Thanks Jrand for the virus tip. Of course my email address book works by the name you type it, so I had to readjust it 3 times so that the 000 one came first (I had some addresses with no name that went to the top).

I can attest to the sublime loveliness of Bogie the cat - and he's sweet and friendly and so dear! I do love him. I can also attest to the raucous, piercing quality of DR Jane's laugh... worse in public - ohmygosh, don't get her started! Really something, ummm, individual, shall we say?

And I reckon, with a ten-hour drive, I'll arrive in Ashland around 6 or 7 pm. Shall I bring anything?

LOL &

I asked Keith if my laugh is really that bad. He said “it can be”. I really have learned to control it, especially in public with a little assistance from Keith’s fist in my arm. Half teasing aside (he hasn’t done that in 30 years), if I don’t control my laugh I hyperventilate. That is the point when my laugh fits Penny’s description, but it is also very scary when I can’t catch my breath.

No need to bring anything-thanks.

Just got in from a day long series of meetings and am too pooped to do more than check in and am now going to sit in front of the television and veg out.

Yes, some of us are QUEER AS FOLK regulars even if we are disappointed oftentimes with the show. Growing up, I never thought I'd live to see a program broadcast on television with predominantly gay characters, so I will continue to watch and hope for imrpovements.

The walk ended in the Botanical Gardens. Here is one of the beautiful flowers

The aids walk was much larger than our little Ashland MS walk yesterday.

Michael Shayne, I copied this off the hotels.com site.

Three Stars (First Class)

Typically these hotels offer more spacious accommodations that include well appointed rooms and decorated lobbies. Bellhop service is usually not available. They are often located near major expressways or business areas, convenient to shopping and moderate to high priced attractions. The hotels usually feature medium-sized restaurants that typically offer service breakfast through dinner. Room service availability may vary. Valet parking, fitness centers and pools are often provided.
Typical National Chain: Holiday Inn, Hilton.

Typically may be the key word here. Next time try a rating service first such as AAA, Fodor's, Michelin and other's that do not sell hotel space.

Garlic mashed potatoes are too good to top with gravy.

That kind of depends on the "gravy." I sauteed some mushrooms and shallots in some canola oil, added some flour to make a roux, added some broth and fresh thyme, and let it simmer for a while. The gravy helped revitalize the roast pork, and complemented the mashed without overpowering the garlic.

Sounds yummy but I do like my garlic patatoes plain.

Off to watch WHITE OLEANDER.

Goodnight.

Penny do you want to go out to the restaurant again? Keith is in the mood for a perfect Grey Goose Gibson.

Chat was chatty and charming. I'm now going to check out the newest KRITZER TIME review.

Yes, Ted Casablanca's real name is Bruce Bibby. He was at one time one of Harvey Fierstein's amours.

I'm here BK!

But I have very little to say.

The power went off in my neighbourhood this evening just as ALIAS was getting to its big cliff-hanger finale.

I don't watch the show, but my younger sister follows it religiously. I swear - I thought she had hurt herself or something given how pained her scream was.

I still am craving cheese flavoured popcorn but have yet to find any.

My family held its first barbecue this season. It was nice and hamburgey.

Nice review for Kritzer Time, Ben.

I've got PBS on in the BG. It's begging time and Dr. Wayne Dryer (I think that's his name), some big New Age guru, is spouting such uttter bullshit. (Can I say that on this here family site? I just did, I guess.) People like him make me furious.

Panni · « **Reply #145 on:** April 18, 2004, 08:28:20 PM »

"How corroded is the link between you and the level of intention?" the good doctor has just asked. These idiots make you believe that whatever happens to you in life, you attract - negativity breeds illness, for example. Tell that to someone dying of cancer. Arrrrgh. His name is Dyer, not Dryer. He says you should move away from people who are negative or have low energy because they "bring you down." ...That's a generous way to live. Once again...AAARGGHHH.

Can anyone here parse that sentence? It doesn't even make sense!

No kiddding? That's what motivational speaking is all about. Sounds good, unless you really think about it. Here's another gem that just jumped out of the good doctor's mouth. And I quote:

"Every thought that you have that is other than that which you eminated from is resistance."

Panni · « **Reply #148 on:** April 18, 2004, 08:40:38 PM »

This guy is VERY popular, sells tons of books, tapes. Everyone is looking for the road to happiness. The formula.
I know quite a bit about the world of motivational speakers and it's a strange one, to say the least.

I feel like Hamlet, monologue-wise that is.
