I guess some people are lucky to have toboggans. I know people who can't even afford oneboggan.One boggan, toboggan, three boggan, four...
To interfere with the progress of. Also used with "down":Thus, you can have the phrase "to bog," meaning to slow progress, and you can have "bogging" (the more proper spelling), meaning "slowing progress", but you cannot have "to bogging," which would mean "to slowing progress," which just doesn't make sense.
encumber, hinder, hold back, impede, obstruct.
I agree with all of the posts about last night's Medium. I thought it was a really great episode and I just knew we were going to see that character again!
I still haven't quite gotten to the end of MAN OF LA MANCHA, so I have that to finish today. Then, on to another DVD.
Ooh, enchiladas suizas - yes, that's a great comfort food. That was one of my addictions for a few months, especially the ones at Mariachi Mexico Restaurant on 10th Avenue near 51st Street.
Vixmom, your list inspired me. I would like to add tuna noodle casserole to my list of comfort foods.
More comfort foods:
Mashed potatoes with butter
Tapioca pudding with pure maple syrup (I call it poor man's flan ;))
Toast with butter dunked in hot chocolate with evaporated milk
Really good bread with butter and a diet Pepsi (I'm just weird, aren't I?)
Bagels with peanut butter and a glass of milk
;D
Funny how tomato soup and grilled cheese is on almost everyone's list!
It may have to become the official meal of the HHW! :D
I make a really good grilled cheese sandwich. ;D
Whhaaaaat? A non-fiction book that's really fiction? I can't believe it!!!!I know, I guess I shouldn't be so shocked. :o

I do believe that I am within 40 posts of God status.

Now is the time to delve into some deep personel introspection and to ponder upon the effect you will shortly have on the world around you in your new role. An evening of silent contemplation is also advisable. Self flagellation is not necessary (unless you enjoy that kind of thing.) And you must have a bowl of really good chocolate ice cream.
He dies at the end.
the author was writing about his OWN life. You'd think think that he would get at least some of the details right, or maybe close...
Comfort food:
yellow cake with chocolate icing
...the chocolate candy called Turtles
chocolate ice cream.
Also got THE AVIATOR 2-Disc Special Widescreen Edition....ALL that for about $7 including shipping.
While I've never seen the movie of "Man of La Mancha", the musical always leaves me wondering... does he die? Or is he released?
I wanted to explain something that George commented on after listening to the Radio Wales program.
We were talking about Chita Rivera and then Beverley played America from West Side Story but she played the soundtrack w/Rita Moreno, not Chita. I was surprised as well but I then found out that the library does not have as many cast recordings as one would hope. The only West Side Story CD Beverley had was the soundtrack. I had wondered in the past when she played certain shows why those tracks were chosen, for instance, when she plays Trouble from Music Man, she always plays the Van Johnson London recording (not very good IMHO). It's because the library doesn't have a copy of the Broadway cast. After trolling in HMV and other record stores in Ireland, Cardiff and London, I realize that cast recordings are hard to get. You can shop at Dress Circle but otherwise the pickings are slim. We also don't see the number of used CD stores that we have in the U.S. Stores like Academy in New York (and Footlight before the physical store closed) and Cheapo in Minneapolis have been the source of much of my collection. I just don't see those kind of stores in Europe. Maybe I should move there and open a store. I can be a successful entrepreneur. Yeah, that's the ticket :-)

....I liked how her older daughter could see the villain and how that played into the story....
Oh, DRJANE - are you ever right....if you fall in love with a Cartwright, make sure your insurance is paid up!
DR JMK - if nothing else, The Church of Frances Farmer will have great singing and dancing.
Don't forget to add your name to the directory!
INSTANT absolution!
Hmmm...statistically speaking, one of them Cartwright boys might have been gay.

