As I remember it, in the 70's we had minis, midis and maxis.... maybe it was  NY thing?

It could have been an LA thing and I was oblivious or have forgetten.

vixmom and george - I've left instructions about posting an event to the calendar - give it a try.  Also, I think I've enabled the posting of attachments, so give that a try, too.

On the news, they asked this little girl if she knew the meaning of Memorial Day.  She said, "It is when we celebrate the day the soldiers died. " Well..................

Okay, here's one from a lifetime ago. 

At Van Nuys Airport.  I think this was the day I'd just flown my first solo.

(Not to be confused with the day I sang my first solo.)

Just fired up the grill for some haloumi, corn on the cob and roasted red pepper. Fine dinner.

Chas - Thanks for that comment.    The Liberace museum closed to the public a few years ago.  They seem to say in articles still that they l hope to reopen somewhere on the Strip, but they haven't announced anything on that.

I find it hard to believe some hotel on th Strip wouldn't love the traffic the musuem would bring. 

I went to Liberace's house in Vegas.  It was with a group and was a number of years ago.   It looked like this when I was there with furniture and everything.

Legal Question..........................


Now that the jury has had a mistrial on the sentencing phase of the Jodi Arias trial; does the new jury have to hear all of the evidence from the initial trial, in order to vote for Death or Life in Prison?

They have to hear whatever the two sides think they need to hear to decide life and death.  It won't be all of the previous evidence but it will be a couple weeks at least

What lovely photos we are seeing today!

DR TCB Madame Rose is the mother of Gypsy Rose Lee....


That was who I thought you were talking about, but I guess I just didn't understand your earlier reference.

Got through several movies today, which was fun. And a little writing, not too bad. But I'm fading fast. Good night, all.

About the same time DRs Penny and Jane were wearing maxi-skirts, I was wearing mini-skirts (and LOTS of hair!):

I remember my sisters using the same terms. That was in Kentucky. (Maybe it was a Lutheran thing, Vixmom.  ;)   )

The skies cleared this afternoon so I fixed the lawn mower handle mowed the yard.  I did some other yard work and called it a day.  it's supposed to rain all week.  Not like sprinkles, but major rain.  We've had a lot already.  Anyway, if I didn't do the lawn today, I have no idea when I'd be able to do it.   I'm glad that's done....for a few days

Hey Matthew, how is the new place?

So far, so good, DR TCB.   Still have unpacking to do.  But I like it, love the location, the DD loves being the ONLY dog now, it's a great experience so far!
