Is there anything good on TV on Wednesday night?

Miami University vs. Bowling Green State University on ESPN2 - watch for our niece on the Miami sideline!

Hey!  Did you know that Miami University was not in Florida?

There's a Miami t-shirt that says, "Miami was a University before Florida was a state."

DR Elmore - whew!

BTW, today I ordered 2 Central Pastry orange chiffon cakes to take to church on Sunday for coffee hour.  We're celebrating Fr. Richard's Saturday birthday and that was his request.  We'll also go to the Meadows for dinner on Saturday.

And now, I'm off to usher for a tour of The Color Purple.  I've been waiting to see this...and I get to see it for free!

Be back later!

Has the game already started?

Kick-off was 8pm, EST.  Miami just scored a touchdown and I just caught a glimpse of Lauren - she's wearing a gray knit cap and is usually carrying the water bottle caddy.


Is she on the Florida sidelines?

Something like that, DR TCB...

Good news re: little Ricky.

Thanks for those who gave vibes. I am feeling almost good as new today. But boy was I scared last night.  I guess the expired pills worked.

Great to hear.  May I have one of those pills?  I really don't need one as Tylenol is working fairly well if I keep taking it.  I've had mild migraines with mild nausea on and off for over a week now.  It seems to be worse in the early morning hours interrupting my sleep.  My guess is my broken eye glasses and/or the new meds are causing it. 

I'm sure you could probably get them. It's fiorinal.

Re: "Dancing With the Stars"


Does anyone think Bristol Palin's resilience has to do with the hopeful optimism that she seems to exude despite her personal, graceless clunkiness?

Or is she being propped up by the same sort of cabal that saw Taylor Hicks through to winning American Idol a few years back?

I really hope that she doesn't make it to the finals.  She seems nice enough. But she really can't dance and I do not enjoy watching her dance. I don't even think she looks like she is having fun.

I honestly do not think that she will win. I mean how can she?  It would be one thing if she wasn't quite as good but still fun and entertaining. But she's not.

I don't even find she seems hopeful. More like shocked that she's still around.

Kurt Warner wasn't that good either.  I don't think she should win. But I'm kind of amused she's still there

I think some people are powervoting for the worst to try to get her to win.

I actually don't find it amusing. Maybe we'll be lucky and she'll get voted out this week. I think a lot of people will be mad if she gets in to the F3 over Kyle.

It was sort of weird driving tonight.

I won't say my head hurt today. but there was a slight headache sensation. And tonight driving I noticed all the blaring lights were bothering me a bit.

Man, it feels like it's nine o'clock already.  I did hear from my tape transfer guy who's coming by at eleven to drop off CDs of what's been transferred.  He tells me that there's about ninety-nine minutes of stuff, but that probably includes pauses and all that jazz, so maybe eighty or eighty-five is more like it - I'll know as soon as I load them into iTunes.  The original album on this title runs around thirty-five minutes, so I'm quite sure we've hit a little bonanza here, at least that's the hope.  Since it's been out on CD before, the decision will be whether to just do an entirely new presentation in film order and not bother with the original LP presentation, or whether to include the original LP - I suppose if we have to go to two CDs we'll do it all.

TCB, your story reminds me of the LOOOOONG joke about the priest and rabbi who decide to have a contest about converting a bear to their religion.  The joke goes on forever, but the punch line is the rabbi saying, "Next time, I won't start with the circumcision."
A cutting remark.

Back from the funeral and a short visit to the house - the funeral was attended by at least five to six hundred people.  Parking was madness, but we got there about five minutes after the service had begun.  I'm not big on the service part, but Michelle's husband Steve spoke eloquently and wonderfully, with humor and warmth, Howard McGillan sung Ave Maria, and Reece Holland sang for good.  There was a very long period where everyone took communion or whatever it is - the wafer thing - all five hundred people (well, not all).  It was nice.  Then I went and got the helper started and then went to Steve and Michelle's gorgeous Toluca Lake home.  I didn't know that many people, but Michael Caprio was there (he worked at Varese most of the time I was there), and Joan Ryan.  I was fine until I saw Steve - he hugged me and was so effusive about the work Michelle and I had done and I could literally not speak.  I was there about fifteen minutes, then had to get back home to give Juliana A. Hansen a tape of her music.

This made me teary eyed.  Again, I'm sorry for your loss of such a special person.

This afternoon I returned to physical therapy after a bit of a break.  The therapist was very pleased with my improved self, thanks to fun in the sun & water Maui trip.  He said I've done much better than most people with the same surgery & that I'm 90% improved.  I was very excited hearing the 90% figure until I realized he was saying I have 10% left to go.  Ten percent over what I have isn't all that great.

BK - I didn't realize when I was in touch with you before this evening that you'd just gotten back from the funeral. 

I'd been E&T today, so didn't realize the intensity of the day

Has anyone read THE ECHO MAKER by Richard Powers?  It has been offered as a book choice along with MARCH by Brooks.  So far I have avoided reading MARCH & am wondering if between the two I might prefer MARCH.

FJL no worries - I was just trying to be amusing but apparently that didn't come across, which could be because I'm trying to put Michelle into a loving place in my memory and just move on.

DR Edi - last night you were talking about the cable company.  I think the reason I'm really irritated is that it worked fine up until very recently, until my neighbor started doing his work....I don't really want to blame him, but I'm wondering if they've done something that has caused interference with the signal.   

The guy who came out also irritated me because he clearly didn't want to do much to see what the problem was.  He just changed the cord and said that would fix it.  Oh, well.  I'm going to have to call them back tomorrow and change it from Friday afternoon to another time. I've got two appointments scheduled and I'm not going to leave work for them
