SHARING SOME FUN!


Elizabeth Vargas is Fun!

Yesterday was spent at a special computer shop--my fourth--after chips were discovered on my Logic Board and other expensive mechanisms enough to force a decision with a new Laptop after so many losses. I gave a new model a spin for a couple of hours and with two exceptions, I managed to visit each of you over the past 48 hours and discovered some beautiful news to share. Gina at THE ENGLISH STUDENT is engaged! Victoria of SHHH! VICTORIA'S SECRET! (not the store, but she could easily be one of their spokespersons!) has been a super Blog Bud and she Blogged about newfound Love & Happiness! ZULU'S SUBJECTIVENESS celebrated her daughter's 18th Birthday! Wow, I can remember my 87-year-young Aunt telling me at 16: "Live it up, honey cause you're only young once". I was able to pass along some good news to THOMAS SIEFERT--"our man in London"-- that The Beatle's film, "Let It Be" IS on DVD! I'm sure he is celebrating in either Danish or English! WEBMIZTRIS deliberated how she would handle a girl kicking another little kid--a boy in the Cahunas! There are babies about to be born and a couple of people like me awaiting word on Interviews. For others: Romance (spelled with a Capital R) is "in the air". No word yet from Donald Trump or Jennifer Love-Hewitt--which leads me to believe neither received my Blog months ago. What a missed opportunity for The Donald to grab some press, me a plane ride to L.A. and meeting Jennifer...well. Let's not get serious even though this next item will kill you. I heard my first-ever Podcast of (who else?) GOLFWIDOW'S MINISTRY OF SILLY WALKS and it was at least cool to put a voice with the friendly Bumble Bee I interviewed recently. And smooth! It's so cool to be right about something once in a blue moon, and I still take credit for the idea of an obscure cable TV show ala "Waynes' World" replete with a studio in GW's basement as she glides effortlessly between patter and commercials. They were so diabolical that I had to scribble them down and then look them up. My God! They sounded like sponsors! Heather and Collin of MATTED SPAM explored a very cool Castle and it really was a draw as to who was the better photographer. But whatever you do, DO NOT miss CALM SEA, Tutu Bent's Hawaiian-based website that currently features the cutest film of her grandaughter playing tennis! I advised Tutu that I'm relieved someone s training when the lovely Serna and Venus Williams retire and begin their second careers modeling and doing TV commercials!

A lady entered the Computer Shop and asked who wanted two kittens? I told her about a No-Kill Shelter and I feel certain the Cat's will soon be lounging comfortably atop air conditioning ducts along the floor of their new homes! After all, they are "Cool Cats" for more reasons than one! Although one young guy who was a technitian was honest about why he wouldn't adopt. "Man, I just can't handle their attitudes". (I started to laugh--what's new?--about this time). He continued. "They just don't care!" Lady with the Cats: "Their attitudes can be formed by you! No, you just have to work with them and they'll come around". No takers. LOIS LANE posted some cool kids pics too. We all need to be reminded what fun it is to be a kid no matter what age.

Yesterday morning was the first time in over two years that I actually worked out at 7 A.M. Nothing was on television the night before and I experienced what Denny Shane talked about recently with Channel Surfing. I left Rev. Robert Tilton (of "Abasoyalatoyachimichanga" fame--God Help Us All!) on just long enough to crack up at his schtick about "Vowing" a thousand dollars and how it was Biblical. I wondered how he would do as a shrink on a Soap Opera and changed channels before the nausea began. At 1 A.M. it seemed like a good idea to clean out the refrigerator and get rid of leftovers that just never made it to the proverbial Side B (for all of you who remember Vinyl records).

The car has new tires, brakes and get's scheduled engine maintenance tomorrow, so the Enterprise Rent-A-Car Guy stopped by and picked me up (without Paige Davis) for a lift back to their office to lease the car (without the paper bag on the window). On the heels of corporate rudeness, I have a nice telephone call to share with you--actually a Voicemail from the Chairwoman of Paige Davis' former Cable Network. I had mailed her a short, but well thought out letter encapsulating four years of beating on the doors of she and her business partners. Syntax? Her message was very kind and very genuine and I appreciated her sharing where the industry is (for the minute).

Teresa: I'll give you a one word hint as I snap my fingers in 4/4 time: "Cool". lol!

Monica: If "The Donald" finally reads this and lends me his Jet Copter (I'm flexible, since he never answered me about the plane) then I'll be over with a ton of popcorn and Lite Diet Margarine---probably organically done--however they do that! lol! Okay, back to the movie....

Dawn: Oh no! We need to talk about this. I like her! She's bubbly. She's cute and what a great date she would make. Plus we both went to SMU. She finished in 1992; I finished in 1999. I would have prefered meeting her to my adventure with Martie MaGuire--believe me.
