I also saw this:

A week from now, my brother Jay, his girlfriend, Maria, and some other friends of mine will be finishing the ING NYC Marathon there. 

[Cillaliz]

Beautiful photos, DR Jose, thanks for sharing them

[JoseSPiano]

I had hoped to eat here:

But since the line was out the door and around the corner...

I decided to just grab a bite to eat closer to home.  -And it didn't look like they had the logistics of the "C-Line" (Cold Line) worked out yet, and no one already in line was willing to let me cut in to see if I could go ahead and get in the C-Line.

[Tomovoz]

Thank you DR Jose.

[JoseSPiano]

And now to see what the Mad Men and Women of Sterling-Cooper are up to tonight...

*I'll watch "Brothers & Sisters" later.

**And for any DR who happens to "Twitter", there's a whole "Mad Men" community tweeting away.  Quite fun.

[JoseSPiano]

You're Welcome, DR Cillaliz.

[JoseSPiano]

You're Welcome, DR Tomovoz.

[Laura]

Thank you for posting the beautiful autumn leaves. Its' always a treat to see what is in other parts of the country.

My arm has recovered from my flu shot.  The big hot welt from yesterday is totally gone and I'm feeling really good. 

DR Jennifer, yesterday you said after you get a flu shot there, they make you wait....I don't understand what you are waiting for, can you explain that? 

[JoseSPiano]

After that, it's back to my novel. I'm reading THE THREE MUSKETEERS in a new translation by Richard Pevear, one-half of the couple who did the wonderful version of ANNA KARENINA about 6 years ago.  It's quite good, but I honestly don't feel it's any better than several contemporary translations I've read. Some of his word choices are strange, but the book is fantastic in almost any translation.

I tried to post the cover, but i keep getting this "upload folder is full." I have no idea how other DRs are posting images.

DR elmore - Which cover/edition do you have?

This one:



Or this one:



*And I'm posting the images using the [img] coding - which works in a similar way to how you post URLs and hyperlinks.  -Just hit reply to see how it's done.  No need to save a copy of the image to your hard drive.

[JoseSPiano]

You're most welcome, DR Laura.

[JoseSPiano]

And here's my favorite overheard comment from my stroll today in Central Park...

10-year old girl to her mother: "It smells like popcorn and horses."

And it did. 

[Laura]

DR Jennifer, yesterday you said after you get a flu shot there, they make you wait....I don't understand what you are waiting for, can you explain that? 

I was told that they ask you to wait because some people get faint after having a shot.

[Laura]

That would make a good quote, Jose.

That makes sense, I guess.

The wind has finally calmed down  I have lots of sticks in the yard and one fairly good sized limb in the front, at least that's what I can see from the windows. I'll check the rest of the yard in the morning

The wind has arrived here in SW Ohio, right on schedule!

[JoseSPiano]

It had Wesley Snipes as Miss Noxema. That's all I remember.

TO WONG FOO THANKS FOR EVERYTHING, written by an acquaintance of mine, Douglas Bean. He was shallow when he "worked" at Drama Book Shop, but i think he got shallower with success.

I think someone needs to get back in touch with his inner Cubby Bernstein.

*Which happens to be another creation of Douglas Carter Beane.

[JoseSPiano]

That would make a good quote, Jose.

I'm thinking about it.

LOL. You sound like my mother.  She told me today that it started right at 3:00 PM just as they predicted.

Well, often about 36 hours after you describe a weather condition you're experiencing, it turns up here.

[Ginny]

Even though we're not leaving for WI until DS Rob finishes classes tomorrow at 2pm, I have some things to do in the morning, so

'night!

[FJL]

Please hold for your Confirmation number.

Congrats to the vixter!

[JoseSPiano]

WOW!!!!!

That was truly one of the best hours (well, 50 minutes) of television I've ever watched.


-The season finale of "Mad Men", that is.

[JoseSPiano]

Sleep Well, DR Ginny, and Safe Travels tomorrow.  ~~~~~~

[bk]

Just watching old TV shows.

Travel Vibes to Ginny & Co

[JoseSPiano]

Congratulations to DR vixter on her Confirmation!

*Did they do the anointing with Holy Oil/Chrism?  I remember when I had my Confirmation, all I wanted to do was to wipe it off my forehead since it started to itch.  -But I wasn't sure if the Bishop would have approved.
