Well, you've read the notes, the notes were an Ode to a Notes, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're currently reciting Ode to a Cow by Keats.

And the word of the day is: SEROTINAL!

I think it's the Jewish New Year. No Jews have invited me to celebrate

It certainly is! Rosh Hashanah starts tonight. I will be scarce here on this board, as I will be singing all tonight and all day tomorrow.

bk, enjoyed all of the videos immensely. Thanks for sharing! Such a talented bunch of folks.

BK pointed out last night:
BK said: "I have been battered and bruised by certain types all over the Internet - a lot of that boils down to the cretin who pursues me all over the Internet, and anyone who thinks THAT'S paranoia knows nothing of what's been happening since 2007. It would drive anyone to paranoia or distraction. But you know what - if I'm so paranoid and destructive maybe we should just call this board quits. Because really I think my history here with most dear readers has not only been positive, but supportive and friendly, as well. "

I actually in both cases have would up appreciating when I've just been away a day or two (even if for no other reason than I've been evry busy and often don't want to post until I ketch-up) and you write an email of some sort to make sure everything's OK. I'm hoping my one day of raised voices at you when I was in the middle of a family crisis is an indicator only that I have a boiling point in general, not any lack of admiration for you or appreciation for the site.

That said, I wonder if by saying from time to time you're going to close down the site - you'd be delighting whoever is plaguing you

Of that I have no doubt.

I edited that post just to clarify, but it's basically the same.

The day that Jewish people take off early is affectionately called "Rush-a Home-a" - at least in the business world,a s I've heard.

Thank you, vixmom, for that post last night.

Overheard at the office yesterday:

"I should really stop keeping my glue stick in the same drawer as my chapstick."

I wonder if anyone has ever written an Ode to Odes?

singdaw · « **Reply #15 on:** September 04, 2013, 04:20:06 AM »

I think I should like to write an Ode to Toads.

Good morning, all. Two things:

1. Coffee!

I see that all 54 of the French Maigret TV films with Bruno Cremer are now available on region 1 DVD on the MHZ Networks label on 9 volumes, with 6 films in each volume. All have English subtitles unlike the French box sets which had only 40 films in 4 box sets with subtitles; a 5th box annoyingly contained mainly unsubtitled episodes. DVD Discount is offering a buy one get one free at the moment.

Thanks for posting the video clips. I look forward to watching them at lunch! Yippee!

Robin Raianiemi · « **Reply #23 on:** September 04, 2013, 05:27:37 AM »

I love the YouTube videos, BK.

I'm going to write an "Ode to Sharknado" someday.

Good vibes to all and sundry, with extra portions to those of us feeling under the weather, or over a barrel.

Good morning, all!

Last night was a bad sleeping night but a very good reading night. The pain meds did not want to work and I was up past midnight reading another Alison Weir book on Anne Boleyn's last days. I will probably nap later. As soon as I've finished my coffee, I will walk to my bank and deposit the Check from Philadelphia. As soon as it clears, I am ordering a new mattress.

DR TCB, I am honored to be one of your favorite nuts and to be in the company of BK and FJL. I'll be happy when I'm feeling better and my sense of humor is restored.
