Cilla, glad you're getting support for pacing yourself!

CD has announced, save for Facebook, that site that is becoming more useless with each passing day. With all the money they've made, with all those resources, you'd think they could keep it running properly, but alas error messages galore and I'm bored. My Facebook soundtrack chums will not be happy if this sells out before I can post about it.

Well, I've logged off Facebook and logged back on, and I'm still getting errors. Inotice others posting and commenting but I am SOL at the moment.

There's one person in their Forgotten Musicals list who has to be seriously mentally challenged. In one post he's a 50 year-old tacky, flaming queen, and in the next he's a five year-old boy, both personas absolutely difficult to take. The third face of Eve is a rational, generous,intelligent person with information and videoclips that make me wonder how many times his parents dropped him on his head as a child.

Yep, Facebook is completely screwed up and I actually see no new posts from anyone, just recycled things from last night. Can't post, can't upload photos - zilch. Bravo.

bk · « **Reply #35 on:** October 21, 2013, 06:44:39 AM »

The ONLY new posts, and there aren't many, were made from mobile devices - no one else can post anything, update anything or even "like" anything. Completely screwed up. People are up in arms everywhere - it's all over Google.

And it's not the first time this month and they had the worst shutdown in their history last month. Again I say - BILLIONS of dollars. If I was paying for adverts on there I would be more than a little angry right now.

And maybe not all mobile devices because I just tried from the iPad and nada

Marriage is now legal in New Jersey with no further court action! Christie has decided to end the appeal (because it finally got through to his brain that he has a snowball's chance in hell of winning the appeal!)

Hoo and Ray!

NEW JERSEY: Gov. Chris Christie Drops Appeal Of Same-Sex Marriage Ruling

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie today dropped his state Supreme Court appeal of the lower court's ruling that legalized same-sex marriage. And that's THAT. Via Politicker New Jersey:

Gov. Chris Christie on Monday morning advised the Attorney General to submit a formal letter to the high court announcing its intent to cease the fight. “Chief Justice Stuart Rabner left no ambiguity about the unanimous court's view on the ultimate decision in this matter when he wrote, ‘same-sex couples who cannot marry are not treated equally under the law today,’" the administration stated. “Although the Governor strongly disagrees with the Court substituting its judgment for the constitutional process of the elected branches or a vote of the people, the Court has now spoken clearly as to their view of the New Jersey Constitution and, therefore, same-sex marriage is the law. The Governor will do his constitutional duty and ensure his Administration enforces the law as dictated by the New Jersey Supreme Court.”

Well, I'm off to physical therapy. Perhaps it will be corrected by the time I get home/

Has anyone seen Trisha, who appears to be a black woman counterpart to Morton Downey Jr? Her offensive program's on right after "The Doctors." Her appearance tells me it's time to turn off the TV, brush my teeth, and get ready for therapy.

Interesting. The library where I work has a 7-day loan period for feature films, but a 3-week period for TV series. Any item at all can be renewed up to two times for whatever the regular loan period is, unless there are requests.

We have a 3 day loan for films. But you can renew them online two extra times if nobody else has them requested. Same for tv series. They are 7 days but can be renewed two additional times if nobody has reserved them. This worked out well for me for the last season of Damages. It is hard to watch 10 eps in one week. So i think i had it for two plus weeks (I kept renewing before the week was up because i was paranoid that someone else would reserve it).

I'm glad we don't have 3 weeks for tv series i would be waiting forever for Homeland season 2.

DR Cillaliz sorry you couldn't play. But good idea to realize in advance that it would be harmful. I'd hate to think how sore you'd be if you had done it.

Jennifer · « **Reply #42 on:** October 21, 2013, 07:07:05 AM »

DR Elmore, sorry to hear about your bus troubles. I'm wondering is there some kind of bench you could carry with you. I see a lot of people with all kinds of neat contraptions. I've seen walker type things with seats on them. Just something that you could use as a seat whenever you needed to sit down and rest your leg.

Finally was able to post the announcement to Facebook.

Monday morning greetings! I crashed early last night - no Sunday afternoon nap - and slept for 10 solid hours. Easing into the week, which looks pretty quiet on the calendar.

Ginny · « **Reply #45 on:** October 21, 2013, 07:55:52 AM »

My early crash last night meant that I missed the wonderful photos posted by DRs Vixmom and TCB!

The title of today's notes is apropos because I've been invited to 2 - count 'em 2 - Meet & Greet events for an AAUW member who's running for city council. Can't make either one, but I'll vote for her anyway.

Good morning, all.

Speeding along on yerba mate at a rate that defies the speed of thought. Hope I get some work done today.

And productive, happy Monday vibes for all.

More health vibes for Larry, ChasSmith and Doug R.

I used to prefer Here Comes Mr. Jordan, but I've come to think Heaven is actually a better movie. Enjoy this both, though.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #52 on:** October 21, 2013, 08:31:40 AM »

I always thought that poster image for HEAVEN CAN WAIT was just perfect....and Warren Beatty looks so good there!

TOD:

Warren Beatty: Heaven Can Wait, Bonnie & Clyde (if Paul Newman had starred it would have been called Clyde & Bonnie), Splendor In the Grass, Mickey One, Shampoo

Julie Christie: Darling, Heaven Can Wait, Far From the Madding Crowd

The rest of them....I liked them best in HCW!
