Well, you've read the notes, the notes were plastered with mustard, and now it is time for you to post until the plastered cows come home.
-
And the word of the day is: PARSIMONIOUS!
-
Belated birthday greetings to bk!!
I hope you had a lovely day and you dont look a day past 30!
-
I was not overly impressed with DaVinci Code. It is not a bad movie but I liked the book far better.
-
Happy Birthday Ginny!!
I hope you have a lovely day filled with surprises!
-
The oddest thing I saw advertised was the Ronco buttoneer....
-
DR Laura, what sort of wildlife preserve did you go to?
-
Sunday morning I went to Bolsa Chica preserve, and this is what I saw:
-
I want you to know that I took 35 photos to get that picture of the tern.
-
Beautiful picture.... You sound like me when I write sometimes... .35 lines to get to the perfect line!
Still you have a true gem among those 35 pics!
-
DakotaCelt, on Saturday at sunrise, I was at Cibola Wildlife Refuge on the Arizona/California border, where they plant crops to attract snow geese and sandhill cranes.
Sadly, they allow hunting on the refuge, which doesn't make sense to me. I heard many gunshots while I was there.
-
Then today I was at a restoration project in Huntington Beach, which is where I saw the tern and some brown pelicans, among other things.
-
Here is a kestrel I saw this morning:

The reserve sounds lovely but not hte gunshots. I also agree with you and it does not make sense to me either as to why they are allowing hunting there.
-
beautiful bird!!
btw, is that you in your avvie dear? You look far too young to be the age you have in your profile ;-)
-
I still look just like that. Really.
-
Jeez, you leave this board for an evening and everyone welcomes you!
Thanks to all who have left a nice little welcoming comment (and yes, Sandra, I DO like Cherry Coke - it has just been quite a while since I've had one, in fact).
bk - The pictures are amazing! Are they courtesy of Ksenia's husband? I got a chance to talk with him this evening at Steve Maradian's Holiday Shindig - and he was talking about pictures he took, so naturally I wondered if these were some of them. And the Brain Tap picture made me literally laugh out loud. Too bad I wasn't in the audience Saturday night......
Glad you got home safe DR elmore (as well as our other DR's who are/will be traveling here soon)!
-
Another (I think this is a whimbrel, but I've never seen one before.)
-
Welcome, Dear Reader Cason. You were wonderufl last night. I really enjoyed the show.
-
I still look just like that. Really.
Amazing, you have discovered the fountain of youth dear... No botox or face lifts!!
Cute picture!
-
By the way, any good vibes for Alet (who plays Yoni in BPX), Lauren (who plays Joyce in BPX), and I (who meanders around the stage in BPX) appearing on tomorrow's Skip E. Lowe's show talking about said BPX would be much appreciated! I am sure it will be something!
-
Interesting bird DR Laura, i have never seen one before...
DR CAson, nice to see a new person join this lively place...
-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Interview vibes for tomorrow!
-
good vibes to one all for the interview tomorrow and for continued show vibes!
-
The Huntington Beach dog beach, where canines are welcome:
-
DR Laura, it just dawned on me, it has been almost a year since I discovered HHW....
I believe I first posted in early January before Deceit opened.
-
I figured this was far too fun of a party not to join in...
And happiest of birthday vibes for DR Ginny! This has certainly been the week for birthdays, hasn't it? March must have been quite the cold month...
-
Lovely beach, it looks inviting!
-
Message for DR Kerry, in case he checks in:
I really missed you, Kerry. I had to sit by myself in a room full of old people this afternoon, then I had to drive home all alone.
Someone else missed you too and asked about you.
-
There is always St. Patrick's day in March!
-
I looked at the calendar and there are several more December birthdays coming up also.
-
An Oz Welcome to New DR Cason.
-
I see we have hopped to page 2!
-
DR Laura -- Thanks for coming to see the show! It was a bit of a tough crowd, but that sure didn't stop us from having a blast up on stage! I am glad you got to see it before BPX hits it big! ;)
-
I would like to see the show but I live in the hinterlands of North America...
-
Page 2 and it is only 44 minutes into the new day (at least by my watch)!
Thanks for the warm welcome, DR Tomovoz! How are things down under today?
-
G'day DR Tom!
-
Happy Birthday, DR Ginny!!!
-
BK, it seems that every time I come out there, you are dieting or jogging to get into shape. That's why I don't usually bring any sweets for you -- I don't want to sabbotage your efforts.
-
DR Laura -- You didn't tell me you were from Arizona!
Before I made the trek out here to Hollywood, I spent 8 of my formative years up in Prescott, where my parents schlepped out here from to see the show this past weekend.
-
Happy Birthday DR Ginny
(Apologies for no pic -- upload folder full)
-
Down Under is still ablaze with bush fires. Please send rain.
-
Yes, MusicGuy and I both are from Arizona. We spoke with your parents last night. We discussed the proper pronunciation of "Prescott."
-
Emily and Alice arrived in OZ today. Thanks BK.
-
(Apologies for no pic -- upload folder full)
