Nowhere near caught up, but I'm getting hungry and I think der B must be famished as well.

Ham steaks, carrots, and polenta (that's Italian for grits!).

Quote from: Jeanne on April 10, 2007, 11:40:04 AM
I recently had a situation with a good friend who got just too much into my business, then started dictating to me. I had to break off the friendship, which I hated to do as this person is going through a very difficult time right now and needs support. After a break of several weeks, I'm trying to reestablish the friendship on a much more distant basis. I hate having to break friendships--I always try to keep them in some form. And I really dislike having to be very direct and very firm--the "hit them between the eyes" approach. So, I guess that I, too, would like to hear of others' ways of handling such situations.


You're assuming that DR RP considers the person he is dealing with to be a friend.  The problem is, the person he is dealing with is also assuming friendship.

I think he's more realistic than that.  The co-worker is a co-worker.  Fin.

MusicGuy, I've pencilled in the dinner and am available.

Oh, HUZZAH dear BK....you must scrimp and atone and deny yourself and be generally as if you were wearing a hair shirt AND eating bitter herbs for several days before our festive dinner.  So that no courses will be skipped, and no foods will be passed by!!

Now... as long as the vivacious and studly DR MichaelB doesn't let us down, it will be a truly splendid fete !

Tonight's AMERICAN IDOL.

I'm curious what you guys thought of sanjaya.

I can't believe j lo seemed to love him.

I will say this though. He was good in his original audition. And even though he annoys me a lot, he must be able to get back that something he had originally.

If he had done this performance 5 weeks ago i probably would have liked it. But i just seem to cringe whenever i watch him now.  BUt i agree with simon. It wasn't horrible. It was actually the best he's done in these elimination rounds.

It was interesting to see simon complain about melinda for the first time. I really think she has the best voice. But i must say i just find her slightly boring. And i just don't know if i would want to watch her in a concert performaing song after song.

As for lakisha, i loved her in the beginning. But i'm liking her less each week.

My fav is still blake. I just cannot wait to see what he does every week. And i was very pleased that simon said he was the best of the night. That is really something when you have such good singers.

I think haley has to be the one out this week. I hope it's her and sanjaya.

Yeah my 2 favorites are the first two teams safe!

Well i did think joey fatone did the best dance last night. Although he was in a boy band where they did lots of dance moves. So even though he was out of shape, he still had quite a bit of training.

So the 2 teams safe are apolo and juliane and billy ray and karina. I really love both of those pros as well.

I am quite sure joey will be safe. The only other team i am really rooting for is heather.

The Boo-Key has landed -- he just pulled up to his apartment, so he's back in LA.  Thanks for all the good HHW travel vibes -- they worked perfectly, again!
A-ha!  So yours was the winning bid for the Wicked Witch of the West's Crystal Ball on e-Bay!

Just read muse Margaret the little fixes and she thought they were fine, and now we are finished with this book.  One section, the one where I added about a paragraph, is much better now - there was just a little leap the reader had to make, and I got rid of the leap and spelled out what she felt was missing (having to do with a character who was skeptical suddenly believing what said character is being told).  It really helped, and it was very simple to do.  Otherwise, I added one sentence about twenty pages before that, and changed one word to another near the end of the book.

I went to Staples to print and velo-bind two copies, and that place is just falling apart and getting completely pathetic.  Their velo-bind machine is broken, and their replacement machine is broken and he was just too too busy to even print the pages even if the machines had been working.  I'll be going in tomorrow morning, when someone I know is there and seeing what's what, before I get a manager to deal with it.

Isn't this the results show that you were watching?  Why don't you know if Joey is safe?  Personally, I think John is gone.

Yikes!  When the pool is the highest rated thing, that's never a good sign...
That depends on who is in the pool.

And whether or not it is clothing optional.

And exactly who is in the pool, clothing optional, which is not always a good thing.

Went to the dentist for my cleaning, now my smile is all sparkly...each day brings me closer to having my wisdom teeth removed, but I try not to think about it.

At some time after my tooth removal I will get clear braces for the front teeth,  I only have 3 crooked teeth, not bad.
Also a serious whitening is in my future.

DR Cillaliz, the interviews with those eliminated from TAR are quite good at theamazingracesucks.com.  I believe that these questions are submitted by the forum members (those obcessed with the show).  There have been interviews with all the teams. And there have been very interesting clues about the editing. You should read them because you would not believe some of things you will learn about the show.

I personally find it to be fascinating to learn how the show really works.

Here are a few of the interviews with the eliminated teams:

DR Edisaurus, might S&V ever get picked up for DVD distribution?  Sorry if this was already asked & answered...

No, DR Singdaw, it hasn't been either. It is scheduled to be released in August by our theatrical distributor: www.firstrunfeatures.com  
where you can also view the trailer.

They distributed our last film on DVD, and several DR's were kind enough to purchase it!

Interesting that like YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN, the film was shot on color stock but printed in black and white.

I never knew that about Y.F.. Very interesting!
