Lunch Bunch

The Mr. and Mrs. Old Wildcat Green House, the brussels sprouts, the brain freeze, the doctor sloughing (not concierge), the Spain trip, the seventh grade Skateland memories and the dancing fountains and a bench on a top down kind of day.

AcroCats!

Here Kitty, Kitty, Kitty. The amazing AcroCats at space55 were hilarious. They jumped, they did tricks, they were snotty, they played in a band - The Rock Cats (need more cowbell) as the crowd went wild. We got home and attempted some of the tricks on our own brood.

Nothing.

Looking Up

Even if you weren't raised in Chicago with seven sisters by Holocaust survivors, doesn't mean you won't find yourself and your family in this book. Incredible stories, hilarious characters, heartbreaking moments.

Linda had the audience in hysterics as she read some parts of her book and regaled us all with stories of the favorite sisters, the Holocaust vacations and, hopefully, ideas for the next book.

Job Creator

Hi. I'm a Job Creator. There I am above creating jobs (obviously I need to pitch in more to the Pedicurist down the street, but I've been busy with end-of-the-year stuff). Our little company has four employees. Besides the four of us, I give a lot of money to Cox and immunization manufacturers and the City of Scottsdale and Staples and restaurants around town when we get hungry. Our patients come in and then go out into the neighborhood and spend money at pharmacies and x-ray facilities and Staples and restaurants around town when they get hungry, helping fellow Job Creators. Funny how that works. Seem to remember learnin' something about that in business school. And, oh, I pay my taxes. I have a CPA that puts up with my old pedicures and messy desk, but instead of going all Cayman Island on me, she makes me send in my fair share. Not a wimpy 13.9% like this guy.

Jeez. Look who's talking about handouts and lowering taxes for the wealthy so we'll get more Job Creators. Please. He rakes in over $50,000 a day (YES, A DAY!!) and the only jobs he has created for the past couple of years are for four cleaning ladies to dust and vacuum his various homes, paying them each about $5,000. 

At that rate, hopefully he threw in a few pedicures.

Book Club - The Thousand Autumns of Jacob De Zoet

Off to a good 2012 start at Maddie's. She shoots! She scores!

A houseful of Divas plus a skin care Diva wannabe giving us facials and hand scrubs while a not-so-Diva wannabe videographer documented Leslie's every move as she makes her way to Jobland, snagging a piece of Stardom along the way as she Remakes America

Leslie - aka "The Talent"

We tried to keep it clean, hardly any f-bombs escaped as we cackled on cue about Catherine The Great to Tina Fey as the Everything But Pea Pea soup and homemade bread filled us up.

I couldn't get through the book. Sorry, Mr. David Mitchell. But I've moved on, and in preparation for his visit here next month, I'm brushing up on one of funny man Garrison Keillor's old books, Love Me.

And I do.

State of the Union

Listen up tonight, Washington. And while you're here in Arizona tomorrow, Mr. President, maybe we can chat for a bit.
