    Greetings!
    I am taking my extra day off next weekend. My daughter & I will be attending the Iron Maiden show in Irvine on Friday the 30th for her 20th birthday present.
    I managed to score 1st row center section seats with backstage passes, so she is pretty stoked. She is by no means as much a fan as me, but has learned an appreciation thru osmosis.

    I'm planning to stay home and work on my basement shop build. I'm almost finished - I'm thinking about epoxying the floor this weekend. I also bought an old 30's Boise Crane wood lathe that I'm picking up on Saturday. So the weekend is pretty much filled with projects.

    Man, I have never liked their music, but they had some of the coolest posters ever in the 80s.

    No Rush,
    No Maiden,
    No Star Wars,
    No Michael Bay,
    No Silent Running,

    It seems the only thing we have in common is black & the VX

    No Silent Running? That movie rocked! ;-)

    I bet he doesn't like Dark Star either! Killer orange beach balls FTW!

    Darkstar is good stuff. John Carpenter is THE MAN. And Dan O'bannon is responsible for some of my favorite sci-fi of all time! Silent Running, as I have said before, was a cool idea, but the execution was so drawn out and painful, and it pretty much takes the cake for the worst movie music in cinematic history. I think it is the only movie I have ever had to mute for extended periods of time.

    PS - James, I'm sure we can talk movies for HOURS if we ever get that camping trip together.

    Cool

    Not to get TOO far back on topic...

    I started the weekend by going in to work late, but made up for it by leaving early.

    Then came home, changed my oil, picked up a phat check from a client, & now I'm going out to give Suzy some suds lovin'. (carwash you pervs)

    No other "carved in stone" plans, except for cemetery maintence. (freshen up the flowers for the ancestors)

    Everyone stay safe & have fun!
