Friday

First and foremost I need to give a shout out to my good chum Phil Gratz from Bluffton, OH. Phil, welcome and I’m looking forward to spending some quality time in your hometown next week. Yeehaw … vacay!

Today Rachel Ries is the Noon Concert performer at the Old Courthouse Museum. I switched with Paavo so I could be over here today for her performance. I’m looking forward to seeing and hearing her. Her new CD is good driving-to-work-music for me because it calms me amongst the traffic.

Tomorrow I am heading to Freeman for some Schrag family Christmas and then on Sunday I think I will just hang out with my immediate family. Sue mentioned going to a movie. Any suggestions? All this Brokeback Mountain hullabaloo interests me. I also want to see Syriana and the Squid and the Whale. Are these even in theaters right now?
