Now I'm cleaning my car out and getting ready for Mamasaurus and her other half to arrive in the AM and then...NY! I think we'll do the Empire State Building tomorrow because it's supposed to rain on Thursday.

They want to be tourists and do the Grayline, and not a whole lot of walking, so I will have to plan our itinerary carefully. I bought a Droid phone today which I hope will help me in planning our activities. If I can figure out how to work it!

[Edisaurus]

Hey, hey---page 4!

[elmore3003]

Since then, I've been taking care of emails and rescheduling my week. I'm sure the keg is healing nicely...

I knew about Larry's ailing KNEE, but I didn't realize the KEG was injured as well!! Oh, dear! 

The keg is empty!

The doctor thinks my leg will be fine and I will not become a gimp. She also froze five areas of skin on my arms, hands and knee that she thought were looking ominously pre-cancerous. I walked home from the doctor to test myself and I don't feel bad at all at the moment. I'll have a salad very shortly.

[Edisaurus]

So, who besides Ben and Ant is coming to JEWS AND BASEBALL? I'm thinking we will go to Good Stuff Diner from around 8:30 to 10 or so...that's my plan right now!

[TCB]

I can't begin to tackle DROP THAT NAME!  LOL......

Yes DR TCB, I have put away my comb.

I apologize Jrand, I was trying to be a smart ass, but instead it came out mean-spirited.

One of my old Bi-Mart coworkers found me on Facebook. Hadn't seen her since the 1980s when she moved to Alaska and wondered what had become of her. And what is quite coincidental is that just the other day I was  thinking about her and wondering what she was doing now (and also trying to remember her last name).

Is Bi-Mart for

Are we Republican yet?

I did my best to not make that happen...

Et moi aussi! Some idiot on local news said she was voting Republican since Obama had done nothing in two years and she wanted to see how the Republicans would do. I wanted to yell, you stupid fool, Obama's had two years to correct what the Republicans did in eight including an expensive and needless war! We have such short memories. I think it's the stupidity of the collective American populace that depresses me the most.

I saw THE SOUND OF MUSIC eleven times in theaters in its first run.  The first time I saw it was from the top row of the balcony of The Nixon Theater in downtown Pittsburgh.  I fell in love with it then, and my love and admiration for it has never died.  (Until I saw the restored LAWRENCE OF ARABIA on the big screen in all its 70mm glory, TSOM was my favorite film).

Original Film Musicals:
SINGIN' IN THE RAIN
THE BANDWAGON
SWING TIME

Stage to Screen:
FINIAN'S RAINBOW
DREAMGIRLS
WEST SIDE STORY
LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS
MAMMA MIA!  (Guilty pleasure, to be sure).

We will be going to the 6:30 show.

[TCB]

I also love SCROOGE, WEST SIDE STORY, THE MUSIC MAN, CABARET, CHICAGO and SEVEN BRIDES FOR SEVEN BROTHERS.

I would almost have to consider the movie-version of CABARET to be an original movie musical.  It really isn't the same as the Broadway musical.  Too bad.   I really liked the original stage musical.

Are we Republican yet?

I did my best to not make that happen...

So did I and I did what I could to keep John Boehner from becoming Speaker of the House - yes, we live in his district

Oh but he didn't keep his promise about "CHANGE" when he put Bernanke in place.  People are unhappy the economic situation has only gotten worse.

I guess we know how you voted!

I can't say that I'm happy with what's gone on in the administration for the past two years, but I know that I didn't like what went on for the eight years before that. As long as the Republicans are run by people like Sarah Palin, the religious right, bigots, hypocrites, and fools, I don't want them in power to threaten my existence, yours, freedom of speech, and equal rights.

Staying away from the political portions of your post, I do have to agree with you on the stupidity of the American populace.  In the last few weeks I have been stunned by some of the sound bites I have heard from supposedly educated people.  And their vote counts just as much as mine!

[Cillaliz]

DR Cillaliz, I've never had a cat before and I still don't find 3 cats a lot.  I would think that many people that have cats would have at least 2. So one more does not seem like a lot at all.

That's how I feel and having three is really quite wonderful.  Last night before going to bed we played "taking turns at playing with the cat dancer toy"  Ricky did better at it than I thought he would and Boo got to play a little.  this morning I woke up and there were 2 cats on the foot of bed.  Ricky on one side and Boo on the other.  Boo didn't hiss until it was clear I was awake.  Pretty funny.   Tonight when I came home and went to give Boo a kiss in the head I noticed the faint scent of sulfur....lol,  they are getting a long much better than I ever dreamed they would.

If he wrote that, then yes.  But if someone were quoting something he said, it might be that the writer got it wrong. How would we know he didn't say "Poles" instead of "polls"?

Cilla you need this t-shirt: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:KWtW7djLun4J:www.zazzle.com.au/one_can_never_have_too_many_cats_tshirt-235196702591382683+t-shirt+%22you+can+never+have+too+many+cats%22&cd=4&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us&client=firefox-a

I was looking for the shirt Keith got me after I got our 3rd & 4th cat. It was the same saying with a couch covered in cats.  Though I admit after having four cats I suggest to people they stop at three.

Try reminding the folks with four children you are rescuing, not adding to overpopulation

Good news about Callie. 

I was thinking the other day how not having children and rescuing animals instead is really good for the environment.  Cats use a lot less energy over their life spans than children do

And you will never have a cat that is upset about not going to college.

It's warm here. And I just caught and tagged a male monarch that has been hanging around my backyard for the last week. He was FAST -- until that last time I swung my net at him.

You make it sound like you really nailed him!  I hope he can still fly

[Cillaliz]

I am very concerned about the retention vote for 3 of our state supreme court justices.  There has been a very well funded campaign to vote no to retention based on the ruling that made gay marriage legal in Iowa.  The late polls are leaning toward not retaining the judges.  We really don't know what's going to happen.  There are a total of 37 other judges up for retention (they are appointed and then we vote to retain every so often)  if they vote down the line...it will be chaos.

[JoseSPiano]

Good Evening!

Just breathe...

[Cillaliz]

Our other races, I voted against Grassley, but he's leading Roxanne Conlin by a ton in the polls and it's pretty much a given he'll win.   I also did my best and voted against Steve King.  He's such a nightmare and I'm really ashamed he's my representative.  The guy running aginst him is kind of a dweeb and I doubt King will lose his seat either.

[JoseSPiano]

Oh, I guess that was a quote from In the Heights.
