I pulled out some of my books by Jack Paar. I really liked him, yet was too young to remember, or even see the show when it aired, but have seen tapes. His books might have his personality captured. There are many funny, sweet and witty comments in his words.

I have yet to see that last 'Rings', but I see that it has pulled in 11 Oscar Nominations. I find myself watching more older films than any new ones. I go through phases.

There is a Spanish lady that I've become friendly with who cleans houses and she carries her new born baby as she works. Her friend is an older lady who is a psychic and the other day she told me a woman named Courtney would come into my life. I was thinking immediately that she was referring to singer Courtney Love, but later that day I found out a gal I've known as a passing regular on the streets where I hang out is named Courtney. I thought that was strange. Rarely does that name come up in my world.

Isn't it really odd that the Golden Globes set a record for NBC ratings? I know people that hate Award shows, yet watched this one...

I mean, who the Hell is the Foreign Press and why should we care? Aren't they the ones that hate the President and write bad things about America?

Yet their opinions on "Lost in Translation" is valid?

Sofia Coppola makes history with Oscar by being the first American Woman nominated as Best Director.

One day you'll be able to tell your kids you lived through this.
