Well, you've read the notes, the notes toddled, and now it is time for you to post until the toddlin' cows come home.

And the word of the day is: BUOYANCY!

Vibes for a safe flight, BK! Wave when you fly over Arizona (a DR Ginny reference).
-
have a great day to all

From Laura:
Helen is the singer flirting with the male singer. The male singer is engaged to the annoyed woman (who is annoyed because she brought her father to the club and is watching her boyfriend flirting with Helen). Helen gets murdered after this song.
;D

Bruce, most excellent vibes and xylophones for a safe, secure, and on-time flight!

DR TCB,
:o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o
"every time I mentioned to the surgeon that the MRI showed severe spinal stenosis, the P.A. kept correcting me and saying Adjacent Segment Disease."
Were the P.A. & the doctor with you in the room together & only the P.A. corrected you while the doctor didn't say anything?
I hope your doctor will be calling the surgeon tomorrow and at the least speed up the referral. Honestly, I'm surprised your rant wasn't longer.
-
Morning all.
That is all.
-
The Long Island Railroad is back up and working so I shall be heading out there today after work.
-
Morning Ben. Have a nice day. I'm going to try & go back to sleep.
-
I was up at 4 am this morning and will be heading off to the airport (and Chicago) in about 25 minutes.
Dinner with BK tonight.
Signing books and DVDs tomorrow and Sunday, then I'm catching a late plane that will get me back here in Austin about 11:30 Sunday night.
-
I'm looking forward to doing the show, but I really hate traveling.
-
Morning Jane. I assume you're back to sleep. I didn't see you at 5 when I logged in.
-
Travel to Chicago vibes for MR BK and DR DRUXY.
And of course vibes for the CELEBRITY SHOW!!!
-
Today is a work day. Oh well. At least it's not a Zumba day.
-
My sister and niece will be visiting Westminster Abbey and Hatfield House today in London.
-
Good morning, all! I think we'll have more rain today; I just put the laundry into the washers.
Last night I slept well, but I had a long rambling dream involving Mr Steve Sondheim, Mr Jonathan Tunick, and myself and a recording of FOLLIES, I awoke with "Little White House" rolling around my mind.
This morning, I have the laundry to finish, some notes to write, and a bit of tidying up the apartment. After that, I am off to see my friend Kasey Marino in a NYMF show at 1pm, If he doesn't have to run off to his other show following the performance, I'll see if he wants to grab a cup of coffee.
DR JRand61, how long will your family be in London? I am so jealous! I hope they have a wonderful time.

Friday morning greetings! Today, Richard and I are helping at the registration table for the Middfest business luncheon. We have to pick up the centerpieces at the florist and deliver them to the hotel in the Cincinnati 'burbs where the event takes place. We then have to greet people, give them their name tags, and direct them to their assigned tables. Richard also has to prompt the hotel staff to turn off the Peruvian music when it's time to begin the formalities. For lunch we're having Pollo de Antichucos.
-
I'm up and shall shortly be on my way to the airport. Awaiting the arrival of the driver.

Now I am even more jealous!
Have a good day, DR JRand61! I'll report to you on this other DVD of LA VIE PARISIENNE from the 1980s. I've been meaning to ask you if you have a non-regional DVD player?
-
DR ELMORE they will be returning one week from Saturday...but they are also spending a few days in Paris.
Oh, we'll just miss them in Paris - we arrive on the 11th!

Welcome from the airport. Even though I'd paid a little extra for the "premiere line" - less waiting - there was no line, premiere or otherwise. I got through security in about two minutes. And now I'm in the United Red Carpet Club relaxing. Boarding isn't for another hour.

Yippee!! Just received the big box Blu-ray Ultimate Collector's Edition of BEN-HUR. It's certainly a wonderfully presented package. Now to find time to watch it.

Until the 16th, when we take a train to Nuremberg to catch our river cruise to Luxembourg. Then, a couple of days in Reims and home. My first trip to Europe and Richard's first since he was stationed there in the Army 40 years ago.

