Well, you've read the notes, the notes were wacky, and now it is time for you to post until the wacky cows come home.

Nobody does a themeron like NYC does a themeron, and they do it there every day.

TOD -

I found it interetsing when, at the Liberace Museum in Vegas, at the portion of the exhibit with all the news clippings, a lady asked quite forcefully "Did he ever marry?"

(BTW:  Her friend answered, "You mean George?" referring to Liberace's brother.)

A funny conversation overheard was a co-worker talking to a woman on the phone:

"You don't want to talk to me?  What's the problem?  Come on, what did I do?  You're upset about something. Tell me.  (pause)  OK, goodbye, Mom!"

Lovely photos from DR LAURA.

Well DR JOSE I am glad you are thinking about going to see Adam's show.  I think he also works part time at the Duplex, so your friend Scott probably knows him.

Today is Saturday, and it is a work day.  Oh well.  More temps in the 90's expected with the possibility of thunderstorms.

TOD:

In line at the Dollar Tree.  Behind me two of the genius skateboarders from my area.....muzak playing.

SB 1:  That's Barry Manilow isn't it?
SB 2:  Yeh, my mom loves him.

Song playing:  Hello I Love You by The Doors.

I don't recall anything weird or outrageous that I've overhead.  [I'm sure there are a few, but they are lost in memory.]

However, I do remember the time that I stubbed my toe so badly that I thought I'd broken it.  I went to the emergency room.  The nurse looked at my royal purple toe and asked, "Is this the toe?"

I laughed so hard, the pain went away.

Of course, then there was the time that Eddie Cannizzaro confessed to me that he was the guy who pulled the trigger on "Bugsy" Siegel.

That was pretty outrageous...and also pretty scary.

It's a cleaning day here in Chelsea. We are washing the bedspread, the mattress topper, the curtains, the shears and the bathmat.

"Washing the bedspread" can be sung to the tune of "Waltzing Matilda" - if anyone's keeping track of such things.

Of course, I love my pancake quote that I have mentioned here a few times.

Also, one day Sandra and I were walking in a store and a young man and two young women passed us. He to said to them, "I didn't even put the fish on the shelf." We had no idea what he meant.

Good morning, all! I have a blood test as 10:45 and then I'm off to Toyland for some research, to drop off some books and papers, and to bring home a few items.

Tonight, I'm dining at Chez Josephine on 42nd Street with friends I've not seen in at least 5 years. I'm a bit embarrassed because I really wanted to go to Chez Napoleon and I gave them the wrong name! I'm too old to say blame it on my youth.

Saturday morning greetings!  Survived another 30 minutes with my aerobic dancing tape and will soon get cleaned up and start packing for our week in NYC.  Rob's here for the weekend and has told me that he thinks he has the cable we need to transfer my cassette to my iTunes library - yay!

The other thing I have to do today is send my "Save Ohio's Libraries" email to the 6 members of the Ohio House and Senate Conference Committees that are meeting tomorrow morning on the Governor's budget recommendations.  He seems not to have heard the outcry.

"I would like a small soda, please."
"We have medium, large, and extra-large."
"I would like the small one."
"That would be a medium."
"No, the medium would be the middle-sized one. I would like the small one."
"A medium."

This continued for a while.

TOD - Overheard near the OBCR section at Joseph-Beth Booksellers in Cincinnati, a teenage boy trying to impress a teenage girl with his musical theatre knowledge:  "This is The Fantasticks - can you believe it was written by TOM JONES?"  I didn't have the heart to tell him it's a different Tom Jones.  He also said the only piece of scenery is a step-ladder, so I gave him the benefit of the doubt.
