der Brucer, thank you for the lovely bird photos.

~~Well, why don't you kick you-know-who in the butt and~~

Any chance you'll have access to a camera so we can have some more Sherlock pictures?

Tonight we are working on fight choreography with Fred and Lilli, singing "Bianca" and seeing the choreography for "Too Darn Hot" - which I have a feeling will look very much like a dance recital with a few pole dancers and strippers thrown in.....I hope I am wrong.....

We are having South Carolina weather right now. It's warm, muggy and raining off and on.

This is totally NOT the kind of weather I've experienced here over the past 15 years.

What about commercials that would be considered terribly politically incorrect by today's standards? The one that springs to mind is for Calgon water softener with the Caucasian customer asking the Chinese dry cleaners owner how he gets the clothes so clean, and his reponse is, "ancient Chinese secret." I don't think that would make it on the air today.

But it really breaks the stereotype when the wife appears announces they need more Calgon in a "caucausian" voice.

Luckily he didn't say "No tickee. No shirtee"

Quick note about two commercials that I did.

One was for a restaurant. I was a father, two kids and a wife. I got a by out as I thought it was a short run. It ran for over two years!!

It did cause some problems for me in a weird way.

I was student teaching around the same time and all the students wanted to know was about was the commercial and my family.

I finally got fed up and told them my family was killed in a car accident. That put an end to that.

Another commercial I did I have never seen as it only appeared in the UK.

I did a one scene bit in a film that Bob Hoskins was directing and starring in. I guess I did well because he asked for me to work in the commercial. I have no recollection what happened in the commercial other than it was for British Telecom.

And the movie? As far as I know it was never released to the theaters. And I don't know if I made the final cut.

Michael · « **Reply #163 on:** May 04, 2009, 04:03:09 PM »

AS FOR THE TOD

I always like the commercials with catchy jingles or phrases.

I can't believe I ate the whole thing....You ate it Ralph.

DR ArnoldMBrockman - When you asked, "And what is his name?", I guess I was reading a bit more into your question than you had intended. -Or something like that.

The past few days in Chicago - coupled with my time in Charleston - have been very inspiring, motivating and renewing. There have been some wonderful moments over the past couple of days which have reminded me, "Jose", what I have been, what I am, and what I could be and should be.

So many possibilities.

This is just wonderful, DR Jose. I am extremely happy for you!

Oh what a crazy night on THE AMAZING RACE last night!

OMG. What a fabulous ending! OMG!!!! My favorite team are the cheerleaders.
\So i was feeling pretty glum near the end. Although i had my fingers crosssed.
I just couldn't understand them last night! They had bad luck and made some
stupid mistakes. But first off, how is it that they (redheads) came to phil first
(at the beginning of the show) and yet the black sisters (who must have
taken much longer swimming) showed up at the first task ahead of them. Was
the swimming task edited to make it seem like the sisters had more trouble
than they did. I just figure it must have been 1-2 hours at the very least that
it took them.Some of the problems the cheerleaders had were not their fault.
But one area where i could not believe it was when they were all dressed up
in opera costumes. Why did they separate from the others??? That was a
stupid mistake. If you are having troubles stick with the pack. If they had
stayed with luke and margie they would have passed the sisters.
I feel bad that the sisters lost because one had to pee. Although i'm not
quite sure why she just didn't squat and do it on the ground. It is for
$1M. What a great ending though. I love that phil was not in an easy place
to find. And i loved that one of jamie and cara ate down that food so quickly.
I know they are showing them sometimes to be a bit impatient. But i'm sure
it must be horrific when the taxis won't take you (even if they are empty).
And that they don't give you any acknowledgement once you are in there.
I'm curious what people think of tammy and victor. To me they are showing
them lately as if they are spoiled rich kids. It bugged me that they chose a
chinese team fluent in chinese when the whole last episodes were in china.
Having them just repeat the order was so unfair. I can't quite figure it out
(why they had that as a task).one two three four five six seven eight nine ten

agreed with about all you said. I was glad to see the last place team go home. I like all of the final three.

This is exactly the final i want. Although i was surprised that joan came back. I
really did not think she was coming back. BUt why did they let clint be PM. He really
does not listen. He is the worst leader ever. He doesn't consider anyone else's
opinion if he does not agree with it. To me they should have had jesse james as
PM. ANd let clint be in charge of the song. But joan was right. the song needed to
be faster. But of course clint did not listen. BUt still his song was better than
annie's. I totally get why she is in the finals. That was a no brainer. And i would
have gotten rid of brande too. I was not sure between jesse and joan rivers.
I wanted them to pick joan. But i think jesse is very good. I think he just wasn't
trying hard enough in so many tasks. I"m surprised trump just didn't say, "well
everyone wants to see a joan/annie final so jesse you're fired!. Should be
very interesting next week.one two three four five six seven eight nine ten

I wasnt' at all surprised that Clint was the PM or that he went home. I didn't think Jesse did very well on the show. I wasn't surprised at the final two. It will be the most drama and the most fun.

All the photos I took are a wee bit blurry. Keith fiddled with the new camera & I think he fixed the problem. When it stops raining I'll practice with the camera again.

It is pouring today because I had my yearly visit with the endocrinologist. It seems to either snow or rain on my scheduled appointment day, except for the day I had to cancel my appointment due to the Poison Oak. Speaking of that, last night was the 2nd night in a row I didn't spend half the night scratching my arms. FINALLY!!

Has anyone seen THIS commercial for Dex phone books? The actor playing the son has also been in a Progressive Insurance commercial and another commercial where he's holding a baby, and he was on a few episodes of a TV series where he had a speech impediment (for comedic effect) but I don't remember what the show was. Anyway, I think he looks like a very young BK! Does anyone else think so?

You mean the old guy?
