Re Criterion:  I don't see evidence of it running yet, but I'm told the code to use on checkout is COOP.  I'll check it when I'm back from the dentist.

I have asked for an application to adopt Archie.  The kibosh may be the kitten's FIV status.  I've inquired but I've received no answer.



Good luck, Larry! 

(What's FIV status?  Is that HIV but for felines?)

Writer Laurie Jacobson and her husband Jon Provost live in Santa Rose.  She posted yesterday on BOOK FACE that their house was still standing although it was full of ash and dirt....  They had gotten the okay to return home, but when they did, the National Guard was there and keeping people out to prevent looting. They hope to be able to return soon....and she writes they consider themselves lucky to still have a house....

Whew!  That's very good news!

The Loesser score I will be working on is a new edition of How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying. Now that the contract is in, I can mention the show.

At least, there's some good news!  Congrats on that, Larry!!

We'll celebrate the Vix's anniversary by taking Richard's computer to the Apple Store in Cincinnati to see why he's getting so many pop-up ads and the spinning beachball.  Here we are celebrating our 24th anniversary there in 2005:



You do what you gotta do...when you gotta do it. :)

And it's very nice picture, Ginny!

I got the e-mail here at work and forwarded it to our selectors.  I'll be perusing the site myself a little later today. ;)

FIV is feline immunodeficiency virus (http://www.vet.cornell.edu/fhc/Health_Information/brochure_fiv.cfm).
The other one is FELV, a feline leukemia virus, and both can be transmitted to healthy cats by an infected one.

Ahh.  Thanks for the info, Larry.  Neve was an indoor/outdoor cat with her previous owners, but she'll mostly be indoor with me.  I have a little back yard from which she can't escape.

Thank you, ChasSmith. I just got my Criterion email. I ended up getting Rebecca, Sid & Nancy and Unfaithfully Yours.

I got Rebecca, Barry Lyndon, and Othello (Welles).  Had my eye on a few others, but hey, we've got B&N coming up next month, too.
