Back from an omelet and a bagel, doing some banking, paying way too many Kritzerland bills (if we didn't have so many damn bills, Follies would have given us the Kritzerland cushion we've always wanted and needed - perhaps the next few releases will help do that now that Follies has enabled us to at least catch up). My amazon package wasn't there, of course, and I just don't feel like going back there. The helper is coming to get stuff at three.

And I am back from Toyland! It was a long, but very profitable day. Curtis came in and together we accomplished a lot. He set up McGlinn's computer and the sound system, and together we moved filing cabinets, furniture and tossed a lot of trash, Arnold, our cleaning man, will drop dead when he comes in and sees all the work he's got to clean out. While Curtis set up the computer and sound, I unpacked and shelved abpout 10 cartons of music and books.

Tomorrow, I'm doing nothing.

Thursday, I'll go back in and continue.

elmore, I know what you mean about e-mails, and I'm just going to not pay attention to that stuff anymore.

I'm happy to help in any way I can, but my paranoid side says there's someone out to get both you and me!

Never DR TCB.

I also think I'm a little bit allergic to it. I stuck to that the day we went to Keith's boss's house where they served us vegetarian's fresh whole lobster.

I hope MBarnum isn't working today. He is missing water polo.

Do you like any shellfish?

Jane · « **Reply #159 on:** July 31, 2012, 02:22:04 PM »

Occasionally I have had scrimp cocktail but it never really agreed with me. I think I liked the sauce. Sometimes Keith order's crab cakes and, if they are excellent, I like a few bites. I don't eat them if they are mediocre.

I like clam dip & chowder but then they really aren't shellfish.

Jane · « **Reply #160 on:** July 31, 2012, 02:26:30 PM »

I enjoy Japanese food very much. One of my favorite dishes is at a local restaurant in town, the eggplant roll. I like to dip it in the tempura sauce & will order the sauce on the side if I don't get any tempura. Once in a while I will order teriyaki salmon if a restaurant doesn't have a good vegetarian selection.

While not a sushi fan I've had excellent cucumber & avacado sushi.

Great news about Craig, Jane.

I had a fine lobster bisque last night (though the lobster was less good than the soup itself, a touch too mealy).

No, the clergy is really,
Too course and too mealy.

That might have been enough to make me a vegetarian. Seriously, not very well thought out considering you are vegetarian AND Jewish.

Gee, I had two pickles today - It must be twins!

Ben · « **Reply #168 on:** July 31, 2012, 03:37:02 PM »

It is here. It wasn't here at 3:30 but I went down and checked again at 5:45 and it was there.

I love the bigger cover art.

One More Kiss is gorgeous. I played that track first because it was the problem child. It's like hearing it brand new.

I will listen to it fully this evening.

I've now seen the artwork for EILEEN; it's quite lovely.

I'm off to meet with a couple for a wedding. The least favorite part of my jobs. Weddings, I hate them. But they bring in the dough. Then it's off to rehearsal. Everybody be good.

Helper has come and gone. I finished reading the Psycho script. I'm too lazy to write right now - just need a little break from things - maybe tonight after I watch something. The Marilyn Monroe box set is at the mail place but I really don't feel like going to pick it up - that said, I have this little craving for a donut, and if I go there I'll go get it. I only had an omelet and a bagel so I could - on the other hand, no time to jog today, unless I just go now. Also, the HUGE Follies poster is being picked up tomorrow and crated, and then will be on its way to me.

LOL not really. There were other people at the dinner who were also startled to have whole lobster's served on their plates. Keith has never had lobster since that dinner.

What a shame you don't like weddings.

Bagels are fattening & if your omelet had cheese it was as well

How the hell does one post a photo from Photobucker here? I forget?

Jane · « **Reply #176 on:** July 31, 2012, 04:26:44 PM »

According to DR George:

Go to http://photobucket.com. To log in, the username is "HHWgroup" (capitalization doesn't matter) and the password is "guyhaines"

(both are without the " marks). If you need to use the e-mail address, it's hhw4hhw@comcast.net.

Now, since the password is going around, anyone can use this. Hopefully this will help with photos when the folder gets full...or even if it doesn't. This can be used at any time.

When you log into Photobucket, click on the green "Upload" button and then the green "Select photos and videos" button and go to where your pictures are saved on your computer. You can select a single picture or you can hold down the control key (on a Windows PC...I don't know about Macs) and select more than one picture, then click "Save." You'll then get a screen with a blue box near the bottom, "Save and continue to my album." Click that after you've selected all your photos. They should then load into Photobucket.

Once loaded, you'll see a box labeled "IMG code" under each picture. Click in the box and copy the code. Then, all you have to do is create a message in HHW (it works for both a "reply," "quick reply" and even PMs) and paste the code into your message.

DR Elmore, if you've posted the photo on Facebook, you can copy and paste its link with around it.

Last time I tried that it didn't work. I think I'll try again.

Well, that should be img and /img each in brackets.
