I finally heard from my nephew in Naples. He is fine, pets are fine but they had a lot of damage. He still doesn’t have power but fortunately has a generator for essentials.

Apologies to everyone who took me "literally" yesterday about having sighted my twin.

I was actually parodying JRand55's comments to JoseSPiano about his having seen Jose's twin...younger, of course; slighter in build, and one other difference...but insisting, of course, that he saw Jose.

I attempted to paint a picture of "my twin" who looked nothing like me physically, but in whom I saw myself.

Another lost opportunity at humor....

Now that is funny.

Well, then, exactly what word would you use to describe someone who had a nice set of boobs and was sexy and made your eyes bug out?

Having not been not so gifted, I do not know how one who was, would liked to be referred to. My gifts are in other areas, I have a left shoulder-blade that is a miracle of loveliness. People come miles to see it. My right elbow has a fascination that few can resist. As for my circulation, it is the largest in the world.

The sanding continues. I can't wait for silence when he is done. The good news is the floors look beautiful.

I thought I spotted my twin the other day in the ladies room but it turned out to be a mirror

Mama!

--er--no!--wait a minute!--That just slipped out.

No! Wait--it didn't slip out--that's not what I meant--

I meant to say Babe! Yeah, that's it--she would be a Babe. That's what I meant to say.

I'm faced with a conundrum.

Yes.

Either a conundrum or a kettledrum, I can never keep them straight.

I have piles and piles of unlistened-to CDs.

I have piles and piles of unwatched DVDs.

I have stacks and stacks of unread books.

And frankly, my dears, I haven't the time to do much of anything with any of them.

Much less keep them organized, which is the true source of my conun/kettle(?)drum.

There should be a place for everything and everything in its...but the problem...when I put things away I forget about them until I'm looking for something to while away a couple of hours...never mind that I often replay DVDs or CDs I love a lot...but when things are put away, I make no efforts to listen/watch/read them...so I make piles and stacks and piles and stacks and I don't have that much surface space, so the piles and stacks get higher and more unwieldy (unwieldier, as it were)...and any mild earthquake is going to result in a major catastrophe, let me assure you.

My weekend, I'm afraid, is going to be spent "arranging" things.

The story of my life!

I enjoy SMALLVILLE, but I usually catch it in reruns as for the last couple of years, it has had the misfortune to air opposite other shows that I couldn't be sure would be rerun.

SMALLVILLE is one of those shows that looks astounding in high definition.

THANK YOU!!!!!!

When I got home Wednesday day (that day was a horrible day) I found your gift....

It made me smile and number 9 made me laugh out loud! So I pormptly played that for the Vixter who also laughed. and demanded several replayings

You have brought much happiness to our home

The horrible thing is after its that noisy your ears are still ringing after it stops and you can't hear correctly for a while. I recommend a hike in the woods! (also good for keeping the sawdust out of your lungs!)

ENjoyed watching the rest of DARLING LILI. I once again agree with DR td, the film is the proper length now. The story isn't complex enough to need all that padding, and with the cut scenes now in a separate section, I can see the children's chorus number and understand it's a sweet song but totally unnecessary to the film.

I do think the beginning of "I'll Give You Three Guesses" could have been spared the scissors, however. It's lovely.

No luck on the candy corm n or any other sweets... rats!

I had to settle for a cup of coffee.....

ah well.... maybe I will grow less zaftig

Next I watched the fabulous DETECTIVE STORY. When you've got an engrossing play with lost of fascinating characters, there's no need to do fancy stuff with the camera. He had that same no nonsense approach with his film version of THE HEIRESS.

I had tears in my eyes by the end of DETECTIVE STORY. Very effective melodrama.

Since there is no network TV on tonight that I now watch, I'll catch up on some of those shows on the DVR tonight. Hope to get at least a Val Lewton film and last night's NIGHT STALKER watched if possible.

All you have to do, DR vixmom, is stroll past our dining room table. In the center, I have our terra cotta Jack-o-Lantern on a wooden plate surrounded by candy corn. I like for it to get a little stale.

Does the Vixter still go trick or treating?

vixmom · « **Reply #172 on:** October 28, 2005, 01:34:49 PM »

DR elmore.. I must check my email more often! Thank you for the links!

I can't wait to hear your review of the show tomnight , I have been debating whetehr or not to bring t the Vixter in to see it... I await your advice.

And please give my love to your fellow theatre goers!

Oh yes, in fact I will be going home early so she can go after school and before dance class while it is still light out.

GODS OF OLYMPIA - talky, talky shot on video flick from the state of Washington. A former Pittsburgher (and fellow Junior High Quiz contestant) appears in it.
K-HOLE - same former Pittsburgher, Michael Haboush, wrote and directed this story of addiction.

I rented both of these from Netflix. I got them because a woman that I work with is in a couple of Michael Haboush's movies. I don't remember which, but in one of them, she's a (homeless?) person walking along the side of a street with no sidewalks and one of the main characters asks her a question and they have a little scene together. At first glance, you might think that she's a man, but her name is Carole.

I've rented several of his other movies, but really only because some were filmed in Olympia. Okay, there is some (young...but legal) eye candy, but the movies are NOT worth watching all the way through just for that.

Ron how frustrating! I would want to sample various potato salads.

Another person made her potato salad (also 20 lbs.) using a pesto sauce as dressing.

And danged if I didn't miss out on that altogether!!!

But I did get to taste mine and one other person's.

I got my "usual" compliments (people LOVE garlic-stuffed olives on anything, it seems), and I have "some" to take home.

Apparently, the "organizers" claim they told each potato-salad-maker to make 5 lbs. Well, nobody told me. And nobody told the other person who made 20 lbs.

So...when I was told I'd made too much...I had to ask, "Then why are you being so chintzy dishing it out. Put out a couple of bowls and let everyone help themselves."

I got a blank look for a moment, and then I heard, "Good idea!"

And so it was...let it be spoken, let it be done.

That's a good thought too. Paul suggested we go as each other, but that would mean he would have to shave his beard, and he didn't want to do that so we're still thinking. He's working on a mural so i have to meet with him after work to brainstorm
