here & there
Gray, chilly thoughtful Saturday....here`s some classic family quotes:
eldest: "hi.........................." ( it`s been a lo-o-o ng time )
2nd: " this is your 2nd most favoritist daughter..." (ok)
3rd: " Hey...no Really!.....It`s a Great deal ! "
4th: " I just called to say.....Hey, that`s the name of a song, ha! " ( three times now)
5th: " ...What the heckle ! "
Husband: "...yeah, I know ........." (um-hmm )
These days, living in a way too quiet household, I`ve begun to listen to Public Radio as a source of entertainment, while doing projects and chores. They really are a quite biasedliberal bunch, (especially during an election year). Oftentimes their political and religiouscommmentaries grate on my ears. However...They have other excellent, and varied spotswhich are truly interesting and entertaining. In this past week I have heard news and/orother programs as varied as: The Iran situation with the UN, their request for im-proving their nuclear facility in Netahn. According to the broadcast, Iran already hasenough turbines,and other nuclear material way in excess of the need for further imple-mentation. They could do excessive nuclear damage in the way of weapons and bombswith what they already have. Then, I heard a copy editor , writer of a new book , onnew descriptive terms for wind velocity. Also a comentary on the now archaic "Lobotomy",a Quaker Nude summer Camp for boys, and a contest for the "Hairiest Male in LA"...the prize for which was: a $2,500 gift certificate for permanent hair removal. The human comedy never ceases. Then there is the famous "Prairie Home...whatever" with Garrison Keiler (sp?),"The Car Guys", and "Wait, Wait, Don`t Tell Me " on the weekends, not to forget gourmet cooking,travel, written sequences from several authors and political, medical, millitary, film critics, andmany other issues. And life goes on.
