This is a sad edition of the UML series. My very own UML vehicle is ailing and I'm too broke to really give it the kind of repair work it deserves. So for the time being, my Fabulous Olds will be limited to short runs within the municipality of my small village. It goes through sort of a chugging motion when I stop at lights with the brakes on. Once I put it in park (it's an automatic) it seems OK. One passenger commented that the chug-chug motion was good for massaging sore muscles in the back, so perhaps I have an economic opportunity here in providing a mobile back massage unit.

Anyway, here are the UMLs I have spotted since UML1 and UML2. I believe I have a combined listing of about 6 or 7 percent of all UMLs. This chart only displays those UMLs I saw during this round-- 032, 049, 065, 070, 086, 152, 256, 261, 295, 303, 321, 343, 383, 428, 429, 482, 608, 639, 703, 708, 816, 880, 926, 966, 967, 974, 976.

The Dedication

The relationship between you and that vehicle is mysterious and entertaining, and while beautiful in a way, it is also disturbing [to me]. But I think I can relate to how you feel about your machine. You have a relationship with it, and it will be hard for you to say goodbye...to let go.

Impressive dedication to vehicle though.

That's the second

Monty Python reference today.
»

Hmm

Hopefully this does not exceed the daily limit of Python references. If so, I guess the docents need to discipline me.

Which Python gag best

Which Python gag best represents Olyblog? I think it's a cross between the Medieval Torture Dungeon themed restaurant where the waiter offers to start us out with a conversation, or else gathering the Founding Fathers of Communism together and asking them football questions.

If it's neither then it must be full frontal Graham Chapman.

It's a fair call, but Society's to blame. ~ Right! We'll be charging them too!

You KNOW this is becoming a boys' club...

...when the guys start counting the Monty Python references.

Hey...

my first girlfriend had every episode memorized.

Episode?

I thought it was a movie. And you definitely have to provide more details before I believe you.

He's not the Messiah, he's a naughty boy!

It's like Star Trek, they went from tv to movies.

It all begain as the BBC sketch comedy series

Monty Python's Flying Circus. The girlfriend of whom I speak was particularly fond of "The Cycling Tour of North Cornwall,” “the Spanish Inquisition,” and “The Ministry of Silly Walks” sketches.

I want Olyblog to be a girls

I want Olyblog to be a girls club too. It's what I want, what I really really want.

It's a fair call, but Society's to blame. ~ Right! We'll be charging them too!

Yikes....

... do you have to be as skinny as Victoria Beckham to join? What I really really want is a hearty breakfast.
»

Yikes Squared

I weigh 185 and have a belly that I didn't have a few years ago. Damned metabolism giving out and not playing ball anymore. (Or maybe it's me not playing ball but sitting around at a computer instead.)

Far be it from me to deny someone breakfast.

It's a fair call, but Society's to blame. ~ Right! We'll be charging them too!

OlyBlog already is a grrl club........

....and we allow the rest of you to tag along. Plus we own the spacious tree house that has a view of the FLOD. (Ever noticed that FLOD sounds the same as "flawed"?)

Tree House? No fair! What do

Tree House? No fair! What do I have to do to be a girl, cry during Steel Magnolias?

It's a fair call, but Society's to blame. ~ Right! We'll be charging them too!

Chocolate

Bring us really really good chocolate, and you're in.

Dang, I finished eating all

Dang, I finished eating all the Ghiradelli from when I was in San Fran back in April.

It's a fair call, but Society's to blame. ~ Right! We'll be charging them too!
