I'm halfway through But He Doesn't Know The Territory.  I'll probably finish it after the work session today.

BK, next time I am in town I am taking you to an Indian place to have some mild food. I never have the really spicy stuff.

DR Elmore, was your nutritionist happy with your recent sugar levels?

For the most part, yes.

TOD:

A few weeks ago, I ordered one of my favorite sandwiches at a local market.  The Creamy Chicken Salad.  The person asked for my first name, so I told her, "Kerry."  

So I heard her giving my order to the person who makes the sandwiches, and she said "A Chicken Curry Sandwich."  I told her that I had ordered the Chicken Salad sandwich and my name was Kerry and that if she gave me the Chicken Curry Salad that I would just have to sit down right there and cry.

I had/have no problem with spicy food - I regularly eat spicy Chinese food dishes, etc.  This was so beyond anything any normal human being could take - I mean, this literally killed the taste buds and set me on fire.  At that point, it's ridiculous, don't you think?



Yes, though Indian food can be very spicy.  We always order mild & find it delicious.  The boys order spicy to extreme.  Someone still should have suggested more appropriate cooling agents when you were suffering.  Likely today they would be more helpful/knowledgeable.

I think there are two left - Sherman Oaks and Sunset Blvd. (maybe the one in Brentwood is still there - not sure).

Nope, that was the one near my brother.  Is Beverly Hills gone?  What is there now?

DR Ron,  ;D  I can't disagree with your spoilers, only had a milder reaction to your complaints.  And I was aware of them while watching, just focused more on the emotion.

Hmmm...  I bank with WaMu.  Should I not any more?

Unless you have MEGA, MEGA bucks I wouldn’t be too concerned.  Your money should be there.  It is sad people are rushing to get their money which can create a problem that didn’t exist.

There is some speculation JP Morgan will purchase WaMu.

Off to deposit some money INTO our WaMu account.

The rain has stopped but the coolness remains. I actually turned off the attic fan and just let the cool air come in naturally. I'm sitting next to the open window in my office, and it's just heaven.

In the midst of three or four lengthy phone calls this afternoon, I didn't quite get all four of the CRIMINAL MINDS episodes I had hoped to watch today finished. I still have about half an hour left on one of them. And there are some deleted scenes for two of the episodes I've yet to watch.

Hopefully tonight, I can get all four remaining episodes watched on disc five and then the remaining featurettes and be done with this box set.

Dennis Christopher is the primary guest star on the episode I'm currently watching. He usually plays creeps now, so it wouldn't surprise me if he's somehow involved with the case.

I did have time to scan quickly through AS THE WORLD TURNS. Nothing and nothing in the previews.

I thought I'd put it behind me mentally, because things have turned out quite well for me job-wise, but you never forget those who cheated you, i guess -

Having allegedly (in a legal battle where they managed to scare off my employment-law attorney) been hoodwinked by AIG's personnel person's lies out of many tens of thousands of dollars in stock options, but having faced a brick wall in an industry which then felt AIG was a noble organization, I'm personally glad to see that AIG is going through trouble, and that I sold pretty much all my AIG stock a long long time ago.

I've been thinking about this; now that colleges and schools are back in session, I don't think the producers care about their late teen/young adult audience. Ehat's his face didn't even show up today to rescue his littkle brother.

Makes perfect sense, and thanks for sharing. I hadn't even considered that, but it's certainly understandable.

Now, I've got to write for a bit and then head back down to try to finish CRIMINAL MINDS tonight. I may have to wait and watch FRINGE tomorrow if I'm not close to finishing it when it's time to start watching on the DVR.

The September edition of Grantseeking Basics is history.  I only have to teach this class 3 more times!
