Good morning, all! I slept late, and now I'm ready to head to Toyland and the NYPL. My rehearsal is tonight, with the band, 8-11. so I'll come back here in the late afternoon, deal with mail and whatever fresh hell awaits here, then head back downtown.
I'm taking my new Sondhem discs with me, and I shall give them a good listen.
Where is our DR Jose?
-
Wednesday morning greetings! My day-of-days has begun smoothly - now I have a couple of hours here at my desk before going upstairs to host a program, introduce the speaker, and leave for Columbus.
My Sondheim CDs are in the car and I listened to most of disc 1 on the way in this morning. Love it!
-
...Where is our DR Jose?
Been wondering the same thing myself.
DR Elmore - hope the rehearsal goes well tonight.

BIG BROTHER RESULTS SPOILERS from last night.

I love will but don't really care for boogie. But of the two (erika or boogie) I was very happy that the latter won. I would have much preferred for janelle or will to win. But if the only choices were mike or erika then to me there was no contest.
And it's funny that so many are disgusted by mike. Cause i'm equally disgusted by erika.
I had predicted a 5-2 win (wasn't sure about marcellas, george and howie). I thought one or two of them would vote for erika.
It was interesting to see that george decided to vote for the best player vs who needed the money the most. I was not sure if he would do that (i thought he would but was not sure).
And then howie saying why would he vote for someone with 5 restaurants (and hating boogie) but he still voted for him.
I thought it was sort of humorous that erika's nemesis (alison) got to tell her about what mike had done.
And it was fitting that america's choice (janelle) winning ended the show.
As for mike saying it was the editing, well part of that is correct. Those harsh comments were taken right after will was voted out. Plus i think over the last few days he had come clean about a bunch of the stuff (to erika).
It's a shame that the finale couldn't have been janelle/will (now that would have been very interesting). Or at least will/boogie.

DR Elmore - hope the rehearsal goes well tonight.
Thank you, dear! Masae, the keyboard player, played last night's rehearsal with the pianist, so I think we'll be more solid that I hoped tonight.

Good morning!
It's going to be a dreary day here with rain, rain, rain. It's cool, so I like that, but the rain puts a gloomy cast on things. It's also going to start heating back up after today. By the end of the week, we'll be back in the mid 80s. Argh!
-
Three wonderfully entertaining shows for me to see tonight: BONES, JUSTICE, and PROJECT RUNWAY. Until then, I need to watch some of the movies I've been accumulating on the DVR. I still have those two Mario Lanza films from last week I haven't gotten to yet, BRIEF ENCOUNTER from the weekend, SHOCK TREATMENT in HD from the early morning hours, and I saw the DVR recording something this morning that I don't even remember what I had selected.
-
My gosh, Carol Reed had a run of three masterpieces in the late 1940s: ODD MAN OUT, THE THIRD MAN, and THE FALLEN IDOL. You don't get much better than those three classics.

GOing to lunch today with friends, too, so that will cut into my viewing time somewhat.

To quote someone or other, "Nuh-UH!" True, one of those comments was made after Will left....but he made far more, and worse, comments about Erika BEFORE Will left.
He was covering his ass to keep Erika from getting angry during the show.
Of course he played her and dissed her all along. It had NOTHING to do with Will's ouster (which Janelle was equally responsible for...if not moreso, since it was HER vote that evicted him).

I wonder if the votes would have been the same if they had heard Mike calling Erica a ho and saying he used her up for what she was good for before they voted rather than afterwards.
I dislike Janelle much more after seeing the House Calls and the way she acts on the final show.

Big brother talk.
Mike Boogie, Erika and JAnelle are on The View today.
Should be interesting since rosie watches the show. But she thinks mike is vile and janelle is her favorite.
DR Cillaliz i guess you are not a janelle fan anymore. But i loved janelle on the finale and housecalls. I find she is sweet and charming.
-
Ha, DR RLP i wrote my comments before reading yours.
It's funny to me that we both agree so completely on this! :)
-

I just don't get that. To me she seems cold, calculating, very jealous of Erica and a sore loser. I wouldn't trust her at all. I know I'm in the minority on this one, but I don't see her as being a nice person.

