Thursday morning greetings!  DH Richard had his post-op check-up with the hunk surgeon this morning.  I was going to go into work late, but decided to take the rest of the day to look after him (DH Richard, not the hunk surgeon!).

[Dan (the Man)]

One day Ollie came home to find his wife Lena sitting stark naked on their bed.

"Holy cow, Lena," Ollie exclaimed.  "What are you doing sitting around like that in the middle of the day?"

And Lena started crying.  "I don't have anything nice to wear", she sobbed.

"What do you mean you don't have anything nice to wear?" asked Ollie as he opened their bedroom closet.  "Why, look in here!  Here's your pretty blue dress, here's your nice Sunday church dress, here's your nice every day dress, here's our neighbor Frank, here's your pretty green dress..."

Happiest of birthdays to DR Jennifer!

[Jennifer]

Thanks for all the birthday wishes.

I have a cake story for DR Laura.

The restaurant where i usually go for my birthday provides a free cake.   The one i am going to tonight not only does not provide a free cake. But they charge $1.50/person to cut the cake (we are 8 people).

My aunt told them she would cut the cake herself (but this is not allowed).

They don't sell cakes (although they do sell very expensive single slices).

Now i don't really care (they do bring out a piece of cake for free). But my aunt was quite annoyed.

Is this a common thing? I get that it could be a pain for them to store the cake. But we always bring cakes to restaurants (for birthdays). and this is the first time we've come across such a policy!

So no cake description for DR Laura (although i can do a piece of cake description).

[Ginny]

{{{DR Elmore}}} - Hope today is a better day for you.

All of these corny jokes are ALMOST worthy of DR Ron Pulliam!  

[Jennifer]

I have not read any reports about last night's IDOL. But i did not like it very much.

The format bothered me.  WE have these hugely upsetting stories, mixed with singers, and worthless idol's being declared safe.  That was so mean what they did to jordin. The girl was in tears!

I also really disliked the idea of them not eliminating anyone. My gosh if anyone sat through the whole two hours, that was not fair.  Plus what if the person with the least votes this week is not one of the bottom 2 next week. I find the whole thing unfair.

[Ron Pulliam]

Yesterday was a completely frustrating day: every plan and intention I had to be accomplished between 10 AM and 6 PM went to hell, and I wasted my day because of others' irresponsibilities.
 [snip]I'm too old, too testy, and too tired of catering to idiots.

Whither DR BrettySpaghetti?

Did he get covered by new mown hay?

Did he dislike The Closer. and felt he couldn't come back?

I liked it! I was more interested in the current story than the backstory. But i liked sun's interaction with juliet (what a bitch!). But the end really confused me!  This is the first we've heard from the outside world about the flight.  Anyone know what this means?

[Ron Pulliam]

FYI...

With only 4 hours of sleep Tuesday night, and only 5 hours last night, I am NOT RESPONSIBLE for any posts I may commit today...

Well this DOES explain a few posts, then.....

[Ron Pulliam]

I enjoyed all the pictures posted yesterday evening.

I've always contended the camera ADDS 10 pounds.  I'm glad I'm not the only one plagued by having more than ONE camera on me when a picture is snapped!

WOD:

I looked up invidious in the dictionary, and this is what I found:

Well...it means no one is looking for survivors.  Whether the strange lady is telling the truth or not remains to be seen.  I've often wondered if this island was a "purgatory" for crewmembers who "died" when the plane crashed.

On the other hand, we know the flight cannot have been "found" since we, ourselves, have seen the nose and tail sections during the course of the first and second seasons.

Drama Desk nominations have been announced, here.

Very cool pic of DR Jose, Eartha Kitt and Paul Newman!

When I was a kid, folks used to say my dad looked quite a lot like Paul Newman.  I never saw it.

Looking at this picture, however, it's eerie how much, in his last years, my dad resembled how Paul looks now.

I quite agree with you.  Each elimination is based on how you performed the night before.  Some contestants LITERALLY stay or go based on a performance.

Someone should have gone last night.   Period.  Two leaving next week doesn't cut it at all.  Averaging out votes over two weeks isn't the answer.

I hope all the self-congratulations are done with this "Idol Gives Back" event.

Good up to there....who is doing the music, Mr Producer?

[Ginny]

Thought some of you might like to see The University of Michigan's new

Arthur Miller Theatre

It's on North Campus, where I lived for 4 of my 5 years in Ann Arbor.

It's great to see how much fun MBarnum is having in Hollywood USA!

He must feel like he's in heaven after meeting all these show folks.

[MBarnum]

A very happy birthday DR Jennifer!!!

[MBarnum]

I am indeed, Ron Pulliam! I am having a blast!!! Although I can't decide which is more fun...seeing all the celebs or seeing all the wonderful HHWers! I guess it is a toss-up!

[MBarnum]

Jose, I had thought about going to Koreatown last night, but was too tired to make the trek...although I am not so sure it wasn't any further of a drive then going to Van Nuys...well, actually I drove all the way to Panorama City (a frightenning place, by the way) and then backtracked on Van Nuys Blvd until I Located the restaurant (as that is how I came across it the first time I ate there)

[MBarnum]

DR JRand56, Sally Todd thought Allison was a sweet lady. They didn't work together a whole lot, however.
