I'm between a rock and a hard place at the moment since my scedule is based on DR MBarnum's flight. I called his cell phone and left a message, which I hope means it was turned off when he boarded the plane. I spoke to DR Ginny, and she and Richard rebooked their train to a 10:30 one out of Union Station. Hopefully, the four of us will neet at the box office to CURTAINS at 5:00 to pick up the houseseats before heading to Grand Central.

Well... I have a hopefully short audition session to play at Noon, so I should get ready now. If any plans should drastically change, just give my cell a call (DR elmore, singdaw, MBarnum, Ginny, etc.).

Laters...

DR MBarnum is going to be one tired puppy! We may find him face down in his chicken tandoori...

Did he send you the flight info? or at least the airline? If you have the airline, you should be able to do a flight search on the airline's website based on the departure and arrival cities. Yes, some other options may show up, but you might be able to see just how delayed the flights out of Portland have been this morning.

Hmmmm this will take some thought....

TOTD:
I am more a fan of diabolical baddies than ones from the action features. I do have to agree with the comments about Alan Rickman. He does make a great baddie anyway you look at it. I have seen several things where Rickman was the baddie and he is good.

From Doctor Who (cheesy villains i know but really..) The Master played by Anthony Ainsley and the Daleks

The soaps have had a few good classic baddies : (I will only give the character name right now for the actor's name escapes me at the moment)
Mitch Laurance - OLTL
Stephano DiMera (Classic Days 1980-1991) - Jospeh Mascolo
Helena Cassadine (Classic GH)

I have to give Matt AShford a kudo here. He played a serial killer as a short run role on OLTL in 2004 named Stephen Haver. Matt was downright creepy to say the least and sinister.

Villain of bad taste....
Many of the script writers today... James E. Reilly is the main one - horrid, horrid writer.

Theatre:
The Chlldren's Hour -- excellent play!
The Bad Seed

I will probably think of more later...

In the Totally Useless Trivia department, since MATTH has been watching a lot of MURDER SHE WROTE I will mention that one of my family members was in the crew on that show. They all think VERY highly of Ms Lansbury, I might add.

TV GUIDE did a survey back in the late 80s-early 90s of TV productions, and Angela Lansbury came out #1 as far as confidential comments on her professionalism, loyalty, consideration, etc. I've rarely heard much of anything negative spoken about her.

JetBlue, Portland OR to JFK!

elmore3003 · « **Reply #130 on:** June 28, 2007, 08:16:28 AM »

Flight 166 is due to land at JFK around 12:43 pm. My first tracking, but definitely not my first stalking.

Ben · « **Reply #131 on:** June 28, 2007, 08:18:16 AM »

According to JetBlue's Web site MB's plane departed at 4:45am (Portland time I assume) and is scheduled to land at JFK at 12:43. No other information is available

I just got off the phone with MusicGuy. I'm about to have lunch with him at Wai Cafe.

Later, gaters.

I just had a scare. I couldn't find my set of guest keys, so I thought maybe I could rig a rope to the fire escape for DR MBarnum who would have to climb down it holding his luggage in his teeth. However amusing I thought it could be for the neighbors, I decided to keep looking. I just found them.

I always had this image of MBarnum as the kind of guy who'd travel with a backpack.

Another delusion shattered!

DR MAttH: Regarding your query as to what other titles Fox might put in a Bette Davis box -- "Payment on Demand".

They might also repackage "Hush, Hush Sweet Charlotte" and "The Nanny" for such a box.
