| I gave the choir thing about 5 minutes the other night. One of Mr ML's coworkers has a relative of some sort competing in that show. When the country music guy said he couldn't read music (and had no idea what voices even made up a choir) I was like... duh! Only thing I like about it is, it's one singing reality show I wouldn't be too old to try out for! : I've sung in plenty of choruses/choirs over the years (though not so much lately - lately being about the last 25-30 years). It probably will come down to who is the most popular celebrity leading the choir though, not who is the best singer. That's the other thing I don't like about the reality shows, when people can call up and vote. It's not like the phone companies need any more money and then it's not who is best, it's who has the most fans (with phones). My friend who watched it said Patti LaBelle was the best.
Sorry if that was TMI on TV world! As Will Rogers (?) used to say, I only know what I read in the papers (or in this case, the internet).
Now the WGA is asking people not to download/stream shows or give DVDs (from studios) as Christmas gifts to support their strike! Too late! I hope they settle their strike soon because I'm dying to watch the rest of 'Blood Ties'!
Yankee Swap with a bunch of coworkers (all women around the same age with similar interests) isn't bad. We did that at my previous job. Although it never was that funny and some people gave you absolute cr*p. I remember Mr ML's work used to do a secret santa swap thing and he got the person a nice gift and she gave him a little rock (it was a 'worry stone' and had a dip in it you could rub with your thumb). He was so mad! LOL!
LOL about the poor mousies! Funny story! Women are such screamers. I was in a basement type restaurant once, and a bat started swooping around. You should have heard the screaming (and covering of hair - total myth that bats land in ladies hair). I like bats! (although granted a lot of them can give you rabies these days) Mice are such timid little creatures - they really aren't cut out for stealthy home invasions (their little trail of mouse poo always gives them away! LOL!). I had a pet mouse when I was a kid - I don't know how I can in good conscience snap their little necks in traps now. But I really hate them pooping on my countertops and chewing holes in the bag of flour, etc. They can spread diseases and such too. sigh. Sort of like spiders - I generally leave those alone, unless they decide to hang around over my bed (or over the bathroom sink, etc). If they want to lurk in a corner and eat whatever bugs we might have, more power to them! The guy downstairs is a vegetarian (and has lots of grain in the house) and I'm sure as heck he isn't putting out any mousetraps! 
sigh. Why won't Jason come and take me away from all this! LOL! Oh yeh, cause he's married to KaDee now. Oh well, back to it! 
One night I was walking the dog and this cat was chasing something back and forth around the street - my dog got interested and wanted to join in the game and the cat was SO insulted! "Hey, get your own mouse!"  __________________ Jason B is #1 with me "I'm with the vampires"
