13770. robertjayb - 2/10/2005 1:26:00 AM Well done, Judith. 13771. robertjayb - 2/10/2005 1:31:08 AM R.I.P., jazzman Jimmy Smith, master of the Hammond organ, dead at 79. Now in heavy rotation at club jayb. 13772. Magoseph - 2/10/2005 6:10:26 PM Hello, folks--brilliant sun now--I am on my way to town to see what the regulars are up to in my other cafe place--no doubt talking about everything, but what Bush is doing these days.
What's up with you? 13773. Jenerator - 2/10/2005 8:19:09 PM Judith,
Glad you are on the road to recovery!
Thougtful,
I can't decide what I love more, the jeep or the neighborhood!;-) Well done on the restoration. 13774. thoughtful - 2/10/2005 8:31:15 PM thanks jen. 13775. Magoseph - 2/10/2005 9:18:03 PM I forgot to thank you for the pictures of your 1948 jeep, thoughtful. Flexy liked them very much—they reminded him of his ‘illustrious past’, so he told me—I had to listen to his adventures with that particular model for hours--not that I minded, of course, the poor man has to listen to mine on my famous vespa. 13776. thoughtful - 2/10/2005 9:35:30 PM So glad it brought back fond memories for flexy. A lot of people seem to have memories of those things. One fellow from Latvia said he's seen jeeps just like that all over Russia...apparently they reverse engineered the ones the GIs left behind in WWII and made many.
Another fellow was from India and it brought back fond memories of he and his buds driving over undrivable roads in that country. 13777. Max Macks - 2/11/2005 3:24:54 AM Just came from library and read
the latest Issue of the New Yorker Mag.
very gloomy reading in this last issue
re. Sharon and Bush and Palestine.
do you folks get the New Yorker or read it somewhere?? 13778. wonkers2 - 2/11/2005 4:09:13 AM Great magazine--Hertzberg, Hersh, Updike and great cartoons. My problem is that I don't have time to read all the good stuff in it, and I end up with stacks of partially read New Yorkers around the house which I don't get around to reading but can't bring myself to throw away. 13779. judithathome - 2/11/2005 5:43:56 AM I do that with Harpers and The Atlantic...my last two subscriptions. I just had far too many stacks of unread magazines so I dropped all but those two.
And we won't mention all the unread books I've been collecting lately...sheesh!
I think I may have solved the reason I've not been reading much, though. Got new, smaller lenses in new glasses and since they are progressive bifocals, the reading area is not quite so low down on the lens as were my other ones...it's much easier to read with these.
Which may be the reason I just finished I Am Charlotte Simmons at over 600 pages! 13780. Magoseph - 2/11/2005 3:40:12 PM Judith, discussing the book’s description of frat parties with my sons last evening brought about some interesting facts of their college years. 13781. Magoseph - 2/11/2005 3:40:32 PM Hello, Moties. 13782. wonkers2 - 2/11/2005 4:37:47 PM Bonjour! 13783. judithathome - 2/11/2005 5:22:07 PM Good Morning....
Magos, was it a good comparison or a bad comparison to the book? For some reason, I thought those in the book were fairly accurate. ;-) 13784. iiibbb - 2/11/2005 5:29:46 PM Cool site of the day
my name was in the top 6 once.13785. Magoseph - 2/11/2005 5:44:52 PM Judith, it was a rather good comparison, if I believe what my sons tell me. I saw a fraternity house the day after a bash and I can tell you that it was a horrible sight. I took a group of foreign students there for a visit and when we entered the hall, I retreated and closed the doors before they could smell the place and see the mayhem. This frat house was not the best on campus, but I understood then that the best one was much worse. 13786. Magoseph - 2/11/2005 5:47:09 PM iiibbb, what exactly one does on this site? 13787. judithathome - 2/11/2005 5:54:56 PM Ha! My name was number 8....in the 1940s! 13788. judithathome - 2/11/2005 5:56:40 PM My mom was on a roll...my sister's name was #7 in the 50s. 13789. Magoseph - 2/11/2005 5:57:16 PM I am so dense.
