  Cleaning Out the Garage

"We" but mostly he is cleaning out the garage today. For one thing he had to make a spot for the metal shelves I got at Sunday's auction for $4. Once he got started he has kept going, opening boxes from when we moved here in 2005 and a few that have gotten added on since. There are ocean waves of empty boxes that we can't bear to part with because someday we will sell our house in Las Vegas and think we'll need the boxes. To a degree I moved stuff out there that I could walk away from, but there is probably still a large number of things that I will want to move back here to Colorado.

I need to get the camera and take photos of various things so I guess I'll go do that.

Here is something from today's Las Vegas paper - interesting names for the kids.

"Wedding upsets Daddy Geldof Irish rocker Sir Bob Geldof is reportedly furious over the surprise wedding of his 19-year-old daughter in Las Vegas.

Peaches Geldof, who has been making headlines for years for what a London newspaper called "her penchant for skinny rockers in tight trousers," was to face the music during a weekend meeting with her father.

The teen wild child/socialite ran off to Las Vegas and married American musician Max Drummey, 23, of the group Chester French on Aug. 5 after a whirlwind romance.

They were married in the Little White Chapel, where Britney Spears shocked the world with her 55-hour marriage to childhood friend Jason Alexander.

Bob Geldof, who was knighted at age 34 for his charity work, including organizing Live Aid and Live 8, was also married in Las Vegas.

Geldof, who reached music stardom with the Boomtown Rats, married Paula Yates on Aug. 31, 1986, after a 10-year relationship. Simon LeBon of Duran Duran was Geldof's best man.

They had three daughters: Fifi Trixibelle, now 25; Peaches Honeyblossom Michelle Charlotte Angel Vanessa; and Pixie, 17.

Yates, a TV personality, left Geldof in 1995 for INXS singer Michael Hutchence after interviewing him in her "Big Breakfast Boudoir" TV show.

Two years later, Hutchence was found hanged in a hotel room in Sydney. Yates struggled with his death and was found dead at her home in London in 2000, at age 41, of an accidental heroin overdose."

It is such a tragic story. But those names for those kids, goodness.

Anyone who saddles kids with names like that deserves whatever they do to him when they grow up...

It makes Forrest Woods sound tame by comparison.
