Well, you've read the notes, the notes fooled Mother Nature but not BK, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're currently fooling Mother Nature AND BK.

As promised, here is our new release for your mental delectation.  You know the deal - $19.98 plus 3.75 shipping to kritzerland at adelphia dot net via paypal.  Remember, the first 100 copies will be signed by the composer.

“There is a time to laugh and a time not to laugh, and this is not one of them.”

Kritzerland is proud to present its newest limited edition soundtrack release:

INSPECTOR CLOUSEAU  Music Composed and Conducted by Ken Thorne

Inspector Clouseau was the third film to feature the intrepid and inept character created by Blake Edwards and brought to memorable life by Peter Sellers in The Pink Panther.  A year later, the two re-teamed with A Shot In The Dark, where the focus was completely on Clouseau – the result was a comedy classic and a huge hit.  And then the Inspector disappeared until 1968, when he returned to the screen in Inspector Clouseau.   Audiences, however, were as confused and confounded as Clouseau because instead of Peter Sellers they found a new actor was portraying the role – the gifted Alan Arkin, who’d already been nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor for The Russians Are Coming, The Russians Are Coming, and would, the same year as Clouseau, be nominated again for The Heart Is A Lonely Hunter.  But the film disappeared quickly because audiences just didn’t want a Clouseau film without Sellers.

The film was directed by Bud Yorkin, who’d just had a big hit with Divorce, American Style, and who, with partner Norman Lear, was about to unleash a TV program that would change the face of sitcoms forever – All In The Family.   Arkin is actually quite amusing as Clouseau, and the film has lovely location photography and is better than its reputation.  In fact, until recently, this film was the bastard child of the Pink Panther series – that was put right in 2008 when the film was included in the Ultimate Pink Panther DVD set. 

Henry Mancini had done Panther and A Shot In The Dark, but he, too, was in absentia for Inspector Clouseau, most likely out of loyalty to Edwards (Edwards and Sellers had declined to take part in Clouseau as they were working on The Party, and Mirisch didn’t want to wait), and because he was also working on The Party.  The scoring assignment fell to Ken Thorne, who’d just come off working with Richard Lester on several films, including The Beatles’ Help, How I Won The War, and A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum (writing incidental music and adapting the Stephen Sondheim score and winning an Oscar in the bargain).  He would go on to score many other Lester films including Superman II and III, Royal Flash, and Juggernaut, as well as a whole slew of others, like Head, Arabian Adventure, The House Where Evil Dwells, Hannie Caulder, and Lassiter.   Thorne’s score is quite wonderful.  It opens with an incredibly catchy main theme and that theme occurs throughout the film, along with several other catchy themes, including a couple of Bond-like cues and a ravishingly beautiful love theme.  Given his work on the Beatles film, there’s even a Beatles-like song, “Why Don’t You Go?”  Comedy scoring is surprisingly difficult to pull off, and it’s eluded many composers, but Thorne, like Mancini, gets it just right.

This world premiere CD release features the LP program, which is basically the score as used in the film.  The CD has been mastered from the original album masters and sounds fantastic.  Cover art by the great Jack Davis.

This release is limited to 1000 copies only.  The price is $19.98 plus shipping.  The first one hundred copies ordered at Kritzerland will be signed by Ken Thorne.

DR MusicGuy and I are now the proud parents of 1 and 1/2 year old Border Collie mix.  We have a new baby!!!!  She was a stray who had been rescued, and when I saw her, something clicked, and I knew she was the right dog for us. the last few weeks have confirmed this, and she came to live with us on Tuesday (which is why I have been errant and truant).  I did attempt to  post this yestreday, but the file must have been too big.  So,  everyone, meet  SUGAR

I played Ken Thorne's very own Yamaha keyboard during The Producers.  Ken and the show's director are neighbors.  The director told me repeatedly he had never heard of BK and was quite miffed that BK had done a sci-fi parody with Leslie Nielsen years before the director had.  I think you should have a dinner party together--may I come?  ;)

My sister got a call today telling her that her friend's 11-12 year old niece (who came trick-or-treating with us) might have the swine flu.

She was fine until sunday night, and now has a high fever and achy throat (among other things).  I'm not really sure how catchable it is. But she only met us outside and everyone was wearing gloves. And she was not coughing.

She was holding her cousin's hand (my niece's friend), but did not touch the baby (my 5 1/2 month old niece). Oy.  So now everyone is sort of concerned. Although if she was only outside, and wearing gloves...

I hope she feels better. And i hope my nieces, my sister and her friend's kids don't catch anything.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My sister's friend has a 1 1/2 year old (who is a cousin to the sick girl). And this little girl also has bad asthma. Fingers crossed.

