From December, 1956, MGM Cartoons present Tom and Jerry in Barbecue Brawl, co-starring Spike and Tyke, with music by Scott Bradley. Produced and directed by Joseph Barbera and William Hanna.
Tonight's feature film is a video montage of National Lampoon's Vacation starring Chevy Chase, Beverly DeAngelo, Randy Quaid and Christie Brinkley to the song Holiday Road.
Summer starts for many next weekend - no matter what the calendar says. Whatcha got planned? As always, this is Late Late Nite FireDoglake, where off topic is the topic ... so dive in.

*ndfg collapses from technical frazzle and admires anew all the wonderful back-stage folk at the Lake*
Moi…? *g*
Oh, my dear CT,
I forget. Good heavens, down filled floor length coat with fake fur on the hood. I’m NOT FROM AROUND HERE, and found the winter wear unbearable.
i find solace in the fact that everything there costs 25% more
including sunburn medication
NDFG___>>>___>>>

We are attending a meeting in Edinburgh, Scotland, in September. We hope to stay a few extra days for touring. Other than that, just Patty’s graduation in DE at Winterthur.
Are you still in SA, or are you blogging from the road?
I’m heading down to New Orleans in June … first trip back since we sold the house last July, it will be interesting to see what (if anything) has changed
christine e, scotland is on my must go there before i die list.
NDFG- won’t let me login.
I just checked our weather. By Monday we will be back in the upper 90’s. May in South Central Texas.
I’ve been there twice, and can’t wait to go again. We love the music so much.
Which part of NO? What was it like?
You must be very proud. Did the apartment work out?
sorry suze, new to this *ndfg falls on knees and begs for forgiveness*
i hear them all
LooHoo, the spook is working on it and we’ll get back to you.
no problem, ndfg. just letting ya know so be judicious and use it wisely is all that we ask :)
and you have only started learning about life backstage, i fear i am obliged to tell ya
It did. What a stressful situation! We had to hire a broker, who was great, but we had to pay thousands…
we lived on the west bank, it didn’t flood there … but I worked in eastern New Orleans, which got hammered and was still mostly uninhabited in the early part of last year
Merci, Madame;)
tis my pleasure, ma’am
neuro, you still having that late late nite slowness loading problem?
Were you out of New Orleans (I assume**) when Katrina hit?
Yep. It hits every night about the time I try to open up LLN.
loohoo, you should be on system, try again (ndfg apologizes for intruding Other Matters on a Lake thread)
if you right click on your bottom task bar, you can bring up your task manager. do it and see what applications are running next time that happens. you can also click on its processor tab to see what is using the most CPU and memory
late late nite - off topic is the topic ndfg… not a problem at all
Worked for me, ndfg!
Hot enough for ya?
;>)
And Suz - Tom & Jerry - new to me!
yes, spent three weeks in Houston … Mrs Cat & I packed up my 2 kids and our 10 cats and hit the road Saturday night, Katrina came ashore Monday morning
And yes, we are very proud.
Good night Suzanne.
You guys wore me out downstairs.
And, I’ll send good vibes up your way for a good showing.
(Don’t work too hard.)
them boys from oklahoma
g’nite demi and thanks
g’night demi! sweet dreams.
thanks newton. the wiki link in the post for the cartoon had some interesting facts about this particular cartoon.
:-(
i know.. i’m hunting down those other ant utubes.
Well, it is time for lights out in the Gnome world. All the pups in the gnome house are snoring peacefully, so I think I shall join them. Until the morrow, folks.
That’s great. Ouch on the apartment, hope there’s a bed for mom.
pups picnic
and catnapping
Too many perps in that tavern, ma’am…Oklahoma, you say?
;>)
so they claim :)
g’night gnome. Hope your pups don’t chase rabbits in their sleep as noisily as my dear departed old LuLu did.
Suzanne, it says the only application running is Firedoglake.
As for processes, there are about 42, the largest are:
CCAP.EXE 55,452K
IEXPLORE.EXE 36,196 K
svchosy.exe 31,900
Lucoms~1.EXE 17,372 K
I don’t know what any of this means.
g’nite gnome
ok… tomorrow nite, when es’s sun nite ln post goes up, check to see how your numbers compare now and then
neuro, do you have windows update or any anti-virus software that updates automatically? it might be updating this time of night?
alabama
Hey, where have you been??
(Can’t get on,NDFG.) And I expected to be first.
AirportCat, I don’t know anything about windows update.
I have norton antivirus but I don’t know when it updates. Would it show up under “applications” if it was running?
boa noite pups
gonna go watch a movie with mr now that baby kitty is asleep
nite wobbly
boa noite wobbly
g’nite weebits
You ding dong done did it now
;>)
not sure if it would show up … Mrs Cat had McAfee and that updated at 3AM, you could always tell (if you were on) because it had a little icon at the bottom of the screen indicating it was loading updates, and of course it slowed down the connection drastically
Sleep tight, wobbly.
hehe i likt that nickname for her
weebits, it is
time for me to clear the kitties off the screened porch, get everyone in for the night, and turn in …
Hey db!
That’s pretty original!
Working, and avoiding blogging.
;>)
aw shucks, i wasn’t trying to steal your naming rights, wobbly. but she/he is such a wee one and you are the bits…
Suze, I went to Costco today and got a couple of racks of spare ribs, then I went to Corralitos markeet and sausage and got 5 lbs of hot link. Then I went to Whole Foods and got a half Gallon of Bone Suckin’ barbecue sauce.
Got mah lump charcoal, my smoke wood and I’m gonna be cookin’! I am a hound dog for barbecue and I’m makin’ some next weekend.
That and numerous naps.
loohoo, send me your email address via facebook, spook is creating a new user name for you & needs it. For some unknown reason, system said yours was an invalid user name.
sweet lorraine
corrolitos market makes the best sausage that guy.
was that your wave i felt when ya went past lexington reservoir/bear creek exit?
Well, it’s not the Jimmy Carl Black version…That has the full effect, N.
Now for some apple-cheeked goodness.
;>)
I love it! Good job, Suz!
Well, we want you to be rested for the general!!!
what did newton ever do to you db? (laughing)

