Joshie is so glad I am home today that he is lying on my hands, which makes it pretty hard to type. And cook.

Pride & Prejudice fans, here's a wonderful compilation of covers of that beloved book through the years. Love the last one:

Brent gave another terrific performance last night and mentioned BK and DR elmore when talking about the Kander and Ebb Album.  Also he talked about doing the workshop for "And the World Goes Round" and mentioned that he just did the new CD with BK.

I have the day off (the last day until February's end of open insurance enrollment).  They wanted me to work, but I was originally scheduled to be off, and I need time to prepare for tonight's Broadway Cabaret performance. Otherwise, things are well, and they have requested me to go full time starting immediately.

That's pretty cool!  Would LOVED to have been there AND at the NYC Kritzerland shows!

Yeah, that one was classy, but "Lock Up Your Daughters" is such a great tagline.

I recently bought a new tv for the bedroom and been exploring a lot with online apps watching movies and tv shows. I then bought an inexpensive blu-ray player and the images that come forth from them are remarkable.

Then I put on a some episodes of Babylon 5 and was shocked at how bad the quality of the transfer was. What looked on an older tv set and player looked terrible. It was grainy, out of focused, colors were terrible I couldn't believe the poor quality I was watching especially that this was the first tv series to use CGI for its special visual effects,

That's the miracle (and curse) of modern technology.

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a verdict:

It was the alternator that decided to lay down and die after 165,000 miles.  A replacement is on its way to the shop and I'll be out of here in a couple of hours.

Hopefully, it's not too expensive.

We spent a very productive couple of hours right here in our neighborhood.  We walked 3 blocks down Columbus to the subway where we each bought a MetroCard, then across to Century 21, where I bought new gloves for Richard and a new purple watch for myself.  Apple no longer carries the earbuds Richard wants, but we checked out the iPhone 6 and 6+.  We need to go to BestBuy for the earbuds.  Another Duane Reede stop for shampoo and some chips and sparkling water and now we're home finishing our Artie's leftovers.  We'll probably chill here until it's time to catch an M7 bus down to City Center.

I <heart> New York!

Did you ask about a senior citizen metro card?

DR Elmore, there wasn't a booth where we were, so we just used the machine.  We might have used a different subway entrance than you recommended...