But, today, we're off to learn about Peru - bye for now!

bk - The Premiere Line usually applies to the boarding process, not the security screening. You should be able to board right after the First Class passengers and members of the military.
-
Actually, the premiere line is for security. I already get to board early because of the extra legroom seat :)

Happy and safe travels to all (well--- who are traveling)

DR TCB I am so sorry. I was hoping to read good news.
What a ridiculous thing for a doctor or PA to say when you are obviously in so much pain.

Making some changes to the YouTube screen for my brother's video, so i removed that post about it.

I have nothing to say today.
That won't stop me from saying it loudly at every opportunity, however.
Rick Perry looks like Fred Willard after Botox injections.

Morning Jane. I assume you're back to sleep. I didn't see you at 5 when I logged in.
It took awhile to fall asleep. I finally propped my pillows into a sitting position & my stomach ache (the reason I was awake) eased up. You sure get up early in the morning.

I was great friends with the gentleman's mother, back in the day... she was a friend of my mother, and I enjoyed her attention throughout my childhood... she died more than 15 years ago, but came to me in a dream recently and told me to call her son, whom I hadn't seen or spoken to in over 40 years... and here I am.

DR elmore did you see Penny's post to you in the middle of a quote?

I had a decent work out. Now I need to get ready to leave for my lunch date. I popped in as I forgot to wish DR Druxy's safe & easy travel vibes.
-
Dearest, darlingest PennyO! I'm good until Sunday, and I am good for Artie's any time!
I have returned from the NYMF show TIME BETWEEN US, with my friend Kasey Marino, a 90-minute one-act musical about 30year friendship between a gay man and a straight woman from college graduation to late middle age. I liked much of it, The score was played by a piano and cello, and I liked a lot of it.

Yummy! I love lamb shanks, preferably with mashed potato.

Welcome from Chicago - Rosemont to be exact. Plane ride was very nice and the hotel is also very nice. Druxy was downstairs when I checked in, like a welcoming committee. I'm going downstairs now to have a drink with him and Bridget Hanley.
-
We are back from the luncheon, which was quite nice with fa-boo food! We've changed clothes and will now go to the Middfest venue to deliver the cheese ball and crackers that I'm donating to the Sponsors' Lounge. We also have to take the centerpieces to wherever they're going to use them next. Then we get to enjoy the Middfest opening ceremony and tonight's festivities.
-
Good afternoon. I had a whirlwind trip down to a native plant nursery in Tucson. Now I have to dig thirty holes.

Ginny, I have a sister who lives near Nuremburg. Great area. Wish I were headed back there soon.
DR John G - unfortunately, we will be in Nuremburg only long enough to get from the train station to where our boat is docked. If our trains are on time, we'll be fine; if we have any major delays, we may have to call your sister for a ride to the next stop on the cruise!

DR PennyO - please give my regards to Broadway. And to DR Elmore and to any other DRs you get to see while you're in NYC!

Bruce, most excellent vibes and xylophones for a safe, secure, and on-time flight!
Jane, what were you doing up at 2:00 a.m.?
-
Speaking of the centerpieces, they are Middfest coffee mugs filled with fall flowers and an American and a Peruvian flag. However, they were short Peruvian flags, so some of them only had American flags when we picked them up this morning. Wise Fr. Richard suggested that, given the event and the audience, it would be better to have some with NO flag rather than just the American flag, so we removed it from 4 or 5 of the centerpieces.

When was the last time we had a discourse on

I didn't go to work today. I didn't even want to get out of bed. I really just wanted to bury my head under the covers. But I finally did get up; and, as usual, reading all the notes of encouragment and good vibes from all of you has helped me feel better.
Thank you to one and all!

Do you all remember the wonderful Miss Manners? My two favorite dictates on taste from her were these, and I'm not quoting her accurately:
Q: When is a Vase a Vahs?
A: When it's filled with dahzies.
Q: A gay couple has moved into the neighborhood and it's upsetting everyone. What can we do to improve the quality of the neighborhood?
A: You could move.

I keep running the events of yesterday thru my head. They acted like I had lied to them before about having had previous back surgery. I know what I wrote on the forms when I first came in to the office, and I remember discussing the fact that I had two back surgeries three days apart (one thru the back and one thru the front). Or maybe, because they weren't going to get all the insurance money from surgery, they just washed their hands of me.
Not surprisingly, the surgeon's office had not sent any information to my doctor regarding my appointments or my CAT scan results. We had to send off a Release of Information to the surgeon's office, because my doctor said that there was no way they would send him the info without that in place. So, we are at the moment, at a standstill.

