I had a tiny tv like that, Dan The Man. I used it when I was desperate for Monday Night Football. I threw it in the trash, as I knew it would be useless now.

Do ya all think it would be a too crabby old guy-ish thing for me to write to my congressman and demand that he propose a permanent delay on the switch to digital?


YES, you Luddite!

Desperate?  For Monday Night Football?  You?  Were desperate?  For Monday Night Football?

I could have sworn "someone" here commented that Lane-Lerner hadn't written every song in the "On A Clear Day..." score.  For some reason, "On the SS Bernard Cohen" springs to mind.

But...given all things that happen to one past the age of 50, I may be transferring "Motherhood" from "Hello, Dolly!"

It was several years ago -- one of the times we had purposely broken the tv to break the kids' habit of not doing homework because the tv was on.

I just read on All That Chat that Faith Prince will be playing Ursula in THE LITTLE MERMAID on Broadway beginning in April.

I believe DR Jose and I discussed that last Friday.

On All That Chat?  ;)

"Pudding" was used in the old days generically, to mean "dessert," as in "We had tapioca for pudding!"

I think they still do today, in the UK.

Have any other DRs noticed a sudden surge in spam in their spam-email boxes over the past two days?  -Just wondrin'.


I asked that same question a week or so ago, and never got any answers.

You are most welcome!  I picked mine up today.
Then I opened my Itunes and made a playlist based on the book and burned it onto a cd.

We got 2/3 of the way through last night's The Closer before the DH had to leave for a meeting at church, but so far I am really loving it.  And I hope Amy Sedaris gets an Emmy nod.

Finally back from a long day with Grant.  Got all the tracks recorded save for two, one of which I'll use from the previous demo and one of which I'll use from the soundtrack.  But we did twenty tracks today.  Whew!  Tonight I'll be dealing with the shocking revelations and I shall try to be calm as I do so - the bottom line is another person bites the dust because of stupidity.  I really thought I'd never have to go through this again after Miss Minoff, but, oh, well.

Just realized that I will be a victim of the switch to digital TV.  I have a small, small battery operated portable TV that I've been using to occaisionally watch baseball games, the late news or Letterman in the backyard on summer nights.  The screen is only 3" but it's enough to follow radio-on-the-tv type of events.  Unless they make a battery operated converter box, the thing will be useless to me.

Do ya all think it would be a too crabby old guy-ish thing for me to write to my congressman and demand that he propose a permanent delay on the switch to digital?

They did the switch here today.  I haven't heard any  complaints yet
