MattH, we watched several episodes of Burn Notice and The Closer. I enjoyed them. I never did see Edisaurus's name in the credits, though. There must be lots of editors.

I may be mistaken, but I think she only edits the promos for the episodes, not the actual episodes themselves. I'm sure she'll correct me if I'm mistaken.

I just read something that annoys me.

Pushing Daisies was cancelled. But they were supposed to air the remaining episodes.

Apparently they were supposed to show a new episode tonight, but it got pulled. And they don't know if/when they will air the remaining shows.

It is bad enough that ABC was so stupid and cancelled realy good shows (Eli Stone, Pushing Daisies). But now they might not even show the episodes they've got?

The last I read about this, ABC had decided to air the remaining episodes this summer, but that was a decision that's subject to change.

I'm going to head down now to clean the den (didn't get it this morning before coming upstairs for my workout), check the mail, and then start of lunch preparation.

Distilled water will keep your steam appliance from clogging up with mineral deposits.

And boiling the water won't remove the minerals.

Will using bottled water be okay?

Laura · « **Reply #67 on:** January 07, 2009, 08:30:34 AM »

Not bottled drinking water. That has minerals added for taste.

Bottled distilled water. You can find it in your grocery store.

On today's Ask Ausiello somebody asked if they were going to air the episodes this summer. And he wrote that as of now the guy who does Pushing Daisies had no idea about that. And Ausiello implied that wasn't necessarily the plan anymore.

I'd be surprised if they didn't air them. But why wait until summer? Then nobody will even remember the show.

I'm just confused why they said to use regular bottled water for my hand steamer.

Thanks.

Laura · « **Reply #70 on:** January 07, 2009, 08:41:29 AM »

I don't know. Maybe they meant regular bottled distilled. Maybe different terminology is used in the US and Canada.

Sandra (Drawing): Could you stand there with your arms crossed so I can draw you?
Me: Ok.
Sandra (Still drawing): Ok. Now can you stand there and look emaciated, like a stick figure?
Me: Um, no.

Oh I how love your family!!!

Wednesday morning greetings! I slept poorly last night, resulting in a slow start to my day. It's a little snowy here in SW Ohio - the perfect conditions for staying home and taking down Christmas decorations.

tuna glop??

***VIBES, VIBES, & MORE VIBES*** for DR Ron Pulliam!!!

It only looks like Tuna Glop.

Or, sometimes, it looks like one of those lime Jell-o/cream cheese mold thingies.

Jennifer you will be able to find gallon sized bottles of distilled water in the cleaning aisle oy your supermarket and tehy should be very cheap.

If you are not able to go out today and just want tot ry the mop one time I am sure one run with regular tap water will not destroy the mop - they are talking about mineral buildup over a period of time.

BTW which mop do you have? I have been very tempted by the "Shark" since I have a lot of hard wood floors and tile floors, but the $69 + price tag keeps me from buying it... if it's the best thing since sliced bread please let me know

Dear Confused: If you have or get one of those water filtration devices, such as the Brita Water system, you can use that easily enough. The water gets demineralized decently (although not entirely) and it should work in both your steamers. Plus, you don't have to keep buying bottles of water.

I have a Brita water pitcher which I use constantly. I never used tap water for my cat's drinking water and I've used the Brita water for my iron and my Scünci steamer for years without any mineral buildup.

I think I am finally at the end of the yearly dig-down to get things organized.

Torrential rains forecasted for today--they're expecting at least 3 inches of rain and lots of landslides. Oy.

I have things to do today, including assembling a bass book for an upcoming industrial gig I'm doing, preparing for the start of the new Pops session tomorrow, and also making varied and sundried PRODUCERS phone calls as that long slog begins (the show doesn't even open until July and we're already in pre-production, can you believe it?).

1. I hope none of your land slides.

2. Is that book you're preparing on the wide-mouthed bass variety?

One good thing I hadn't noticed until last night:

My sense of taste is returning.

One bad thing I hadn't noticed until last night:

One should not have a sense of "taste" when one is de-glopping.

Yuck.
