Since DR ELmore is working his way through season three of BONES, I thought I'd do the same, so I watched the first two episodes of the season while I cooked and ate lunch. This is the Gormagon season, so a good number of episodes focus on that either partly or wholly. This was the writer's strike season, so it's shorter than the others, and the writers didn't really get a chance to delve deeply into the cannibal's conscripting of one of the lab's workers. I guess that's why it was SO unsatisfying for me once the identity was revealed at the end of the season. It just didn't ring true and seemed so haphazardly arrived at.

I mouthed off to Keith while he was giving Sherlock a shower, not a wise thing to do to a person holding a water sprayer ;D  I wish I had a photo of his expression he soooo wanted to get me.  I figured the realization he would also spray the entire bathroom saved me, nope only that it wasn't right to "get" a partial invalid. :)  Boy or boy, did he ever want to spray me. :)

I should also mention I'm half wet to begin with between the water that Keith always sprays out of the shower & Sherlock shaking water all over me.

Then I spent the rest of the afternoon with ARMAGEDDON. It's very typical Michael Bay stuff: lots of things go boom, lots of smart aleck one liners at the height of crises, and plot holes a mile wide that require complete suspension of disbelief. All that said, I'd be lying if I didn't admit to tearing up at the conclusion. He finds ways to work the emotions despite all the things that go wrong, one after another after another.

The bare bones bonus features are the same that were on the Disney DVD of the movie: a music video and two theatrical trailers. That's it: no commentary, no behind the scenes interviews or making of featurettes. This was a lost opportunity for Disney since this was a big, big hit in its day and a movie that lots of people like despite all its flaws.

Well, that was a quick internet surf, but I want to go ahead and get to work on my writing, so I'll hop off-line now and get to it.

Right now, I'm watching "Doctor Who: The Ultimate Guide."  It's an informative retrospective on the whole new series and there are many clips of and interviews with the new doctor, Matt Smith.

I'm home.  The flight was fast and on time.  Then we had a car hiccup in that the guy wrote down PM instead of AM, so I had to sit at the airport for forty minutes while he came to get me.  I got home quickly, though.  Then I had to deal with an emergency hiccup about our next release - I've had to put it on hold for a few days and it could conceivably go away, but I'm hoping everything works out.  This has to do with the publisher - the master recording is owned by MGM, but the publishing is owned by the composer and since this is a first release, one has to get permission.  I've actually never had to before, but I got a note about it and the guy is being persnickety, but I'm hoping it will all work out by the end of the week.  Meanwhile, I've got to jump on another project right now.

DR FJL I am sure DR GEORGE's personal brain IS lovely, but yes I was referring to his photo from yesterday.

DR CP obviously needs to be more aware of where the camera is.   I Myself, if cameras are around, exhibit behavior much like that of Jerry Lewis in THE ERRAND BOY.

I was quite aware of where the camera was and was avoiding it like the plague.  It was BK's night.  No need for me to be in pictures with his cast.

BK, I envy you the trip to Gold Star, though I always preferred Skyline Chili myself. I haven't made a good pot of Cincinnati chili in a while. May have to change that in the near future.

I have a slight preference for Gold Star over Skyline, but I'll happily eat either.  And my actual favourite is Dixie Chili over in Newport.  Perhaps because it's open 24hrs.

I guess that's why it was SO unsatisfying for me once the identity was revealed at the end of the season. It just didn't ring true and seemed so haphazardly arrived at.

I'm still bummed that Zak ended up being the apprentice! I love his relationship with Hodgins and, while I think his character is geeky and stunted, I cannot believe he would align himself with a  serial killer!

I had a good meeting with my friend Zach Stains, the naked Hercules, and we worked on scheduling singers. The hitch is that we ended up with questions only our recording producer can answer, so I'm waiting.

Welcome back safely, BK!

At that point I think I would have taken a cab.  Was the car much less?

I put a multitude of books on hold at the library.  All but one had people in the queue ahead of me, now 5 of the books are available for me to check out.  I've got to do some fast reading as I just started a long book a friend lent me & soon I'll have THE GIRL WHO KICKED THE HORNET'S NEST from another friend.
