And the word of the day is: COMPENDIOUS!
Mikey!! The happiest of wishes to one of the nicest guys on the planet (Earth, X, Mars, Pluto -- any of 'em) on your U-Day!
I guess I must be one of those older people who have things on DVD and are not about to invest in yet another format that'll only last a few years before thenxt new thing comes along.

My feelings exactly!
Dang! This one-hour limit on long-in time drives me nuts. Just wrote a long-winded post to DR Jeanne (Miss K longwinded?! Never! Hah-hahaha!) -- and hit the post button and had one of those "don't ya hate it when it happens moment" -- shoot, yeah! -- got a you can so longer post type message (dang and shoot are my family friendly edits, I think you know what I really said, and in my strongest Texanese).
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Happy Birthday, Little Mikey !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He's certainly been E & T lately! Do we know for certain that he isn't in jail? The ER? Some of those old men are mean.
I am very surprised at Mikey's absence. I was certain the offnsive birthday card I sent him would provoke a response.
I got home from Toyland with no energy, but I've got work to accomplish, so I am off to work.
I saw on Fox News that carhops, with waitresses on roller skates, are making a comeback. I don't know if this is a good idea. Shouldn't people be encouraged to get out of their cars and get more exercise?

Mike said that he has a lot of transcribing that needs to be done, and when he comes here he gets sidetracked. He will return.

Is "transcribing" a euphemism for "shiney objects"?
What is the matter with these Russian protesters? Thousands of them gather waving signs and I can't figure out a single thing that is written on the signs. Obviously, poor planning!

Russians are notorious for their handwriting. I, for one, can NEVER read anything they write!

But this IS a way for people to get more exercise! The carhops and wait staff, anyway.
Hi, Tom.
BTW, are you eligible for some assistance at home now that you need a wheelchair?

I was very eager to try Sonic, because they offer several types of hot dogs. They have been open in Tacoma for almost two years now, and I still haven't stopped.
If you get approved, when would that start?

It would start as soon as it is approved, and even would go back to the the protected date that I filed. But it could take anywhere from six months to two years.
Doug R, did you do your Christmas cards today?
Hello from New York, New York! First, thanks to all for the travel vibes. I'm at my hotel on the East Side, so I have to leave soon for Hugh Jackman.
Tomorrow is really just playing easy Christmas carols for an event while wearing red and green and sant hats. Yup, we're the band they pull out of the woodwork to do these silly things. It's for the Little Yellow Dog auction. Cute yellow lab this year. It's all for charity so the dog usually goes for thousands of dollars.
Okay, I went to the TKTS booth. I was undecided but decided on On A Clear Day. Oftentimes I'll leave the booth and then wonder if I did the right thing. This was no exception. After all, the early word is that the show is a turkey.

I am sure you don't mind leaving early for Mr. Jackman

As a matter of fact, TCB, I'm going to have to go now. More later !
We just saw the tour of "Irving Berlin's White Christmas." If it's Berlin, you know it's good.
I was appalled -- yes, appalled -- at the amount of trash left behind in the theater.
Second load of laundry is in the dryer. Third load of laundry is in the washer. The Cycle of Life. ::)

I hope the skunk smell wasn't on your carry-on bag.

There was a hint of it on my carry-on bag, my computer bag and my checked baggage. It wasn't that "evident" - I had to get close to smell any odor. I guess I'm just a bit hyper-sensitive to it right now. Thankfully, the Febreze seems to be doing the trick.
I am sure tired, especially considering that I haven't done anything all day. I didn't sleep well last ngiht.
Good grief, what a crappy night of television. I think I may just read.
I keep seeing the previews on television for the American Girl With the Dragon Tattoo......

Not doing anything is sometimes more tiring than being active, especially if you didn't sleep the night before.
SLEEP WELL TONIGHT & HAVE A BETTER TOMORROW!!!!
It's been an interesting morning here at LGB. I got selected for secondary screening - just the hand swab. The lady in front of me had a full bottle of wine in her carry-on... And they didn't make her throw it out. -Did the liquids restriction get lifted? One family almost missed their flight since they weren't responding to the "Final Boarding" pages. And one woman did miss her flight by just a minute - watching her plead with the gate agent was kind of heartbreaking.
Otherwise... It's been a good morning for me so far. The airport shuttle arrived a few minutes early, and the other passenger that was picked up en route was also heading to Long Beach.

