Leonard Nemoy for Aleve:


Leonard is preparing for a Star Trek convention, but is on the phone with his agent insisting he needs to cancel because of the arthritis pain in his hand. His agent suggests he take some Aleve. He does, and, sure enough, his pain dissapates; and, much to the delight of the Trekkies, he's able to give the Vulcan peace sign.

MacGyver for MasterCard:


You know the MasterCard commercials. Now they've made a beautiful one with our beloved Richard Dean Anderson as MacGyver. (Helen, have you seen this?) I can't even do it justice in description, so you've just got to watch it!



I know there's at least one more commercial I meant to include here, but my sieve of a brain can't recall it right now. I'll update it later.

EDIT:

Ah, yes...how could I forget the LOTR commercial for TBS?


Play it here. It's the last line that gets me.

We are NOT well people.

Conversations between the boy and me tonight:


At the school's art show, looking at 'self-portraits' of students in a display titled "When I'm 100 Years Old":

Boy: If I was doing that, know what I'd draw?

Me: What?

Boy: A gravestone!





Later, in the car, the boy said something witty -- which I can't recall right now, but it has something to do with languages. I responded with:

Me: Touché!

Boy: Is that French?

Me: yes

Boy: What's it mean? I should know what it means, since I'm part French.

Me: Just because you've got the blood in you, doesn't mean you instinctively know the language!

Boy: Au contraire!


(That one frightened me a bit. He's too clever.)

Ooh! And also...

my Mommy brought me soup.

Oh, and also...

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!

Boiled Dinner:

Wake up early. Plug in crockpot.
Realize that you forgot to buy pototoes. Swear for a few moments.
Put in crockpot: peeled and cubed turnip, baby carrots, cut up cabbage, sliced onion, corned beef. Add water. Cook on low all day. Buy canned new potatoes after work. Open, drain, and add to crock pot.

Eat with soda bread.


MMMMMmmmmmm.....




Next day:

Chop up everything, fry in cast iron pan in butter, turning until all browned
and crispy-edged. Push all the hash to one side of the pan, and fry a couple
of eggs with it.

Serve with toast and coffee.


MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
MMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
mmmmmmmmmm.......
