Vixmom, I had a quiet birthday which is the way I like 'em these days.  There was no cake, but rather my preferred coconut cream pie!

I just finished listening to the first disc/act of Dessa Rose.  I really enjoy hearing the entire show with all of the dialogue and songs.

Miss Annette Funicello appeared with Mr Ed Wynn in BABES IN TOYLAND, she appeared with Mr Keenan Wynn in MUSCLE BEACH PARTY, and Keenan's son Ned Wynn appeared as one of the boys on the beach, most  notably in BEACH BLANKET BINGO where he was dancing with a young lady whose bikini top was snapped off by Buster Keaton's fishing line.

I'm still at work and need to be here for another hour and five minutes.  The second disc of Dessa Rose is 60 minutes and 51 seconds.  I'll listen to as much as I can, but I don't think I'll get it all listened to tonight.

Jose lucky you getting a Trader Joe’s in NY.  We cannot convince them to come our way, and I assure you we need a store like that more than New York does.

Vixmom I would sell my kidney stone if it helped a charity.  I wonder about anyone wanting it, let alone paying for it. ;D

Jason, good vibes you will now be free for a new opportunity.

My book group read "The Curious Incident Of The Dog in The Night TIme".  It was very good and sad.  TPunk you should really read it considering the career you are studying for.

Actually almost ANY trivia question I would ask could be answered by any one of three names.

BTW...DRSWW - did you figure out your LUCY SHOW question?  ???

DakotaCelt were the Red Panda’s beautiful?  Did they move much?  We saw the traditional black and white Panda’s at the San Diego Zoo during feeding time.  They hardly moved to eat.  We went for Keith’s mother’s 80th birthday so she could see the Panda’s.  Better than the Panda’s were the playful Polar Bears.  We had a great view of them above and under the water.  

JMK like you Keith gets depressed at zoos and my mood fluctuates the entire time.  We liked the Portland Zoo lights, just pretty lights no animals.

Jason I went to the Bronx Zoo since my friend wanted to go.  I liked the squirrel, or rodent house, best.  I enjoyed getting lots of exercise there.

Tomovoz, yes the Berne bear pit is very sad, but fascinating it is so old.  

George the Northwest Trek Wildlife Park looks nice.

Since leaving the Peace Corps the only job Craig really wanted in Bucharest couldn’t wait for him to be free.  Well the job just became available again.  He called, went in and was hired on the spot. :D They were very anxious to have him with his experience in the P.C. teaching English.  The job is copy editor for the Daily Bucharest News.  If you are interested…… http://daily-news.ro

DR Jane - my copy of the "The Wild Parrots Of Telegraph Hill" DVD arrived yesterday!! Have you seen it yet?
I'm way too lazy to check the last 14 days notes to check up on such things.

The above mentioned book by Peter Hoeg (of Miss Smilla fame) would have to be one of the most disturbing I have read.  it appears to have been somewhat autobiographical.   the "Curious Incident" is a reminder that we should read more books written for young adults and teenagers!

I've just heard too (I'm way out of the loop of such things) that the author of "Holes" has written another book featuring one of the characters from that story - "armpit".

Thanks George.  

Tomovoz I wasn't around for a few days, only returned about the time you did.  I'm still on the waiting list for Parrots.  Let me know what you think.

Did any of you guys who watch American Idol see the news about the twins (the first set of black ones who had the great harmony).  They were on Entertainment Tonight (well a story about them was on the show).  They were arrested and may not be able to compete on the show! :(

My Name Is Jack Lyrics


My name is Jack and I live in the back of the grand'a Garbo home
with friends I will remember wherever I may roam

And my name is Jack and I live in the back
of the Greta Garbo home for wayward boys and girls
we all love Jack ,we live in the back
of the Greta Garbo home for wayward boys and girls

There goes Fred with his hands on his head cause he thinks he's heard the bomb
and here comes Superman who really puts it on
there's lots of fun and I love to run up and down the stairs
I make as much noise as I want and no one ever cares

And my name is Jack and I live in the back
of the Greta Garbo home for wayward boys and girls
we all love Jack ,we live in the back
of the Greta Garbo home for wayward boys and girls

There's Carl over there with his funny old hair and he's never sad at all
and when he I grow up I want to run as fast as my friend Paul
there's the prettiest girl in the whole wide world and her name is Melody Mend
and here comes ma with brother Tom who's probably my best friend
well ,Tom is my best friend ,my best friend ,well ,Tom is my best friend

And my name is Jack and I live in the back
of the Greta Garbo home for wayward boys and girls
we all love Jack ,we live in the back
of the Greta Garbo home for wayward boys and girls

My name is Jack and I live in the back of the grand'a Garbo home
(we all love Jack) and I live in the back (we live in the back)
in the back of the Greta Garbo home for wayward boys and girls
and my name is Jack (we all love Jack) and I live in the back (we live in the back)
in the back of the Greta Garbo home for wayward boys and girls

My name is Jack and I live in the back
my name is Jack and I live in the back .......

Not sure I reported on Nilla after the trip to the vet.  He's probably going to lose his teeth. But, they have to give him steroids to give him the required immunizations (he reacts to them terribly) so we're hoping that the shot will help.
