Tom and Colin should be in Niagra Falls/Buffalo or Toronto by now. I hope that their time with Dan-in-Toronto is as pleasant.

Tuesday morning greetings!  This afternoon I have Know It All Now training - that's Ohio's live chat 24/7 reference service that we monitor weekday afternoons and Saturdays.  I hear there's a real nice thank-you gift...

Good morning!

We're back to early fall! Cool mornings where I can cool down the house and then shut the doors and windows for the high 70s-low 80s that the afternoon brings.

Should be a beautiful day today.

I'm going to try the new Ted Danson comedy tonight: HELP ME HELP YOU. Well, I'll DVR it; I'll probably be watching LAW & ORDER: CRIMINAL INTENT during that time period.

Looks like an offshoot of the old BOB NEWHART SHOW. The patients seem like they may be fun to watch.

DR Elmore - thanks for the links for your show and for Fred & Skip's.  It's so much fun to stand on the virtual sidelines as these projects develop.

Good Morning!

Well, I thought sleeping in would be a good idea, but I have a sense that I may have slept a bit too much.  Ah, well...

However, I have nothing scheduled until the show tonight so...

But, I do have some relatives visiting, so I'll be heading out to my parents' place in a bit for a visit.

TOD: Some of mine have already been mentioned (It's a Wonderful Life, The Philadelphia Story) but the remaining might be:
Play It Again, Sam
The Producers
Man Facing Southeast
The 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T
Quiz Show
Truly, Madly, Deeply
Harold and Maude
Amadeus
(I'm sure I'm forgetting something REALLY important!!)

As a relative newbie, I've already been introduced to new music, plays and films that I never would have heard of if I had not visited. (Not to mention Acquanetta!)

Some day, I'd love the topic of the day to be everybody's favorite documentaries. I would love to hear everyones' impressions and discover some new films I haven't seen. (BTW, a few days ago somebody mentioned "Wordplay", the crossword puzzle doc. It's definitely worth seeing!) So bk, when you run out of TODs....