Oops. Did I do that???
-
And Good Evening Dakota. (It's Nearly 8.00pm Monday here).
Thanks as always for the pics DearReader Laura
-
Tomovoz, I heard about the fires on the news a couple days ago. I know how bad it is when there's no rain for a long time.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Rain vibes. I know you really need them!
-
Oops. Did I do that???
We can't really blame Jose!
-
Ah, yes, the ever-raging debate. Pres-"cot" or Pres-"kit"...not to be confused with a "press kit," of course.
-
I think the State will be burning for the next two months! It's been over 20 years since our piece of heaven was turned to Ash - and it is still a very fresh memory.
-
Rain vibes for DR Tomozov and all other the other Down Underlings!
-
I don't expect the rain to come from Arizona Dear Reader Laura. I'm hoping that the NW can spare some!
-
"All other the other Down Underlings" ?! Maybe it is time for some more sleep...
-
Thank you. It was close to "110 in The Shade" yesterday. Rainmaker needed. I'd be quite happy if Robert Horton visited!
-
I think the underlings are in NZ - usually called Hobbits. But thank you for the sentiments.
-
"My" friendly crimson rosellas are at the window asking to be fed!
-
I am so tired, but I had too much Starbucks to sleep now.
It amazes me how close together cars and trucks get on the freeway and how fast they go. It is quite scary.
-
I'm wondering when Cason's mom is going to begin posting. She reads us every day. We hope she joins in soon.
-
Time for me to find a DVD to watch! Goodnight all.
-
Good morning and a very happy birthday to our very own DR Ginny! I hope you have a funtastic day! :)
Welcome to new DR Carson, always nice to meet someone new. You are now posting on the best board on the internet. Truely you will never find a nicer group of people.
Wonderful photos, DearReaderLaura! I think you've posted it before but I forgot--what kind of camera are you using? I love my new Casio camera but am a bit disapointed with it. It has a 3x zoom but I can't seem to get the kind of picuture I could with my old camera.
It might be that I don't have the setting right. I keep pouring over the instruction manual but still am not happy. I don't think would be able to get the close up shots of Michael Ball like I got with the old camera if I were in the same situation.
-
Safe travel vibes to all who need them!
Thank you all for the good wishes about my health. I do seem to be much better except for this cough that I can't seem to shake. It's bad in the morning after I first get up but as the day wears on it goes away.
The people on the bus think I have the plague and I never seem to have a problem with getting a seat to myself. That's both good and bad. Sigh.
-
Page 3 dance!
Let's do the Pony!
-
Almost to my stop.
Has anyone heard from DR Jane? I hope all is well with her and trip. When will she be home?
Have a wonderful day all!
-
Ah, yes, the ever-raging debate. Pres-"cot" or Pres-"kit"...not to be confused with a "press kit," of course.
I always thoughe it was Pre- Scott.
-
Three pages first thing in the morning! Is that some kind of record?
-
I remember medines like "Carter's Little Liver Pill" which if memories was cod liver oil. But it might have been other medicine they advertised.
Does anyone still take cod liver oil? And what exactly does one take it for?>
-
BK:
Tom from Oz says that the uploads are full. Is it possible to transfer some of them to the photo album part of the website?
-
Ginny-HAPPY BIRTHDAY-HAVE A GREAT DAY!
The NIH has a computer I can use for a few minutes to wish you a happy day.
-
Hi Cason-WELCOME!. I'm sorry I missed your arrival.
-
elmore, glad to see you made it home safely.
I had a very good visit with my friends in PA. DC is a beautiful city. Tonight I'll have dinner with my PA friend's son & girlfriend. Tomorrow night I'm going to Jose's show. Wednesday I will finally tour the Library of Congress, and if I'm very lucky have lunch with Jose.
Danise, glad you are improving. Coughs can be very difficult to get rid of. Healthy vibes!
-
Tomovoz-RAIN VIBES! And since I'll be traveling home on the 14th,
WISHES FOR A BIRTHDAY!
-
Cason-We were tempted to move to Prescott, until we discovered Ashland & made it our home.
-
HAPPIEST OF BIRTHDAYS TO DR GINNY!!!
-
Jane,
Tell Jose hi and that he is missed here at HHW
-
I'm off to work. I was up last night with a terrible headache and still have it a bit. I have to drive about 5 hours today and it's very foggy. Both my head and outside. Better get going...
-
Good morning, all! I have to run to the Post Office and pick up 10 days of mail. It's like the Wells Fargo Wagon comin' in! It's like Christmas! Packages, magazines, and bills! All I need is a song cue.
So, today, I need to trek to Toyland for Act Two edits, and thern I have a ton of laundry. The aftermath of the glamorous Life is the not-so-glamorous-life, I guess. TGonight is the New York City Gay Men's Chorus concert, and I should go since I have several arrangements in the program, but I may just stay home and read 10 days' worth of mail. That seems more fun to me for the nonce.
Tomorrow afternoon, I have the memorial service for my beloved Barnard Hughes, and I look forward to seeing his widow Helen Stenborg, a lady I've loved since I saw her in Lanford Wilson's FIFTH OF JULY.
Time to go, but first . . .

