After finishing my work project viewing, I skimmed through today's ONE LIFE TO LIVE. My boys were on (but only a little bit together). Oh, boy, this is heading for a BIG surprise once the paternity of Stacey's baby is finally revealed. I kind of dread it actually, but it'll prove how strong Kyle and Oliver are, especially if they have to become "dads."

I skimmed through ATWT, too, but there was nothing of interest. Of course, Luke did turn up in the previews for next week with the doctor that's supposedly going to become involved with him. Well, that's what I read somewhere.

Well, I must hop off-line so I can get some writing done on my work project. Then I'll head back downstairs for last night's second 30 ROCK episode, PROJECT RUNWAY, and that MENTALIST rerun before settling in with tonight's new primetime episodes of GHOST WHISPERER and MEDIUM.

Good Afternoon!

5:19pm on the Right Coast, and we're only on Page Three?!?!?!

Heck, that would even prompt me to get some bitch-slapping going.

I prefer "schmutz" too.  -And that actually comes up as a "real word" - Yiddish/German derivation, ya' know.

As for the Topic of the Day...

Besides switching back and forth between WNYC and WQXR, the only other thing that comes to mind is the OCR of The Story of My Life... Which I happened to listen to on the subway... And, of course, by the time train reached 59th Street... And "Mrs. Remington" ended... I was crying.

Interesting pastrami article.  I know which LOOKS better, and I'm sure, for me, the better looking one would win the taste test - Langer's. 

I actually think the hand-cut pastrami from Katz's looks better.  As for the taste-test, well... TBD.  -At least in regards to my own personal taste-testing.

*Truth be told, when I go Katz's, I usually get their corned beef.  Unctuous, I tell ya. Unctuous!

Oh...

So I ended up going to see and hear the New Year Philharmonic earlier this afternoon.  They had a special 2:00 matinee, and they had tickets available for $20 in the Atrium.  I ended up with a great seat basically smack dab in the center of the orchestra - well, the seating section, not the actual orchestra.

It was a cool program.  The first half consisted of a Haydn symphony and John Adams' "The Wound Dresser" with baritone, Thomas Hampson, as the soloist.  The second half opened with Schubert's "Unfinished Symphony" and closed with Berg's "Three Pieces for Orchestra".  -I had never heard the Berg played live before, and, man-oh-man, was it LOUD.  -And I mean that in a good way!  And when that final sledgehammer fell - WOW!  -I liked it.  -And it also happened to wake up some of the members of the audience who had started to doze off. ;)

I think the film FANNY with Leslie Caron is better than the original musical on which it's based, but it was a lot of fun to hear the entire score at today's reading. The OBC is a real letdown. Rob Berman has my undying devotion for being both an easy-going musician and a conductor who never seems to stop making music. I've worked with some really fine conductors and some who only beat time, and Rob is at the top of my list. I do want to see the Encores! production very much.

So, I'm home. i just signed off on the Moross SHARKFIGHTERS score and i've got some work on Herbert and Kern tonight.

Does anyone want this ticket for tomorrow night's MAGIC FLUTE at Symphony Space?

DR CILLA LIZ - Salvation Army is a good donation.....and everyone might think about Doctors W/O Borders, too.

That's who I went with.  Both organizations are already there and are both good choices.

I've been leery about giving to the Red Cross in emergency cases ever since 9/11 when the stories came out about them having money to burn and that they were giving funds to people to take their dogs to get massages.


I have not given one dime to the Red Cross since I found out that they bill people for the help that they give out.  What is the purpose of me donating money, if they are then going to collect it back from the victims?

Did you PROJECT RUNWAY fans notice there are two (count 'em) Portland designers this time?  (Actually one's from Vancouver, WA, but that's just across the Columbia from Portland and as any Oregonian will tell you, it's "really" Oregon).  ;)

Is anybody else planning to watch the new FOX show HUMAN TARGET?  I believe it premieres on Fox on sunday and starts on wednesday. The canadian channel that shows it is premiering it tonight instead of sunday. I have not really heard anything about it, although i've seen numerous promos.

I have read a couple of very positive reviews.  They do advise you not to think too hard about the plotlines.
