Vibes for DR TCB.

Thank you, Kevin. What are you doing in Vegas? Is Barbra having a private luncheon for her favorite fans? Or perhaps you have decided to take in a Donny Osmond concert?

Sorry.

Leaving for the airport shortly. Saw Brent B's show at the Italian-American Club Sunday here in Las Vegas. He was in great voice. The theme was "Night Songs." My friends from Southern California met me.

Okay, Brent certainly works.

Our new flapper arrived in the mail today.

What’s her name?

TCB · « **Reply #124 on:** October 18, 2022, 11:27:00 PM »

Wasn’t there a “Roaring Twenties” sitcom back in the 60’s? PEPPER, maybe?

TCB · « **Reply #125 on:** October 18, 2022, 11:31:31 PM »

My mistake. Cynthia Pepper as MARGIE.

TCB · « **Reply #126 on:** October 18, 2022, 11:33:52 PM »

Her father was Jack Pepper of the vaudeville team of Salt and Pepper.

Today I decided to live-it-up and order from Chipotle. It was very good, but 15 minutes later I was hit with a MSG overdose. I managed to stumble to the bedroom where I fell asleep for four hours.

TCB · « **Reply #128 on:** October 18, 2022, 11:39:29 PM »

Do restaurants still use MSG?

TCB · « **Reply #129 on:** October 18, 2022, 11:40:25 PM »

I haven’t had an attack like that in thirty years.

TCB · « **Reply #130 on:** October 18, 2022, 11:40:55 PM »

Wow! I guess they are off my list.

I have made it to the airport. I have assigned seats all the way home.

How many flights before you are home?

Amsterdam? That seems like a direct route from Greece too the USA.

But I can’t say I like Delta much anymore.

I always flew Delta, SFO to Atlanta, and loved it. What is the difficulty these days? (Haven't flown since 2017).

Delta’s app wouldn’t work and I couldn’t check in until 3 am. Irritating because the app said I was checked in. But I couldn’t get a seat assignment.

John G., brace yourself for a frozen America.

TCB · « **Reply #135 on:** October 18, 2022, 11:50:03 PM »

At least, a frozen East Coast.

John G. · « **Reply #136 on:** October 18, 2022, 11:50:29 PM »

The flight here, actually on KLM, wasn’t full. The attendants were pleasant. And I listened to me book in relative peace.

We are still recovering from 88 degrees on Sunday.

TCB · « **Reply #138 on:** October 18, 2022, 11:52:16 PM »

Down to 70 degrees today, but I think I heard Portland was going to be in the 80’s tomorrow.

We will finally have rain this weekend. Hopefully, an end to our unhealthy air quality from the forest fire smoke.

If John were flying into Seattle tomorrow, he wouldn’t be able to see the Space Needle.

John G. · « **Reply #141 on:** October 19, 2022, 12:00:54 AM »

It will supposedly be in the 40s when I get home.

John G. · « **Reply #142 on:** October 19, 2022, 12:03:01 AM »

Boarding in about five minutes.

Yikes!

Hope you're prepared with proper outer garments, John!

Still juicing up my Kindle and phone.

I think so. But we’ll see.

I’ve got three books I’m in the middle of. I don’t care enough about Annie Erneaux’s The Years, but I’m about 75% through. Fredrik Backman’s The Winners is better.

John G. · « **Reply #147 on:** October 19, 2022, 12:07:50 AM »

The last is the Zola’s The Earth, which I think I’ll finish when I get home. I have a better translation there.

Can we make it to Page 6?

Boarding.
