Being loved is more important than being respected.

I'm gonna buy a generator I can call my own,
To turn out power others cannot tap,
And on those icy icy nights
When the others have no lights
I'll be sittin' watching television pap!
When I get home it will be waiting
I'll fire it up with just a single pop!
Oh, I'I'm gonna have a gennie I can call my own,
For when Maine Electric shudders to a stop.

(Sung to Gentle Annie)

Your buttons are very neat, generator,
And I'm sure your amperage breaker won't be tripped,
But I'll put stablizer in your gas tank,
To ensure your voltage regulator takes no dip.

When it comes to back-up generators,
You just can't beat propane!

Propane,
All around my brain!

Cheerily,

We've just had one of the best days.

Coffee with an old, dear friend this morning, time spent with Tom Coward (Mr Trubrit) making out wills and power of attorney.

We got home to a phone call from Gordon Bok, asking if he could come over and play us a tune. We thought about it and decided, since we weren't doing anything else, that we could spare the time. :0)

Shortly after Gordon got here two of Kendall's daughters, Debra and Rebecca, turned up, unexpectedly. Gordon played us his tune on his new Apollonio guitar and then played and sang a few other songs for us.

Now, how many people can say that they've had a Gordon Bok mini concert in their own sitting rooms?

Kendall's girls also gave him the DVD of Clash Of The Titans, which we have just finished watching this evening.

Oh, and I've just found out that my range has increased to where I can just get away with singing Danny Boy.

Rap - I like the song and it has always been one that I never thought I could sing because the range was beyond me. It's just nice to know that practice has paid off.

Oh yes - the shirt.

Deb gave Kendall a black tee shirt with the legend 'Heavy Mental Music' emblazoned across the front and a diamonte skull and crossbones motif, just to finish the effect.

I've told Kendall that this will go very well with his dark blue suit - not worn since 1987, but which fits him very well - that he will be wearing for the Grammys.

I'll make sure to get photos.

Not many people can handle the range of "Danny Boy", Jacqui -- congratulations!

Why can't I download a copy of any of your photos from Flickr?

I'd really like a copy of Kendall in "The Shirt"! It's a GREAT shirt! (And on a great guy -- you're a lucky lady, Jacqui!)

Thinking a lot about both of you these days.

Kendall - that is only three weeks away. Barely time to get back from the Grammys, unpack, launder and re-pack.

How about holding up an x-ray of your vocal cords and thank Phillip Morris as part of your speech?

Actually, I think Kendall may be dreading the Grammys far more than any surgery. And waiting until the 16th - well, that could be downright good news!

So let me get this straight - Geeta's wearing a FABULOUS gown, I'm wearing a tux with a bolo tie made out of guitar strings, Jacqui's wearing thrift store chic and Kendall's wearing an ol' tee-shirt. we'll make an interesting set.

I vote with SINS and Kat: Leather and hat, Kendall!

Dan, Jacqui's thrift store chic is "Claire's-thrift-store-karma" thrift store chic (I am very good at divining treasure from thrift shops), which means she will be looking fabulous. No worries.

I love the guitar-string bolo idea! And I sure hope I'll catch a glimpse of that fabulous gown Geeta will be wearing.

You will all look perfectly and appropriately attired.

One question: Will you be attending the main event, so that your red-carpet moment may be televised (at least in the background while they're focusing on Lady Ga-Ga), even though the award presentation won't be?