I was very happy with the final three placements. They finished in the exact order i wanted them to finish.
I wish that there was more room for skill in the final episode. So much is left up to luck.
I was mad that rob and kim managed to get on that last flight before the models (even though the models were there first). I would not have liked them to win that way.
I also did not like how rob and kim made their taxi follow the models.
Who knew the winners would win based on getting on a flight at the last minute and an EZ pass!

Monday morning greetings!
Thank you for the birthday greetings, BK and DRs:
DakotaCelt

DearReaderLaura
Tomovoz
Danise
Jane (glad to hear your trip's going well)
Cillaliz
Elmore (thanks for the email greeting, too!)

We have a Christmas shopping errand to do in Cincinnati this afternoon, then dinner at that restaurant chain where DR Cillaliz had a bad experience recently. I'd requested my birthday dinner there before that. Tonight, my AAUW branch has their annual craft & talent auction - that's what I made the coffee cakes for yesterday.
-
And the word of the day is: PARSIMONIOUS!
Casey would waltz
With a strawberry blonde
In celebration of DR Ginny's birthday -
And not feeling PARSIMONIOUS they also danced the Hokey-Pokey, the Twist, and something they called the Tapioca!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DR GINNY!
-
For you fans of TAR, here's an article that was in yesterday's Cincinnati Enquirer about
The Linz Family (http://news.enquirer.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20061210/ENT/612100324/-1/all)
-
Thank you, DR SWW!
-
I think the State will be burning for the next two months! It's been over 20 years since our piece of heaven was turned to Ash - and it is still a very fresh memory.
There are, of course, plants whose seeds need a good toasting from fire to germinate. While I wish you rain to put out your fires, the wild blooms next spring should be spectacular.
Silver lining thinking.
-
Happy B'day to Ginny!
-
...I had a very good visit with my friends in PA. DC is a beautiful city. Tonight I'll have dinner with my PA friend's son & girlfriend. Tomorrow night I'm going to Jose's show. Wednesday I will finally tour the Library of Congress, and if I'm very lucky have lunch with Jose.
...
Good to know you're travelling well, DR Jane! Tell DR Jose to get his silky buns back over here!!!
-
The doggies always get testy when I have a day off, such as today. Little Mikey in particular gets impatient for me to get up, and then Buster insists on giving me my morning face washing (I do belong to him, after all), followed by Bonnie and Marty... although Bonnie spends more time washing everyone else's face than mine.
So I get up and get them their breakfast of doggie biscuits. (Fletcher insists on staying with der B, although he does come and get me if I don't deliver his by hand.)
They never pest der Brucer for their morning goodies.
They also have their own places where they have breakfast. Marty clambers onto my bed, Bonnie trots into the living room, Mikey dashes into the study, and Buster jumps up on der B's bed, leading to der B grumbling about the "crumb maker." Every day, the same routine.
Then, when I settle in here at the computer, Buster settles in near me, either close by or directly under the desk. As I noted, I am his property.
Today was interrupted by the appearance of a dark grey cat, spotted through the window. It's the same cat that der B met a couple of days ago, and I've identified it as the cat from the McGulag next door, left behind by the Russian students after their summer jobs were over. How the cat fares through the winter will be the question. So far, she looks healthy enough.
-
Thank you, DR Charles Pogue!
-
Good morning!
Another glorious day here, and it's not even that cold. High today in the low to mid 60s! Hooray!
-
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DR GINNY!

