Three!

[John G.]

Has anyone read the YA Aristotle and Dante books? There are two of them. Benjamin Alire Saenz is the author.

From DR John:

In the realm of it can’t get any more stupid, people are confusing poutine and Putin.

I saw that, incredible 

[Jane]

From George:

It was 45¢ per gallon off!

We also had the same discount at Fred Meyer.

Yes DR JANE - as DR JOHN G said the Hays Office or whoever was in charge at the time changed the movie ending of THE BAD SEED.

In the movie the mother survives her suicide attempt [with a bandage on her head she phones her husband and tells him she knows she will have to "pay" for what she's done]..... and Rhoda is presumed dead until she bounces through the door - then she sneaks out at night and goes to the pier to get the penmanship medal and gets struck by lightning!

In the play, the mother's suicide attempt is successful, and the cast sits around for a bit talking about it and Rhoda and we are to assume that Rhoda, too, is no more....  Then she bounces through the door and it's clear her murderous ways are going to continue.....

I think I prefer the movie ending.

[Jane]

A very annoying thing for me is television commercials, and sometimes the shows on TV.

They feature doorbell ringing.  And the ringing is exactly like my doorbells.

VERY IRRITATING. 

Sometimes, it's a telephone ringing that sounds like my house phone.  And the characters on those shows just WILL NOT answer the phones, and I have to start wondering if it's MY phone.

Ticks me off mightily.

LOL.  At least you don't have a dog barking at the tv doorbell.

Nellie Olsen!

She was my father's patient. 

[Jane]

The actress, without the Nellie face

Good afternoon, friends.

[singdaw]

I am almost caught up.

[singdaw]

Great set up, DR ChasSmith. Thanks for the photos.

I have this irrational fear that if I use a device for my music, it will either malfunction or will lose a charge during the performance.

[singdaw]

Better catch up on bk's notes, now.

[John G.]

Thank you for the photos, ChasSmith. Nice looking band.

[John G.]

Eating some cucumber salad with enough garlic to kill the cast of a Hammer vampire flick.

[John G.]

Cincinnati chili-marinated flank steak?  Yes, please.

Listening to a new poetic al translation of The Canterbury Tales that is uproarious. It’s like the poet grew up on Monty Python.

OMG

YES.

Forget the grits and oyster crackers. Cincinnati steak ‘n eggs, baby. This will be mine.

[elmore3003]

I wonder if DR Elmo has ever been in this situation?

Been there!

[elmore3003]

My morning liesure went to hell fast: too much to accomplish on this possible project: proof this, email them, etc. Oy!

[George]

A little bit of weekend photographic evidence.

Click to enlarge.  Or not.

Nice pictures, ChasSmith!

[George]

Yes, it's a nice college stage and auditorium. It's just too bad there's no orchestra pit.

Hence, getting ready backstage.....

Oh, my!

[George]

Finally, in my own little corner...

Interesting.

That’s why it’s National Proofreaders Day. Have your staff do it. Stella is a proofreader, right?
