Which is Followed by Wednesday

A Wednesday marked (too) periodically by headache-induced nosebleeds.  When you've got tissue stuffed up one nostril and are having to keep your head leaning back, you think all kinds of things.

People complain about the English saying someone is "in hospital" or "at Uni," but we say, "going to school" or being "at work."

Thursday's my favorite day of the week.  It has been for as long as I can remember.

Tap has been asleep a very long time, and he's snoring loudly.

Kim asked a while ago if I'd ever watched "The Wizard of Oz" while playing "Dark Side of the Moon."  I have.  I even played it in class, when we discussed urban legends.  I've also played the radio broadcast of "the War of the Worlds" in class.

Did you know that "Amazing Grace" and "House of the Rising Sun" have interchangeable melodies?

Why is my nose STILL bleeding?
