Loads of work to do inside & out in October. Also this is a time of year we have guests. If I'm not around don't worry, I'm just trying to get things done, plus my body is telling me it needs a break from the computer. Instead of sitting at the computer I'll catch the last of the sun before winter sets in.

VIBES TO ALL!!!

I get to set up my new computer. For a geek like me, that's fun!

I finally got a rather snippy response from my week long barrage of inquiries to the LoC and I'm debating resigning from the Life Begins at 8:40 project. I could use the work, I could definitely use the money, I like the work I've done, but I dislike the needless angst this project has provoked.

First stop today is the post office, then Toyland. More later.

Post by: Matt H. on October 20, 2009, 06:29:51 AM: Today's work project will be to finish BONES - Season 4 on Blu-ray. I'm guestimating that I have six episodes left to watch. There are some bonus features on the last disc in the set, but I'm not quite sure how many. I should be able to finish up with the set today. I have yet to write a single word of the review, however, since I've been watching and reviewing other things while I watched these BONES episodes.
Title: Re: SECONDS
Post by: Matt H. on October 20, 2009, 06:30:46 AM: TOmorrow I'll start work on another box set - THE GUARDIAN, one of Simon Baker's other TV series before THE MENTALIST. I've never seen a single episode of the show, so it will be exciting experiencing this for the first time with an actor I really like.

Post by: Ginny on October 20, 2009, 06:41:22 AM: Back from the jeweler and it's too early to meet my friend at the park. I was going to spend the hour at our local public library, but due to budget cuts they're now opening at 10am instead of 9.

They are going to rebuild all 4 prongs on my engagement ring. Kinda pricey, but cheaper (both in dollars and emotions) than replacing the diamond. The really surprising thing is that the cost is the same amount I was quoted to rebuild a similar ring in 1990. We decided then, when we were living on one income, that it wasn't worth the investment.

OMG! I completely forgot that I saw him in that, too, on a trip to San Francisco. Yes, DR Ginny--he wasn't the grandest of Oscar Jaffes. But he did look like he was having a fun time up on the stage...

I think this was also the performance I saw where the train model kept stalling in the middle of the stage and two stagehands came out at one point to push it with a stick.

The second Leslie Caron movie last night was THE DOCTOR'S DILEMMA with Dirk Bogarde. From the title I thought it was one of Mr Bogarde's Doctor series movies, but it turned out to be a film adaptation of George Bernard Shaw's play.....but I didn't watch it to the end....

Post by: td on October 20, 2009, 08:39:10 AM: I've always felt that Rock Hudson was a tad under-rated as an actor. He could, with the help of a good script and a strong director easily jump from light comedy to heavy (and sometimes heavy-handed) drama. When I was very young, I often mixed up Rock Hudson and John Gavin, both stalwart, swarthy handsome men with finely chiseled features. Once I got over that confusion, I found that Hudson was the more interesting actor - even in PSYCHO and SPARTACUS John Gavin is bland. That said, it's off to the T.O.D., favorite Rock Hudson performances:

DR GINNY and DH RICHARD are climbing 5 flights of stairs. Oy!

DR JRand, I think it will only be 4 flights to get to the 5th floor. At least that's what I keep telling myself. Our landlady emailed to ask if we'd like her to leave a bottle of wine. I told her that would be nice, along with some oxygen.

Tell her to leave the bottle on the lobby table. You will need it for the climb.

The wine or the oxygen?

Both! Of course, if you drink the whole bottle of wine, you won't care about the oxygen.

Post by: JoseSPiano on October 20, 2009, 10:40:01 AM: Good Afternoon!

So far, so good!

A good haircut. A nice walk on The Highline. A nice stroll through Chelsea Market - there are a couple of new stores, including a Jacques Torres' Chocolate "kiosk". I was talking with Tina, who's from their main office, and as I was leaving she asked if I would like a free cookie - their "warmer" was in overdrive, so it over-warmed (melted) some of them, so... YUM! I also checked out the new butcher shop, Dickson's Farmland Meats. Quite a nice selection, and the cuts of meat are butchered and prepped right in the shop, right in front of your eyes (should you wish to observe).

From DAW yesterday: "I was told that pronged rings should be checked for soundness at least once a year."

I think we should all be checked for soundness!

Personally, I'm feeling very soundful right now. ;)

What did you have checked? Your prongs or your rings?

The tall guy I am looking for seems to be completely uncredited, as are several of Jill Corey's female roommates.

Maybe that's why the area on my upper arm where I got the shot has been itching--because I haven't paid for it.

The Fox royalties on that one alone could buy at least 3 or 4 Blu-rays. :)

Post by: DAW on October 20, 2009, 07:09:02 PM: I am back from spending the evening at Lincoln Center. At Alice Tully Hall, there was a memorial tribute to George Weissman, who passed away this past summer. He was the CEO of Phillip Morris, and later the Chairman of Lincoln Center. And my DH's aunt was his assistant for much of his working career.

