Visiting Your Local Pharmacy

About 10 years ago - I used to travel to Texas on quite a regular basis - and since I was always taking the same flight in and out of Houston - I started to recognize the ground crew at the airport! Anyway... that isn't where this story is going... I remember driving in Dallas one time and seeing a billboard that said 'Don't know who the father is? We can help' and was advertising a paternity testing facility. I was reminded of this billboard recently as I was driving through San Bernardino on my way to Big Bear. This time the billboard advertised a paternity test that you could purchase at your local pharmacy. Who knew that finding out who the baby daddy is can be as easy as visiting your local pharmacy! Fascinating...

Really, A Repeat This Early In The Season

Goodness - it's been a month since I last posted - shame on me! So I had a fabulous dinner this evening with some wonderful friends (thanks, Jan and Holly - the crepe place is quite the find) and got back to my hotel right around 9pm. So I thought I would give NCIS Los Angeles another shot - decided that I would sit and truly give it my undivided attention. I'm not completely sold on it - I LOVE the original NCIS show - will sit and watch repeats all day long - but haven't been as excited about the spinoff. So I lay down on the bed - turn the TV on with anticipation only to find out that it is a repeat... really, a repeat this early in the season. If you are trying to get people to watch your brand new TV show - don't be showing repeats this early on! I think I'm done with the show - not even the NCIS name will save it for me... Think I'll go check out USA and see if there are any repeats of the original on tonight - if not I know they will have some tomorrow night!
