Three and one half Time Outs Tuesday.....the "Nothin' Special" Edition.

Time once again for a 3 1/2 Time-Outs-Tuesday. After a recent faux pas, I now make doubly sure that LarryD has posted his 3 1/2 Time-Outs-Tuesday before I post mine.

1)
I want to thank LarryD's regulars for stopping by my blog after he put a link to one of my posts on his blog yesterday.

2)
As some of you know, I'm recuperating from surgery. The doctor has temporarily removed me from work and there is precious little he -or my wife- will allow me to do around the house. Unfortunately, one of the few chores I can do is my least favorite. Writing this post postpones my washing the dishes and for that I'm very much grateful.

3)
I never thought I'd see the day, but my six year old is no longer in his Thomas the Tank Engine phase. Just before his last birthday, he switched over from Thomas and Percy to Mario and Luigi. His transformation is so complete that his favorite color has changed from blue to red. I don't quite understand that, though. Mario wears blue overalls. I suppose hat and shirt trumps overalls. Go figure.
I never thought I'd say this, but I actually miss hearing the Thomas theme song.

1/2)
Not being so great with names, I've often confused Right winger Haley Barbour with Democrat strategist Bob Beckel. I don't think I'll have that problem now. I can always associate Beckel as the guy who dropped the F-bomb on Sean Hannity's T.V. program.

Actually, according to Google analytics, it's 64 visits from your blog since Monday.
Thanks.

I think I know why there's a discrepancy. Some are thru the 3.5 post linky thing, while most are from the Sperminator post.

Hopefully some will become regular readers!
