She's a fitness buff who likes to unwind by working out to music by heavy-metal legends Led Zeppelin.

In February 2001, Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon told reporters he was distracted the first time he met her. "I have to confess, it was hard for me to concentrate in the conversation with Condoleezza Rice because she has such nice legs."

She says she can fall asleep just about anywhere — even once in a helicopter flying over the Gaza Strip.

SING ALONG WITH ME:
Hey, YOU, getOFFA my Cloud!

I worked in Gary, IN Friday
driving through "one of your thick north-Indiana fogs-- thank God it obliterates the view-- in a rented Tracer bearing me into... nowhere. The middle of nowhere. Oh, not the middle of nowhere like the rest of Indiana, but a nowhere so fat and ugly you want to lie down in a ditch and never get up again. A shriveled, worn-out, beatup cornstalk nowhere, the kind of place where the cream of society is the owner of the IGA grocery mart. The sort of spot where a girl is said to have 'made it big' when she ascends to the position of lap-counter for Mario Andretti. Where the men strive in the Hammond steel mills or strain in the barley fields in which they were born to die. This is the sticks, honey"
......E Jean Carroll

Now that I think about it, my bad haircut is OK!
"Four years ago I had dinner at Lotus - Donald Trump and Melania Knauss were a few tables away. You've got to give them big points for consistency - their behavior was so exactly what you'd expect that they almost seemed like a hologram projection. Even four years ago Trump's hair was insane - I think it had its own dinner and a bottle of champagne. The girlfriend didn't even pretend to eat."

Mystery Protest
from the NYTimes (Sept 1): "Roughly an hour later, dozens of officers responded to an obscure corner near the exchange at South William Street and Mill Lane, where protesters had stretched a ball of yarn across the street.

Within minutes, 14 young people sat handcuffed and seated with their backs to a wall near the short pedestrian mall, surrounded by three or four times as many police officers. Several balls of red and yellow yarn were strewn about the street, and a boom box sat nearby with a sign on a bedsheet reading "Celebrate the Power of Money." One of the protesters wore a pinstriped suit and a beret.

"New bride Britney also donned a pink sweatsuit as she danced with her new hubby, and even performed a provocative pole dance..."

It had to Happen...

Last night's episode of CSI: New York cashed in on the Hip to Knit Fad. Featured Murder Weapon du Jour?

A knitting needle!

ChicKnits scoffs in their general direction however, because when the owner of said needle was initially interogated, she explained testily how knitting calms her down and held up a dog blanket to prove her point.

ALAS! It was a funky crocheted afghan...

if you're happy and you know it, turn the volmne up and Blow It Out!

1.) Total amount of music files on your computer: I just got an iPod - am in the process of siphoning off my faves from my CD collection - am at about 5 Gb. THIS IS MORE FUN THAN a barrel of Sock Monkeys! I was never much into my current CD player because it needed to be fed so often. I used to have a 5-disk cartridge model, but that one bit the dust when a friend's kid forced the cartridge into the player upside down. This kid was the only kid at an adult party and he was, in his words: "bored"...

My iPod lives in the house in a JBL On Stage donut speaker. WHOOT!

2.) The last CD you bought was: Believe it or not, my shoe obsession is only surpassed by my CD/Tunes obsession. I was (self)banned from Best Buy for YEARS after I would go by on Friday nights after work and suck all the CDs out of the music department into my cart.

I actually broke down and bought a couple of CDs when I was in Borders around Christmas: Norah Jones/"Feels Like Home"; Yo-Yo Ma/"obridgado BRAZIL"; and Sinatra/"Classic Performances".
I LOVE all types of music...

3.) What is the last song you listened to before reading this message: "Rich Girl"/Gwen Stefani with Eve

4.) Write down 5 songs you listen to often or that mean a lot to you: oooohhh, too many to narrow this down - how about whatever just flings out of my mind right now... I've been on an 80's bender and love me a song by REM called "Half a World Away". Everytime I hear Bonnie Raitt's "I Can't Make You Love Me" I burst into tears. "Ruby Tuesday" by the Rolling Stones - I have a tattoo on my upper left arm that reads "Ruby" and it's been the tattoo's favorite for years. Nirvana/"Come as You Are" - from Unplugged. Kermit Ruffins & the Barbecue Swingers/"Peep This Groove Out". Snopp Dogg/"Beautiful." Sinatra/"ZING Went the Strings of My Heart".

