Today we are saying goodbye to

danialtravieso

This isn't a surprise. But damnit, it should be.

I got the biggest smile when I saw that he came back this season. Go back and read his stuff if you've missed it. Not just his poem for the run off but the last few entries. The "Smile" wasn't, IMO, up to his usual standard, but I still liked it quite a bit.

He doesn't fit everyone's taste and he certainly doesn't conform to anyone's rules. The word "brave" gets thrown around a lot. I know that I use it - Just showing up and putting yourself out there is an act of bravery after all.

Showing up, knowing that you are going to put your head into the lion's mouth week after week? That you are going to be the odd one out and still not compromising a single ounce of your vision?

Yeah, he's an All Star in my book.

I hope that he does decide to play the Home Game and that he gets the chance to showcase his talent in front of a larger audience. Because he certainly deserves it.

With the "reveal video" at the end, there isn't any doubt in my mind that he knew he would be going in this run off before the first vote was even cast.He did it anyway and he did it the way he wanted to go out. You can't ask for anymore than that.

This year, we had so much rain during the peak weeks of fall foliage that I was lucky to get any photos at all. Here are my best pictures taken over the last month or so.

When Fox’s Glee premiered, CL readers (OK, Lily the intern) demanded a goofy podcast talking about the show, the songs and Bruce Springsteen. Now, we make good on this demand:

Click here to listen to 3 Guys and Glee, the Podcast with Kevin Hopp, Rabid Nick Refer and Jimbo.

This week’s episode is entitled “Wheels,” so let’s take a look shall we?

The episode revolves mainly around Artie, or “wheelchair guy,” as I referred to him. (Very PC of me, huh?) The Glee club needs to raise money so Artie can join them on the bus ride to regional's. Meanwhile, Quinn the hottie is showing some serious affection for the mohawk-lovin’ Puck, and Finn is still stressed. Also, in a surprise move, our favorite Cheerio coach Sue opens up her softer side for the new recruit.

Missing this week: We didn’t see any of Will’s evil wife (poor Ken Tanaka), or the guidance counselor.

The songs were well done this episode (as always,) and they include Billy Idol’s Dancin’ with Myself, a song from Wicked called Defying Gravity, and Proud Mary by Ike and Tina Turner.

Overall, “Wheels” is a great Glee episode that stretched the dramatic muscle of the show while leaving fans of great comedy wanting more. Overall, I think it’s important to show a bit of drama after the last few comedic episodes (it gives Glee a nice balance), but I hope they bring back the funny next week.

We hope you enjoy the podcast, and tune in next week for episode 10, entitled “Ballad.”

Every time upper management tells us that "We touch the customer in many different ways," I can't help but imagine a police officer instructing a customer, "Show me on the doll where the company touched you."

I don't think that is what upper management intends for me to think.

I took Caroline to the bus stop this morning and she was happy to see her little friends and they were happy to see her.

I would like to thank everyone for your good wishes, prayers, energy, and everything else. Y’all are good people and don’t tell anyone tell you different.

Our GP put Peter and me on Tamiflu to help either to prevent or shorten our possible H1N1 outbreak. So far we are fever free and feeling OK so far.

So now I pick up the pieces from all the stuff I threw to the side because my child was sick. It has been a bit of a hectic since August. I though our October was going to be a little slower but then we went to Australia and New Zealand. November, however, is going to be a bit slower before we get to our very busy December.

I am grateful for Caroline going to school today.
