Haines His Way

The jernt is empty.

Good morning DR ELMORE.

I just got back from a couple of gasoline stations including Casey's and Crystal Flash and there are NO SUNDAY NEWSPAPERS available in town.

I am still laughing at the Jack Benny clips that MR BK posted last night - in particular the Jack/Groucho take off.

For DR MISS KAREN and others:

You don't always have access to the providential vibrations of Venus and Jupiter together in harmony, so take advantage of every opportunity coming your way. This sky pattern can still be influential for the remainder of the day although it will probably start dissipating somewhat by the evening hours. You can certainly make a splash in artistic, journalistic, literary, social and cultural circles while Venus and Jupiter hold court.

"Tell us, Laura, does Alan Brady wear his toupee at home?"

"Oh, yes, he wears it all the time."

"You heard it hear first, ladies and gentlemen, Alan Brady is bald!"

Hi folks,

Is today Babble On Five day?  

I never have watched my new B5 Lost episode, I was going to save that for when I got my new TV.  I don't know when that is going to happen.  

I found a 27" HD TV that would fit in tv entertainment center I already have.  I know everyone wants size but for my little house, I'm wondering if I really do need a TV that takes up the whole wall.   I am torn between the 27" or getting a either 30 or 32 inch but if I do, then I need a new stand.

I wondered who threw us into Cinemascope!  Good morning, DR Danise. Can you remove the Best Buy URL?

I did but I didn't see Cinemascope.

Good morning DR ELMORE.

DR JRand57, good morning to you! If it's any comfort, in my hometown the Middletown Journal publishes everyday with no news whatsoever.  I think Indiana is just saving trees.

Good Morning.

Der B - After reading the DM Register story and the polls you referred to, I decided to take a second look at the comparisons of the candidates on my issues.   While I didn't get the great vibe from Obama that everyone else does when I met him,  he is good on my issues from my point of view, as is Edwards, Hillary and I just don't agree on issues.

So, like many people I know, the problem I'm starting to have is I like too many of the candidates and although I signed up with Richardson, I can still change my mind.  I just need to do it in time for them to find another precinct chair.

Hmmm don't know if there is a paper on my doorstep this morning, I should go check.

Ben - great to hear you on the BBC

Hello, DR Hisaka! Glad to see you! We've never met but everyone here is very fond of you, so I'm glad you're here! You have been mised!

Thank you, DR Jane, for sending your warm message, which I received through dear BK.
Thank you, DR Laura, DR MBarnum, DR Cillaliz and other beautiful DRs, for posting about me. I was surprised and happy to know that some of dear readers remembered me still.

My life has completely changed since I came back here in Los Angeles in April this year. I'm not only a student any more. I have had many things to do and many things to think and many things happened to me unexpectedly. Also, I have had a personal problem which is complicated and hard to settle for me. So I have not been able to afford to read the notes or posts or to post on the board, physically and mentally.

I reached my goal on TOEIC test three months ago (quite earlier than I'd expected) and one month later I passed a screening test for a position as a member of  a volunteer translation group. I'm having a project (A court precedent in the US, from English to Japanese) with three professional translators. It's a hard work but I enjoy it very much. I believe that working in the group is having good opportunities to study about many various special/technical fields and to gain my experience.

I happened to meet a person who runs a party decor company a few months ago.  I like her works very much and am interested in her profession, which in Japan we don't have many yet. I asked her to have me at her office, since I wanted to learn from her how to set up a party. She accepted. So I go to her office in Canoga Park twice a week since the end of October.  It takes me to get there from home about two hours by bus and  train. It's a loooong journey but I'm okay, I can read many books, like Murder at Hollywood High:), all along the way. And most of the weekend, I am at the site where we set up a party from early in the morning.(I'm actually leaving home in an hour to Hyatt Century Plaza Hotel to set up a wedding reception)

I have to go to school all I can, because of my student visa, which I don't enjoy much.

I sometimes see dear BK, who is always nice to me and cheers me up.

This is my LA life.

Someday in the future, I'd like to be back here in HHW. I have no idea when but I'm sure I will. HHW is my first port in the US I found. Hope all of you will be fine and have a wonderful holiday season!

DR Hisaka! It is wonderful to see you here again.  I know how busy you are, and it would be nice if you could occasionally grab a minute and let us know how you are doing and what has been going on in your life.  I'm sorry to hear there's been some personal issue, but I think the party/event planning prog=fession is quite fascinating.
