When I rewrite it for the movie I'll  make sure I'm miles from help, push the car to a garage  singlehandedly and sleep with the mechanic for parts and labor, or better yet pull a McGyver and fix it with a pair of pantyhose and a hairpin!!
You could always fix the mechanic with a pair of pantyhose and a hairpin!!

According to the Food Lover's Companion by Sharon T. Herbst, farce is the French word for "stuffing."

Anyone here ever try stuffing a burger with cheese before grilling it?  Delish!

Another stuffing: crab meat in a salmon roulade!  Yum!

I'm not doing a farce tonight, however.  Tonight will be venison steaks, a combo of beets, carrots and onion, and baked potatoes...wait!  I could stuff the potatoes!  Some chopped olives, chopped mushers, capers, garlic, maybe some anchovy paste, mixed together into a tapenade, schmeered into the potatoes...

Someone hold Vixmom back, I've only got enough dinner fixings for two!

Is that Rodzinski at the far right at the table -- with his back to us?  We should have had him write HHW on his back.

Today has been quite a day (and it's not even over yet)!  I was planning on coming into work this morning at 9:30 to help Margo, a coworker/friend, with a project that she's working on.  I wasn't able to get here until noon.  So, we start working (she's helping organize a dinner theater auction for her daughter's high school...where her daughter is playing Maria in The Sound of Music...and fabulously!).  So, we have to print the document that we've worked on and I want to send it through the computer system to the big photocopier/printer.  I don't know how to "install" that printer on my computer, but one of the computer boys is here and he is able to get it working.  We send a test print job (1 copy of the document) and it works!  We send the big print job (75 copies) to the printer and nothing happens!  I go back to my computer and cancel the job from there, try and figure out what's happening on the copyier/printer and think I figure it out.  I send the print job again and it works!  Except that it's taking the wrong paper. :P So we just let it go.  Then Margo adds more of the correct paper to the correct tray and I send another print job for 25 more copies.  It works!  EXCEPT IT THEN JAMS!!  We get the message to clear the paper paths...and after several minutes of trying to figure out how to open the damn thing and which levers to lift and open, we find the jammed paper, close up everything and let it warm back up to continue printing.  It works!  It starts printing again and then IT JAMS AGAIN!  We clear out the paper, close it and it prints...and it jams again!!  We clear it out and it jams three...YES THREE more times!  We finally call the computer guy who is able to clear the print job from the machine itself.  Margo has much, much, much (that three muches) more than 25 copies of the last print job.  We have no idea what the hell happened, but it finally stopped and the copier doesn't seem to be broken.  Well, I hope it's not.  We'll see on Monday if anyone complains about it. ::)

Anyway, I've been here since noon and have not actually done ANY (official) work!  I can't stay much longer either because I have to go home and take a shower before I leave to work concessions for the Harmony Sweepstakes A Cappella contest tonight.  The contest will be really good...but I have to stay late.  I also have a head ache and the ibuprofen that I took an hour ago hasn't helped.  So that's been my day.  Oy! ::)

Had lots of fun with little 3 year old Taylor and it was great to see newly born Benjamin...although he was asleep...but a little cutie!

ROBOTS was OK. The animation or computer animation was quite impressive...seemed almost 3-D. The movie itself was a bit boring...I think they showed ALL the best parts in the previews! LOL! Robin Williams was hilarious, as usual, but for some reason when they use movie actors (Ewan McGregor, Halle Berry, etc.), they just don't have interesting enough voices for cartoon work, in my opinion, thus some of the main characters were a bit dull...and some of the comedy was a bit on the vulgar side...well, vulgar to me...I just don't find multiple "fart" jokes to be all that amusing...I would not watch it again. But if they just trimmed it down to only the scenes with Robin Williams' character then I would enjoy it very much.

After the movie Taylor and I went to McDonalds and ate some foodstuffs. Taylor then tacked the giant play structure...at one point she climbed way up to the top of these platforms and couldn't figure out how to get down...she suddenly had a look of terror so I had to climb in and up to get her! LOL! Good thing I am still somewhat limber as it was a tight trecherous climb for an adult!

Of course once I got her back down on the ground she wanted to climb up again...thankfully she thought better of it once she studied the situation! LOL!

Has no one had a burger?  I ask you, where else on all the Internet would you see such a question.  I had an invite to see Robots tonight, but I'm really overtired and must relax on my sofa like so much fish.

Der Brucer and I had burgers earlier this week.  We had bacon cheeseburgers that I made, along with a salad (with fresh tomatoes and avocado) and tater tots.

McDonalds is evil.   :P

Wish I'd been around earlier to help all y'all with your Rodzinski spotting.  He was facing the cameras, a couple seats in from the far left end from our view.  (And if that wasn't you, Rodzinski, then I'm thoroughly confused :D)
