Good morning, all!

I slept very poorly, following the huge explosion last night over an email I sent as a reply to a colleague that pissed off another person. The other person then sent me an email beginning "who the f**k are you to answer my question like that?"  Since, to my knowledge, I hadn't had any email from this person yesterday or answered any question of his, i was completely puzzled by the attack. I still am. So, that began a round of unpleasant emails that kept me awake longer than I would have liked and ended what I thought was a good friendship.  It doesn't make me happy.

So, I'm lying low today. I will meet at some point today with my colleague Curtis over the ROBERTA scores and what needs to be accomplished in preparing this recording. I will finish my chart for Act Two.

Looks like the DVD market is now forcing customers to purchase Blu-Ray discs or suffer. I dislike intensely being pressured to purchase new equipment  but the search for a nonregional blu-ray player has begun.

I've very sorry about your e-mail attack, Larry. :(

As for the DVD/Blu-ray crap, the library where I work is having the same problem.  We don't buy Blu-ray titles, even if the DVD/Blu-ray combo pack is the only way to get the title.  I have to try and find an Amazon market seller who only has the DVD and get them that way.

:P I say.

The (non-Equity, I'm sure) tour is coming to the Washington Center for the Performing Arts, here in Olympia next year. 

I'll usher for it. ::)

I apologize for being E & T all day yesterday.  Nicky had a medical crisis yesterday morning.  Fortunately, I was able to press mys sister into service to take my to the Vet.  We both came home yesterday afternoon and we both crashed for the rest of the afternoon and part of the evening.

~~~Vibes for DC Nicky!!~~~

I think I really need to watch E.T. someday. Not sure how it is that I've missed it all of these years.

I haven't even seen the Bollywood version yet!
Now I'd like to see a Bollywood version.

There are some significant plot changes. :-\

I wonder who played BK's role. ;)

Back from a delightfully delightful lunch with Miss Alet Taylor.  Also sitting nearby was Lloyd Schwartz (son of Sherwood, creator of Gilligan's Island) and actor Jerry Houser.

We have arrived in Richfield, a southern 'burb of Cleveland, OH.  We had several stops to make on our way out of town and we stopped for a nice lunch just north of Columbus.  We went to Lehman's, a self-sufficiency outfitter in Amish country and to the Smucker store in Orrville.  I think we'll just walk to the jernt next door for dinner and call it an early night.

Finessing mixes is starting earlier than planned - at five-thirty.  That's good - we'll finish earlier.

Finished writing an opening number for one of the upcoming Outside The Box episodes - I'd written the other two numbers last February, but wasn't happy with not having something to open with to set the tone as it were.  I got the idea for this about two months ago, and even got the tune for the first four lines - then I finished the lyric but couldn't figure out how to set it correctly, until I figured out that the form of it was not right.  I added three lines before the first four lines and that fixed that, then I rearranged the lines after the first four lines, cut them down and now it all works splendidly and the music came very quickly.  I sent it off to the guy who transcribes and does the piano tracks so hopefully he'll get to it shortly and this will be one of the two we shoot in three weeks.

DR JohnG, here is the trailer which may or may not make you want to watch it. The child in E.T. is changed to a mentally challenged young man in India's version.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBpZH-CFgZ0



It was a super hit in India, but like E.T., I guess it never interested me enough to get around to watching it. But, I am sure one day I will do so.



That's E.T.-LOL!!!

It has definitely lost the cuteness of the original which I think you might enjoy.

I think the trailer tones down the cuteness quotient so as to appeal to a wider audience, rather than kids. Bollywood movies usually have several different trailers, focusing on different aspects...action or drama or romance, etc. They like to cover all bases.