I tried to do a Page Four Disney Dance but I got the "upload folder full" error message.

I liked THE DAVINCI CODE much more than I thought I would. After the negative press at Cannes and lukewarm reviews from most of the reviews I read on-line, I was expecting something relatively drab and overlong. It held my attention from beginning to end, and I wasn't bored a second. In fact, I watched it a second time within a day of seeing it the first time and enjoyed the second viewing even more as more pieces of the puzzle seemed to fit together in my head.
I hadn't read the book ahead of time. I had read ANGELS & DEMONS which I thought was a grand adventure for about half the book and then began to fall apart and was totally ridiculous by the end.
-
I have some Christmas shopping I want to do, but I may wait to do it tomorrow morning when I go out to shop for some other things (DVDs that aren't released until tomorrow).
-
There's a cute sounding movie on tonight on A&E: WEDDING WARS with John Stamos and the ever-gorgeous Eric Dane. I will be at my OLIVER! audition tonight, so the DVR will have to get it, but depending on when I get home, I think I'd like to see it tonight.
The CBS comedies and CSI: MIAMI are also new episodes tonight.
-
Ok. I've really got to get started on this Christmas thing. You'd think that when it all starts in September I wouldn't be surprised when it starts to creep up. I guess I know when my postal worker DH has to start going in two hours early and stay late two hours every day, it's time to get busy! (That was today, by the way.)
-
Off to get cleaned up for my lunch with best friend John.
WBBL.

Hail to the Birthday Girl Valiant, Ginny!!!!!

Laura, when I was growing up my mother always refrained from any (visible) Christmas preparations until after my birthday, so as to keep my special day from being absorbed. I remind myself of that when I begin to get strung out over not having more done by Halloween or so.
-
TOD - One commercial I remember was really what today would be called a Public Service Announcement. It ran about this time of year and it was all about how aliens (people from other countries, not Planet X, I presume) had to register by January 1, or 15th, or 31st, or something like that. It had this creepy animation of an official-looking window (post office?) and paperwork crossing the counter, seemingly by itself. Any other baby boomers remember it?
-
A very happy birthday to the nicest gal in Ohio! DR Ginny!
Have a wonderful day!!

Thank you, DR MBarnum! Are you still in sunny California?

Over at another website, I've found a list of this year's twenty best food books (http://leitesculinaria.com/writings/features/best_2006.html). Sadly, DR Cillaliz's book honoring her mother is not included, something I can only attribute to her not being in the NYC-based foodie circles, which can be terribly inbred. :-\
Of the twenty, I have five. Heat, by Bill Buford, is waiting to be read. I enjoyed both The Reach of a Chef, by Michael Ruhlman, and The United States of Arugula, by David Kamp. Anthony Bourdain's The Nasty Bits was spotty, being a collection of writings that had been in magazines elsewhere, but he's still a dang good writer (he, of course, would use spicier language).
The Omnivore's Dilemma (Michael Pollan) is the book I've mentioned several times here before. Thoroughly thought-provoking, I find myself having to put it down frequently to ponder what I've just read. I highly recommend it.
It's interesting how all five of these books are not cookbooks, but rather writing about food.
If any of you have foodies on your Christmas gift list, the above might give you some ideas.
-
Ah, yes, the ever-raging debate. Pres-"cot" or Pres-"kit"...not to be confused with a "press kit," of course.
Up here we pronounce it press COTT...
-
I hadn't read the book ahead of time. I had read ANGELS & DEMONS which I thought was a grand adventure for about half the book and then began to fall apart and was totally ridiculous by the end.
I agree Matt, I also read Angels and Demons and felt the ending was a bit weak but still a very good read.
Have you read any of the works by Roddy Doyle?
-
I'm up, I'm up - grand night's sleep, too, a full nine hours.
I've sent Mr. Bakalor a request for a photo purge - he normally gets to it pretty quickly, so I'll alert the media when it's done.
-
I hadn't read the book ahead of time. I had read ANGELS & DEMONS which I thought was a grand adventure for about half the book and then began to fall apart and was totally ridiculous by the end.
I had read DaVinci Code ahead of time and was a bit let down by the movie.
I agree DR Matt, Angels and Demons started off great but washed out a bit in the end....
I tried posting this a bit earlier but got the dreaded "too many connections" error as I was posting.
-
"Good show Vibes" to bk and company!
BTW, bk, your daughter is a very lovely young lady!
-
I also watched The Da Vinci Code this weekend. It took me longer to watch the movie than to read the book, because I started falling asleep Friday night and had to wait until Saturday evening to finish it.
-
We should be able to post photos again within the hour.
-
I stopped in the cafeteria to get something to eat & had the most disgusting tofu I have ever had. I then went to the gift shop and purchased some delicious Virginia peanuts.
I'm going for a walk before my next text. They decided to skip my 1:00 "activiity" and I'm not complaining. :)
-
Bruce-Sounds like your birthday was everything you could hope for.
-
Morning's chores (doctor's apointment, visit to Trader Joe's for Peppermint Tea and a trip to the post office) are completed. I feel sorta relieved.
I have a chiropractic appt. at 2:30 p.m., and then I'm relatively "done" until my flight leaves Wednesday night.
Ack! So much time on my hands!!!
-
My time at the computer is up. I didn't notice one at the hotel. If I can I'll stop in tomorrow for a quick hello before I check out of here.
-
TNT has been airing the LOTR Trilogy. Night before last, they claimed to be airing the Extended Director's cut of "Fellowship of the Ring."
Maybe....but they trimmed it if they did. I think they basically lied about which version they were showing. The entire Lothlorien segment was the theatrical cut...not the extended cut.
-
The internet connection here at The Hollywood Orchid is rather wonky today...so I will post this while the posting is good...a huge thank you to all the wonderful HHW Happy Birthday wishes yesterday! Such a fine bunch of folk!
DR Cason, I do hope you will continue to post here...you will find such a nice group around these here parts...actors, writers, directors, librarians, state workers, social workers, palm readers, musicians....and on and on.
And Karen Murphy if you are reading this! I say howdy to you!!!!

