  1. I love this! I'm way too old to be a fan of the song (although I don't dislike it - it's catchy!), but this is one of my many favorite things from Craig's show. When I saw him at Carnegie Hall, he ended the show with this. Those 2 guys traveled with him to do one number at the end of the evening. Amazing!

    I've been to Cincy twice, once to Riverfront Stadium and once to Great American Ballpark (is that still the name?). I'm glad they won't be building another stadium in my lifetime. I've been to Pittsburgh a few times, once to Three Rivers and 2 or 3 times to PNC because it's my favorite "new" stadium (although I will always love Camden Yards the most). Pittsburgh is a fun town, good food and did I mention the great stadium??

    Holy moly - the Caps are still playing! And not golf... That was quite an exciting game.
  4. Just got home from seeing Mavis Staples at the Kennedy Center. She's a national treasure, a force of nature and totally amazing!!
  5. My Amazon delivery notice said May 15th too, but it was delivered this morning. It's adorable!! I can't wait to give it to my friend's twins!
  6. So, just now there was an actual porn star on network TV introducing this show. We're truly in Upside Down World...

    Ah, AJ. We were at Target Field in Minneapolis and when AJ came up to bat, a guy about 10 rows behind us yelled "AJ - nobody likes you!!!!!!" Because that's as mean as people in Minneapolis get. So now, whenever anyone mentions AJ, my friend and I have to yell that at each other. And people think we're nutz. Because we probably are. I do like him on the TV. He's funny and seems to know what he's talking about. And with that, we're off to the ballpark. Yesterday it was 80. Today it will be 60 and windy. And my team, well the less said, the better. At least there's dinner to look forward to.
  8. I have tickets for August 10th. We're also seeing Boys In The Band on the 6th. Not sure what I'm doing between Monday and Friday that week, but I have a little time to plan.
  9. NYC - the Greatest City in the World!!! Let's see - Midtown... We like Glass House Tavern on 47th. Cafe Un Deux Trois on 44th. Virgil's BBQ on 44th. Marseilles on 44th and 9th. Junior's for dessert on Shubert Alley or the newer one on 7th (?), or is it Broadway around 50th. Esca on 43rd. Joe Allen for the theatre experience on 46th. Right next door is Orso, also fabulous. If you want to venture uptown a bit, Red Farm on Broadway at 76th is my new favorite place to eat. Also uptown is Nice Matin at 79th and Amsterdam. I can think of more places if you need them... Go to a show or twelve!! Have fun!!!

    Too bad that Os-Saux game wasn't postponed...
  11. This so much! I actually miss the last host. Never warmed up to this woman. I'm so happy when the PBS stations in the area aren't in their endless pledge drives because I can turn to the music shows and skip 1st Look! (Not that anyone is forcing me to watch, but...inertia)
  12. Thanks. I was a bit confused (not unusual...). And wow, those Wiki updaters work fast!
  13. Random question - did it sound to anyone else like Darrell Hammond introduced Mulaney as "Mulvaney" at the start of the show?
  14. Thoroughly enjoyed this show. I had no idea I was a fan of John Mulaney until I saw him at the Letterman Mark Twain show. He was hilarious. The show tonight was weird and funny. And there was Jack White. Doesn't get much better. I, too, was annoyed that the good nights were cut off. @jjj, if anything happened at the end, please let us know after you watch.
  15. That Lobster Les Miz skit was fabulous.
  16. @BookWoman56, while my dad was able to get in and out of our cars without too much trouble, a friend of mine who was caregiver for her mother for many years said she preferred a small SUV because of the height, as @emma675 said. Good luck to you. It's a mitzvah, what you're doing.

    Bland is the word I use. As has been said, it's okay - there are much better parks, and a few worse. But, if you're going to see a game in every ballpark, you have to go.

    Have I posted my annual STANLEY CAPS!!!! yet? No? Well, there you go. Soon to be followed by my annual "Choking Dogs" comment.
  19. I clicked on the Yahoo story about Fleetwood Mac firing Lindsey Buckingham. And I'm always sorry I open up the comments, but tonight, someone posted that perhaps he could now devote himself to his appearances on What Up With That. That made me laugh. And in that comment thread was a gif of Jason dancing in the track suit. Loved it.
  20. I've certainly heard of her, but I don't really know anything about her. But if she's trying to hide a pregnancy, she's not doing a really good job of it.
  21. Couch leggings. My life, right there. I need these. I agree with @Galileo908 - the last 40 minutes of the show were not really good. But I enjoyed most of it before then. But really, it's all about my couch. And my couch leggings.

    Well that game was certainly worth staying up for!! Gary Thorne said Pedro was aiming for his house in the Bronx :-)
  23. We grew up with no dishwasher. My first 2 apartments had no dishwasher. Until I moved into this house with Mr ebk, I always did dishes by hand. I love the dishwasher! When my dad finally bought his first and only condo, it had a dishwasher, but he rarely cooked and never used it. However, someone told him he should run it every so often so the belts didn't dry out. So my dad, with OCD, had a piece of paper taped to the wall and every 2 weeks, he religiously ran the dishwasher, then made a note on the paper on the wall. He also had boxes of new shirts in the closet, and when he had to take out a new one to use, he crossed out the number left in the box that he'd written on the outside and noted the new number. I take after him in a lot of ways, but fortunately, not in that way. He died 14 years ago and I do still miss him.

    I'm spared from having to watch the Os tonight because I'm at a concert. Thank goodness...
