That picture of Kerry would make someone a good avatar.

Yes, but...

Who?

Which DR would it be?

Sounds like somebody did not get to play his instrument of choice.

But those HD broadcasts eat up space...and I recorded four of those shows last night.

But isn't it nice to have a gizmo that saves them in HD!

Today will be a stressful roller coaster ride for DRs FJL, Noel, and the companies of The Last Starfighter and Such Good Friends.

I watched an interesting movie last night, though...."Detective Code 62"...a 1933 Warner Brothers "Vitaphone" programmer starring William Powell.

Very unusual 1-hour 17-minute film with Powell being ousted from Paris (and France) where he was working as a detective and where he had been caught with sensitive documents. Just as he's arriving at NYC port, the captain of the French vessel receives a wire telling him to return with Powell who will be further scrutinized. Powell escapes, jumps ship and swims to shore. He talks his way into a job with a flea-bag detective agency. Soon, the agency is thriving. But Powell's partner yields to too much temptation. Powell is assigned to "get something good" on a society dame who has been winning big at a local gambling joint. Powell's partner is a "secret partner" of the owner of the gambling joint. Powell shows up at the casino, dressed to the nines, and falls in love with this woman. At any rate, he learns about what's going on after a phony murder set-up, a real murder, a setup to murder him, etc. It's fast, it's tongue-in-cheek, and it was the perfect vehicle for Powell to "test" for the role of Nick Charles. Powell was one of those rare movie stars...one who instinctively knew how to "act" when the cameras rolled. I was glad I saw it, and I was glad to delete it, too.

Taking a breather from sending out emails of the new Playbill article, and also dealing with a few tax office matters. Julie and Skip are at the theatre, in the trenches, but I need to be by a computer for another hour or so in case anything comes up office-wise.

High spirits and many broken legs for tonight's opening, DR FJL.

Can hardly wait till tomorrow's matinee, when Joe will see one of his favorite movies come to life on the stage. I've been humming "Spring Break" and "Love Is like Water" all afternoon.

Finally, a somewhat cool breeze just came through the window -- even with the cool front this dive, I mean sublet, is stuffy. The windows face to the courtyard, backyard --which is surrounded by buildings so no air. The bedroom ac works but the one here in the living area doesn't. Oh well, maybe it will cool down tonight...

By the way, TD, have I mentioned that I am very happy that someone else on this hear board seems to enjoy a regular diet of Bollywood movies!

I think I have BLACKMAIL somewhere in my stack of DVDs...I had forgotten that Sunil Shetty was in it.

You must rent 36 CHINA TOWN, by the way...it was such a fun movie (not the least because of the very long shirtless scene at the beginning with Upen Patel).

I ADORED 36 CHINA TOWN! When I was watching CHUP CHUP KE the other night, I knew that I had seen Shahid Kapoor in something that I really liked him in - - and that would have been 36 CHINA TOWN.

And, DR MBarnum, if it weren't for BRIDE & PREJUDICE and YOU, well, my appetite for Bollywood might have gone unsated, not to mention, lain dormant for gawd knows how long. . .

Other than the humidity, the NYC adventure has been delightful. The two Brainiacs are taking a power nap before call, so I'm trying to catch up. We already miss DR Jeanne (the slumber party ain't the same without you) -- thanks for the chocolates!! All of our goodies -- save a small portion of Monkey Cake -- from the Temptress are long gone -- thanks DR Enabler!! ALL of the HHWers we've met have been charming. DR Edi and her loving DH are witty and fun (great with the puns and word play) -- and (Sound of Music song cue insert for How DO You Solve A Problem Like Maria spoof), how do you describe some guys with names like Jason, Jose, SlingingHash, FJL, MusicGuy, bk, Cason and BJ? Like being thrown in a barrel of monkies -- and way more fun! Dinner at the diner was wacky and festive (and full moon crazy) -- Thank you MusicGuy!! When I get caught up, I'll try to post reviews and reports. Wish you all were here, as they always write in the small town papers a good time is being had by all.