Had some fun with Druxy and Bridget Hanley. Ran into Mark Rothman (the Brain at the Chance Theater) - he's with the Laverne and Shirley group. Odd set-up but I'm very happy where they put us. The Laverne and Shirley folks are in a hallway with some other big people but I really don't like the layout so I'm glad we're elsewhere. We're in a big room - I'm next to Bridget who's next to Druxy, but nearby is Clint Walker, Diane Baker, Millie Perkins, Barry Bostwick, etc. Cancellations include Joe Turkel, Connie Francis, and Dolores Hart. There are only thirty-seven of us, which means we could actually make some sales here.

Now ask me how I really feel.

Love that!!! I may just make that clapping audience my screen saver...

Elmo - Sunday, chicken soup, Artie's!

For you Penny, it would be a standing O.
-
TCB - we'll wish you well... to hell with the Medical Bureaucrats! Unconscionable.
-
Kind words, dear Sir, kind words...
-
Standing O... and now all I can think of is sex in a shower...
-
Meant that last one to say, to TCB - Honey, I'm so sorry - if they can't fix you, at least they can drive you mad...
Thanks, Penny, I had really high hopes going into yesterday.
-
And now, to dress for The Theatah! bye, kidz... <smooch>
-
Standing O... and now all I can think of is sex in a shower...
LOL! ;D
-
The runaround you're getting for the sheer length of time you're getting it... kinda makes one understand, if not condone, terrorists...
-
Oh, you laughed at my joke!! That's really all I ever care about. Thanks for laughing, dude.
-
Okay, so now I really do have to do something about my hair... and my face... and iron something to wear...
-
My brain seems to have dried up on me this week. Did I remember to tell everyone that I started the application process for Social Security Disability?
-
and please, someone, remind me how to change my photo - I have a recent one that I'd like to put in here.

What are you seeing tonight?
-
TCB, Baby! it only took me 3- count 'em - 3 years to get through that SS Disability maze for my disabled cousin... started August, 3 years ago, and finally got her approved this past Aug, and her first check finally came mid-Sept... oy... they'll drive a person crazy.
I'm gonna hope your story is MUCH funnier, and a whole lot easier...
-
Gonna see FOLLIES!!!!!
-
more later... MUCH later... but, of course, earlier on the Left Coast... bye, all...

Had some fun with Druxy and Bridget Hanley. Ran into Mark Rothman (the Brain at the Chance Theater) - he's with the Laverne and Shirley group. Odd set-up but I'm very happy where they put us. The Laverne and Shirley folks are in a hallway with some other big people but I really don't like the layout so I'm glad we're elsewhere. We're in a big room - I'm next to Bridget who's next to Druxy, but nearby is Clint Walker, Diane Baker, Millie Perkins, Barry Bostwick, etc. Cancellations include Joe Turkel, Connie Francis, and Dolores Hart. There are only thirty-seven of us, which means we could actually make some sales here.

Bruce, most excellent vibes and xylophones for a safe, secure, and on-time flight!
Jane, what were you doing up at 2:00 a.m.?
I know!!!
-
I didn't go to work today. I didn't even want to get out of bed. I really just wanted to bury my head under the covers. But I finally did get up; and, as usual, reading all the notes of encouragment and good vibes from all of you has helped me feel better.
Thank you to one and all!
I'm glad they have helped.

So, let's talk about this dumbass MD and his assistant you saw yesterday. Clearly he has no bedside manner, no persanl or personnel skills, and your own personal MD knows you need immediate help. Is there someone else you can see besides this fool?
I keep running the events of yesterday thru my head. They acted like I had lied to them before about having had previous back surgery. I know what I wrote on the forms when I first came in to the office, and I remember discussing the fact that I had two back surgeries three days apart (one thru the back and one thru the front). Or maybe, because they weren't going to get all the insurance money from surgery, they just washed their hands of me.
Not surprisingly, the surgeon's office had not sent any information to my doctor regarding my appointments or my CAT scan results. We had to send off a Release of Information to the surgeon's office, because my doctor said that there was no way they would send him the info without that in place. So, we are at the moment, at a standstill.
Sigh.

