Another option

An alternative to a family member's recent political post:

Help me, please

Conversation as we're each at our laptops surfing the web:

cs: Who is Snoop M C Dogg Hammer?

me: Huh? Do you mean Snoop Dogg or MC Hammer? They are two different people.

cs: No, I know what I'm talking about. It's Snoop MC Dogg Hammer.

me: Where did that come from? Because you are woefully misinformed — (not that I'm into rap) and what's more…Yo I told you u can't touch this…it's Hammertime!

MacBook Air & iPod Nano tunes

By now, many of you have probably seen the ad for the new MacBook Air.



The song is catchy — just like the one sung by Feist for the new iPod Nano. Here's the full song by Yael Naïm — that's Mïan Leay spelled backwards!



Hardcore fans of French musical theatre (i.e. FSIL II?) probably knew Yael Naïm as Miriam in the Ten Commandments, but for many of us, we discovered her Feist-like vocals via the MacBook Air ad. Born in Paris and raised primarily in Israel, the singer songwriter has found serious success in France with her self titled album which features Yael singing in English, French and her native tongue. International success is definitely on the way with her easy on the ears soft and acoustic sound.

You've got to love Apple and their Ad Agency for their clever and catchy ads…I know that Naïm & Feist do…all the way to the bank! They each got my 99¢.

Cheeseburger anyone?

Aspiration!

FSIL demonstrated playing his with his nose the other night. Here's a higher aspiration for him to achieve.

Wedding planner list

I've written before about cs' penchant for making lists. Here's a sample of cs 'the wedding planner's' list. (It's written on the inside of a Christmas gift box lid. I'm certain that the missing chunks of the box are "mini-lists" that were removed and stuffed in a pocket or purse for further reference.)

By-the-by, great job with the planning. It was superb! Pam would have been proud.

Someone you love…

Have you seen the ads?

Someone you love may be a numismatist. I've seen several of the ads produced by the U S Mint on TV the last two days. It does a body good.

Mr. Sub

When good people turn bad. Apparently, this is an actual TV commercial from Canada. FSIL II or Sister Megs, do you recognize these two?

To Do list

I need to buy this book, because I'm certain (beyond a shadow of a doubt) that cs was the number one contributor! We are forever finding lists that are written in random order (i.e. shopping lists, to do lists, random thoughts lists, etc.) on the back of envelopes, scraps of paper, and other assorted items. FSIL can be my witness. He was given a list to stop by and pick up some assorted groceries items and had a dilly of a time reading it because unlike most lists that are written top to bottom and side by side this list was written here and there round and round in random spots on the page.

The ToDoList blog is here.

Is it legal?

For those of you that have a concern and wonder where you might be visiting me on the weekends.

It works!

Okay, Lucy, go ahead and try it out and as Dr. Phil says, Let me know how it works out for you…

Report: Many U.S. Parents Outsourcing Child Care Overseas

It could happen…

cs wanted to know if this could really happen and whether or not the church had a back up plan.

Do you know me?

Had a visit last night from Sweet P and her mom.
