Well, you've read the notes, the notes were never-ending and told a story, and now it is time for you to post until the never-ending cows come home. They're coming - at least that's their story.

And the word of the day is: CONGLOBATE!

I, for one, am breathlessly awaiting BK's announcement of the "next" Kritzerland release.
Sometime today is it?

Happy Days, Tomovoz, that you are back.

~~~~Health and Wealth Vibes to any and all what needs 'em!~~~~

~~~~A Very Merry Un-Birthday to all of you not having birthdays!~~~~

bk, hope the rest today will help you get well. It is time for this thing to be over!!

I was going to type "over with," but I restrained myself. :)

I need to replace the APC powerblock for my computer equipment. It is making some mighty stange noises!

Something weird seems to be going on. I can't quote, edit, or delete my posts. I found a better link, and was going to update a previous post, but I don't see any way to do it at the moment.

Goodnight DR SweatSocks
I read that as SweetSocks...kind of a cute nickname!

That reminds me... I think I need to do some laundry.

Thanks for asking, DR Vixmom. I'm still struggling with the crud. Like bk, it seems to be two steps forward, one step back. :P

bk, I hope the day of rest does the trick. If not, then maybe it's time to see a Dr. (Not a Dear Reader!)
I don't like taking antibiotics but sometimes I've had to when something like this persists for so long. After they knock it out, I think: "Why didn't I do that sooner?"

Sweetsocks....did you see a Dr.?

Last night, the wife and I went to see APPALOOSA at the local Austin cinema.
I love a good western, and this one had a lot going for it.
Ed Harris, who co-stars, also directed the film and he did a very good job of re-creating New Mexico of 1882. The cinematography was impressive and the performances were all first-rate.
There were also some very memorable scenes.
The problem was with the script. It rambled on, very episodic, without a very strong spine. Indeed, the last 20 minutes felt very anti-climatic.
In fact, I'm still trying to answer the question: "What was the story about?"
On a scale of 1-10, I'd give APPALOOSA a 7.
But, who am I? Ebert & Roper?
[Sorry, BK.]
-
Today, we're going to a restaurant, Green Pastures.
We ate there the last time we were here in Austin and they have a fantastic Sunday brunch. The best I've ever had.
The restaurant is located in an old converted Southern mansion, located on what was once a wealthy estate that was owned by the Faulk family.
If you ever come to Austin, you have to try this place.

Hopefully DR SINGDAW and MR BK will be feeling better as the day wears on. And On looks lovely on Day, especially since the fringe was added.

Today is a WORK day....oh well. I am going to take my fabulous $51 computer and hook it up so that tomorrow my brother in law can install the software on it to make it run the register, and then my sister can call the computer guy after my brother in law messes it up, and HE can install the software to make the register run. Which will probably cost more than the computer did.
-
Thanx again for the continued thoughts from HHW.....
-
Thnaks, Jrand, for the detail about the memorial.

Good morning!
Quite chilly here (40) this morning and only getting into the 60s today. Yep, the sweat shirt and sweat pants are now part of the wardrobe. Shorts are put away, at least for now. It does promise to warm back up early in the week before plunging again around Thursday.
-
Yes, indeed, good health wishes for all who need them.
-
Today I'll start work on DYNASTY, Season 3, Volume 2. Looks like Jack Coleman joins the show in the first episode in the box as the "new" Steven Carrington. This should be a fun assignment since I *WAS* a big DYNASTY fan for its first 5 years. The series was at its apex during seasons 3-5.
-
Since I have no TV stored up on the DVR to watch, I'll finish L.A. CONFIDENTIAL while I cook and eat lunch. There's about an hour left. It is certainly one of THE great films of the 1990s.
-
Thnaks, Jrand, for the detail about the memorial.
YW.
Off to work - oh well.
I did get my RODAN/WAR OF THE GARGANTUAS DVD yesterday along with another HAMMER HORROR set. I watched GARGANTUAS last night with a very nice looking Russ Tamblyn. And I watched most of the documentary on the GODZILLA movies/Toho studios staff, very interesting.
NOW I am off to work.

Good morning, all. I aslept late and now I have my walk to plan.
Last night I watched a BBC movie (short: 79 mintes) about Beau Brummell with James Purefoy as Brummell and Matthew Rhys as Lord Byron. I found parts of it interesting and other matters vague with a lot of needless out-of-focus shots for whatever artistic reasons exist in the director's mind. I need to read a Brummell biography for further clarification.
Today, Toyland Volume Two and some time with THE MOST HAPPY FELLA. First the walk.
BK, do you have health insurance? if so, get your butt to a doctor for some tests and a flu shot. I thought I had the flu and it was diabetes and blood sugar complications. You've been claiming the flu for much longer than I did and you're not showing signs of any ability to overcome this and, as your friend, I suggest you stop procrastinating and see someone. I wouldn't recommend my doctor, but there must be several good ones in LA out of the many thousands who don't specialize in plastic surgery.
That's it for the nonce.

