Hi, Ron. How's the move going?

The light at the end of the tunnel is much brighter.

I'm glad to hear it. It's a BIG job!

[Jrand74]

Thanks, everyone.

DR VIXMOM, I have my days.

My question for ASK BK DAY:

Which movie have you seen the most times?

[Ginny]

Nice picture, DR JRand!  I wish you all the best in the coming weeks...

Then I decided to see what all the fuss is about Chick-fil-A

I have never been, nor will I ever go, to a Chick-fil-A.

Smart decision in my opinion 😉

Our lasagna dinner was a hit.  Laura provided salad, rolls, and a nice bottle of Chianti and her friend Diane brought a delicious lemon cake for dessert.  Laura now has several servings of lasagna in her freezer.

Cool!  According to Google Maps, I can drive the 2,943 miles in only 44 hours!

For those who would like an inspiring story, here's an interesting NYT article:

That's pretty cool!  My library doesn't have this book, but I put in a request for purchase.

I hope they buy it.

Earlier today Richard and I ventured out for lunch and we passed a Chick-fil-A.  He started to pull in and I asked that we keep looking.  We came across a Jason's Deli, which was a vert good choice.

What is this newest trendy nonsense - the Whole30 diet?  And why are people constantly taken in by these things?  They do them, lose weight they could lose anyway, and then gain it all back within six months.  But they SWEAR by it and try to get all their friends to do it.

I had to look this up.  30 stands for 30 days so it isn't a long term diet.  It is changing the way you eat, supposedly using foods that will make you feel better as well as lose weight.  Then you switch to something else, adding & changing foods depending how you react to them.

You're supposed to do 30 days and then you're supposed to feel so good that you eat that way the rest of your life.

[John G.]

Fat chance of that happening. (Pun intended.)

Great photo, JRand66.

Satan Met a Lady surprisingly follows a lot of The Maltese Falcon, but it's not a very good movie despite a very good Bette Davis.

[John G.]

Starting in on the earliest version of The Maltese Falcon with Bebe Daniels and Ricardo Cortez.

I forgot about the ChickFil A political thing as we didn't have any around here until a few months ago.  Yet another reason not to go

[John G.]

I was never fond of Chick-fil-A because it's too carb-heavy. And they're carbs that just lack a certain something, maybe flavor, maybe salt, maybe something that doesn't taste processed. Heavy, dead food.

Apparently a Downton Abbey movie is in the works.

[John G.]

Broadway.com has the best headline for the news that Cats will be closing: The "Memory" Fades.

My battery has been at 10% for the past week.

Good night all

[John G.]

I'll second that. Good night.

Good evening!

So...I'm in the middle of this annoying project, for which my printer decided to run out of toner and not allow me to continue.  I had no choice but to replenish, without even shopping around for best price, so I wasn't in the greatest of moods jumping in the car and driving five miles to Staples for a new toner cartridge. 

As I neared the store, however, I looked over at some new construction on the other side of the road, and my mood brightened considerably.

Anyone (vixmom, for instance) care to take a guess at what I saw?

I guessed correctly, but I called it the Texas Work House.

And here is photographic evidence of my hair shearing....is it NOT a head shaving....   

You probably need a BookFace account to see the foto.   

Great photo, Jack!
