Things that used to be but aren’t anymore.
1- Computers freezing for some reason or other. It must have been a good decade since any of my computers froze.
2- Going to the video club to pick up a DVD (or a cassette!)
3- Uploading music to an iPod.
4- Going to Toys R us for my kids’ Christmas presents.
5- Looking at the Sears Christmas catalog.
6- Anything having to do with Sears, actually.
7- Burning music CDs.
8- Caring about continuity in a current comic-book series.

Best James Bond Actors
1) Sean Connery 2) Roger Moore 3) Timothy Dalton 4) George Lazenby 5) Pierce Brosnan 6) Barry Nelson 7) Daniel Craig
I was told and was convinced that Timothy Dalton was better suited for James Bond over George and Pierce because of his nature of his acting and almost got Roger Moore booted out of 2nd place. But, Roger Moore had longevity and I felt he is worthy to be in 2nd place and I might someday move up George Lazenby; but I might switch George with Pierce. I need to watch George only film with Diana Rigg and I just might help him to hold his place in 4th. 2nd to 5th place could change in a year ...

In honor of Shakespeare's birthday (thanks Prince Hal) I present my current listing for my favorite readings of Shakespeare Plays (as it must of course constantly change with fresh re-readings). 1. Othello. My first ever Shakespeare reading in high school. Started me down the path. 2. Much Ado About Nothing. Pure romantic fun and frolic. 3. Macbeth. Ambition, tragedy and politics. The eternal dance of the damned indeed! Need I say more? 4. The Winter's Tale. Romance, comedy, drama and a favorite read of my late love's reads. 5. King Lear. Classic tragedy and can hit all the dark notes, foibles and flaws of life and family for me. Any takers on suggesting your favorite choices?
