My boss found out today he's allergic to beef as well as mesquite, live oak and pecan, which are the woods we use to smoke beef. I think he's saying he's allergic to Texas.

What the HELL!?

Why am I getting an e-mail about a Closeout Sale on 2012 Fords? Aren't the 2015 about to come out?

TCB · « **Reply #62 on:** August 08, 2014, 01:33:08 PM »

Thank you for the pats on the back from BK and ChowMein!

Contrary to popular belief, Scandanavia is not the only place to see fjords. Of course, as BK noted, there is your local Fjord dealer. But you can also see fjords in Chile, which I saw when I cruised around Cape Horn and up the western coast of Chile.

Great picture, Tom!

From DR Ginny:

Quote

DR Jane, I've talked casually with the social worker for independent living, where she is now. We both think she'd find assisted living really annoying.

I'm sure I would. I would also be happy for someone to come in and help me in my own home.

From DR TCB:

When are you going to move?

Selling country property can take a long time, and in this market who knows. First we have to decide when we will put it up for sale, possibly in the spring.

We love it here but the children aren't coming home anymore.

Jane · « **Reply #66 on:** August 08, 2014, 01:58:49 PM »

As to where, we haven't a clue

Not if you think they're all robbing you blind and the men are after your body.

"Wouldn't you just DIE without Mahler?"

That's cheesecake, right?

A pastry, I think.

Napoleon's just a pastry.

One of my favorite Harburg lyrics, Elmore. Thank you. I needed that today.

From DR Vixmom:

and when you do,can I have your house please?

I know, we are crazy to even think about leaving.

Jane · « **Reply #70 on:** August 08, 2014, 02:03:43 PM »

DR TCB I can't can't all the times my mother stopped drinking only to return to it. I have great admiration for anyone who succeeds.

So, good for you, Vixmom, but evidently Olympia arts patrons need their beer buzz.

I think today I will go to the pool. Water is supposed to be medicinal. My knee is being to hurt again and the should has never stopped.

I think it is. Did it help?

Once again I got the single lane today

I had to sit and wait 5 minutes for it and I let the man who had told me he would be out soon how grateful I was.

So, today I've got therapy

After that dream you should have clarified what kind of therapy you went for

DR TCB, I am almost always proud of you.

Speaking of Der Brucer, has anyone heard anything?

I sent him birthday wishes and hope to receive a response in the next couple of days.

Was that as beautiful a trip as it sounds?

I was thinking a woman more than a man. There are so many horror stories out there I can understand her fear. It is a shame.

There are times, DR Jane, when I wonder if Mom even trusts me.

Would you buy a used car from this woman?

James Brady's death has now been declared a homicide as it was determined he died from the gunshot wounds received thirty-plus years ago when he and President Reagan were both shot.

Page three? Really?

Had a really fun lunch, then picked up a few packages, one of which seems to be a book all about barbecue lovers and Texas, by some bloke named John G.

And now, from the "How Was YOUR Day?" department: Itch-scratching elephant terrifies occupants of car!

Vehicle is badly damaged, occupants shaken but unharmed in South African park:

Today I got a nice box set of Ormandy doing the Brahms symphonies - I like Mr. Brahms so I'm sure these will be nice.

I gather you have discussed this with her doctor. This is not the woman you used to describe. I know it must be heartbreaking at times.
