Well, you've read the notes, the notes attacked the subject matter of the Day Runners, and now it is time for you to post until the attacking cows come home.

Fascinating topic of the day.  It's fun to think about.  Of the choices that were under my control, what comes to mind is had I gone to a different out-of-town law school in a different town, or even a different coast, it would have meant a whole different path in life.

Happy St. Patrick's Day to everyone!

So, here's an Irish song from the University College Dublin.  This chorus was the basis of the chorus for my recording of DEAREST ENEMY in 2012.

Around 8:00 I will head for the bus.  My appointment with an orthopedist is at 9:30, and I like to be early.  I hope with the holiday traffic that it isn't grisly getting there.  Then I will head to City Center to visit with Joshie before I head home.

The pilot NO HONESTLY was written and produced by Bob Shayne (no relation) and was based on a BBC TV series of the same name and its follow up Yes Honestly. The source I have does not list a cast just a brief synopsis of the plot.

I had Elmore dreams last night. A friend recently asked me to read a novel she'd written, and I offered her some thoughts and ideas to tighten yesterday. It's a thriller about a woman who's fleeing from an abusive husband who refuses to let her go. I kept dreaming about the ending where the husband gets his comeuppance. It was sometimes satisfying, sometimes not. But the scene kept playing over and over again.

TOD

I can look back at my many forks in the road, and no matter which alternatives I play with in my head, everything from that point changes in a big way.  It's tempting to wish I'd done one thing or another differently, but the uncertainty of ANY hypothetical decision keeps me reasonably content with where I am.  I still believe I have choices to make, and I want to concentrate my energies on those.

Note to self: Never go far from home ob March 17.  The trip to 23rd Street was fine. The trip from 23rd and Sixth Avenue yo 55th Street around 10:00 took an hour because of parade traffic and all the people dressed in green, many of whom were drunk.  When I left City Center at 12:45, I decided to take the 104 bis hom e on 8th Avenue.  I waited 45 minutes for the damned bus to arrive because of traffic backups.

I am home and really pissed: you'd think after how many effen years of this parade, the MYA and NYPD could have some plans about the traffic mess.

TOD:  I have often wondered about a few moves I've made throughout my life.

One revolves around what my life might have been had I not been forced into the military by the draft.  Add to that the fact that I joined the Navy prior to my reporting for an induction physical.  The Army was drafting me.  I flunked the physical, but the Navy decided it would have me anyway.

Another concerns my retirement from the Navy.  What would my life be like if I had returned to South Carolina upon retirement rather than driving to Oakland? 

Will never know.  But I am content.

Today in the mail I received my sweatshirt from Run Free Canine Cancer Fundraising.  Two woman I am friends with do this, both having lost Bernese Mountain Dogs to cancer as we lost Echo and Sherlock.  One designs the shirt, the other does the rest of the work.  All the profits are donated.  Basically through friends on FB they raise a good bit of money.

As the shirts have been received we have been requested to send photos of ourselves wearing them.  Though the wind was blowing my hair all over the place, the setting of the river and Mt. Hood behind me is rather nice.

I was one of the first people to know eBay was going public - the stock was something like 17 a share.  I had a lot of cash in the bank at the time it happened.  Had I known anything about the stock market I would have bought 200 shares.  Then, if I'd had guts I would have not sold it the day the stock doubled.  In two weeks the price had risen over two hundred dollars and then up beyond that.  I probably would have been a millionaire if I'd bought and sold at the right time.

Whilst doing these long Day Runner notes, I have to write them really early because it takes about ninety minutes to do them.

Don't ask me how I got interested in those shows.

TOD:  I have often wondered about a few moves I've made throughout my life.

One revolves around what my life might have been had I not been forced into the military by the draft.  Add to that the fact that I joined the Navy prior to my reporting for an induction physical.  The Army was drafting me.  I flunked the physical, but the Navy decided it would have me anyway.

Another concerns my retirement from the Navy.  What would my life be like if I had returned to South Carolina upon retirement rather than driving to Oakland.



Then you might not have met us!

I tried watching GREY'S ANATOMY a couple of times.

I've been watching this since the beginning.  I used to watch "Scandal," but I just got tired of it.

I'm still watching "How to Get Away with Murder," but it's starting to get a little over-the-top for me.  We'll see how long I last with it.

THE FLASH, ARROW, and GRIMM.

I wanted to watch THE FLASH and ARROW, but I didn't find out when they started until well into their seasons, and I never paid attention to which channels they were on.  I'm not one to go back to the beginning of a series and ketchup.  If I miss it, I usually won't watch it at all.   But that's just me.

Oh, no...Emmy-winning 'L.A. Law' actor Larry Drake dies at 66 (http://my.xfinity.com/articles/entertainment/20160318/US--Obit-Larry.Drake/). :(

Quote
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Larry Drake, who earned back-to-back Emmy Awards for his sensitive portrayal of mentally challenged character Benny Stulwicz in "L.A. Law," has died. He was 66.

Drake's body was found Thursday in his Los Angeles-area home by a friend, said Charles Edward Pogue, himself a longtime friend and collaborator of Drake's.

The cause of death was not immediately known. The heavyset actor had suffered from health issues related to his weight, said Steven Siebert, Drake's manager for 30 years....

I'm about four episodes behind, so I have no idea what happened tonight, other than it's not the end of the season.  According to IMDb, it doesn't end until April 21 (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0413573/episodes?season=12).
