    Re: The random thought thread

    If a cluttered desk is the sign of a cluttered mind, then I ask what is the mindset of an empty desk?

            The band "Kansas" is on tour in at least the U.S. this year, so if you like that type of music keep an eye out for that. If they're advertising out here in the periphery I'd guess they have tour dates near the core.

            I used to like them until they came out with the song "Dust in the Wind". Eugh. About enough of that.

            At least in the ad I heard they are on tour with the band "Winger". I still like them.

            It's a good thing they are on tour this time of year. Back in the '80s, the band "Blue Oyster Cult" was on tour during the dead of winter. For some reason their tour bus didn't have #1 diesel or a winter additive like "Power Serve", so the fuel gelled up near the truck stop I was working at while I was in college. The bus had to get towed to the stop's garage to get warmed up.
            They were some of the nicest guys that ever stopped there. Apparently they even gave out some tour jackets then, but I didn't get one because I was out sticking the tanks at that time. D'oh.

                Cool story. I love BOC. Seen them 4 or 5 times. By the way, I think I have mentioned before that cats are assholes.