5.) Who are you going to pass this stick to (3 persons) and why? My good friend Diane, who is a Music Super FREAK; my friend Lorri - who has been on a cool Roots bender; and my friend Alan who is a World Music Guru...

Hopefully, some iMixes will land in my mailbox... I LOVE cruising other people's Playlists on iMix...

...thanks Jackie

10pm on the #66
Teenage thug takes feet off seat when he sees me glaring at him as I board. I pull out my knitting and he says loudly while shaking his head, "This is the Hood, Bit**!" And, I reply, calmly, "And this is Knitting in the Hood, Bit**."

Thank God

Perelandra

ooooh...
I've been enjoying this second book in the Trilogy - just finished


Out of the Silent Planet

the trilogy's first volume. Perelandra continues the adventures of Dr. Ransom and his interplanetarey quest of good vs. evil. I'm finding it alternately corny (Lewis is a hilarious writer and lampoons all sorts of period social evils) and downright SCARY. Me thinks I should find less provacative Bedtime Reading?

...an oldie but goodie from the Yahoo KnitList

KNITTERS NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS

Twas the night before Christmas and all around me
There was unfinished knitting not under the tree,
The stockings weren't hung by the chimney with care
'Cause the heels and the toes had not a stitch there.

The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
But I had not finished the caps for their heads.
Dad was asleep---he was no help at all.
And the sweater for him was 6" too small.

When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I put down my needles to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash.
Tripped over my yarn and fell down in my stash.
The tangle of yarn that lay deep as the snow
Reminded me how far I still had to go.

When out on the lawn I heard such a noise,
I was sure it would wake up both Dad and the boys.
And although I was tired--my brain a bit thick,
I knew in a moment that it must be St Nick.

Yet what I heard left me very perplex-ed
For nothing I heard was what I expect-ed.
"Move Rowan! Move Patons! Move Koigu and Clover!
Move Shelridge! Move Starmore! Move Spinrite!
Move over!

Lopi, don't circle around, just stand there in line.
Pay attention you sheep and you'll work out just fine!
I know this is hard as it's just your first year
But I'd hate to go back to 8 tiny reindeer."

I peered over the sill. What I saw was amazing:
Eight wooly sheep on my lawn all a-grazing!
And then in a twinkle, I heard at the door
Santa's big boots stomping on the porch floor.

I rose from my knees and got back on my feet.
As I turned around, St Nick I did meet.
He was dressed all in wool from his head to his toe
And his clothes were hand knit from above to below.

A bright Fair Isle sweater he wore on his back.
And his toys were all stuffed in an Aran knit sack.
His hat was a wonder of bobbles and lace
A beautiful frame for his rosey red face.

The scarf on his neck could have stretched for a mile,
And the socks peeking over his boots were Argyle.
On the back of his mitts was an intricate cable.

And suddenly on one I spotted a small label:
"S.C." in duplicate on the cuff.
So I asked, "Hey, Nick, did YOU knit all this stuff?"
He proudly replied, "Ho, ho, ho, yes I did.
I learned how to knit when I was just a kid."

He was chubby and plump, a well dressed old man,
And I laughed to myself, for I'd thought up a plan.
I flashed him a grin and jumped up in the air,
And the next thing he knew, he was tied to a chair.

He spoke not a word, but looked down in his lap
Where I had laid my needles and yarn for a cap.
He began then to knit, first one cap then 2--
For the first time I thought I might really get through.

He put heels in the stockings and toes in some socks,
While I sat back drinking a scotch on the rocks. Quickly like magic his needles they flew,
Good Grief! He was finished by two!

He sprang for his sleigh when I let him go free,
And over his shoulder he looked back at me.
I heard him explain as he sailed past the moon,
"Next year, start your knitting sometime around JUNE!
