I used to make a cereal cookie with rice crispies, oatmeal, and cornflakes.

Jrand, that's such a beautiful birthday tribute to you on Facebook from your sister Myrna!

I figure she won't mind that I quote it here:
"Myrna Cooke
Happy, Happy Birthday to Jackrandall Earles!!!  My brother, my friend, my mentor, and one of the most positive influences in my life. 
Not only for me, but for all of the people for whom you have always been a safe place, sounding board, and sympathetic advisor.  You have changed lives, you have touched so many souls, and healed so many broken and lost people.  The ripple effect of your loving guidance has changed the course of many lives for the better.
You opened up a world of knowledge and a love of music, film, and writing that has captured the imaginations of your siblings, their children, and into the next generation.  Because of you, this world is better.  Because of you, this world is expanded to include all the beauty in life that most people miss.
Thank you for everything and my only hope is that your blessings for all you do come back to you one hundredfold.  I love you and Happiest of Birthdays to you, dear brother."

Truely a beautiful tribute.

Oh my, I didn’t mean to be away so long. Terrible internet connectivity issues threw me into mental disarray at a time when I was hosting an industry webinar for work. Telecom people had to come and rewire my house, essentially. And never really figured out the problem. But the work computers are now connected directly to to modem, so wifi issues shouldn’t affect work anymore.

Oh no!

Choc-O-Jels, on the other hand, sound like those jelly candies we consumed at Passover, in the old observant days.

Jelly candies with chocolate.  Hmmm, sounds "interesting".   Before I post more I'm going to see if someone told you what Choc-O-Jels are.

I asked my 4 sisters to say something at my wedding reception. They could have read a poem, anything. Found out later they got in such a fight about what to do, none of them were speaking leading up to my wedding.

Oh my goodness, I'm sorry.

The happy ending is they sang an amazing customized rendition of The Partridge Family’s “I Think I Love You” together that wowed everyone.

Beautiful, so all was good in the end.

LOL!  Here's my brother's tribute to me, presumably written with the help of his lawyer who was trying to disqualify me as executor.


"Fred Landau is a Harvard Educated attorney, who has never practiced law.  His training has equipped him with skills that enable him to twist any situation to fit his chosen narrative, reconfiguring reality to suit his purpose."

:)




That's tough.  I had some rather bad lies told about me by my sister.

I just wish I’d never heard the behind-the-scenes backstory!

Glad you are able to help Shelly out, DR George.

Thanks, Singdaw!  It hasn't been easy, but it was a good decision.

Not easy in getting ready for this, or not sure you wanted to share you space with someone again?

Tuesday afternoon greetings!  I’m almost ready to leave for my semiannual dermatology check and some errands.

I hope your visit went well.  That reminds me, I want to call and see if my office received my biopsy results.

An old friend who's in Scottsdale, Arizona write back regarding the haboob

"Yes, we have those regularly, and they are not dangerous really. All is well - hope you and Skip are doing okay also!"

If my life went bad and my family left me, my plan was to live in George’s storage room. That is no longer an option.

;D

And when I found a store selling Little Debbie Jelly Creme Pies (formerly known as Choc-O-Jels), a staple of my college diet, I did track them down. Sometimes you just gotta get these things out of your system.

My minister has a thing for vanilla pudding pies. I don't think I ever ate one. But online he found a grocery store in Pasadena that had pudding pies. They didn't have vanilla pudding pies, but they had other flavors. He brought about three dozen of them back home on the plane when we went for a meeting. The TSA agent was pretty confused when he opened the rolling bag and the bag was completely stuffed with them.

Funny.  I don't think that I have ever had a pudding pie.

My A1C is a bit high.

I think I'll sell.

Sorry.

I'm donating blood later today. The Red Cross perk this month is a free A1C test.

That's great.  I hope your score is nice and low.

I was thinking of the chocolate covered Joyva Ring Jells.

Well, apparently I forgot to log out before leaving for my appointment.  Everything’s fine, recheck in 6 months.
