Obama Speaks

Some quotes from the inauguration and comments from Time Magazine, February 2, 2009

Regarding the fallacy of the wonders of free enterprise:

"This crisis has reminded us that without a watchful eye, the market can spin out of control. The nation cannot prosper when it favors only the prosperous." (Take that, Dick Cheney, who exited the scene in a wheelchair, looking grim, as if he were about to foreclose on someone.)

Regarding the wisdom of earlier generations:

"They understood that our power alone cannot protect us, nor does it entitle us to do as we please."

And he denounced the "false...choice between our safety and our ideals."

I LOVE this story!

Vacation, January 4-11, 2009

Here is a link to my Picasa Page with pics from my cruise on Holland America's MS Westerdam last week with my friend Judy. I'll add more when I get her pics.

We sailed from Ft. Lauderdale to Half Moon Cay to Grand Turk to Grand Cayman to Cozumel and back to Ft. Lauderdale.

In Cozumel, we decided to spring for the Dolphin Swin and Ride encounter at Dolphinaris. It was amazing, as you can see from the photos above.

Vacation - Day 1

Hunter Parish in "Spring Awakening"

I love this show-- this was my 3rd time seeing it. I was eager to see
Hunter (from "Weeds" on Showtime) in the lead. He was INCREDIBLY GRACIOUS at the stage door (always a plus in my book). He was amused when we asked him to sign this pic from the Internet using the 'Scribble' App on my iPhone.

Another AMAZING movie!

I absolutely loved The Reader. It is erotic, moving, disturbing, touching. I appreciate movies that make me literally feel the emotion welling up inside me.

Kate Winslet is one of my top-5 favorite actresses. It's her turn!

Merry Christmas

I received this link and thought it was quite cute... I couldn't help but smile, even in my "bah-humbug" state of mind this year. I definitely have not been in my "happy place," but I have a nice relaxing vacation coming up, and I plan to take myself away and give myself a good attitude adjustment.

B-R-I-L-L-I-A-N-T Movie!

"Slumdog Millionaire"

Please go see this movie!

Such a creative and compelling story about destiny and overcoming the odds to build a life for yourself when the world seems to be stacking the cards against you!

Happy Holidays

This is the Christmas card I got from my friend RonDeena. Best card ever!

This is the free sticker I got from MoveOn.org.

Liza's at the Palace

What a treat to see a living legend! Everything I have ever heard about Liza (and her mother) and her ability to absolutely give herself to an audience was so true! I was mezmerized from the first entrance, and through MULTIPLE standing ovations throughout the show! Brilliant!

Candace Bergen, Lea Delaria, and John McDaniel were the celebrities I saw up close in the audience. I'm sure there were more.
