  1. meaty menu combination
  2. Artist: Olivia Newton-John (mea culpa - a guilty pleasure!) Album: If You Love Me Let Me Know (1974) Track: Mary Skeffington Lyrics: "Go to sleep tonight, dream of days When you had something there to light the way"
  3. Sitting and giving muscles a rest as I cool down from workout and steam room and wait for the clothes I wore to finish in the washing machine.
  4. "Low" calorie Hawaiian pizza with Coke Zero - short preparation time!
  5. 1) Seeing and yet just missing a bus which only comes twice an hour; 2) Getting soaked to the skin despite having and using an umbrella when a deluge occurs while waiting for the next bus; 3) Sitting and working in cold, damp clothes for a few hours while waiting for them to air dry...
  6. Receiving an unexpected and thoughtful card from a friend delivered in an unusual manner.
  7. who adventurously partook
  8. East of Eden (1955) - Excellent performance from all of the cast under Elia Kazan's direction. One of the few films by James Dean.(Drive slowly and safely!)
  9. (A birch bark canoe will get you farther on a lake than a maple syrup one...) A tablet (easier to carry as an e-book reader!) Pet: fish or lizard?
  10. Drinking coffee, eating toast, and watching the Daily Show on the PVR.
  11. Cujo (1983) - If you want to see a movie about a friendly Saint Bernard, then this isn't it....
  12. Zardoz (1974) - Think that Sean Connery never made a bad movie? Then you will be one of the few who likes this sci-fi one....
  13. Weeding and mulching a couple of gardens. Biggest commitment was my time. Nice to see the change which can be made by a couple of hours of focused labour. Should continue to enjoy the return on this investment in flowers until the frost sets in.
  14. Boxers (grey and white plaid) to go with the cool of the evening after another warn day.
  15. X-15 (1961) For the aviation aficionados. Watchable for the role/narration by James Stewart and the acting of Charles Bronson early in his career. The rocket plane itself is the star of this early docu-drama.
  16. BBQ chicken, Caesar salad, carrots, cucumber slices and a glass (OK; two) of Shiraz.

    Matisse recreated

    Worthy of a place in the Musée d'Orsay...
  18. Hard not to be a fan given the choice of "canvas"!
  19. Having to go to work on an otherwise perfect Monday summer morning!
  20. Group: The Road Hammers Album: Blood, Sweat and Steel (2008) Track: Girl on the Billboard Lyrics: "...the girl wearing nothing but a smile and a towel..."
  21. Comforting two dogs during a severe thunderstorm in the middle of the night. One had to be convinced to come out from under the bed. Brought both into the bed and they went to sleep despite the storm. Nice to experience such trust...
  22. Gasoline for my vehicle and lawnmower.
