Monday morning greetings! I'll be E & T during the midday today, attending Ron Fetzer's memorial service with my friend Margie. He was her stagecraft teacher in high school and was the technical director of the auditorium at the Miami campus here in Middletown.

Please give everyone my condolences and unhappiness at not being there. Ron was essential in getting me to work with Campus Community Players, and he and Jan were great friends in the 1970s. If you see Jan, tell her I send my love.

I am up a little early because I made an appointment at the car place where I will get the following done:

Emissions test
Oil change
Tire change -- from snow tires to regular

Yes, folks, I am the one calling the shots on the change of seasons this week. When I remove my snow tires, it is OVER.

When is the legal date? We learned not to wait until then or the lines at the tire shop were very long.

So true.

And I am home from the car place, nicely unscathed this time.

Oil change, tires changed, new wiper blades, emissions test: $110.06. Thank you, goddesses.

Jane · « **Reply #37 on:** March 26, 2018, 07:29:35 AM »

And emissions test, not bad.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #38 on:** March 26, 2018, 07:30:54 AM »

CT emissions tests are a flat $20 regardless of where you get it done.

I just finished the book, "The Woman Who Smashed Codes", for my book discussion this afternoon. It was very interesting.

J. Edgar Hoover was a horrible man and a thief. That statement probably doesn't surprise anyone

ChasSmith · « **Reply #41 on:** March 26, 2018, 07:38:42 AM »

I think he might be one of the more fascinating horrible men of the twentieth century.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #42 on:** March 26, 2018, 07:39:42 AM »

Not that he didn't have plenty of company.

Growing up we had an indoor grill in our dining room that was on the backside of the fireplace. Everything cooked on it was delicious. I am sure I had steaks in restaurants that were equally good but I can't recall any that were better.

I never craved steaks and never missed them when I stopped eating meat.

I'm on my third cup of coffee as I polish off the Entenmann's "Louisiana Crunch Cake".

Just keeping you all informed.

Guess I should get up. I am curious if Keith knows who called at 5:50 this morning and woke us up

He got up to answer the phone while my brain was still regeristing reality vs a dream.

TOD:
I've never been a fan of steak - it's always too tough for me. If I'm going to eat a slab of beef, it has to be prime rib because it's the most tender. I can't say where I've eaten the best prime rib - it's all kind of been the same.
As a treat for Mark, we once went to a Ruth's Chris Steak House, where I ordered a piece of fish. It was cut very thick and seasoned exactly like how you would season a steak, thereby ruining the fish - stupid.

I like that sentiment DR LAURA....more now than ever!

Jrand73 · « **Reply #50 on:** March 26, 2018, 08:24:49 AM »

I like steaks.....lots of good ones at home and visiting....I had one in Baltimore that was very good, but I don't remember the name of the restaurant.....hmmmm.

Anti-drivel vibes for DR Laura.

Is it Friday yet?

John G. · « **Reply #53 on:** March 26, 2018, 09:32:05 AM »

Would someone deliver a steak to my office? Please.

John G. · « **Reply #54 on:** March 26, 2018, 09:32:15 AM »

I said please.

John G. · « **Reply #55 on:** March 26, 2018, 09:32:37 AM »

And I tried to make it seem like I meant it.

Jane · « **Reply #56 on:** March 26, 2018, 09:35:08 AM »

The early morning call was from a friend. We have been playing phone tag and I hoped it wasn't her. She was not aware of the 3 hour time difference. I have kind of gotten through to her, at her rehab room, but we keep getting disconnected.

Jane · « **Reply #57 on:** March 26, 2018, 09:51:56 AM »

My friend is having a terrible time holding a conversation and is unhappy where she is

And he still couldn’t wrangle an invite to the Black and White Ball.