We are dealing with a sick BeeGee, who kept us up most of the night with various problems. He is almost never sick, so we're a little concerned.
That said, VIBES to the humans among you who are not feeling well.
Elmore: I reviewed that Brummel disc months ago--I loved the score.
-
I saw that Purefoy-Rhys movie some months ago (not to review; just on a local station). Love both actors so I enjoyed the show even though I didn't think it was great.

Now, I'm heading down to get clothes ready for washing later today and then go start on fixing something for lunch.

So...
My Dad is already over the hospital. He hitched a ride earlier this morning with some family friends, since his car was still in the hospital's garage. My brothers just called, and they're finally on their way down, so, hopefully, a little after 2:00 we'll all head over to the hospital for a family visit.
In the meantime, I'm doing my laundry. Since I had worn almost everything I had packed this past week, I figured I might as well return to NYC with a "clean" suitcase. *Although, I have to say my parents washing machine is a little confusing. There are no "in-betweens" when it comes to the water level selection - it's either "small", "large" or "super". Of course, the guide inside the lid says their should be options for "small", "medium" or "large". There are also two wash cycle options: "White" and "Casuals". But, again, the information on the inside of the lid says to look for "Cottons" and "Colors". ??? -Who knows? Maybe they got a deal on it. ;)

One of the things I love/loved/miss about Richmond is WCVE, their local PBS, "IdeaStations" affiliate. They just have such a great variety of programming, and they were responsible for many a lazy morning sitting in bed listening to the radio. -Such as this morning.
This weekend's "This American Life" episode, "How to Win Friends and Influence People", was a rebroadcast from a show back in 2001. However, the four "acts" are still amazingly relevant.
Acts Three and Four are loosely based on "Superman", and I suspect that more than a few DRs would appreciate the sentiment (Act Three) and the humor (Act Four) of them.
This American Life: 198: How to Win Friends and Influence People (http://thisamericanlife.org/Radio_Episode.aspx?episode=198)
*Their "Pu-Pu Player" window will pop up and start downloading/streaming the show - after you click on "Full Episode" of course. Act One is a David Sedaris "essay", so... :) -But if you wish to fast forward, just wait for the program to load fully, then click away at the time bar. -You can guesstimate where things start according to the timings given for each story/act.
-
Still congested, but hoping the rest will do me good. I'm definitely going to have chicken soup a little later.

Sunday afternoon greetings! We are still in Carrollton, GA, relaxing after a wonderful wedding day yesterday. My cousin and his bride are so happy and everything went beautifully. This morning they hosted a brunch at Historic Banning Mills. We will be here until tomorrow morning, when we'll drive back to Ohio.

DR JRand - I was so sorry to read about your friend. I'm glad the service yesterday was comforting.

Yesterday, my friend Stan was getting packed up to return to the rehab center from the hospital. Before he left, the hospital ordered another CP Scan on the head injury he received when he fell out of bed in the ICU. They found that there was bleeding on the brain, and they rushed him back into surgery. They ended up putting two holes in his skull to aid in the draining of the blood.

Bruce, have you had that soup yet? My advice, LISTEN TO DR JOSE!! :)
FEEL BETTER SOON VIBES!

I decided to do my weekly weigh - and was rather surprised and delighted to find I dropped three and a half pounds this week - for an official total of 31 1/2 pounds. I am now in a new number, which makes me very happy indeed. This is the first time I've been in my 160s in over eight years.
-
And the new Kritzerland limited edition CD is Bernard Herrmann's A Christmas Carol and A Child Is Born. These were both TV specials in the mid-1950s. Both have either narration and/or dialogue and some sound effects - both have songs by Herrmann as well as wonderful underscore by him, as well. The release is definitely archival in nature - A Child Is Born only came out on a promo 10" record, one of the most collectible of all time. A Christmas Carol comes from acetates made at the time of the broadcast - many years ago I found a reel-to-reel tape made directly from those acetates and have just sat on it for years, until I finally unearthed it several months ago. The mastering engineer has done an amazing job cleaning them up (especially A Child Is Born) and they sound very clear and nice, with the occasional anomaly.
The running time for both scores combined is over fifty minutes. Given that it's our Christmas release and the archival nature of the recordings, we again are offering this at a special price of $15.98 (plus 3.75 shipping). I'm not officially announcing this for another week - so you hainsies/kimlets have a week jump on everyone else (and remember, Laurette completely sold out in less than four days). Payment the usual way via paypal to kritzerland at adelphia dot net. Be sure to put the title of the CD in the paypal invoice.

Thank you for the continued "welcomes".
Comforting and health thoughts to you all.

