Haines His Way

I woke up this morning thinking about DR DCelt and her family, which lead me to think about DR Danise and Dr Elmo and others who had lost loved ones this past year. There is nothing one can say, but I do hope you'll think often of the good times with your loved ones -- the happy memories -- as your comfort and your peace as you work through the grief.

I come on this site, one, for the entertainment -- all of you make me laugh -- often out loud -- and two because of the compassion, care and love you all show in your posts for each other, your families, your friends, and your pets. (And it's been supported by those of you I've met in person in LA and NYC). Sure, some of us can be snarky at times or get our feelings hurt, etc., but bottom line you are all so caring and kind -- you've got good hearts. So know that your loved ones upstairs are looking down with pride -- and a toast to them for playing a part in making each of you the person you are.

That's very lovely and eloquent, Miss Karen.  Thanks!

Oooh. I would love to see John Schneider in CHICAGO!

Betcha rather see him in SALEM

Here is Mr Cheyenne Jackson from reFRESH magazine.  The photographer obviously arrived early before Mr Jackson was dressed.

Now, now, Cheyenne is just a sweet innocent boy from Seattle (and oh do I know the dirt on him).

Yesterday we took a walk in town & stopped to visit friends.  Sherlock was given an early Christmas gift, a stuffed Gingerbread Man.  You should have seen the smiles on the streets as he walked along carrying it.

Today he insisted we play chase with him & “try” to get it away.  It is a game we play in the bedroom.  We know he is playing cuz he will get to the door & turn around & run back to us.

Help!
I need you techie photo finder HHWers to help me once again. I keep thinking it was JRand or der Brucer (?) who found it last time. (I know it's in the archives, but I can't even remember which month and I don't have time to go through a zillion posts -- I'm not even caught up from all my E and T behavior).

I need a photo of a life raft, not life boat, from circa 1912-1914. In that post from early last year (or was it the spring?), it was a picture of some sailors posing on the deck of the ship and you could see the life rafts hanging on the wall behind them. If someone finds it again, please PM for my home email, I'll send it, and then if you would forward me the photo, I'd be ever so appreciative.  
Thanks!

DR derBRUCER to the rescue with the life raft.

I think DR MISS KAREN asked that you PM her for her email, if you didn't already.

Good evening one and all.

Thank you early morning denizens for the kind words about the "bowl washing"

As you know I'm not around during the day. I've been exhausted (but good exhausted) by the time I get home. I clean up, we have dinner and then I may glance at the television but I'm in bed early. In fact, last night I went to bed at 7:30pm and didn't awake until 7:00am this morning.

The volunteering is going very well. We have been very busy (as usual). There seem to be fewer people this year so I feel busier than usual but we have been very productive. There are two large groups with a delivery date of this Saturday and their bags need to be finished by tomorrow afternoon. One group is finished and the other group will be finished by tomorrow. Our main problem now is finding space to put the finished bags so we can open and fill more bags. Once the two big deliveries are done over the weekend we will have more space. The two big groups are close to 600 bags alone. This year we are scheduled to do over 3000 bags for the first time (the project has been going on for 22 years). The total is close to 3100.

We have volunteer appreciation party on December 17th. It will be very nice (I know because I have been to other Volunteer parties thrown by the host in his exquisite Central Park West apartment. From Friday, December 14 through the end of the year, my time is my own. Ant and I don't have any big plans, just relaxation and visiting friends. We will go out to Long Island for Christmas and then back to the city for New Years.

That's all from Chelsea.

Also, in answer to the morning question, "Who's singing second tenor?" Not me, said the baritone.

I wish the 1957 BARRETTS OF WIMPOLE street with Miss Jennifer Jones and Mr Bill Travers was available on DVD or even VHS.

Wonder how I found it in the first place?  LOL.  Thanks again from both of us.  You just know I was going to be crazy trying to find it.

And tonight is another Irene Dunne night on TCM with some of her "weepers".

Ding-ding-ding!  We've got a life raft winner!  der Brucer --  

And to JRand --    (Uranus must have been aligned just right to get such quick results!)

I knew I could count on you HHWers!!

Thanks !!

You bet your aspidistra.  

FYI (or not -- maybe no one is really wondering...) I needed the picture for set purposes -- for my thesis project next spring, I'm directing O'Neill's one-act Thirst, so I want the raft to look as authentic as possible.

Next mission: Where/how do I find a West Indian mulatto sailor in Arizona -- who can act?

Spoo -- another mini-frenzy -- just can't help myself, so sorry again...
