Avocados ~ Shania & Horse ~ Lisa ~ Lasorda Rips ~ Laughlin Smilebox #2 ~ Icky Letterman is Gone


Good 54º cloudy (what else is new!) morning.
Got an email yesterday from Mike Nelson (LASD ret) and the told me the following:
Ever wonder how restaurants always have ripe avocados? Put the unripe avocado in microwave for 45 seconds, let sit for six hours, it will be ripe, firm and tasty.
Ok, if you have a green avocado, try this and let me know if it works!!!
This video put a big smile on my face... Pat Reardon told me about it... Shania Twain sings and dances with her horse on stage in Vegas.... what a beauty that horse is!!!

Today is a special lady's birthday... Lisa Short ... she is the sister of my pal Olga Duran.... (Jimmy...LASD Sgt) ..... HAPPY BIRTHDAY LISA!!!!

Now, this video is funny. (Bad language...not for kids) Tommy Lasorda goes ballistic over a comment that he told his pitcher to 'bean' a batter! Whodda thought Tommy would say what he does! WOW. (Thanks for this Ike, made me laugh!!!)

I like this... If we don't do this for ourselves, nobody else will!

Dinner was popcorn! Not in the mood to cook.
Here is Smilebox #2 from my trip to Laughlin...

Now if we could only get Johnny (RIP) or Jay back!
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Hump Day. Ciao.

Sue,

Love loved your Laughlin Smile Box. I have never seen any photos from that event before so now I have a feel for what it's like. I had a reservation once to go with John but had to cancel. Some day! Oh yes, loved the photo of you and my John!

I am so shocked at Tommy Lasorda's language on tha video. I guess good Republicans cuss too but he was really over the top there.

Also loved the video of Shania Twain and her horse. I reposted it on my boarding school page.

Thanks!

XO Trisha
