MAKING GOOD ON AN EARLIER PROMISE AND JUDGE JUDY!


I must admit that I like Judge Judy Sheindlin's style. She gets to the bottom of it and that's it! I didn't know this, but on February 14th along the sidewalk of Hollywood Boulevard the Judge became the 2,304th star to join the Walk of Fame. I saw her on Larry King Live and I like her no-nonsense rules about maintaining control of the Courtroom. She's remarkably thought-provoking on the Law and allows that she never thought her show would last one season (it's now into its 10th season). She says that people tune in because they know something is going to happen, they just don't know what. In one case of bickering divorcees, she told them to recess out in the hall and work out a sensible visitation schedule like adults, or so help her God she was feeding their pile of motions through a shredder. "Next case!" I'm telling you, she get's a lot done!!...new topic:

Before I became distracted by the Leonard Nimoy and William Shatner recording story below in another Blog, I was about to provide my Annual Summertime Drink. For this year, I picked one called "Beam Me Up, Scotty"--yes, yes I know. That's how the whole recording subject came along. But now that I've recovered from the severe laughter and sore sides with the aid of a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (Aspirin), here it is:

Take 1 ounce of Kahlua,

Ready? Next we're going to take 1/2 ounce of Bailey's Irish Cream

Okay, now add 1/2 ounce of Creme de Banana

Now for the big finish--swirl and strain into a shooters glass.

And Voila!

IT'S FRIDAY---ENJOY IT RESPONSIBLY !

(and by all means have a fun look at Bill & Leonard below!)

No thanks on the Judge Judy show, Michael but I'm quite happy to try out the drink. And I've got all 3 ingredients at home already so that's easy. Beam me up!

Thanks for the drink recipie, sounds wonderful. The only problem is, I will have to buy whole bottles to make the drinks. Around here these delightful liquors dont last long. I think I'll wait untill we have some company that way I wont pickle myself! When I do I'll cite you as the source of the Beam me up Scotty concoction.

Lee Ann: I hope your weekend is filled with Laughter and Friends! You are so nice to write!

Susan: With my diet regimen I cannot drink anything right now, but you're right. It's hard to find the tiny bottles of these otherwise expensive liquors. And besides, it's the thought that counts. Enjoy the weekend!

i LOVe judge judy! she is always oN point.

she reminds me of Dr. Laura when she cuts people off before they waste anymore of her time! LOL

p.s. my husband has a drink of wine every single night. is he giving me a hint? LOL

Tanyetta: While not a Dr. Laura fan, I like Judge Judy and found her very thoughtful on the subjects discussed on a recent "Larry King Live". On the wine, I'm the wrong person to ask since I get death ill from it due to an allergic reaction. I don't miss it.

I adore Judge Judy. In fact, I have a standing date with my guys to watch it together at 4pm during the school year.

It's a good primer for them on what NOT to do! LOL

Atilla the Mom: She takes care of business, that's for sure! A "good primer"...how funny. A new way to look at Judge Judy!!!:)
