(Note: The following is actually sent by Mr. H and dutifully published by 'The Husband' as per instructions from Kathy.)Well
hello there! Guest Blogger, Mr. H. checking in to the Cake Eater!!!!
Why did Kathleen give me such a great honor? I have been asking myself
the same question. Hmmm. I think she was desperate! I also believe she
didn̢۪t think I had anything to do here at work. Well, to introduce
myself as quickly as possible – 1. I live just two blocks from the
Cake Eater Apartment (They have very good taste – furnishings, food,
etc – It’s always an honor to grace them with my presence!)
2. I have known Kathleen for quite a few years now (Most of the time I
can hear her ranting away while I read)
3. I am 3 months older than her (something she likes to remind me of
– and her day is coming)
4. She seems to think I have something to say!
(Note – Although I do live two blocks from the Apartment, I do not
however, live in the same suburb – my mailing address says
Minneapolis – something I am very, very clear about)
Kathleen – I hope your having a lovely time on the beach!
Okay – I figured I would start with one of those “cute” little
stories that make me giggle
Story here
Please note I DO NOT WANT ONE OF THESE, but it made me laugh. What I
really want to know is how does one become a professional “Mushroom
Hunter”. I will assume that is a retirement job.
I repeat – NO CALENDAR FOR MR. H.! Remember my motto: Paybacks are a
b$%&# You do not want to know what kind of retaliatory measures I
am capable of. I spent some time this weekend with my Aunt. She lives
in a small town in Central Minnesota, about 25 minutes from St. Cloud,
where yours truly spent five agonizing years of his life studying. We
decided to venture to that lovely growing community to do our best to
help the economy. (Retail Therapy!) I myself only spent a fraction of
what she did, but it still felt good. This CD was playing as we were
driving from store to store, and resulted in a funny little comment. Aunt - “Is this opera?”
Mr. H. “Kind of” with a nod
Aunt – “You are so cultured” To which I almost
went in the ditch laughing so hard. Some purists would disagree on its
“classical” scope, but most people who “Hate” opera, have
tended to be interested. I adore Sarah and have loved all of her
previous releases, but this one is AMAZING. So go buy it now, and you
can be cultured as well. (It̢۪s $9 less than when I bought it two
months ago)

Saturday night wound up being movie night. A couple flicks.

About Schmidt
Fun movie, a little slow at parts, but fun anyway. You gotta love Jack!
The hot tub scene killed me ~ it̢۪s worth the rental for that scene
with Kathy Bates alone!

The Hunted
There were parts of this moving that I just didn̢۪t get? It was
interesting, but just a little too much “gore” maybe. There were a
couple of scenes that just went a little too long. If you̢۪re into the
whole knife-fighting thing, you might like it. I̢۪m not really into
the whole military movie thing either, so that might have given me the
bad taste. Tommy Lee Jones is incredible in anything thoughâ€Â¦
Here̢۪s an interesting tid-bit. You̢۪ll notice I̢۪m not picking on
the Vatican, I figured I would give the Episcopal̢۪s a little time.
*(Besides, Kathleen does a good job with them!) I think they are smart
in being progressive, as far as religions go they are, it̢۪s sad that
10-15 years behind corporate America is considered progressive in
religion. I will leave you with my “quote of the week” I think it
kind of sums up religion and politics – "I think Johnnie Byrd would switch to be a Hare Krishna if he thought it would help him get elected U.S. Senator." Florida Democratic Party Chairman Scott Maddox.
