I've been having a fun day visiting with relatives I haven't seen since I was 10 or 11. I also heard some family stories I never heard before. I think my mother also never heard them to pass along.

I'm heading down now to get some sleep.

Good night!

Don't know if I mentioned it yet, but my KitchenAid food processor arrived today!!! It's the one I cashed in my frequent flyer miles to get. It's even nicer than I thought it would be. I'm very excited to start using it. I will wait, however, until I get back from my reunion

DR Cillaliz - Speaking from experience: Those blades are sharp. Very sharp. If you do find yourself hand-washing them, you may want to invest in some of those "Orca" gloves to protect your fingers and hands.

Thanks for the advice..I'll check into that

If there was ever a reason to drop the whole "Broadway" dance, that was it! Truly cringe-inducing, verging on the edge of insulting.

Oh, Amy! You must, simply MUST see the series finale of NEWHART! (not THE BOB NEWHART SHOW, though Emily Hartley's appearance makes it that finale as well in a post-modern way)! It's one of the most humorous episodes of any television series, what with the Japanese coming into Vermont to build a golf course and of course, the "Japanese food before bed" routine.

Yes, Mark says it's one of the most famous finales ever. He thinks I might be able to find it on YouTube or something like that. I'll try. Hmmmm..."Japanese food before bed"...sounds like a BRUCE KIMMEL song. No wait...that's "Chinese Food in Bed." Sorry.

I still remembering watching this with some friends, and truly laughing out loud during the final scene...

And then I had to explain to my friends why the ending was so funny.

I remember watching it, too, and laughing and laughing and laughing

Time for me to get to bed. I haven't done anything to get ready to leave tomorrow to go to my reunion. I have a hearing in the morning, so I'm hoping that doesn't last too long and I can get home and pack the car and hit the road.

Night

My nose won't stop running. Does anyone know anything to take that makes your nose stop running (and sinuses stop hurting).

It can't make you drowsy. So it can't be something like sudafed. Because things that cause drowsiness make me unable to function for like 24 hours.

So far i've been doing advil cold and sinus. Only it doesn't really make my nose stop running.

Jennifer, there are several homeopathic sinus remedies available. I am currently taking one by Gripp-Heel. I used to take on by Natura-Bio, which I swore by. Both are very good--effective and no side-effects. You should be able to find one under $10 (US).

Thanks for reminding me of the homeopathic alternatives. For some reason i never remember to think of that!

You writing this reminded me that i have rhus toxicodendron, which i'm pretty sure is what i got for my lower back last year. It has been acting up again (not terribly). But it has been bothering me for a couple of weeks enough so that when i lift anything it hurts. Do you think it would help (what i have)?

Thanks.

Jennifer, Rhus Tox is known as the "rusty gate" remedy, meaning that it helps those muscle problems that feel better after movement. Arnica is the remedy of choice for acute sprains and bruises when they first occur. Rhus Tox is often prescribed a bit later--say, after a few days on Arnica. Since you have the Rhus Tox on hand and it helped before, I would give it a try.

To all who are experiencing muscular problems I would recommend 100 mg of magnesium daily, preferably taken on an empty stomach. It's estimated that 75% of North Americans have a magnesium deficiency, and I am convinced that it is responsible for many of the fibromyalgia cases, as well as playing a role in many others. There is very little downside. Many people swear by Epsom salt baths; Epsom salts are simply magnesium. A magnesium gel is also available, which is applied topically. Much has been published about the many benefits of magnesium, but unfortunately, the information has not been adequately disseminated.

Arnica wouldn't be a bad choice right now, either, if you feel you re-strained it.

I have been watching AIN'T MISBEHAVIN'--the British mini-series from the 1990's. I loved it. Lots of Big Band music and written by Bob Larbey, who wrote the PBS AS TIME GOES BY. Really a joy.

It also includes the loveliest version of A NIGHTINGALE SANG IN BARKLEY SQUARE.

My DH still thinks leisure suits are great. In fact, when we needed to go to a fancy soiree a couple of months ago, he was planning on wearing his. "Honestly, Dear, I don't know where it is."

...And as the smoke rose up from the Weber grill in the backyard...

LOL!

Just in from a lovely dessert & chat with the adorable DRs FJL an (the errant and truant) Julie. I think everyone's ears should have been burning! I've said it before, but it bears repeating: the folks at HHW are the nicest people it has been my pleasure to meet.

What could possibly have happened??

bk · « **Reply #285 on:** July 30, 2009, 11:43:28 PM »

I have to make a very difficult decision about about our next release - as mentioned, I discovered the original score tracks (in mono) - fifty minutes of never before released music (this is part of the two-fer we'll be announcing next week, and this album was a re-recording). Once you've heard the original score tracks, the album is sort of a joke as all the music has been rearranged for the album and little of the dramatic scoring is there (think the Mancini albums from the 60s). So, I can put about sixteen minutes of bonus material, but that is basically only two tracks from the score, and the historian and collector in me wants to include everything - and the only way to do that is to do a standalone release on this one title - but the contract and check are already in and it would be a pain to change that and I don't want to be a pain. The other option is to go to two CDs and not raise the price - that's real value for money, I think - you still get the two-fer on one CD, and then on the second CD you get the entire original score tracks to one of the films. So, that's the decision I have to make - it would be easy except the costs go up for a two-CD set and since I wouldn't raise the price, my profit margin, which is slim, goes down. But if I can get my big online dealer to commit to at least 600 then I'll probably go that route.

Hope it's a two-fer.

Vibes for a very difficult decision.

Nothing in my day was exciting.

Except laughing at the 10 pages of wonderful posts.
