Well, you've read the notes, the notes were written in April and were foolish, and now it is time for you to post until the foolish cows come home.
-
And the word of the day is: BOON!
-
Good morning to all.
Here is a link to Dionne Warwick singing April Fools

Morning all.
That is all.

Thanks DR Jane re: the movie comments. Even though the movies are free I still try to not take things that I think i will dislike.
-
Happy April Fool's Day.
-
Good morning, all! I will shortly be out the door to Toyland to accomplish what I did not yesterday. I hope to be back by noon. I need to scan and email a couple of choral fixes to the DEAREST ENEMY team and wrap this show up.
I've managed to watch nothing this weekend, so perhaps when I return I'll watch a DVD. There are a couple of films I wany to see, but my movie theatre score is batting zero so far for 2012.

DRs Cillaliz and Vixmom. Both of your postings seem like you do a lot!
-
Wow - everyone wrote A LOT yesterday. Fun reading everything!
-
DR JENNIFER of the movies on your list, I liked J EDGAR, REAL STEEL, and THE GREEN LANTERN best.....just LIKED.

Watching THE AWFUL TRUTH on TCM.
Vibes for MR BK and the GANG for the sold out show tonight!

Getting done vibes for DR ELMORE.
DR VIXMOM I hope you enjoy the Convention today!!!

Here is our new REVAMPED Theatre Website......using the BLOG system to post on the front page creates some interesting SPACING issues, but I guess I will just have to live with it.
I like the set up a lot - but I fear that the "designer" will disappear into the ether sooner or later and leave me with a website and no tools to really keep it current. Time will Tell.

Hey there!

And as a perfect tie in to EASY LISTENING and THE APRIL FOOLS, the first recording of the Bacharach-David theme song to that film was by none other than Percy Faith, who had a minor AC hit with it.

THE SOUND CHECK SONG by my dear friend, the very talented Harriet Schock (perhaps best known for the Helen Reddy recording of Ain't No Way to Treat a Lady and the Manfred Mann recording of Hollywood Town)

Sunday morning greetings! Fr. Richard excused me from church today after my 3am nosebleed, after which I was unable to go back to sleep until after he left for Lima. I'm sorry to miss Palm Sunday, but I still have that "cobwebby" feeling in my head that lingers after a nosebleed. I think my meds are out of whack and I'm glad to have a previously-scheduled doctor's appointment tomorrow.
-
Good Morning!
-
Vibes for DR GINNY.
-
Thanks, DR JRand - I'm OK, but will probably need a nap sometime today...
-
Hmmmm - I got a First Edition of THE SPANISH GARDENER by A J Cronin at Amazon for only $3 - the dust jacket is chipped - but it is a nice copy.

Feel-better vibes to Ginny!

There are thousands of free books for kindle especially. Even if it's free. You still have to be choosy. If i'm not going to read it then i'm not going to take it just because it's free.

DR Jane, I hope goodreads won't email you every time i put a new book on my to read list. That list is VERY long. :)

No, you must have your goodreads account set to receive what your "friends" read. I do not ever receive updates so i don't think it would matter. Or i would be getting emails every hour. The only way i can see what my friends are reading is to go into the friends section and look.
There is probably something you ticked that said you wanted to be notified.

You also must have your settings to receive what your "friends" are reading. I am sure there is a very simple thing you can do to change this. I know it would drive me crazy. I get enough emails without knowing what everyone else is reading (although i do love to check to see what people are reading.

I"m thinking when we friended each other there is a column that says "follow jennifer's reviews". I wonder if you ticked that column. I have not ticked that column for anybody. Do you only get emails when i've finished a book and reviewed it?

Dr. Ballard has been voicing the same complaint since the Nineties, when RMS Titanic Inc. won the world salvage rights. But the salvage rights only apply to the debris field surrounding the wreckage. The wreck itself has been explored, but left untouched. The only exceptions were a couple of the Russian submersibles that have actually landed on different parts on the wreck itself, and the one submersible (rumored to have been working for James Cameron and his movie) that actually ran into the side of the wreck. This is not fingers in the eye of a painting or shovels in the dirt of a battlefield. This is not even as intrusive as the archaeological digs that are going on in hundreds of sites around the world each year.

