By the way, some nice soul gave me a bottle of 12-year-old Abelour Scotch this afternoon. Will investigate in a day or two.

Hmmm, that is one I don't think I have tried.  I'm not sure because I can't remember the names of all the ones I've tasted.  I only know that, so far, my favorites are Dalwhinnie & Glenlivet. 

Now I'm in the mood for a few sips of Dalwhinnie.  Since it is New Year's Eve I shall have some. :)

Sounds like a good plan.

Watching a tape of the Encores! "Pipe Dream." Leslie Uggams is a wonder. The show is a mess, but the Rodgers melodies are sublime.

Home from the little Christmas show at the El Portal.  You couldn't have better talent than the four who were in this, but man, what a sort of bore the show itself is.  It's kind of a Frank Sinatra-themed Christmas show but what's the point really?  They have to shoehorn in a bunch of non-holiday Sinatra songs, the dialogue is completely without humor (oh, it tries and the poor cast has to make do) - Jason Graae told me later they cut a lot of the really lame jokes and added their own punch lines.  It was a quiet but appreciative house and I knew several people in attendance, including Jason's mom.

But best of all - I'm home for the PARTAY!  I cannot believe Jane has already said her goodnight - this is night a night to WUSSBURGER.

I don't know that I'm in the mood for watching a motion picture this evening.  I'll probably just hang out on the computer and at our festivities.

Oh, and I played in the snow yesterday.   Just a hour or so drive from home.


 8) 8) 8)  And throwing snowballs is still the best.   ;D ;D ;D

It's not so fun when you have 4-5 feet of it everywhere!

Watching Anderson Cooper and Kathy Griffin.   Kathy's already making Anderson nervous.

I am very fortunate that I have not seen very many smarmy films.  But I do love that word, and it does perfectly fit some books, some films, and some people!

I am not sure that I understand the T.O.D.  Perhaps I will understand it better after I have read some of the other posts today.

Last day of 2012....how can that be?

Very cold here with a bit more snow predicted to fall this afternoon.

I am going to spend my Gift Card from Meijer this morning.....if it is not too busy!  And do a bit of other shopping.  I don't have to do MAJOR shopping since I did that on Friday.



So you won't be doing major Menjer shopping?  What exactly is Menjer?

That is all.

A little late with that, me thinks.

I've told people who normally don't visit the board to stop by later to partake in the fun.
