So much up in the air….

Monday, January 4th, 2010

As the year begins. What will happen with the pod?  Where will Stench and I end up working?  And who knows what else!?!?!

The kids and I had a very nice break, over the last 9 days we: went to Magic Mountain (The kids love the coasters, but hate the height limits), visited the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach (Had front row seats for the shark feeding), took Bowling Girl bowling a couple times (Bing is able to bowl totally on his own now), stopped by the L.A. Zoo (They still had all the Christmas stuff going on) and went to view the Rose Parade Floats (Way too much line waiting for my liking, but the kids loved seeing the floats in person).  It was a good time.

I been catching up on my prime time television, now that I have 8-10p free.  I am enjoying scrubs and that Ted show that follows it, but I still can’t figure out why those N.C.I.S. shows are so popular?

You’re a perv, not an entertainer!  I wish I could have seen this.  Mobile meth lab.  Baby shield. Squirrels are taking over!  No pants on the subway.  Bad news for the 405.  For growing relationships.

Rock On, Jack

This just in from Linda:

“According to my daughter Michelle: a woman that works at the Venetian with Mic, 32 units of her building burned right before Christmas, and those families lost everything. The co-workers kids’ gave their toys to some of the kids that lost everything.
There is now a place for them to stay, but it needs cleaning and I’m not sure if painting is also needed. These families will be starting from scratch. So I will be making a Vegas run with donations from friends and family to take up there.
I would like to leave tomorrow, but that will depend on how much stuff I am taking and picking everything up.
Thank you Jack,
Sincerely,
Linda Pimentel

3. I was wondering if you could maybe put a link to a friend of mine who is a musician on your blog. www.myspace.com/richardburrsongs He’s a great guy! I work with him and he’s really trying to get his music career going more and he deserves all the love and support in the world. Just thought you could help boost his myspace hits! Thanks so much!
And finally, remember the show I was on in San Diego?  Well, a petition as been started to bring it back to SD, it would be great if you would sign it for the guys!!! http://www.petitiononline.com/TKinSD/petition.html
