I've caught up with all of yesterday's posts.

Boucoups congrats to DR Jose, of course!

Best of vibes for another wonderful evening at Lestat, DR JosePiano!

I believe it is Hozay, DR JRand55...at least that is what I called him.

I agree, unless, of course, you're singing the Jose Anthem song...."Jose, can you see, by the dawn's early light...etc.,"

Then it's Ho-SAY!

I enjoyed the movie, Sweet Smell of Success.

Der Brucer has been recording Doctor Who for me. He refuses to admit he enjoys the series, just as he has always poo-pooed Good Eats, but enjoy them he does.

I haven't seen much of the first two Doctors, Hartnell and Troughton. Pertwee was the first Doctor I watched regularly, and as they say, the first Doctor you watch is generally the one you will be fondest of.

I have some of their adventures on tape from when the local public telly broadcasted it many years ago... I have the audio recording of Highlanders.... War Games was fascinating. Loved Pertwee and his Bessie!!

My two favorite Doctor Who quotes:

"Yes, someday I will come back again." 1st Dcotor, William Hartnell

"Man is but a sum of his memories" 5th Doctor, Peter Davison in Castrovalva

I have a favorite quote, but it's not from "Doctor Who"...it's from "Goodbye, Mr. Chips":

"Darling, I revel in early English perpendicular!"

-- Ursula Mossbank

Yes, I like that one also...

I have a number of quotes I like...

"You can't turn your back on heritage" -- Jack Deveraux, 1990

I also like the following Arab proverb

A friend is one to whom one may pour out all the contents one's heart,
chaff and grain together knowing that the gentlest of hands
will take and sift it and keep what is worth keeping and with a breath of kindness
blow the rest away.

For Dan (the Man) and others interested in LONGBOXES

Yowza! I might have a little goldmine! I have those Beatles boxes. Now I'm a-thinkin' that I should wrap all the boxes I have in acid-free tissue paper and put them away in airtight plastic containers.

Now let's talk about my collection of first issues of magazines. Who knows who was on the first issue of People?

I hated the Long Box packaging, but I liked a LOT of the Long Box art. The only one I saved was the London Cast Recording of BUDDY!

Ironically, I won my copy of BUDDY through a contest at Tower Records and it came in the mail sans long box.

SMILIN' THROUGH comes on TCM at 10 pm EST...NOT 11 PM as I previously reported....for those of you with DVR's and other assorted mechanical recording devices.

Not to mention the only paring of Jeannette MacDonald and Lassie later on in the night.

And then there's the intriguingly titled THE DEVIL IS A SISSY tomorrow morning.

I'm finally caught up. TOD - The first word processor program I used was Word Dos version. We had something different in the office in Phoenix, but I didn't know how to use it.

Video Games - we had Pong. Then we had Atari and I decided to stay up all night one night to practice Asteroids. Well I was very good at it after that session and no one would play it with me. Then we had the first Nintendo and we were all hooked on The Legend of Zelda

People are continuing to look at the old house. I had a call that a girl who looked at it yesterday brought her parents to see it tonight and there is another showing at 7:00pm. So, at least people are looking. I'm keeping my fingers crossed

I spent so much time during the last week on my eBay guy that I totally lost track of the deadlines in a case headed for trial. So, it will be a very late night again tonight. I hate it when that happens. But I always manage to get things done.

Well, I'm thinking that I may need to run and get an ice cream to see me through this evening. Then to work I must go.

Her version of A Little Night Music is my favorite. I love the way she says the spoken lines in "The Glamorous Life," more than any of the other recordings that I have (especially when she says, "Where the HELL is the stage manager?").

We've heard now all about DS Rob's first day at his first co-op job, for which he selected his apparel as carefully as did DR Jose for his Broadway debut. I'm going to get showered and comfy and watch the Eugene O'Neill documentary.

Bye for now.

Thanks, my realtor called me and was quite pleased. No offer yet, but they spent 1 1/2 hours at the house and it turns out I know the potential buyer's parents who accompanied her. Her mother was a state highway trooper in the area I used to live and her father is a retired DCI (Iowa's version of FBI) agent. I knew them both when I was a prosecutor 14 years ago. Small world

Thanks for the Dewey Decimal tips. I'll see if these books are in any other libraries. That Potpourri table sounds appealing, though.

Have we ever had a Dear Reader request magic-trick vibes? I have to do a magic trick in class tomorrow and I'm almost certain it isn't going to work. We'll see how this goes.

Vixmom - Skip says there's a slip for a parcel in the mailroom, which will be open again after 4 pm. I'm hoping it's the cookies. We got extra skim milk yesterday in anticipation of the cookies' arrival. I understand that when you eat cookies with skim milk, it does something to the calories.

Why it cancels them out, doesn't it? Just like when you order a diet coke with your big mac.

No, but there is always a first
