I find music before Cavalli a lot harder to get into.  I admire the music of Thomas Tallis and di Lasso much more than I want to listen to it.

I like DR ELMORE's list for the TOD.

I can't help thinking:

Mozart, Handel, Bach & Lizst may I help you? Mr. Handel is not available at this time would you like to leave a message?

Nice VIX story.

Yes DR JANE my headlights were about the same.  It is so nice to be able to see the entire ROAD - especially the right side - when driving at night.....

Loved reading the tale of the vixter and vixhusband!

I agree. Great stuff.

I did as well.  I only knew they began dating in college.

A delightful tale, vixmom. I remembered meeting him at the Metropolitan Club when we all met there to see Sandy Bainum, but I don’t think I ever knew the Florida history.

That was on one of his summer visits with Nicks family

More and more empty stores on the Upper West Side; it looks more like it did in 1980, without all the dirty sidewalks.

I keep hearing about the great economy but there are a plethora of empty stores on the main drag...

I had a couple of A&T tales to think about, so I did those this morning. and I finally had some breakfast: an omelette with Virginia ham, cheese, and salsa.  It was quite tasty.

I forgot,  When I step out to the market, I need to stop at a DMV approved vision place and inquire about a vision check for my new drivers license.

Get an appointment at the DMV...it's much better than just showing up

I received my new drivers license...it was carefully encased in a paper with the words Drivers License Photo Identification printed in bold black letters, easily read through the exceedingly thin paper of the envelope.

Glad to know NYS is doing their best to accelerate identity theft


I meant eliminate of course

The picture on the license is actually quite nice though.

In my last one I looked like Carol Kane in the Princess Bride

They will do your vision test at the DMV for free, Elmore, or since you just got your new glasses, bring your renewal form to the eye doctor and they should complete it for free

I was surprised to hear that. The economy has been doing OK overall, but the tariffs have really hurt many businesses. NY stores--that surprised me.

You can have vision checks apart from the DMV? What a great idea! The less time spent at the DMV the better. I haven't heard of anything like that here.
