Just got some new cd's that have been on my wish list. I'm going through a bit of a jazz/blues phase. Madeleine Peyroux "Careless Love" Mocean Worker "Enter the Mowo!" Marc Broussard "Carencro" Amos Lee "Amos Lee" Herbie Hancock "Possibilities" All good. Sharon

Don't you just hate having a flat tire? I came out of the grocery store a few weeks ago and one of my tires was flat (the 'as a pancake' type). My older daughter was with me and the first thing out of her mouth is "Guess we need to call Dad". Nope, nope, nope. Since she just recently turned sixteen and will be starting to drive, I realized it was time for Auto Mechanics 101. Imagine her surprise that 1) there's a spare tire in the trunk, and 2) Mom knows how to change a flat tire. My cool points increased dramatically. Sharon

James Welcome to the wonderful realm of Domaholics. And based on your rant, you have made a great leap to the top tier of, what the rest of us affectionately call, DomLuka Madness. Something would be seriously wrong if we didn't 'Alpha Female ' about either the charactors, the direction of the plot, or the subliminal role of any animals. It's what we do. We'll be sure to have Vic send out your decoder ring immediately. Why a decoder ring, you ask? Well...it's a well kept secret that Dom adds hidden messages about the plot and such in his blog entries. You can now find these with the handy dandy help of your decoder ring. We'll express mail it so it arrives promptly. Sharon (Sorry - I made the mistake of having the last piece of birthday cake (chocolate) for breakfast this morning so I'm suffering from an intense sugar rush along with my usual caffine buzz.)

Thanks Dave. Since I was the cook, I can say it was a great birthday dinner. Sharon

Thanks, guys. I appreciate your thoughts. Well......at least most of them. Jeez Vic, do you think you could have gotten the 46 any bigger?? Oh, and Michael, he actually got it right this time. I came home from work to a vase of roses. Sharon

My father always told my sisters and I to never argue politics or religon. He said the only out come with either topic was the loss of a friend. Sharon

You could always ask her what she might like. I personally would vote for the spa weekend. My husband has the very bad habit of 'surprising' me. Which is why I have these god awful kitchen lights that I can't stand (they were already installed before I saw them). Then there was the time he gave me car mats that matched the interior of my car for my birthday. Woo-hoo Sharon

Doesn't that depend on how bad and how messy, and what other factors? I haven't experienced either, so I just look at my friends and make guesses. Yes, it does depend on how bad and how messy. You have to decide for yourself just when bad finally outweighs messy. That's when one day shows up. Sharon

The ability to sustain a long-term relationship is a state of mind. It's being able to say 'Jeez - this person at times can truly piss me off....but so what? I can still live with that.' Sharon

Oh - I like this one. Sharon

You do realize that if you had started the cold meds last week you would be all better now, right? Oh wait....that's right, you had a plan. Worked real well, didn't it. Sharon (who is not, I repeat, not in any way, being motherly)

Excellent start, Viv. So where's chapter 2?? Sharon

Excellent plan. Just take a coulple of shots of Jack and get on with life. Just be sure to post the last chapter of TOU before keeling over. Sharon

Every couple of months or so, my husband shops at one of those big stores. But he has learned what he can buy in bulk and what he can't. Mostly he gets snack stuff for lunches, dry cereals, regular sized canned goods (6 or 8 pack), that type of stuff. Luckily I have two full sized refridgerators and a full size freezer. Although, when I was out of town last month, he did buy this ten pound package of ground turkey because 'the price was too good to pass up'. Who the heck cooks with ground turkey?? Tofu has more flavor than ground turkey. Needless to say, he won't be buying that again anytime soon. Sharon

And the winner is.......ttob_man !!!!! I'll be sure to ship you your lifetime supply of some totally useless item as soon as possible. Sharon

No, no, no, and, uhmmm, no. Clue #2 Q Magazine (Britian) names this song as one of ten songs that actually changed the world, but at the time of it's release, Time Magazine denounced it as a 'prime piece of musical propaganda' for the NAACP. Sharon

On to the Bonus round....... Clue #1 This late 1930's song was based on a poem written by a member of the American Communist Party. Sharon

Dang - Now I can't use my other clues. Sharon

Clue #1 This song, released in 1968 is 17 minutes long.

Nothing that about four more yards of material wouldn't hurt. Her father let her buy this costume and he obviously didn't look at it first. I think the actual name is "Gothic Show Way Too Much Skin Princess". Sharon

Beatles - Eleanor Rigby Sharon

As Bardy said, everyone's life has crazy moments. Your's just seem to be arranged in a continuous stream. It has become a daily occurance, when I arrive home from work, for my kids to ask "Anything new happen to Green today?" It's nice to know you don't disappoint.... Sharon

Pretty much just the sequin belt. Sharon

Well - When you move to the East Coast and contribute to the 3k in insurance, then your vote will be taken into consideration. Sharon
