Well, my school board candidate is going to use one of my comments:

There is something wrong with a system that provides better career training facilities for prison inmates than it does for students.

TCB, I wish I could have valuable advice for you.  I expect you have been doing your own research.

VIBES & HUGS!!!

I wouldn't mind seeing a new GUYS AND DOLLS either, with all four principals being trained singers.

I began my afternoon watching the last two episodes of BEAUTY AND THE BEAST. Finnouala Flannagan was the guest star in both of the episodes. Nice upbeat way to end the series. Not one I'd ever want to watch again, but glad I saw it this one time.

I thought Ron Perlman made a very eloquent and emotional Beast.

I keep telling you - come on a my house, DR TCB; mum is a registered nurse, albeit handicapped now, and I am skillfully trained in wound care, administering injections as well as dressings, antibiotics and bedside manner.

I wouldn't take a chance of infeting someone that I care about, like you DR td.

I then watched another NCIS episode, this one about the death of the son of Gibbs' former CO. It was funny the man calling Gibbs "probie" when he calls his team that from time to time. Those terms are always relative.

I guess tonight I'll start on the next box set - SOUL FOOD. I wanted to watch LIFE OF BRIAN on Blu-ray, but since I'm going to take off two hours tonight to watch GHOST WHISPERER rerun (which I've never seen) and TORCHWOOD, I need to make some headway in this box set.

Are any of the East Coasters considering going to see ADDING MACHINE - THE MUSICAL?  It is difficult to imagine a musical version of that play.  Next thing you know, someone will try a sci-fi musical!

This certainly gives you something to think about:


''Iraqi Hockey Player''

 

The ''Detroit Red Wings'' foreign scout flies to Baghdad to watch a young Iraqi

play hockey in the new American sponsored league and is suitably impressed

and arranges for him to come over to the US ..

Ken Holland signs him to a one year contract and the kid joins the team for

the preseason.

Two weeks later the Wings are down 4-0 to the Blackhawks with only 10 minutes

left. Mike Babcock gives the young Iraqi the nod and he goes in.
The kid is a sensation - scores 5 goals in 10 minutes and wins the game for Wings!

The fans are delighted, the players and coaches are delighted and the media love

the new star.

 

When the player comes off the ice he phones his mom to tell her about his first day

of NHL hockey. "Hello mom, guess what?" he says in an Iraqi accent. "I played for

10 minutes today, we were 4-0 down, but I scored 5 goals and we won.

Everybody loves me, fans, the media, they all love me."

 

Wonderful," says his mom, "Let me tell you about my day. Your father got shot

in the street and robbed, your sister and I were ambushed, raped and beaten

and your brother has joined a gang of looters, and all while you were having such

great time." The young Iraqi is very upset.
"What can I say mom, but I'm so sorry." "Sorry? You're Sorry?" says his mom,

"It's your fault we moved to Detroit in the first place!"

TCB, I'm sorry, but I doubt the family would have moved to Detroit.  They would have lived in one of the suburbs, very likely the one we lived in. ;D

Hi Ben.  When are you leaving for dinner.  I suppose by NY standards it is still early.

I am seriously considering putting myself in the hospital, just to be in a nice sterile environment, and where the medical staff can change by bandages every couple of hours.  I am afraid to touch the kitties, i am afraid to touch my face or my mouth or any food stuffs.  

Yesterday afternoon, I found what may become two more outbreaks on the same arm.  They were in the form of boils, but so far that is all they are.  I will keep watching them.

This whole thing is so depressing for me. Thank goodness for my friends at HHW, who I can chat with online, and not worry about infecting!

I am glad you have us here at HHW, TCB, but what an ordeal you're going through! I send you hugs!

That reminds me of the first place I ever stayed in New York back in 1969.  Our advertising agency had a very small walk-up in Greenwich Village. It had the bathtub in the kitchen.  They had cork-tiled the whole place, giving an odor that never came out of my clothing.  Also, they had painted the upright piano in the place  with some cheap paint that came off on everything that touched it.  What an adventure!

I once stayed in a 5th floor walk-up in Soho with a bathtub in the kitchen. The neighbors had a good view! That was an "adventure" also!

Thanks, Jeanne.  By the way, do you know anything about T Tree oil, or T Tree sap, or T Tree Tea?  Some of the support group people mentioned it, but I didn't know what they were talking about.  Do you?

Good Evening!

What is the world coming to? I walk into the new-ish location of Broadway Panhandler, and after browsing for about an hour, all I walk out with is a bottle of vanilla.  At least it was Nielsen-Massey, the good stuff.  ;)

But the new location is nice.  And it's part of a whole row of new storefronts, and right across from one of the new film centers.  They had a surprising amount of items on sale, but, somehow, I resisted.  However, I was intrigued by the "Onion Goggles" ("As seen on "Good Morning America").

DR TCB - When is your next doctor's appointment?  And, in the meantime, is there anyone you can call about the two new spots on your arm?

As for Tea Tree Oil - I keep a small container of it to use on scrapes, and to "refresh" my hands whenever they get dried out from the weather, too much dishwashing, etc.  I also use a Tea Tree Oil shampoo since it helps "calm" the scalp.  I know it has natural antiseptic properties, but I'm not sure just what type or kind of concentration you'd have to use in conjunction with treating MRSA.
