Well, you've read the notes, the notes had that bossa nova beat, and now it is time for you to post until the cows from Ipanema come home.

If there's a fastuous is there a slowuous?

I must get a haircut prior to my next trip to New York, New York, and I do believe I shall be blonder by the time I get there.

Amongst those twenty-three is no doubt my psychotic stalker.

TOD: I don't know from bossa nova, except for two songs: "The Girl from Ipanema" and "The Waters of March." I've enjoyed most of the covers of these songs that I've heard.

Sir Freddy the FASTUOUS looked down his long nose at all he considered slow-tuous, which was just about everyone, that being the kind of snob he was.

I have much catching up to do, having been busy all weekend with work. I was even asked to stay late, twice.

The restaurant choice for the birthday dinner is still up in the air. Der B has checked the menus at the two places owned by chef Jay and indicated his lack of positive impression.

The problem is a bang-for-the-buck issue - on the one hand, he (and I) can't see the sense of spending an arm and a leg on a dinner that I can replicate at home, and on the other hand, he's not into chefs who throw stuff together just because they can and because they're chefs even though even on paper it sounds rediculous. He wants a menu with choices that make sense but that are beyond my own cooking reach.

Obviously, I have to become a lesser cook. Or plan on eating sushi for my birthday. I can't make sushi, just don't have the skills.

My research continues.

Dear BK - good luck on your new book. I don't think I've ever read a novel about a CPA firm, but if anyone can pull it off, you can.

Tomovoz · « **Reply #17 on:** August 13, 2007, 04:36:09 AM »

Good morning and goodnight.

Don't blame it on the Bossa Nova. Blame JoJo

Good Morning to all.

Tomovoz · « **Reply #19 on:** August 13, 2007, 04:39:32 AM »

Steve, Larry, Ben and Michael. Welcome to Monday.

Ben · « **Reply #20 on:** August 13, 2007, 04:41:48 AM »

To go back to yesterday, two people mentioned two shows that I did not care for but I know that many, many, many people found them to be wonderful, brilliant, exciting, insert your own adjective.

DR Ginny mentioned ~~Screamgirls~~, Dreamgirls. I did not enjoy this show and I felt the Tony-award winning performance by a certain performer named Jennifer was NOT good but in fact AWFUL. I had trouble watching her on stage I disliked it so much.

DR TomofOz mentioned Jesus Christ ~~Screamingstar~~ Superstar. Again, another screamfest passing as musical theatre. I left the show with a headache.

Ben · « **Reply #21 on:** August 13, 2007, 04:42:11 AM »

I must tend to business.

Tomovoz · « **Reply #22 on:** August 13, 2007, 04:51:18 AM »

LOL DR Ben!

I thought I may have been alone in my dislike of Jennifer's screaming which became more laughable each time the act was reprised on an award show! (Sorry DR Ron)

Tomovoz · « **Reply #23 on:** August 13, 2007, 04:53:22 AM »

Of course audiences seem to enjoy the wonder and brilliance of the totally (to me) non involving "Lion King".

Tomovoz · « **Reply #24 on:** August 13, 2007, 04:53:42 AM »

and now to bed!

TCB · « **Reply #25 on:** August 13, 2007, 04:55:53 AM »

For once, Jose is off the hook; since I can now blame it on the Bossa Nova.

TCB · « **Reply #26 on:** August 13, 2007, 05:00:29 AM »

Good morning, elmore3003. Good morning, Michael S.

Ben is apparently away with his oatmeal bowl.

TCB · « **Reply #28 on:** August 13, 2007, 05:02:05 AM »

Has DR slingblade already come and gone this morning?
