So, today instead of talking a lot about the show…I’m going to take a vacation day.  Like Gayle did on Monday and Tuesday.  I didn’t know — did you?  I’ll post reflections only…less of a recap.  And then….for the rest of the day, well, I’ll take a vacation day…or two…  

• About California.  Well, I’m glad you made it home.  I hate the “have to rush to the airport thing” but we appreciate you coming back. 
• About the necklace.  It’s good from far away.  Close up – not so much. 
• About Egypt – Thank you to all journalists who are risking your lives to bring us the news happening around the world.  You are rock stars. 
• About Oprah, the weather correspondent – I could feel the cold.  Brrrrrr…. Poor Sadie.  Love Stedman…at least he asked….right?  
• About Brooke Shields – This one woman show @ Feinsteins sounds wonderful  – 2 weeks only.  Telling her life story through a song.  Hmmmm….The first show was last night.  Gayle…go see it and tell us how it is.  Sounds like it could be interesting.  Wonder what the song list looks like.  Brave to do a one woman show AND sing.  Good luck BS. 
• About Taco Bell – Greg Creed, the run for the border president cleared it all up.  88% meat filling, 3% water, 4% seasoning and spices and 5% secret ingredients that he assured us would probably be found in people’s pantries.  When I quiero Taco Bell, I’ll stick to the bean burrito from the .99 cent menu but only because I haven’t done the meat thing in a few years….so…it leaves me to ask the question, was % of beans is in the beans?  OMG!
