No, we don’t really have ice. But they’re bringing & installing our central a/c unit today. :cheer: Then we’ll be ready for the Really Warm Temps.

I’m listening to Sirius Satellite Radio’s Disorder channel. They play Celtic music on Saturdays from 9:00am to noon. Just finished up with The Kennedys’ Dharma Cafe which is a really catchy little tune. :) Now they’re playing Fairport Convention. They’re singing Ricky Nelson’s Garden Party in Gaelic! :confused68:

An interesting tidbit in the news today:

Explorers find Nile’s ‘true source’
Surviving a rebel attack and braving crocodile-infested waters, a group of explorers has completed an 80-day voyage down the world’s longest river reaching what they say is the source of the Nile.

Funny, I thought they’d discovered that 150 years ago!

  1. I thought they had too – didn’t Stanley or Livingston or some such person discover it? Now I’m confused – oh wait, I’m always confused.:shock:

    A morning of Celtic music – bliss.

    :whoo: On the A/C – we’re expecting rain and the humidity is terrible.

  5. Eve, yep! But apparently Livingstone was wrong. :rofl: These guys claim the Nile is 66 miles longer than previously thought.

    Silma, they got the a/c installed just in the nick of time! It’s starting to warm up quite a bit here. Probably warmer where you are, though. :)

    Michelle, hearing Garden Party in Gaelic was very… disconcerting!

    Kacey, I get Sirius as part of my Dish Network package, so no radio, per se. I listen on TV. :) The only thing I don’t get are the talk radio channels. Just the music. :rocker:

  7. of COURSE you get them on the TV. I should have thought of that. I’m very behind the time, TV-wise…
