DR Jennifer did you see "Ender's Game" and read the book? 

Did anyone else?  We watched the movie last night and I thought there had been some kind of discussion on the movie here but I didn't find one during a search.  I know we discussed the author.

Well, the snow has begun in the DC area.  All schools and the federal government will be closed tomorrow.

I wonder if Craig will have work or school tomorrow.  There wasn't anything on the website of the school he works at, but then he is just over the DC border.

Had the meeting with Terri's other half, Donna.  Terri doesn't like meetings.  Looks like we're going to issue her CD on Kritzerland and she'll be our guest star in the March Kritzerland show.

Great news on the CD.

Elmore or anyone else with a taste for George Eliot, have you read "My Life in Middlemarch" by Rebecca Mead? It's the story of a woman who read Middlemarch at various times in her life and supposedly discovered that the novel offered her a great many things modern life did not (to crib from the liner notes). Sounds fascinating. I have a reserve on it at the library. Hope it doesn't come in too soon.

Someone wore a hoop skirt to the chili cook-off Sunday. Sadly it didn't help her hips any. And she couldn't sit down without help. It was one big "Oh, honey, no!"

Our church had its annual chili cook-off Sunday. I was not the winner. I made something that tasted like chili. I tasted the winning entry. It tasted like Sloppy Joe's but with more tomato and no trace of chili powder.

our third annual Chili contest is the 22nd --- this year our theme is the Oscars

My movie is "The Lord of the Rings:Return of the King"  I have NO idea what I am going to do for decorations

We are supposed to dress as if we are going to the Oscars -  they are having a red carpet  and photographers

and I am searching for a new chili recipe ....

The Vixter and I wore hoopskirts to last years' chili contest - we  know how to sit and walk in them though  :)

Cool (about the CD)!! :D

Is there a time frame for when you expect to release it?


Is this a new CD?

Reading the memoir of Samantha Geimer, called The Girl.  Other than containing some rather large typos and things that any editor should have caught the first go-round, it's moving right along.  Of course, there are no more editors now, just idiots telling authors how to "fix" their books (not) while not even catching the most perfunctory of errors.

I can't believe these NBC reporters interviewing the Americans who have just lost out on an Olympic medal.  These have to be some of the most insipid questions ever asked by a "professional."

I have been invited to the callbacks for THE ODD COUPLE later this month.  Now I have to decide whether I am interested in going.
