Well, you've read the notes, the notes went bump in the night, and now it is time for you to post until the beatific cows come home.
-
And the word of the day is: INFUCATION!
-
Just George and me. And George hasn't even mentioned receiving a certain book, let alone reading it.

Just George and me. And George hasn't even mentioned receiving a certain book, let alone reading it.
I most humbly apologize for this oversight! With all the excitement of getting my new place ready for me to move into it and then actually moving, I totally forgot to mention that I had received your book! Which I have!! ;D
-
Whew!
-
And with rehearsals for Cannibal: The Musical, I don't have a lot of time to read much of anything, other than my script. I can't wait until things settle down for me to make some time for it. :)

Where are your PRIORITIES, man? ;D

Seattle Times (http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/nationworld/2003280694_detainees29.html)
By writing into law for the first time the definition of an "unlawful enemy combatant," the bill empowers the executive branch to detain indefinitely anyone it determines to have "purposefully and materially" supported anti-U.S. hostilities. Only foreign nationals among those detainees can be tried by the military commissions. U.S. citizens designated enemy combatants have not been stripped of their habeas-corpus rights and so have access to civilian courts.
Traditionally, unlawful enemy combatants encountered on a field of battle would be subject to summary execution (they become simple combat casualties). With the advent of the current tactics of asymmetrical warfare involving un-uniformed irregular combatants, and no clearly defined battlefields, the issue of "due process" becomes more complex.
I would refrain from hysterical reaction until these issues work themselves out.

Back spasms, and I am awake....
Thought I would drop in...
-
I awoke with the word skanky on my mind.
-
And the word of the day is: INFUCATION!
Casey would waltz
With the strawberry blonde,
But her facial INFUCATION threw him off the beat -
For some reason, she had made herself up to look exactly like his mirror image, right down to the mole just off center on his forehead. Creepy.
-
I wouldn't know how to ACT IF UNION leaders demanded that all members undergo an INFUCATION, tattooing their affiliation on their right cheeks.
-
Wednesday early-morning greetings! Today I'm helping with a
Special Event (http://foundationcenter.org/cleveland/50annivdayton.html)
after which I'll get off work a little early.
Sorry to have missed the ascent of DR Edisaurus last night! Congratulations!
The two managers of the department where I work are leaving for NYC today to attend training for recepients of the grant which I helped them prepare. If I'd been invited to go along, I'd be there for the partay at Fred & Skip's on Friday. Oh, well, I'll be there in spirit!

When I read DR Woody's un-jumbles in the morning, I think of that scene in "Wordplay"(the great crossword puzzle documentary) where we're riding in the car with one of the puzzle constructors.
As they drive past Dunkin Donuts, the puzzle guy notes off-hand that if you move the D to the back of the first word, it would read
"Unkind Donuts". I think Woody should come up with his own form of puzzle (basically what he's doing now) and syndicate it!
Off for coffee and unkind (to your waistline) donuts!

No hysterics from me. I just stated my thoughts.

Good morning, all! Good morning, Edi, or is it goddi?
BK, I don't need the CD then.
I've got some polishing on the BABES CD notes this morning, and then some brain surgery, all between rounds of laundry and whatever fresh hell turns up.
-
Wednesday, and I MAY go shopping for a new desk chair. I can't decide. Looks a bit cloudy today, and we may get some of DR CILLA LIZ's snow on Friday. YIKES!
-
I think Mr Henry Mancini probably did some music cues for THE MOLE PEOPLE, so listen closely and maybe you can hear some of the talent coming up out of the ground.
I enjoyed reading in his books about the pastische scores the Joseph Gershenson would put together for the Universal Sci Fi films of the 50's.

Feel better vibes for ANTHONY....it's that time of the year.

