This Night Owl Blog has given so much!
It is a fun place, we don't bash and we have fun being "tedious"!
We offer advice, give love, lots of free food and an open forum which can be about anything that is important, thought provoking or just plain silly.
And sometimes we just March (some to different drummers, but all together). :)
It is not about a single person, it is about all the people on any given day blended together.....Goldie!
TINA: I don't see a vid..just a black screen.. :( but I bet it's a good one! :)
DIANNE: I'm so sorry you have to go through this again. I wish I had a magic 'no more dental problems' wand that I could wave over you so this would never happen again.
BEAR: I watch some of these drug commercials and wonder who would take this stuff..the side effects are worse than the original problem!
It's going to be a really nice weekend..any plans to visit Palm Springs in the near future?
Mr Z had to take in the car..there's a rattle here and a hum there that he has to have checked out..what a fun vacation..lol..It really is nice having him home though.
I have seen this woman on a lot of shows and she is one of the VERY few that does look natural...NOW...but during her continuous work I have seen her look like a Barbie doll....on that show her sisters were crying....she looked plastic....and although at this time she looks great...thats not to say that a year from now that she still will if she doesn't stop.....and stopping doesn't seem to be on her "to-do" list....and it will eventually backfire on her.
During Jocelyn Wildensteins transformation to freak...there were times when she was still pretty and could have stopped...but she didn't....and now she has to live with that monstrous face....I feel very sad for her....
Joan Rivers is another example of taking things to far...Joan can be made up and can photograph well...but there is no denying that her looks are strange.
No place on earth is plastic surgery gone bad more prevalent that L.A., Beverly Hills....you can walk around that mall on Rodeo and see face after face after face that bear the signs...fat lips...high cheekbones and skin stretched to its limits....
However... idiosyncratic behavior abounds...always has...we just hear and see more of it these days with shows like Oprah...and the fact that we have the ability to carry the world wide web in our pockets..
There are hoarders...people who are afraid to change their 40 year old hair-dos...all kinds of quirks...shopaholics...people addicted to drugs...many many extremists today and I shant criticize things because I have my own obsessions...we all do...
Just today I read that the fabulous Helen Lawson is in Palm Beach and is attending a "Charity Skin Pull" to help raise money for the face lifts of the locals cleaning ladies and other domestic staff...
I was checking obits this morning...as one does...and saw this....
Just some possible names I wanted to share in case you know someone who is having a baby or adopting...

Iceland's penis museum finally gets human specimen
LONDON — In life, Pall Arason was an attention-seeker. In death, the 95-year-old Icelander's pickled penis will be the main attraction at one of the world's most bizarre museums. Sigurdur Hjartarson, who runs the Phallological Museum in the tiny Icelandic fishing town of Husavik, says Arason's organ will help complete his extensive collection of whale, seal, bear, and other mammalian members. The museum has been open since 1997 but Hjartarson has long waited for a human specimen to round out his display. Hjartarson says that Arason, a friend, agreed to help by having his penis donated after his death. The medical director of Akureyri Hospital said Tuesday that the operation was carried out in January under the supervision of a doctor at a local morgue.
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
TINA: I can't see video either. It is showing the one from yesterday with the title of todays. Oh well, I'm guessing it is funny and informative!
Picked up my GD to keep for the next couple of days. We are going to go and see that girl surfer movie tomorrow with Carrie Underwood and probably end up at her favorite....Olive Garden. I am feeling very not pain free in my mouth tonight. I was at the dentist for 2 hours and ten (yes 10) shots later.....awful!!
ZONA: We are having the ham for dinner tonight....before it expires. I wish you had that wand too.
DEEDEE: I am a lot of those names on your list. I could about make a sentence with them.
TINA: Is the daughter driving today? Did you let her experience snow yet? I remember when your son was first trying it.
BEAR: Quit working so late. You need your sleep to stay well!
MARY: I sure am glad you are feeling better today. Guess that rest helped over the weekend (see BEAR) and even nice weather too!!!
ITEACH: Good idea of saving the money for a rainy day. Every day feels rainy and makes me want to spend and it's not even raining!
LYNN: How are you doing since that bad fall the other day? Are you able to get around okay?
seriously di? I just played the vid again~ hmmmmmm~ And no.....she didn't drive today.....I didn't go pick them up....the hubby did....and he's not about to let her drive the van~ We'll allow her to give us a heart attack in the taurus, but no other car~ ijs~ and btw.....Mary is well cuz i told her what to take! Humpht~
Nice vid. I've seen that woman. She looks great for 55, great for having so many surgeries.
You can paint a rat-trap car a pretty color, bang the dents out and polish the chrome. But when push comes to shove, it's a piece of shit under the hood.
TINA!! Wow...I couldn't imagine going thru that kind of pain for beauty. I got sick of just dying my hair, so I totally own my grey. I say work it!!! And I've earned every single wrinkle. Most are from laughing....and there's no shame in that!!
Zona: Next weekend! I'm flying down on Saturday and staying until Tuesday morning!
Dianne: I will take your advice and go to bed early tonight without having gone back into work tonight!
And... Dee Dee... OMG, why did you decide to post that excerpt tonight? I just got back from dinner and reading this week's Time cover story. It. Absolutely. Blew. Me. Away.
Please, calling all owls, read it! You won't regret the time! Here's the link to it...
I am getting 2 refunds this month and neither is from the IRS! Thanks to Tina, I will be getting over $700 back from my airline ticket to Miami. She had to wade through a mess between the ticket agent and me. I don't know how but she did!! Tina , you rock!!!
Last week I got one of those "money recovery" letters from a business I used to have dealings with. All I had to do was confirm my address and sign the release form and they will be releasing funds owed me hooray!! Mr Mary came home from the Casino tonite with an extra $900 so all is well today :).
Whabby, who on earth has the time to read the foot long list of warnings in teeny tiny letters?
Diane, I am soooo hurting for you!! I have never heard of anyone having so much dental trouble in such a short time!!
Zona, I am glad you are enjoying Mr Z ;-)
ITEACH, AMEN to that! Well, I did have that tummy tuck, but my face is still old & wrinkled lol!!
Tina Good evening. Congrats on being the prettiest.....again. Don't you get tired of being so beautiful? And you didn't even have to spend all that money and go through all that pain like the lady in the vid. I wonder if she's in a relationship or if there is no room for any other person as she is so focused on herself.
I guess I've taken up enough space here. I had my echocardiogram today and probably won't hear results from my doctor for about a week, however, the technician volunteered that my heart is good. Yay!
Buenos Dias!~

And you didn't even have to spend all that money and go through all that pain like the lady in the vid. I wonder if she's in a relationship or if there is no room for any other person as she is so focused on herself.
ReplyDeleteDianne Well, crap! Why are you back in the dentist's chair again? This is crazy! What's going on with you?
ReplyDeleteBear I did read it. Very interesting.
ReplyDeleteLynnD I take it that was a rhetorical question. LOL
ReplyDeleteZona I hope you and Mr.Z have some fun together during his time off. A few date nights would be nice, huh?
ReplyDeleteDeeDee Thank you for posting that. I enjoyed reacquainting myself with Lincoln's eloquent words.
ReplyDeleteDeeDee2 I really didn't need to know about the penis museaum. LOL
