On ABC Nightly News just now they announced that Swift Butterball will be donating 20,000 lbs. to the nations food banks this Thanksgiving.  20,000 lbs.?  Isn't that a pretty small donation?

I'm up and on the phone with Apple - trying to figure out why the Time Capsule is blinking amber when it should be green - it's working fine, which means it's probably time for an update but I can't find it in system preferences to do the update.  So, I'm waiting for the Time Capsule expert.

The Time Capsule?  Perhaps you should call Mr. Peabody?

I've already gotten a tidal wave of angry emails (OK, just two) saying my SMILE parody on YouTube is unfair to Carrie Ann.  i should just be so lucky that it upset people enough that the video might go viral - LOL! 

But really, it just seemed like something silly and worth laughing and parodying about, that Carrie Ann berated Maks for SMILING! 

So here's a "Smile parody" about Maks vs Carrie Ann on Dancing with the Stars - all in fun, really!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ves12pka4I


I thought it was great.  Would you prefer an angry letter?


Thanks so much, TCB!!

And I still can't believe I got "pulled over" for jaywalking last night. Thankfully, I think my "I'm from New York City" excuse(?) worked. ::)

Was the cop cute?

Yahoo has an interesting story on the worst covers of Life magazine, which includes a photo of Kaye Ballard in "The Golden Apple",


http://news.yahoo.com/photos/life-s-20-worst-covers-1321377938-slideshow/

One of the covers mentions a Rodgers & Hammerstein Christmas song, which Peter Filichia says was a stand-alone piece called "Merry Christmas, Little Friend." Does anybody know the song or know of a recording? 

It's called Happy Christmas, Little Friend. It seems to be available as sheet music on line but I can't find a recording. Rosemary Clooney sang it on a Christmas album and there are many references all over the Web when you look for Happy, not Merry.

Happy Christmas, Little Friend

Not to be confused with Happy Christmas, Little Lamb

Or the edible version: Happy Christmas, Little Lamb Chop (Ho-ho-hold the Jolly Mint Jelly)

Be careful, Jane will get you for that one!

DRs Jose and Jane - thanks for asking about my Mom.  Her doctor found no reason to suspect anything more serious than a chest cold, so he's called for an antibiotic that I'll go pick up and deliver to her.  When I called about an hour ago, the pharmacy had not yet heard from the doctor's office, so I'll check again pretty soon.  It's too far away to just head out before I know the order is ready.


That is a relief!

Be careful - breaking the law in California can lead to serious consequences.   :P

Pedestrians will cross at any point in the road here. Crosswalks are only a suggestion, it seems. They will also stand in the middle of the street.

Between the Luhrs central parking lot and the East Court Building we used to regularly cross right where there was a big sign saying "This is not a cross walk. Do not cross here".   Everyone did it

I got ticketed for jaywalking once in Cincinnati. I thought it was a joke and never paid the ticket. Forgot about it. Three years later, I got stopped for speeding and they hauled me in for the unpaid jaywalking ticket. I was in for an hour or two until friends with my ATM card got me out.

So, I did the crime and I did the time. 

Ewwwwww, a jailbird!

The great thing about PARKS & REC being such a boring show is that I have 30 minutes on the computer waiting for THE OFFICE to come on.

DWTS - I was shocked at Hope's attitude and even though I'm not a big Maks fan, when she was being so snippy and rude, I really was hoping she was out of there.   I think the judges were a bit too much this season, but you have to believe some of it is orchestrated.  It's got people talking about the show and people were tuning in to see what happened next. 

I am happy with the final 3 and home JR wins it all

The first meat I gave up was lamb even though it was by far my favorite.  They are just soooo darn cute.  Bacon was the other first meat just because it is so darn bad for you.

This is why I insisted we pay the parking ticket in L.A. that we didn't deserve since we weren't parked there.  I would have been fine not paying if it wasn't a state we spend so much time driving in.

I WISH they would cite jaywalkers here in Phoenix. I'm surprised more pedestrians aren't killed.


Ever since they changed the law in Washington making it a crime not to stop for a pedestrian, people assume that they can jaywalk as well.  It really angers me.

Sometimes you can't stop in time for a pedestrian.

I remember there was a crackdown on jaywalking in DC many years ago.  My coworkers had tales to tell about what happened when they went out for lunch.
