For them what thinks they might get use out of this, try it out.
I just registered, myself, on the advice of a coworker.

Ahhhhhhhhhh

You know, I once had to learn a lot of this stuff.

It seems like maybe it's time for a fresh post.

Happy Birthday To Daya

Happy Birthday To Daya
By now it is August 14th in Germany, so Greetings and Salutations to Dipity Do on the occasion of yet another anniversary of his fortuitous arrival into this world of weirdos. His handsomeness is much admired this side of the Atlantic and his wisdom is lauded worldwide. Yet he remains ever humble and respectful of his elders. A gentleman and a scholar, let us praise his works.
Happy Birthday OML

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy? Oxygen drops (Oxymune)? Local friend (our optometrist) suggests. Any comments, opinions, suggestions? About all oxygen therapy EXCEPT Hyperbaric I tend to say humbug. Hyperbaric? I wonder. Needs prescription by doctor, travel to provider, stay at location of provider. Medicare and insurance would not pay for this condition. Cost +- $100.00 per treatment and I infer that many treatments are recommended, maybe 40. I'm considering pursuing this, ie: trying to get a prescription. We could pick a fun location and make it a vacation sort of trip. Is this going to Mexico for almond seed extract injections for cancer? Or......? Honesty please.

September 11?

Ok, I don't get that at all.

That's a pretty heavy way of making sure you never forget your anniversary!

Who's going?

Free Credit Report: Info here

It was pretty painless to do. There are three agencies; from each one, you are entitled to a free report from each of them annually. I'm figuring on getting a free one every four months by rotating through.

JoJo's Pictures

Go to "Eva Pictures" to see photographs from JoJo's and KoF's visits with "the stars." KoF has the funniest (and creepiest, depending on your perspective) story about JoJo and his "encounter" with Adrienne Barbeau. (Sorry I kept editing this post, sending you each another message each time.)

Almost Blue

Two songs stood out: "Indoor Fireworks" and "Red Dirt Girl." We are sad to have been present for an excellent concert that we missed. (Ravinia on the lawn is no way to see or hear an artist.)

Looks like fun

Golf on Duff

Okay, what do you think of this?

The object is to state the main plot of the episode introduced. The introduction begins with one player's descripiton of the opening scene. The rest of the players then have the opportunity to come up with the plot description. The scenes are then described in order until one of the other players comes up with the plot. The players are given an adequate amount of time after each scene description to come up with the plot description. Judgement as to whether or not the given plot descripiton is correct can be a group decision. One point is accrued for each scene description needed, and five points deducted for a correct guess. The player with the least amount of points after a given number of rounds wins. A round can be when each player has had a shot at an introduction, just one introduction and solution, just one introduction, or when the players just want to quit.

Clearly, the player introducing an episode must know it well enough to describe its scenes in sequence. The more detailed and colorful the descriptions, the better. This should be part of the fun. Yeah, that's right, I said fun, dammit!

They just aren't even pretending anymore

Really nothing to add

Emergency Info. in Mobile Telephone

Under "ICE" (for "in case of emergency") in your cell phone numbers list, save the telephone number of the person you want emergency personnel to call if they come upon you in a drunken stupor. That way, you won't necessarily be hauled off to jail (unless you give them Daddy's number; he'll encourage them take you).

"Heaven Can Wait" No""Homo Innuendo"" Proven

Heaven Can Wait, No Homo Innuendo Proven

Despite a puzzling inquiring telephone call before Saturday night's excellent performance, the brave actors and intrepid behind-the-scenes participants in the second public showing of Kudzu Productions' Heaven Can Wait soldiered on undeterred. This reviewer, long familiar with the mindset of folks who make such inquiries, aware of their "common" (in at least two senses. Agatha) lack of familiarity with the American canon and possibly closely related to one of their ilk, couldn't help chuckling inwardly when Murray Sarkin, as Max Levine the fight manager, actually touched--quelle horror-- Joe, aka Farnsworth,(Greg Fitzgerald). Your dutifully vigilant reviewer listened intently for gasps or more vehement exhibitions of shock, but unable to detect any over the ribald roars of raucous laughter, assumes the homophobe caller either, 1. Stayed home reading Harlequins or 2. didn't find the male touching unacceptable and went home thinking maybe "that weird stuff" wasn't so bad after all.
Seriously, Heaven Can Wait is a good show, a fine evening's entertainment, and well worth the fifty bucks--or whatever.
Especially notable was Bob Smith as the smarmy, slightly slimey, albeit incredibly charming and handsome Tony Abbott. One was reminded of various Cary Grant/Tony Randall/David Niven performances.
Everybody else in the cast done good too.
Kudos to Kristen Smith who served as Stage Manager/Production Assistant and coordinated lighting and sound with admirable aplomb. Without her expertise, the show would have lacked a certain amount of atmosphere and cohesion.
The show will run through August 20, every Friday & Saturday night. Some Thursdays and one Sunday matinee. Inquire at box office for times and prices.-30-