I'm curious what the H1N1 situation is in other places. Here they have only started the shots for health care workers. Supposedly on friday they are starting for high risk people. But they are going to try to start earlier. Since everyone is wanting a shot now.

Only 2 people have died in quebec in 2 months. But the school situation is bad. There are a lot of kids out with flu like symptoms. And people are panicking. Not good.  And a lot of the places that will give shots are only opening on nov 16th!

Yes, I went out to vote this morning, too. I thought about walking over there during my morning walk, but I'm glad I didn't. It's more uphill than I remembered, and since the road back to my house is also uphill, I fear I wouldn't have made it on foot.

Off-year elections are usually easy because parking isn't much of a problem. There were only four races to vote on, so I was in and out very quickly.

I have a 22" widescreen monitor, and I LOVE it. I'd never had one this size, and it took a lot of getting used to when I first got it. It felt like I was falling into the screen because it was so much larger than I was used to (and widesceen). Now I'm so used to it that I take it for granted.

I have a 22' monitor, too, and I also had to get used to the expansiveness of it.  But it's nice to play DVDs on.  And I occaisionally plug in an HD TV signal receiver so I can watch a few HD broadcast channels.

Aside from being obtuse, he clearly shows you no respect.  You need to speak to him about all of this and tell him that you will be billing him for all dirt/refuse removal.

I don't think a feared retaliation against you for giving him a badly needed reality check should deter you from letting him know that you are not a neighbor to be walked upon.

Meanwhile, you might consider speaking with a "Mr. Lawyer" about this.

think of it as his own personal dumping ground, so he puts all his yard wastes in his little tractor and drives them around the block and down the easement to dump them on the bank of Peachtree Creek. He has been doing this for years, even though we told him that he's creating a snake and rat haven. During the flood, all of his yard refuse was washed away down the creek, only to be caught up in the mass of debris at the bridge which backed up and flooded his neighbors' homes. But that's apparently better than mulching it or putting the waste out at the street for the city to pick up. Grrrrr...

The guy who owns the land surrounding us thinks of it as his own personal dumping ground, so he puts all his yard wastes in his little tractor and drives them around the block and down the easement to dump them on the bank of Peachtree Creek. He has been doing this for years, even though we told him that he's creating a snake and rat haven. During the flood, all of his yard refuse was washed away down the creek, only to be caught up in the mass of debris at the bridge which backed up and flooded his neighbors' homes. But that's apparently better than mulching it or putting the waste out at the street for the city to pick up. Grrrrr...

Ach! Du Lieber Augustin!

Now it all makes sense.

Well, our very own troublemaker, 3D Diffusion, who loves to snipe at me or anyone from this site over at FSM has posted the following, having to do with what I talked about in today's notes - the first line is something she quoted from another post, a post from someone agreeing with the reasons I might be upset about this little brouhaha:

 "don't mean to begrudge La La Land at all - free market! - but I absolutely understand why Bruce might be a little nonplussed."

Oh, he's more than nonplused. Perhaps you don't know what he means when he says, repeatedly, "Let the games begin."

It means he's now going to indulge in an unrelenting war against LaLaLand for the next ten years or so...never mind if their original purpose was totally innocent...he doesn't think so, and that's all that matters.

My sister got a call today telling her that her friend's 11-12 year old niece (who came trick-or-treating with us) might have the swine flu.

She was fine until sunday night, and now has a high fever and achy throat (among other things).  I'm not really sure how catchable it is. But she only met us outside and everyone was wearing gloves. And she was not coughing.

She was holding her cousin's hand (my niece's friend), but did not touch the baby (my 5 1/2 month old niece). Oy.  So now everyone is sort of concerned. Although if she was only outside, and wearing gloves...

I hope she feels better. And i hope my nieces, my sister and her friend's kids don't catch anything.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My sister's friend has a 1 1/2 year old (who is a cousin to the sick girl). And this little girl also has bad asthma. Fingers crossed.


The little girl may have been first in line for the vaccination.  Did they say if she had it?

STAY HEALTHY VIBES TO YOU ALL!

I'm curious what the H1N1 situation is in other places. Here they have only started the shots for health care workers. Supposedly on friday they are starting for high risk people. But they are going to try to start earlier. Since everyone is wanting a shot now.

Only 2 people have died in quebec in 2 months. But the school situation is bad. There are a lot of kids out with flu like symptoms. And people are panicking. Not good.  And a lot of the places that will give shots are only opening on nov 16th!

