{{{{{{{{{{{{EXCIE}}}}}}}}}}}}} You gonna be ok? I hope so!

yes, niKa...59-14 is somewhat decisive. :)--> Isn't Monday a holiday anyway (Columbus Day)?

Gosh, golly niKa, best I can tell, the OU game is on at the same time as the Sun Devils waddling around in Duck country... both of which apparently televised regionally... so I won't be able to see the OU game... will look for highlights. Be sure and tell us if any of your students makes a big play.

Hey BB... since yur a fiddler, you must been buds with Friedrick and Ruthie...?

Hey BBuzzes, there are some 9th in the Phoenix area... you probably know that, though.

TT kiddo, I'm sure you know you're like minnie mouse (f___g goofy), but you forget, Brad Penny facing Mark Prior and the heavy hitting Cubs... the guppies were simply overmatched. And next (tomorrow) is Kerry Wood, who will victimize the Florida Guppies.

Thanks, O-B, had a tough couple of days. I'm resilient. Today, several signs show an upward trend. And Excie, I DID get the cffm link to work, it probably was done for a short time when I first tried. And it appears to be a good night so far for both the Cubbies and Red Sox.

the CFFM link didn't work for me....

I guess I should be thankful...

I had wanted to take my kid last week, but she didn't want to see it (we went to see Dickie Roberts then... nucking futs). However, this evening, we went to the early showing of this one. I echo all of the above comments... and add that since I have one more in the incessant series of 2003 custody hearings (I won't go into the why, here) on Monday... this was a good way to start the weekend. Actually, those who saw it might understand a little of what I've been going through with my kid. Though my ex isn't as much of a floozy as Walter's mother, the new man problem has some parallels for my daughter (the stepfather and DV, and a mother who is a smooth operator in court)... so, this provides some good food for the kid's thoughts. As I have been ordered to bring her with me Monday to the hearing... Anyway, delightful movie. Loved all the dogs (including Arnold Ziffel's cousin...that's what it reminded me of). Laughed out loud when I saw the barn in the last scene... because it was sooo typical.

Simon, What areas of law will this new FIRM practice in?

Hey Johnny Lingo, We call the former resident of Kansas, niKa for not in Kansas anymore. And some of us get away with calling her Professor niKa, because she teaches English to Oklahoma U athletes (and other freshmen, I believes).

Good news. I just spoke with Simon. Not to worry, not "sleeping it off" and not grouchy. He was unequivocal speaking of his love for the bretheren and sisterns of the 9th. But he was on the road, searching for Home Despot, er, Depot. No doubt he will be back here within a few days.

niKa, Glad you got a smart sister that can help your mom. Banks generally would need the certificate from a county health dept. or state vital records dept., but that can take a looooong time. I'll see if I can drum up SimontheLoaded.

Rev TT, how do you know he's been getting any of it lately?

Tommy S, MOI? Of course, it's not like you haven't contributed... but you do it so nicely. And OurSeestorEX, YOU too are special!

IgotHope, Fear? What FEAR!? I thought it was survival instinct... And yes, both SimonZ and me live in central Arizona, he in Phoenix, me in a 'burb SE of Phoenix. Just a hop, skip and jump to LV.

One has to wonder if IgotHope, in his drive to tempt God, isn't simply having a late start and variation on mid-life. I don't even think I'd be interested in watching this. I vividly remember a news story about European newlyweds plunging to their death, this way, together, unsuspectingly. There has to be less dangerous ways to be silly in Las Vegas...

What is this in mine ear? The Reverend Tuttle knows not of the famous Las Vegas buffet? In many hotels and casinos, of course the idea of free libations to those with cash flowing like Niagara is well known. But also to feed the weary traveler to loosen the change gripping in one's pocket or purse, many provide a low price buffet... or so it was the last time I was in Lost Wages.

think Geer will show up?

Hey Tom, great idea. And if you want to give me a Xmas present, I need it by Nov 9... anyone notice how they both have aged. you can see it on their faces, but certainly not hear it in their voices. What a soothing tonic it would (will) be to go to one of the concerts. I am not a concert going person. I think, other than when I was in twi and going to way prod concerts, and other than symphony orchestra concerts, I can only think of one other concert I've been to, and that was CCR, Credence Clearwater Revival, back in the late 1960s or early 1970s. But this is one that I won't miss, if I can help it.

So sorry sista niKa. No doubt he meant a heck of a lot to you, to your mom and to your kids. You've got them prayers. Take care of yourself. That's an easy thing to forget at a time like this.

I'm on the MST, which is the same as PDT. I got the info from a standard news source. azcentral.com before I had even seen the show. S and G were great. wish I could go to one of the concerts.

Letterman's got a longtime sweetie. She's six months pregnant. That's the announcement... or what I read earlier today it was. He's apparently thinking about marrying her. Won't stop him from flirting with beautiful female guests... like did you see him and Sharon Stone this week.... hotcha cha cha. They were kissin like they were, well not like they would if they were married. Letterman should be on in about a half hour here.

Yeah, i read that too... thanks for posting it Hope. I won't miss it. btw, in AG's bio, it says the two grew up together around Forest Hills in Queens (so they started out right at home with that concert) and first sang together publicly about age 11... I sure would like to make it to the Nov 9 concert, gonna try.
