Stuff on TV in the middle of the week
I did enjoy the results show of Dancing with the Stars last night. I was glad Misty made it through the surgery alright. I was glad Cloris Leachman wasn't sent packing as the lowest score by the judges. The audience including me pulled her from the fryer. Speaking of fryer, the Chef Rocco would have been sent home if it weren't for Misty pulling out of the show because of her injuries. Hopefully everyone will work twice as hard next week to make a better performance. After the Dance with the Stars show, the second debate between Obama and McCain started. It was like two roosters sparing off against each other until the moderator told them to stop fighting. I came into the debate with views which I had already made, but I left the debate feeling the same way. I am sure others held true to their Candidate. What I didn't like were all the analysis after the debate was over. I grew tired of the anchor people reviewing the same material over and over. I did not get to see the scandal show on 20/20. It involved Christy Brinkley's ex husband and why he cheated on her. Sometimes I just love juicy gossip. I guess this is why I can tolerate the Celebrity stories on "Inside Edition." This is a picture of my mom and my sister when she came over and spent the night at our house. They liked going to the beach. The weather isn't cool outdoors. It is still warm and muggy. However, the air conditioning unit works fine. The coffee is good this morning and my book renewal is OK. I don't have to return my two books until later in the month.

Good picture of your mom and Glendon. I notice that they seem to have the same eye color of green. Got to watch part of Dancing with the Stars. It is sad in a way that someone has to lose each week. No matter how good they did, one person has to go. It reminds me of my ten week Health Physics training course that I attended in Oak Ridge, TN for the state. At the end of each week there was a big test. On Monday the instructor would write on the blackboard how many there were of each score. Like 97-2 meant that two people got a score of 97 on the test. All the scores would be listed in this manner so that you could see how you did in relation to the rest of the class. At the end of the ten weeks they would send a notice to your states radiation control director advising them of your class standing as to whether you were in the top third of the class, the middle third or the bottom third. They wouldn't send your final score, only your class ranking. So one third of the people were condemned to be in the bottom third because of the reporting method used. And of course their bosses would not be happy if you were in the bottom third. Everyone could get final scores in the 90's and yet all your boss knew was that an individual was in the bottom third. Well, I wasn't in the bottom third. I got very ill right in the beginning of the course and so I finished in the middle third. And sure enough, upon my return to work in Miami I got a call from the agency director wanting to know why I was in the middle third instead of the top third. He wanted to know what the people in the top third had done that I had not done. He was annoyed. So Dancing with the Stars is a little reminiscent of that for me in that no matter how good a person is, they may still have to leave. And if you like scandals and celebrity gossip, just read the Enquirer. If it is too expensive then just do like I do which is to read as much as I can while standing in line at the register at the grocery store waiting to check out. But if you can afford them, they have a great crossword puzzle in each issue. Have a great day. Lew
