Wednesday morning greetings!  Our tornado sirens sounded just before 1am and again just past 1:30 and we had a doozy of a thunderstorm.  High winds, but no trip to Oz.  Speaking of trips, I'm off today to Cleveland after going with Mom to visit my aunt (her sister).  Today is Aunt Jo's 82nd birthday.

A Very Happy 82nd Birthday to Aunt Jo!! ;D

And it turns that I did not get totally edited out of last night's "Eat St." episode which features the Big Gay Ice Cream Truck. You see my back in two shots, and you see my hand holding one of the cones! ;) So, just in case you missed meit, here's the (US) broadcast schedule for Episode 102.

*They also feature the Brunch Box food cart in Portland, OR. -And their Redonkadonk Burger.


-Yes, those are grilled cheese sandwiches acting as the "bun".

Now, that's just ridiculous. :P

Unbelievable but true department:  the new house came with a "home warranty," albeit one so expensive (due to the size of the home) that we agreed to pay half of the yearly fee ourselves.  (Usually the seller pays it all).  Anyhoo, made three service calls during the year and quickly found out they cover next to nothing.  The third call was for a faulty light switch which I told them worked intermittently.  They dispatched the electrician and he could not make it malfunction.  He called AHS and their "service counselor" (that's a laugh and a half) told him NOT to make any repairs.  Due to that, I opted not to renew coverage.  Lo and behold, what should arrive yesterday but a BILL for the service call!!!  I called their 800 number and got a snotty operator who hung up on me.  So I looked up their corporate HQ and got through to the snotty assistant to the President who was quite full of attitude until I asked what state they were incorporated in and who their corporate counsel was.  The snotty assistant claims the fee has been waived ;), but we shall see. 

We had AHS when we lived in Los Angeles, and we were very unhappy with the service.

The technicians were always looking for an excuse to claim that the problem was not covered by the warranty.

That way, they could charge their regular fee...and AHS would always back them up.

DR Jose "Eli" reminds me of Sherlock when he doesn't want to move.  Yesterday knowing I would be backtracking a section of the trail I put a leash on him.  As soon as I began the backtrack I got yanked to a sudden stop, turned around to see Sherlock's feet firmly planted into the ground with that "now way!" expression on his face.  ;D  We did go the way I wanted. :)

I wonder if this is how DD SHERLOCK wrote up the incident on his blog?

Actually, I believe DD Sherlock wrote:  "No way was I going one more step before I was asked sweetly, so I dug in until she turned and looked to see what was happening.  I gave her my 'Oh, really?' look.  She smiled and said sweetly: 'Come on Sherlock, darling!  Mommy needs a little backtracking.'  So, I relented.  After all, what's a DD to do?"

Good luck the bill was truly waived.

I know there are some "Over Here" fans in our midst. If you are one of them, go over to bluegobo.com. The new video posted today is of Donna McKechnie and Wayne Cilento doing "Charlie's Place." The dancing is great, but the cameraman doesn't seem to know how to photograph dancing. The cuts are weird, but the extended piece, with Patricia Birch's choreography, really kicks.

Just looked up AHS on the BBB site.  Thousands of complaints, and yet they still have an A+ rating.  What's wrong with that picture?

Good Afternoon!

Well... The sun is trying to make an appearance in the skies above New York City. Alas, it looks like the sun's efforts will just end up resulting in a brief thunderstorm later.

Does any DR know if that whole "Best of Broadway"/American Dance Machine special is available on DVD?I seem to remember Wayne Cilento performing "I Can Do That" from A Chorus Line, as well as the original trio of girlfriends performing "You Could Drive A Person Crazy" from Company.

As far as I know, it's not.  I have the (purchased, not a copy) videotape and my sister's boyfriend made a DVD of it with a nifty chaper menu.

I just received my first ever shipment from Godiva, an indulgence I gave into since eBates was having a 10% special.  They ship everything in a cool little custom Godiva "cooler" replete with reusable freezer packs!

Greetings from Ohio's North Coast!  Well, I'm not quite on the coast, but about 8 miles from the shores of Lake Erie.  It's an easy drive from here to where tomorrow's meeting is being held.  I don't have to leave here until about 11am.

I'm not surprised about the warranty company. We had a not-good experience when we bought our house. They couldn't understand why we declined to continue the coverage.

ASK BK

When considering albums from UA/MGM did you consider A Funny THing Happened On the Way To Th Forum? If you did was the rewritten FREE part of the masters? Was there any other Sondheim score other than The Chase  there too?

The other two dogs hadn't been groomed yet which is why Sherlock looks much brighter.
