Well, you've read the notes, the notes have drained your cranium, and now it is time for you to post until the post-prandial cows come home.

Gazebo has always been a funny word to me. ;D

Gazebo and kumquat.  Kumquat is a funny word, too. ;)

Water the best thirst quencher.

Something with chocolate. But I try (and it's hard to) avoid anything sweet these days.

In the Breaking News category: They may have captured the Baseline Killer in Phoenix, Arizona. This would be the second serial killer roaming our streets.

The Buster Keaton documentary A Hard Act to follow was the followup to the Unknown Chaplin documentary. I believe they did one more with Harold Lloyd as the subject.

One really doesn't see genius like those three gentleman anymore.

TOD: If Diet Coke and water are not quenching your thirst, maybe some Gatorade would do it. It has the electrolytes and stuff that you need if you are dehydrated.

Just realized I hit the 4000 mark a few posts ago, but that that is small compared to BK and DR. Matt Hough who together are nearing 50,000 posts!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO DR WILLIAM E. LURIE!

I do believe the word of the day is not "gazEbo" - but "gazAbo."

According to languagehat.com:

GAZABO

A slang term from the early part of the last century meaning 'guy, fellow' or (according to Howard N. Rose's 1934 A Thesaurus of Slang) 'a friend or companion.' Jack London in Valley of the Moon (1913) uses it thus: "By the sixth round the wise gazabos was offerin' two to one against me."

...From a poem by Edwin Honig, "The Gazabos":

I saw them dancing,
the gazabos, apes of joy, swains of
their pocket mirrors, to each a world:
a dancing, a gallumphing, a guzzling
of themselves...

And on that note (b-flat), good-night, Dear Gazabos.

Good morning, all!  I believe the gazabo should stay in the gazebo.

This afternoon's our first band reading for THE TRAGIC AND HORRIBLE LIFE OF THE SINGING NUN, and I am looking forward to it.  I have some time this morning in the recording office, and I hope there will be a few new scores to peruse.

A happy birthday wish to William Lurie.  I see him posting occasionally on the Cast Recording List, but I have no idea what other sites he may be frequenting these days.

I have no anagrams for GAZABO, nor do any of my fellows.  Of course, since my fellows are all dogs, they don't give a dang about anagrams.

My thirst quenchers tend to be sodas, in flavors like black cherry and ginger ale.  Oh, and birch beer, which I much prefer over root beer.

I'm not much of a sweets fan.

Well, I THINK it worked.  It was almost strangely quiet in my bedroom last night.  Perhaps I had gotten used to the noise.  

The cats were fighting like cats and cats as I got ready this morning.  Man that irritates me...I separated them and made sure they had both eaten breakfast. They seemed to have setteled down when I left. I think me being tense about possible bat sightings has them a little wound up too.

Then I got to work and the secretary who refused to do my work just a few short weeks ago is now doing things I have told her I want to do myself. She's driving me nuts!!!! She's like a mother hen, she has a sinus infection and says that she really should be home etc...  Then go home!!!! However the investigator I really need to do some things for me is staying home with a sick kid for the second day in a row....I get so sick of it. Someone is gone everyday for at least part of the day for their kids.   I understand every now and then but not every day.  Of course these are the same people who thought it wasn't fair that I took time off....AHHHHH.

Ok, end of rant.

On another note, there is a beautiful clear blue sky out my window. The sun is shining and it looks like a beautiful day.   I've lost over 10 pounds now....things aren't so bad

An anagram for GAZABO is "BAZ' GOA" - a trade reference to the much-talked-about and probably in turnaround Baz Luhrmann opera production of A Madhouse in Goa.

Favorite thirst quencher these days is iced green tea.  It hits the spot, and there's at least an illusion that I'm doing something good for myself when drinking it
