How very cool of him/for you!

No, you sillies, HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!

I love Ken in a solo live show! How was it? How was attendance? Carrie, if you start this thread I can definitely contribute. Also, was Tim Rogers as adorable as always, as with the rest of YAI?

And there you have the opening line of your new blues song!

I loved it as well and have been pushing all my friends to go see it while it is still in theaters...there is so much to be seen! A feast for the eyes. Just brilliant, howlingly funny, and poignant, all at once. I'm going to try to see it a second time too.

Fingers crossed for you, Leigh!

I was late to this too, and only finished watching it a couple of weeks ago. This show kept my daughter and I up late so many nights, either because we had to see how an episode finished, even if it was 3 am, or because we couldn't stand not to know what came next & had to dip into the next episode! It's a wild ride. I had a hard time watching the final episode, knowing there wouldn't be any more. My husband had never watched it, so lately we've been watching again with him. That's been more fun than I expected, and I've noticed details that add to the story line that I never caught the f

Oh, good choice!

That's a gorgeous shot! Congratulations! it's a tough employment market out there. I hope the job will prove to be a great one!

I'm intrigued with it too! Also want to read The Great Deluge. My reading list keeps getting longer & longer!

Have fun, Lou & Rosie!

It really does!

I loved it. Jeff's deadpan delivery was so believable, and watching him being urged to sing along (and obliging) cracked me up. Good one, Jeff! Loved it.

What a great idea for a kids' party! I'll bet the kids loved it. (But I'll have a polish too.) Kids generally bounce back a lot quicker than adults do.

Happy birthdays to the kiddos! And get well soon to Lammy's & uncool's kids. Having a sick child is worse than being sick yourself. Hope they feel better soon.

I'm sure you wowed them. Good luck!

That sounds outrageous....spending an entire year chasing around the globe trying to sight the most species of birds! I'm a bit of a birder too, and each of my 3 kids had an extensive birding project for high school biology, in which they had to sight at least 50 different species and otherwise identify and describe where & when sighted. It was HARD! After about the first 30 or 35, every bird was a species you'd already seen. The birds had to be sighted in the wild. We got our quota, with each child, but we had to drive up into the local mountains and down to the beach to find more specie

No kidding. If that goes it'll be bad.

We do our best.

Yep, that got the dogs to barking. A solid jolt, a pause, and then a few more good rolls underfoot. Such a strange sensation they are!

This story appeared in our local press earlier this week. The 15 stretches down to San Diego and is a freeway I've taken many times. At the point described, just beyond the Border Checkpoint (a weirdness in itself, in a sort of Checkpoint Charlie way) this freeway is about 4 lanes wide on either side. I've been imagining what it would have been like to be driving home from San Diego, and come upon this scene! That middle paragraph in the second section...60 motorcyclists fighting across the lanes?!! Must've looked like a scene out of a modern day West Side Story. Who knows what started it

That's great news!

This is an interesting read: http://www.wired.com/autopia/2014/03/mh370-electrical-fire/ I'm no aviation engineer, but his take on it sounds plausible. The simplest explanation is often the best. (Occam's razor)

That poor kid!