Good morning, good day.
I must have been very tired last night and forgot to lock the topic - that must be why I slept until ten, which I really, really needed to do. I awoke to plenty o' e-mails, including one from paypal that I'm now dealing with on the phone. Seems when I registered the domain name for the book and asked the domain place to host it, they used an old paypal account instead of the only one I use now. I called them and it turns out they have three on file and the guy just used the first one he saw - had he told me there were three we could have figured out which to use right then, but, no, he just used the first he saw. I'd already used the correct one to actually register the name, so it was easy to click on the LAST paypal address and see that that charge was there and had gone through fine. I'm now on hold with "billing" (for twelve minutes) and they'll straighten it out for me.

Yes, Janelle seemed jealous of Erika, especially after Janelle was evicted. I didn't get those vibes from Erika at all. She was a floater and didn't have much choice, she was used by Mike Boogie, and I believe she really cared for him. She played the game and got to the end. I'm glad she'll at least have the $50,000. Outside the house, I would trust her more than Janelle

I didn't watch much of it last night, but I did think that he was the worst of the ones that I did see, but he seemed to actually have the most fun of all. :)

Domain issue has been taken care of and defunct paypal accounts have been removed from the account info and all is well and now I shall attempt to jog prior to doing some errands.

Yes...he did all the steps...for half the dance. But...he lacked....grace/rhythm.
He looked like a football player trying to perform ballet.

Ah, the problems cause by divorce.
In this case, it's the split between Patrick O'Connell and Reynhardt Lynch, the owners of The Inn at Little Washington, one of the top-ranked restaurants in the country.
As reported in the Washington Post (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/09/12/AR2006091201593.html)
Now, the partners are in the midst of a contentious split that has rocked the town, much of which they own. O'Connell is seeking to sever all professional ties with Lynch, reports our colleague Walter Nicholls. In court papers filed last May in Rappahannock County, O'Connell seeks to fire Lynch and take control of all the Inn's business affairs.
"It has not been a secret that Reinhardt and I discontinued our 'personal' relationship some years ago, but most people have respected our right to privacy in these matters," O'Connell said in an e-mail yesterday. "The Inn has always been like our child and neither of us would ever do anything to harm it. It has continued to flourish and its stars shine brighter than ever, evidenced by our #1 ratings in all categories in the just released 2007 Washington DC Restaurant Zagat Survey. Trust me, the food is better than ever."
Lynch declined to comment.
Hmmm... Is Lynch declining to comment on the split, or O'Connell's assertion about the food?
-

That was very true...but then the actual football player was pretty good.

I am missing Dancing With the Stars.....ahhh....doing theatre is like working the night shift at the factory - you miss the same tv shows.
And Pwoject Wunway is on tonight, I will be home to catch the midnight repeat.
-
Good news about preorders for the book! Looking forward to it.
Haven't gotten to listen to SONDHEIM yet....grrrrrrrrrrrrr.....maybe tonight.
-
Off to sell tickets and THEN do a show.
-
So, did anyone vote on Dancing with the Stars
I didn't get a chance to vote last night (i was watching big brother). But i probably will in the future.
The worst dancers will not be the ones to go (most probably). Since they can be popular. I think tucker is very well known, so he probably won't go (although does he actually have fans?).
I thought the best dancer of the night was mario. There are a bunch of people who have potential (willa, joey, ...).
I was actually very surprised by jerrry springer. He put so much effort into it and was so much better than i thought he would be.
I also really liked Vivica.
I don't really have a favorite yet. But i'm sure i will.
-
big brother.

Outside the house, I would trust her more than Janelle
I also don't think that janelle was jealous of erika. Why would she be? America adores janelle and thinks erika is useless. I think perhaps janelle was annoyed that someone like erika could float through the game without making any real moves till the end.
Erika had a wonderful chance to be great. America loved her for one week (the week when she and janelle worked together to dump the guys). But then she pathetically went back to boogie and lost all respect she had gotten.

Well, let's just agree to disagree on this one. ok?

I agree with you about Mario being the best dancer. Emmit Smith was pretty darned good too.

