It was sorta like me giving English lessons. It's a no jive. He is one funny man but a show about relationship type advice? Are they Joking?
Harvey is all over the TV and not for NOTHING.

I know K is going to say there is NOTHING I like but I am kind of a geek so my brain is wired a little differently (sometimes it even works )

I like actors getting involved in stuff. They meet a lot of people and usually are very empathetic and they are often very connected in some ways.

Sylvester Stallone snuck into the Red Lion Inn in Rohnert Park, CA while they were shooting Stop! Or My Mother Will Shoot. He dressed as a nun even though I remember no press nor fans around that hotel which was 300 feet or less out our backdoor. Movie stars have to go through a lot of unwanted things like stalkers, idiotic fans, bad press and the like.

I was still in Minneapolis while they were filming this movie and when Stallone was around Rohnert Park so I never got a glimpse of him. It is not like I would watch the hotel with binoculars to see whom I could see. I just walked our fat cocker spaniel around there. Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot clip (1992) - YouTube
Thanks for that link Tal, very interesting to me. I spent 10 day in Vegas, 5 of those with our kids and their wives, I had the time of my life. We did it all. The only scary part was the taxi rides, holy crow, it wasn't good so for a few bucks more we would ask for a small limo, that didn't work so we ended up renting a car.

I did get to see Pawn Stars Store but none of the people you see on TV. The place was a dump. The only nice place inside the store is one section where they shoot most of the scenes.

We were having such a ball in the Casinos that going to See Danny at Counting Cars and the Aquarium show called Tanked slipped my mind. No matter if it was room service or a Restaurant that our daughter in law lined up a year in advance the Meals were about $200. It didn't matter though as it was all their money. Yours truly was on fire. The Venetian and where we stayed at the Cosmopolitan took a real beating from me, I couldn't lose. I also don't wanna go back because I never want to ruin that memory cause they r NUTTIN, NOTHING but gonna take their Money back!

We stayed in the room the last day to recover from being awake for so long. We actually went home with a bundle and they paid for the entire 10-day vacation. All the credit for coming home with some dough goes to my lovely Valentine.

This time of year I read 4 or 5 books a week. NOTHING better than having Kindle Unlimited. $10 a month and a nearly unlimited amount of reading material.

I NOTHING but read all day but the only book I ever read that I can mention was The Catcher in The Rye. 45 Years ago. I start a whole lotta books but never finish them. If I told you the second book I may start a little controversy. It's an easy one to guess but I don't wanna stir up anyone. So guess but keep it to yourself, Deal?

We have an Extreme Emergency here Now. Nobody driving illegally on the golf course it's even worserer. My Keurig is acting up for the tenth time. Going to DD'S. Repairs later.

I think there is NOTHING like real books and I have an unlimited amount of them. I have many friends who read the same kind of books as I do and exchange them and fund raisers like Operation Shoebox sell them for pocket change and the library is right down the street.

Real books are NOTHING but obsolete.. lol

Taking 5 books on vacation is unneeded weight and room taken up in the suitcase. With the Kindle I can read in the dark. My office no longer fills up with books I've read. I no longer need to guess if I've read a book already. If by chance I download a book I've already read I just send it back. No trees were harmed in the making of a Kindle book.. Don't have to leave the house to get a book. Have millions of titles at my finger tips..

It took me a long time to give up my printed books but once I did I've never looked back.

Mrs. K is about 50/50. They have a book shelf at the gym she goes to and she'll do some swapping there.. When traveling she takes her Kindle.

Time to go remove what's left of the snow/ice/slush. It's pretty chunky out there now after the rain/snow/freeze/rain/snow mix we've had over the past couple of days. I know you're NOTHING but jealous.. lol

I do feel sorry for some of them but some of them are NOTHING but BONEHEADS. The poor people who drive for a living and have to deal with the regular Citizens on the road are the ones I really feel sorry for. The truck drivers who are dead dog tired and have to deal with that weather, it ain't pretty.

I don't miss it at all. We had a 2003 Hummer and could go anywhere at any time as long as we could gain entry to the vehicle. We helped get Doctors to work and other Professionals who were stranded and even had a pass to legally do so. It was all at my own risk but it was fun to do. Better than being stuck in the house for days. I also delivered Dunkin Donuts to the guys who were plowing for the township. Great Memory but don't wanna relive it.

I stay out of the city as much as possible. NOTHING good comes out of going there. I'll just stay fat, dumb and happy out here in the country..

I think you know where just NOTHING but froze over. We got our property tax bill today and it went down $700 from last year. I'm worried that we'll get a letter in a couple of weeks telling us that it's a mistake.. lol