I had a nice bowl chicken soup - I did a little google research on deli chicken soup with noodles and chicken and was shocked at how low-cal and low fat gram it is. I also had a piece rye bread with a tiny bit of butter. So, I can definitely eat something later. It feels so weird not to have jogged. The soup was very good and very calming and I am feeling a bit better today, but I think I've learned that unless I have that for two days in a row, I'm not counting my chicken soups before they hatch.

It is a beautiful (though a bit chilly) day here. I did keep the door open while I did laundry since the glassed in back porch/laundry room felt warmer than the inside of the house!
-
I finished L.A. CONFIDENTIAL while I cooked and ate lunch. For a transfer as old as it is, it's really very solid looking. Upconverted, it looks more than acceptable. Yes, an HD version would be great, but I can easily live with this one until the price comes down to something reasonable for a catalog title. (If Amazon can charge $13.95 for THE SHINING and $17.95 for BATMAN BEGINS, I expect to see comparable prices for things like BONNIE AND CLYDE and L.A. CONFIDENTIAL, all issued by Warners.)
-
I spent the rest of the afternoon watching the first four episodes of DYNASTY in the box set. The quality of the transfers is splendid, much sharper and deeply colorful than the broadcast versions. One can see just how much make-up (VERY theatrical) Joan Collins in wearing.
I'll hand it to her, however. She knew this was a renaissance for her career, and she is acting the hell out of these soapy scripts. The scripts are really quite laughable now (I didn't laugh then), but it's still been enjoyable revisiting these episodes.
-
For Ben and Ant.
OMG, it's the Quay in the center of Honfleur! Thank you kind gentleman. I will show it to Anthony when he returns home this week.
-
In the last episode I watched, the bandages finally came off to reveal Jack Coleman as the new Steven. I had forgotten all about Kirby and Adam's fixation on her (and her fixation on Jeff). Fallon is still played by Pamela Sue Martin, endlessly more effective than Emma Samms.
So, a nice reunion with the Carringtons and the Colbys. I should be able to get at least three more episodes watched tonight. There are twelve in all, so that would leave me with five for tomorrow.

Wow, one order for the Herrmann so far. O-kay.

I have the CD to "Marguerite." I liked it, but didn't love it. To me, the CD felt incomplete (story-wise) in ways that other cast recordings don't. I don't know why. I'd love to hear a more complete recording of the score.

What A Way To Start Married Life
-
Just been watching Dragnet episodes. I had no idea that not only did they have a different partner for Jack Webb originally, there was also a different Frank Smith originally - Herb Ellis - have no idea how many episodes he did before Ben Alexander came on. The minute Alexander appeared you knew instantly that they'd found the perfect match for Webb, because he brought humor to the show, in the same way Harry Morgan would in Dragnet 1967.

How about assembling your old (and I'm sure a few new ones) stable of stars and doing a Tony Hatch album or a Dory and Andre Previn album? What great material for those wonderful singers and your ideas!!!!!!!!!

Who is Bruce Darling? Wendy's other brother?

Kerry, all I need is the dough. I had two albums I wanted to do about five years ago - a Previn album and a Bricusse/Newley album.