Please tell Clint that Keith & I have been watching reruns of CHEYENNE every night. Oh, and I still have my autographed photo of him ;)

Doug, did I miss the story of how you found us here at HHW? Did you know someone at this site, are you just a fan of BK, or are you stalking Guy Haines? Enquiring minds want to know.
Difficult to remember. I think I may have accidentally stumbled across the site in the dark. I was lurking around for a while and then bk suggested that rather than lurk around in the gloom, I should come inside.
I'm very glad you came inside. :)

My brain seems to have dried up on me this week. Did I remember to tell everyone that I started the application process for Social Security Disability?
Yes. Are you getting somewhere with it? What about work approving you working from home?

Until we get our positions moved from the control of the local offices to Headquarters, there will be no working from home. Union & management will not meet to discuss the transfer until, at least, the end of October.

Is anyone going to see PHANTOM 25TH during the next week?
-
Now ask me how I really feel.
I think I can answer that question
Ask me how do I feel
Ask me now that we're cosy and clinging
Well sir, all I can say, is if I were a bell I'd be ringing!
From the moment we kissed tonight
That's the way I've just gotta behave
Boy, if I were a lamp I'd light
And If I were a banner I'd wave!
Ask me how do I feel, little me with my quiet upbringing
Well sir, all I can say is if gate I'd be swinging!
And if I were a watch I'd start popping my springs!
Or if I were a bell I'd go ding dong, ding dong ding!
Ask me how do I feel from this chemistry lesson I'm learning.
Well sir, all I can say is if I were a bridge I'd be burning!
Yes, I knew my moral would crack
From the wonderful way that you looked!
Boy, if I were a duck I'd quack!
Or if I were a goose I'd be cooked!
Ask me how do I feel, ask me now that we're fondly caressing
Well, if I were a salad I know I'd be splashing my dressing
Ask me how to describe this whole beautiful thing
Well, if I were a bell I'd go ding dong, ding dong ding!
-
Oh, boy - wi-fi...
Great to see you back with us.

Michael S, are you still in Montreal?
-
Thank you DR's TCB & Laura.
-
Ginny, I have a sister who lives near Nuremburg. Great area. Wish I were headed back there soon.
DR John G - unfortunately, we will be in Nuremburg only long enough to get from the train station to where our boat is docked. If our trains are on time, we'll be fine; if we have any major delays, we may have to call your sister for a ride to the next stop on the cruise!
That's OK. She doesn't speak any English, so it's doubtful that she could be of any assistance.
-
Michael S, are you still in Montreal?
Yes I am. I am leaving Sunday morning

Friday morning greetings! Today, Richard and I are helping at the registration table for the Middfest business luncheon. We have to pick up the centerpieces at the florist and deliver them to the hotel in the Cincinnati 'burbs where the event takes place. We then have to greet people, give them their name tags, and direct them to their assigned tables. Richard also has to prompt the hotel staff to turn off the Peruvian music when it's time to begin the formalities. For lunch we're having Pollo de Antichucos.
Since there will be Peruvian music playing, I am assuming that the hotel is located in Lima.
LOL, you'd think so, DR TCB. No, the hotel's in the Cincinnati 'burbs. The Peruvian city is Lee-mah; the one in Ohio is Ly-mah. "Lee-mah, Ly-mah, let's call the whole thing off..."
I love Lee-mah beans!
Do you all remember the wonderful Miss Manners? My two favorite dictates on taste from her were these, and I'm not quoting her accurately:
Q: When is a Vase a Vahs?
A: When it's filled with dahzies.
Q: A gay couple has moved into the neighborhood and it's upsetting everyone. What can we do to improve the quality of the neighborhood?
A: You could move.
Roger Ebert had a variation of that latter bit in a review today of "Machine Gun Preacher." Here it is:
The sight of Sam Childers with his machine gun and his ammo belt reminds me of the night at O'Rourke's when a guy flashed a handgun for my friend McHugh.
"Why are you sportin' that pistol?" he asked.
"John," the guy said, "I live in a dangerous neighborhood."
McHugh replied: "It would be safer if you moved."

