I worked over and hour and a few minutes this morning again. However, I am off tonight, but I have a lot to accomplish today before I can relax. Will has a dental appointment at 10:30 in Hurst at the NE Clinic and I have no idea how long that will take. After I bring him home, then I am off to my old stomping grounds in Irving (where I lived before I moved to Arkansas) to visit my best Gal Pal, Jennifer. She called over the weekend to inform me she fell at work on Friday and broke both her knees. She is in much pain and not to mobile at the moment, so I want to go over to give her some TLC. I will stop on the way to get some flowers or a plant to help brighten her spirits a little. That should put me back home in late afternoon, way past my bedtime, before I can finally lay me down to rest. I am glad I am off or I would be one tired puppy if I had to turn around and work tonight on 3 or 4 hours of sleep. Oh well, such is the life of your Uncle Gerry when everyone needs a piece of his time. So I best get this posted before I have to get my act together and start running all over town. Today's featured composer is a Frenchman who studied under the German composer Cesar Franck at the Conservatoire in Paris. The play list includes String Quartets Numbers 1 in D Major, Opus 35 (1890) and 2 in E Major, Opus 45 (1897) by Vincent D'Indy performed by the Kodaly Quartet, a Hungarian Quartet, known originally as the Sebestyen Quartet. They changed the name in 1969 to honor their countryman, composer Zoltan Kodaly. While you are listening to the French Quartets written in the German Style and played by a Hungarian Quartet, you can scroll on down the page to check out all the scrumptious Sexy Studs in Swimwear on display for your visual appreciation. So now I need to get my act together and get on the road so I can eventually end up back home, hopefully before traffic time this evening (rush hour sucks coming towards Fort Worth from Irving). Thanks for the visit, see you again tomorrow. Until next time as always, Enjoy!

Monday Meanderings
I had a long weekend at work as I worked 13 hours on Saturday then had to go in early last night and stay late this morning. Therefore I did not get much prep work done beforehand, so I am running a little behind this morning in getting this posted. However I still have some things that I think will interest you guys today. In my email, I get weekly suggestions from StumbleUpon and this week one of the recommendations was this tripy little flash game you can play online to occupy some time when there is not much going on. It is colorful and fun to bat the balls around to see what the little star trails do. Then in my Google Reader I subscribe to Bill Mullins' Tech Thoughts blog and one of the reviews he did this week was for the International Computer Science Institute's Netalyzer program that gives you a run down on your Internet connection and system performance. ICSI is associated with UC Berkeley and is one of the leading independent computer research institutes in the US. You can read all about Netalyzer and their home net profiler program here then decide for yourself if you would like to try the programs out.
Then to entertain you today, I have put together a play list containing Piano Quartets Numbers 1 in A Minor, Opus 43; 2 in E Major, Opus 44, and 3 in G Major, Opus 50 by Friedrich Kiel performed by Ulrike-Anima Mathe, Hariolf Schlichtig, Xenia Jankovic and Oliver Triendl. The play list is followed in due course by this week's edition of those marvelous men in their Monday's Undies for your visual appreciation and to help get your week off on the right foot. Thanks for the visit, see you again tomorrow. Until next time as always, Enjoy!
