I am looking for a real-life Lisbeth Salander - anyone know such a person?

For some reason I was thinking you meant someone that looked like her. And then I read Kristin Chenoweth and cracked up.

(saw you meant good with computers).

[elmore3003]

And today we have a dress-code problem with the Hibernian Club, where I am staying. "Jackets are required at all times." No, sir. Find me a new lodging.

DR JANE!!!!!  I have worked very hard all day not to see who won the all around at tonights women's gymnastics.  It is my favorite event of the whole Olympics....And you liked the photo on facebook so it came up on my page.  ARG!!!!!  I know you didn't mean to do that but man....

I am so sorry.  I feel terrible I didn't think of that.  If I hadn't just read a story about the person I wouldn't have liked it.  I will not like anymore Olympic photos again.

[Jane]

I "unliked" the photo.  Did doing so remove it?

[Ginny]

Back from my art classes, during which I received notice that I did, indeed, win the contest on Kathryn's Facebook page!  Thank you to everyone who "liked" my photo - I'll post another one of my Grand Traveler when I get it.

I'm not mad at you.  I know you didn't mean to spoil anything, you would never do something like that on purpose.   It's not that big a deal in the grand scheme of things.  I don't know any details about what happened, so there may still be drama or other fun things to watch.  It just shocked me to see it right there when I tried so hard not to know.  I accidentally heard the winner of a swimming race I was looking forward to.  Guess tonight isn't my night to be surprised.

congrats DR Ginny.  Now that's a photo I'm glad everyone "liked"

[Cillaliz]

I don't know, I "hid" the photo as soon as I saw it.

[Jane]

While I feel bad I don't think you are mad at me personally.  I'm glad you told me.  I didn't even realize "liking" the photo would share it with everyone of my friends.

DR Cillaliz, you (and others):

Dead Tree Alert: Don't Fear the Spoiler

You may or may not agree with it, but I hope you find it interesting 

[Jane]

DR Ginny does your book group ever change the book you plan to read after deciding on it?

I had to change our September book when we switched hostesses & have an unhappy member.  Since the original hostess had a stroke I didn't expect flack about it.  Funny because another member was thrilled not to have to read the original book.

[Ginny]

NPR ruined most of tonight's Olympics for me and Facebook finished it off.  Not that I think they'll show the story that was revealed on Facebook - a Middletown girl won the gold for women's judo.

No, but I had a big hostessing flap back in January that I'm still tiptoeing around...

Is that the same place you stayed last time?

I assume we can all borrow it when we need it.

Interesting.  It isn't always the end that is spoiled, often it is how the story unravels that is ruined.  I hate when someone tells me a joke before I see it.  There delivery is usually never as good.

When we switched hostesses I wasn't about to tell the new hostess what book she had to discuss.  Personally I was also glad the book was changed.

When I got home tonight, Sheena came out from the doghouse so I guess she got out but couldn't get back in.  She really wanted in the house and the AC.  Poor girl.  I bet she was hot today.  She is stretched out by my feet.  She didn't take the splint off like I thought she would.  She's such a good girl.

Do you think she will go outside again tomorrow knowing she can't get back in the house?

Most certainly.  Funny that now I'm home she waits by the door for me to open it for her.

[Jane]

My facebook page is filled with Olympic spoilers. I guess it is good I haven't been watching the Olympics.

Thursday morning greetings!  I'm in a bit of a rush, because I have to be in the northern Cincinnati 'burbs at 12:30 for my Zentangle class, followed by my Copic Marker class.  Have a couple of stops to make along the way.

My gosh, our Ginny has become a hippie!

DR TCB, Zentangle is so reminiscent of the "op art" of the 1960s.  Also, my dad's high school biology drawings.  I've framed some of those to hang in our kitchen - things like the cross-section of an orange, etc.

I had to hide all the US Olympic team posts, lol, they post more spoilers than anyone

Nathan Adrian who won the Gold in last night's 100 meter freestyle event is from Bremerton, WA.  Just up the road from me.

She must know that the splint is there to help her. Good thing you made the preparations for her just in case

What happened to the good restaurants?

Sung to the tune of "Class" from CHICAGO:

Whatever happened to good rest'rants and nice waiters and fair prices?

That's all I got...anyone want to continue?

George, did you figure out who Gabe is?

Yes, he's playing Titus' brother, Marcus.

Is the cane part of his character, or does he use it offstage, as well?

The actor is able-bodied...the cane is a prop and was actually used in TAO's production of "A Bucket of Blood" this spring.  What's cool is that it actually has a sword in the cane part!  This is sort of what it looks like, but I've never seen the handle up close, so I'm pretty sure that it doesn't have the reclining lady that's shown here...but you get the idea:
