Good Evening.  Today began the final push of the last 44 days of school.  They will be over before we know it.  It's been a busy day!

Have a wonderful time, DR Jane!

Thank you.  It was a wonderful day.

Nice!

And now, I'm off.  I'm cat-sitting for my friend Margo, so I need to go to her place and feed her cats, then I'll head home.

Until later.

Had the chicken Caesar, which was great, finished the final set of liner notes, thank heavens, and have watched a motion picture. I'm about to watch another.

Wow. I don't even think of it as being that late in the year. But I guess it is.

I enjoyed Soul. I was surprised. I haven't like the last few Pixar pix I've seen. But there are 10 minutes of credits at the end.

And the very last credit says "Created and Produced at Pixar Animation Studios, Emeryville, California, and in homes at least six feet away from each other throughout the Bay area." So I guess it was filmed partially during the pandemic.

Starting a weepie called Our Friend. I'm sure I won't last the night. It's more than two hours. About a woman dying of cancer and how a friend helps her and her family out. It's based on a true story and got some nice reviews. It also seems to be Casey Affleck's rehab movie after his MeToo moment.

My doctor told me I need to go on a low-oxalate diet to avoid kidney stones. It ain't pretty. Some of my favorite foods are on the forbidden list.

No chocolate.
No tea.
No raspberries.
No spinach.
No rhubarb.
No nuts.

A world of no.

Nice to know after having been served a spinach salad last night with pine nuts (no) and oranges (no) in it.

One of the inspirations for Shostakovich's The No's?

I have been VERY good so far but it sure doesn't feel like I'm on the way to losing weight. They always say you lose a lot the first week - well, I certainly haven't lost a lot, but maybe they mean after your body goes into ketosis. If so, they really shouldn't say the first week.

Like all these no carb things, I cannot imagine a harder diet to do because it's so restrictive, but I'm in for at least a month - if I haven't seen results, back to counting calories.

I do NOT like cabbage so I am not a fan of cole slaw or anything like that......I especially don't even like to look at shredded cabbage encased in Jello.


I have never heard of cabbage in Jell-o.

DR JohnG--to answer your question, I don't have any definite plans but I have three possible trips in mind.  My friends may be driving to Buffalo in the next month or two and asked if I wanted to join them.  I've been invited to stay with one of my friends in Southern California.   Also, Mr. Barrett is performing in Las Vegas on July 11th and I'm thinking of seeing his show. 


Where is Brent performing in Las Vegas?  Is he performing alone, or is it the Broadway Tenors?  Does he still have a home in Las Vegas?

ChasSmith, I can probably help with the mail thing if I understand what it is you're trying to do.

Here's what I was trying to describe:

Let's say I'm on a web page, or reading an email, or maybe some other app, and there's one paragraph I want to print -- just the paragraph, not the whole page or all the pages. So I highlight that paragraph and press Command-P. In Windows, the equivalent print command box includes "Selection" as an option, meaning, just print the highlighted paragraph. There's no such thing on the Apple screen or in menus that I can find. So what I'm looking for is how to print just that paragraph from the Mac.

Don't know if that's totally clear. If not, don't worry about it. In a few days I'll be seeing a friend who's a real Apple guru (not quite a Genius, just a guru), so if this isn't easy to answer, let it go and I'll figure it out then. Thanks!




Can’t you just cut and paste?
