Was it really almost 20 years ago?

That Stephanie Seymour was a known model? What ever happened to her? Maybe she should not have married whats-his-face?

Bring back the double album.

Quote of the Day [12.05.08]

“Now, it is a fact, that there was nothing at all particular about the knocker on the door, except that it was very large. It is also a fact, that Scrooge had seen it, night and morning, during his whole residence in that place; also that Scrooge had as little of what is called fancy about him as any man in the city of London, even including—which is a bold word—the corporation, aldermen, and livery. Let it also be borne in mind that Scrooge had not bestowed one thought on Marley, since his last mention of his seven years’ dead partner that afternoon. And then let any man explain to me, if he can, how it happened that Scrooge, having his key in the lock of the door, saw in the knocker, without its undergoing any intermediate process of change—not a knocker, but Marley’s face.”

A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens

I haven’t started shopping for the holiday season. It seems we’ve made a pack to only by the kids a present, and also to buy siblings, but none for anyone else. That’s like a really sad Christmas. This economy is making us all into Scrooges. I have to strike some people from my list. Maybe you?

I’m probably gonna use the new Amazon iPhone app to do my Christmas shopping. Or maybe not as I hope to get all I need before the end of next week.
