Well, you've read the notes, the notes had lug nuts, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're currently trying to loosen the lug nuts on their autoMOObile.

And the word of the day is: TINNIENT!

probably on tv showing the basil rathbone films. probably seen many others after that but Murder By Decree, 7% Solution, The one that Michael Caine is an actor who pretends to be SHerlock Holmes come to mind
-
everyone have a great day
-
Good morning, all! Around 5:45 I had a panic attack about ROBERTA and the fact that I am currently in conductor hell, and that was the end of my sleeping. Around 6:45, I figured to hell with it, bathed, and dressed. In another hour or so, I'll do the week's laundry, mop the bathroom and plan my next course of action.
There's been no fallout from yesterday's spectral visitation, or whatever it was, so I'm still unsure of what was going on there. I've just sent the recording producer an inquiry into when we'd hear the rest of the DEAREST ENEMY, which I'm certain will get me a terse, unpeasant response. Color me discontent today.
-
The visitation coming to Larry on the major event day in Vatican City - I worry that a parody lyric for "A Call from the Vatican" may be coming on, maybe I should get some coffee before I'm moved to actually do soemthing about that.
:)

Jrand - thank you so much for putting that comment on YouTube yesterday!
-
As I've said elsewhere, I'm really very confused that the people on the chat boards seem to be calling everyone who is loving KINKY BOOTS a shill - our "bridge and tunnel" friends and friends who saw it in Chicago have enjoyed it a great deal, and believe me, for the most part, they don't know nobody in show business (except the likes of us). Nobody's claiming it's great literature, but the raving to their friends has been unmistakable.

Morning everyone.
It was really foggy last night, city lights just glorious.

Probably, as DR Mike said, seeing the Rathbone films on TV as a youngster.
Somewhere around college age somebody got me into the books, and I read through the entire set (I think).
However, I haven't been good at all about keeping up with stage or screen versions. I'm not even sure I've seen A STUDY IN TERROR, which sounds nice. I did just recently buy the set of all the Rathbone films on Blu-ray and I look forward to cracking that open one of these days.
-
It's not Friday yet, is it?
-
TOD:
My favorite Sherlock Holmes?
Hmmm....
I wonder who that could be.
::)
-
If you enjoy the British music hall genre, give a listen to last Friday's Friday Night is Music Night. It's a lot of fun. It's only available until about 3pm EST.
Music Halls Friday Night is Music Night (http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b01jghlv/Friday_Night_is_Music_Night_They_Played_the_Alls/)
-
The truth is that my interest in Basil Rathbone was not so much his Sherlock Holmes movies, but the swashbucklers he made with Errol Flynn and Tyrone Power. However, it was, of course, the Holmes films that made the book (and now my stage play) good sellers.
-
My favorite non-Rathbone Holmes movie is WITHOUT A CLUE w/Michael Caine and Ben Kingsley
-
Thursday morning greetings! Like DR Elmore, I woke up early this morning thinking about a lot of things that need to be done. This afternoon we're taking my Mom shopping.
-
Good morning, all.
No, it isn't, Kerry. But we can wish, can't we?
-
Elmore, is an unpeasant response the same as a royal response?
-
And the word of the day is: TINNIENT!
And The Song Of The Day Is: RING THEM BELLS
-
Add me to the list of Basil Rathbone watchers from childhood. One of the channels would show a different Holmes every Sunday afternoon after we got home from church. I was in about seventh or eighth grade and it got me to read the stories then.
Favorite Sherlocks: Rathbone, Nicol Williamson and Benedict Cumberbatch with special mention to Buster Keaton for Sherlock Jr.
Here's a link to a full showing of Sherlock Jr.

Beautiful photos from DR LAURA yesterday.....
Glad to hear Edith is better DR CILLA LIZ.
Juan roasted Jodi to a nice turn yesterday.

