 Just received form the E & T td (Mr Dale)

May your hair, your teeth, your face-lift, your abs and
your stocks not fall, and May your blood pressure,
your triglycerides, your cholesterol, your white blood count
and your mortgage interest not rise.

May you get a clean bill of health from your dentist, your
cardiologist, your gastroenterologist, your urologist, your
proctologist, your podiatrist, your psychiatrist, your plumber
and the IRS.

May you find a way to travel from anywhere to anywhere
in the rush hour in less than an hour, and when you get
there May you find a parking space.

May Sunday evening, December 31, find you seated around
the dinner table, together with your beloved family and cherished
friends, ushering in the New Year ahead. You will find the food
better, the environment quieter, the cost much cheaper, and the
pleasure much more fulfilling than anything else you might
ordinarily do that night.

May you wake up on January 1st, finding that the world has
not come to an end, the lights work, the water faucets flow,
and the sky has not fallen.

May you go to the bank on the morning, January 3rd and
find your account is in order, your money is still there and any
mistakes are in your favor.

May you ponder on January 4th, How did this ultramodern
civilization of ours manage to get itself traumatized by a possible
slip of a blip on a chip made out of sand.

May you have the strength to go through a year of presidential
campaigning, and May some of the promises made be kept.
May you believe at least half of what the candidates propose,
and May those elected fulfill at least half of what they promise,
and the miracle of reducing taxes and balancing budgets happen.

May what you see in the mirror delight you, and what others see
in you delight them.

May the telemarketers wait to make their sales calls until you
finish dinner, and May your check book and your budget balance,
and May they include generous amounts for charity.

May you remember to say "I love you" at least once a day to
your spouse, your child, your parent, but not to your secretary,
your nurse, your masseuse, your hairdresser or
your tennis instructor.

May we live as intended, in a world at peace and the awareness of the
beauty in every sunset, every flower's unfolding petals, every baby's
smile and every wonderful, astonishing, miraculous beat of our heart.
And,
May you Forward this on to someone that could use a smile and a laugh
to brighten their day.

BK - At least the posts about the DREAMGIRLS grosses are not by the guy who screams everyhting about SPRING AWAKENING grosses in capital letters.  

That's some consolation, although I'd be careful about offering consolations to people like Yvonne de Carlo - she might actually glare at you as she signs her autograph.  Horrors!  :)  :)

I've given them (on the other board) something to come after me about - they will, and I know FJL will be there to defend me from the usual suspects.  They keep using boxofficemojo as their barometer - that sorry website made for teens who have nothing better to do than follow the grosses of movies, is so wrong so often it's not even funny.  That's where the puffed up POTP grosses appeared incorrectly - and, of course, three months later when it was rock certain they were horse manure, they just silently changed what they'd originally posted, and when I pointed this out on that board the usual suspects were, as usual, nowhere to be found.

Skip just brought home some POGUE brand bourbon.

Just thought I'd share (the info, not the bourbon).

How can we still be on page twelve?  I mean shouldn't it be thirteen?  That would be keen.

Now to finish my thank you notes and get ready for tonight, I may be going to a party, but Im not sure yet.

I have been cleaning out boxes of my old school work, and my! what a waste of time most school was.  I kept the most informative material but I dumped out about 4 trash cans full of worksheets and math homework.

Laters!

Good luck on the record breaking, and I'm glad the sandwiches were yummy.

Speaking of sandwiches, I haven't eaten....to the kitchen!!!

Check out the Library Jose. You must have learnt that from the show by now. I Hope Amalia finds her shoe for the performance.

I wish we had had the opportunity to see the show.

Improvised cheesy potatoes are in the oven - soon we'll grill chopped sirloins and have those items with salads and breadsticks leftover from the Olive Garden carry-in last week.  Another wild & crazy New Year's Eve in the Palmer household.

Larry, there are guest rooms aplenty in our new house!  Of course, we need to have our offer accepted and all the loan stuff go through.  I'm still trying to keep my hopes from going up too high.

I could not begin to try to catch up on EVERYTHING I've missed before the new year, so for now I am sending health vibes for all those who need them

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Comfort and cheer vibes for all those who may need them

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And general holiday spirit vibes for all, whether they need them or not!

Why?  Why?  Why, after six months straight, have I been "logged out" on this here site?  It make no bloody sense.  Can someone explain it?  I always check the box "keep me logged in" and that's the way it usually is.  Then, out of the blue, I'm a "guest" and need to log in.  I don't get it.

Good afternoon (Mountain Standard Time) to each and every single lovely, enticing, demure, buffed, flirtatious, rugged, stunning, erotic, wise, all-knowing, creative, hunky, droll, witty, sensual, and guapo Dear Reader on this here board !!

Why..... I think I just realized that all of those "descriptives" could apply just to the unique and wonderful DR Mike Barnum alone!

But they also apply to all of the DRs here in the Living Room. !!