Re: "Brothers and Sisters"
SPOILER
SPOILER
I'm gonna say this knowing full well I'm probably alone but two things irritated me GREATLY last night.
One was the Patty Wettig character "Holly"...I'm tired of her. Just tired of her. This family should NOT have to go through her or associate with her or have any more dealings with her for any reason.
The more irritating and annoying is this writer's conceit about the military service requirement for the brother with a drug addiction. The Army simply WOULD NOT want him back with his drug addiction. Period. They discharge soldiers for having addictions. They wouldn't want him back based on every rule/regulation that I've found.
That whole "let's fight the Armed Forces for recalling soldiers who've already served" arc is so lacking in credibility that it makes me ache that such a fine show has taken such a horribly wrong turn in its story development.
-
I am now checking out of the hotel and am going to stroll down to Larry Edmund's Books and Movie Memorabilia shop and then just hang out in Hollywood until I hear from Richard Harrison.
I will post from Salem, Oregon upon my return. I am eager to see Dog Bosco and Freddy the cat!!
-
Quinn Cummings is a regular blogger now and her blog can be found at http://qcreport.blogspot.com/ . She had a most interesting life.

I don't expect the rain to come from Arizona Dear Reader Laura. I'm hoping that the NW can spare some!
And we certainly have some to spare! ;)
-
A VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO DR GINNY!!
;D

Wonderful photos, DearReaderLaura! I think you've posted it before but I forgot--what kind of camera are you using? I love my new Casio camera but am a bit disapointed with it. It has a 3x zoom but I can't seem to get the kind of picuture I could with my old camera.

I borrowed my sister's camera this weekend and it only has a 3x optical zoom and 4x digital zoom. The camera that I've been looking at to buy has a 12x optical zoom and 4x digital zoom. You can get up real close with that. :)
-
This camera is a relatively old model and inexpensive. It is some kind of Olympus, I think. The nice one I bought a couple years ago has burn spots on the lens, so I rarely even take it along any more.

I have two single reflex cameras but no digital one yet. I have one camera with lenses up to 16x and several interesting filters that you can put on the end.
-
George, I have a question for you....
Have you done other theatrical roles aside from the Cannibal role?
-
Of my two single reflex, I like one for color a lot better than theother and that is my Canon. I love my Pentax one for black and white photography.
If you guys want I can post a coupleof my black and white photos.

Maureen is coming over soon to give Toby and Dylan a little break in their boring day with me.
-
A commercial that weirds me out right now is the one for BMW, where two kids are screaming while opening packages. But the screams sound as if someone is hurting them, and I try to turn the TV down whenever that commercial comes on.
-
Hello all! Wanted you to know I made it home safe last night. But when I booted my computer, I started having issues the likes of which Ad-Aware & AVG Anti-Virus couldn't solve. Yikes!
Saturday's breakfast & matinee were a blast. They made the long, boring ride down more than worth it.
Alet & Benjamin were perhaps my favorites but Cason's song had me in stitches. (Hi Cason!)
I agree, Mr. Bruce, we were rather a vocal bunch...right up until the sing-along. I swear I was the only one singing along! *grin*
Well, time to go watch the little gibbons!
-
Roddy Doyle - GREAT writer. Probably the reason why I found Frank McCourt's "Angela's Ashes" to be be such rubbish!
-
I had a too many connections message a few minutes ago. I thought I had received one of Jose's messages by mistake.
-
Thank you DR Jane. Sagittarians are such a thoughtful group.
-
Fires continue. Tasmania has over a dozen homes destroyed yesterday. The "bush" may need the fires but the wildlife, human and property cost is very high. The biggest worry here in Victoria is that fires may spread into water catchment areas - Our water storages are now less than 40% capacity.
-
Roddy Doyle - GREAT writer. Probably the reason why I found Frank McCourt's "Angela's Ashes" to be be such rubbish!
Angela's Ashes was okay but I found it on the depressing side. His second book, "Tis" is much better.
Roddy Doyle is a great writer. I love his Barrytown trilogy. Even the movie version of "The Commitments" was good. Great soundtrack.
I also like Brendan Carroll. I have actually met Cecelia Ahern who wrote "P.S. I love you". She is the daughter of the Irish PM and she was in St. Paul doing a book signing session at Irish On Grand. She is a lovely person! I have not read her most recent book, "If you could see me now" yet.
-
Tom, I have had several those messages today also
-
Safety from the brushfires vibes to Tom!!
-
George, I have a question for you....
Have you done other theatrical roles aside from the Cannibal role?
It's been over four years since my last community theater experience (I've never done any professional acting) but during the previous 10 or so years, I've played Charlie Brown in You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown, Sancho Panza in Man of La Mancha, Hero in ...Forum, Lord Brockhurst in The Boy Friend and Tim Allgood in Noises Off. I've also been in Camelot, Brigadoon, Snow White Goes West, Amadeus, The 1940s Radio Hour, Annie, as well as some reviews and several other shows that I can't remember right now. :)
-
We love photos around here, DakotaCelt. Post some, please.