TOD:
First saw The Hound of the Baskervilles with Mr Rathbone on late night TV. And then watched all of them in the series.
I like A Study In Terror.....and I like ALL versions of the HOUND.....DR CP wrote a very nice version. My least favorite is probably the Christopher Lee/Peter Cushing version.....
I have read a SH Collection.....and even of the stories HOUND is my favorite.
-
I also like the new Cumberbatch Holmes and I sort of like ELEMENTARY the tv series because I like Jonny Lee Miller and Lucy Liu.
-
TOD: In the movies, I like Rathbone best. I am also enjoying Jonny Lee Miller's take on the character in "Elementary".
-
TOD:
The only Sherlock Holmes films I have seen are the Basil Rathbone/Nigel Bruce ones, but I don't know which was my first....maybe PEARL OF DEATH...I know that one was always my favorite. I began watching them when I was in grade school as they were playing every Saturday morning.
One day I should take some time to see the Hammer versions.
-
Elmore, is an unpeasant response the same as a royal response?
I don't know!

I read all the Holmes stories when I was about 12 years old. The first Holmes film I saw was the 1959 "Hound of the Baskervilles", although I didn't much care for Peter Cushing as Holmes. My favorite Holmes is Douglas Wilmer from the 1964 BBC TV series and who looked exactly like the original Strand Magazine illustrations of the character. Now in his 90s he was in the last episode of the BBC "Sherlock"
I saw "A Study in Terror" when it was first released but didn't much care for it. It was an over-sensationalised Holmes film - at least for 1965. It received a British X ceritificate.

I think Peter Cushing and the Baskerville Hound are my first memories of Sherlock Holmes. I'm very fond of A STUDY IN TERROR; it may have been my first exposure to Robert Morely who was very funny as Mycroft.

Correction: Richard and I are not taking my Mother shopping. We are going to pick up her list and credit card and go shopping for her. She's just not up to it - a new trend, I'm afraid...

Which email service do you use, DR John G.?

DR John G, I am sorry to hear your bad news. I just got your email:
Good Day
It takes me great pain to write this mail to you and i feel so devastated...
Both My family and I are stuck in Manila, Philippines at the moment. We are on a short trip to Philippines and unfortunately we got robbed last night, it was terrible and so scary... Cash,credit cards and cell phone were stolen but luckily for us no one was hurt and we still have our passports.
I am really having some difficulties clearing our hotel bills and also need to pick up a voucher ticket at the counter for us to catch a flight back home as soon as possible.
All we need right now is $1,850 USD but anything you can spare pending when we get things straightened out will be appreciated and I promise to refund you as soon as we arrive home safely. Western union is the best way to get money across to me.
Kindly email me back to let you know the remittance info.
I look forward to read from you.
The check is in the mail!

the laundry is in the washers and I am waiting on the plumber. My radiator is leaking into the apartment below. What a pile of crap!
-
I am not a Catholic and I don't care what anyone's religious beliefs are so long as they don't threaten my life and my health, but I am sick of this pope nonsense. As long as those folk in the Vatican insist on keeping their church in the dark ages and behaving hypocritically over the scandalous behavior of some of their representatives inthe priesthood and the convent, I'll only be interested in what they have to say when the pope picks up his skirts and leads that church into the nineteenth century. It's too much to hope those old queens will ever get to the 21st.
-
That should liven things up today!
-
DR John G, I am sorry to hear your bad news. I just got your email:

That DR Elmore is all heart!

Totally agree, re Catholic Church.
And I've got no horse in this race.
-
DR JOHN G has your camera turned up yet?
-
DR RLP - yesterday DR DOUG R was talking about having TOO many DVD's. I think that you have solved that problem.....you might tell him how you store your disks.
-
I like A STUDY IN TERROR....and since it was a Herman Cohen production.....I looked for the cast member who most likely was chased around the desk.....it didn't take long to find him.

The world is waiting for that Herman Cohen bio! And I'd bet that DR MBarnum is waiting for the one chased around the desk.

Topic of the Day:
My first Holmes film was probably "The Adventure of Sherlock Holmes' Smarter Brother." The first Holmes movie that I bought was "The Seven-Per-Cent Solution." The first, and so far only, Holmes stage version was when I was involved in the 3-person version of "The Hound of the Baskervilles" a couple of years ago. That was so much fun!
As for favorites, I remember really liking both the previously mentioned movies and play, as well as "They Might Be Giants," and the Benedict Cumberbatch British TV version, as well as the cast recordings of Baker Street and the Leslie Bricusse musical version (I only know these from the recordings). I haven't seen the Jonny Lee Miller version.
That's all the Holmes that I can remember experiencing.