Palm/Passion Sunday was fine. We had a colt in the procession. Trying to organize a procession is like trying to herd sheep. It was crazy, but better than last year. Still, so hard to do ritual when most of the people aren't "with" you. Ah well, when you come to church to be "seen", worship usually takes a back seat.

When you tried to sign in on your phone did you not get the password the first time? Regardless of where you tried to access your facebook page. As long as you got the password correct wouldn't you be okay?

I assure you, if I had more than two friends I would not want all of those notifications. I might want them from people I find I read the same books on a regular basis.

;D

I'll be at the book signing. Save a book for me to buy.
April 22nd 8)
A road trip and day of fun in the city ;D.
-
Mega vibes for everyone.
;)

Wish i was at tonight's show. Sounds like it will be a not to be missed show.
But here I am at the beach. The weather is beautiful today.
And up at 4am to get ready to go to work.
:)

Planted some flowers today.
Off to clean the shower.
Vibes for the week ahead.
Night all.
;D

Hi all. I went to church with Thelma and Bill. I guess that's a bit of a April Fool joke on God but since the church is still standing, it's ok. :)
I don't know why DR TCB was having problems with the phone and Facebook. I would sort of understood if the login had been from the Tampa area--that would have been me in some weird way but even then that shouldn't happen because I set the phone back to it's factory settings before I sent it.
I don't know what was going on down the street but we had 3 sheriff cars there. One parked in front of my house.
-
I feel bad that I didn't get anything done this weekend that I planned on doing. I didn't clean up or get the floors mopped or nothing. Sigh. Well there is always next week and weekend.
-
Did I miss something? Did we know in advance that JEWS AND BASEBALL: AN AMERICAN LOVE STORY was going to be shown on PBS?
Gosh, no, TCB; I had no idea. When is it on?
I don't know about your PBS station, but it is on right now in Seattle!
I guess I need to check my station's schedule!
I didn't know that! Fortunately, I bought the DVD. :D

We tried the new Fish & Chips place the other day:

Looks good. I love fish and chips but don't eat enough of it these days.
I almost missed these nice photos.
In the late Sixties, we had a lot of fish and chip places open in the Northwest. Of course. Ivar's chain of restaurants had been a huge part of the Seattle restaurant scene since the early 50s. But we first got Arthur Treacher's, then H. Salt Esquire, and then severeal more than I can't remember right now. Except for Ivar's, they have all closed
Skipper's is still around...I think. About 30 years ago, my dad was the manager of the Skipper's in Kent, and they said that if/when they ever opened one in Lacey (where my parents still live), he'd get to be the manager for that. They did open a Lacey store, but they didn't give him the job. :P He quit.

Jennifer - I thought you had Kobo because you asked about it - I don't know from all these e things. :) I get that stuff from Goodreads all the time. I get to see what a lot of people I don't know are reading.
Yes i did mention it because you asked if you were missing any ereaders. And that is the big one in Canada. But like DR Jane said I have a kindle.
You also must have your settings to receive what your "friends" are reading. I am sure there is a very simple thing you can do to change this. I know it would drive me crazy. I get enough emails without knowing what everyone else is reading (although i do love to check to see what people are reading. I just would not want to receive an email updating every single person on my friends list.
How very strange. And I just received a video showing me what elmore is watching on VHS!
are you blind now?

Just harvested a load of loquats, which I've started to pickle. First major harvest from this tree, which I planted 11 years ago. And I haven't made a dent in what the tree has one it.
Looks like loquat pie and loquat cobbler this week.
what in the world is a loquat?

so day three of the convention was fun - sat in on some Dr Who panels
chatted with Paul McGann who played the 8th Doctor and Daphne Ashbrook who played the companion in the 1996 movie
-
Also chatted with Frazer Hines who was a companion and Colin Spaull who played Mr. Crane in Rise of the Cybermen and The Age of Steel, two episodes from the second series in the new Doctor Who. Colin originally starred in the classic Who series story Revelation of The Daleks. His TV credits include Good Night Sweetheart, Inspector Morse, The Bill, The Last Detective (with Peter Davison), The Murder Game, The Brittas Empire, Down to Earth, Sykes, Casualty, The Doctors, Holby City and The Inbetweeners among others.
-
also had a long chat with Steve Gostelow was the man inside the menace in More Than 30 Years In The Tardis, a documentary celebrating the 30th anniversary of Doctor Who. He worked with costumes and Dalek props, playing a Cyberman and Cybercontroller, a Dalek, then a Red Dalek, and then The Dalek Emperor. He brought several of the actual props used during filming including a Dalek and cyberman head -

I was thinking," DR George would love this!"