BTW in case any TAR fans are interested. The TAR allstar teams have been confirmed (well sort of). They are not confirmed by CBS. But I am still quite certain that they are correct. Although there are still some teams missing.

I call this one wanderment...

and another...

and a graphic just for George...

Cease fire vibes to Tomovoz.
Incidentally, a finely crafted CD from you has made its ways to these shores. Toms everywhere will be pleased.
-
Good to hear Rodzinski. Thanks for Cease fire vibes.
We are way ahead of Harry & Dick.
-
Thanks for the photos, DakotaCelt. Black and white photos always look so artistic.
-
The reserve sounds lovely but not hte gunshots. I also agree with you and it does not make sense to me either as to why they are allowing hunting there.
The hunting is heavily regulated by the government. Only species considered "bountiful" are hunted.
Game hunting is a recognized method of wildlife management.
Fees paid by hunters are a large source of income to the government to support wildlife refuges.
Nicely put - if you ban hunting from state lands the voters will dry up the funds needed to support them.

Why do we hear plaints about the "poor deer" and "gorgeous snow goose" and nary a word about the "suffering catfish"?
-
Holly irritated me on BROTHERS & SISTERS, too, but to keep Patricia Wettig on the show, I knew they'd have to come up with something. Her husband Ken Olin is one of the executive producers, so she wasn't going anywhere and was going to have to continue to be involved intimately with that family.
I don't like the character much either, especially last night.
-
Phone calls kept interrupting my viewing this afternoon, but I did get three shows watched.
I started with a poignant COLD CASE episode concerning the death of a rising country music star. Pretty easy to guess the killer even before the revelation, but the story was still moving and had a few surprises to offer. Enjoyed it.
-
Page Six "Peter and the Wolf" Dance!!!
-
Good to hear Rodzinski. Thanks for Cease fire vibes.
We are way ahead of Harry & Dick.
Miles ahead, good sir.
-
Next up was last night's WITHOUT A TRACE. Dealing with the disappearance of a high school basketball star who disappeared after winning the big game, the story had some unusual turns to it that caught me off guard. Nice to see Connor Trineer from the old ENTERPRISE series guest starring as the basketball coach.
-
I finished my afternoon with last Thursday's SCRUBS, an okay effort detailing nurse Carla giving birth to her first child and the chaos that surrounded her on her special day. One or two good laughs, but the show has not gotten off to an outstanding start thus far this season.
-
I had thought that last night was the season finale of DEXTER, but I found out that actually the show doesn't end until next Sunday, so I didn't start with it this afternoon as I had planned. I should be able to get to it later tonight or tomorrow.
-
DR Charles Pogue, I ran into David Harewood just a few minutes ago and let him know that you had enjoyed him in the play. He was quite happy to hear that. He is in the US for the premier of a new movie that he is in and he is trying to get an agent in the States.
I will have to add some of his movies to my Netflix queue...besides being one heck of a good looking guy (my goodness but he must work out a lot!) he is really nice....oh, did I say he was good looking! Whew! LOL!
-
By the way, I am not in Salem yet. I checked out of the hotel earlier but my car is still parked in the underground garage and I got tired of walking around Hollywood...it is HOT (!) so I stopped back over to use the computer and now I shall drive away.
Haven't heard from my lunch date so I think I will just go ahead and drive around and find something tasty to eat...maybe swing by the beach...then head to the airport.
-
Have jogged, have packaged up a large number of CDs, have picked up mail - including a nice birthday present from dear reader Jeanne, and will shortly go to the post office to ship.
-
What a distinguished new avatar, DR Professor TomovOz.
-
This life of leisure is too too.
I've just arisen from my nap, and now I am off to my chiropractor.
-
By the way: I had a lot of fun watching the weekend "Thet Girl" marathon on TV Land.
The opening theme/montage (the one without the drearily thin choral vocal of the song) is one of the best ever from a TV show of that era, I think.
Very well-edited....beautifully scored....it's endearing and a time capsule for some of NYC (pre-WTC, too).
-
I'm here and caught up on todays posts!
How nice to see/read that DR Jane is having a good time. I was a bit worried about you.
No more fires in the land down under!
Der B--I was the gal that felt so sorry for the fish my dad caught, I let them go when his back was turned. Guess who didn't get to go fishing with him after that?
-
DR George, do you have pictures of your play?
-
I think you can still buy Cod Liver Oil. It's in with the Exlax.
-
DR Jane, please tell DR Jose I said "Hi" and he is missed.
-
I'm still digging my way out of the email mess I now have. Ugh. Most are ads but I'm afraid I may miss someones email to me.
I really need to sit and play with my camera--take shots of the same thing at the same distance but with different settings so I can get a feel for it and what works.
-
Oh and before I have to go--DR Ginny, we need Birthday details and pictures!
-
Laters all! (A Jose reference)
-
and a graphic just for George...
;D
-
Off now to tidy up a few things here before heading out for my audition. Will give a full report when I get back.
-
LOTZA VIBES LARRY
-
Vibes Elmore. That work is too important to sit untouched again for any length of time.
-
DR George, do you have pictures of your play?
I took a few of us Indians, but that's all...so far. I would like to get a few more before we end this weekend. I'll see if I can remember to post one or two tonight.
Be afraid...be very afraid! ;)
-
[move=left,scroll,6,transparent,100%]~~~Date Extention Vibes For Elmore!!~~~[/move]
-
Thanks for the birthday wishes, DR George!
We're back from our Christmas shopping errand in Cincinnati, dinner at Outback, and a visit with my mother-in-law.
DR Danise, this birthday has not been especially photo-worthy. Pretty quiet and low-key. Soon I'll be off with my basket of coffee cakes to put up for auction. Purchase details at 11 (sooner, actually).
-
Vibes for extension of the American Musical Theatre project!
-
Happy birthday, DR Ginny!
-
We should be able to post photos again - perhaps I'll do a test.
-
Cason sings All About Men.
-
Yep, photos working fine.
-
Shipped all packages (including a nice, last-minute reorder from Footlight), have eaten a few pieces of See's Candy, and shall now shave and shower so I'm ready to go to judge the talent thing this evening at seven.
-
Picked up Scoop, the new Woody Allen film, which I hear is dreadful, but I do watch each new Allen film, ever-hopeful.
-
Thank you, DR Sandra!
When our son was practicing CPR, the head of the practice dummy popped off. He was told that was not the desired effect.
-
On CNN, the commentator was saying, "But, there is a but" just as the above photo graced my computer screen.
-
I picked up Poop, the latest from Toby and Dylan.
-
Dylan is a little scavenger for dropped food when he's on the streets. You'd think we never fed him.
-
When they said BRAIN FROM PLANET X has legs, I didn't think this was what they meant.
-
Thank you, DR Sandra!
When our son was practicing CPR, the head of the practice dummy popped off. He was told that was not the desired effect.
Okay, so maybe HE C.P.R.ed the living daylights out of the dummy.
-
When they said BRAIN FROM PLANET X has legs, I didn't think this was what they meant.
Umm...is there a problem??
;)
-
...Why do we hear plaints about the "poor deer" and "gorgeous snow goose" and nary a word about the "suffering catfish"?
Because it's much more fun to say "Thuffering Thuccotash!"
-
Cason sings All About Men.
Great costumes!!!
-
Der Brucer and I made a raid on the store where I work, taking advantage of some of the sales and a 5% coupon I had in hand. While there, we also took advantage of a 25%-off-for-employees price reduction on a bunch of DVDs, including the first three Batman films.
I really do like where I work.
-
I recieved an e-mail today, threatening to bitchslap me if I don't show up in Los Angeles to see Brain from Planet X.
Well, my work schedule doesn't allow me to make the trip cross-country.
And der Brucer is too cheap to pay for the airfare.
Neither of which are good reasons, they are just excuses.
So I guess I'm up for a bitchslapping, and hang my head in shame.
I sure would like to see an East Coast production, though!!!
No, really!!!
Please???
-
Cason sings All About Men.
That number killed me.
I'm serious.
Seriously amused.
-
and a graphic just for George...
Hey, I'm just as much a Doctor Who fan!!! How else would I know that the graphic is a homage to the 140th story, Mark of the Rani, huh? Strange, what you can find in a TARDIS!
:o
:-*
-
It is time for me to get to fixin' dinner.
Steaks, with baked taters and iceberg wedge salad.
Nothing fancy, just good eatins.
Laters.
(I miss Jose.)
-
I am going to delete my earlier Toyland post; since then, I've spoken to my employer and things seem to have calmed down. I, of course. think it's those HHW vibes! Keep 'em coming!
-
And what about the mustard plaster.
-
I'm watching Scoop - I always give Mr. Allen the benefit of the doubt, just as I did with Blake Edwards - but, I must say that Mr. Allen has made some of the most depressingly awful movies I've ever seen.
-
Just ordered dinner, but tomorrow - inspired by those photos - I shall diet.
-
Happy B-Day Ginny!!!!!!
Good Luck Planet X'ers with your interview, I cant wait to hear the stories!
50hrs and 15mins until the next showing of the brain!!!!!Places!
-
Whether that diet lasts through the day after tomorrow is another issue.
-
Thank you, DR Sandra!
When our son was practicing CPR, the head of the practice dummy popped off. He was told that was not the desired effect.
LOL, they looked at me and said "You just broke ALL of her ribs"
-
Sorry SWW, I forgot....
Yep, that is right!!
-