JohnG - I just dropped in and will catch up later, but I had hand-delivered to you a Manila envelope with an address to go to where a chiropractor will be able to straighten you out. Did i read your concerns right? So glad I could help. you can always count on us.
I'll catch up later but so glad we're here and you're there and we could eb here for you.
-
Does the Gerry Raffrety song BAKER STREET count?
-
The laundry is finished and I am waiting on the arrival of the plumber. My plans for my day off have certainly gone to hell.
-
Happy Pi Day!
-
DR John I hope you find your camera.
-
And he has arrived. He's seeing the super to have the boiler turned off.
-
From DR Cilla:
thank you. She was at work today and feeling a lot better
Good to hear.
-

I guess I need to watch this movie.
-
"Waiting for the Arrival of the Plumber" is the title of my next steamy novel.
-
...I blame all of my posts today on allergies.
-
From DR Laura:
I know, Jane. Someone unfriended me once that I know of. I figured it out. I had hurt feelings for a while. I guess I'd rather not know if someone unfriends me.
I've only had one real friend unfriend me. A few others did & I was just fine with it or, in one situation, understood the person was reducing their FB friend to their personal friends.
It is hard not to notice when someone is posting on a regular basis and then stops. My first instinct is to make sure the person is ok.

From DR George:
I've only unfriended a couple of people because I didn't really know them. They were friends of friends who, for whatever reason, wanted to be friends with me. Their updates didn't interest me, so I put an end to that. I have five friend requests that I haven't responded to. I don't know who they are at all, so why would they want to be Facebook friends??
I've had tons of those through the Bernese Mountain Dog community which I'm still involved, which is why I limited my acceptances to those I am aware of my name and have had conversations with through friends.
What I don't get is sending an invite to someone that doesn't know you without including a message to introduce yourself.
-
NO MORE PANIC ATTACK VIBES FOR DR ELMORE!!
-
There was only one time that I noticed that someone had unfriended me on Facebook, and that was only because someone told me that this person had unfriended me.
It was a childhood buddy of mine (5th through 8th grade) who found out I was gay and decided he didn't want to be Facebook friends any longer. He also unfriended a mutual friend who is gay, but he kept the mutual straight friend from our old gang of four.
It was too bad as the four of us hadn't seen each other in almost 30 years and managed to find each other on Facebook.
It didn't hurt my feelings, however. In fact I hadn't even noticed he was missing from my Facebook feed as he didn't really post very often.

I still recommend that all Sherlock Holmes fans watch the eerie 1962 Indian version of HOUND OF THE BASKERVILLES titled BEES SAAL BAAD...it is a terrific film.

Today I was at WalMart - and they had DJANGO UNCHAINED Blu Rays and DVD's for sale.... But the movie isn't being released until April 16. What are they selling in those packages?
There was something about seeing the movie early on some service.....but if I hadn't read the package carefully, I would have thought I was buying the Blu Ray....I still don't understand what it was.
-
The one bit of good news today is that I've heard from the recording producer's assistant Jeanne, whom I like very much; the second act of DEAREST ENEMY should arrive via sendspace today.
The plumber has finished the first round of the job, and he's gone off to get a valve and to turn on the boiler. I hope he returns soon because the boiler is back on and it's steaming up the apartmetn and it's getting hotter than hell.

Maybe it's like buying a ticket in advance. That way you're guaranteed a copy the day it is released.
-
I finished the second disk of WEST POINT - they definitely decided to add the gals to the stories....to the detriment of the show.
However Mr Race Gentry did make another appearance....and Mr Larry Hagman appeared in the first scene of one episode.
DR JOHN G - that makes sense....but why package it EXACTLY like a Blu Ray or DVD....I mean, I would guess some people will pick it up thinking they are getting the movie....I ALMOST did.....
-
The plumber has gone, I've cleaned up the detritus, vacuumed, put a screen in one of my windows, and spoken to Joshie. Tomorrow I'll go to the Encores! orchestra rehearsal and meet his parents, who are in for the weekend. I'll try to grab a moment with Rob Berman about the ROBERTA megillah.

