Hope to finish How to Say Babylon today. It’s a memoir from a poet who grew up in a strict but hypocritical Rastafarian family. Think of it as a Rasta version of Educated.

Just say no.

George, of course, wasn't here to commemorate it.

Knowing it was about to happen he did ask someone else to take a photo

I'm up, I'm up - five hours of sleep.

Bruce, congratulations on your new plateau.

Some heartburn, but I have no idea why, since I did not eat a single spicy thing yesterday.

I don't know, DR John G. That frosty slaw looks pretty festive.

I love that picture of Carol Weiss, whose name was familiar but I looked her up to be sure of what she's done.

Wow. Now I really want to hear some of this.

Oh, nonsense. I want to see and hear all of it.

I know! I wish they could video or audio record it!

DR Jrand73, I hope your day has improved. Mine did as soon as I stepped out onto the street. I had a wonderful time with Joshie today, and the two Access-a-Ride drivers were excellent.

Congrats on the review, BK

Yesterday was tech for White Christmas. I guess it was fine, but I'm just an actor here....

Tech week commences this week. So does school. And that's all I'm saying about THAT!

Here’s to a great run, Matthew.

Do you open Friday, DR Matthew?

Holy smokes! I am home from a lengthy colonoscopy procedure. While I reported at 9:45 a.m., I wasn't taken in until nearly 11 a.m.

Procedure took nearly an hour because the doctor found and removed 16 polyps. SIXTEEN. None cancerous, thank goodness.

He wants me to have another procedure in a year.

Yikes, but I think it's probably for the best.

My cousin Debra was very good about staying with me and taking me to Mickey D's for a hamburger pill after the procedure. I bought our lunch, gave her gas money, and I have bid her adieu until my next medical appointment requiring a companion, whenever that may be.

I had a very good rest under anesthesia. Nurse said I slept for more than a half hour afterward. The anesthetist said I should have come around in 3-5 minutes, but he guessed I needed a nap.

Since I had been up and down all night long, he was right.

Enough talk about all that!

TOD:

I was very partial to Huntley-Brinkley when they were a team.

Walter Cronkite was the standard bearer, and I was smitten by Jessica Savitch.

Today, the gold standard is Rachel Maddow (although she drives me crazy getting to a point), followed by Willie Geist and Chris Hayes.

Good news from DR RON PULLIAM.

When I wake up from my twilight sleep - I always just look at the staff standing around and say:

"....and you were there.....and you were there.....and your were there.....but all I kept saying is 'I want to go home!'"

Jrand74 · « **Reply #55 on:** November 27, 2023, 11:12:56 AM »

Yes DR ELMORE thank you - my day did improve as did yours.

EXCEPT we got to O'Charley's and there was a sign on the door that said "CLOSED - PERMANENTLY"

So we went to Agave's Mexican restaurant and I had a very good chimichonga......

I had already gotten the mail, but a few minutes ago the mailman passed by window again and I heard the mailbox slam shut.

I looked out and his truck was parked in the neighbors' driveway.

After a few moments I went to check and the mailbox was EMPTY!!

It was ghastly. It was just ghastly.

Good one, DR Jrand73. I am sure that hilarity ensues.

singdaw · « **Reply #58 on:** November 27, 2023, 11:15:25 AM »

Glad you made it through, DR Ron Pulliam.

Although I'm still scratching my head over what a hamburger pill is.
