And the word of the day is: GNOMIST!

Paul Francis Webster and Sammy Fain
Great report from KRITZERLAND....and lovely photos.
I am awaiting the call from the repair shop.....estimate right now is $400.
We shall see. I ALMOST made it through the whole show without car trouble!
Good morning, all! I am under the weather this morning, so I postponed therapy to tomorrow; I must get to my 1:00 appointment with the back specialist no matter what.
Hopefully, before I leave, my super will have shown up and finished the ceiling.
Maybe I'll flap my arms and fly to the moon.
I like Ginny's theme.
And I am home from Dr Vong's office. I go back on July 2. He had no answers, just continue the physical therapy and tell my dermatologist next week about several issues he has.Vibes for employment and pain relief, my friend.
I need a job.
Back from a quick overnight trip to return the mother-in-law home after the family wedding this past weekend. All is well.
Topic of the Day (again):
How about Hal Prince -- Part II? Michael Sterling mentioned that there were soooo many shows you couldn't include in the last one because there's simply too many. You could replace 'Possibilities' from
'It's a Bird, It's a Plane...' with 'Ooh, Do You Love You?', another song sung by a single person while someone else just stands there and gets offended. It's a very funny song, if done right.
It's a bright clear day in Oakland CA with gnomist at all!

Good thing you kept the receipt.
Hello, DR Jeanne.
~ ~ ~ CONTINUED GOOD HEALTH VIBES ~ ~ ~ for you!!!
Got back to town; had lunch with a few friends. Now preparing to go to another friend's home for dinner.
Just a typical Monday. I am such a social butterfly. :)
Feel better, TCB and Elmore. You are two of my favorite gentlemen, and I don't like that you are in pain. :-(
Gee, I hope Jane comes here and posts her pastry photographs, too - would be a crying shame to only share them on Facebook where they are not seen by nearly as many as here. Also, one of her friends posted about the pastry and from whence it came: Do they make gluten-free? What is this with gluten-free? Just another irritating fad that will be forgotten in six months to a year. I do understand that for some it is a real thing, but the other 90% who've jumped on that bandwagon are doing it just because it's a fad. You mark my words when the gluten-free business is gone a year from now. The best part is when these faddists say "Oh, I feel so much better eating gluten-free." Sure you do. Until the next craze. Like people who used to do Atkins - "I feel so much better doing Atkins." Sure you do. I'm here to tell you as someone who was stupid enough to try Atkins, I felt soooo much worse.
And I am home from Dr Vong's office. I go back on July 2. He had no answers, just continue the physical therapy and tell my dermatologist next week about several issues he has.
I need a job.
Well, at least they can't say that we didn't reach page 2.
Feel better, TCB and Elmore. You are two of my favorite gentlemen, and I don't like that you are in pain. :-(
Thanks, Laura. I am feeling better today.
I'm just going to say: Page two? Really? I should think that better change to page five very soon or there's no telling what will happen, and I mean that in the nicest way. But it's six-thirty in the evening East Coast time and it's not a holiday that I know of.

Ginny, I can sooooo relate to your shredding and tossing! I did so much of it prior to leaving the East Coast--and I still have too much. I had a lot of business files, handouts from various professional seminars, that held a lot more nostalgia than I would have expected. I was involved with artificial intelligence at one point and, for some reason, just had real attachment to those files. In any case, I find it a time-consuming task to sort through it all, and I burn out on it rather quickly. I hope it's easier for you.

Still no word from Dan M? No one has his e-mail address?
My condolences to DR Cillaliz and her family. I'm glad, though, that Bob was in hospice, as I feel it's a gentler, more civilized approach.
Amy, I like your ideas, especially Yip Harburg.

Remember, Dan M. does not have a dedicated Internet connection. He's dependent on free wi-fi so that could be why he hasn't been on. I know Internet is spotty at the place where he lives. Even if you send him an e-mail or a PM if he can't log on, he can't see the message.
Jane, the woman who removed the post also contacted me via PM and was really so odd. I told her that in addition to being gluten-free she seemed to be humor-free and that you, the person whose Facebook page it was, knew my sense of humor better than anyone, having been exposed to it since you were fifteen. That kind of shut her up and then she made a stab at an apology and then I made nice with her.

You forgot we can't post photos here from Keith's phone. FB handles a larger size and won't accept them. You should have transferred it.
Funny is the person who asked apparently removed her question and all that is left is your rant about gluten ;D
Annoying is the person who got upset I ate such unhealthy crap and would not shut up about it. I've seen other posts on FB get hijacked but this is a first for me. I didn't dare mention the incredible cannoli I had for dessert that night :)
DR Jennifer do you have a bell on your bike? Our bike path is also for walkers, though the bikers seem to think it belongs to them. I find it helpful when they ring, even better than calling out, as they approach.
This morning I received a call from the car salesman, asking if I'd made a decision on the BMW. I told him I wouldn't be buying it. He then said, "If I see another A3 [the Audi I was interested in] should I call you?" Yes. I couldn't resist. I then added, "It's such a shame about the Audi. It would have been the purrrrrfect car for me." I doubt that this salesman has anything to do with whatever bait-and-switch may (or may not) be going on, but I had to get a little dig in. If the car isn't available they ought to take it off their website.
Also, no Bruce/Kritzerland doesn't sell downloads. I remember Bruce saying that's not happening right now. He wants to sell physical CDs.
LOL Did you notice Ericka trying to defend me from the health nut? It was sweet of her :) If I ever reduce my number of friends he will be on the list, not because he is a health nut-I get that he is correct and I shouldn't eat that crap-but he annoys me in general-lol
I am going to watch Masterchef now.
Thank you for fluttering by.

There are days, my dear friend, I feel we are in either the same boat or the same shipping line. I hope it's not the TITANIC or LUSITANIA.

Duh! It's like a digital Show Music division of a record store. My friend Andy Propst, who's behind this, wrote:
On some levels, it feels to me like it might serve the purpose of letting a new

I'd read that it'll become the highest minimum wage in the country. But it will eventually go up to $15/hour over several years, not all at once.
