Well, this is pretty cool...I just got an e-mail from 5th Avenue Theatre, saying because of the two, count 'em, TWO interruptions during Saturday's "A Room With a View," I can see the show again for FREE!  I'm definitely going to see it.  I'll, of course, have to pay for parking, but that's fine with me.  I e-mailed my sister to see if she wants to go again.

DR George, would you please pick up a Playbill for me?

[elmore3003]

I'm waiting for my dinner to heat up and a phone call from Rob Berman.

So, DR MBarnum, when do you head to LA y cast the bodybuilders. Or is that restraining order against you still on at the YMCA, YMHA, Gold's Gym, and Venice beach?

I watched a show on YouTube last night - "Broadway At The White House."  And guess who the musical director was for the program?  Rob Berman.

We just had an hour-long phone conversation about the three Trinity Church lunchtime concerts in May.

When I was at the store earlier today, I decided it might be tasty to add a chicken breast to my salad for dinner.  Rather than go to the trouble of cooking a breast myself, I picked up a Tyson Sliced Chicken Breast.  I threw it into the salad, but there was so much fat and gristle, that I ended up picking out all of the chicken pieces and throwing them away.  Gross!

DR TCB does your store have a deli counter where you can purchase small, but healthier, portions?

Nice.  I hope they don't have interruptions again.

I'm sure that EVERYONE who goes back does, too.

Bruce, RED GOLD is my favorite of all your novels.  I actually put a review on Goodreads.  You know I don't write reviews so please don't expect me to ever do that again-lol.

I actually got two the first time, but I'll get more.

You want gross?  You want a gross coincidence?  Last night I was in the whatever-you-call-it, the prepared hot/cold foods takeout section at the supermarket, and they had an Asian (-style) salad with chicken in it, exactly the kind of thing I was in the mood for.  I didn't like that these chicken bits were breaded -- for me, that's totally inappropriate to the salad thing -- but I threw a few in there anyway.  Got home, took the first bite of chicken, and I could swear they'd breaded a joint with two bones in it.  Threw it away, tried another piece.  Either a bit of bone, or gristle.  YUCK!  Never again.  I could tell that a couple of the other pieces were pure white meat, so I ate them.  The rest of the salad was nice, but I'll never go near it again and I shall mention it to them next time I'm in there.  I will also mention that breaded meats do not go into a salad.  (If anyone here thinks otherwise, just say so.)

I put my review over at B&N and failed and my attempt to change my name.  I'm guessing it says the review is by Keith.

"a joint with two bones in it" - sounds like a title idea for something

All three B&N reviews are by "Anonymous"...unless yours will be the fourth and it's not posted yet.

Well, I'm off.  I have a little TV watching and some laundry to do...much laundry.

Be back later!

Didn't word that too awfully well, did I?  Well, it's the chicken's damn fault.  They shouldn't have so many bones and gristle.

Yes, mother!

[vixmom]

John G  I am so happy about the non violent ending of your story.  I cannot imagine the terror  your friend and minister were going through.

Thank goodness those parents  thought about the greater good and acted  rather than trying to coverup  their son's  actions.   

But yes,  why does ANYONE  need to have an AK whatever in their home?

[vixmom]

in 30 minutes I will be the mother of a 21 year old woman---

[vixmom]

well actually technically  she doesn't officially tun  21 until 1:31 PM EST

[vixmom]

so its really   14 hours more ...

[TCB]

Vixmom, there was nothing wrong with giving birth when you were ten.

I agree with you, Chas.  Your story was even more gross.  But what is going on with chicken?

Go figure, Vixmom. It's Texas. I don't try to understand anything but the food.

[John G.]

Speaking of food, I went to a fundraiser tonight for a chef who is battling cancer. A group of chefs got together to help her out with her bills. They staged a picnic on a beautiful evening. There was a crawfish boil, barbecued chicken, baby back ribs, deviled eggs, corn on the cob, a watermelon salad with crab meat, rice noodles with shrimp and a bunch of other wonderful things. It was just pleasant. I sat with some people I knew and just relaxed. I needed to do that. And I'm glad it was for a good cause.

Nasty meat. The way they raised them is enough for me not to eat it too often.

Cool beans, which Huffington Post says is ripe for a comeback because it's cooler than cool.

what a lovely gesture!

[vixmom]

that reminds me -  the Vixter and I went to a buffet the othe day  and one of the choices were crawfish -  I couldn't figure out how to  eat them so I left them at the buffet -  are they much different than lobster or shrimp?

I tried them once on a cruise.  I wasn't crazy about them, but that is probably just me.

One more!