It is hard not to notice when someone is posting on a regular basis and then stops. My first instinct is to make sure the person is ok.
My cousin's new wife was very active on facebook and then just closed up her account. IT was very odd. Because one day you'd get a bunch of posts from her a day and then the next she was gone. Personally if i ever did that i would make a post saying i was not going to be on facebook anymore. I wouldn't just delete my account/unfriend everyone.
-
Some people temporarily delete their Facebook account when they are job hunting or while going through a divorce...the latter is the case with one of my relatives whose attorney recommended he do so.
-
Back from a four-mile jog. Difficult doesn't exactly do it justice - I thought I was literally going to die.
-
I would say divorce or death would be the only way to get some people off Facebook.

The visitation coming to Larry on the major event day in Vatican City - I worry that a parody lyric for "A Call from the Vatican" may be coming on, maybe I should get some coffee before I'm moved to actually do soemthing about that.

I do find that strange when it happens. I have read posts by people saying they are either shutting down or reducing the number of friends. I acknowledge the post & say I understand.
Out of those FB friends I suspected I might be in the "cut" group it seems acknowledging them kept me in the loop.
-

Someone I know, that I thought was in a happy relationship, mentioned she was looking for a new place. Then she deactivated her account. Next time I see her parent's I'll have to ask but I figured it wasn't a good sign when she left FB.

But you're not crazy, DR ChasSmith! My mother was. This is why we never had replacement lighbulbs, or exra roles of toilet paper. Too many mornings, because she went to the store for milk and came back with everything but milk, we went to school with no breakfast,

So this is really weird...but fun. I'm listening to "Juliana Hansen - Live at Sterling’s Upstairs at the Federal (http://www.kritzerland.com/juliana.htm) while perusing a t-shirt website, SnorgTees.com (http://www.snorgtees.com/), and at the exact moment that she started singing "There's a Fine, Fine Line", I clicked on the link to THIS (http://www.snorgtees.com/t-shirts/there-is-a-fine-line-between-numerator-and-denominator) t-shirt:
(http://mediacdn.snorgcontent.com/media/catalog/product/f/i/finelinebetween_fullpic_4.jpg)
That seems to happen to me quite often: I'll be listening to a song and the moment I hear a word in the song, I see it on the screen of whatever I'm reading...more often than what would seem to me to be just coincidence.
Spooooooky! ;)

Sounds awful! The only veggies I like on my pizza are sausage and mushrooms

I also need to get to the gym....
Got a date in the steam room?

Here is one of the Chinese restaurants in Salem, Oregon, 97303 (north side of town...not the good side of town)

Kind of looks like the kind of place where you might not really be eating chicken, doesn't it?
-
Okay, that is the biggest picture I've seen on HHW.
Had to scroll way over to the right to see where they bring in the cats and dogs.
-
LOL! That picture kept being huge...I have now replaced it with another, more suitably sized photo.

Love this one. God, I so miss REAL neighborhood sit-down Chinese restaurants.
-
Of course that one was on Collins Ave. in Miami Beach, so not really a neighborhood jernt, but you know what I mean.

However, that is not the Chinese restaurant Jim and I are going to. We are going to the one that services pork belly, kidney, pig stomach, and tripe.

I am convinced the high dust content in the Costco litter killed one of my cats. I hope they have improved the quality of the litter.
I don't use Costco litter anymore...it's just too dusty for me. I get Arm & Hammer Essentials (http://www.amazon.com/Arm-Hammer-Essentials-Clumping-10-5-Pounds/dp/B001FK61BQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1363304874&sr=8-1&keywords=arm+%26+hammer+essentials+cat+litter). Fortunately, Ebonie (my cat) and I both like it. I get it at Fred Meyer for less than what Amazon has it for.

Portland, Oregon has a bunch of those DR ChasSmith. They all look like holdovers from the Cold War era....and some of them are.

They service kidneys or serve kidneys? That's offal!

So this is really weird...but fun. I'm listening to "Juliana Hansen - Live at Sterling’s Upstairs at the Federal (http://www.kritzerland.com/juliana.htm) while perusing a t-shirt website, SnorgTees.com (http://www.snorgtees.com/), and at the exact moment that she started singing "There's a Fine, Fine Line", I clicked on the link to THIS (http://www.snorgtees.com/t-shirts/there-is-a-fine-line-between-numerator-and-denominator) t-shirt:

That seems to happen to me quite often: I'll be listening to a song and the moment I hear a word in the song, I see it on the screen of whatever I'm reading...more often than what would seem to me to be just coincidence.
Spooooooky! ;)

Good. This is much better. Craig was always trying various natural litters for Kitty. Some bothered my allergies so he would switch. Kitty seemed fine with all of them.