Thanks for adding this. I missed the deleted post and the follow up made no sense to me at all. Since I have been home all day with a horrible headache and am a bit out of it, I figured I just didn't understand.
I'm glad I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow. I don't usually get headaches like this that last for days so I'm glad I can talk to her about it even though that isn't the reason I'm going in.
-
On that picture bk posted, OH MY!!!!!
Planet X has LEGS!!!
And the kids are wondering what I am grinning at....
-
Wow we are already over 200 posts and it is only after 7 here in the buffalo commons....
-
And what about the mustard plaster.
-
Happy B-Day Ginny!!!!!!

I have to admit that I didn't know the specific reference, I just recognized that it was the Tardis. ::)
-
I'm getting my new carpet installed tomorrow!! The installers just called and had a time slot available between 12 and 2 p.m....hopefully it'll be sooner, rather than later. We'll see. :D
-
Good carpet laying vibes for GEorge and I hope it is earlier.....
-

Thanks! :)

Thank you, DR Adriana Patti! Your new avatar is lovely.
I'm back from the craft & talent auction. My coffee cakes sold for $8 apiece. I bought some homemade turtles, some pretzels covered in white chocolate (DS Rob's favorites), an empty pie pan with a promise for a homemade apple pie (DH Richard's favorite), some hand made holiday greeting cards, and a packet of nearly-new gift bags. That last item is always provided by one of the members who's the owner and lead teacher in a local nursery school. She receives hundreds of presents each year and carefully recycles the gift bags as an auction item. I bought a set of 6 assorted sizes for $8.
-
Miss Patti has not returned her phone call
-
Miss Patti will therefore need to be bitch-slapped from here to eternity and hell and back.
-
I, on the other hand, will now be on my way to judge a talent contest.
-
Miss Patti, on the other hand, will receive her bitch-slap momentarily.
-
First there was Robbins......
-
I, on the other hand, am hungry but will not be able to eat until after this three-hour thing tonight.
-
Next there was Fosse....
-
On the other hand, I am my own frenzy.
-
And Michael Bennett....
-
I, on the other hand, shall now really be on my way to judge a talent contest. I'm already tired before it even begins.
-
And now there is Kimmel....
-
JAZZ HANDS!!
;)
-
Each choreographer has their classic signature move. And now Kimmel joins the group. With the Planet X hand move.
-
I'm now leaving work and going home. My sister and niece are coming over so that we can empty out my living room of everything in preparation of the carpet getting installed tomorrow. Later!
-
Happy, happy, happy birthday, Ginny!!
-
Well the review is wonderful wonderful! I'm totally happy for little Cason Murphy! All well-deserved.
-
Happy, happy, happy birthday, Ginny!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you, DR PennyO!
-
Feel better vibes for DR Cillaliz!
-
Feel better vibes for DR Cillaliz!
Thanks Ginny. I took a hot bath and got out the heat pad. I'm slowly feeling better.
-
The evening is calm. My chores are done.
I'm bidin' my time now till Wednesday evening's flight back to the east coast (So. Car.).
I feel all tingly for having accomplished all I need to get done.
(I just KNOW I've forgotten something or someone).
-
I'm totallly thrilled for BK and company for what is sure to be a successful run of "The Brain From Planet X."
-
Thanks Ginny. I took a hot bath and got out the heat pad. I'm slowly feeling better.
I sure hope she didn't use the heat pad in the hot bath!
Otherwise, her hair is going to be very difficult to manage for awhile!
;)
-
I'm just now getting home from the OLIVER! auditions. They really should have had a separate night for kids or perhaps done them in the late afternoon.
Anyway, attempt #3 at Fagin is now history. Time will tell what might happen.
-
So, of course, no viewing of TV, DVDs, DVR, or the like. Sad, sad, sad. I will need to make up for that tomorrow.
-
Page Nine MULAN Dance!!!
-
My two shipments came today of the DIsney True-Life Adventures. Two from Amazon and the other two from Deep Discount. They were ordered on the same day, and arrived here on exactly the same day.
-
I'm heading off to bed now. It's been a LONG evening and a LONG day.
Good night!
-
Can I just say how funny it was to have Bruce try out the picture of Eric, Masa, and myself to test the uploader? That certainly got a laugh from me!
-
You most certainly may
-
The Skip E. Lowe show was a total trip this evening. Alet, Steve Moyer (our publicist), and myself all arrived around 4 at Beverly Hills High School - to join our dear castmate Lauren who had supposedly been there for about an hour already. We then proceeded to wait in the green room - NO FOOD OR DRINKS - for another 45 minutes, at which point we were running way late (much to Alet and Lauren's chagrin). Finally we got started up, and Skip was just raving about the show, Alet's ample hair and bosom (in the show, of course), asking Lauren about her formative years in NYC, telling me how I should be in Albee's "Zoo Story," and remarking repeatedly about how Kevin has put on weight.
A half hour (and many, many, many chuckles later), we were done and Skip tottered off into the evening. He has promised to get me a copy of today's festivities, so that should be fun.
He also promised that in addition to this little show running 5 times a day for the next week, he will do some advertising for us at his live broadcast in WeHo tomorrow. So, the Boy with the Betty Grable Legs strikes again!
-
I am patiently awaiting bruce's call or bitch-slap, whichever comes first....
-
47 hours and 15 minutes until the next showing of the brain!!!
-
That is 47 hours and 15 minutes too long for me...

Sounds like quite a day!!
I had a math test, no where near as exciting or useful...
-
We could certainly use Audience vibes for the next 47 hours so that we get a good crowd! Your trip to see Skip shall not have been in vain!!!!!
-
hehe, trip, skip! Im a poet!
-
Well the review is wonderful wonderful! I'm totally happy for little Cason Murphy! All well-deserved.
Thank you Penny! I posted a copy of the review up on our call board today - and I saw quite a few curious eyes and smiling faces because of it. Now I just wonder what our LA Times reviewer will have to say...
-
TOTAL AUDIENCE VIBES!
For all 5 of our upcoming shows!
-
perhaps the citizens of the LA county will forget that they are quite annoyingly PARSIMONIOUS and come see our brilliant show!
-
Yeesh, the LA Times scares me! Hopefully the charm of the show won over our reviewer. One never knows about these things though...
Someone took Bruce's article from frontiers off the call board! JEALOUS MUCH!
-
Im bored and restless....What does one do on a Monday night with finals coming up!!
-
Well, I am putting off working on monologues and Shakespeare stuff...
I'd rather be doing something related to the Brain.
-
I feel like spamming to reach 100 posts tonight.....alas and alack and almost there!
Is it tomarrow yet!!! I have things to do, people to see, places to go!!
-
Shakespeare's been done before, no harm in putting him off a little longer...
-
Surprises to give?
-
This page is almost entirely me and Cason!! What a wonderful page!
-
Surprises to give?
and hugs!
-
This page is almost entirely me and Cason!! What a wonderful page!
That's what I'm talkin' about!
-
I always feel a beat behind when posting on a forum....what is worse is when you are a beat ahead and everyone is still talking about a topic you thought was over and done with and you have moved onto something else and no one is listening to you any longer....
Boy, is that a 99th post or what?!
-
What? Oh sorry, I was about to go back to talking about Shakespeare... ;)
-
Well, kidz, aunt Pen's about to hit the rack
-
I am dedicating my 100th post to all the wonderful people on the site and hugs for all !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Adrianna - your call times are hilarious - Ladies and Gentlemen, the call is 47 hours, 16 minutes...
-
GOODNIGHT PENNY IT WAS WONDERFUL MEETING YOU!!!!
-
How did we know ol' Cason would walk away with the show AND the review???
-
Dittos on the wonderfulness of our meeting, oh true brain of BRAIN
-
OMG PAGE 10 DANCE IN FULL SCREEN!!!

-
Anyone know of any good, cheap massage places here in LA?
My back has decided that today would be a great time to start spasming...
-
Yes, people, Adriana Patti is the TRUE BRAIN OF BRAIN
-
We got "good" we got "cheap" we don't got "good AND cheap"
-
And now, the collapsing into beddie shall commence
-
Night, oh stars a-blooming

I give a good massage, but it's not pro, just loving. (some say better than Chie!)
-

