LOL These dogs prefer to howl then to bark.

Very true... A freind's relative in Northern MN trains dogs for sledracing and many of them are either huskies or malamutes or a mix. One day we were sitting in the kitchen and one gal leanedout the window and howled softly and the dogs started howling...

The tourists on the other side of the lake were all excited when they heard the 'wolves"

there is so much food in my home environment it's not even funny.  Tammy, Lauren, and I did the shopping, which took quite some time.  Tammy began her pot roast and then went back to work, and Lauren is here doing things.  I'm going to try and write the end of the scene I'm in, but it's a bit difficult to concentrate, frankly.   Vinnie should be here within the hour to configure my new portable hard drive.  Oh, boy.

Because of all the food or the young ladies?

It smells good around here.  Tammy's not here, and Lauren is cooking and talking on her cell phone - that's what makes it difficult to concentrate.  I've finished Act One Scene One and have begun Act One Scene Two, which is a short, simple little comic scene - sort of a bridging scene - I wonder if I should even call it a scene.  What do you all think?  Also, I've been offered a copy of Richard Rodgers' book Musical Stages, inscribed by Mr. Rodgers to Goddard Lieberson.  Very tempting but pricey - I might try to work out a trade for it.

I can smell the food wafting all the way over to Dakota....

Have a splendid meal and a good Seder..

A week from tomorrow is when I'm doing the Grantseeking for Individuals in the Arts workshop - yikes, I'm on a steep learning curve.  Back to the PowerPoint!

I was updating my info on my ITUNES list and I came across two songs by Skip Kennon (other than Last Starfighter)

I Shut the Door (Lyrics by Michael Korie) from the musical Blanco
I Almost Cry (Lyrics By Ellen Fitzhugh) from the musical Big Blonde

Can DR FJL give us a little more background to them?

I just got a call from the people who invite me to their Seder every year -- and didn't this year. Turns out that for the first time in decades, they're going to someone else's Seder. Whewww! I was starting to get paranoid. The other place I'm usually invited has had a recent death in the family. And you'd have to threaten me with something that really really hurt to have me host a Seder. Sooo, it's the Wonderdog and I asking each other The Four Questions. (His full name, after all, is Abraham.) I purchased some vegetable Sushi and matzo. May add Jujubes to complete the menu. Perhaps wash it down with a glass of Kosher wine. And we'll have dog biscuits, of course.

Later I'll watch and tape the second showing of this week's SOPRANOS. Missed the first while in NY. Then Wonderdog and I will sing traditional Jewish songs of the season and dance the Horah.
A full evening of festivities.

So what's the proper greeting for Passover?  Is it Happy Passover? that sounds a bit strange mixed with the bitter herbs and the suffering of the slaves.  Whatever it is.....I wish that to those who observe it.

"Happy Passover" is fine, CL. I agree it's strange. But, really, the definition of Jewish holidays is "Suffer, suffer some more, then eat." The variation being, "Suffer, suffer some more, then fast, THEN eat."

Passover is really a time of celebration, and remembering the suffering that came before.  It’s a good holiday, then I never had to give up anything.  My family wasn’t strict about the diet and I loved peanut butter & jelly on matzos sandwiches.  By the end of Passover many of my friends were really complaining about their matzos lunches.  I kindly offered to trade my sandwich with them.  To give them credit no one took me up on my offer.

I do remember Penny beginning the holiday with the best intentions and breaking them by the end.

Penny do you remember the picnic we went on with Tex and the cake? ;D
