I am so confused that nobody thinks when someone who did something wrong at 20 or 25 (meaning not a  crime of course) , but has been exemplary for decades after that, it's a valuable lesson for young people that you can remake your life. 

Hope that's not seen as political.  I'd just love for people not to feel they have nothing to strive for.

My iPad Ran Out of Juice - that's the title of my next novel.  Oh, wait, isn't iPad a trademark?  I'll have to change it to My Ran Out of Juice.

MY iPAD, MY EYE sounds like could be a catchy title in the style of  MY DARLING, MY HAMBURGER.

I think someone actually write a number called "Golda Meir, My Eye."

I think that song was NOT used in the Broadway play GOLDA with Tovah Feldshuh.

Before you even think of stepping out your door today, consider who lives in these United States, the greatest country in the world, in New York, a hell of a town :)

DR KevinH had mentioned dinner after 5:00, but nothing's been confirmed yet.  I'm waiting for word from my How To Succeed . . . colleague about his plans today.  I'm hoping we are still getting together because I have some Dropbox issues I need him to help me with.  I'm hoping this does not interfere with dinner!

Joshie confirmed yesterday that The New Yorkers recording is definitely on for the end of March.  This is great news.

So happy for all of you, Elmore, and all of us Cole Porter fans.

I don't think it is a political statement even if it relates to politicians or actors in the news.  I agree with you.

I can only think this woman is either mentally ill or on drugs.  Either way, this is very sad.

I like your song DR FJL - Golda Meir, My Eye should be the eleven o'clock number in something.

And of course we could also have:

Cher, Sure! (reworked from Dinah Shore, Sure! which closed out of town)
On Your Guard, Hildegarde!
Thar She Blows - Gale Storm!
and of course:
It Ain't Mutton - It's Betty Hutton!

If we didn't have numerous commitments the next couple of weeks we would probably go to DR Laura's nice warm climate.  We could finally meet in person.

Former DR Penny lives within an hour and has hiking trails in her back yard and has a guest room, at least I think she has a guest room.

Our friend Flip also lives not too far away.

Been reading up on trademark law and I'm pretty certain I'm going to use the original title now.  First off, who cares?  So under the radar and how many copies do we actually sell?  Second off, I'm not trying to confuse people into thinking it's an official book about the place, nor is it non-fiction.  I've read enough now to think I should never have even brought this up, but someone who was helping me with details told me it was a trademark and I got nervous about it.  Stupid me.

Not stupid, you need to be careful.  Just because you are small doesn't mean a large organization won't go after you.

He sat in my lap this morning for about three minutes. That's an improvement.

I expected my colleague to show up earlier, but he finally arrived around 4:45 with needed music  and Dropbox aid.  I did miss dinner with DR KevinH and former DR Ben, so that's a pity.