That some being Bruce?
-
Im sure Micheal Hausner would know, he was getting one in the boys dressing room on Friday night! The lady brought in a table and everything.
-
Im a THREE STAR MEMBER!!! (roars and gets no applause)
-
I'm still just a one-star member...but I have five-star posts...right?
-
Now we're quoting Jessica Rabbit, are we, Adriana?
-
Cason-We were tempted to move to Prescott, until we discovered Ashland & made it our home.
Our Narrator/Professor Leder, Benjamin Clark, is from good ol' Ashland. He is doing the Ashlandites well, I will say that.
-
I'm still just a one-star member...but I have five-star posts...right?
Naturally ;)
-
WE ARE THE FIRST BOARD TO REACH PAGE 10 IN EIGHT DAYS
-
And we still have an hour and 16 minutes by my watch...
-
if we keep this up, (13 more posts) we will break records!
-
And we still have an hour and 16 minutes by my watch...
That of course depends on when BK gets back from McDonalds and decides to post...
-
Though in order to do so, I hope we don't have to sound like broken records...
But knowing you and I, I doubt we will.
-
I never understood that!! A broken record would not repeat..It would screech or not play...how Broken is that record, in pieces? In that case It would not even go onto the machine!
I sound like Benjamin Kritzer LOL!
-
Cason, what book/ and or movies am I too bring you again? (not that you probably have time for them anyway)
-
Well, Nudie Musical is a must.
And seeing as how I am starting "Benjamin Kritzer," at some point I'll need the other two.
-
I never understood that!! A broken record would not repeat..It would screech or not play...how Broken is that record, in pieces? In that case It would not even go onto the machine!
Well, technically, you are right. Then let us hope we don't have to sound like slightly scratched records - the kind that repeat, that is.
-
I'm A Three-Star Member - that's the title of my next novel.
Glad to hear Skip was fun.
Back from judging the talent contest - I feared for the worst, but there were some good folks up there, one gal in particular.
-
I've started watching Charlie Chan At The Opera - I do love these CC movies, but I'm not motivated right now, so I'm posting instead.
-
I suppose its ok to repeat as long as it is in
GLOW-0-RAMA
-
I miss my message popup
-
What kind of a talent contest was this? Any unique, odd acts? Or just standard singers, dancers, etc.?
Were you the only judge? Or was it a star-studded panel?
-
Im bored and restless....What does one do on a Monday night with finals coming up!!
Drink coffee and scream at planes!
-
WE have jumped 11 times to page 11

What? Oh sorry, I was about to go back to talking about Shakespeare... ;)
The bard is great...
My favorites are Romeo and Juliet and A Midsummer's Night's Dream.
-
I've started watching Charlie Chan At The Opera - I do love these CC movies, but I'm not motivated right now, so I'm posting instead.
I saw Gold Rush not too long ago and they played the music on a Wurlitzer organ at the Fargo Theatre.
-
The bard is great...
My favorites are Romeo and Juliet and A Midsummer's Night's Dream.
Mine are Twelfth Night, Antony and Cleopatra (we made a barbie version that must be seen!!), and Two Gentleman of Verona.
-
Greetings to you Cason and Adriana from the Buffalo Commons!
-
Mine are Twelfth Night, Antony and Cleopatra (we made a barbie version that must be seen!!), and Two Gentleman of Verona.
Twelfth Night is good also.
I Not a huge fan of Julius Ceasar. Have you read Merry Wives of Windsor?
I like the MacScottish play and Hamlet. My dad calls Hamlet: Ham Salad!
-
I am also a large fan of Brinsley's work. I love School for Scandal and Rivals. Both are excellent plays.
Have you seen Shakespeare production?
-
Patiently awaiting the arrival of two things I got on ebay...
-
I have seen (and been in seeing as shakespeare is a specialty of mine) many a shakespeare production, and read 90% of his plays, and am familiar with Brinsley, although not as much as I should be.
where did Cason go... :(
-
yay he's back
I am looking for my copie of Antony and Cloepatra in barbie vision, and much to my distress it is not to be found! yikes!
-

Not sure where he disappeared to...
Living in the buffalo commons it is not easy to come by watching a quality live production of Shakespeare. I have only seen A Midsummer's Night's dream.
I recommend Rivals for you to read.
-
I also like John Symington Synge
-
I have become a big fan of Irish playwrights and writers. My favorite writers from Ireland include Brendan Carroll, Cecelia Ahern, Seamus Heaney, and Roddy Doyle.
-
I need to order the rest of the Kritzerland books...
-
Have you read bruce's book, "Writer's Block"?
Quite good.
-
yay he's back
I am looking for my copie of Antony and Cloepatra in barbie vision, and much to my distress it is not to be found! yikes!
YIkes...
I should find the vid clips of Matt Ashford on Days doing shakespeare.. He was quite a hoot reading the part of Puck!
-
I could see him as puck!!
I have read all of bruce's books....and I will certainly head over to the librbar and check out those you listed...
-
Alright, my spastic back and aching shoulders are suggesting that I should head off to bed...and at this point, I don't think I can argue with them too much.
Farewell, I shalt see thee anon! (It ain't Shakespeare, but I was feeling inspired...)
-
Let me look theclips up for you... IT is a hoot.. I know of several people who have met him and Bruce and have nothing but kind words for both gentlemen
-
goodnight Cason!
-
http://p207.ezboard.com/fthedeverauxclanfrm31.showMessage?topicID=8.topic (http://p207.ezboard.com/fthedeverauxclanfrm31.showMessage?topicID=8.topic)
Scroll down to the heading of "Jack tries to Teach emilio Shakespeare. The clip before and after that one are interesting...
The gal whose server has the clips does not want us to directly link to it to the clip.
-
Jo Invites Jack to Shakespeare is the Park is the clips where Matt does Puck...
-
Let me look theclips up for you... IT is a hoot.. I know of several people who have met him and Bruce and have nothing but kind words for both gentlemen
that would be wonderful, quite different from my image of him in Deceit
-
Matt's character quoted Shakespeare quite offten especially Romeo and Juliet and the MacScottish play.
-
That image of him there, IMHO is a mixture of him as Haver and old school Jack Deveraux.
At the link I gave you. Click on WATB link at the top of the page and it will give you threads of other clips. He was downright creepy as Haver.
-
It was Matt being in Deceit that I discovered the board and I enjoyed the conversation and personalities, I stuck around.
-
Wonderful how art can do that huh?
-
oh my pg 12, im all out of dances....
-
I must to bed! good night DR DakotaCelt
-
His character on General Hospital was a complete departure from Jack. The only way i can describe that character is Horny!
-