Good afternoon. I had a lovely morning. My mom came over last night and bottle fed Toby at the 3 am feeing, so I slept blissfully from 1 to 6:30, which is twice as long as I usually can. Then we drove up to SeaTac (the town between Seattle and Tacoma, natch) and met my sister and father for our annual October birthday breakfast family gathering. My sister lives in Seattle, my folks live on the other side of the state, and we live in Tacoma, so we gather in a central location each October to celebrate my mom's birthday on the 10th, my sisters on the 22nd, and DH Jed's on the 26th. Toby was supposed to be another added to the list, but the boy evidently wanted a month to himself, so he went with Sept 6th.
We met at our usual diner called the Pancake Chef, where we all had delicious omelets with their signature silver dollar pancakes. Jed had a spinach one, my sister and I had country omelets, and my folks split a crab one. They were all delicious, and we spend an enjoyable time together. I managed to nurse Toby in the wrap without anyone seeing anything they shouldn't, and he was a very contented little guy.
My mom came back and made us an apple pie with apples from our garden, and then she drove home. Jed is now watching football and I am listening to George Hearn and Barbara Cook sing Too Many Mornings on my itunes.
-
DR Ann, I wish my family were so close. It sounds like a lovely day.
Foolish Toby, October is a beautiful time of year. On the other hand, September makes for great outdoor birthday parties. Craig's parties were often twice the size of Bryan's, our almost Christmas baby.
-
I'm so happy I checked email before reading the voters pamphlet. A lost friend found me on Facebook, & I have the special honor of being her first friend :)
-
I forgot when I comment on a photo, said photo will show up on my Facebook page. Now I need to comment on a comment & photo on my page. ;D
-
I have taken the plunge and joined Facebook. Oy.
-
DR JMK, your name is too common-lol. Please find me instead & I'll be your friend. :)
-
Never mind, I found you right away.:)
-
Jane, did you get my friend request? :)
-
Fellow DR Oregonians. Measure 54 was an easy read & decision, even while drinking a glass of wine. Did you even know one had to be 21 years old to vote in school board elections? :o
-
Jane, did you get my friend request? :)
I just confirmed. Thanks for asking, my yahoo home page didn't show I had email.
-
Did you ever have something like this happen? You know you have something - you know where it should be - it isn't there. You look in all the places you might have moved it to - not there. Anyone have any suggestions? This happens to be the published sheet music for Herrmann's xmas carol, which I've owned for about five years (bought on eBay) - it's signed by Herrmann and his then-wife, Lucille Fletcher. I've looked every place where I have sheet music - it used to be on the piano - was there for years, but I obviously moved it. Looked in the bench - nothing. I even looked in the closet with all my memorabilia, thinking I might have moved it in there to protect it. Nothing.
-
Happens on a regular basis, every time I organize or move.
-
I am already overwhelmed with Facebook. And I have also already found an old friend I have been searching for for decades!
-
Never mind, I found you right away.:)
DR JMK, now that I see your Facebook page, who the heck is Jeff H Kaufman? You think I might have noticed the spelling was different. Guess that's what happens when I have half a glass of wine. ;D
Bruce who did I invite to be my friend? ;D
-
Hi all! I spent the day doing some cleaning around the house. You never do get everything done that you set out to do but at least I feel like I made some progress.
-
I am already overwhelmed with Facebook. And I have also already found an old friend I have been searching for for decades!
Finding old friends is great! Aside from old friends I communicated with the other person in this world who shares my name. She is really nice, wish she and Keith were related.
-
Hi Danise, I know what you mean. I did that yesterday.
-
I have a funny story to tell you all about Sheena and I. I was asleep and dreaming that I was riding a bus. Not like one I go to work with but more like a school bus because 3 people could fit on the seat.
There were already 2 other people (I can't remember if I knew them or not) but the bus stopped and a very LARGE woman (and I mean very, very, very-that's 3 verys) got on. The first thought that popped in my head was "Oh, no you don't. You can't sit on this seat!". Well, guess what? She came and pushed us all over.
We were squeezed tighter then a vise. I wiggled forward to try to make some kind of room but my back started to hurt. I remember I said something like, "I'm sorry but I have to sit back--my back is killing me!"
Then I woke up. Miss Sheena was balled against the small of my back and it hurt. I starting laughing and told her, "Oh--So YOUR the fat woman in my dream! Move over!"
Anyway, it gave me a chuckle to start the day with.
-
Funny dream. :)
-
Kerry, all I need is the dough. I had two albums I wanted to do about five years ago - a Previn album and a Bricusse/Newley album.

Ditto.
-
I'm very happy to see DR TomovOZ posting again.
I'm also sorry to hear about your friend, DR TCB. I send mega vibes his and your way. Those who care need vibes too.
-
I also wanted to tell you all about the sign I saw in my eye doctors office the other day. It said: "If I had a flower for every time I thought about you, I would walk in my garden forever." I thought that was very touching.
-
I'm now friends on facebook with DR JMK!

Deciphering the true meaning behind some of these measures is difficult enough without having had wine first. ::) ;D
-
Whenever I see the title of today's notes, I have to wonder if anyone else remembers Limahl. . . .
-

You should try the Jack Daniels instead.
-
My sight, BTW, is still the same but with some extras. I wasn't sure I was even going to tell the doctor about it but I've been seeing things out of the corner of my eyes. Quick dark "flashes" for lack of a better word to call them. Sometimes they startle me. I thought the doctor would say I was seeing things and needed "help".
Well, it turns out that my old friend, stress, has reared his ugly head again. I was told they are quite common when someone is highly stressed and are a warning sign to take things easy. He wants me to monitor how often I see them because it could be the start of other problems.
Not to worry, I haven't seen them recently. It was very common when Bear had his surgery and afterwards. They seem to be going away now.

Your first clew that it wasn't me might have been that I am J M K, not J H K. ;D
-
I just popped over to Face Book. I don't see where Jane is now friends with anyone new.
-
Goodnight DR SweatSocks
I read that as SweetSocks...kind of a cute nickname!
Or a name for a cat

Oh, DR ColeSlaw has had his share with a saucer of cream. . .

Jane - who?
-
Had a nice call from Miss Crista Moore, who told me all the new patter I revised for her landed great.
-
I've looked and looked and still can't find it. I know I put a bunch of piano stuff in a big box which I moved to the garage, but I found that and it's been back in the house for a few weeks and I looked through it and while a lot of the piano stuff is there, this book isn't. I suppose it could have ended up in another box, but I'm usually pretty careful with rare items like this.

