Well, I'm plum tuckered out from all that driving (to Seattle and back), so I'm going to turn in...into what?  I don't know.  But it involves a cocoon-like state with little or no movement (or even thought ;)) for several hours.  Good night, all!

Happy Jrand!

Birthday Jose!

Our own HHW twins

All these new avatars. I won't be able to recognize anyone.

Nothing in any of the slots this morning. I do plan to join our birthday boy (and others I assume) this evening. Anthony may join as well depending on the progress of his foot. It's not in bad shape but it will take a while to fully heal. The podiatrist and many others have said that. In fact, two people in Michigan at our family reunion/welcome back to my brother had the same problem. One had surgery and the other deals with it from day to day.

Off to wash my oatmeal bowl and then on to work.

:)

How am I spending my birthday, so far?

Well last night on the way to rehearsal, my car started making a terrible noise, so I turned around and came home.  And in a few minutes, it will be on its way to the garage - hopefully to be repaired.  Goodbye, $$$$!

Good morning, all!  I don't know, DRJose, if La Cocina is ready for a huge crowd of birthday wishers.  Perhaps you should call them about taking over their party space in the basement?  I'm looking forward to a margarita.  Or two.  When we get a serious count for October's coven meeting, we should make a reservation as well.

TOD:  
  CD:  Wuthering Heights, New Guy in Town, Songs for a New World, The Bickersons
  DVD:  Nada
  VCR:  Cheap porn

TOD

VCR: Godspell
DVD: The Wind and the Lion
CD: New Guy in Town & Doris Day 1960's singles

I got my ADAM-12 DVD set yesterday.

ALSO I took the advice of the DR's here on HHW and bought a new surround sound system.  Befitting my enemployed status, it is a DuraBrand model from WalMart, but is doing as well as my Emerson HT-200 did....and it was about $80.  So it will be fine until employment comes along.  At least I have ALL five speakers AND a subwoofer!

Well I survived the blowing of Katrina.

I think people made it bigger than it was supposed to be. Just a lot of rain and wind.

Thanks to all people yesterday who inquired.

As to the Mario Bravo book that BK mentioned. I know which magazine he talks of. I never took him up on his offer. 1) Because it was too much money 2) The book hadn't been  done yet. 3) I didn't want to take a chance of a book that wasn;t a book.

Over the years I kept on seeing the full page ad for it. I felt that I was right in npt taking a chance. In the lastest edition of the magazine they announced an actually date. I said I'd believe when I see it in the stores.

On long the way the magazine went to full color. I guess have that cushion of 100,000k has helped.

I think there should be a class action suit against the author to get the money back plus interest depending on how long it has been since you placed the reorder.

Since BK hasn't mentioned the name of the magazine (which isn't bad for some of its in depth articles) I won't either
