Well, this isn't good...the hard drive that I just bought from Costco last night was a Seagate Backup Plus Ultra Slim 2TB Portable Hard Drive with Rescue Data Recovery Services (https://www.costco.com/Seagate-Backup-Plus-Ultra-Slim-2TB-Portable-Hard-Drive-with-Rescue-Data-Recovery-Services.product.100301412.html).  There are 144 reviews, 66 of which are 5-star, but 60 are 1-star.

According to these reviews, these drives fail quite frequently. :o

DR Jeanne they left a note in our room the first night we questioned the heat issue, along with a box of chocolates,  say I g the problem had been fixed.  That was the night I ended up sleepy g with layers of clothing over my pajamas.   They have apologized profusely that it had not been fixed. 

The box of chocolates is exceptionally delicious.

My easy day at home today has become more difficult.  My goddaughter Charlotte, whom I've not seen in ages, is stopping by around 2:00.  She has never met Annabelle and Thatch.  Before she gets here, I need to tidy up the place and get some work accomplished on the Call Me Madam guitar part.

Today I survived a ferry ride without needing a barf bag. 

We visited a fishing village which didn't resemble any fishing villages we have seen.  The tour guide introduced us to Chinese bread, a sweet bread filled with different ingredients.   Our vegetarian choice was bean.  It was a bit too sweet for us.

We saw the largest sitting Budda in the world and I was almost knocked over by a sacred cow.  We ate at the vegetarian restaurant at a monastery where they served a large variety of delicious dishes.

The tour ended with a half hour cable ride down the mountain much of which was in the heavy fog.  Once we could see it was a lovely view of the bay and the tall buildings of Hong Kong.

I have been thinking about DR TCB's underwear report. It has been my experience that those in the dressing room always have nice small clothes [as they were called in the 1760's].  I myself always have new underwear for every show....and/or break out the colorful superhero or patterned briefs since they will be on display.

Of all those I have met, I believe that actors and other performers enjoy a bit of frivolity in their drawers.

My question for ASK BK DAY:

When are the authors/composers of a play/musical paid when their play/musical is performed by a theatre - when the theatre pays the royalties OR the dates when the show is performed....

[Putnam County Playhouse has paid all royalties for plays to be performed in the summer of 2019]

A young girl who got 900 on her SAT - then 9 months later retook the test and improved by 300 points is outraged that her scores are under review.....it has become a news story with a lot of folks standing behind her....with a "We believe you...." theme, etc.

Their visit was great, and I think there’s hardly anyone I could say the same about after several days! But now we have our normal lives back, so to speak, and life’s little niceties like proper listening, watching, concentrating, etc., can once again be accomplished.

The first half of our royalties were paid already although we haven't seen them yet because they go to Doug's agent in NY, and they have to pay the second half within fifteen days of closing.  But that's not how it usually works.  When and if we license the show, as with the Brain you then get checks twice a year.  Since all the major licensing houses were sold to Concord hopefully things will continue to run smoothly in that regard.

Both of these are interesting. I've always heard from other people I know that they were basically aware of everything, but didn't care. I don't recall anyone saying (or thinking) that they were actually "out" for the procedure. I'll bet they were, though, if only momentarily here and there.

My uncle had some photos of his late doggy on an old tracphone - probably over 15 years old.....

My sister and I attempted to get the photos for him.  I fortunately had a USB cable that fit into the charging outlet.....but my computer would NOT read the phone.

I downloaded the software from LG and a driver....but nothing would work.  Of course the phone is no longer active - since June of 2017....so that may have something to do with it.  Even emailing or messaging ONE photo from the charged phone brings up the message "Not enough memory" to do it.

So we took photos of each of the photos and are working on improving them the best we can.....

The End.

Every time I go to Dollar Tree, I look at the cables they have.  If there is one with a new type of plug or a new size of plug OR a new combination of plugs....I buy it to put it my box of cables.  It is in there that I found the cable that would work.

They even had a cable that had a regular USB plug on one end and a 3.5 mm Male plug on the other.  I have no idea what it might be used for - but if I need it, I've got it, baby!

DR Jeanne they left a note in our room the first night we questioned the heat issue, along with a box of chocolates,  say I g the problem had been fixed.  That was the night I ended up sleepy g with layers of clothing over my pajamas.   They have apologized profusely that it had not been fixed. 

The box of chocolates is exceptionally delicious.

I'm glad they were apologetic and even gave you a little something for your trouble.

Today I survived a ferry ride without needing a barf bag. 

We visited a fishing village which didn't resemble any fishing villages we have seen.  The tour guide introduced us to Chinese bread, a sweet bread filled with different ingredients.   Our vegetarian choice was bean.  It was a bit too sweet for us.

We saw the largest sitting Budda in the world and I was almost knocked over by a sacred cow.  We ate at the vegetarian restaurant at a monastery where they served a large variety of delicious dishes.

The tour ended with a half hour cable ride down the mountain much of which was in the heavy fog.  Once we could see it was a lovely view of the bay and the tall buildings of Hong Kong.

It sounds like a very memorable trip.

Today’s procedure was almost identical to last week’s, except he was more groggy afterwards and had to be given some IV medication to counteract the anesthesia. 


Interesting!  When I had it done, one surgery I was much deeper asleep than the other.  One surgery I remember nothing until it was over; and the other surgery I remember the entire procedure (but still didn't care).

Both of these are interesting. I've always heard from other people I know that they were basically aware of everything, but didn't care. I don't recall anyone saying (or thinking) that they were actually "out" for the procedure. I'll bet they were, though, if only momentarily here and there.

I was told I'd be given "twilight anesthesia," in which I'd be aware of what was going on but feel no pain. Actually, for both of my surgeries I was completely out. I heard nothing and felt nothing, It varies from one person to another and from one procedure to another.

I have been thinking about DR TCB's underwear report. It has been my experience that those in the dressing room always have nice small clothes [as they were called in the 1760's].  I myself always have new underwear for every show....and/or break out the colorful superhero or patterned briefs since they will be on display.

Of all those I have met, I believe that actors and other performers enjoy a bit of frivolity in their drawers.

I thought of the post when the person sitting across from me stood u and bent over to do something. That is when I noticed his underwear with yellow rubber duckies  all over it ;D

Stanley Market was a nice area to shop.  Keith found a polo shirt with a dragon on it and I purchased an inexpensive scarf.

Since we arrived we have been seeing these unusual looking soft waffle cones filled with custard or ice cream.  We tried just the egg waffle without the ice cream and it was yummy.

After the market we drove up to Victoria Peak, enjoyed the hazy views for awhile, walked around and then took the tram down.  The tram down rides backwards.  Fortunately Keith had positioned us well and we were able to grab the last seat, meaning I could turn sideways and face the front.  It was an interesting tram, making several stops on the way down, and moving like a very slow roller coaster.

Because of our fairly steep decent the tall buildings we passed all looked slanted.
