Thanksgiving Night
I spent several hours addressing Christmas cards. Still have more to address. Would you like me to mail you one too? Be glad to add you to the list! Just go to my profile page and find the email address, then contact me with your name and mailing address. It would be my pleasure to send you a card this year.
Thank you, sweet Jesus, for mason jars, wild flowers, hot tea, golden fields, falling leaves, early morning coffee, late night fires, wooden porches, good friends, time well spent, unconditional love, and mostly for Your grace. I love you. Amen.
Country Band Gloriana shares their thoughts on Thanksgiving 2009
Happy Thanksgiving 2009. We all have many blessings, and it is appropriate on this holiday to not only remember your many blessings but to give thanks to God from whom all blessings flow.
Thanksgiving Day TV Special: "Kaleidoscope - skating, song and survivorship"
Olivia Newton-John on Thanksgiving Day TV Special: “Kaleidoscope - skating, song and survivorship”
“Kaleidoscope” will air nationally on FOX on Thanksgiving Day (Nov. 26) 2009 from 4:00-5:30 p.m. (EST), immediately following the FOX Thanksgiving Day football telecast.
On “Kaleidoscope” Olivia will debut her new song, “Hope Is Always Here,” co-written and produced by 15 time Grammy Award winner David Foster.
“Hope Is Always Here” was inspired by lyrics written by children involved with Purple Songs Can Fly - a unique project that enables kids with cancer to work with professional composers to write and record their own music. “Hope Is Always Here” is uplifting and perfect for the holiday season.
OK You West Coast Folks - buy tickets for this event!
The Million Dollar Revival a benefit for Fran Drescher’s Cancer Schmancer Movement. The Million Dollar Revival will be a vaudevillian evening true to the era of old-time variety shows, a Los Angeles style melting pot of live music and comedy, an unholy marriage of acts one would never imagine gracing the same stage. This one of a kind event held December 13th 2009 at the historic Million Dollar Theatre will raise funding for low income, uninsured women of Los Angeles to receive free women’s cancer screening tests (as well as free follow-up care) right in their own neighborhoods.
One of the performers is my favorite Olivia Newton-John!
A Muppets version of Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody? You had me at Gonzo and the chickens. This is one of the first 1080p YouTube clips, weighing 107MB compared to the 72MB 720p. Does the resolution make any difference? You bet.
OK, so I was a huge fan of The Muppet Show. This Muppets Version of the Queen song had me laughing and tears in the eyes. Excellent!

BIRTHDAY REMINDER
This week we celebrate a special birthday!
Monica Lewinsky turned 35.
Can you believe it?
It seems like only yesterday she was crawling
around the White House on her hands and knees,
and putting everything in her mouth.
They grow up so fast, don’t they?
happy birthday, valeriem!
I am grateful.
..that I have a place to rest my head, clothes to wear, and a car to drive. I want for nothing. Yet so many times, I get upset because I can’t buy things I want. I am ashamed to even admit that.
This day in history
