Hello page 2!

[bk]

Then I found out we'd won something called The Gold Bonus Disc Award from The Second Disc website (a terrific website, by the way) for our soundtrack release of It's a Wonderful Life.  I had no idea they even gave awards so I went back and looked at previous years and what did I find?  In 2013 we won the award for cast album reissue, A Time for Singing.  In 2012 we won the same award for the Follies remix and reissue.  And in 2011, the first year the awards were given, we won in both cast album AND soundtrack categories for Gone With the Wind and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.  Who knew???  http://theseconddisc.com/2014/12/30/the-year-in-reissues-the-2014-gold-bonus-disc-awards/

You never got any actual statues??  Well, what good is an award if you don't get a statue?

And it's really fantastic, BK! What a nice surprise to close 2014.

And as soon as I posted that, my internet again dropped out, I need a new computer, I believe, and  I hope I can afford one soon.

I left City center around 1:30, caught a bus, got to market, and my 2014 errands are accomplished.  i'm not leaving the apartment until 2015.

This morning, I finally saw the young lady above me. We talked about the dog. She was sympathetic, but I honestly doubt she'll do anything about it.

DR Cillaliz -  these haiku aren't original, but I find them most amusing:

Thanks!

[Laura]

I made two kinds of soup, plus some cornbread. And cake mixes were on sale, so ...

I don't like New Year's Eve.

When I was a kid I was on a ocean liner with my older sister on my way to Athens to meet our parents when a tidal wave swamped the ship and we turned over. Only six of us survived. What I learned from this don't be an extra or bit player in life you have a better chance of living.

OMG! 

And this happened on New Years Eve?

My thoughts exactly....how old were you?

[Cillaliz]

Happy New Years Eve Day....   Is there such a thing as an eve day?

[Laura]

I think Mike needs to come back and tell us a story.

[Cillaliz]

Thanks for the haiku site.  Haikus are pretty easy to come up with, so I'll stick with original

New Year's Eve morning greetings!  I am slowly getting myself together to go to the grocery.  Richard and I are planning to see WILD at 4pm and be home before the crazies start celebrating.

The locals I know who have seen the movie said it was ok.  For them the book was better or it was about the same.  They all thought Laura Dern was wonderful.  None of them were thrilled with the way Ashland looked.

I can understand that.

I only spent a couple of days with him and Tim Conway on Apple Dumpling Gang and they were anything but serious, even off camera.  They were both personable and funny and charming.

Back from soup and a sandwich and picking up a couple of packages and thankfully no irritating mail.

[bk]

Not only are there no statues, there aren't even any certificates.

[Cillaliz]

I don't think I'll stay long at the party, although that could change, I suppose.  I'm really not in the mood to go to a party that doesn't even start until 8:00 pm but I made such a to do about the flute that I really better go for a while.

[Cillaliz]

Not only are there no statues, there aren't even any certificates.

Heck, an email would have been better than nothing    Congrats

[Cillaliz]

So according to the post office in the town where my grand nephew lives, the package was delivered to the address his mom gave me over a week ago and as of this morning it's still sitting on the porch of that address.   So I called and texted his mom, no response.  I texted my nephew, no response.  I may have to call the mail carrier back on Friday and ask her to return it.  She said I should call and tell them what I want them to do.  This makes no sense to me at all
