From the article about the "Subway Superman" and his recognitions.
The last recipient was Housing Authority employee Felix Vasquez, who caught a baby thrown from a New York City burning building in 2005.
Well, a couple of day's ago, two guys caught a kid who fell off a fire escape. It might be a big year for heros in New York.
I don't think I have a cleaning and organizing mode. It's really too bad.
FInger~ma to DJ and Suzi - no more injuries! Especially to typing parts - how can you complain if you can't type?
how can you complain if you can't type
I'm pretty good at typing one handed. It is slower, but still works. For posts. Not essays.
K-Bug is trying to make Pad Thai without touching the raw chicken. It is humorous to watch.
we went out to lunch. Ate too much . there is warm sun on the bed....hmmmm.....
Yeah for all the cleaners and de-christmasifyers. I bow in your general direction. I was going to clean. But I got a cold. I also got my present for my mom late, after I had given her another and decided this would be for her birthday in February. It's S1-3 of
The Waltons.
But did I mention I have a cold? Well, I do. So I was weak. Weak, and also thrifty, so I thought I should watch
The Waltons
first, before giving it to my mom.
A bit of backstory: When I was a kid,
The Waltons
was the only show my mom would regularly let me watch. I loved it, but dreamed of watching other shows. Visions of
Little House on the Prairie, Mork and Mindy,
and
The Dukes of Hazzard
danced in my head, but pretty much it was
The Waltons.
Even when we had no TV, my mom would search out friends with TVs to visit on
The Waltons
night so that I could see it and not be a DEPRIVED CHILD. You might think that this would make me hate
The Waltons
as a form of rebellion or something, but instead, for years it was the One. True. Show, until it was eclipsed by the True. One. True. Show:
Firefly.
At this point, I hadn't seen
The Waltons
for ages. I expected that watching it would be a little like watching
Little House on the Prairie
reruns - kind of fun, but not as satisfying as the original. OMGWTF
The Waltons
is freakin' fantastic!! I don't know if I'm going to be able to give my mom these DVDs. If I learned anything from this show, it would be that I would be selfless and give them to her, but I may have learned a bit too much from watching
Firefly.

because I just can't help myself.
We've gotten as far as bringing the christmas boxes up from the garage.
You're ahead of us. The Christmas boxes never left our living room.
