Yes, no, and in the air tonight

Musical Monday: In The Air Tonight
Please scroll down for Monday Mayhem

It was either Don Johnson or someone whose name I didn't pay as much attention to. Globe-trotting, short-term boyfriend mentioned that he briefly worked with one Miami Vice actor. Then off he went out to finish a meeting while I stayed behind to finish viewing bundles of photos. In one snapshot the guy he pointed out as the actor preceded him on the stairs of a plane. My mind ambled along opening scenes of The Real McCoy; the roar of Ferrari as Burnett and Tubbs sped on a dark highway interspersed with Phil Collins' bark-like "oh lord, oh lord, oh lord..." God I must have existed in the 80s already :D

Monday Mayhem: Yes or No
Please scroll up for Musical Monday

Today's meme is based on the popular YES or No.

We will focus on the internet. Answer yes or no for each question. Because I am so very nice, I will allow you to tell one story about one of your answers.

HAVE YOU?

1. Googled yourself?
I thought it was silly, but I got to sort something someone said. Read: skin the little bug alive



2. Googled your neighbor?
Sometimes we're on the lift together; and as the mercury on the neighborliness thermometer plunges, so does the interest to bother about remembering that I don't even know their first names




3. Used Google maps to spy on someone?

You should be asking if I used google maps to locate Mt. Ararat






4. Spied on someone via Facebook?








5. Friended someone on Facebook that you don't know?
It's the other way around







6. Tweeted gossip?
not my style duh







7. Followed a celeb on Twitter?
I'd rather follow my own dreams







8. Kissed any one of your Facebook friends?
and loved it!




9. Regretted an online relationship?
knowing when to stop has its advantages







10. Dumped someone online?





11. Played a prank on someone online?








12. Spied on a High School bully online?
The bully in my high school must have had brains enough to victimize only those he could






13. Written a nasty email?
At my age, if I have to attack someone, I'll do it face to face







14. Sent something X-rated via email?
received - yes







15. Searched your state's/locality's database for predators?








16. Done an online search on someone's traffic offenses?
If it's not my concern, I don't bother







17. Ordered dinner online?








18. Purchased something over $250 online?








19. Left an anonymous comment?








20. Checked out someone else's email (as in spy on your s.o.)?
it's not me

Harriet, I had time :)

Amanda, Phil is one of my faves too! I like many of his other songs as well

Diane, I didn't realize this MM would become sort of an 80s flashback but well, it's always good to reminisce the days :D

Peggy, I don't know. Last time I saw him perform was at the Queen's Jubilee at the Buckingham in what year was that... I've forgotten which year was it. I will always like his hits though

Watch out for the urchin

Friends and I went island-hopping last year. My phone was changing indications of where we were several times. Names are difficult to read, much less remember. The main island where we hopped from is called Koh Chang or Elephant island. We went to five islets each taking about 15 minutes to reach. In a stop one of my friends encountered a sea urchin. They say a pee would cure the sting. I don't know if it's true. Another thing I heard about urchins is they could sense and would crawl towards human presence. Probably for more prickly attention? Although sometimes paradise has a price, the sky was blue, the sun was shining, the weather perfect and the breeze was just what our city-dwelling lungs needed. All is well. *** My World Tuesday is brought to you by Klaus and the My World Team Sandy , Wren , Fishing Guy , Sylvia

Pretentious Diet

Our Weekend Memoirs: Dieting on Eggs Please scroll down for Sunday Stealing The chinese guy selling noodles in front of 7 Eleven also sells eggs. I wanted to buy some but he was busy with his customers and I couldn't wait. Back in front of the pc, a recent report that Margaret Thatcher's pre-election victory diet included 28 eggs a week had me reading more than I normally would big news. She is said to have told an interviewer that she had "no special dieting regime." Her pocket diary, which was released by the Margaret Thatcher Archive Trust seems to have revealed otherwise. But don't we all sometimes like to keep others wondering? The Iron Lady's husband though gives it to us straight and cool. When asked "who wears the pants in this house?" He replied, "I do. And I also iron them." This anecdote is exactly what I thought of while my southeast asian ass err... blood was quivering in the London cold as I stood on this famous street. Then M...