I also had a nice chat with Nana Visitor
-
Went to several author panels on Friday night and Saturday - most of them included David Weber- the CON was a little light on "names" this year
We were supposed to haevSylvester McCoy whom I was really looking forward to hearing - we'd met him several times in the late 80's and he was a wonderful speaker as well as very personable one on one but the filming schedule on The Hobbit changed and he'd had to cancel
- but still we were all tired but happy by the end of the CON
-
We are home now and I am soaking my tired feet while waiting forGame of Thrones, series 2 to begin

Befoer I went out this morning I bought a Nook copy of Album produced by...

I have to call the dentist tomorrow though as i broke my left rear molar - I suspect that I am going to lose it now which ticks me off as it cost an arm and a leg for the root canal

I would! Thanks for sharing!

Now this what "Pipe Dream" should sound like. I listened to the original cast twice and I had the voices of all three leads. This is much better.

Who are the performers?
Will Chase and Laura Osnes, then Leslie Uggams.

Really got into cooking today. Started the loquat pickles, then made a Hawaiian Horseradish Salad that would be a good harosset for Passover with apples, celery, walnuts and mayo in addition to the horseradish.
Then I made strawberry-loquat empanadas. I've never made empanadas before, so I hope they came out OK. They're too hot at the moment to pick up.
And for dinner: Low-carb tacos. I used cabbage leaves instead of taco shells and filled them with pork belly, radishes, onions, cilantro from the garden, jalapenos and salsa. Mighty fine. And unlike the empanada, they're on the diet.

DR Jennifer I went to Goodreads & couldn't find anything about email options. I did find several recommendations that looked interesting. I also rated a number of books. I will try to be better about doing so which should improve the quality of suggested books for me to read.

Help!
I tried to sign in to Facebook on my smart phone, but it temporarily blocked my account and then sent me an e-mail saying that someone had tried to log in to my account. When I went into Facebook to say that it was oklay to allow me on the other device, it said the account was accessed from Overland park, Kansas and not Tacoma. Why wuold that be?
When you tried to sign in on your phone did you not get the password the first time? Regardless of where you tried to access your facebook page. As long as you got the password correct wouldn't you be okay?
This is DR Danise's phone, right? Not sure why it would say Kansas. Can you still log in from your computer?
No, I couldn't sign into Facebook on either machine; until I went thru their security system.

Is there another word that is used to describe pork bellies? I don't think I have seen those in the stores here.

I will look around there tomorrow to see if i notice anything. Off thetop of my head the only thing i can think od is that you ticked the "follow reviews" when you became friends.

No. That's what it is. And except for the place I found it, it's often overpriced. .

Starting to watch "Tanner '88" for the first time in ages. I don't know if I can stomach the fact that the political scene is still as inane and insane as it was back then.

Night, all.

Today, I've been watching TV...a lot of TV. I also finally decided to clear some things off my DVD burner. I don't know how much room my DVD burner actually has, but I know how much time I have left: about 6 hours on the XP speed. I still have things on there going all the way back 2008! I just burned a DVD of pop/rock performers on TV talk shows...performers like John Legend, OK Go, Weezer, Maroon 5...just a bunch of totally random songs that I liked. The newest musical clip that I decided to burn is November 2011. This first disc is about 2 hours long, so that's 2 hours cleared off.
Just had to share. :)

And now, to bed.
Good night, all.

Back from an absolutely great show - more in the notes, but it really could not have gone better, with one tiny exception which had nothing to do with the show itself or the sound and lighting, but with the digital grand piano. We're now all going to actively pressure Michael Sterling to get a real piano in there.