This much JD & I would be under the table. ;D On the plus side my neck & shoulder would stop hurting. ;)
-
I have a new board question. I remember that before, I had to resize all my pictures before I could post them or I would throw us into widescreen. Do I still have to resize them or do they do that themselves now?
With this new computer, I don't have any software to resize anything. At least until I get Parallels on board with Windows XP and I can load all my old windows software.

I guess I should also ask the same question for Face Book. Can I post a photo there without resizing software?
-
Let me just send vibes to all for everything I've missed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
Anyone have any suggestions?
It's usually in the very last place that you look.
;D

Like I would remember your middle initial WITHOUT the wine. The spelling of the last name is different, so is the photo. You must go look at this guy. He looks like he could be you, without facial hair. ;D After the wine anyway. I didn't think so before.
-

Ain't it the truth! :)
-
I'm curious...has anyone else besides DR Jane "friended" a person on Facebook because they share your name? I was just contemplating doing that earlier today. It might be fun, or it might be weird. Most of my namesakes appear to be in England.
-
I never thought about it. I wonder how many would have the name: "Danise"?
-
Holy Moly on Rye--There's 3 pages of them!
-
And some of them are guys!
-
And some of them are guys!
Quick! Befriend them all!
Well, ya never know when you're gonna need a male "Danise."
-
DR TCB, :'(
I'm glad you are back home. Maybe this will make for a good distraction....
Watch. (http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=6b0_1223647591&c=1)
Do you think he was ever asked to be Best Man again?
I feel bad laughing. I hope the bride took it in stride. I'm not sure what I would have done. ;D ;D
What CAN you do...
-
I can quote but I can't modify posts or
delet delete them
Never mind....I forgot I can only do that to my own posts, lol...
-
And as for my last name, I'm amazed how many of them there are. Lots of them are from-----Australia!

I can quote but I can't modify posts or delete them
Me, too! :-\

Well, ya never know when you're gonna need a male
I couldn't agree more...

A singer from NYC sent me a friend request. Turns out he was looking for another me.

Hey, I just found a group on Face Book for people with my last name! How cool is THAT???
Thanks for the idea, DR Singdaw! Who knows, I may find some family out there.
-
I find it just a bit disturbing that my moniker is JMK here and yet DR Jane or whatever the hell her name is hasn't figured out my middle name starts with an M. :)
-

This seems very odd? Weren't you able to before today? This is the first I've heard of this. I can delete and modify and I know some others here have been able to, so is there something that got switched in a setting?

I am the same person who looked all over the house for my wrist watch only to find it on my wrist

A test for Ben's memory.
It looks familiar but I'm not sure. I do know what it's not, it's not La Lieutenance, it's not the Boudin Museum, it's not the birthplace of Erik Satie and it's not Ste. Catherine Church, which I used to pass when I walked from the cottage to the center of town, past the Patisserie and down to the Saturday marche.
Oh, Tom, 20 years of memories flood back. It was 1988 when I spent 6 weeks in Honfleur, picking wild blackberries and fraises (wild strawberries) which were growing outside the door of the cottage, walking through the old, old cemetery and walking along the Seine estuary. Mrs. Jolibois, the matriarch of the family that owned the cottage (she walked halfway across France during WWII to trade her jewelry to get her husband out of a French Nazi prison camp during the occupation) was surprised that we picked the blackberries. They were not worth picking unless there were enough to make jam. They didn't eat them any other way. We loved them as a breakfast treat with a warm croissant and strong French coffee.
What a time. What memories. Thanks again my friend.

A singer from NYC sent me a friend request. Turns out he was looking for another me.

Little June or Jan or Jean or whatever she's named, sitting quietly in the den, hallucinating in front of her computer. Such a cozy image.

That's the one I found. Of course he could be my long lost twin, I'm sure you'd all agree.
-
I tried to post some test photos on face book and here. I managed to get them to post to face book without having to do anything to them but I couldn't get them to post at all here.
It's getting time for me to sign off. I have some other things to do before I retire for the evening.
Good night all!
-
Good night Danise.
-
Why is TD poking me?
Because you deserve it?
-
Sweet dreams, DR Danise! :)

No, it's Jeff H Kaufman who deserves it.

(http://profile.ak.facebook.com/profile5/1522/109/s587180325_2862.jpg)
That's my pal Jeff Kaufman, who is a film music agent, and who I've known since he worked at the old Aron's records in the 1970s.
-
OK. Time for Sunday night things. Garbage, recycling, etc.
-
Once again I sort of have the chills - really weird - only happens later in the afternoon and evening. I HATE THIS and I am JOGGING tomorrow.

I'm surprised we have ANY posts, what with this mad obsession with Facebook. Of course, had many of you actually read Murder At The Grove, you would have known all about Facebook.

DR TCB go to the Facebook search on the upper right & type in their name. Also check friends of your Facebook friends for people you know.

