Sandy Mc, interesting you'd like "Joe Black", generally considered a pretty bad movie (Brad's appeal not withstanding). It's too long, too drawn out...the original was better. Brad, in "12 Monkeys" was quite good.

(don't you love these movie critic posts).

Karen, I have never heard of that movie.  Who's the guy that looks like Brad Pitt?
My favorite move is "Meet Joe Black" with Brad Pitt.  Never liked him before that.
Linda, how long does it take you to make potato salad?  Can't you make it Friday and go to lunch on Saturday.  Or get up early Saturday morning and make it?

Sandy McGee -- What does a pool guy do on a rainy day like today?  Catch up on paperwork?  Also, remember a while back you recommended a pediatric dentist in McKinney to me?  Anyway, my granddaughter went to the man (of the man & woman team) yesterday.  Thanks for the referral.

The guys at work said that it is raining badly enough to "choke a frog."  That's a new phrase to me, but appropriate for the amount of rain we are getting right now, and YIKES, thunder.

Thanks to Don L whose "reverse chronology" link took me to the movie title I was trying to remember. It was Memento and I thought it was a great movie and very thought provoking afterwards. It may not appeal to everyone but I would bet Mr. Southworth would find it intriguing. I hope Blockbuster has it in stock. Thanks again, Don L.  And Don, it sounds like your friends got you the perfect gifts that you could actually use.

Happy Birthday to a sweet guy, Gordy Johnson.

Speaking of backwards; Jack, I can't make the next soiree with you folks. I have an aunt with my same b'day, exactly 10 years older. So, I'm flying her and another aunt out here in June for celebrations, tours, etc. They've never been to the golden state.

Pulp Fiction may have gone every which way; but, it was another movie that went backward. I am trying to remember the name. It is one of my son's favorite movies. I will have to call him and ask the name.

You're right Linda. Pulp Fiction went backwards, forwards & sideways...all over the place, and somehow still worked out.

Sandra -- Me, too.  It's steadily raining now.

Wasn't John Travolta in the movie "Pulp Fiction" that went backwards?

Happy Birthday Gordy.  Have a wonderful day!
Linda, I made it before the rain.  It's a good day to be home, sleeping late or reading with a cup of hot tea

Happy b'day Gordy. KMG, I can only remember a "Seinfeld" episode that was in reverse order, and I suppose one could mistake Michael Richards for Brad Pitt if you had enough martinis, glue and coke in your system.

Gordy, Happy Birthday, hope ya have a good one.

Happy Jack Hawkins, give me a ring when you have a minute. I have visions of a 42/ poker night in our future. Small wagers, cold beer, lots of trash talk. Think anyone would be interested?Gotta have Dagley, Moss, Fugate,Watts,Browning, Smith,any others? I'll go to the Cherry Pitt and find Dagley if needed.

Update on Christie - - I s/w Alan Torbett & he sd she did get a "pass" to leave the Rehab Cntr for a few hrs this wkend!!  Didn't get to go home , but did drive around a while & had lunch at a restaurant.  Still scheduled to start radiation treatments this Thursday. 

Alan sd it looks like she will be released this wkend and they will take her to Amy's (dtr) house.  Christie & Bill (husband) will stay with Amy while she goes thru 6 wks of radiation treatments.  After tda, I don't think I'd send anything to the Rehab ctr as she will probably be gone by this wkend.  I will get Amy's home address so we can still send her encouraging & funny cards.  She is doing good, but it is a long slow road back to recovery!!  Keep her in your prayers!

John Southworth - I liked your comments about "No Country for Old Men."  I agree with what you said, although I don't want to think that hard after watching a movie.  It was a good conversation topic with husband and friends.

Happy Birthday Gordy Johnson.  Hope you have a wonderful and blessed day.

Sandra, hope you got to work b/f the rain started.  It is "murder" on the freeway when driving in the rain.  Many of the idiots come out of the closet (so to speak).

Got mail yesterday that my youngest daughter passed her teacher certification for Spanish.  She took it b/f and failed by 2 points.  After her getting used to teaching/dealing with h.s. students in DeSoto, she plans to teach there again next year.

Happy Birthday Gordy!!!

Richard can you (really Mary Ann) come in a day early for the 6-7-08 get together?? Oh, what's her favorite drink?? Now, where did I put that recorder?

Southworth: Is your blog down for the count?? Good to know that you believe in creeping evil. Maybe you haven't completely crossed over to the dark side!
