My question for bk: have you ever mistakenly sent an email to someone and inadvertently copied someone on it that you hadn't meant to? Someone who was referenced in said email with a somewhat negative tone?

I did that yesterday regarding our film. I didn't say anything horrible and was able to smooth things over quickly, but I still had a panic attack. Greg said he'd never done this, so I wondered how common this was, and if there are any good stories involving said scenario?

I have - many times.

DtM it is my understanding Kindle won't work well when I'm reading at night in the dark. Thanks for the book info. If it seems to heavy when I won't check it out from the library.

They sell little Kindle lights for reading at night.

The 5-10 mile speeding buffer may be a thing of the past:
http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2010-03-30-speeding-cushion_N.htm?se=yahoorefer

Quoted from the article:

Quote

Tim Davenport, 42, of Kansas City, Mo., was recently stopped on 15th Street in Blue Springs, Mo., and ticketed for going 40 mph in a 35-mph zone — although the police officer initially ticketed him for 40 in a 25, he says. "I drove down that road again, and the posted limit was 35," he says. "I figured the judge wouldn't accept that, since I was over the speed limit, and would still charge me with it. So I went ahead and paid" the $60 ticket.

Too bad this guy didn't fight the ticket. Since the officer wrote the wrong posted speed down, the ticket is null and void.

I'm not sure how many people love Cadbury's easter cream eggs. But here is a Todd Wilbur clone. I have not yet tried. But i am definitely going to. I like the idea about putting it in little egg molds (i wonder if i have those?)

Are your made in England or Canada. The ones I've have directly from England taste better than the ones made here, or used to. It has been awhile since I've had a Cadbury egg. I used to buy them for Craig.

We watched CASTLE last night & agree with Matt H, excellent episode. Matt, I'm baffled why you thought Martha had anything to do with the killer?

I couldn't remember the name of the younger man she was dividing her time with, and I thought maybe a surprise would spring out that he had been dating her to get close to Castle so he could somehow get to Beckett through him.

Got it, or why you made the connection

For me it was always about Nikki Heat. I enjoyed Dana Delany's character.

After today's meeting, I guess I can officially announce that in September I will begin a recording project of all the extant cello & piano music, piano solo music, and songs written for other venues than a show by Victor Herbert; this will include German lieder, Irish patriotic songs, Irish folksong arrangements, songs for plays, vaudeville acts and revues, and special occasion pieces like the Catholic University Alma Mater. Soloists will include Rebecca Luker, George Dvorsky, Ron Raines, Jeanne Lehman, Zachary Stains (DR JRand's fave Hercules), Steven LaBrie, Korliss Uecker, Rosalie Sullivan, Margaret Jane Wray, Dillon McCartney, Marnie Breckinridge, Valerian Ruminski, Jonathan Michie, and Christopher Fitzgerald, accompanied by William Hicks, who will be piano soloist. The cellist will be Jerry Grossman, principal cellist of the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra, a post once held by Victor Herbert.

Congratulations, Larry!!

Yes, CONGRATULATIONS! It sounds wonderful!

Thank you, all, for the good wishes! It's a project I'm happy to see initiated, and we'll record through January since there are a lot of singers and a ton of material. I'll bring back some more on Friday from the LoC.

I am packed, I've made my snack and lunch for the 3 and a half hour train ride, and I remembered to take along huge manila envelopes this time to hold the photocopies. I'm will have dinner tomorrow night with my friend Loras Schissel and I am really looking forward to that. I am hoping they're still recording LIFE BEGINS AT 8:40 tomorrow and that my former friend from the LoC who made the whole experience so dreadful is here in Manhattan at the sessions and not at the Library.

I forgot to pack my book! I'm reading a biography of the Australian opera star Dame Nellie Melba (1861-1931), who was an amazing woman.

And a tough old broad with a scandalous life. There's an Australian mini-series about her that I want to order from my fave Australian DVD source.

I spent the majority of the afternoon watching one of my favorite recent comedies: THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA. Always enjoy it so much every time I watch. It's one of the most beautifully cast movies in recent memory.

Have you seen the documentary i mentioned this week, THE SEPTEMBER ISSUE, that chronicles the real Devil Wears Prada, Anna Wintour? I think you would relaly like it.

Before I started cooking lunch, I watched last night's AMERICAN IDOL performances/judges remarks (I skip everything else). The best performances: Michael (by far), Lee (next by far), Casey, and Crystal. The rest ranged from bland (Aaron, Katie) to inept (Tim, Didi). And the judges gushing over Andrew? What was THAT all about? Yep, it was somewhat better than the prior weeks, but it was hardly a major rebound. Slightly better, more in control, but that's ALL it was.

I sort of agree with you. I thought Michael (who i don't normally care for) was excellent. And I also thought that crystal was her usual amazing self. And I thought lee was great. I used to love casey. But now he is just okay for me.

And even though didi has been hit and miss i still love her. Her voice is so unique. I really hope that she can pull it together in the future.

And you don't know if they are different from the ones in England? Do you have any British shops near you to compare?

I have some things in the office that require attention, and then I'll head down and do some evening viewing. I do know I want to rewatch THE HEIRESS tonight. If there's time, I'll watch GRAN TORINO. If not, I'll fill in with some TV box set episodes of NCIS or THE CLOSER or BONES until I tune into HUMAN TARGET.

WBBL.

Is this the Olive deHavilland HEIRESS? One of my all-time favorite movies! I think the play is great but I wasn't crazy about the revival with Cherry Jones. I did love Frances Sternhagen, though.

Yes, indeed, the 1949 movie.
