Dom. thanks for the kind words. I think I will go buy some anti-age cream, hair dye, or perhaps have my portait painted. Do you know any artists? Or should I invest in a cane or walker? I feel the grey brain cells dying as I type.

Jennifer, I bought sandles the other day. I was being very hopeful.

Dom, my son with be 21 on the 12th of Feb. Can't believe it. How did I get this old with a kid that is going to be legal? He goes back to school in a week, so the second crew will be put to work. MInd you I don't think he has had a drink yet. Hehe. I didn't either till I was legal. If you believe that I have some land for sale.

Calendar Events / Announcements '03 I / Re: Gothic Horror in Times Scquare article

This is the first I had heard of this. There was nothing about this sad and shocking event in my local paper. I am sure had it reached any of my friends or family I would have heard about it. The whole thing is very tragic.

A lot of people in general don't get the whole fan fest thing, now there is a good chance they are going to associate them with lonely, sad, people.

In the second article what was the bodice ripping vampire comment? Did any of you ever see that happen? Cheep trash!

Dom, my son will gladly share the shovel with you.

Birdie--who can't imagine living anywhere else but New England, but who know?

Carol, the local drivers Ed. has a course that they have the kids complete. It is called "Skid School". They have to pass it along with the regular drivers ed. stuff. Afterward the kids get a T-shirt. Retired State Troopers usually teach it.

Birdie-- I of course had to learn in the family tank going down 122, don't step on the brakes...

Nobody has lived until they have done a complete spin around on the street or driveway {this morning} and lived to tell. You wonder why I am nuts, I have two college kids driving in this crap.

Hey, anyone interested in a sledding party in my back yard! Just watch out for the pool. Hot coco and brandy will be offered.

Midnite, we would be happy to introduce you to snow.

I hate to say this. Don't want to jinks myself, so far I have not had that problem. It might be your cable company.

I tend to tape DS even if I am home. Doesn't everyone want eight thousand tapes in a closet in the rec room. I don't feel totally quilty I can get ready for work or do house hold chores while it is on, and watch later in my down time. Sometimes I can drink coffee and pat the dog while it is on too.

Birdie--who in this lovely weather did a total spin around in the driveway this morning on her way to the dentist, and now has to bake a birthday cake.

Just have to say thank goodness for DS it has been a saving grace this week. Can you believe it has snowed everyday! I am seeing white everywhere. My poor son home on semester break has become one with the shovel. Bob, a girl at school told him he looked like Ben Affleck , do you think J. Lo would be interested. hehe. Of course, I don't know if the girl was sober.

I loved todays second episode. It was so rewarding seeing Dirk lying there speechless and not mauling someone. Glad to see Laura get a nice surprise, first the Barnster than Angie. Barnabas was in great form today too.

Thanks for letting me vent. I guess I can gear up for yet more snow tomorrow.

Birdie--living in a winter wonderland looks pretty but would rather be some place warm
