Possible T.O.D.


I am sure that we have already done this topic a few dozen times, but


"
What is your Number #1 comfort food?"


I would have to say tuna casserole.  It is kind of like wrapping a cocoon around me.  The other number one choice used to be my mother's Tamale Pie, but I don't have the recipe.

This was just to weird not to post.

Listening to the radio on my way back from Out of the Closet just now.  I got a chance to listen to News of the Weird (great segment, one of the reasons I just bought an extreme range radio this week), anyway one of the :

A newspaper in Bangladesh apologized for having taken articles from "The Onion" (I think everyone knows what paper that is) and reporting them as real.  Mainly Neil Armstrong saying that the moon landing was all a hoax, and various other articles that relate to world events.

Some things just baffle me to no end.

Oh....I see.....thanks, DR DRUXY.  I didn't know that.  Her image belongs to her, unless they are using it to promote the film it was taken for.  Interesting.

All of this came about via the "Astaire bill".

http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117503887.html?categoryid=18&cs=1

The final bill was totally watered down from what is discussed in this Variety piece.  As passed into law, all that is really affected is commercial advertisements.

BTW: If you look down toward the bottom of the article, under "Burden of Proof," you might find a name that you recognize.

Good Morning! Good Afternoon!

I'm up, I'm up.... And I spent the first part of this day watching "Enchanted" and "Bedtime Stories" with my niece, Alexandra.  Quite a nice way to spend a Labor Day Sunday.

And this week's print edition of The Onion is particularly good.  Some of the feature stories include...

Sunday afternoon greetings!  We're back from Lima, where Richard conducted a lovely Deacon's mass and took me to lunch at Panera.  He slept most of the way home while I drove.

I hope DRs Vixmom and The Vixter are having fun, fun, fun at Avenue Q!

My Grandma Tucker (my mother's mother) and I used to play canasta.  Haven't found anyone to play with since she died more than 20 years ago.

I've had the best day thuis for in the last six weeks. The hands cramps, which were pretty bad for the last two days, have not been a problem today, and it's the closest to normal I've felt in a long while. Not out of the woods yet by any means, but I am so encouraged.
