Has anyone ever tried a chocolate fortune cookie?  I tried one for the first time tonight with some chocolate ice cream. It was so good.

I've never seen one.  The chocolate ice cream combo sounds better than the cookie alone.

I've never seen them before. But they were at the Chinese restaurant I went to. Oddly I had already taken chocolate ice cream. It was so tasty together I mentioned it to my niece who then took my ice cream to try it. When she returned the ice cream bowl it was basically gone. :)

My friend Rob Berman lost;

I'm sorry.  I hope you agreed with the choice of the winner.

I'd prefer Rob Berman had won since he's a good friend. Elliott's a nice man and a good musical director.

If he had to lose, at least Rob lost to someone nice :)

I found this As Seen On Tv thing at my dollar store today. It's called Hair Bean.  It was only $2.

http://www.amazon.com/Spark-Innovators-Hair-Bean-Detangling/dp/B006J2I65Y

You never know if these things are going to work. But I have very thick long hair. I am happy to report that it does work. Yeah!

Interesting.  I'm surprised it works.  I use a large pic comb.

I had heard that these worked. But was not sure if the one that worked was the same brand as the one at the dollar store.

It is a weird shape. But my hair feels so smooth. I may go back and buy more. I think there were only 4 or 5 extras there. It is a totally different feeling (my hair) than when i untangle it with a regular brush.

You really should use a regular brush to untangle your hair and that is why I use a hair pick.

With the rain and having to turn the heat on today I didn't feel like going for a walk.  I should have because I did nothing to burn off any calories today.  If I wasn't so darn sleepy I'm sure I would have found the motivation to go out.

I'll have both. Thank you.

Back from a nice Thai dinner at a new place. Plenty of veggies with some duck. Just what I needed tonight.

I would like to have seen Dancing with the Stars. I like a few people in the cast this season. That's more than I can say for the last two or three seasons.

I am sure you all get tired of me posting these audition clips from Britain's Got Talent and The X Factor.  However this young man is pretty remarkable.  His name is Jahmene Douglas and he was not only the victim of child abuse growing up, but had to watch his mother getting tortured and abused by Jahmene's father.  In addition his brother committed suicide due to the abuse.  Jahmene lacks self-confidence, but he holds it in check during this audition.

Oh and his first CD opened at #1 in Britain.

DR TCB, I see that Tacoma Community College is seeking a gospel choir director.


You should apply!

I am afraid I lack the musical skills for that job.  Too bad I can't find a job as a pastor.

Watched a number of these early Abbott and Costello movies, many of which have had Gene de Paul scores. They've also had the Andrew Sisters, the Tink Spots and a fun trio called Tip Tap Toe.

I just watched a 1971 movie that until a couple of weeks ago, I'd never even heard of.  Or I'd forgotten I heard of it.  I certainly never saw it.  Well, it's one nerve-wracking son of a b- gun. 

SEE NO EVIL.  Mia Farrow.  Directed by Richard Fleischer.  It's on a plain vanilla but excellent Sony/Columbia DVD.  A masterpiece (if we must use such words) of suspense.

Well, it's time for me to leave work.  My friend Margo and I are going to Red Robin for dinner. 

Be back later!

From DR TCB:

Thank you so much, MBarnum.  You are quite right.  I was pretty close to the end of the line when I went to treatment; so I probably would have never been around to find HHW.  But you have all helped keep me sane and sober.  I love you, too.

I think your humor and your being around also helps us.


LOL!  Maybe sometimes, if I don't push too many buttons.

Someone made cronuts for the dessert cook-off yesterday at work. They were OK.


I had never even heard about cronuts until today.

I heard about them just a couple of months ago.  They go by other names, too, other combinations of doughnut and croissant.

New shows on Broadway, new shows on television, and new fiims at the corner Cineplex.

I wonder if Cheyenne Jackson has any new films to debut?

What's the best kind of mattress to put on a platform bed?  I know it's probably not ideal for ANY mattress, but I love the bed. 

I've worn out conventional mattresses even when I'm diligent about turning it over every so often.  Maybe the solution is simply replacing them a little more often than you would normally.

Did we have a spellcheck button and if so where was it?  I never saw it.
