After skimming through AS THE WORLD TURNS, I ended my afternoon watching the first 20 minutes of last night's '24.' There was something wrong with my HDMI connection last night when I attepmted to start watching the show at about 9:20, and since I didn't want to stop the DVR and reboot it (for fear of missing stuff), I just let it go and jumped over to over-the-air HD to watch the last 40 minutes of the show. When I went to bed last night, I did reboot the cable box, and it was right as rain this afternoon so I could watch the first part of '24' which I had missed.

Glad I got to see it. It had Jack's meeting with President Cherry Jones and the reuniting of Agent Walker with her lover from the agency who thought she had been killed.

DR JRand58, did you ever get your DVDs of "Man of La Mancha" from various places? The vendor is having a good one-day sale at the moment.

Speaking of "Man of La Mancha," the third package that I received today was the book, Cardenio or the Second Maiden's Tragedy, attributed to William Shakespeare and John Fletcher. The main character, Cardenio (a.k.a. Govianus, the deposed King), is "a bizzarre character in Cervantes's Don Quixote," which was first published in England around the time that this play was written. I suggested this to TAO (the theater group with whom I've been working) as a possibility for their summer Shakespeare show. They like to do different things, and probably no one's heard of this.

Giants can be good.

And they still go ahead and kill her in the worst show Sondheim ever worked on!

We are very fond of this show. Of course that may be because Vixdad & I took both sets of parents to see it when his folks came to see us from England and we have such fond memories of that visit. Years later Vixdad's Mum sent me the DVD of the original cast and we watch it every year when we set up our tree. The Vixter loves it too.

We are all liable at a drop of the hat to start singing " Agony!!! Much more painful than YOURS!!!!!!'

Unless there are new fires - always a possibilty - we are out of harm's way unless we have a wind from the East. (Which would be most unusual).

The large fires are still burning in the hills. Yes they are alive!

Can Hieronymous Merkin Ever Forget Mercy Humppe And Find True Happiness

What ever became of this film? Why hasn't it ever been released onto home video?

I blame the lack on the film getting slapped with a X-rating.

R is acceptable. XXX is a sure sales-getter. A simple X - no one understands what that means. How can you sell a film that has but a single X?

It was one of Sondheim's longest Broadway runs but I think it's a pathetically bad show. I know I'm in the monority, but PHANTOM OF THE OPERA is still running, too, and it's dramatically worse than INTO THE WOODS.

It's also one of the noisiest productions ever: too much screaming and other nonsense on the DVD. Ugh.

Back from lunch....meatball soup, chicken parmesan (with mozzarella rather than parmesan!!!).

Most "whatever Parmesan" is made with a slice of mozzarella, and then a sprinkling of Parm on top. Mozzarella melts better, and gets those neat-o strings.

First BF was Dan A. I was 21 he was 25, he was in the National Guard and also worked as a bus driver. Dan was none too bright and spent most of his time cheating on me, but other then that he was a nice guy. We were off and on for about 2 years.

He still lives in Salem and I have run in to him a number of times over the years...but I have yet to see him sober.

Then I hope he isn't still driving a bus!

As for the Topic of the Day...

I had a few crushes in middle and high school, but my first boyfriend/relationship was with Steve. I was 30. We were together for three and a half years. The break-up did hurt, but was amicable - we had both just grown into different people. We're still close, good friends.

BK - I purchased my copy of the new release and dutifully listed the names of the shows in the Additional Comments space. However, Paypal bounced me through one extra step, so I am not sure the notes were still left intact.

Interesting! After I posted this, I suddenly thought that intact didn't look right. So, I did a word search on it and it came up saying, "Try also virginity." Now I really wonder if I used the wrong word!

Not a flake or fleck of parmesan in sight on either of those two thinly sliced, melted pieces of mozzarella. The sauce underneath the chicken was yummy, though.

I think "virginity" is well out of it in your case, DR TCB. "Intact" also means "whole" and applies to things other than anatomical parts.
