"when they kiss they spit white noise" 

*swoon*

Did you make that up or did you borrow it?  Either way, it paints some poetically beautiful imagery. 

For some reason that sounds sinister yet fun.  Call me Pandora, but here goes- 

World headquarters for what?!   

Meant to respond to this earlier-  I hadn't heard about this until you posted.   I hate seeing large buildings being built when there are so many older ones that can be brought back to life with a little work, so this is good news! 

I think N & I are going to see Eagle Eye on Wednesday or Thursday night.  If anyone feels like joining us for a 7:30 show either day, let me know which one works best for you.  www.screenland.com/movie-eagle.html Just an FYI:  "W." will be the next movie Armour Screenland is showing.  ...

I - and I think most of us- tend to use the language of those we're directly dealing with.  Since "docent" is the word being used around these hare parts, that's the one i've been using.  But yeah, that's exactly what "docent" means: tour guide. 

:( Or AC.  This summer one of the Central Air units began failing us (we have zoned heating & cooling in our home), and that was a huge inconvenience.  Still, it was ours to deal with and we didn't have to wait around for the property managers to hire someone to fix it.  Of course I'd rather not...

:cheers:  We're looking forward to finally getting to meet you!  If you have any friends in your tourism org who'll get credit for doing this and might be interested, definitely have them get in touch w/ either barkerr or me.  I have most of my docents now, but I need two more charming people to hel...

If any socially gregarious, mostly mannerly person is willing to trade a few hours of their time in exchange for free admission to the Pendleton Heights Historic Homes Tour for free, pm me.   

Absolutely!  In addition to the physical benefits, owning property has emotional, intellectual and even spiritual benefits too.  It's a pleasantly surprising "bonus" when you begin experiencing those aspects of ownership. 

Really?  Interesting.  I only remember really good things about it.  Even great things!    :lol: The cost of living in/around Old Town isn't bad at all.  The brick streets, the cool little shops, the nifty little eateries are all pretty great, and considering the size of the city, I think they have ...

I used Friendster briefly, but joined Myspace and haven't gone back.  I check it regularly, at least every other day because most of my friends around the world use it too- it's a good way for us to stay in touch.  Other friends have tried to get me to do Facebook but I have too much going on in RL ...

Thanks for posting these beautiful pics, but boy, they sure made me homesick! 

Maybe for someone who lives in or near the Ozarks year 'round and has no plans of ever leaving, this is probably good and exciting news.  But for me, when i'm in the Ozarks, the last thing I want to see around me are chain businesses. I like going to non-chain restaurants and shops (when I bother ge...

"maybe worse" may be right.  Key word: maybe   If you're only viewing where you reside after work and on weekends as a place to rest your head (merely functional), then perhaps renting is best, especially in these tough financial times.  But if you're interested in creating a totally custo...

I wasn't able to attend the tour this year because of other pressing obligations.  Hearing how great it was is like pouring salt into an open wound. 

Eh, next year, right? 

Save the date   :) Here's your chance to visit Pendleton Heights, tour some of the homes, and get a first hand feel for why so many of us love living here. I have it on good authority that there'll be some open houses that day as well.  With the four houses that are officially on the tour plus any ...

  That's beautiful.

Yes, thanks so much- we had a great time and look forward to doing this again!  Armour Screenland and their staff is the best!
