Big Brother is Your Friend....





Vixdad and I want to get a gift certificate for his sister for Christmas from a store in her town on Canada -  but we could not remember the name of the store  BUT we know how to get there --- we went on Google maps  found the block   went to street view - found the store - found out it's  name  - Google supplied the full address and phone number and voila! We were able to arrange the matter!


thank you Google maps!

 good for you!!  Are you seeing an improvement?


The main problem I have is the loss of feeling in the left leg and foot.  But it was when I lost the feeling in the right foot that caused me to stop driving.  There is certainly some improvement in my right foot, but it is the left leg that is still the problem.  The right foot is better than it was, but I still don't think I would want to drive any great distance.

But I stopped and bought myself a mocha and then drove to the Rite Aid to pick up my prescription, which was the main reason for the drive.  Then I drove home, parked the car, and then got myself back into my apartment with no problem.

DR Ginny your house looks very nice.
I looks great.


Well you did write that you looked great, which wasn't the most humble thing to say.   ;D

I turned off the football game that Ginny was watching because it was so one-sided.  Instead, I turned to the Texas vs. Kansas St game, but now it is becoming one sided, as well.

Our GUESTS seem to have deserted us.  Since I now believe that many of our supposed GUESTS are spambots registering for the site, I no longer give a flying Wallenda HOW many GUESTS we have.  We know the real ones are relentlessly reading old topics and viewing the current one.

Today is of course a work day.....oh well.

Continued run vibes for DR GEORGE.

Thanks, Jack!  Today was a great performance with a great audience.  I took a nap in between that and ushering for the Masterworks Choral Ensemble.  I'm now up in my bedroom with my netpad, watching TV.

That's some very nice decorating, DR Ginny.

Agreed!  It's quite lovely, Ginny. :D

In fact, I put in BK's first post today, and this is what it translated to be:

Original text:

"Well, you've read the notes, the notes had joy and were written in December, and now it is time for you to post until the December cows come home."

...35 translations later, Bing gives us:

"The letters in the yakhian print screen 12/07-the bombing investigation."

That is freakin' hysterical!! ;D

Actually, I had no interest in seeing him (when we first met a few years ago) after he told me that he had a wife...and that wasn't going to change.

I don't have a problem seeing someone who had a wife, but I do not want anyone who currently has a wife.
