There is a hilarious thread on JMK's bluray.com about The Egyptian. The experts there (yeah) have figured out how to tell how many copies of the blu-ray are left by putting 1500 copies in their cart (I am not kidding here) and somehow this has told them that there are only around 1000 copies left. Nick and I discussed it and we decided it would be a good idea to introduce a little reality into the discussion - SAE has no counters or any way for anyone to figure out what number has been sold of any limited edition. Period. But on these people go. Furthermore, Nick told me it's sold around 1200 units so far. So, I posted that info and wouldn't you know, no one wants to believe it - you could offer signed affidavits and they wouldn't believe it. SAE doesn't HAVE 3000 units at this time, they have 2000. Since there are approximately 800 of that 2000 left, you get a total. I have now ascertained that it is virtually impossible for anyone on those discussion boards to actually admit they're wrong. How hard is that? Lord amighty. I must jog before I vomit on the ground.

Good morning, all! Yes, indeedy, it's too freakin' hot! I have to go to Toyland this morning for another round with the scanner. Hopefully, the 2nd Entr'Acte will be waiting for me, so I'm taking the original score for that with me so I can edit it there in the A/C.

Last night's dream, which I cannot remember well, featured as its hero our DR FJL, who risked his life to ensure that a power failure provoked by the villains in the dream did not prevent a happy occurrence from happening. I neither remember what the happy event was, nor why the villans wanted to prevent its happening, but I do remember DR FJL and finding reasons to get the owner,manager of a huge hardware store out of the way so we could investigate methods of getting to the power cables, and I remember DR FJL hangign upside down from a fire escape trying to repair things. Who knew, Fred?

Was Mbarnum asleep on the same fire escape?

Jane, I hope I never need the Pixie Stix for diabetics, but I'm going to be carrying it with me. And I've put some in the glove box, too.

What about food to keep you balanced before you need the Pixie Stix? I carried carrots for the sugar boost & peanuts for protein.

Sherlock went to a dog groomer for the first time. The new pet store has a nice set up in the back without cages. The dogs go at their appointed times & are picked up after they are done. He loves to visit there and see his Bernese Mt. Dog friend who is a real sweetheart. I hope after the bath he is just as excited to visit again. The groomer commented a number of times, along with examples, of how good he was.

My paycheck today was one half my normal check. I have had so many "stupid leave without pay " days that it worked out to a one wek check instead of one half a month. I am not sure how I am going to explain this to my landlord, the power company, the credit union (oh I guess they know), the phone company, etc., etc., etc.

I'm up after a fitful night of sleep, which I am NOT happy about. At one in the morning, all by its lonesome, the jets in the Jacuzzi went on. I thought it was someone outside idling his motorcycle. When I figured out what the sound was, I saw that "spa" was lit up on the remote control in the bedroom. I pressed the button to turn it off and it would not turn off. I went outside and tried to turn it off with the button that's IN the Jacuzzi. That didn't work either. Just before getting back into bed, I pushed the button in the house and it turned off. For six minutes, at which point on it went and stayed on all the livelong night. It's still on. I woke up at five-thirty because on top of that noise, the sprinklers went on (they're supposed to) - I feel asleep at six and probably would have slept till eleven had the telephonic device not rung with a totally unnecessary call from an idiot who's been asking for one copy of Pirates for the last three days - I've told him repeatedly that if I HAVE one in the emergency stash, I have to find it and that I'd let him know. So, I'm overtired and when I get like this the chance that I'll get sick rises a lot. So, I have to try and get some sleep later today and tonight I'm going to bed at eleven. The Handy Man is on his way to see what he can do about turning these damn jets off. If he has to he'll shut the pool stuff down at the breaker, but I don't really want that, although it may reset everything and that would be good. If not, I have to let the business managers of the owner know, and they won't do anything for weeks. I don't know if the pool man knows about this stuff, and he doesn't come till next Wednesday.

Bk, go for a big bowl of chicken soup today for your meal. Then later have some fruit. And go to bed early tonight!

I'm so sorry. Is that due to your days off due to doctor visits & sick days?

All this growling is very hard to listen to. The kittens, that is.

Come to Portland. Temperate and actually on the cool side.

Now you can be as irritating about the cool weather to the New York dear readers as you were to me when we were having 115 heat index weather

My post should have followed Laura's but as usual it took way to long to get it to post. I don't know why I'm the only one having consistent problems maneuvering this site. I don't have the same delays & problems with any other sites I use.

Maybe it was Jane talking about the cool weather when it was 115 here. It wasn't intended to be irritating, but when it's 115 and someone is talking about how cool it is, well it's a bit irritating. That's all

Laura · « **Reply #113 on:** July 22, 2011, 04:54:57 PM »

It's just awful. They are growling, and they are ... screaming is the best way to describe it. Sunshine and Purrcy are having the hardest time, it seems.

You all growling about the weather isn't bothering me.

I think they have changed anesthesias. I only had this happen once before, and it was two kittens growling at each other. All six plus mom is awful. I don't have room to separate them all.

Well it sure wasn't me and when we share what the weather is like where we live I find it interesting not irritating. You want irritating? Rainiest "spring/summer" in over 117 years here. 10 days so far this year with temps above 70. That's irritating.

Will you be letting them know the kittens reacted to the change? I'm sorry you can't separate them all. What about just a few for a little while?
