I'd like to announce that I just saw an ad for Simon and Garfunkel - "Old
Friends" in concert on December 14th her in DC. Um, anyone else know about
that?

They will be playing The Palace in Auburn Hills later this month; WEMU was
giving away tickets yesterday. (They said the show is sold out.)
Yes, they've gotten back together.

Two shows at the Palace, Oct 18 and 19. Both sold out within a couple of
hours of opening sales. Tickets went for $55.95-125.00.
They are saying that this is absolutely the last time.

hello...new to grex. i have an account here, and one at sdf.lonestar.org too.
just wanted to say that grex and sdf have become my two new favorite charities
-- nonprofit UNIX groups offer the rare opportunity to be a misanthropic
philanthropist (philanthropistic misanthrope?) anyway.

Cool site, Matt. Welcome to Grex. I'd offer you the standard greeting
("It Gets Easier(TM)"), but I suspect you're not finding it at all
challenging already.

I need a place to stay this week around AA/Ypsi,
hopefully close to UM Hospitals, Kellogg Eye,
St. Joe's, and WCC. I'm paying hotel rates
and I'm sure someone can underbid them.
I need tobacco-smoke free.

My apartment is currently not in use and is walking distance (1-2 miles) from
U of M and we have a bike you could use. What days do you need housing?
The apartment is only for heavy sleepers - bedroom below a kitchen which is
in use until midnight and starting at 6 am. You can use the kitchen but we
have turned off the refrigerator. The bathroom is in the basement and you
need to preheat it in advance before showering (electric space heater).
Also easy biking distance to Kellogg and there is a bus to St. Joes and WCC.
Phone 662-1520 for more information Monday 11-12 am or evening around 8-11
or any time after that.
Jaklumen and Julie have stayed there before.
Nobody has smoked in my apartment since 1987.
What are you in town for?

Jor had a live-in job that ended just about the time he developed eye problems
and he was staying in a hotel temporarily. Surgery Friday and he may stay
at Jim's for a few days so we can look after him until he recovers. Right
now they are out checking spark plugs in jor's 1987 car (same age as Jim's
but automatic transmission). Very nice and very helpful guy. Then we will
show him my apartment for longer term use until both of us feel better. He
can handle the stairs down to the bathroom there, I cannot easily yet.

Sindi and Jim are being very nice.
I am of course being total pain in the ass.
Jim is a gourmet cook.
Jim is working on my car, which has been
working very dependably. I am now a pedestrian.
/unpacks walking shoes
I tried to warn him that it's dangerous
working on a rickety old car, better to
leave well enough alone . .

The car started today without doing anything different to it and the library
did not have the service manual for that model. Jim is a vegan cook. He asked
me what spices to add to the lentil stew. Jor (john) ended up at Jim's house
instead of my apartment and is being a perfect guest and unbelievably quiet.
Today they might put Win98 on the computer Jim found at the curb.
My apartment will need a few days of my time (next week when I am feeling
better) before anyone can get around in there with or without vision. Jim
was sort of camping in there for a month while taking care of me and he claims
he does not know where to put anything away in the kitchen (despite having
taken it out in the first place). I already removed the frying pan from a
chair and pie plate from the burner and he took the computer off the table
to bring here so we are making progress. But jor is better off staying here
until he recovers from surgery and why move back and forth. Jim seems happy
at the prospect of running a mini-recovery center and we can take care of each
other here. It was getting sort of boring before.
Any further car repairs will have to wait until the man-eating ladybugs get
cold and go into hibernation.

I noticed today that the new span of the Broadway Bridges has been opened
to traffic, and the remaining old one is being demolished.