I called 2 pharmacies out of curiosity and both had neither the seasonal or H1N1 vaccine.  My brother in L.A. finally went to get the seasonal flu shot & it wasn't available.

I am thinking about buying a larger monitor for my computer.  Off to check what is available.

I have a 22" widescreen monitor, and I LOVE it. I'd never had one this size, and it took a lot of getting used to when I first got it. It felt like I was falling into the screen because it was so much larger than I was used to (and widesceen). Now I'm so used to it that I take it for granted.

I LOVE my widescreen monitor, also!  I will NEVER go back to a 4:3 monitor at home.  I have a 4:3 monitor at work, but at least that's a flat screen, so it's not bad at all.

DR Jane, i dont think they know if the cousin has H1N1. I know my sis said she was very sick sunday night. And they went to the hospital and asked to be tested for it. But at the time, maybe she was not sick enough (?) because they didn't do it.

DR Jane i checked my library again for that book and it says that it is forthcoming. Then i did a check for the author and it shows volume 3 available already in french.

It says the 3rd volume is: "La reine dans le palais des courants d'air".  So my guess is the book is only available in french. But i think it can be ordered from amazon.uk.

I'll see BK's rant and raise him a tantrum department:  So I am madly rushing around this morning trying to get errands done before a gig, among them getting my hair cut.  I come out of the barber shop to find some cretin in a Ford Expedition SUV has parked her massive vehicle less than inch away from my driver's side door (and, no, I'm not exaggerating as any of the witnesses would attest).   So I start at the logical place in this particular stripmall--the Starbucks.  I go in, and as politely as possible loudly ask, "Does anyone own a black Ford Expedition--you're blocking my car."  No one responds.  So I then spend the next 10 minutes going door to door in the stripmall with no success.  By then a crowd of Starbucks people had gathered outside all of them decrying how rude this driver must be to park so carelessly.  And then of course the punchline--out of the Starbucks waltzes a woman with her double half-caf latte in hand and sidles up to her Ford Expedition at which point I incredulously ask her if she:  a) cannot see how close she parked, making it literally impossible for me to get in my car; and b) did not hear me stop the sound of commerce at Starbucks with my appeal for the owner of the Ford Expedition to move their car?  She looks at me like it's *my* problem she blocked my car (which, obviously, it was) and then pulls away without so much as an apology.   Her license was BASCRZ.  Mike, can you hack the ODOT database for me?  ;)

In better news, did any of you drink Portland Punch when you were a kid?  It was a syrupy concentrate that you mixed a teaspoon of with water.  Well, there is a magnificent new Portland Punch-esque 100% juice out by Welch's that I got yesterday--Blueberry Pomegranate Grape.  It is the best juice I have ever tasted.  Betsy and the kids are similarly enamored.  I wonder if it might badly stain the luxe clothing of a certain Expedition driver.  ;)

Well, our very own troublemaker, 3D Diffusion, who loves to snipe at me or anyone from this site over at FSM has posted the following, having to do with what I talked about in today's notes - the first line is something she quoted from another post, a post from someone agreeing with the reasons I might be upset about this little brouhaha:

 "don't mean to begrudge La La Land at all - free market! - but I absolutely understand why Bruce might be a little nonplussed."

Oh, he's more than nonplused. Perhaps you don't know what he means when he says, repeatedly, "Let the games begin."

It means he's now going to indulge in an unrelenting war against LaLaLand for the next ten years or so...never mind if their original purpose was totally innocent...he doesn't think so, and that's all that matters.



To which I responded:

I think you have this switched around a bit, dear Altamese.

I'm quite certain you don't know Bruce Kimmel well enough to predict one single thing about how he really feels or what he will do in future over anything based on a few words written out of frustration...a frustration he has most certainly moved on past.

Surely it is you who indulges in unrelenting wars against people...for whatever reasons (witness your ugly post to this thread).

I assure you, you will always get the fuzzy end of the lollipop in such dust-ups. You're no match for the likes of Bruce Kimmel.

They announced on the news today that they will start the H1N1 shots on thursday for people with kids under 6months, kids under 5 and people with illnesses. I have to find out if i am eligible (since i am with my niece 4 days a week).

There have been a lot of troubles with lines here and people not respecting the order. i'm not even sure how so many people have tried to get shots since it was only supposed to be health workers who were eligible.

They are going to try a coupon system where you go and get the coupon saying what time you have to be back. At least that way kids don't have to wait in the lines for hours.

Because I fear it will begin something. He will retaliate or something. He also trimmed the palm tree and put the fronds in my yard. I don't know what's wrong with him.