-
DR Cillaliz, of course it doesn't matter what either of us think about janelle or erika. It's just funny to me. Cause i usually try to read the people on this board. And for example while people like DR MBarnum always cheer for the nicer people. It just surprised me how much you disliked janelle this year. I read a lot of people on the big brother boards who dislike her. And they are just so mean about it (not that you are). I guess i just didn't expect your opinion to be so strong (if that makes any sense).
Oh and re: emmitt smith. I thought he was decent. And having cheryl really helped. I guess i just don't think he can get to the finals. His moves were okay. But he has this weird (non-dancer) body. And i just can't ever see him being really great.
But that said the judges loved him.
-
Settling down to do some writing now.
-
RE: BB All Stars,
I was a bit disappointed in how Janelle was reacting towards Erika...I didn't understand why she was being so hateful...that said, I still wish that Janelle and Will had been the two that were up at the end...neither Erika or Boogie deserved to win.
And it was funny, yet strangly discomforting, to see James squirm during the scenes they showed of him saying mean things about Janelle.
-
Now I am excited for THE AMAZING RACE and SURVIVOR to begin!!!!
-
I noticed on the BBC channel that they have a few British reality shows...one called SHIPWRECK seems to be sort of SURVIVOR-like....and judging from the previews of shows that air on the BBC, it would appear that British television is just as trashy, if not more so, then American TV! LOL!
-
I'm also writing - and trying to deal with an aching back. Not the best combo.
...Just saw on the internet news that a Columbine type shooting was taking place at a college in Montreal. Young men in black trenchcoats... What a world!
Back to the world of make-believe. Much easier to live in.

Mario Lopez has been taking dance lessons for years, so it's no surprise that he's very good. (I didn't watch the show; I read this in TV GUIDE.)
-
This afternoon I watched BLACK WIDOW. No, not the version with Debra Winger. This was the 1954 version with Ginger Rogers, Van Heflin, Gene Tierney, and Reginald Gardiner.
I had never seen this movie before, and in order to see it today, I had to break one of my cardinal rules about not watching pan and scan versions of films. BLACK WIDOW was an early Cinemascope Fox feature, but the version off the Fox Movie Channels was P&S, and, of course, it was wretched looking. Loping off 40% of the frame and blowing what was left up to fit a 4:3 frame does dreadful things to focus, color, and sharpness. But, I wanted to see this movie after all these years, so I suffered through it.
As a mystery it's pretty predictable, and one wonders what someone like Alfred Hitchcock could have done with this "wrong man accused" scenario. Still, I'm glad I saw it. It's definitely Van Heflin's show. Ginger Rogers may have top billing, but she has little better than a supporting role in the movie.
-
Instead of starting another film on the DVR, I put in the Criterion laserdisc of KING KONG to listen to Ron Haver's commentary. I've had this disc for many, many years, and yet I had NEVER listened to the commentary track. During the first half of the film, he deals perhaps a bit too much with the career of Merriam C. Cooper before KING KONG happened. Some of it was interesting, but some of it wasn't. Once he gets to the production of KONG itself, I found myself more involved with his lecture.
I got the first side listened to and will listen to the second side when I go back down later.
-
I added FANTASTIC FOUR in HD to the DVR for future viewing. I doubt with so much network TV tonight that I'll get to it today.
BTW, despite some dirt and damage, that Criterion laserdisc of KONG really looked very good. I'm very happy to have the very nice DVD of KONG, but if it hadn't come out, I could certainly live very happily with just the KONG laserdisc.

It has literally been raining here since 8:30 this morning. Hasn't stopped a second that I've noticed, but it's slowed down from what it was doing at lunchtime.
Still, we're very soggy today!
-
Now, I'm headed down to clean the den and finish the rest of the KING KONG commentary.
WBBL.

Okay, I'm off to the rehearsal. The VCR is taping PROJECT RUNWAY, and I'll watch it when I return.
I had an email from our DR Jose this morning. I think he will return to us soon.
-
DR Jose was on here briefly. But will he be in New York to greet his OZ friends?
-
Dear Esteemed, rested, productive, and "dodging the stuff" BK --
You will notice that I purposely didn't say " and stuffed BK -- " ........TomofOz will have to tell you why that would be so rude and terribly unseemly.
I'm really glad that you're going to have an Olvera Street adventure this weekend. It has also been ages since I was there, and yes, it was on a school field trip. Except we were bussed up all the way from (God, I even hate to say the name) Pico Riviera !!! It is sometimes known as the anus of Whittier!

