  1. Favorite part of the show: Slide saying, "This next song is entitled 'Someday My Prince Will Come', and I'm dedicating it to ........ my big sister, Aletra." As Mark mentioned, she's 88 years old. I guess good men sometimes *are* hard to find... Second favorite part of the show: Watching Virtue watching Slide, her head bobbing and her face beaming...
  2. .... and my girl, Virtue.
  3. Here are the Sisters....
  4. Here are some pics of Slide Hampton and the Hampton Sisters at the tribute concert in November here in Indianapolis. Unfortunately my meager scanner does not do them justice, but I still wanted to share them w/everyone. These were taken by our own sheldonm; he graciously gave these to me so I could have them signed by Slide and the Sisters last Friday at the Jazz Kitchen. It was a terrific show that was only made better by having signed momentos of these great musicians. Thanks Mark!
  5. I heard that Omarossa is Kwame in drag.
  6. word (as it were...)
  7. I remember when my niece first saw the Easter Bunny.... all six foot 5 inches of him (not including ears). Scared the hell out of her.
  8. It's OK... you can watch.
  9. Can't a girl mess around on a thread on the downlow w/o everybody watching?
  10. Heck, I'm *not* squeamish with eyes (working in Ophthalmology, you should see what I get to see sometimes ) and this creeps me out. I guess it's a case of "give the people what they want.." Amazing what people will do to themselves while paying out of pocket.
  11. test
  12. Thanks for reminding me that the "Big O" ( ) will be back on "The Apprentice" tonight. I've gone all day thinking today was Wednesday. Love to hate her! I'll admit it; I watch American Idol just about every week, and I belong in the same "what the heck is John Stevens still doing up there, geez this is embarrassing to watch" camp. I agree with Dan that Paula Abdul telling them their singing is a little "pitchy" is just, well, pure comedy. Edited to add: Did anybody see Donald Trump on Saturday Night Live? I thought it was hilarious.
  13. Wow--I haven't thought of that song in years! Great one!
  14. We have a tree growing out of the roof of a courthouse
  15. Agreed. This is worth a road trip.
  16. This is some of the best of the Steely Dan Website
  17. "A man is only as old as the woman he feels."
  18. Boy, they sure Handel'd that situation!
  19. Weren' you really big into video games back in the day? hmmmm....
  20. B3-er, were you freaked out in your dream when you realized you were pregnant? or did it seem normal? Also, did you awaken in a cold sweat thinking that you might have had to give birth. I don't think most men could do it.
  21. The *airplane-flying-in-parking-garage* theme almost sounds like something that could written for the TV show "Alias". I agree that most of my nightmares as an adult involve situations that are extremely harrowing yet entirely plausible, which is what makes them terrifying. I had the *back-in-school* dream again last night... only this time instead of forgetting where my locker is, I forgot to log off the computer and all my personal stuff suddenly became this huge Power Point presentation for the entire student body. The majority of the dream involved me trying to make my way back to the room where I was logged on and the scenarios that prevented me from getting there. I woke up exhausted.
  22. Oops, sorry; I mean the ones where I'm flying (like a bird). Or I've dreamt that suddenly I have the ability to fly a plane. I've never had a dream like yours.
  23. I have a recurring dream similar to that. One scenario is that I'm actually back in high school; it's time for finals, and I realize that I've *forgotten* to take one particular course (usually math). Obvious stress ensues yada yada. Another school-related dream is that I cannot find my locker or remember the combination to the lock and the *late bell* is about to ring, and I just keep searching down these circuitous halls always ending up where I started. Then there's the one where I move away and forget to take my dog and don't realize it until about a year later. That one is especially vivid and bothersome. The flying dreams are particularly fun.
  24. Tonight it's the Jazz Kitchen for the start of their 10 year anniversary celebration. The line-up is The Hampton Sisters and the Slide Hampton Quintet. Tomorrow, Sunday, and Monday are just for chillin'. I'm house- and cat-sitting, and my view is of endless woods and deer in addition to a killer sound system. We don't have to change our clocks, so I won't be missing that hour or trying to find every clock in two houses to change.... *that* would be a drag. Happy Weekend everybody! EDIT: I'll miss the Pacers game so Sports Center will be mandatory.