My first question for ASK BK day....what scene in a famous movie do you consider unnecessary and you would edit it out? Or even trim a shot or two?
-
Feel better vibes to Anthony.
-
JRand's question - I would trim some of the lovely Betsy Palmer's ludicrous big scene in FRIDAY THE 13TH. Too much of it made that scene cross over from being scary to being silly, I thought, and made a slight mockery of the fine actress.
-
I'd also trim the "Don't f*** with me fellas" line from MOMMIE DEAREST. Would have preferred a less silly moment for what should have been a powerful section story-wise.
-
Health vibes for Ant.
-
I'm home this morning because I have to attend a meeting with child protective services for one of my clients later today. The meeting is all the way downtown, so it didn't make sense to go up to the Bronx only to leave an hour later for a 1-2 hour commute downtown.
-
But then, when i was 17 and saw NETWORK at an advance screening, before the reviews and the Oscar buzz, I remember thinking I would have liked to have cut Beatrice Straight's scenes entirely - I thought they lent moral conscience to a film where such a thing was simply unearned. Of course, i know better now, but at 17, i thought the brief moments slowed down the film, as brilliant as she was.
(And of course, the film has proven to be more prescient than we ever would have imagined - TV has exceeded the nightmare examples that even Chayefsky dared to imagine.)
-
I awoke with the word skanky on my mind.
I'm not even going to ask "Why"?
-
And one for Mommie (Dearest)
-
Haven't been posting much because I'm so busy at work and Anthony isn't feeling well. I'm about to leave for a while to get him to the doctor.
I hope he gets good treatment, and/or at least good drugs. Let the healing commence!
-
One last invite in case it was missed yesterday -
We're having a mini HHW dinner at our place this Friday Oct 20 at 7 pm in honor of Bruce being back in town after a three-week absence. Please let me know if you'd like to come. RSVP by Thurs afternoon so that we can plan food accordingly.

Good morning Esteemed, scared, soothed, and beatified BK --
Sometimes, when things go bump in the night, a person simply must get up and eat some tapioca. Calming and friendly it is.
-
I've got some polishing on the BABES...this morning
and then some brain surgery
Quit bragging, Lar!
Good morning to you, too. I awoke feeling positively....Godlike.
-
Dear Ben --- you tell that dear sweet Ant that I sent him a big long-distance hug, and I'm mentally sending him cosmic chicken-soup.
A big hug to you too !!
-

Good morning, fellow Aquarian Music Guy! There's something about tapioca that is very soothing and friendly. And not unkind, like donuts.
-
Hi DR Edi (and fellow Aquarian!).......Congrats on your goddess-ness ! :) Do you jump about, or feel like saying wise things, or issuing an edict to "your people?"
I am just here in lowly mortal land, so I shall assume a serf-like attitude.
(grovel.....grovel)
-
She feels it will probably run its course in 7 to 14 days. Meanwhile he can take small amounts of aspirin for the fever and if/when he feels like eating lots of bland things like bananas, toast, rice, applesauce
Wow--7 to 14 days! Better stock up on items for the BRAT diet.
And of course, I think you could safely add tapioca to the repertoire...
Feel better, Anthony!
-
Do you jump about, or feel like saying wise things, or issuing an edict to "your people?"
I would like to heal the world and my people---starting with Anthony.

Ask BK day............
Assume it is around 1958, and you have come up to the area of Sunset Blvd. to Hollywood Blvd., and from Gower west to La Brea. In that area, at which 3 places would you eat (it can be more than one meal) and at what 3 stores would you go in to look around and maybe buy something?
-
Just remember we are a pleasant bunch here and have certain ways to solve disagreements.
I am afraid...
I'll just sit here quietly in the corner, revelling in my Godliness (cleanliness to be achieved later).

