I am SO frustrated with the friggin' Oregonian.  They have been so inconsistent in getting Rave in the Nave performance announcements in the paper.  I sent them a complete EPK on Daniel Stein, one of the most prominent modern theater people (albeit in a niche genre--corporeal mime).  The guy is a Guggenheim Fellow, has NEA grants up the ying-yang, teaches at Juilliard, is here for one night only doing an internationally acclaimed show, and the Oregonian gives him a tiny calendar announcement, while they spend pages of newsprint on people who are here all year round (not that that's a bad thing, but still....).  And they wonder why people are cancelling their subscriptions in droves.

The good news is the Jewish Review did a full page write up, and one of the neighborhood papers, The Beaverton Valley Times, also did a great feature on Daniel.  But, boy, am I steaming mad at the Oregonian this morning.  I'd like you all to cancel your subscriptions.  :)

How about if we all call the Oregonian and say that we WERE going to subscribe, but we won't because of this controversy??

;D

The Game Warden has come and gone. He found no sign of crawdads or turtles or bullfrogs.

This is good-yes?  I know turtles & bullfrogs eat fish so you don't want them.  I don't know anything about crawdads.

DR Vixmom you said you were going to be good about leaving work early, not that I truly believed you. ;) Please take care of yourself.

How is your father?  Continued good vibes for you both.

I find this scary.  It looks as if Monkey is about to be eaten, and that statue alone could give me nightmares.

I was thinking of "If I only had a mouth..." to the tune of "If I only had a brain"

But how many words rhyme with mouth?

Paging DR FJL...

Just talked to jhvw. He said that David is still doing well and has actually gotten out of bed already!..

Jon said he tried to get on HHW most of the day, but because of the storm there the wireless wasn't very good at the hospital. He was driving as we spoke and he said there are trees down everywhere, the big TV antenna at the tv station he used to work at fell down and many cell phone towers are down.  They have power at the house, but no cable or phone service. so he can't get on the internet there.

He's going to stop by as soon as he can get a good internet connection. He said thanks to everyone for being so supportive today.

DR Cilla thank you for the update.  I'm shocked David got out of bed-WOW! :)

With that mess all around them thank goodness the power still works.  I hope his cell phone does too.

I'm shocked too. He isn't walking anywhere, but just standing.  I think it was only for a moment.
Jon's cell phone was going as we spoke. He's going to charge it when he gets home.  He sounds exhausted and relieved.  He's going back up to see David this evening and then will go home for the night.  My guess is they will all sleep well tonight!

Great news, Cillaliz. Man, they don't let you rest for a second after surgery any more, do they?

Will you have another report after his evening visit to the hospital?

I'm guessing yes. Jon will either be here (HHW) or give me a call...unless he falls asleep first.  I can tell he's really exhausted

Actually, I've been worried and am very relieved, but have been so physically exhausted from all the work I did around the house that I slept very well the past two nights. I'm looking forward to sleeping in tomorrow and then Sunday will be up very early to do the 5K walk.  BTW, I'm almost positive I'm in the top 10 fundraisers, so I should be getting some sort of sparkling prize on Saturday after the walk.   I picked up my t-shirt and number today.  I'm really looking forward to this

I've been enjoying the posts from various parts of the world!! 

Nothing new here.  I'm off to dinner with my injured french horn player and then it's off to another evening of The King and I - which is still making me cry every night!

DR Cilla to be in the top 10 fundraisers is impressive.  Great job!  I wonder what they will give you.  Isn't there some kind of gift bag everyone gets?

Greetings from Florence (Kentucky, not Italy)!  Richard and I arrived in time to move into our hotel room and get to CVG to pick up his seminary classmate from California who's here for the ordination.  We met Rob and Mary Linda at the Montgomery Inn Boathouse on the Ohio River for a fabulous dinner of barbecued ribs, chips, and Graeter's ice cream.  Showed Dennis some of Cincinnati and brought Rob & ML back here for a luncheon logistics briefing.  I'm ready to crash.
