And the word of the day is: FRACTIOUS!"You sure like to collect FAT CURIOS, don't you! And they need dusting!" Sarah pointed out to her genteel aunt in her usual FRACTIOUS manner.
. I have to think about a holiday arrangement of a David Friedman song for the New York City Gay Men's Chorus
Which song? I think FRiedman is a great lyricist and/or composer.The Truth About Christmas
A question for Elmore: How many musicians are you planning for in the Brain score? I've noticed that a lot of the cast recordings of late have a pit with just five members, jacked up by some great choral work by the cast where appropriate.
In every conversation, including those held yesterday, she has opinions, oh yes she has opinions. And she made clear that she has opinions. The sad thing is, she has absolutely no respect for other people's opinions, because she only allows herself the right to be right.
I am delighted about PRESENTING LILY MARS and BEST FOOT FORWARD, of course, but sad to see that some worthwhile films like SUNRISE AT CAMPOBELLO didn't get on the list.
I also had a wacky dream last night and I know exactly what cause it. I was watching (actully I was channel surfing and it caught my eye) a "reality" program earlier in the day and was quite surprise that a channel like Showtime was airing it.
Since this is a family sight I can't really explain what I saw....
Can't you even give a hint?? ;)
Today I will finally get to the MONK episode that's caused some discussion here.
I will say that like so many shows that have eccentric characters (I'm thinking THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES specifically), as time goes on, the staff writers exaggerate all their eccentricities for the sake of the comedy, and the result is always characters that don't resemble live people in any way....
:o GEORGE!!! :o
So, today's a round of Toyland and nuns...
Our seats were to the far right. Naturally, anything that was stage right and behind the proscenium was blocked from our view.
PRESENTING LILY MARS? Isn't that the TV series about the teenager who solves crimes with her father?I beleive it is based on Tab Hunter's book, STILL.[/size]
We are out of tissues (Kleenex is, after all, copyrighted) and I must get a box or two for my sick spouse.
Quite possible that VERONICA MARS was based on the book, but PRESENTING LILY MARS was based on a book by Booth Tarkington.
Cillaliz, I hope you enjoy the performance of Bonnie Raitt and whoever the other entertainer you are seeing.
I will be absent this afternoon, because I am off to the local theater's annual dinner. For some strange reason, this dinner in the last two years, has morphed into a barbecue. It is fun, but missing is that once a year glitz and glamour that I always hated until I was forced into it; but always looked back on fondly.

Emmy Awards TCB:
Is Ben Casy up against Dr Kildare again?
I'm still hoping for a win for Adventures in Paradise.
Well, someone better be watching the EMMYs and reporting on same.
I've felt that way about MONK for some time, and feel the same way about PSYCH. Both shows have interesting premises, and sometimes ingenious ideas for plots, but way too much shtick.
Yes, and if Bonnie's father, John, is in the audience, give him a HHW.com shout from all of us (or go up to him and give him a hug).
Of course Cillaliz would have to travel a long, long way to give John Raitt a hug since if he is watching, and perhaps he is, it would be from the heavens or wherever handsome old baritones go after they are deceased.Our Cillaliz can do anything!

Candice Bergen wore a gown that redefines why everyone should own a wide-screen television.
DR SWoody, I have found that the best way to deal with folks like this is to say, "Okay," and let them think they've won. You won't win, even though you are right. It saves time and frustration.
When "Three's Company" started, Susan Sommers' character was just a ditzy blonde. Not the brightest bulb in the chandelier, but still, a "real" character. As the series went on, she morphed into a caricature that was so far from a realistic persona, that I totally lost interest in the entire show.
Still have 13 posts before we get past the all-time low. Here's one.
I watched the Emmy's, not to bad and kudos to everyone who actually got it to end on time. I really liked Conan's opening bits, both pre-taped and live. Overall I thought he did a great job of hosting. Dick Clark's appearance was nice. The original Charlie's Angels tribute to Aaron Spelling was lovely. And I enjoyed the bit with Bob Hope. I hope that doesn't give anything away.
Here are the lyrics to my favorite Keb Mo song of the night. It's a sweet song with very pleasant acoustic guitar. The woman cheered like crazy for it
You don't need no fancy tricks
Painted eyes or glossy lips
I love you just the way you are
Hope you don't mind my beat up car
You don't need to change your dress
You don't need to change your shoes
Don't try to hide your natural looks
Forget about the cover let me read the book
Don't get me wrong I like them heels
But the way I feel is the way I feel
You don't need to change your dress
You don't need to change your shoes
Go ahead be wild and free
You don't have to shave your legs for me
Shave Yo' Legs~Keb' Mo'