Good Afternoon!
So... Just how many times have I been bitch-slapped from here and back over the past two weeks? ;)
Cabaret is going well. However, I've had a string of long days - and nights - and even though we open tomorrow night, I still have a bit of work to get done over the next few days - Can you say "understudy keys"? I don't think I've worked as hard on any show before, and I haven't ever been at the keyboard - the piano keyboard that is.
Again, the show has come together nicely, but, frankly, I'm just looking forward to a couple of Cabaret-free days. It's just not the type of show that holds up well after repeated viewings. It's just a hard show to watch eight times in a row. I don't know how the actors are able to go through such an emotional journey night after night - and twice on Saturdays and Sundays. -The Producers it ain't.
Otherwise, I'm doing fine, if just a bit tired mentally. It has been nice being back here in DC, but I do really miss NYC right now. I'm planning on going back up for a few days this weekend, and it will be nice to be "home" again. Once I get back to DC, it looks like I may be participating in a workshop of a new-ish play with music down here over the next two weeks. The change of pace - and piece - will be nice, and it will keep me off the streets. -At least during the day. ;)
So, that's the report for now. I really am sorry for being errant and truant and truant and errant. I just haven't had the energy to concentrate on much of anything after leaving the theatre each night. However, we have no day rehearsal tomorrow, so... :)
I hope everyone is doing well. Vibes and Wishes for all!

Welcome back DR Jose.

Hello, fellow Dear Readers.
My DH answered the telephone today, and it was the local funeral home, wondering if they could be of service to us in the near future. We thought it was a rather odd sales call. I wonder how often folks say, "Sure, come on over. We were just wondering what to do about Aunt Trudy."
-
Only MusicGuy knows about my secret passion for taxidermy.
Really? I had no idea MusicGuy communicated with anyone here other than BK.
;)
-
I'd been wondering how Aunt Trudy was DearReader Laura. I think her time is near. What a thoughtful call.
Were there any special deals offered - two for the price of one or a free wake when you build up enough frequent buriel points.
-
Ah! MusicGuy was "well known" in Melbourne in years gone by!
-

Did you cast your musical recordings like Night of the Hunter, Colette Collage, Drat! The Cat! and others like you'd cast the theater version?

Finally, a question. I refuse to answer!!! Only kidding.
NOTH and CC were cast collaboratively with the authors - but, yes, everyone on those recordings were perfect for their roles and the show.
Drat, I cast myself, as it was my baby. I do think everyone on the recording could do the show, with the exception of Elaine Stritch, who wasn't really right for her role, but who we wanted for her talent and name value.

DR Ron -- I often post a short "general" thought or idea or comment, and they are always meant for all of the H/Ks. It is just that I only have an "in person" and face to face friendship with a very few of the DRs here in BK's Living Room.
I actually don't know a lot about the current city location, and background of a lot of the DRs here.........I are just not reel edicated !

Thanks :D. You can see the left blue eye better in this photo.
-
The parents are both gorgeous, as well as the grandparents. All the puppies are exceptional. If it weren’t for the blue eye the breeder would keep him, along with three others.
We found a number of caring, contentious breeders that only breed healthy top quality dogs, as of course this one is. It is a shame all breeders aren’t like her.

Hello all! The puppy is adorable. Is it only an old wive's tale then that dogs with different colored eyes are always deaf?

The Vixter's ELA teacher (remember when it was English class, not" English Language Arts"? class) gave out her first written assignment of the year... she is having the kids write out an urban lengend in their own words, in three paragraphs using descriptiive language etc... it made me wonder how many urban legends we could call to mind...
-
Laters!

Vixmom-Yes. White cats with a blue are deaf on the side with the blue eye.
With Bernese Mountain Dogs there are no health issues with blues eyes, it is just a disqualification.

Adorable pups, Jane.

