That came off wrong, sorry.

Judith....

On Sunday I chatted with Obama's Southern Field Director who WAS press secretary for the new DA of Big D.

What's he like???

I've no idea, Jex...Dallas is Jen's balliwick.

Judith, the pants came in today and they're perfect! Much more comfortable than jeans and I can wear them regularly with our dress code because they look great. Just what I needed!

22463. judithathome - 8/15/2007 11:41:52 PM

Glad you liked them, Arky. I just wish the color selection was better...the brown ones are really nice but teamed with a pair of Tinky Winky lavender ones? No way!

Hi Betty Jo!


Hi Magoseph (sorry to hear about your relative)

22465. Jenerator - 8/17/2007 4:24:25 AM

Jex,

Toby Shook should have been DA, but he lost by a complete surprise upset to Craig Watkins who has a solid reputation is being unqualified for the job. He's considered the same quality as John Wiley Price (and voted in the same way, too).

Hopefully he'll prove everyone wrong and do a good job here. I haven't heard of anything revolutionary yet. Time will tell.

A Dallas Assistant DA I had a crush on:

Good morning, everyone, and thanks to Arky, Judith, and Jen for their kind words!

Hi guys
Welcome to Betty Jo

Question: any of youse guys do the nyt daily crossword puzzles? I'm stumped by Thursdays...I mean I got the puzzle, but there is an imbedded theme that makes sense of the long answers, but I'll be dipped if I can figure it out. Of course, the answers today only show I got the puzzle, but give me no idea as to the theme.

I won't say more at this point in case someone hasn't gotten to it yet.

22469. thoughtful - 8/17/2007 1:40:39 PM

J@h, so sorry to hear about your foot...seems you've been having a lot of bone issues lately...is there an underlying cause to be investigating?

22470. thoughtful - 8/17/2007 3:28:24 PM

Nevermind about the xword puzzle...I got it.

22471. Magoseph - 8/17/2007 5:17:39 PM

All I can see in this one is that if you take the last letter of 18-across and put it first, you get TRUST IN ME. Doing the same for 20, 54, and 57 across, I guess, justify FROM START TO FINISH. Is this what you found, Thoughtful?

I was just thinking about popular music when I was a teenager and before....when someone could put out an album that had both Green Onions and Alley Cat on it and nobody would think anything of it. ...when Kenny Starr was a pop singer, not a prosecutor.

I just picked up an album by Pete Drake which includes some of the first uses ever of the 'talk box' which he used with steel guitar.

We had Chicken Marengo tonight. And that tubed French bread.

The cookbook said it was a throw-in-the-pot-what-we-have kind of dish, but Napoleon's battle of Marengo made it famous.

Chickens, mushrooms and tomatoes. A tad garlic. The secret is in the tomato paste from my recipe, though.

Hi Jen. Thank you for the welcome, thoughtful.

Breakfast at the Spencers:

With those beauties you need Jimmy Dean's sage sausage and ribbon cane syrup...Larrupin good!

22477. judithathome - 8/19/2007 9:19:44 PM

We had bacon and omelets and wild blueberry preserves. AND some peppered gravy!

22478. arkymalarky - 8/19/2007 11:12:41 PM

Oh man, how lovely! I had one a day after y'all left until they were gone.