Sounds as attentive as my doctor. That's why I'm going to see a new one in a couple of weeks.

~~~~~VIBES OF CONDOLENCE TO YOU AND HIS FAMILY AND FRIENDS~~~~~
-
Well, I'm off shortly for a belated birthday dinner with friends, one of whom had his birthday last night. I've eaten out three times in the last three days and I hope this is better than either of those two meals.
The first, takeout on my birthday, was inedible Mexican seafood. The butter garlic octopus was like erasers with no trace of butter or garlic. An empanada had a sour taste, bitter taste, as if vinegar had been dumped on it. The rest was worse.
Then last night at a steak house, the steak had no flavor, the fried shrimp tasted as if they had been cooked in rancid oil and a friend's chicken-fried chicken tasted as if it had been dipped in Lemon Joy dishwashing liquid. We've been calling it Lemon Joy Chicken all day.
But tonight it's a Brazilian steakhouse, men in gaucho outfits bearing skewers of meat. Should be good. Boy, do I hope it's good.
-
I don't do movie theaters, so I guess I won't see the Phantom show -- hopefully it will be released on video some day.
-
I like lamb shanks in the evening or any time of day.
Me too.
*I also like veal shanks like the Osso Buco at Becco (http://becco-nyc.com) in NYC. Truly one of my favorite dishes all around.

There was a very touching scene at the start of the Texas Rangers / Tampa Bay playoff game this afternoon. At a Rangers game back in July, a father had fallen to his death trying to catch a ball for his son that was tossed from the field by the boy's idol Josh Hamilton. Today the son, accompanied by his mother, threw out the first pitch to Josh Hamilton. It was a very touching moment.

Not the news you wanted, I know. Sorry to hear that.
Thanks. Honestly, it is what I expected. I'm glad they found him. The biggest shock is where he was found, in the opposite direction expected.
-
DR Jane, so sorry about your friend, but at least the family has an answer. Maybe they won't know why he was where he was, but he isn't lost anymore. I think having no idea would be horrible

VIBES TO TCB~~~~~~
-
Today I switched from Qwest to Cableone for my phone. I was very surprised to discover that the reception is much clearer. I guess it's the log that's still hanging from the phone wire in front of my house.
-
I really don't notice that the cable is faster, but I'm on wireless. I'll have to plug in the lap top and see what happens. I couldn't put the modem and router by the desktop because there's no phone jack there, so...I either have to use a USB wireless card for internet or just use my laptop for internet. I have a wireless card at teh office, so I'll probably keep it handy, but don't know that I'll use it.
-
Had a nice dinner with Bridget, Druxy, and Mark Rothman - we're being friendly because who has time at this point in life to not be friendly - it's a waste of energy and I'm not having any more of that - friendly is better.
-
Checked out the dealer room - lots of 'em will be there tomorrow - I only knew a couple tonight - hoping I know some tomorrow, too. Then I set my table up and they locked up that room good and tight. Then I did five miles on the treadmill - difficult but necessary after the dinner I had - medium-size Caesar salad with chicken and a side of mac and cheese that I shared. For dessert a scoop or raspberry sorbet.
-
So sorry that had such a sad outcome, Jane.
-
I am very pleased to see September come to a close. I worked like crazy this month. It paid off and Edith and I got a lot accomplished and we were really working well as a team the whole month, but it was very stressful. With the exception of one big hearing that will only last one day, October will be much calmer. Still a lot of work to do, but at least the stress level has been turned down a little. In October Edith will be taking about 10 days vacation to go to her brother's wedding and I'll be going to a seminar in Chicago the same week. It will be a bit of rest after a good but crazy month
-
The weather is going to be beautiful here tomorrow. I'm thinking that I'll go for a drive and take some photos for DR Laura. Or, i could send some real leaves
-
Oh, yes! Autumn photos, please!
My sister was laughing at how low-maintenance I was when I visited her in the fall one year. I was so happy just picking up leaves in her yard and pressing them in magazines.
-
So, they are telling us that we will be getting some rain tomorrow. I have given up hoping for rain.
