Today in honor of DR Kerry, the mixer is whirling.

Is that Kerry's mixer???

Ooh!  Page 4!

Yes it is the year of the Tiger!  I was born in 1950 - a Tiger Year - so here we are.....it can be a good thing....then again....NOT.

If you birthday this year is evenly divided by 12 you were also born in a year of the Tiger....12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96......

My brother Kent who was born in 1962 was also born in a year of the Tiger.

I’m a tiger, too.

According to this I too am I tiger, however, I have always been told I was a rat.

Ha! I’ve been called a rat a time or two myself.

LOL, I would prefer to be the year of the Tiger.  Being a Rat is supposed to be very good.

I don't remember if you were still posting here or not at that time, DR Ron, but when Kerry passed away, his partner invited me to come into his home and choose some items to remember him by. Sandra and I chose some paintings and art deco items. I noticed that the Kitchenaid mixer was still in the kitchen. I hesitated to ask for a utilitarian item, but I did speak up and said that I would use it. Dennis said that of course I should take it; he had thought of it earlier, but forgot it until I mentioned it. I use it quite a bit.

  The groundhog of Groundhog Day died. 

Does that mean 10 more years of Covid?

Sorry. I guess that was pretty dark. Although that's how I'm feeling at the moment.

DR Ron I just read a story under the headline "The Omicron wave took a much greater toll on Southern California compared to the San Francisco Bay Area, where higher vaccination levels contributed to significantly lower death rates"

Have your friends there mentioned this?

The hospitals have also not run out of space.

Finished the Balanchine documentary. Wonderful flick. I really loved seeing footage of these dancers learning a piece when they were younger and then showing the steps to the next generation. They all seemed to have learned their lessons well.

Tomorrow is the 100th anniversary of the publication of James Joyce’s Ulysses. May be time to reread that one.
