Of course that reminds me of the perhaps apocryphal telegram exchange between Noel Coward and Winston Churchill:

Here are two tickets for my opening night.  Come and bring a friend, if you have one.  Noel

Can't come on opening night. Will come the second night.  If you have one. Winston

A lot of trophy wives, it doesn’t work out. But it made him happy for a little while at least. But he found a new wife.”

While we were enjoying breakfast at Bob Evans, our handyman was on our garage roof painting the cupola and weathervane. 

A Bob Evans breakfast. Brings back fond memories. Sausage and Cream gravy with lots of black pepper over biscuits.

Sausage gravy and biscuits is what I'm making for the church Easter morning breakfast.

Has anyone done a side by side comparison of the two I Do, I Do booklets to see what changed?

One of the pages was accidentally printed twice, so the info that was supposed to be on that other page...isn't.

Thanks for the corrected booklet, BK!

My nephew Herman is getting better, but the UK music program has had some crazy setbacks since his fall. One music prof has stepped down because of pancreatic cancer. A student and member of the wind symphony suffered three strokes in the last few days.

That's great about your nephew, but oh, my goodness!  What's going on at the music program?? :-\

DR JEANNE - I just read a rave review of a plant-based restaurant in West Hollywood from someone that I trust. Probably not up bk's alley, but you may enjoy it.

They said it's pretty expensive, but excellent. Maybe for a splurge?

My house refreshing process is moving along.

Tomorrow, a guy will come who will screen in my back porch and replace wood that is rotting in a couple of places.

I expect priming and painting to begin by week's end.

All in all, I'm getting excited about it.

The day is absolutely gorgeous here.

Temperature is 81 degrees.  Low should dip to near 60 degrees tonight.

I looked at the West Hollywood menu.  For that area, and the salary base necessary to live there, the prices are very reasonable.

Really? I just saw about an hour ago where he was supposed to speak at the next Roger Ebert symposium.

Rogerebert.com is dedicating the festival in Gottfried’s memory and will show a new documentary about his career.
