I think it's time for a
Page Two Dance!

DS Craig could use some mega travel vibes.  He attempted to check in on-line and it said he has to take the same flights tomorrow as he will miss his connection in San Francisco.  He just left for the airport.  If he can't get on the flight to SF he is screwed.  If he can get to SF there are multiple options to get him to his destination. 

We are shocked.  When Bryan's flight in SF was canceled simply put him on another flight out of SF which is what they normally do.

My faith in technology was greatly improved yesterday.  When visiting my mom at the rehab center yesterday, I dropped my iPhone into a puddle of water in the parking lot.  It was submerged!  I promptly picked it up and wrapped it in my handkerchief.  Then I did the one thing you are not supposed to do with a wet iPhone--I turned it on.  But wonder of wonders, it still worked!  However, I noticed that the sound coming out of the phone speaker was very low and the camera lens was wet on the inside which resulted in fuzzy images. 

I did a quick web search and found what to do next.  On the way home I stopped at the super market and bought a bag of rice.  When I got home, I shoved my phone into the rice and sealed it closed and left it there over night.  This morning the phone and camera were both fine.  I'll repeat this treatment for a few days.

I just hope it continues to work until the iPhone 5 comes out...

Travel vibes for Craig!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Thanks.  So far they worked.  He was able to check in without any problems.  His flight is a few minutes late but he could still make the connection.  He would prefer missing it and then getting put on the red eye to Connecticut.  At this point he is just happy to be flying to SF.

Phone Vibes!!!  I'm glad the rice worked.

[Jane]

Thanks Jennifer.  He still has a very long day & night ahead of him.  Hopefully he can get some sleep in the airport.

Still hot here in Istanbul. We had a few raindrops last night but the thunderstorm forecast for today didn't arrive, in fact it's been mainly sunny. Visited the magnificent Ayasofya, previously a mosque but now a museum, as well as the Blue Mosque. Rode on the vintage tram which runs along the main shopping street, Istiki Al Cad. Plus, of course, lots of eating and drinking is going on!

I hope you will share photos, DR Doug R! I have always thought Istanbul would be a magnificent place to visit!

[Jane]

From DR John G:

I leave for Albany in the morning for a few days' residency at school. Hope to get started on the book in earnest.

Wishing you safe & easy travels & a productive residency.  What is the name of the school?

[Jane]

DR Cilla great news the group was friendly & welcoming last night!

TARZAN IN FAIRYLAND

[Jane]

From DR George:

Thanks Jack and Ginny!  I survived ASTD.  It was actually pretty fun.  The keynote speaker was Garth Stein, who wrote (among others) "The Art of Racing In the Rain," a novel told from the point of view of a dog.  Not really spoilers here but he dies at the beginning of the book and I think it's about him telling about his life with his owners and something about dog reincarnation.  I bought a copy, but I missed getting his autograph.  Oh, well.  It does sound like a very good book, so I think I'll read it anyway.

Was he interesting?  I fought against reading this book & when I finally did was surprised I enjoyed it. 

[MBarnum]

And speaking of Tarzan, at the gym yesterday, after my workout, I went into the steam room followed by the tall, buff and completely nekkid young Fireman guy who also goes to my gym.

Before long there were about a half dozen other guys in the steamroom....which is about a half dozen more then normal.

After buff Fireman guy left, so did the others. Coincidence? I think not.

Just when I think you can go no lower, you never fail to amaze me!

the weird coincidence would be if they all left when you did!

I love you, Mikey!

Doug, I never have a prob doing an 80s or 90s score if it's something that I personally like and that I think will do well.  However, there are only a handful of 80s and 90s scores that I like and we've already done several of them, so no danger there.  Mostly it will be sixties and seventies for the next dozen releases, with a couple of 50s things.

DGD Yogi has been very good since Craig left, now that Keith just left Yogi has begun to whine.

He was interesting and funny and thoughtful...and quite attractive. Although, I didn't get to see him up close.

[Jane]

Last night we watched UNFORGETTABLE and, while not thrilled, have decided to give it another try.  Keith was very bothered by the use of "third person" to do the flashbacks.  I agree there are many other possibilities which would have worked better.

We also watched the delightful NEW GIRL.  Keith may have enjoyed it more than I did.

[MBarnum]

the only new show I have watched so far this season is 2 BROKE GIRLS, which I enjoyed. I plan on watching PAN AM when it airs.

[Jane]

I bet Craig could teach Yogi to do this.
