Guy next to me on the computer is looking at that on Youtube. I am using my free headphones I got on the airplane to use with the ipad they loaned me. I need headphones EVERYWHERE, just like I need scotch tape, staplers, telephones and waste baskets everywhere. Have misplaced my special ones yet again. But I got TWO new pairs....on the way to Paris and on the way back. And they are nice and LONG....I don't have to check out the headphone extender cable like I had to with my regular earbuds. I had to give back the ipad but they didn't want to headphones back.
I like this cartoon in the New Yorker,since I am laboring in obscurity on this blog.
Book review: Murder, she wrote, a slaying in Savannah by Jessica Fletcher and Donald Bain. Actually, I have listened to this audiobook before, narrated by Cyntha Darlow. Amazingly, the narrator manages to almost SOUND like Angela Lansbury, who played Jessica Fletcher on TV. As a former cataloguing librarian, these kinds of books used to drive me crazy. Jessica Fletcher is a FICTIONAL character so how can she be writing a book? Jessica is called to Savannah upon the death of a good friend. The friend left one million dollars to a literacy foundation she ran with Jessica. The money is contingent upon the solving of a murder by Jessica. So she stays in the big house of the deceased, along with fortune-hunting boyfriends, ghost-chasing "tenants", servants who have been around for decades. She solves the murder with a clue that sailed completely by me.
