And hopefully they will find his head ![[Linked Image from aximsite.com]](http://www.aximsite.com/boards/images/smilies/laugh.gif) ...I had to dig a little (if you'll pardon the expression) for what your emoticon was in reference to...but when I found it, it was well worth the search! I'll take your laughing-guy and raise you one. Thanks, Phil!

1801 - A 1,235 pound cheese ball was pressed at the farm of Elisha Brown, Jr. The huge ball of cheese was later loaded on a horse-driven wagon and presented to President Thomas Jefferson at the White House. Mr. Jefferson was heard to say, “That’s one small bite for man, one giant cheese for mankind.”
1961 - Stop the World, I Want to Get Off opened in London. The show went to Broadway in 1962. Coincidence? Pigs burp.

Everyone in the Middle Ages believed -- as Aristotle had -- that the heart was the seat of intelligence. Might we not be better offif we stillbelieved it?

Are we going to continue to buy this bullcrap from the administration and let them run out the clock until the 2008 election, when they can turn over the whole stinking Iraq mess to the incoming Democratic administration? And the answer is,"Yes."But I shareyour frustration.

Nice opening today, Scout. One giant cheese for mankind. I noticed allison cheesehead posted on yesterday's RT. Welcome back, allison! Hope everyone out on the Left Coast is all right after that quake. Gotta wonder, Jeffro, who in th' heck is out driving at that hour of the morning? The Chinese reporter who broke the story about shredded cardboard being the major component of CHinese buns is now in jail. the government claims he made it all up. What does the good Pastor think? Did he or didn't he? Never been accused of that acursed act of thinking, but it seems that 162 factories closing, the killing of their FDA head as a criminal penalty, teethpast killing humans, and animal additives killing pets internationally, then I suspect that the reporter probably got it right.

Reporting back about Ralph's dowtown LA, it is called "Fresh" and is apparently part of a new upscale market chain under the Ralphs name. Very nice market, was mobbed today so much that it was difficult to get through it.
Then again, it is a market.
From there to lunch at a nice place near the Staples Center called "Liberty". Boy that area is shooting up like crazy. There are eight or ten new towers and lots of conversions of older commercial buildings into lofts and condos. And there are plans for several buildings in the 35-50 story range around what is called South Park (I could not find Kenny, Stan or the rest of the gang anywhere however).
Opposite Staples is the new LA Live complex with is a billion dollar plus commercial-entertainment-residential project. The transformation of downtown is the most dramatic since its decline in the 1950's.
I drove downtown on Olympic, for all you familiar with LA, and it has inspired me to a new photographic project with a tentative title of "Avenues and Boulevards". I want to shoot the length of Olympic, Wilshire, Third, Sixth, Beverly and santa Monica boulevards west to downtown. There is such an incredible diversity of ethnic and clutural identities along each that only can be found in this area.
