I beat you to it, about that being a "Nutcracker", DR Elmore!

BK, what have been the fastest CDs to sell out?  Have any sold out on the same day released?

[Cillaliz]

I went to a visitation for a friends mother and step dad this afternoon.  Their house was so air tight that when a fire started in the kitchen it sucked all the oxygen out of the house and they died. From the outside of the house you couldn't even tell there was a fire because the fire burned itself out.  I didn't realize for a couple days that it was Nathan's mom.  He found them and is just lost.  I feel so bad for him.  The firefighters were able to revive the dog.  Not sure who has her.   His mom was an elementary music teacher and the table full of letters from the kids she taught really teared me up.  So sad

[Cillaliz]

The Westboro Baptists were here today.  I swear when I drove by I saw a sign that said "You Eat Your Children"  I'm not sure who had it - the Westboros or the anti protest, but it made me laugh

[Cillaliz]

DR Vixmom, I watch The Newsroom and really like it

[Cillaliz]

We are going to have 100+ degree heat indices for at least the next week.  I did part of the lawn yesterday and will likely do part of it tonight.  The dew point is in the upper 70s so it's really humid.

We've had several sell outs in less than twenty-four hours - can't remember which they were, but it was a few years ago when things were different.  Very little sells out the same day any more - in fact, I can't think of a single title that has in the last year or two.  Something like The Missouri Breaks two years ago would have, but it took two days, same with Breakheart Pass.

Elmore, how are you feeling today?

Lethargic. Walking is an effort. I feel like I'm walking with charley horses in both calves and it's painful and awkward. I also occasionally have a bad time with balance if I move about without my cane.

BE BETTER VIBES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's terrible.  My condolences to their family.

"The Miracle Worker" has arrived and "Poltergeist II" has been ordered!!

Well, this is funny...Kelly Clarkson Slams VMA Performers as "Pitchy Strippers".
 

Looks like Kelly Clarkson wasn't impressed by the performers at the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards.
 
The 31-year-old singer took to Twitter Monday morning to share her thoughts on a few of the eyebrow-raising performances that went down last night at Brooklyn's Barclays Center—and it's safe to say the American Idol beauty didn't hold back.
 
"Just saw a couple performances from the VMA's last night. 2 words....#pitchystrippers," she posted on her social media page.
 
Tell us how you really feel, Kelly.

And then it goes on from there.

I did see your post, DR ChasSmith! I guess great minds think alike.

[ChasSmith]

Very great minds indeed.  I should set up a KickStarter fund for the care and feeding of mine.

This is extremely sad.  I didn't even think one could get a house that airtight.

Why did this couple "rate" a protest from those strange people?

It's pretty strange.  I heard that Nathan found them.  All he could say today is that it's just all a nightmare.

Here's the story from the journal http://siouxcityjournal.com/news/local/crime-and-courts/neighbors-remember-sioux-city-residents-who-died-in-fire/article_6e7b6e4f-815b-5da0-8654-c2846a1b9335.html

And I keep forgetting this has been August.  You're having a REAL one!

We haven't had temps like this all year.  So, I guess it's finally summer here, lol

Totally unrelated story, sorry about that.  The crazies came to town because of a gay teacher who was appointed to our human rights commission.  There were counter protests and a "peace" rally, actually  it was a pretty cool response.

DR Cillaliz, condolences to Nathan.  It's one thing to go to the kind of service we attended today - someone who celebrated her 90th birthday.  The visitation you attended entirely different.

[Cillaliz]

They also protested near one of the high schools, so the high school had a drum line and activities inside the school and outside on the other side of the school.  The media focused their coverage on the counter protests and barely even showed the crazies.  And there was a motorcycle group with flags on the back of their cycles who kept going past the crazies so you couldn't see their signs very well.  They were definitely notified they aren't welcome here

Happy Birthday to DR JRand63!

Happy Birthday to DR Jose!

Yes it is.  I didn't know anyone but the son.  He's a Fed. Probation officer and I've worked with him for years.  He's a wonderful person.  We've had a couple run ins, but nothing very big.  I really like him and feel so bad.  I can't imagine what he and his brother are going through

This is the first day that I have taken no meds for the problem. I may take the Tylenol before I go to bed.

[Cillaliz]

The fire department was able to use their pet oxygen mask and cpr to revive the dog.  There must have been some oxygen somewhere for her to survive.
