Anyone out there?

Obviously nobody is reading the best thing ever! *G* So what else are you doing to entertain yourself? TV got you hooked? With DVRs we never again have to watch something we don't want to. They are a WONDERFUL invention. No commercials! Love it!

Hope everyone is having fun - whatever you're doing.

Remember that old show about the robot---can't remember his name - Johnny something---I need IMPUT!

Let me know how you are.

[> Hey Beaty, I'm just enjoying a snowy long weekend here in the Pacific Northwest. I did the crock pot thing yesterday, I am reading an Anne Gracie book on my I pod. We went up to the pass and went x country skiing this morning. It was snowing here but it was beautiful sunshine on the pass. Now just hanging out with a fire going, surfing the web and looking forward to one more day of the weekend. Monday's a holiday for us federal worker types and I'll take every three day weekend they give me. How the weather in your neck of the woods? Are you getting the cold, do you have any snow? -- debbie O, Sunday, January 15, 06:51:40pm

[> [> Hey Debbie! I sounds like a wonderful relaxing weekend for you. I get one day off - enjoy the others for me! Our weather has been unseasonably dry and warm. That's supposed to stop this week. DH just told be to be expecting a colder night than we're used to. Enjoy! -- Beaty, Sunday, January 15, 08:04:26pm

Got hooked into Spencer Quinn's mystery series (4 books in all, so far) - the Chet and Bernie books. Chet tells the stories for his doggy viewpoint (he's an almost-was K-9 dog who failed the final test, thanks to a cat and some other things he can't quite recall). Bernie Little is Chet's human partner, a West Pointer wounded in "a desert war" and an ex-cop. The mysteries are intriguing - missing persons, murder, elephant-napping. The viewpoint is quirky, being from Chet's brain - the thought processes are pretty much what one would expect from a canine... All he really wants is to make Bernie happy by grabbing a perp by the pants leg. His attention span is a bit short -squirrel!- but somehow, he earns his kibble and Slim Jims and helps to solve the case at hand. And, no, Chet does not speak human talk; but he understands a lot of it. I've gone through three and a half of them in a week. The first one is "Dog On It", the second is "Thereby Hangs A Tale". -- Merry, Sunday, January 15, 06:57:47pm

[> [> [> Hope you enjoy them! It's amazing, sometimes, what comes across the desk at the store, or that I find in BookPage, Publishers' Weekly, or Library Journal. Not to mention RT, of course... You read these little one-paragraph reviews, and something sounds intriguing, and the next thing you know, your husband is grumbling about hauling an entire series home from his job at the library. *G* -- Merry, Monday, January 16, 08:56:02am

[> [> [> [> The fourth book was really terrific. He did sort of re-use a theme, but a really god read, nonetheless. -- Merry, Saturday, January 21, 12:21:56pm

[> Well, I'm having a 3 day weekend too and for once did NOT spend the whole thing cleaning and doing chores. I'm still spending time with Roarke (Indulgence in Death) and am almost finished. We had my Aunt over for our Christmas celebration on Saturday and played cards and ate. Saturday night we had company and movie night (The Loser's - love that movie!) and we ate then too. Sunday was Church, shopping and out to dinner with the hubby....and then the Golden Globes which I enjoyed, I thought the host was much better this year and not as cruel (and there were TOO many mermaid dresses last night! LOL) Today is car maintenance, laundry and cleaning out 200 emails. Getting ready tomorrow for the new season of JUSTIFIED to start on FX Network, great show! -- Robin, Monday, January 16, 09:05:20am

[> I'm really enjoying "Once Upon a Time" on Sunday nights. A super evil queen, plucky heroine, uber-cute kid. It's really good. Also reading the latest Kelley Armstrong, "Spellbound." I'm enjoying the snow here in Seattle because it means I don't have to go anywhere, especially since today is a holiday. Except for some errands today. There are ALWAYS errands. Hope everyone is doing well. -- maggie, Monday, January 16, 10:47:24am

[> Short Circuit had a robot named Johnny 5, that was the name he gave himself once he got away from the establishment.*G* Then there was Lost in space but the robot there wasn't named Johnny. -- , Sunday, January 22, 10:00:50pm