Good Evening Uncle Jo Jo-

No. See above post. Sorry. But I have some time now before I head to the bus station, so... We'll see.
-
BK are you drinking lots of water? That's always very helpful for me when I'm trying to get over the crud
-
So...
My brothers ended up getting here within five minutes of each other, and so we were all able to head over the hospital shortly after everyone arrived. John Michael, Alexandra, Alyssa and Emily were all well-behaved as they walked through the halls of the hospital - they were fascinated by how large the elevators were! -And my brothers, Don and Mike, and myself were also well-behaved.
My Mom looked great, and all the kids were able to greet her with some very gentle hugs and kisses. We hung out in her room for about half an hour. The kids even left a "souvenir" for her - a customized Get Well message on the nurse's in-room dry erase board. :)
-And it's looking like she could be coming home as early as tomorrow. At the latest Tuesday. :)
*It also turns out that the visiting nurse will be coming daily. Twice daily, in fact. :)
-
bk - The reason your getting the chills is because you need to eat. Stop worrying about the fat grams and calories right now. All that self-induced "nudge stress" isn't helping you either.
-
*It also turns out that the visiting nurse will be coming daily. Twice daily, in fact. :)
Much, much better.:)
-
JMK, is James Montgomery a friend of yours? Because he is suddenly a friend of mine.
-
After we left the hospital, we all headed over to the huge(!!!!) new Bass Pro/Outdoor World (http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CFPage?storeId=10151&catalogId=10001&langId=-1&appID=94&storeID=67) store that opened near my parents' house. It's basically like a Disneyland for Hunters and Fishermen. And it really is a BIG store. Two floors of outdoor gear, plus an indoor archery range, an educational aquarium, a trout pond, a fudge shop, a candy store, a restaurant and a bar(!!!!!).
The kids had a blast running around - although, I did find it a little disconcerting going by the gun displays and seeing a grandma buying hunting guns for her grandchildren. -But that's just me. ??? :-\
I took a bunch of pics with my iPhone, and will post them sometime soon on my Facebook page. So, stay tuned. :)
-
My brother, Don, was also able to set up the computer downstairs in my parents' bedroom. The color laser(!) printer is still upstairs, but the whole house it wired for wireless.
*Don also very generously gave me a new MacBook - which I'm using right now. -It's actually last year's model - not the new aluminum case ones - but still... :) I'll still keep my other one - which is already four years old, but at least now I have some options. ;)

OH TCB, I cannot even imagine how horrible it must be for your buddy Stan. All my best vibes to him
-
JMK, is James Montgomery a friend of yours? Because he is suddenly a friend of mine.
If it's the same one (and I'm assuming it is), he was the wonderful Judge/Narrator in the clinically proven best version of Reefer Madness, AKA Going to Pot.
-
Kerry, all I need is the dough. I had two albums I wanted to do about five years ago - a Previn album and a Bricusse/Newley album.
I'm cheering you on, Bruce.
-
DR Jane - As for commenting on photos.. Well, nevermind... ;)
Now, as for the Kaufman/Kauffman Konundrum, well... I've been meaning to ask you how you knew "J___ C. Kaufman" on Facebook, but then I realized that we both know him from the same place. -Which happens to be from here, the early days of HHW. :)
-
Vibes to Stan!!! Huge hugs too!
-
And vibes and hugs to DRJose and his family.
-
DRLaura, please tell Sandra I left her flamingo in the car.

DR JMK - To search for Groups on Facebook, just use the same Search box you use for finding friends. It will bring up people, pages, groups, events and web-related results.

Odd, I wonder what happened to your modify box.
That's a great quote, Jane.
-
Yes, I'm drinking lots of water and yes, I've been eating regularly today, starting with the bowl of chicken soup and two pieces of rye bread, followed by two macaroons, and then a few minutes ago two eggs on an English muffin - all within my diet sphere, I might add. I'll also have two pieces of chocolate licorice and that will be that.
-
Of course, "I left her flamingo in the car" is also a great quote.

I guess it's my turn to ask for vibes for a friend. My best friend's husband, Steve, found out this past week that he has bladder cancer. He will find out tomorrow when he has to go to Mayo in Rochester to have his bladder removed. They will also take the prostate and all the lymph nodes in the area, hopefully they will get it all. The fascinating thing is, they will then make a new bladder out of a portion of his intestine...isn't it just amazing what they can do?
Anyway, vibes would be very much appreciated. He has 4 cancer survivors in his family, so we're hoping that's a good omen.

VIBES FOR STEVE & HIS FAMILY FOR WHAT IS AHEAD!!!
-
Prayers and vibes for Steve.
-
Of course, "I left her flamingo in the car" is also a great quote.
:) yes, it is. I'll let Kerry or Sandra take that one
-
Thanks for the vibes.