I think cats with two blue eyes are deaf. We had a kitten we found in the middle of a busy street that was deaf. It ran off a few weeks later.
We had a blue/green eyed cat for several years. Not deaf. And very smart.
-
The puppies are adorable. I miss my dog.

DR Tomovoz: Frequent burial plan. LOL.

It is STILL raining! It trailed off a bit during PROJECT RUNWAY's second half, but picked right up as I sat down at the computer.
I'll be curious to see rainfall totals tomorrow.

I finished the KING KONG laserdisc with the Ron Haver commentary. Got a lot more movie-specific on the second side of the disc. Enjoyed his information and opinions. I wish he were still around to contribute to more commentaries.
-
Next I watched the WILL & GRACE Thanksgiving episode where Will volunteers to cook for Vince's family. Probably the funniest of the Season 7 episodes since Grace and Karen both made out with Vince's 16 year old cousin (who looked considerably older and didn't tell them he was a minor), Jack forced Vince's sister to come out as a lesbian (with a Renee Zellweger fixation), and Will tried to make amends to Vince's mother for having an accident while tring on four inch pumps at his insistence.

BONES had a sad story tonight about foster kids and the difficulty of their finding an unprejudiced place in the world. There was a type of truce between Temprance and Cam tonight, but I still wish they hadn't brought in this new boss. It just adds another level of antagonism that the show doesn't really need.
-
JUSTICE had a fast moving hour which definitely shocked at the end as the crime was shown and the true murderer revealed. Didn't see that one coming!

Some PROJECT RUNWAY thoughts (no real spoilers)
1. Was completely surprised by the twist at the beginning and furious, too.
2. The person who won was my choice for the best dress tonight. Very happy for this person, but it certainly threw the competition wide open now between the remaining four.
-
Looking forward to having a day completely at home tomorrow. No lunches out planned and I'm expecting to be "a bum" tomorrow.
-
Haven't gotten any word from Amazon about any of the things I ordered this week having shipped (THE OFFICE, GREY'S ANATOMY, AGATHA CHRISTIE MYSTERY COLLECTION).

If the day the site went down is discounted (118 posts), then this post gets us to our all-time low.

And this moves us past it.

Don't know if I mentioned it, but late this afternoon I had my attic insulated. They found no bats in the attic - dead or alive - so the exclusion must be working. There was very little insulation up there and now I should be up to R 38 (from about R 5 - whatever that means). Anyway, I'm sure it will be a big improvement.
-
Now I just need to have the chimney sweep check the chimney and do some winterizing myself and I'll be set for winter. It's going to be 83 degrees tomorrow, but one can never be too prepared!
-
Heading off to bed now.
Good night!

DR Jane, I am very excited for you in regards to the new pup!!! Where do you have to go to pick him up at? Make sure he doesn't bite your Fed Ex man!
-
Also time to say g'night to all of the H/Ks out there in radioland !
Sleep well..................

Cute dogie.
The question is WHY? Why this errant and truant behavior? I thought the dog days of August were behind us and yet they seem not to be. Well, I suppose the errant and truant will show up with some excuse or another.
-
I'm here...finally. ::)
;D

George!! Good lender vibes !!
Thanks!! In the morning, I fax ALL of the information and forms to the lender and (like I've said before) unless something goes horribly wrong, they will give me the money and I will close the sale on October 2nd and be a condo owner!!

Tonight, I went to my parents' house for dinner and as soon as I got there, my mom and sister were leaving to check out the new Costco that opened up a couple of months ago, just three miles away from my parents' house.
-
About the only thing that we really stopped and looked at were washers and dryers. When I move, I'll need to get my own set. My mom said that I should get a top loading washer because it's a HELL of a lot cheaper than the front loaders, but my sister thinks that I should get a front loader because it uses less water (less filling...tastes great! ;)). Then as we walked away from them, my sister whispered to me that she'd pay for them! WOW! I won't argue with that. :D But I think I'll still go for the top loader. I don't really do laundry that often (I'm only one person, you know) and the front loader models at Costco were literally THREE time more expensive than the top loaders!

