Just watch "The Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson." He's Scottish.

No TV up here... but at some point, I would like to hear him. Thanks, anyway, for the suggestion.

What's even more alarming - and not a dream - is that I've run out of Trader Joe's apple slices (not quite dried and totally yummy -- and healthy) which, coupled sometimes with sesame pretzel bits, are my latest snack addiction. Haven't got time to make a TJ's run to get them -- and they're often out of them anyway.
Not one of life's tragedies, true - but to be apple-less leaves me no treat reward at the end of a hard day's writing. Sigh....

Been there, meself! In fact, I'm there - here - now!!

Actually it was organized by the GS Coordinator for our town, she has run the last two , both of which were wonderful. The catering hall we used the past three years was unavailable and so she chose this restaurant which we had used for several years running and it had been quite pleasant, so I cannot fault her for the bad food and service. I am considering a strongly worderd letter to the management of the restaurant however.

I understand that she was trying to do something "different" but I thought (as did many of the other mothers) that the "fashion show" was in addition to the regular music. Nobody was happy with that and Iam sure she is hearing plenty about that today.

The whole basket raffle thing has me completely perplexed however. The troops donated all the stuff so where was the money going?

"I am sorry, the GS Coordinator is unavailale to take your complaints today. If you would like to leave a message, she will try to get in touch with you when she returns from her three month tour of Europe."

I am home this afternoon. I had a root canal this morning, and I laughed (Oh yes, I laughed) when my co-workers said that I probably would not be back when it was finished. I was sure that I had a root canal before, but I guess not. OH MY GOSH!!! I feel like Dustin Hoffman after Larry Olivier got through doing his dental work! I took some pain pills and I thought I had better try and eat something so I wouldn't upset my stomach. Unfortunately, all the soup keeps dribbling out of the side of my mouth.

Are you sure the root canal didn't go a little TOO deep?

Did the dentist perhaps simultaneoulsy perform your hip replacement surgery?

I saw in the listings that LOST does go past the hour tonight, so if you record, better add a minute or two extra.

I have had two root canals in my life and both happened while I rehearsing for shows. The first was during A CHORUS LINE (the second time I did it), and the second was during FOREVER PLAID. In both cases, I had the surgeries in the morning, and I was at rehearsal that night. I really was surprised I wasn't as floored by them as other friends of mine had been when they had them.

Matt H. · « **Reply #74 on:** May 10, 2006, 01:16:57 PM »

Oh, boy, DR Jennifer, are you in for a treat with VERONICA MARS! Superb season ending episode, and I didn't get the murderer correct. At one point during the season, I was suspicious of this person, but I got sidetracked on something else and focused my attention elsewhere.

Let me say that there is one shock after another during the episode, so be prepared!

Matt H. · « **Reply #75 on:** May 10, 2006, 01:18:03 PM »

SCRUBS had a reasonably funny/silly episode. Still no official word that it's been renewed, but NBC would be very foolish to throw away one of the few decent comedies currently in production on ANY network.

Matt H. · « **Reply #76 on:** May 10, 2006, 01:20:08 PM »

I enjoyed BOSTON LEGAL, too. James Spader had a marvelous tour de force closing oration near the end that demonstrates again why Emmy voters keep selecting him for Best Actor Emmys (two in the past two years).

I missed not seeing Mark Valley much in this episode, but Parker Posey was a funny addition to the team.

Well, if someone else drove me to rehearsal, I probably could go, too. Sadly, I am not in a show anyway, so I can just sleep.

I then pulled out a movie I've never seen before. MAMMY starring Al Jolson. This was Jolson's fourth talkie, and the laserdisc transfer shows the film to be in very rough shape. Lots of scratches that last for entire reels and nirate damage to the image that runs down the center. The two-strip Technicolor sequence was only in black and white (though supposedly the Technicolor footage has been located now). but this is the film where Jolson introduced Irving Berlin's "Let Me Sing and I'm Happy" among other tunes. I have a little more to go to finish it, but it's nice seeing him in something other than THE JAZZ SINGER.

Matt H. · « **Reply #79 on:** May 10, 2006, 01:26:30 PM »

I have this to finish and then FALLEN ANGEL to finish as well.

DR TCB - I'm sorry you had to have a root canal today. After my first one, I said, "Never again!"

Thanks, Ginny! I told the dentist if he ever wants to schedule me for another root canal, he had better come up with a different name for it, because I would not show up

Why is everyone wondering what I'm talking about. Go to the "calendar" icon, click, and look at today's date. One of you wise guys tell me what it says in plain English.

Don't try and give ME the gaslight treatment, baby.
