Speaking of eyes, I think this is going to cause accidents, not reduce them.

This doesn't seem like a good idea.  I can easily imagine people getting used to "Pavement Patty" and more accidents happening.

This doesn't seem like a good idea.  I can easily imagine people getting used to "Pavement Patty" and more accidents happening.

Before they get accustomed to it I suspect someone is bound to quickly swerve and crash.  At the least I think it would make me car sick.  Absolutely

der B- With the stuff parents let their kids do in that Coney Island ocean, our sins being thrown in there  should be the least of your worries.

Hmmm...point well taken.

I bet those pesky fish do it too!

Apple got the call and I spent over an hour on the phone - first with a tech guy who simply did all he could to help - he finally got it working, but then I talked to a mail expert and she really fixed everything perfectly - two addresses, my roadrunner addresses, I could never send mail from (I received fine) and she's now fixed that, so that's great.

I also found out we'll be doing a screening of Nudie Musical early next year, the film's 35th anniversary (from the release date) at the New Beverly Cinema.

OK JANE-

How is Wonder Dog Sherlock Doing?

I gathered that you took him to The Dog Doctor Today?

Hope All Is Well...

And A Very Special Happy New Year To You....and Keith...and family and

Sherlock,of course.

Congrats! Should be great fun.

BK, six hours later and you were still dilated?  I think you are supposed to notify your doctor after four hours.  Oh wait, I think that is for an erection.

[TCB]

BK,

Since I don't read the Los Angeles papers any longer:

Who are the cast members for THE GLASS MENAGERIE at the Mark Taper?

I'm not Bruce but I know the answer.

It's the Judith Ivey production that started at Long Wharf in Connecticut then played Off-Broadway as part of Roundabout's season and has now moved to Los Angeles to play at the Mark Taper Forum.

Glass Menagerie

Ben McKenzie as the Gentleman Caller?  Oh well, how bad could he be in that role?

[TCB]

Good Morning!

I'm up, I'm up... And it looks like I've started Page 2!!

Ahh, no.

[TCB]

HAPPY NEW YEAR

TO ALL WHO CELEBRATE

[TCB]

This might sell tickets!

What happened to the cute guy that was sitting in the chair?

[TCB]

PAGE 3 DANCE!!

Is my computer off, or is everybody's count wrong?

[TCB]

Tech stress!  Tech stress!  Actually, NO tech stress--the power went out at around 5 last night and JUST came back on (it's been going on and off intermittently since the middle of the night, never staying on for very long).  I had SO much work to get done on the internets last night and of course that has all fallen by the wayside.  Also, this new house has an alarm system and it went completely haywire earlier this morning.  I was running around trying to get it to stop emitting a horrible screeching sound (NOT the alarm sound--it sounded like a fax tone in minor seconds).  Oy, oy, oy.

Have you seen the pig, yet, who yells at you to "GET OUT OF THE HOUSE!"

[TCB]

I always ask the technicians to put the reading portion as high as possible in my progressive lenses and they're fine for casual reading - newspapers, crossword puzzles, hymnal & prayerbook.  However, for sustained reading I have separate reading glasses and for counted cross-stitch I look below my glasses all together.

And with your new Kindle, Ginny, you can pick whatever size font that you want.

I would speed up.

Is Sherlock Jewish?

[KevinH]

You make me laugh, TCB!

[Cillaliz]

Ok, this is still a work in progress, details need to be done and grout needs to be grouted....but...before

[Cillaliz]

And after step one...

[Cillaliz]

It's really hard to take a good photo of the tile, not sure why.  It is glass, maybe it's just hard to photograph

[TCB]

You make me laugh, TCB!

Thank you, KevinH, I do appreciate an audience.

[elmore3003]

All quiet on the Upstairs Front, no heavy tread, no barking animal, so maybe the Oaf Above Me has gone to Canada for the week. Do gentiles get a New Year wish? My wish is that he stays in Canada.

I am in great discomfort today from my dental clinic visit. I should have asked the dctor for some heavy meds.

[Cillaliz]

Happy New Year to those who celebrate.

[KevinH]

Happy New Year!

[TCB]

And after step one...

Wow!  What a difference.

[TCB]

And one more..............
