Well not much happening at HHW yet this morning. Everyone must be LOOPED!

Well, I did have some champagne last night, but that's a tale for another time.
And a tale that probably does not telling.
Mainly because there is nothing to tell.
DR JOSE, I would suggest you fly INSIDE the cabin.
DR Ginny - I shall email you tonight regarding meeting up in Lexington, KY, tomorrow night....
I watch DWTS to see the choreography - it really is an accomplishment for those non-dancers to learn a routine or TWO in seven days, especially since many of them have many other commitments.
DR JEANNE--Betsy uses a rice cooker/steamer all the time and loves it. She also uses it regularly to steam veggies. Even I know how to use it, so that should allay any fears that it's at all difficult. ;)
DR Laura, re: Kate Gosselin on DANCING WITH THE STARS.
Apparently she and Tony will be rehearsing where she lives (is it PA somewhere?). I would guess that most/all of her kids would be in school. So that would leave her free during the day. She is going to also rehearse in her basement after they go to bed.
Here is a story that is sure to upset some.
They are probably going to cut USPS down to five days a week. We only have mail here monday to friday. I don't know anything different as that is what i am used to. It sucks when you are waiting for something. BUt you get used to it.

TOD:
I love WITNESS FOR THE PROSECUTION, PRESUMED INNOCENT, JAGGED EDGE, A TIME TO KILL, THE VERDICT, A FEW GOOD MEN.
I also like THE PARADINE CASE though I realize I'm in the minority about that.
And the word of the day is: PABLUM!
Did anybody watch LAW & ORDER last night?
I thought it was quite good, particularly the first episode.
For the first time in a while there is a lot of new stuff on tv tonight. Is anybody else gonna sample the new NBC show with Lauren Graham called PARENTHOOD. I love her so I am definitely gonna watch (even though it's on the same time as THE GOOD WIFE).
More from Botswana. A lilac-breasted roller. In flight, its colors really shimmer in the sun.

I guess celebrities such as Kate Gosselin don't do laundry when the children are asleep or at school.

We have it set to record. I'll be surprised if we stick with it.

Yes, DRUXY, I watched L&O last night and liked it, other than the missing beard on Jeremy Sisto. He just looks weird without it. Do you know who played the killer's mother? She looked so familiar, but IMDb doesn't have complete episode cast lists up yet.

How do you know before you've seen it?
I really don't know what to expect. But i do love Lauren Graham. So hopefully it will be good.
And don't forget a new GOOD WIFE tonight at the same time.
Good morning, all! This has been another morning with unhappy news and I am feeling rather depressed over the whole nonsense. I got an email this morning from the realtor in Ohio about his version of the phone call with my brother Randy, and he did indeed lie to me about the realtor's phone call. I'm very saddened by the news so I wrote Randy, and copied it to his wife who wants to sell the property as much as I do.
So, I'm mourning dead and missing friends, a resignation, sibling angst, and other failures and very unhappy over all of it. Tonight, I'm seeing Rebecca Luker in concert and some friends and colleagues, and I'm hoping that cheers me up. I have to head downtown shortly: I've got to pay my accountant and sign my tax returns, deal with an inquiry to my HMO, and do some edits with Skip Kennon at Toyland. I can only hope my spirits pick up.
My sister Molly is in the top five of a caption contest.
This is the link.....the second cartoon.....her caption is:
I told you not to smoke when you were pregnant.
If you would like to vote for her.

TOD - I'm hoping against hope that I don't have real-life experience with courtroom drama next week or the next. I'm on call for jury duty in our county's Court of Common Pleas, which means I have to call or check online starting this Friday to find out if I have to report the following business day. I got out of this a few years ago because my work schedule was packed for the 2 weeks they wanted me, but this time I don't have a good excuse - unless my doctor tells me tomorrow that he can get me a medical waiver.

We're looking forward to it, DR Jose! As you're scoping out places for dinner, remember we'll have a car...

Well reportedly you get around $200K just for agreeing to do the show (more if you last longer). So maybe she can hire someone to do her laundry.
DR George - Congrats on your Grand Cleaning!!! -And Congrats to your Mom too. ;)
Peaceful ending vibes for Bob, DH of DR elmore!!

Ginny, I am surprised at you! I think jury duty is not only an obligation, but an honor as well.
Ginny, I would think you can get a medical release from jury duty.
John G., do you have a camera with a foot-long lens? Were these critters in a zoo?

I saw that Craig T. Nelson was in it, so I set it to record. I'm not familiar with Graham. I've seen a few more previews for the show & wasn't keen on the plot. The show looks like it might be very good, just not of interest. Of course I don't really know until I watch.
Thanks, I will double check "Wife" is set to record. We can record 2 shows at the same time.

Or maybe she can hire someone to parent her children!
DR Ginny, depending on the case, you may actually enjoy it. Many cases are short - usually 2-3 days. If you get one of those it's interesting. If you get stuck on a lenghty case...well I can see that it may be a real pain

Ah I've seen Lauren Graham in a bunch of movies. But she is most well known for her role as Lorelai in the GILMORE GIRLS.
I can also record 2 shows at once.
Thanks for the words of jury duty encouragement, DRs Laura and Cillaliz.

Ginny, I would think you can get a medical release from jury duty.
Yeah, but I'd hate to let DR TCB down! Actually, my doctor, a former school board member, will probably tell me to do it.

Last night I took my final dosage of sulpha drugs. Since they didn't seem to work nearly as well this time around; I am fully expecting the MRSA to be back in about three to four weeks.

I am sure that all of us have higher (and in some cases lower) opinions of our friends here at HHW. These are locked in our minds until we actually meet face to face. Still, unless you arrived at my door with a martini in one hand and a fifty cent cigar (burning) in the other; I don't imagine my image of you would be tarnished.

Actually, it would be kind of fun to see.
Last November 30, my sister (and co-worker) retired from the State. In the middle of January, they finally got around to posting for her position. In the beginning of Februay, they finally scheduled interviews for the candidates; and yesterday my supervisor was finally ready to call and offer the job to his choice.
Guess What? There is now a hiring freeze on all state jpbs until, at least, July!
Peaceful ending vibes for Bob, DH of DR elmore!!
I am not focusing very well today, Jane, what does the DH stand for?
I am back from Rebecca's wonderful concert. I went with Zachary Stains, the naked Hercules, Billy Hicks, who was the secret behind a lot of John McGlinn's success, John Vogel, the McGlinn executor, and Michelle Churchill.
We had dinner at Rosa Mexicano, where the food was fantastic and the service a complete dud. On my way to the reception I ran into Skip Kennon, whom I adore and who introduced me to Steve Marzullo, who had two songs on the program. At the reception I talked to George Dvorsky, Danny Burstein, Howard McGillin, the fantastic Joseph Thalken, and a few others, and I got snubbed - again - by Judy Kuhn (third or fourth time now), who's never acknowleged I did anything for her "Just In Time" album, and clearly does not remember I was around for her tantrums. Where's her second recording, I ask you?

Thanks to JMK, Jane, and Jose for the feedback re: rice cookers. It never occurred to me to look for one in an Asian store; I usually shop from Amazon. I am encouraged by the positive feedback and will pursue this.
While I ate lunch I watched last night's DAMAGES. Oh, my, so many secrets and so much sneaking around. It's such a good show.
I also found on my cell phone an email from the friend at the Library of Congress who called me last Saturday to tell me we were no longer friends. From the sound of the message, which has to be from either today or yesterday, I guess he clearly has no intentions of accepting apologies.
