Well, I posted this same thing a few other places already so I’m not going to do it again. But just keeping you guys on the loop here. August 12 was Thailand’s mother’s day and the Queen’s birthday. From what I know of mom’s conditions, I didn’t call her but I call home and talked to my dad. “It was right for you to call here,” dad said. “She’s no longer ‘here’ with us. But your mother’s day card got her in the middle of the week though. I showed it to her and she did look at it. I...

I have just upgraded to WordPress 2.2 and obviously am still working out all the kinks. Yes, that was why site disappeared for a few moments today and now the side bar is kind of back but not really. And apparently my RSS feed seems to work for some people but not everyone. (That is unrelated and I can’t figure that out yet either.) I’m just not 1337 enough to fix all the problems. So I dispatched the calvary. Actually, if YOU happen to know what I am doing wrong, by all means please throw me the bone. I’d really...

#1 I’m a Doctor Who newbie, having started watching the new version just this season. I didn’t like the guy who played the last Doctor and I really didn’t like Rose. But the new pair of Doctor and Martha Jones, these two are cute together. Anyways, last night’s episode…NO SPOILER HERE…Martha was introducing the Doctor to everyone as, well, “the Doctor”. Her mom said, “And you’re Doctor….?” And Martha said, “Just the Doctor.” Light bulb went on in my little brain. Me: Oh, NOW I get it! B: What? Me: “Doctor Who! He’s just ‘the Doctor’. No name. Just ‘the...

First. Folks, Reggie the Alligator made his debut at the LA Zoo. A little bit of back story for folks who are not familiar. In 2005, Reggie was dumped into a public lake by, of all people who should know better, 2 ex-LAPD officers because he was too big. Reggie popped up in the lake and scared the bejezzus out of people. All sorts of crocodile experts came by to try to catch him, but he eluded them all even the late Steve Irwin. Eventually, earlier this year, he wandered onto land and that was it. Brandon and I have...

Hi. I’m alive. Sorry for disappearing. The social calendar has become a nuclear fusion. Folks start to pop in to say “Hi, how are ya? Let’s have lunch/dinner/go shopping/go to the movie!” from all directions. Dios mio! I don’t even have time to do laundry! I mean, I have been wearing skirts 2 days in a row and that is starting to scare people in the office. LOL. Pretty much, I have 2 pairs of standard pants that I’d wear, the gray one and the black with pin stripes. Occasionally, I’ll go with skirts. So, when I run out of...

Thailand’s Royal Po-pos have GOT to find something else better to do with their time than this! Turning pink with shame A pink ”Hello Kitty” armband wrapped around a khaki-clad arm is shouting for attention at the police Crime Suppression Division. It is a new disciplinary measure introduced especially for police investigators who refuse to play by the rules. Oh, and right above it on the webpage, the headline reads like this: 193 killed, 1,056 wounded in 5 months in troubled South I mean, seriously. What the fuck!?!? While the South is going to hell in a radical Muslim hand...