That is one dreadful movie! I think itwas Leonard Maltin's review that said "Orloff is awful."

Good morning, all! Around 5:45 I had a panic attack about ROBERTA and the fact that I am currently in conductor hell, and that was the end of my sleeping. Around 6:45, I figured to hell with it, bathed, and dressed. In another hour or so, I'll do the week's laundry, mop the bathroom and plan my next course of action.
There's been no fallout from yesterday's spectral visitation, or whatever it was, so I'm still unsure of what was going on there. I've just sent the recording producer an inquiry into when we'd hear the rest of the DEAREST ENEMY, which I'm certain will get me a terse, unpeasant response. Color me discontent today.
I hate it when I wake up in a panic over a case. Different details, same feeling Vibes it gets better

I get the clumping one, Simplicity Plus. It can raise a cloud of dust if I pour a bunch into the pan from on high, but after that it's fine and they've been using it nicely for a few years.

From DR Laura:
I know, Jane. Someone unfriended me once that I know of. I figured it out. I had hurt feelings for a while. I guess I'd rather not know if someone unfriends me.
I've only had one real friend unfriend me. A few others did & I was just fine with it or, in one situation, understood the person was reducing their FB friend to their personal friends.
It is hard not to notice when someone is posting on a regular basis and then stops. My first instinct is to make sure the person is ok.
From time to time I've cut down on the number of friends on facebook. I don't decide it by who is a real friend. If they don't ever post I may unfriend them. It's like having an eavesdropper, just listening and reading and never saying a word. That's kind of creepy.
If all they ever post is political stuff or stuff I'm not interested in at all, I have unfriended them. I did that for several people during the last election. Some I have sent a new friend invitation, some I haven't. I had a friend who was commenting negatively on everything I was posting....I don't need that on my facebook, so I'd deleted her comments. The response was that I would never let anyone disagree with me....so I unfriended her. It is my facebook page, she can say anything she wants to on her page she didn't need to be snarky on mine.
I just think people need to quit taking it personally. It may not be

I'm ok with disagreeing, but snarky isn't right.
I have a good number of family & long time friends who don't use FB much. I'm ok with them not using it much. I have questioned those who asked me to be their friend and then don't converse. Those are the ones I remove.
I've been pretty lucky on the whole with people who see things differently than I do.

