It would be nice to see Titanic again. Glad it was a good production, KevinH.

The wind is still ferocious. My wind chimes sound good, though.

I feel so far behind with reading some of the HHW posting days that I worry that i may never catch up, but if I don't, it won't be for lack of trying!

I'm up, I'm up - I think I got around eighth hours of sleep.

I'll futz and finesse in about thirty minutes.

So, I'm going to replace the car battery tomorrow. My records show this one is exactly seven years old this month, so it did really well.

I'll get another good high-performance battery, but I am shocked, shocked, to hear that the car place will charge $149 for the battery and $30 labor. It was, like, half that seven years ago, and that was at a dealership. Oy!

ChasSmith · « **Reply #41 on:** January 22, 2017, 10:18:22 AM »

But, according to those nice people on the World Wide Web, that cost for a good one today is right in the normal range.

Thanks, everyone....we are in the waiting to see time....

It is indeed the Men's Free Skate this afternoon.

DR CHAS SMITH - AutoZone seems to be the best place to buy a car battery - depending on the location, they may install it for free.

From DR George:

Quote

The recyclables are mostly from The Midnight Sun, TAO's performance space. We have two blue tubs so one can be left at the space while I take the other one and put the recyclables in the bins at my condo complex. I usually get home late at night, so I don't want to try and sort out non-recyclables in the dark, which means I don't always empty it quickly...but there are two bins, so it's not a great rush.

They would probably still be sitting in my trunk too

I just received the following message from FB:

"You're temporarily restricted from creating open graph actions until tomorrow at 7:43am."

WHAT THE HELL IS AN OPEN GRAPH ACTION?

Did you find out what it is?

Finished futzing and finessing. I added a few things, removed a few things, smoothed out a LOT of things. I ended up writing 200 plus more words and going one more page, but I realized that that's fine because of the way the Word document numbers itself - page one actually is on the title page, so it is still the right number of actual book pages.

Finished "Take Me Back To Manhattan" Part One and answered some questios on "I Happen To Like New York,"

On the housekeeping front, I burned a cauldron of soup, and now I have to clean off the stove.

Sunday afternoon greetings! It's been an interesting weekend here in Atlanta, with the women's march yesterday, a marathon today, the Atlanta Falcons' playoff game right now, and more than 7000 librarians in town. And all of this is happening in the same part of downtown. Pretty exciting...

bk · « **Reply #53 on:** January 22, 2017, 01:00:21 PM »

Printed out pages and took the to Staples. Apparently as soon as we have a huge storm everyone in Studio City gets in their cars and goes to Staples. I don't get it. Jerry's? Forget it. No storm will keep Studio City from Jerry's on Sunday, NOTHING.

Got the pages Xeroxed - the nice man there noticed four pages were missing. Now, this is the second time this has happened. I click print, put in the exact page range, it tell me how many pages that is and then I click print again and it should print that exact page range. Only it didn't - it left four pages in a row out. Two weeks ago it left two pages out but those were arbitrary and didn't follow each other - why would it do that? So, I had to run home, print out the four pages, run back, and I mean it is POURING out. We got those Xeroxed and put where they needed to be. I drove to Jerry's thinking maybe, just maybe, the entitled of Studio City would not go out on such a day as this, but noooooo - full parking lot.

Last night we attended a private screening of the movie version of The Zookeeper's Wife, which will be released in March. It's based on Diane Ackerman's book and there was a talk-back with her afterwards. One of the coolest things I've ever done at an ALA conference.

DR JRand, your family is in my thoughts...

Jrand74 · « **Reply #57 on:** January 22, 2017, 01:31:55 PM »

Thank you DR JANE....we shall see.

No more futzing and finessing.....

Skipping pages within the range is most unusual....maybe the printer is a critic.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #58 on:** January 22, 2017, 01:32:50 PM »

Thank you DR JANE. I am trying to imagine 7000 librarians all in one place....that's a lot of hair barrettes and sweater sets!

Page two? Really? Oh, that's right, everyone's at Staples and Jerry's Deli.