The Vixter's ELA teacher (remember when it was English class, not" English Language Arts"? class) gave out her first written assignment of the year... she is having the kids write out an urban lengend in their own words, in three paragraphs using descriptiive language etc... it made me wonder how many urban legends we could call to mind...
Today, I just got a book from the library (I had placed a hold on it when it was ordered) and the title is "Urban Legends : 666 Absolutely True Stories That Happened To a Friend-- Of a Friend-- Of a Friend (http://www.amazon.com/Urban-Legends-Absolutely-Friend-Friendof/dp/1579124666/ref=sr_11_1/104-9264336-3384736?ie=UTF8)" by Thomas J. Craughwells! Spooky!

I just wanted to pop in and say hi to everyone, hope you all had good days. Mine has been good, made up my mind, I'm moving to Phoenix to live with my fag hag. I found the means to make the money for it and I'm blowing this joint! So, I'm feeling pretty positive and happy about making such changes in my life. Just wanted to share, good vibes to all!
-
Congrats on the decision to move, JF! I'm only moving a couple of miles from where I am now...your move is much more dramatic! I wish you all the best! ;D
-
My move is going to stink I'm afraid, and be expensive. I also got 2 cars to get there somehow, I have the volkswagen and a 91 ford mustang. I'm kinda considering leaving the bug and most of my stuff here in storage until my friend and I get into a bigger apt. and I'm definately sure I want to live there.
On another note, I'm sad I miss all these shows you guys are watching. I sure miss my DVR!!! Because I work through primetelevision I don't get to watch much of anything. Only what's on NBC, and most night's that's Law and Order. And the new season of Nip/Tuck started...ah well, guess I'll wait for the dvd. Night everybody
-
Good night!
-
Well, I must be going, too (no bitch-slapping for me ;)). I have to get up early again because more work is being done on my house (where I currently live) and I need to take a shower and feed my cat before the guy gets here. My cat is very skittish and any visitors scare her. She'll hide under my bed until everyone's gone...unless I'm there, which I won't be. And because the guy will be working in the bathroom AND the kitchen, I have to move the cat box AND the cat food. :P
-
And just so you know (for future reference...if necessary), she really is affectionate and if there are visitors when I'm home, she may start to run away when someone arrives, but I can easily get her back to socialize. :)
-
So, good night, all! 8)

~~~Easy (and hopefully less expensive than you think) Moving Vibes for JHVW!!~~~
;D

Very cute pups, Jane!

Re: Tonight's "Project Runway" episode:
SPOILER
And then there were 5. And the 5 suddenly, surprisingly and malevolently swelled to 7 as Angela and Vincent were brought back and given a second chance.
The two people in the entire competition who, arguably, had no business even being IN the competition.
It was bad enough having to revisit Vincent's self-serving comments in highlights from last week's show, but to be treated to more Vincent was sheer cruelty.
And to bring back Angela...Angela the Damned, Angela the Clueless, Angela the Number One Most Wanted Felon on the Fashion Police's Top Ten...what could they have been thinking?
The challenge was simple enough. The pressure was on. The drama was kept to a minimum.
And the finale, after much angst and teeth gnashing on my part in fear that either Angela or Vincent might "win" again, was a great relief.
I was very happy for Laura. After all her self-doubts and the pressure that nearly had her quit the show, she came through and won the challenge. It was a nice dress. She's back!
Michael was back, too. And after last week, it was good to see him shine.
I thought Jeffrey and Uli were both strong, but the judges seemed really tough on both. I did see someone's point (I think it was Michael Kors') about Uli showing the same dress in a different fabric and with modifications, week after week. I don't think Kors has seen Gwen Stefani from Jeffrey week after week. Last week he certainly didn't. The recycling dress wasn't Stefani. And that number he did for Angela's mom certainly wasn't goth. I thought they were hypercritical.
As for Kayne....the front was fantastic and the back was a disaster....the front was Annette Bening and the back was Madonna in one of her tacky phases. Kayne is a very mixed bag...and I think he got as far as he should have.
As for Vincent and Angela....woof! Angela's own appearance was frightful and dismaying. She has NO personal style. No fashion self-sense. Her taste is atrocious. Vincent is cheese.
Both have cheesy smiles that flash much too often and with too much insincerity.
Both are hacks. Please, Heidi, don't bring them back...EVER again.
