I could have put those however many posts into one, but then we'd still be on page 4

Oh I'm just a little ahead of you...I'm slogging through the espionage stuff.  I don't find that especially interesting.

I was surprised I didn't slog through any of the book and enjoyed every bit of it.  I would have to read them both again to confirm my opinion book two is the best. 


This was near the beginning of the third book...I'm just not that into the Sapo stuff


Am I the only person left on this planet (besides MBarnum) who is not going to read these three books?

Yes

Ya got me, baby!

DR MBarnum would only read it if it was part of the Dick and Jane series. Or has he moved up to the Bobbsey Twins?

If your brothers won't allow a realtor, how the Hell do they expect the property to sell?

Act of God, I think. They can be so stupid!

DR Elmore could you put an ad in the local paper or the nearest city paper advertising the property for sale?

At one point, Jo listed it on Craig's List but nothing happened. The problem is, those two do it all, from mowing the weeds to checking on the property, because the Macbeths won't get off their fat asses to do anything. They were a complete waste during my settling the estate and only spoke up when they decided I was doing it poorly. I don't have the energy to waste in loathing them. I just want them dead.

So, I just sealed a Priority Mail package of McGlinn memorabilia for his sister Lorin in Denver. I'll mail it in the morning.

The taxi driver who drove me from the McGlinnventory to Toyland told me that a policeman had been killed somewhere around Park Avenue and the 30s, but I've heard nothing about it on the news tonight.

I also read two the Amazon reviews for LIFE BEGINS AT 8:40; I was dying to respond and bring up the fact that not all of the album is conducted by the person credited on the cover. Did I say that?

Nice review, BK!

It was positive which I liked, but I agree with DR Charles Pogue that it wasn't enough about the book. I was then completely floored when BK said he thought he'd just made some sales because of it.

I would swear, but I'm vague after 30 years, that Joy Behar was our opening act when I was MD and arranger for the trio "Just Good Friends" when we played all the cabarets in Manhattan between 1980 and 1982. We even got a nice notice and a huge picture (clothed) in BLUEBOY magazine in October 1981. I was 29 years and 60 lbs younger then.

Thanks Jane.  I was about 90 percent sure I would be appointed and the chair of the commission was talking like I was already on it, but I didn't really believe it until I saw it on the consent agenda...meaning no vote or discussion needed

The grocery store was selling alcohol already included packs of margaritas, pina coladas etc that you just put in your freezer and take out when you want one.   Since they were 3 for $5 I bought one of three different drinks and will try them this weekend.  if I like them, I will definitely stock up for summertime cooling and relaxation
