Back from the Michael Weller Theatre, where we had two solid shows today. Definite energy improvements from my cast of 2. There is a lot of pressure on me because I operate (and perform) several sound cues in the show. Haven't screwed up yet!

I have to have something to read while the other 10-minute plays are being done and I am stuck in the booth, and I have really been enjoying the recent anniversary issue of ROLLING STONE. I haven't read that magazine in years, but rather than pat iself on the back too much, it just features solid indepth interviews with a lot of '60s  luminaries: Dylan, Jagger, McCartney, Nicholson, McGovern, Mailer, Jane Fonda, etc. Collectively, it gives a fascinating glimpse at the zeitgeist of the '60s, but also the failure of that promise. It is enlightening and depressing in equal turns.

Boy, this is slow going around these parts.  Okay, here is a question or a subject or a something:

If you could throw a cream pie in the face of some celebrity (with no fear of arrest or reprisal); who would it be and why?


Tom Cruise, because he is a pompous ass.

Rosie O'Donnell, because if Tom Cruise were a lesbian, he'd be Rosie O'Donnell.  The switch is in the on position, but no one bothered to screw in a light bulb.

Vibes for Elmore!! It is a big positive that you are self aware enough to recognize the collective toll everything has taken. Sometimes people never make the connection.

Also reading on my subway rides an early '70s bio of Darryl F. Zanuck called "Don't Say Yes Until I Finish Talking." Very good.

Oh... my answer to the "pie-in-the-face-question" --

The reigning devious, two-faced, evil, and dangerous elected official.....Dick Cheney !  I think the combination of Cheney and Karl Rove have done more harm to this country than anyone else in a long time.  

Yea, yea,...... I know that the Log Cabin boosters think people like me are crazy.... and can't possibly love the United States.  Well, I do love it, and that's why the present state of this nation saddens me so.
Please, dear Music Guy, do not confuse Log Cabin's being Republican as meaning that we support everyone who claims to be Republican.  We certainly do not.  We're far more subversive than that - we want to take the party back from the radical right, and bring it back to it's grassroots centerist heritage.  That's the real reason the radical right refuses to deal with us - we scare the holy sh!t out of them!

Der Brucer and I had a marvelous brunch (latish) at Partners.  He had the surf and turf poached eggs, I had the open-faced Mexican omelet.

Then we checked out a couple of bookstores downtown, and returned home.  I took a nap.

Before that, there was workage.

Today was the first day with the self-serve registers working.  There are a few glitches - why the heck is zucchini listed on the computer as "green squash," which is confusing to the customers.  For that matter, our mini hard rolls aren't even listed, and a lot of our elderly customers love those rolls.

Overall, the customers still seem to prefer the human contact found at our older registers.

Tomorrow, I get to wrangle carts.

Due to our lunch, der B and I are going to scrounge leftovers tonight.  I think I'll be repeating last night's chile relleno casserole.

We're watching Iron Chef America.  Tonight's secret ingredient...

Tom Cruise couldn't be a lesbian!  He doesn't have sex with women.

Yes, chile relleno casserole does tend to repeat on you.

And, Dear DR Elmore -

Everything that has been taking place in your life is good reason to feel saddened.  You've been through the wringer over the past year.

However, I believe your mood will lift if you can convince your doctors to correct, through whatever means necessary, your back pain.  This is wearing you down beyond what you should have to tolerate, and the pain is clearly having an effect on how you react to the other parts of your life.  

Love you very much.

I worked all the live long day in the yard while Dog Bosco and Freddy supervised and/or napped.

This weekend is almost over and I am not ready to go back to work yet.

Neither am I, DR MBarnum!  This has been one of my one-day weekends and they're never long enough.