Yesterday was a perfect last day in L.A. for me. Lunch with bk at Musso & Frank, complete with a guest appearance by Richard Sherman, was lively and sparkling. -And my "side" of Lyonnaise Potatoes was huge.
My friend's birthday party in Santa Monica was great too. We just grabbed some tables at the Loews Hotel there on the beach, watched the sunset, drank some cocktails, ate some surprisingly good hotel happy hour food, and devoured some great cupcakes. The hotel's bar area was a bit short-staffed due to a private event in the main dining room, but the manager managed to take care of us, and he even comped the valet parking for some of us. It was a nice gathering of people, about 12 of us, and there were a few other friends from Richmond too.
No Stephen King fans?
One of the things I used to love about the Internet was that you could use the Reverse Phone Directory to find out who was calling you, but not leaving a message. Now you havve to pay $1.99 per number.
Google the number, sometimes that works.

Well, Google told me what city the phone number was located, but they still wanted money to give me a name.

That was last year....I'm in the middle of the first row of the band http://www.siouxcityjournal.com/news/local/explorers-buy-little-yellow-dog-for-record-price/article_c4d8923e-2368-11e1-86fe-001871e3ce6c.html?mode=image (http://www.siouxcityjournal.com/news/local/explorers-buy-little-yellow-dog-for-record-price/article_c4d8923e-2368-11e1-86fe-001871e3ce6c.html?mode=image)
In the middle of the auction, which is telecast live on the radio, a man had a heartattack. He was on the upper level, so I didn't see him. The auctioneer, the dog and his handler were up there collecting donations when he suddenly said "Is there a doctor in the house, we have someone who is having a heart attack" Luckily, this was a big roller fund raiser so two doctors and a nurse took off up the escalator and the paramedics were right behind them. I heard the gentleman is recovering, but it was a strange moment. One of those....."We're going to take a break here....let's here some music from the band" moments

How is your mouth doing, DR Druxy?
The painting comes with the live dog.
I just found out tonight that I won a kindle! Yeah!
This blog that i read daily ... well the lady who runs out got a kindle fire. And she decided to give away her gently used kindle. It looks like it's a basic 6 inch screen with no 3G (not sure what that means). But the pic she posted has a keyboard (not sure what you do with that). This lady is very reliable (she's sent me stuff before). So i know she will send it (she's already de-registered it).
The only crazy thing is that i have a funny feeling my mom bought me a kindle. The crazier part is that i think she did this today. Not sure what to do. She knows i don't like surprises. So not sure why she wouldn't tell me. But she did say she had to go to Bureau En Gros this morning and that she couldn't tell me why.
I guess i will have to ask her tomorrow!

A lot better than I thought it would be.
I'm just wonder what to do with that big hole in my upper mouth.
Maybe I'll use it for storage.
::)

How do they guarantee the dog gets a good home? $45,000.00 wow!
OMG the smell of skunk would drive me mad.
And i wouldn't be able to put anything perfumy to de-smell my stuff.
The funds were raised for a group that has a goal to insure that every child has a Christmas gift. Their goal was $125,000, but I"m sure they raised more than that. People were putting $5000 and $10,000 checks into the hat when it was passed.
The Little Yellow Dog Auction is part of it. While I'm not a fan of auctioning live dogs, this one is really different. The least I know of that was paid was last year in the middle of a blizzard and that was $10,000. This year was a record. The dogs have always gone to very good homes. At the dinner afterward (the band was included since we participated) Stoney was already being cuddled, played with by the young girls and was being sneaked pieces of filet mignon by one of the men. He's going to be a very happy dog. My guess is he may also get to play at the baseball field with the Explorers.

Congratulations on your win!
If your mother did get you a kindle is it for Chanukah? If so do you expect to know what gifts you will receive beforehand?
DR Jane, anyhow i'll ask her tomorrow why she was at Bureau en Gros (Staples) and go from there.

Oh... The airport shuttle service just refunded my fee for the "on-time guarantee pick up" that was not on-time. :)
