JRand, Kachina is absolutely beautiful!!

Thanks, Jane. I dislike the Tacoma Mall even when their isn't a shooter on the premises.

Yikes! Watching the news now... glad DG Ann didn't satisfy her craving this afternoon for Thai food from the food court!

Me too!!

She just walked in the door from the gym... and I'm now looking for a news update, as this is the first I've heard of it!

Come on, son, you didn't expect them to interupt football for a shooting at the Mall?

Shocking news! Of course when I first heard Washington Mall I thought of DC! We live in dangerous times, making HHW an even greater haven of sanity for those of us here.....well....a haven in any case.

Thanks, DRJANE. Yes Kachina is a lovely 19 year old long haired cat. She loves living in the store and visiting with all the people.

Well, I guess I can safely avoid Poseidon Adventure tonight. I was afraid I might miss this year's big Emmy winner, but I guess not.

Jed is Ann home with you? I'm reading the news about the Tacoma Mall shootings.

I just heard about it! I've been on the computer all day, making CDs from records. Even though some people were shot, at least no one was killed!

Ann · « **Reply #128 on:** November 20, 2005, 06:24:07 PM »

VERY glad I didn't give in to my thai food craving! My goodness, how scary.

Also very glad the aforementioned "beloved Seahawks" managed to hold it together. DB Jed is never a happy boy after a loss.

According to IMBb:

Plot Outline: A cruise ship succumbs to a terrorist act and capsizes on New Year's eve. A rag-tag group of survivors, spearheaded by a priest and a homeland security agent, must journey through the upside down vessel and attempt an escape.

and:

User Comments: 3 hours of my life I won't get back.

The only reason that I was planning on watching it was because there is ALSO supposed to be a major motion picture re-make of this and I'm going to want to compare.

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #130 on:** November 20, 2005, 06:59:13 PM »

Why not compare it to the original movie and let the TV version sink into oblivion?

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #131 on:** November 20, 2005, 07:00:28 PM »

I opted, finally, for "Return of the King" -- and was amazed at all the new things I discovered...and all the emotions that got stirred up.

The trilogy is watched for another year!

I used to read the novel annually. I may begin it after the new year!

Are you eating?

Thanks for the congrats on charting on the footlight chart.

For the record (pun intended

), we're not the first Kritzerland release to chart on a footlight chart. The Harvey Schmidt CD is the #3 seller for the "Theater-related" chart for the past 60 days.

Hey everyone, sorry I've been E&T for a few days... I seem to be having time management issues lately. I must resolve to be more organized.

Anyway, Jason, happy birthday!

I finally caught up on season 1 of Lost, and now I'm freaking out and I NEED to see what happens next! Anyone have the first episodes of season 2 recorded and want to loan them to me? Put me out of my misery, please!

I seem to have misplaced War and Peace and I was so close to the end... and something really exciting had just happened... so I'm cliffhanging there too. Sigh.

In other news, the student film is finished... almost. Now the director is having second thoughts about his choices, so it's a good thing I didn't call them to make offers yet! Sheesh. Well, that's exactly why I decided to wait over the weekend to give him time to sleep on it.

Question for you actors: I asked an actor how tall he was and he seemed to get a little miffed about that. I needed to know because we didn't get to match these two people up, and we wanted to cast them together but we didn't know if it would look ridiculous, since the guy is a little on the short side and the girl seems taller than she actually is. So the question is, Is it inappropriate to ask an actor his/her height? I've always thought it should be on the resume anyway... so what's the issue?

Okay, I hope to be back around more frequently, what with the holiday coming up. I'll have more down time and be able to come here to relax and commune with you fine people.

OH and I saw Harry Potter at midnight Thursday... and I can't really tell you what I thought of it, because I couldn't concentrate on the plot. That's all I'm gonna say about that... but I think many of you can probably imagine why. Let's just say those boys sure are grown.

The NFL game on CBS overran its time period, so I didn't get a chance to see COLD CASE tonight. This will be one I'll have to catch in reruns.

Matt H. · « **Reply #143 on:** November 20, 2005, 08:16:29 PM »

When I finished my cleaning tonight, I put in a movie I haven't watched in several years - DANTE'S PEAK.

Even for a film made some years ago and a DVD that was one of the earlier ones done at the start of the DVD revolution, the DVD transfer still looks good, and the special effects are very well done. I couldn't remember how it ended, so I enjoyed seeing it in its entirety.

Matt H. · « **Reply #144 on:** November 20, 2005, 08:20:46 PM »

Since I had about 45 minutes before the start of DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES, I put in the DVD of GIGI, another film I haven't watched in at least a couple of years.

It is an enhanced transfer, but this is a movie that could do with a face lift. The color was fine, but there was dirt on the print used and thus it didn't look as good as it could have looked. It seemed slightly darker in look than I remembered, too. It has a Dolby 5.1 soundtrack, but the sound engineers didn't route much music to the rears at all and they are virtually wasted.

Still, I got through "She Is Not Thinking of Me" before I closed it down for the night.

Still wishin' and hopin' and prayin' that my copies of both CDs arrive in the mail soon.

Matt H. · « **Reply #146 on:** November 20, 2005, 08:21:49 PM »

And DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES had some laugh out loud funny moments tonight along with some touching scenes, too.

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #147 on:** November 20, 2005, 08:23:32 PM »

Just finished a relaxing shower, I've got clothes washing in the machine, and my dinner is in the microwave (just some warmed over pot roast and potatoes).

"The Poseidon Adventure" is on the telly, but not because I wanted to watch it. I notice, though, that they seem to have cast a looks-something-like in the Roddy McDowall role.

Yawn.

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #148 on:** November 20, 2005, 08:24:30 PM »

I do hope to see "Harry Potter" next week.

And, of course, I have a matinee to attend Saturday of "White Christmas" at San Francisco's Curran Theater.

Matt H. · « **Reply #149 on:** November 20, 2005, 08:25:10 PM »

On ROME's season finale, we got to the Ides of March, very well staged and as tragic as always. Lindsey Duncan has Servilla's cold smugness down to a science. Riveting.

Now we have to wait a year for new episodes.