Has anyone seen The Secret Life of Bees yet? I was going to go this weekend but just didn't get there.
Think I'll go get a WW fudge bar. I still have points I need to eat today
-
I'm been waiting to hear your report. I did speak to someone who saw, & highly recommended it. She hadn't read the book.
-
'night

-And it looks like another good baseball game tonight.

I'm sure it will be playing Portland for more than a week. -Unless it's getting "dumped" to make room for "HSM3". :-\ ;)

You know, if people were like they are in a MENTOS commercial....things would so much nicer!!

Well, my laundry is done, and I've packed my clothes. Now, I just need to organize and pack all the rest of my stuff - which now includes a new laptop, laptop case, etc. So...
Laters...

And who could ever forget this one! It is weird, but these commercials make me sooo happy!

Read the comic strip, "Sheldon" for today. It's a "guide' for Weight Watchers. It's a riot and very true

Except that MBarnum isn't up in the "big city," he's down in Salem.

Why is TD poking me?
Because you're there.

JMK, is James Montgomery a friend of yours? Because he is suddenly a friend of mine.
He probably just loved your photo from 1974. . .

Pardon me if I whine, but I thought summer was supposed to be over. It was hot today.

Well... I'm glad I double-checked the bus times for my trip back. I went back to the website for the company I took down here, and the only departures they had listed were for 7:00am. Nope, no can do that. So, I tracked down and old e-mail that a friend had sent me, and checked out the two other companies that run between here and NYC. I brought up both sites, and they both had departures for either 12:30am or 1:00am. Whew!
-Then I realized that all THREE companies are part of some "collective", so I'm guessing when I saw the 1:00am Richmond departures before, I was seeing them for the other bus companies since they're all listed on the same main site - even though the exact bus company name is not given until checkout. -I also found out that the pick-up spot here in Richmond is different from where I was dropped off. Again... Whew!
-Back to packing.

Someone is growling outside.

Wow! That game warden must really like you. ;)

You had a right to whine today.
-
Someone is growling outside.
Are you outside growling? First whining, now growling. Uh Oh!
-
Excellent vibes and xylophones for Steve.
-
I think I'm going to now take a nice long shower. I'm thinking that I may write and post the notes by ten, change the topic, and go to bed.
-

