Rant:
CRAP YELLOW JOURNALISM 'stories' make the newspapers and television news with frightening frequency. Almost nothing positive is reported on, anymore.
Rave:
My husband has less than six months to go for his bachelor's degree, YAY! (He's almost 40, and had almost decided he was too old to go back to school. I am very proud of him!)

Rave: My sympathy for those of you in the chill-so here's a little sunshine story for you all:
Played 'hooky' yesterday and trekked out to Pt.Reyes (Natn'l Seashore in Marin County,CA) to check out whales migrating from Alaska to Baja and to enjoy 55 degree weather and SUN! The lighthouse stairs were open, so we walked down the 300 steps (noting the warning at the top that the return trip was akin to ascending stairs to the top of a 30 story bldg.-I have no idea how they figured that out!) The park ranger let us into the actual lighthouse and gave as a terrific talk about the 130 yr.old, all original parts,working Fresnel lense-just like being
in a giant prism with rainbows! Spent about 45 mins. enjoying the views and
the multitude of sea lions playing in the water below. Breathtaking!
Rant: The return trip UP those 306
steps (they are numbered) was, well...
BREATH TAKING!

Rant: razzledazzle's hookie story--I am jealous! I'll take 55 deg. any day.
Rant: Snowing 2" tonight, another 5" predicted for Sunday.
Rant: The Prada bag I won on Ebay isn't here yet--and no, I will have no idea if it is authentic or not--but it does come with a card that says it is, that's all I care
Rave: Having a new XM Radio unit installed tomorrow
Rave: Unit takes several hours to install, which means shopping and lunching while waiting
Rave: The good news about snow on Sunday is a possible 2 hour delay on Monday
Rave: CNBC replayed the episode of The Apprentice at 9:00PM that I missed last week..that's almost worth two raves
Rave: I think I have more Raves than Rants this week

cold here in NYC. Rave: Go home, sit in front of the fire with a few good friends and a few good bottles of Barolo.
