OT - Bad movies

Yeah, kinda sorta. I guess you could say he's still in transition. Interesting article about his Deanship recently in the New York Times. Have you seen the "Born to Be Wild" DVD? It profiles Stiefel, Jose Manuel Carreno, Angel Corella, and Vladimir Malakhov. Worth the trip, especially if you have male dancers around the house as I do ;-)

Best wishes, Ericka

The same could be said of the Scots, no?

Given my Irish (paternal) and Scots (maternal) relative - with out a question. But the Irish were more likely to be drunk first. LOL

In the past couple of years there have been several books of poetry published on the basis that they were well suited for memorization. It is neat to have a few good lines to recall (even if some days most of what I come up with is Lewis Carroll.)

Oh oysters dear, I deeply sympathize, with sobs and tears he sorted out those of the largest size.

I'm not sure how you got from fighting in the pub to bombing people, but I can assure you that without the English, you don't get the bombs.

Elizabeth

They just did it again the other day when the English are nearly gone and it seems utterly futile.

Anyway, I am lying in bed sick and can't be bothered to argue.

I bet you're not wearing green, either. A shame my orange shirt was in the dirty laundry...had to go for a faded red instead LOL

It's time you started to feel better; have you seen the Doctor, and is there anything other than bed rest that can help. If I were there, I would make you my magical (according to Jim) chicken soup.

Gill

LOL! My friend just emailed me that he is wearing his orange shirt today just to annoy people (he's of Scottish descent).

I wore a nice bright red top with hippy type embroidery and a Kiss Me I'm Not Irish sticker stuck on top of a Swedish flag button to my former parish's St. Patrick's party on Saturday. A friend of East Indian descent had a Trust Me, I'm Irish button that worked well for him.

But we did have a Kilkenney and a few Guinnesses, just to be in the spirit of the occasion.

We'll celebrate Norwegian Constitution Day on 17 May

But we will *NOT* be having any lutefisk

Nope, that's for sure, even the duvet is navy blue !

I made the effort to go yesterday, changed all the meds and I now have

2 puffers instead of one and have to get an xray when I feel up to it. I made myself get up (well out of bed) and vacuumed and saved my plants with some needed water. After that I was wiped and returned to bed.

I am going to force myself to go for that xray tomorrow. Always thinking of Bette Davis and "Old age is no place for sissies" lol

Proper thing too !

Here in Canada we celebrate Queen Victoria's birthday on May 21, believe it or not, I don't recall it even getting a mention in the UK lol

You would be welcome to my portion of the lutefisk, ugh

I'm wearing orange today, but really quite by accident!

Not of bit of Irish nor Scottish in me, Jinx

I did! It was on Oz SBS (international) TV late one night. Excellent! Wonderful! Angel Corella's got legs and leaps to die for! Of course, it's not that often we get to see anything remotely ballet on Oz TV, so it was a real treat. ;-D

I don't think we celebrated Victoria's birthday but I do remember celebrating Empire Day (24 May) at school in the late 1940s. It got changed to Commonwealth Day sometime in the 1950s.

AiEEEEEE! The world as we know it is ending! Sheena's too sick to argue!

And after she started it, even!

Elizabeth (LOL!)