What was the most postingest day ever, and why?
-
Hi DR Larry.....I just noticed that you popped into the Living Room, and I just wanted to say hello and throw a bouguet of admiration at you.
I have to be off and get some work things done.
By the way, I'm dying to hear how the music and the arranging turns out for The Brain ! I wish I were a better Theremin player.....I'd volunteer!
-
I wish I were a better Theremin player.....
I think this is the first time I've ever heard this phrase spoken...
-
Good morning!
Still overcast, but it's warm for OCtober, and it's going to be in the high 70s today and the low 80s tomorrow!
I'm so afraid these extreme temperature changes are going to make me sick. My body does not adjust well to these extremes so quickly.
-
So sorry to read about Ant's illness, DR Ben. Give him my best. That kind of illness is one of the worst to endure. Sounds like what I had my senior year in college that kept me out of classes for 10 days.
-
COngratulations to new goddess Edisaurus! I thought I remembered 501 being the magic number. Happy to share air space with you! :)
-
Hiya, gang!!
Belated WELCOME to your own home, George!! The fun begins... with the lost mailbox key... and more to come...
Edisaurus, welcome to Olympus!
And dear Elmo! Hiya! Yet another NY soiree I won't be attending this Friday - how long has it been since I had a bite of the Apple? or a matzo ball at Artie's? Looking forward to BRAIN!!!
Ben, my best to poor Anthony. Health is the only true wealth. Well, and free time. And, of course, gold...
So I have a bit of a breather this morning and have b een reading the week's posts. So much to catch up on.

Love the new avatar, Edi!

And the pic of your bro!

A bad sign for viewers of FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS.
NBC had scheduled this Sunday for a LIGHTS marathon (NFL taking a week off) to allow fans to relive the excitement and new viewers to discover it. Ratings for the second week fell 30% from the premiere, so now NBC has scheduled a HEROES marathon instead.
I'll look with interest later today at the overnight ratings to see if LIGHTS gained any ground in its third airing. The show has great critical backing, but if the viewers aren't there, NBC won't stand by it for long.
-
Today I must catch up on BOSTON LEGAL (especially since the DVR couldn't pick up last week's episode due to transmission problems) along with last night's SVU, VERONICA MARS, and Monday's OLD CHRISTINE. A lot to watch.
-
(And of course, the film has proven to be more prescient than we ever would have imagined - TV has exceeded the nightmare examples that even Chayefsky dared to imagine.)
I was thinking this exact same thing the last couple of times I saw NETWORK. Very scary. ;D

Well I would go over to 1757 North Orange Grove Avenue and sit on the front porch and wait for Allison to come home and give me an autograph. 8)

My question for ask BK day:
When I travel down to Los Angeles for to see BRAIN FROM PLANET X, I plan on getting out and about quite a bit. Where are some really good places to buy CDs? The kind of places that have a large eclectic selection where I could find perhaps Bollywood soundtracks, Arabain pop music, 1960s J-pop, or even Tab Hunter's greates hits?

I think the show is extremely well-acted...and the writers know when to pull out the emotional punches.
But frankly....Texas football and the community testosterone brigades that hover over it and try to govern it is the lowest form of entertainment -- the show is accurate in its depictions, but it's supposedly much worse in real life. And that, of course, just plain sucks.

Piece o' cake: I would eat at Coffee Dan's, Musso and Frank (pounded steak $.75), and C.C. Brown's. I would stop in and browse Wallich's Music City, Pickwick Books, and Bert Wheeler's House of Magic. Voila! If I could add moviegoing to my day, I'd go to the Egyptian, the Paramount, the Chinese, and the Warner Cinerama.
-
For ask BK day:
What was the most postingest day ever, and why?
Easy - this year's Academy Awards - over 1200 posts - we always do well on AA nights, but this year we went NUTS! You should go back and check it out. Also, on the home page of this discussion board, toward the bottom you'll see something that says "more stats" (it's small) - click on that, and you can see all our stats since the board came into being.

There's really only one store left, sadly - Amoeba, on Sunset one block west of Vine.
-
My first question for ASK BK day....what scene in a famous movie do you consider unnecessary and you would edit it out? Or even trim a shot or two?
I've mentioned both these before: The Dead Zone - the scene with Mr. Sheen and his henchman and the newspaper guy - remove it and the revelation of Mr. Sheen's true personality works better.
The Boy Who Could Fly: The dream sequence where the girl goes to visit the boy in the hospital and the flying dream. If we see him fly then, the power of when he actually does fly is lessened, and harmfully so.

