Hi all.

Well, I think I have most of the photos I want to put on the CD named and in folders so they will be easy to find. I still have some extras I want to add to the CD before I send it out so it may not happen until about Saturday. I'll be puting some of the pictures you all posted on it, it the same folders where they belong. Also some photos from my other trips to NYC.

If anyone has anything they would like to add, please e-mail it along to me. Does someone have the Walking Tour Mapped out? Can you scan it and send it me?

Oh, another question, do you just want a CD that you can access the folders or do you want a self running CD that shows the photos on the screen for X number of seconds before it moves the next? Jane, you should know about that kind of CD.

I also sent some to PhotoBucket for your viewing pleasure:

Click the NYC album.

Once again, if I don't have your address, I can't send you a CD. If you don't want one and I do have your address, let me know as well. If you were not in NYC and want a CD, let me know as well.

I think that covers most everything.

I think I went through about 500 photos. No, I didn't put all of them in the folders. Some were just to bad and I'm very mad about some of the shots I missed.

Like the one where Jane is pointing to sign that says Jane. I'm so darn short, all I got was her pointing up. Sigh.

The LCD screen on my camera is so small, I can't always tell that I pictures doesn't look right because it seems fine on the small screen. My new camera (which shall be my Christmas Gift to myself) WILL have a much bigger screen but will be much smaller to carry around.

Speaking of tunes you can't get out of your head, ever since it was mentioned yesterday, I haven't been able to get Bobby Sherman's "Julie, Julie, Julie do you love me" out of my head.

Had another one of those middle-age moments where I totally misunderstood what was being said. Been having more and more of those lately.

This time, I was on the phone with the IRS and I could have sworn the recording said "Please do not hang up. Hanging up now and dialing again will increase your weight."

Of course, when I thought about it, they were saying "will increase your wait" but it was a strange choice of wording on their part, I thought.

Well...

No kneeling. No catty-wampus piano stool either. I've never had this pain before. However, pinched nerve is what I'm thinking...

Steve has a very firm mattress, and I have a feeling that it was a combination of that firmness, the position of my body, the position of my knee, etc., that contributed to my current state of discomfort.

The knee itself is not really sore - it's the area right above it - right where my quads connect to my knee cap. Also a little bit below my kneecap. Nothing looks swollen - and I've had a few people look.

I'm trying my best to keep it elevated, but it actually hurts when it's elevated - as opposed to not being elevated. We shall see...

You know this whole post is just fraught with potential for TCB.

Nice NY Photobucket pics Danise! You took a lot of photos of me taking photos of you! LOL! (and vice versa, I guess!).

You know the one time I tried to upload photos to Photobucket I was forced to make the pics so small that they looked horrible...but yourse look splendid!

I must have done something wrong.

Danise · « **Reply #188 on:** October 26, 2005, 03:54:19 PM »

I'm so glad it worked!

I just uploaded them. I guess they either met the size requirement or they resized them. It said on the site that's what they would do if they were to big.

Perhaps, as a precaution, you should wear kneepads while you're sleeping in that bed.....

Has anyone already mentioned that LESTAT in New York was put on sale today for people with AmEx cards? Great seats with the Gold Card option, OK seats with regular AmEx. (If it's already been mentioned, sorry for repeating.)

That's at ticketmaster.com, by the way, and serach for LESTAT

Testing, testing, testing (my photobucket).

Oh, hey that worked...I can start selling on ebay again!

(I know none of this makes sense)

Danise, photobucket resized the picture on their own and it turned out fine....and I figured out how to post it without uploading it to HHW...which I guess I already knew how to do.

My boss and her sister are going to be in New York City Saturday and Sunday awaiting a flight to India on Monday night.

Does anyone have a clue whether it is possible to get "reasonable" prices to any shows, like "Wicked"?

DRRonPulliam, I can't give a solid answer to that, but I would advise them to hit the TKTS booth at 48th and Broadway to see what's up. Most shows are, and they might get tickets to something else. We're not in a major tourist season now, and I'm sure they will find something appealing at a reasonable rate.

That's great to know. I've passed that info along. Thank you.

Glad you all liked the photos. I'm poping back and forth because I'm looking for photos posted here that I downloaded when I spotted them to add to the disk. Gee, it might have to be a 2 disk set!

Make sure to wear your Pope Hat.

Did anyone answer my Terry Trotter question?

I believe my eBay nemesis is mightily rattled. This is so childish, but it just makes me laugh, laugh, laugh.

Do you eBayers know that PayPal will evidently no longer let you specify cash-only transactions through PayPal (i.e., you can no longer refuse to accept credit cards). Guess I won't be offering PayPal on my auctions anymore.

Terry T. has two sons, so it might be one of them.

As long as everyone is asking about the nephew, I'll ask about the niece. How old? And why hasn't she called me?

BK, it's the other way around if it's anything--this was the 1966 special "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown" that had an arranging credit for a John Stuart Trotter. I'm wondering if Terry is his son.
