MY LIDS ARE HEAVY PART TWO
« on: October 08, 2007, 12:10:56 AM »

Well, you've read the notes, and can you believe that I'd already used the title My Lids Are Heavy?  Who knew?  And now it is time for you to post until the heavy-lidded cows come home.

TOD:  I have no idea how to estimate #s, but the answer is: too many.  As DR Ron Pulliam has said, I like the idea of owning something so that I can watch/listen whenever the mood strikes me.  But the reality is that most of us have far too little discretionary time to spend on such activities.

TOD

1117 DVD Titles (Where single show box sets, like Buffy Season #1, count as one title)

750 Shows/Classical (Again, titles, not actual disc count)

600+ Pop Music (never been catalogued)

Many DVDs on the "to watch list" (so little viewing time) (The new house has no curtains on the double windows on the main living room wall which makes quality DVD viewing problematic in daylight).

Enjoy your worm early bird! I would have beat you if I hadn't been fussing with media counts for the TOD

Oh, thanks, DR dB - but I'm really not into that kind of thing.   ;)

I believe that CONSPECTUS is the medical problem Ginny was referring to with people who don't drink lots and lots of water when they are taking Vicodin.

Thanks for the link, DR NOEL.....high praise for ALL of the HHW connected musicals!!!

DR MBARNUM - as an Oregon State Employee - may be off work today, so he can buy some wires for his new TEE VEE and enjoy some viewing, hopefully.

I, on the other hand, am working.

TOD:

I don't know...but I will estimate about 400 CD's, and the same number of DVD's.  Still own several VHS tapes.....but don't watch them much anymore.

But seriously, Happy Columbus Day to you.  We, meaning the employees of the State of Washington, gave up this day as a holiday years ago in exchange for the day after Thanksgiving.

T.O.D.


I confess.  I have maybe 50 DVDs, and possibly 80 CDs.

I hope this doesn't get me thrown off the site.

Ah....Indiana State Employees did the same, but it wasn't Columbus Day....it was another one....perhaps Veteran's Day in November.  8)

Well this week Mars turns retrograde and we will have a new moon in Libra....meaning get your ducks in a row....but don't do it by yelling at them.

And in the middle of it all Jupiter squares Uranus, making you jumpy   Reassess all changes you have made this summer and move ahead with those you are sure about.  Leave the others behind.

I got to see The Last Starfighter on Saturday and had a wonderful time. My only complaint is one familiar to Bruce. The sound was problematic. At times it was too loud and there was a lot of static at some points, otherwise I really enjoyed the show and got to speak, albeit briefly, with both Fred and Skip and got to say hello to Toby and Dylan. All in all a nice evening.

Good morning, good day.

Check vibes for MR BK....

We saw the preview for THE CAR at the Jerry Lewis Cinema oh so many years ago.  And the audience couldn't stop laughing....by the end of it, you could barely hear the sound because the commotion was so great....I think the biggest response came when someone said:

"The car.....my God....the CAR is in the garage!!!!"

Last night we finally finished our 3rd Levain cookie. They lasted for an entire week! It was the chocolate chocolate chip piece of heaven. What a treat. We had flounder stuffed with crabmeat, fresh steamed green beans and saffron rice for dinner. I had a nice Mandarin Orange herbal iced tea and Anthony had a large glass of water. We then popped the cookie into the microwave for 30 seconds, cut it in half and had our dessert. Wow!

We don't have many DVDs, probably15 total. We do have many CDs, though. Between the two of us we probably have over 300. I know that compared to many of you that's not a lot but for our small space it's more than enough. Most of mine are cast recordings or theatre related though I do have a nice collection of Peter, Paul and Mary and the Chad Mitchell Trio. I also have all the Manhattan Transfer albums on CD and all of Barbara Cook's CD and Nancy LaMott's work.
