Thank you, all. He has been around here for so long. It will be strange without him in the backyard.

JRand, I envy you the Dark Shadows movies. Sounds like fun viewing.

This is certainly not to make light of the troubles of our East Coast HHW'ers....but I have to say that the path of destruction of Hurricane Sandy has reached the inland area here in my backyard.




That gave me quite a big laugh this morning!

Mike it isn't nice to laugh at other's tragedy.

Here's the NY TIMES update on where NYC currently stands:
http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2012/10/30/nyregion/storm-service-updates.html

I always hated driving thru the Holland Tunnel.  I enjoyed the Lincoln Tunnerl, but not the Holland.  I have no idea what made the difference, except maybe I used the Lincoln Tunnel more often.

RIP Tabby Tom, the feral cat who lived in my backyard since 1999.


I am so very sorry, Laura.  My thoughts are with you.

There is not enough room to make a U-turn inside the Holland Tunnel.

Hey everybody.  Back from school already.  Many great costumes this year.  The 8th grade knew who I was (Jesus from Godspell) right away as they watched the movie with me last year.  Others asked, and I just said "Jesus", and they kinda stopped asking after that!!!  I'll show them a clip of the movie on Friday.

Sorry about your cat, DR Laura.  It's great that you are able to care for strays like that.

Vibes to the East Coasters and glad to see that they are doing well. 

The rest of the day will be spent watching "Weeds" and hanging with the pups.

Posting from laptop (yay!!) -- but still from Panera Bread.  The tree/wire mess down the road that's causing our outage is finally being worked on, at least, but I don't think it'll be up till tomorrow based on what I've heard about all the things that went wrong when two huge trees within two blocks went down.

Sad about the feral cat, DR Laura. Boy, he sure did live a long life...and, evidently, on his own terms!

Been thinking about all the East Coast HHWers. Hope all are safe and sound -- and that those without power are back on the grid soon. I know I'm most E and T but still value all you HHWers and certainly was thinking about those in Sandy's path. Be safe!

BK, you seem more of a Mama Rose than a Gypsy Rose.  Just sayin'.

I think it's only polite to withhold judgment till we've seen him in costume.

Gotta scram and get to the theatre -- cleaning up after Ghost Talk (sell out crowds and rave reviews so that is always exciting).

I just got an e-mail with the subject line, "Wake Up & Save On Your Favorite Light Roasts!"  I finally figured out that it was talking about coffee.  I was trying to figure out how you managed to have light roast beef.

Sorry that I missed Miss Karen.  Missed Miss?  Is that a double negative?

When I got up at seven this morning, it was so warm in the apartment that I thought I had left the heat on by mistake.

I somehow missed out reading who the repsonsible Party was for Sandy.

Don't worry, Oliver Stone said it was the fault of those who don't believe in climate change.

Back from a lovelier than lovely lunch with Becky at our favorite Panera.  On the way home I bought some more treats to hand out tonight because our basket looked a little skimpy.  It's cold and rainy, so I don't expect too many kids.  It's about time to turn on the porch light.
