I REFUSE TO DRESS AS A GHOST...
...because it ridicules the dead. While I myself am not dead I have friends and relatives who are and do not wish to offend anyone.

HABEMUS CARDINALUM
DC Archbishop Donald Wuerl has been elevated to Cardinal. And McDonald's is going to start making McRibs again. Both noteworthy items.

I realize for most of my life I have looked on my high school/elementary school classmates as threats/competition, i.e. eat or be eaten. Maybe that's why I related to my beloved Pippin so well.

WEEK 42
WEEK SEVEN
Weather started out cold and nasty but improved, Dow down but other indexes up, gas prices up, too. The Chilean miners are out about two months ahead of schedule, so maybe other things will improve faster than expected.
A guy was killed on Ninth Street – evidently suffered trauma. That’s what the diagnoses on my doctor’s bill says: “trauma.” I am not hurting as much physically, but unable to shake this cold I caught last month.

WEEK SIX
Dow closed at over 11,000 for the first time since May. Weather started out cold but improved. Gas prices are up (boo) but there's a 30-cent difference between NW and NE DC.
I am trying to keep it together. D has a cold, which he said he got from his daughter. Hope the rest of us don't get it.

DAY 35
Cops everywhere, but to what avail?
A couple hours ago a guy had a seizure at Starbucks on Columbia Rd.
1) No cop in the usual place in front of Madame's Organ
2) "Community Police" office next to the Suntrust unoccupied.
3) Found an illegally parked cop car in front of the Bank of America. Found the officer inside making a deposit.
Where are emergency personnel when you need them?
Earlier this morning a woman was hit by a car and killed on Connecticut Avenue. Not sure how close I was at the time. Evidently no cops around then, either:

TASTE OF BETHESDA
Went to Taste of Bethesda yesterday.
Two of my favourites were Morton's and Ruth's Chris, although the bread on which they served their sliders overpowered the meat. Delhi Dhaba's butter chicken was good, but why did all the Indian restaurants serve virtually the same thing? One can only eat so many samosas in one day. Just Cakes Cupcakes were good, as were Ben and Jerry's and Gifford's ice cream. One cookie place (I forget which one) made reasonably good, if a little doughy "almond rounds."
The big disappointment was the Burger Joint's sliders. I LOVED the last burger I had there, however, the sliders were luke warm, served on cold bread, which minimized the flavour. We know you can do better!

WEEK FIVE
Market ended up, weather ranging from horrific to fairy-tale-like, gas prices appear to be up in Virginia, but ok in DC.
Got a call from my attorney -- at least will be having some closure.

THE GOLDEN COMPASS
Used my Blockbuster Rewards to rent “The Golden Compass,” for which the Catholic League called a boycott. The author of the book apparently wanted to “kill G-d,” impossible to do, and enough people took him seriously. Never mind there are references to tolerance, “free inquiry,” truth, some substance called “dust” and to prophecies. IMO no worse than the Harry Potter books, contested by the Episcopal pictures, more compelling than “the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe,” and lots of pretty pictures to boot.