My favorite band from Monterey.
The following year, and for the next eight years, they were the best live band in the world. Bar none. ANd I saw ‘em every time they got to the Bay Area.
I was the biggest Who freak in the world for all that time. RIP OX and Moonie.
Suzanne. Best with your sale tomorrow! How’s Joanie?
Sho ’nuff.
thanks, loohoo. joanie is doing good - she’s keeping busy working on her tan and taking care of the kitties.
loohoo, ygm
*feeling faint*
*wandering aimlessly*
back’at’cha dude
Who, me? I love everybody.
Well…Um…er…
;>)
My second fave from Monterey
Otis was THE King of Soul and had he lived, tha’ts what he’d be known as. Check out Steve Cropper on his Telecaster.
janis
sigh.. otis was taken way too early

Janis was at her peak at Monterey. She was great. But she never reached me like the WHo and Otis. There are times when I listen to Otis and I STILL grieve that loss. What a genius. Ol’ Delbert does a few Otis tunes and we have been known to do a few live.
Woo-Hoo, I’ve got a little assistance now, at M&C! Rangeragainstthewar just joined me, and i posted his article… 8-)
any restrictions for rogues posting your art for use in various and sundry forums? I’ve taken the liberty a few times for a timely and good cause.
art
Nothing works, you two heartthrobs, but I see the other comments. Check caps, spaces and punctuation? Loo Hoo.
Not at all, as long as it honors creative commons use.
A minor aspect of freedom in an unfree world.

excellent news, ct. its hard work running a blog solo.

schrodinger was an optimist
Otis was wonderful beyond words.
I love Dock of the Bay, but I equally loved Linda Ronstadt doing Blue Bayou.