My money is on Adam who ran away to Australia never to be heard from again (except for a couple of letters). ::)
JR, we are more brethren-ly than ever. I have just been ordained in ULC as well. Anyone wanna get married?
And according to Mr. Cal Bolder, one of them was!
I thought it was interesting that the older daughter didn't know/couldn't tell that he wasn't who she thought he was!
The entire psychic phenomenon is very new to her. She's experimented with predicting the future, but I'm not sure she's had these kinds of encounters before. Even Allison struggles with handling them, so it didn't surprise me that the daughter was taken in. And, of course, the director let the audience in on the charade by show her talking to no one.
New meaning to the term couch potato department:
Woman Dead Since 2003 Left Sitting at TV
By TERRY KINNEY, AP
CINCINNATI (Jan. 10) - The mummified body of a woman who didn't want to be buried was found in a chair in front of her television set 2 1/2 years after her death, authorities said.
And according to Mr. Cal Bolder, one of them was!
Matt... I fell asleep before Medium started.. any chance you could send me a copy? If its too much trouble, please don't bother - I am sure to catch the rerun in a couple of months :D
Well now we know why TomofOz keeps shouting "Ride 'em, cowboy." (Sorry, couldn't resist).
Wow! All hell is breaking loose in the media today about the author of "A Million Little Pieces." I think I'll write a sensational memoir and publish it.

See the difference between politicians then and now? At least the Governor of Texas back then had truth in advertising--his first name was Price. :)
DR FJL they showed a bit of the POTO gathering last night, but I didn't see ya... It was on THE NEWS!!!
Hope all those cell phones were turned off during the show!
Today, the thought of a margarita does nothing for me, but macaroni and cheese sounds like heaven! By Friday, I shall be ready for one or two, I do hope, and DR TPunk, we have to do our movie on Saturday or Sunday afternoon. I'll even buy your ticket for your birthday!
I thought it was interesting that the older daughter didn't know/couldn't tell that he wasn't who she thought he was!
You know what, MBarnum? You and Pernell Roberts look like brothers!
...Currently watching the rebroadcast of the Special Edition of "The Biggest Loser" on Bravo...
Just what I need to watch tonight... While a two-pound box of See's is sitting in front of me.
::)
;D
Oooh, I wanted to see that. I've been using Celebrity Fit Club as my diet motivation.

JMK and Betsy, thanks for the chard recipe. :P
Cillaliz and elmore, so glad your are feeling better. :D
DRJoseS, did you get my mail?
, but I love Haagen-Dasz Coffee Ice Cream even more.
Jose, good still have a job in NY in a month vibes.
I just read your sad posts and wish I could give you a big hug.
I am home again and it irritates me. I finally went to the dr this morning (I hate being sick and hate going to the doctor even more) she gave me some antibiotics, but we'll see if they work. I did work all day yesterday and went in for a couple hours today, but once again I was told that I have sick leave for a reason, and I really should go home.
So now I will make one of my favorite comfort foods, chicken and noodles. I vary it every time depending on what I have in the house. But I do love it.
NOW THAT IS COMFORT FOOD. :D
Oh, DRJANE - are you ever right....if you fall in love with a Cartwright, make sure your insurance is paid up!
TPunk just the other day I almost purchased A MILLION LITTLE PIECES having heard so much about it. I saw the headline today and was glad I had decided to wait.
My favorite clickable on their site was the "Instant Absolution from Sin." What about "instant absolution from guilt"? :) :)
Does she even know for sure that she is psychic? I don't know that they've ever discussed it directly with her.
Hmmm...statistically speaking, one of them Cartwright boys might have been gay.
I still feel queasy but I have to go into the office tomorrow to play in Toyland for a bit.
DRJoseS, did you get my mail?
No, with my luck, it would have been Hop Sing!
I have no doubt he knew how to blow a horn, JRand55.
Guess what? Pernell Roberts got his start at the Arena Stage in D.C. during the early 50's.....
DRJOSE there must be some photos of Mr Roberts in THE GLASS MENAGERIE around there somewhere.
I forgot to say that one of my all-time favorite album covers is for the Norrie Paramour album, Autumn. Maybe someone can find an image of it.