There were spoken tributes from family and friend and prominent business associates. We also had Mozart via a string quartet and jazz from Winton Marsalis and friends. It was quite a tribute to a great man, a great patron of the arts, and a passionate advocate for corporate support for the visual and performing arts.

Post by: Matt H. on October 20, 2009, 07:10:35 PM: Got the last two episodes of BONES watched. That included that controversial coma/dream episode where Booth and Brennan are married, and all the characters from the season (regulars and recurring) take part in a murder mystery at their nightclub The Lab. I disliked the episode intensely when I first watched it. I liked it much better the second time around since I saw how wittily writer/show creator Hart Hanson used all of the characters in their new personas.

Post by: Matt H. on October 20, 2009, 07:12:36 PM: There were four bonus features on the disc including a funny gag reel and interviews with the round-robin group of interns the show initiated last season and is continuing this season.

Post by: Matt H. on October 20, 2009, 07:13:10 PM: I had some time so I watched some shows on the DVR. I began by skimming through today's ATWT. Nothing of interest and nothing in tomorrow's previews.
Title: Re: SECONDS
Post by: Matt H. on October 20, 2009, 07:14:10 PM: Then I watched Friday's LAW & ORDER. Good episode having to do with this outrageous reality shows like JON & KATE. Really enjoyed the episode even with a weaker than usual mystery.

Post by: Matt H. on October 20, 2009, 07:15:25 PM: I recorded last night's THE BIG BANG THEORY since Wil Wheaton was on and I thought it might be funny. There were some amusing moments (all provided by Jim Parsons), but I don't find myself needing to visit the show but a couple of times per season. THis is my first trip here this year.
Title: Re: SECONDS
Post by: Matt H. on October 20, 2009, 07:16:17 PM: And I concluded my evening watching tonight's NCIS. Enjoyed the mystery a lot and I was figuring it out when the killer was revealed. I couldn't believe how fast the show flew by!
Title: Re: SECONDS
Post by: Matt H. on October 20, 2009, 07:32:55 PM: Well, I got my review posted, the internet surfed, and now I'm ready for bed.

Post by: Cillaliz on October 20, 2009, 07:45:17 PM: This afternoon I met a bunch of the people who office on the floor I'll be moving to. I think I'm really going to like it there. I'm sort of isolated where I am now. I'm on the skywalk, but there aren't any offices that are like next door neighbors.
Title: Re: SECONDS
Post by: bk on October 20, 2009, 07:47:39 PM: I gotta tell you. I have just this minute finished with all the work I had to do. I literally have not stopped since nine this morning. Every time I thought I was through, something else would come up or I'd have to pack up overseas orders (which I'm about to take to the post office, save for the two that I have to stand in line for tomorrow morning), shipping the big boxes at the UPS Store, answering e-mails, preparing two eBlasts to send concurrently, listening to the new master, getting my webguy tracks to put on the site - it just never ends. I don't think I'll have time for a motion picture this evening.

Post by: Cillaliz on October 20, 2009, 07:51:41 PM: The two women in the next office work for a local foundation and do a lot of grant writing etc. They are very excited we'll be moving in. I also met the human grandpa of Jake the Dog (who made so many headlines in sioux city) He also works on the floor.

Post by: JoseSPiano on October 20, 2009, 07:56:46 PM: DR elmore - I'm pretty sure that you'll be able to bring a guest to the Opening Night Party. Heck, most opening parties end up filled with "crashers" and people who never even went to the show that night. Now, unless they're planning on having a sit down dinner, or they're holding it in a very small space and they're worried about the Fire Marshall showing up, well.. Heck, I'm sure that sure that other people know Bruce Pomahac, and if he's chatting with other people while going into the party, no one will bother to ask for his pass/ticket. -Frankly, I'm surprised that Bruce wasn't already invited on his own.

Post by: Cillaliz on October 20, 2009, 07:58:48 PM: There is a write in campaign going on to write in Jake the dog for city council in the upcoming election. I'm going to be Jake for Halloween. I have a dog costume, so it will just take a few adjustments. And I got invited to a halloween costume party today....perfecto!

Actually, I just got back from two hours at the dentist's office, and I feel like I just went ten rounds with Mike Tyson (except I still have both ears).

...As well as the rest of your body parts?

Post by: elmore3003 on October 20, 2009, 08:40:20 PM: Several changes in the show tonight, and two more bars that need fixing added to the music before the finale. I will go in and fix that tomorrow. I did talk to Rob before the performance about the party situation: the orchestra was given additional tickets for dates so I'm considered lower than the band. Rob wants Bruce to be at the party as well, so I'm leaving it in his hands.

The Brent and Brain booklets are going on the press Thursday. The masters should be to the pressing plant on Friday, and we'll probably have CDs about a week after that, really early. I'm getting 100 extra booklets here by Monday, which I'll Fed Ex to Brent to sign and he'll Fed Ex them back to me.