Well, I did give him quite a stromboli the other day.
-
That sounds like a good idea, BK.
-
Vibes to Cilla's friend Steve
-
Continued vibes to TCB's friend.
-
And now the chills are gone - just like that. This damn government induced flu is the worst EVER. One of these fine days the truth will out and there is going to be hell toupee for our wonderful government.
-
Still, it would be a good idea to rest another day.
-
My sight, BTW, is still the same but with some extras. I wasn't sure I was even going to tell the doctor about it but I've been seeing things out of the corner of my eyes. Quick dark "flashes" for lack of a better word to call them. Sometimes they startle me. I thought the doctor would say I was seeing things and needed "help".
Well, it turns out that my old friend, stress, has reared his ugly head again. I was told they are quite common when someone is highly stressed and are a warning sign to take things easy. He wants me to monitor how often I see them because it could be the start of other problems.
Not to worry, I haven't seen them recently. It was very common when Bear had his surgery and afterwards. They seem to be going away now.
~~~No More Stress Vibes and No More Dark Flashes Vibes for DR Danise!!~~~
-
Thanks all for the vibes. I will hear from Gretchen as soon as they know when they go to Rochester. She was supposed to be on a bird watching trip in Bolivia right now. Luckily he went to the doctor before she left and not right after. Needless to say, she isn't in Bolivia.
-
BK, a nice hot shower and going to bed early sounds like an excellent plan.
-
bk - As for the government and your "flu conspiracy", well... Maybe there was a reason your pool turned green. ;)
-
OK - I think I'm ready to head back up to NYC. I just need to figure out how to balance and hold all the small bag I'm bringing back with me. I think I should be fine on the bus, but getting through the subway turnstiles is going to take some maneuvering I think. ;)
In any case, I'm gonna log off and shut down my (old) laptop now, and make sure I am indeed ready to head back to NYC. I'll have my iPhone, but I think I'm going to try to sleep as much as I can on the bus. -I also realized I get a bit of motion sickness on the bus while reading my iPhone, so...
OK...
Laters...
-
And, yes, bk - a hot shower and an early evening are good things.
And what would be even better, would be taking a nice brisk walk tomorrow morning instead of the "long, hard jog". If there's still a fragment of the crud in your system, four miles of bodily exertion ain't gonna help your cause.
-
I began my evening watching four more episodes of DYNASTY. Nice to see guest stars like David Hedison and John McCook. Steven's finally home and already his dad is clashing with him over his "lifestyle." [sigh] For all the bullcrap about loving his son, etc. he never, ever accepted him as a gay man. Of course, with all of Steven's marriages, I'm not sure he did a great job at accepting himself either.
-
That leaves me with only four more episodes of the show. These are the kinds of box sets that are a pleasure to tackle.
-
Next, I watched GENERAL HOSPITAL: NIGHT SHIFT which had Chad Allen's last episode of his four-part story arc with the gay doctor on the show. Hooray! They didn't kill him! That means they can bring him back next season and maybe make him a permanent love interest for Dr. Kyle.
-
Next was another sensational episode of TRUE BLOOD. Such fascinating characters; you just never know what going to happen next.
-
Cool! Our local newspaper had this bid and buy thing where you could go online and bid on items from their advertisers. The reserve was 1/2 price. So I bid and won a year membership to the Curves in my neighborhood for half price! Yeah! I'm really happy about this. Having an entire year paid for will make me go more often. It worked last time I did that. And they have a really cool new stretching machine. Not sure how that works, but you do it at the end of the workout. I'll go pay for it tomorrow and can start this week. That makes me very happy
-
Next, DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES. The points about happiness mixed with jealousy were SO true. Pretty enjoyable episode but nothing special.
-
And I ended my evening watching the first half hour of BROTHERS & SISTERS. I'll be interested to see how various plots wrap up that were started in the first half hour. I should have plenty of time to get to it tomorrow.
-
I thought they had those in torture chambers, Cillaliz.
-
LOL, Matt, I only saw the last half of BROTHERS & SISTERS. I was wondering how various plots started!
-
I thought they had those in torture chambers, Cillaliz.
Torture chamber, gym....potatoes, potahtoes
-
Well, I'm sleepy Think I'll check in to see if it's my turn on one of the three Scrabble games I'm playing through Facebook and then go to bed. Night

I am hiding in a tree
I'm a fragment of the crud
Feel it coarsing through your blood

Going to write for a little bit and then head back downstairs for bed.
Good night!
-
I'm surprised we have ANY posts, what with this mad obsession with Facebook. Of course, had many of you actually read Murder At The Grove, you would have known all about Facebook.
I have a Facebook account and just got some new friends today! But I don't go there very often...at all.
-
Well...
I'm glad I got to the bus pick-up spot early. From what I could tell, the "12:30" bus left at 12:10. It was full, sold out, etc. And it looks like this driver is going to go ahead and have this "1:00" bus leave at 12:30. This bus isn't full yet, but the driver is making sure that everyone puts their bags on top instead of on their seats. I'm guessing the trip from DC to NYC will be packed. We shall see...
My friend, Mike, had warned me that this particular bus line can get a bit unpredictable at times, and I guess it is. And another friend had said that there were quite a number of Chinese, Korean, Thai, etc., workers who make regular treks between Richmond and NYC. They work here in Richmond during the week, and then head back to NYC on the weekends to see their families. And vice versa.
-
Thankfully, this particular bus does not have that "not-so-fresh" smell like my Richmond-bound one did. ;)
-
I gotta tell you. I'm Dragnet-ed out right now, but I must say I find them very enjoyable.
-
Hmmm... The bus driver seems to be doing some creative seat shuffling and assigning. Too bad I don't understand Chinese. Hmmm....
-
Hmmm... So, "Tony", my driver, who is "nice guy", just asked me to move to another seat so that his "cousins" could sit together. -And then he started joking with some other "cousins" about someone else's ticket... "chicken an' broccoli, chicken an' broccoli... Ha, ha, HA!!"
Hmmm...
-
Well, I do have to say that this is quite the "happy" bus. And it really does look like Tony has a bunch of family members - or at least close friends - on board. And they are all "happy" too. And by "happy", I mean talking and chatting and laughing. So, let's see if they quiet down once we start moving... Which should be soon. I hope.
-
Worry-free bus ride vibes to Jose.
-
Well, I guess I am on the "1:00" bus.
*Thank you, DR FJL.
-
And a group of "regulars" just boarded, all NYU students. "Tony" even greeted them with, "I thought you never made it.". ;)
-
And we're moving...
Goodnight.
-
Well, BK has started the new day but forgot to close today's posts.

Good Morning!
I'm up, I'm up... And this topic is still not locked up yet. ;)
-
That's why it's called THE NEVER-ENDING STORY!!!! :)
-
I always love the never-ending story days!
;D
-
I thought
-
be fun
-
between days.
-
We are still unlocked!
What fun!
-
Tee hee! :)
-
This topic IS never ending!
;D
-
Is it Sunday or is it Monday?
-
It must be Sunday because I'm at home.
-
But it has to be Monday....doesn't it?
-
Facebook...it's a nice "alternate" place to go for meeting new folks who don't have places like HainesHisWay and FilmScoreMonthly, etc. It's also fun to look up people from the past to see if they, too, are seeking similar connections.
Sad to say that many folks I'd like to connect with don't have accounts.
-
Are you posting in yesterday's topic just to be contrary?
;D
