I felt clever when I came up with this A&J back in 2007, but as I get older it can be viewed from a different perspective, and “clever” is not the word to describe how it makes me feel. It strikes most often when I walk into a room looking for something.

Good one!
My own sense of Deja Vu are more along the lines of the little guy from MIB-III, “Oh no, not the one where Kay forgot to leave a tip, again”.
What a thought, Jimmy. Reminds me of the Sunday cartoon when Linus van Pelt became “aware of his tongue.” Whoda thought.
Isn’t that what’s called “Deja New?”
i’ve always called that vue ja dea

On my last job, my fellow managers and I often experienced Deja Moo…the sudden feeling we had heard that BS from Administration before.
Almost forgot: any Villagers from MA? Happy Patriot’s Day. Peace,
Today was B-day 61 for my bride of 37.9 years (anniversary will be on Sunday). My 65th B-day is tomorrow. Her sister’s B-Day in on the 27th.
Add in anything owed to the IRS or the state and April becomes an expensive month!
As for the telescope adventures:
Though it wasn’t the best sky out with some high, thin clouds, my wife and I actually made it out to a nearby field where we could see nearly twice as much of the sky as from our back yard.
Lessons learned: (1) You’ve got to level the tripod for the SkyAlign feature to work well. (2) The PowerTank *can* be attached to a tripod leg, but before long you’re going to have its power cord wrapped around the base of the telescope. Next time I’m going to just set it on the ground and move it as needed. (3) The HighPoint Plossl eyepieces are much better than the ones that came with my little Orion ‘scope. (4) Using a red dot finder gets confusing when the cell tower next to the field has its red warning beacon in your field of view!

What’s up, this weekend is fastidious for me, for the reason that this
occasion i am reading this wonderful informative post here at my

An impressive share! I have just forwarded this onto a friend who had been doing
a little research on this. And he in fact ordered me dinner because I discovered it

But yeah, thanx for spending some time to talk about this
topic here on your blog.

you sound like you know what you’re talking about! Thanks
Hi there! This is my 1st comment here so I just wanted to give a quick shout out and tell you I really enjoy reading your blog posts.
Can you recommend any other blogs/websites/forums that cover the same subjects?
Many thanks!
Ahaa, its good dialogue about this paragraph here at this website,
I have read all that, so at this time me also commenting here.
When someone writes an paragraph he/she keeps the image of a user in his/her
brain that how a user can be aware of it. So that’s why this paragraph is perfect.
Thanks!