I think I'll let everyone know about our two releases now - they'll be live on the site at six am, but if you want them sooner, each title is 19.98 plus 3.75 shipping (if you order both, the 3.75 covers two CDs). Just do paypal.com, put in our address, which is kritzerland at adelphia dot net and tally it up and please put the title of the CD you're ordering in the invoice. This was an amazingly special thing to do, and I can't think of another instance of this ever happening before with ANY release - and you know, we're all about THAT! One film soundtrack, and one cast album, the cast album being the musical version of the film!
Kritzerland is proud to present a new limited edition soundtrack CD release of an all-time classic score to an all-time classic film:
HOW GREEN WAS MY VALLEY
Music Composed and Conducted by Alfred Newman
Richard Llewellyn’s 1939 novel, How Green Was My Valley, was a popular success, so much so that Twentieth Century-Fox purchased the screen rights immediately and released their Academy Award-winning film version just two years later. And what a film it was – lyrical, poetic, beautiful, dramatic, heartwarming, funny – with a perfect cast including Walter Pidgeon, Maureen O’Hara, Donald Crisp, and young Roddy McDowell. Add to that the simple yet majestic direction by John Ford and you had a film that audiences flocked to and loved and have loved ever since, generation to generation, on television, and then home video and now Blu-ray. The film won the 1941 Best Picture Oscar (over Citizen Kane), as well as Oscars for direction, supporting actor, cinematography and art direction. It received five other nominations, including one for the magnificent and magical score by Alfred Newman.
Newman’s score stands high at the top of his many brilliant achievements. His main theme is one of the most memorable and beautiful works he ever created. The score is simply one brilliant cue after another, each capturing the humanity and warmth of the characters, setting the mood, underscoring the drama and pathos and humor as only Alfred Newman could.
The previous Arista CD release of How Green Was My Valley, which has been out-of-print for many, many years, was almost but not quite complete. The previous release was taken from a premixed and assembled 1/4" element that had been retained by Len Engel. This new Kritzerland edition comes from Fox's archival 1/4" rolls made in the 1980s off the first generation optical film, and was newly restored, mixed, and assembled, allowing for the opening up of many of the cues that had previously been combined together. Most of the cues were recorded with separate close-up and long shot perspectives, allowing for the creation of a stereo presence. Other cues were recorded with monaural sound only. The score is presented chronologically, with mono and stereo material indexed separately. The sound is much improved save for only two cues, the main and end title, which were available to us only in the condition they were in. Happily, the main title is very short and is completely vocal with no orchestra – once that’s done we settle in to the beautiful, lush, rich sound that was a Fox and Alfred Newman trademark. As a bonus we present the end title in stereo without the vocal. The film was recently released on Blu-ray and the CD is a perfect companion to it.
And be sure to check out our other release, which is A Time For Singing, the musical version of How Green Was My Valley – how often can that happen? A Time For Singing has a score by John Morris and lyrics by Gerald Freedman and Morris. A perfect way to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day!
How Green Was My Valley is limited to 1000 copies only. The price is $19.98, plus shipping.
CD will ship the last week of April but preorders placed at Kritzerland usually ship one to five weeks early (we’ve been averaging four weeks). To place an order, see the cover, or hear audio samples, just visit www.kritzerland.com.

And our second release, the musical version of How Green Was My Valley, and one of the only Holy Grail unreleased cast albums getting its first-ever CD release:
Kritzerland is extremely happy to announce a new limited edition cast album, the first-ever CD release for:
A TIME FOR SINGING
Original Broadway Cast Recording
Music by John Morris
Lyrics by Gerald Freedman and John Morris
Richard Llewellyn’s 1939 novel, How Green Was My Valley, was a popular success, so much so that Twentieth Century-Fox purchased the screen rights immediately and released their Academy Award-winning film version just two years later. The film itself is very musical, with its beautiful score by Alfred Newman, and a lot of townspeople singing a lot of tunes. So, it must have seemed a natural for such a musical property to be turned into an actual musical, and in 1966 that’s exactly what happened with the aptly retitled A Time for Singing. The team responsible for musicalizing How Green Was My Valley was first-time Broadway composer John Morris, and first-time book and lyric writers Gerald Freedman and Morris.
An impressive cast was assembled, including Shani Wallis, Laurence Naismith, Tessie O’Shea, and Ivor Emmanuel. The choreographer was Donald McKayle, and the sets were by the great Ming Cho Lee, lighting by Jean Rosenthal, and costumes by Theoni V. Aldredge. Orchestrations were by Don Walker and the musical direction by Jay Blackton – in other words, a Class A cast and creative team straight down the line. A Time for Singing opened on Broadway on May 21, 1966 after ten previews. The show received humdrum reviews and closed after only forty-one performances. Over the years, a cult has grown for A Time for Singing, thanks to its excellent cast recording that was issued by Warner Bros. Records. The score is beloved by hordes of theater music fans and the album was always a sought-after collector’s item. It has taken a long time to bring it to CD, and we’re thrilled to be the ones to do it. Perhaps the show will be rediscovered – certainly the score is worthy of rediscovery, with John Morris’s lush and beautiful music, and excellent lyrics by Morris and Freedman.
For this first-ever CD release, the original album masters were used – they were in pristine condition and the sound is absolutely stunning. So, here, finally, is A Time for Singing and it is indeed truly a time for singing.
Check out our companion release – the first time ever complete soundtrack release to How Green Was My Valley, the source for A Time For Singing. Score by Alfred Newman. Get both – a perfect way to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day!
This edition is limited to 1500 copies only. The price is $19.98 plus shipping.
CDs will ship the last week of April, however we may get them in earlier and if so will ship immediately. No promises, but that’s always our hope. To place an order, see the cover, or hear audio samples, just visit www.kritzerland.com.

