No. I'm forcing something educational on the girls - we're watching Planet Earth. They seem to actually like it and it looks amazing in HD.

Those DVDs are ridiculously great. Just so beautiful.

All fenominable. :D

Feinstein is a very good writer and an excellent storyteller. I've enjoyed his books very much, but, in my opinion, he's a lob wedge short of the great literature category.

Try Bernard Darwin on Golf by Bernard Darwin (!) for some mighty fine prose.

That's fine. I appreciate you taking one for me so that it doesn't upset the balance of the earth. Or at least the box.

I like experiencing Planet Earth in real life. Perhaps I need to get a non-sucktastic camera soon. Would do it before next month's KOA trip but I just had a $550 expense over the weekend ...

Anyone watching the NCAA basketball finals tonight? That game is ridiculous. Michigan State is getting their donkey handed to them all over the court.

I grew tired of it by half time and then watched an episode of Star Trek TNG I had not seen.

Do you think I drink wine from a box? Or are you referring to the Box? :D;)

In either case, I should have bought more than 9 bottles last weekend ...

From what I've just read, the above seems to be a canard.

To wit: my previous post about drunk-posting was me correcting (via "Edit") a post that I had meant to revise, but "Quoted" (new post) instead of "Edited" (existing post) ... Otherwise, I would have a duplicate post.

The one Feinstein title that I can't bring myself to read is Caddie for Life.
