Hey, Jed, why don't you drive over and we can go for ice cream?

Jed · « **Reply #181 on:** March 12, 2005, 05:51:23 PM »

Just gimme ten days and I'll be in your neck of the woods for a month. We can eat ourselves silly on ice cream!

Really??? Why??? When? Where?

JMK · « **Reply #183 on:** March 12, 2005, 06:02:05 PM »

Well I thought it was a great game, but what do I know (especially the last 5 minutes or so).

I concur with Jed that DR Rodzinski was the third in from the left. But I did not see Benjamin Kritzer (the person or the book

) propped up on the table.

You must have been E&T when this came about, dear old dad! I've got a four-week job lined up, scoring public school standardized tests (specifically the Ohio 4th grade writing assessment) up in Auburn. So, from March 23 through April 20 or so, DR Ann and I will be roommates. With any luck, we won't drive each other nuts to the point of ending up on the 11 o'clock news or anything...

We just got some astounding news: the farmhouse to the west of us, which is smaller than our house but is on 9/10 of an acre, is about to be listed for almost $600K. Even more astounding, the tiny house to the east of us, which is 1200 sq. ft. at most and on a miniscule lot (barely bigger than the house itself) is about to be listed for $365K. I think this means that we should be able to sell our house conservatively for at least $500K, since we have almost 3000 sq. ft. and our lot is 6/10 of an acre. So we may be moving, LOL.

*Side note to my cyber-father*

When I made the quick trip over last week for this interview, I stopped by the Walgreen's at Pearl and 37th(?). They had no birthday cake ice cream. Most unseemly, I tell ya!

DR Jane,
If I go to L.A. I will fly. My friend Mark and his boyfriend James may go with me...Mark wants to see all of the ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW people.

Then I guess you won't be spending a night or two in Medford

.

Jed · « **Reply #191 on:** March 12, 2005, 06:19:09 PM »

The butter pecan sufficed, of course.

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 )

How far into the game will I see him? I'm going to go look for Rodzinski soon.

Good evening, fellow Dear Readers.

Today I was an official guide on a bird walk, where I led a group of Girl Scouts working on a badge. It was swell. I was glad I had a group of kids, since I figured I might know more than they did. Now I am tired.

Jane · « **Reply #195 on:** March 12, 2005, 06:28:33 PM »

MBarnum did you see THE INCREDIBLES? We thought the voice acting was exceptional.

JMK where would you move to?

MBarnum · « **Reply #196 on:** March 12, 2005, 06:29:16 PM »

DR Jane,
My mom is demanding that I come down to Medford to visit, so sometime this spring I will be there! Just not sure when.

DR Jed, I think you are correct about where Rodzinski was sitting...that is the one I thought was him also, but as the cameras always seemed to focus on those tall people with the orange balls, I never could tell for sure.

Anytime the action of the game is at the left end of the court, look for the red shirt 3rd from the end at the press table. That blur is our Rodzinski. Sadly, they didn't give him much in the way of close-ups.

I'll defer to my father on this one.

MBarnum · « **Reply #199 on:** March 12, 2005, 06:31:14 PM »

DR Jane, I have not seen THE INCREDIBLES yet, but I want to very much. There is also a new animated movie coming out that has some animals from a zoo being moved back to the jungle...the preview seemed very funny...Taylor indicated that she would like to see it! LOL!

Not having the birthday cake on hand, they forced me into making a bold move on my own.

I decided I would spend the rest of the evening relaxing in front of the TV watching some movies that potential future interviewees are in...THE COSMIC MAN (1959) and CALL OF THE YUKON 1944)!

Oh, BK, I had a Big and Tasty at McDonald's today. That is my hamburger story...it was good, but I am sure not good for me! LOL!

Thanks Jed. I will just hope the pause button improves the image.

I'm having a Patrice Leconte festival - am watching the amusing Tango right now, to be followed by The Perfume of Yvonne (unless I decide to save that for tomorrow and watch Panic in the Streets instead). I'm really drowsy, all this getting up early for workers has gotten to me, and I have three more days of it starting Monday, and then I leave for the airport on Thursday at four-thirty in the morning.

I know it sounds crazy, but we'd probably just try to find a bigger, newer house in this neighborhood, preferably not right on Hamilton. The thing is Betsy's parents really wanted to buy the little house next door to us and move out here for their twilight years, but if it's going to go for $365K, it's out of their range (it's incredible to us it's being listed for that, because the guy just bought it 10 months ago for about $250K). So what we're thinking now is trying to find a place with a separate guest house or apartment above the garage where Betsy's parents could live.

Jane · « **Reply #209 on:** March 12, 2005, 06:57:39 PM »

I AM STUFFED!!

I was starving and ate too many leftovers. Now my pants are too tight. I must begin a diet tomorrow-or Monday.

Off to find Rodzinski.
