No, DR Jennifer, the first scene in MEDIUM was Allison waking up, laughing a bit, and then assuming she had gone home with this strange man for the evening. We only found out in bits and pieces that she was "Sandra," but there was no dream before she woke up.

And no on the second point you asked about as well. At that moment, it appeared foir a second that she was back to normal, but we didn't see her planning to trick him. The hospital called Joe to say that his wife was asking for him. and we thought she was well until we saw her sneaking away while he was filling out paperwork.

Next, I watched CSI: NY. Two interesting cases (a dead girl in a bathtub and a man whose sister claimed was killed during a robbery) with very unusual solutions. During the course of the investigations, Stella was exposed to HIV+ blood and now must wait for HIV tests to confirm if she's positive or not.

Justin Hartley, who played the Green Arrow so well on a lengthy story arc on SMALLVILLE earlier this season, played a nextdoor neighbor here, but it was a small part, and he was basically wasted.

Airlines are weird... And airline pricing is even weirder...

I just looked into flights to Atlanta again for the upcoming SETC auditions. When I checked out the flights in early January, there were running around $200. Then when I checked about two weeks ago, they were up to $280-300. -And that's when I found out that the ACC tournament is that same weekend, so... And then I just checked again now, and flights are coming up for just under $200 - and I can use my $75-off E-certificate.

Just weird. I'm glad the airfares came down again, but still...

*Of course, it doesn't really matter how much the flight costs since SETC is reimbursing me for the flight, but I also don't want to take advantage of SETC's offer.

And the KNIGHTS OF PROSPERITY had a fairly mild episode last night that had nothing to do with robbing Mick Jagger but rather trying to save female member Esperanza from the Colombian drug lord who was attracted to her.

Bobby Cannavale did a hilarious Colombian accent playing the criminal mastermind.

For you "Medium" fans, be sure to check out "Oprah" today. Her guests are John Edwards, and the "real life Medium", Alison Dubois.

It made me think...is this weird, or have other DR's chosen a song or two for their funeral? If so, what would they be?

I don't have a song picked out, but a couple of years ago, my sister bought me a burial plot for Christmas! My whole family (and my niece's father's family) are all going to be buried around each other.

I just have to share this...it was made by one of my Turner producers.

It's a tribute to our favorite crazy astronaut!

Left work a little early in order to make the final preparations for my book group. We're meeting here tonight to discuss Mozart's Women by Jane Glover. Yesterday I made a batch of Vienna Dream Bars and a German chocolate cake to serve along with the foil-wrapped Mozart-Herz'l candy hearts that I ordered from Vermont Country Store.

Methinks dear reader Jeanne means Stayin' Alive not Being Alive - I've never heard Mr. Sondheim's Being Alive as a disco song, although I'd like to.

There's always the disco Sweeney Todd.

Nope, retentive man that I am, I placed a couple of suggestions in my last wishes document. I did say that whoever arranges may play whatever they want (within reason) but I want two songs played, "Until I Met You (Corner Pocket)" from the Manhattan Transfer Mecca for Moderns album and "What Would I Do?" from Falsettoland. No matter how many times I've heard the song it still makes me cry.

I love both of these songs! I've thought that if I ever get married (when it's legal...and I have someone to marry

), I like "Until I Met You" to be our first dance.

I got the mother lode in the mail today; all of the DVDs I was waiting for arrived on the same day!

I think I may have time to watch A SHOCK TO THE SYSTEM tonight before the marathon of TV shows starts.

And, DR George, on the cover of the DVD, it says that there are two more of these movies planned for airing in 2007, so we will have two more of these mysteries to look forward to!

Heading down now to get the bedroom areas cleaned before settling in with an entertaining DVD.

I'm a little shocked that none of our bright hainsies/kimlets have answered the query in the notes - who came up with the name Milk Duds and why?

I have delivered pages and shall now try to write for a bit. I got two Ozu DVDs today, neither of which I've seen, so that's tonight's viewing.

According to THIS article on wikipedia.org (which got its information from the official Hershey's Milk Duds page):

"1928: Milton J. Holloway took over F. Hoffman & Company of Chicago, the original manufacturer of MILK DUDS chocolate covered caramels."

And...

"According to the manufacturer, the word "Milk" in the name refers to the large amount of milk in the product and the word "Duds" came about because the original aim of having a perfectly round piece was found to be impossible."

I know not of Milk Duds.

In 1928, Milton J. Holloway took over F. Hoffman & Company of Chicago, the original manufacturer of Milk Duds chocolate covered caramels.

The Milk Duds name came about because the original idea was to have a perfectly round piece. Since this was found to be impossible, the word "duds" was used. The word "milk" was used to reflect the large amount of milk in the product.
