Mason canning jars are the bomb. That thin, tall glass at the left front is the Invisible Man. We can’t understand how it hasn’t been broken. We give it a week, max.

    What a way to go!

    Kevin Kelly asked his readers for help finding one and he shares the responses with all. “Tunesmith” by Jimmy Webb is included, along with many i’ve never heard of with descriptions and explanations.

    Books on Audio: Books on Tape and CD Rental Program from Cracker Barrel

    Here at Whippleworld, we always check out an audio book from the library for long car trips. Now we have another option should the need arise. The cool part is that you buy one book and then exchange it for a new one at any Cracker Barrel location. They just charge a fee of $3.99/week. And they have food.
    No wonder the place is so popular.

    Kevin Kelly — Cool Tools
    I seem to be spending all my spare time browsing through this site. It’s full of gadgets and gizmos, which is right up my alley. But there’s no attention to the price, which is against my grain.
    Still it’s a good place to get ideas and then search elsewhere for a better price - or play that game of imagining what I’d buy if money were no object.

    New Temporary Addition to Whippleworld

    Well I’m getting a room mate. Growing up I had a best friend named Tiffany, who moved to Houston my freshman year of high school . Well she doesn’t have anywhere to go , like I am sure many of you experianced in you early 20’s, so she is moving into my extra bedroom for a month or two. She was like my sister growing up so I’m happy to help her out any way I can - thanks mom and dad you sure are nice ! The real test is the fact that I am a messy person and she is a neat freak (anyone see a Jerry Springer show about to happen?). I have lived alone since I was 14 , so if anyone has any advise on living with a roomate lay it on me.

    Weight Loss Update # 1

    Well it has been 3 weeks and I have somehow managed to stick to this South Beach Diet. I have lost 15 lbs - Yeah ! I basically eat meat of all kinds, a little cheese, and lots of vegtables. It helps that I got a new job waiting tables at a steak house where I get 50 % off food. So I’ll order a steak eat half at work and then take the rest home and eat it later. Regular exercise is key and it sure does make you feel good. I’m bound to hit a plateu soon, but so far this whole diet thing is going great.

    Chris, what’s this?

    on the front page of the Hohner website. Everybody needs to plan to come to the 10th Annual Tejas VIP Party at the Cadillac Bar on Friday March 11th at 7:00. Glenn and Kim are going to play. They’re going to do me a huge favor and run the upstairs stage. We were talking about Gibson recently, they’re sponsoring that VIP room. This 10th Anniversary might just be a big one, ya never know.
