some of the best things in life are still free--- like the tiny little screw that attaches my ear to my eyeglasses...thus improving the problem i was having with tripple vision..
this ghost of 37 boxford rd did not see fit to return the screw for a second time...-- so costco fixed it..
a camera person was quick to point out that after tuesdays mail call, it was evident there were quite a few loose screws at sdp.

and the whale of a party the cp's are providing in jan at caletri's.... i had no idea what could be in that envelope i was not to open til tuesday mail call.. what a great idea. and a terriffic surprize-- jan 11th --- so far everyone is coming.... how can we film it ?live?? so everyone can be there in spirit??? maybe we need a spirit basket again?
on the topic of mail call-- and aquiring sound..... most are really looking forward to it... several have worried that it might upset the spontinunity ( i wish this machine would stop trying to correct that word-- i like it.) --- to worry about the spontinunity... implies things might be written and rehearsed.... let me assure you you could not make this stuff up-- and rehearsal is just not in our language.
. so it will be "que sera, sera"
see -- i can even mispell in spanish
i took 4 years of spanish and there is one story worth remembering..
"a man goes into a clothing store and wants to buy some socks-- he speaks spanish-- the clerk does not.
after about 10 minutes of wild hand movements- the clerk finally pulls out a pair of socks..
and the man says "esso si que es"
and the clerk says " why didn't you tell me you could spell it"
4 years of public education on taxpayers money and that is it..
at least it is a fair decent joke... no?
********
that along with 4 years of college which only taught me what a deadline was.... i am a little down on the typical education process in this country....( TED ken robertson)

back to the important things..
like 2 white pups going out to pee....-- i di d manage to get them up and out for a peeing party-- they were soo pleased with themselves... opal was the baby sitter.
i have tossed the gauntlet to the surrounding population... being blessed with 3 nearly white pups, i think we-- as a group-- ought to be able to produce a troika to pull that little wagon-- boy ... what that would do for the deaf awareness project... there is a famous painting "the pharoh's horses"-- which is 3 white horses-- we could do that with dogs...-- perfectly good goal...
i used to go to beverly school for the deaf and talk( with interperter) about how pandymonium had a great job in the movies because she was so well "schooled" in spite of her deafness.
first challange with the troika would be-- if they are deaf-- and out in front of you .... how do you steer? rigging lines will be a challlange.
when i drove the 8 donkeys, i had 8 lines-- 4 and 4---- which was fine til my nose itched
*********
oh... i got my cough report--- turns out it is basically megasophagus-- like deagle -- inefficient swallowing-- but i love the doctor's recommendation--- walking around eating klondike bars is far healthier than lying in bed drinking chicken soup..