If this is what's in the New York times, the real juicy scoop must be even juicier!
-
What puzzles me is that the mere fact that the publicist did what he did under a false name seems to suggests that he knew what he was doing was somehting he didn;lt want the producers of the show to know he was doing, o it was something he was trying to do without them knowing about it WHILE he was working for them. Doesn't that pretty much say he was betraying them and knew it?

But i guess that's what the judge will decide.

George, from that perspective, well worth it. (It's a 90-minute episode, though, just FYI.)

I saw "A Study in Terror" when it was first released but didn't much care for it. It was an over-sensationalised Holmes film - at least for 1965. It received a British X ceritificate.
I read this as you saw this movie when you were first released. I was thinking TMI.

Oh, those lovely CDs. Definitely ordering both. Especially can't wait to hear the musical, of which I believe I know nothing.

DR John G, I am sorry to hear your bad news. I just got your email:
Good Day
It takes me great pain to write this mail to you and i feel so devastated...
Both My family and I are stuck in Manila, Philippines at the moment. We are on a short trip to Philippines and unfortunately we got robbed last night, it was terrible and so scary... Cash,credit cards and cell phone were stolen but luckily for us no one was hurt and we still have our passports.
I am really having some difficulties clearing our hotel bills and also need to pick up a voucher ticket at the counter for us to catch a flight back home as soon as possible.
All we need right now is $1,850 USD but anything you can spare pending when we get things straightened out will be appreciated and I promise to refund you as soon as we arrive home safely. Western union is the best way to get money across to me.
Kindly email me back to let you know the remittance info.
I look forward to read from you.
The check is in the mail!
I am so sorry to read of your problems, John.

From DR George:
I've only unfriended a couple of people because I didn't really know them. They were friends of friends who, for whatever reason, wanted to be friends with me. Their updates didn't interest me, so I put an end to that. I have five friend requests that I haven't responded to. I don't know who they are at all, so why would they want to be Facebook friends??
I've had tons of those through the Bernese Mountain Dog community which I'm still involved, which is why I limited my acceptances to those I am aware of my name and have had conversations with through friends.
What I don't get is sending an invite to someone that doesn't know you without including a message to introduce yourself.
Well I couldn't send a message when I asked Ms. Streisand to friend me, because she already had that restraining order.
-
The plumber has gone, I've cleaned up the detritus, vacuumed, put a screen in one of my windows, and spoken to Joshie. Tomorrow I'll go to the Encores! orchestra rehearsal and meet his parents, who are in for the weekend. I'll try to grab a moment with Rob Berman about the ROBERTA megillah.
I thought you were his parents?
-
One of the soldiers killed in the helicopter crash in Afghanistan last Monday was from my home town. I didn't know him or his parents, but my brother told me the young man who died was in Boy Scouts the same time my nephew Adam was. It think Adam is about 3 or 4 year solder than Steve. Really sad. He was married and had a very young son.
-
Max Preeo just posted the info on ordering A TIME FOR SINGING on Castrecl. I just ordered the CD.
Why did I think that Kritzerland was going to release this CD?
-
The Department of Defense hasn't announced who the people were yet, so apparently the city can't ask to lower the flag to half staff until they do. Now how stupid is that. Everyone in town already knows about it.
-
Well, it's been an interesting day. It was 58 degrees on my car thermometer when I came home from work. The walk that I struggled to shovel this morning now has no snow beside it. Sheesh! I should have scheduled the repair men for Friday, then I wouldn't have had to clear the path!
-
Beautiful pi/es, Laura.

Night, all.

I'm sorry for the loss of your soldier, Cillaliz. We lost a sailor today as well.

PAGE 8 DANCE!!

One of the soldiers killed in the helicopter crash in Afghanistan last Monday was from my home town. I didn't know him or his parents, but my brother told me the young man who died was in Boy Scouts the same time my nephew Adam was. It think Adam is about 3 or 4 year solder than Steve. Really sad. He was married and had a very young son.
That's terrible. My condolences to his family.

George, from that perspective, well worth it. (It's a 90-minute episode, though, just FYI.)
Darn...I forgot to watch it, but I set my DVR to record the rebroadcast. :)
