So Carley Simon has fessed up that David Geffen was the actual inspiration for "You're So Vain".  That revelation was incredibly disappointing...

I had to step out to pay my Verizon bill and it's beautiful out. On my block, all the trees are outlined in white with so much snow, and the air is bright, clear and cool. However, the street corners are a mess of slushy puddles, wading pools, and piles of snow.

Now I have to figure out where Mr Kevin Spirtas can be! I've sent him a couple of emails but I've gotten no response.

I could use some shoulder vibes.  During my early evening exercises yesterday I suddenly had terrible sharp/knife like shooting pains.  The shooting pains stopped when I stopped the exercises.  I'm still having more pain than usual & can't do my exercises as the sharp pain begins again.  Can't might not be the correct word, I'm certainly concerned if I should.  I hope the therapist can help me today & that he isn't concerned.

I very much enjoy Mr Korbich singing on the EATING RAOUL cast album.

I also really like him on "Casino Paradise" and especially "The Gifts of the Magi."

DVR: Last nights SURVIVOR

Are you cheering for the villains or the heroes? For some reason since my favorite player is on the villains (boston rob) i find myself cheering for them!

Most of those on the Villains side are people I have despised in the past, so I am most definitely rooting for the Heroes. Individually, I am rooting for Colby and Tom.

[Jane]

MBarnum, how are you feeling today?

[Jane]

Thank you George.

DR Jane, my throat feels a tad better, but a lot of coughing. I stayed home from work today and am hoping that I feel good enough to babysit little Cole tonight for my neice and her husband. I think that if I take a couple of naps I will be fine.

So far all I have done is sit around watching ADAM 12. BK will be happy to know that there is A LOT of location filming in the valley and even near the beach.

I slept really late - 10:30 - but have been dealing with e-mails since arising.

do they want you to watch Cole if you are contagious, or did you catch this from him?

DR John G - I'll be down in Lexington next week for SETC. I'm going to try to make a quick day trip to Louisville - I need my Galt House fix.

And have you picked out a place in Lexington where we can have dinner on Wednesday evening?

Too much Toyland angst today, as well as fallout from LIFE BEGINS. The major problem with the Toyland project is too much working at cross purposes, and I'm perplexed and a bit pissed that work I'm now trying to correct was made last week with no commnication to me about it's been assigned and finished. Oy!

Drunk Duane called and had what sounds like his grandmother leave a message for Mary to call back.

I stopped by T-Mobile to see if they would help me with this, since it is one of their customers bothering me. They declined to help, but said I should file a police report. I think our police force has enough to do without petty things like this.

MARIMBA HEALING VIBES THAT ARE BOLDER TO BOLDER

[Matt H.]

CNBC and MSNBC are both showing Olympics during part of their broadcast days (or they were; I haven't checked in a couple of days), but I was VERY disappointed that NBC didn't at least show the next-to-top tier of girls. The girl from Switzerland who inched out Rachael Flatt for 6th was in that flight, and I would like to have had a chance to compare their long programs.

And I was MOST interested in seeing how badly Carolina Kostner (the current European champion) skated to fall from 7th to 16th.

Dear Jane, hope your shoulder feels better!

New house KEY vibes for the DR JMK clan.

New 'Who' sets U.S. airdate

The 'Doctor' is in starting April 17, 2010

I got a surprise today.

I filed my taxes on January 31st (filed electronically) I just got a letter from the IRS telling me that they found a credit I neglected to take. They figured out the tax for me and increased my refund.

This is a new credit, one that I hadn't even heard of, called the Making Work Pay Tax Credit. It's temporary and it adds $400 to my refund. I never heard of it but I looked over my taxes again and it's OK with me so I get more money than I planned on getting. I thought when I saw the letter I had made a mistake and would need to file an amended return. Lucky me, it's not that at all!

[Ben]

New York is quiet and snowy. The sidewalks are clear in my neighborhood but we live on a side street and they haven't been plowed yet so we can walk along the sidewalks but the cars are driving through snow and slush.

Laundry is done, I got a bigger refurn and I had a snow day from work. It's been a good day.

[Matt H.]

When I went down, I was able to watch the skating from last night interrupted when I did my errands but I got to see everything before I went to lunch. Some observations:

Only Rachael Flatt, Kim Yu-Na, and Marai Nagasu skated completely clean programs. I found it interesting that Rachael was downgraded on her two triple flips when none of the other skaters were downgraded on what were OBVIOUS partially rotated jumps. The eight points she lost would have had her in 4th place with Marai in 5th and Miki Ando in 6th. I think that particular strict judge eased up after Rachael skated. I KNOW all of those other jumps were not fully rotated, and Rachael's looked much better landed, at least at the vantage point of the NBC cameras.

I thought Joannie had a lovely skate, but if she had been able to skate a completely clean program, she would have won silver just like at last year's world championships.

Yu-Na skated a majestic and difficult program, but I still don't quite see the magic. Maybe I'll get it after I've watched it a few more times. She's effortless and beautiful, but I don't get the same thrill I got when watching Michelle Kwan at her best. Maybe I'm just getting too old and it's all too familiar now (or it could be the change in the judging system which now makes everyone's programs too much alike.)

I was impressed with Mao Asada's two triple axels in her program, but it was otherwise rather lockstep and mechanical; of course, that just made the memory of Yu-Na's performance that much more ethereal.

Right now, Rachael Flatt has a more difficult program of jumps, but she needs to work some on style. Marai Nagasu has lots of style (especially for 16) and just needs to increase the difficulty in her program so that in four years, she'll be the one they're all chasing.

[Matt H.]

Lunch ran very late, so it ended up being a quick lunch because I needed to get back to start on my work project. It was also BITTERLY cold when I went out on my errands. The wind made it feel 10 degrees colder than it probably was, and it was a miserable set of errands going in and out of the cold, but I'm glad to have it over and done for another week.

[Matt H.]

When I got back, I had another review disc waiting for me - the Blu-ray of OLD DOGS with John Travolta and Robin Williams. It doesn't come out until the 9th of March, so it went in the pile, and I'll do it after I finish my current project.

Oooh!!!

"The first-ever film version of Lewis Carroll's tale has recently been restored by the BFI National Archive from severely damaged materials. Made just 37 years after Lewis Carroll wrote his novel and eight years after the birth of cinema, the adaptation was directed by Cecil Hepworth and Percy Stow, and was based on Sir John Tenniel's original illustrations. In an act that was to echo more than 100 years later, Hepworth cast his wife as the Red Queen, and he himself appears as the Frog Footman. Even the Cheshire cat is played by a family pet.

With a running time of just 12 minutes (8 of which survive), Alice in Wonderland was the longest film produced in England at that time. Film archivists have been able to restore the film's original colours for the first time in over 100 years."

Alice in Wonderland (1903)

This was pretty darned cool!