Aside from being obtuse, he clearly shows you no respect.  You need to speak to him about all of this and tell him that you will be billing him for all dirt/refuse removal.

I don't think a feared retaliation against you for giving him a badly needed reality check should deter you from letting him know that you are not a neighbor to be walked upon.

Meanwhile, you might consider speaking with a "Mr. Lawyer" about this.

A MS Lawyer may be better ;)

Well miracles do happen.

I wanted to find my LP of HIGH SPIRITS the musical version of BLITHE SPIRIT so that I would have that LP for the display case of my show next summer.  I knew it had left the house and was residing somewhere among the thousand or so LP's in the storage room off the patio....but I decided to spend 15 minutes or so looking where it should be.

I found the Pearl Bailey/Cab Calloway HELLO DOLLY LP, and the 1960 Revival Cast LP of Finian's Rainbow....and wonder of wonder miracle of miracles...I also found HIGH SPIRITS!

I may listen to it after NCIS this evening.

DR GINNY wins for busiest day contest - so far.

I'm going to be spending the day moving the dirt that the next-door-neighbor put behind my fence when he excavated to do some backyard project. I got a citation from the city for it.

 :o The city won't cite the neighbor instead? 
Are you being nice or is this a neighbor who won't clean up the mess?

It's behind my fence. The city doesn't care who put it there. This is not Mr. Goldstein, by the way. It's the guy on the other side.
The other side of Mr. Goldstein...sounds like a mystery of sorts

DR Jane i checked my library again for that book and it says that it is forthcoming. Then i did a check for the author and it shows volume 3 available already in french.

It says the 3rd volume is: "La reine dans le palais des courants d'air".  So my guess is the book is only available in french. But i think it can be ordered from amazon.uk.

That is what I saw.  Thanks for looking & satisfying my curiosity.  You might enjoy reading the trilogy.  The first book is GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO.  I enjoyed it and loved the 2nd book THE GIRL WHO PLAYED WITH FIRE.

Here they are not even testing for H1N1 unless you are hospitalized or have died.

I don't see why they can't do the test if you show the symptoms and ask for it.

They don't do it here either, some way to track a pandemic ;)  I expect it is too costly to test everyone.

I will be on the lookout, DR Jane, but it sounds like it may not be here yet.

And let me just say this:  Canada has very good hot chocolate.       :D

I love good hot chocolate.

Thanks anyway.  I think I have my answer.  May the release , English version, coincides with the American date of May 1st.

In better news, did any of you drink Portland Punch when you were a kid?  It was a syrupy concentrate that you mixed a teaspoon of with water.  Well, there is a magnificent new Portland Punch-esque 100% juice out by Welch's that I got yesterday--Blueberry Pomegranate Grape.  It is the best juice I have ever tasted.  Betsy and the kids are similarly enamored.  I wonder if it might badly stain the luxe clothing of a certain Expedition driver.  ;)

Never heard of Portland punch.  We drank Hawaiian Punch.

I have drunk the potion and tomorrow at 11am I have my "procedure" Even with a "flavor packet" that stuff is wicked!

Wicked is an understatement.   You would think someone could figure out how to make it taste better.  At least you kept it down.

The stuff I've had the last two times is really great.  It doesn't require a "flavor packet" at all - it just tastes like very lightly flavored seltzer water.  And you don't have to drink a whole gallon - just a small, reasonably-sized bottle.

I watched quite a few ZORRO episodes tonight. The shows look very, very good (though not perfect; there are dust specks from time to time and some light print damage or flickering occasionally; the sound is sometimes a bit off, too: flutter on some episodes and one episode I watched seemed to have been more than half the show looped, and the ADR work gave it a very dry, dead sound.

What fun to see the handsome Guy Williams at his absolute physical peak. The image is so sharp, however, that his stunt double is often very noticeable (a very handsome man himself).
Title: Re: IT'S NOT NICE TO FOOL MOTHER NATURE OR BK
Post by: Matt H. on November 03, 2009, 07:23:56 PM
I had forgotten that ZORRO has long story arcs across multiple episodes rather than stand alone episodes. Oh, you can certainly understand them if you skip episodes. They were made for children after all. But I didn't remember that stories played out in an almost serial-like way, even down to serialized looking preview scenes that put important characters in grave danger just like the old serials used to do.

I got my NORTH BY NORTHWEST blu-ray before work this afternoon, and when I went to play it, it would only go through the FBI warning screen and the Warner Brothers logo. . .so after much frustration, I decided to try a firmware update.  This was not nearly as painful as I thought it was going to be.  Lo, and behold, following the update, I was able to watch NORTH BY NORTHWEST!