Afraid -ah, well you should! Those who believe the pen is mightier than the sword have never fought a duel.
I'm sure DR MattH would share the proof- copy of his long awaited tome: "Cleanliness Tips for Heavenly Mansions - Celestial Housekeeping For Dummies".
Yours in Divinity,

Hmmm...People deleting posts wreak havoc with the announcements of page turns. :(
:)
-
Who deleted a post and why is this site suddenly running so slowly? I'm hesitant to write a note about it just yet because everything on the Internet seems a bit wonky this morning.
-
Well, that posted fast so maybe all is well or, conversely, maybe well is all.
-

I'm glad you mentioned that, DR FJL, because I was going to delete a few of my posts to free up more space---like the one with the big Bosch painting, and the duplicated ones of my brother. :-) (Sorry, guys!)
But it sounds like bk has someone who bats cleanup on this when the room gets overloaded, so maybe I will refrain from deleting.
-

I didn't delete any posts, but the first two times I tried to connect I got:" Too many connections". But there were only 3 other people listed as being on board!
-
They were probably doing their occasional little maintenence thing, which slows us down for a few minutes. It seems to be fine now.
Every few weeks we do a photo purge, so no worries.
-
It looks very pretty outside and in about ten minutes I will begin the jog.

Thanks, DRs Matt and PennyO for letting me hitch a ride on your cloud!

I'll say - I was bumped off while reading a post and got the feared "too many connections" message.

-
I have written Ye Olde Note to our hosting facility - we were just down again, and that's one too many times this morning - at least they're now alerted to whatever is going on. But, again, many boards are behaving strangely this morning.
My morning meeting just got pushed back by almost an hour - not good - too much to do and to little time to do it in. I'll have to keep the meeting to under an hour, because I then have to do banking, pick up some toiletries, go to my mail place, deal with recording details and then have three afternoon meetings. I'm going to try to pack some stuff now and then before the afternoon meetings, so that when I finally get home I won't have much to do but write the notes and go to bed by ten (am getting up at four-fifteen).
-
I wonder if FJL would be available to perform wake-up call duties at seven-fifteen his time?
-
Amoeba looks to be just a hop, skip, and a short drive from my hotel accommodations in Hollywood...so perhaps I will make that one of my first visiting destinations upon my arrival that Thursday afternoon. That and Little Tokyo perhaps.

My boarding pass is printed, and I've done the majority of the packing (well, all the packing except whatever toiletries I buy - just the travel-sized toothpaste and stuff) - so, that's one less thing to do this evening. I do love short trips like this - in addition to what I'm wearing I just pack an additional pair of pants, a couple of shirts, a few pantaloons and socks, and voila!
-
So....tonight is THE night:
The true FINALE of PROJECT RUNWAY!
All will be revealed.

I watched the final 10 minutes or so of that Dancing With the Stars show on ABC last night.
The interview with Sara about why she quit the show and how she's protecting her family and how she just needs to be there to watch her son's face when he's in pain and etc., etc. etc.
GAG ME WITH A SPOON.
It sure didn't stop her from PLUGGING her upcoming tour!
What a load of crap!
From what I've read, she was borderline about to be bounced from the show for lack of votes.
I also thought it tacky and inappropriate for Tom Bergeron (well...for ANYone, but Bergeron is becoming notoriously TACKY) to make comments about her husband and about "unspecified" things found on his computer, etc., etc.
TRASH TV can be fun....but this show hit an ALL-Time LOW in trashiness last night!
-
BK - I'm going out this evening, and I don't have to go to the office tomorrow, so not 100% sure if I'll be up that early tomorrow.
But I can call you as soon as I wake up as a just-in-case backup. How early do you need to be at the airport?
-

Well, gang, it works. I recommend this $95 system. They emailed me one short tutorial on setting up my system, but it wasn't difficult. It works with Windows 2000 and XP and Apple, but read the instructions to make sure it's compatible with your OS.

Hiya, gang!!
Belated WELCOME to your own home, George!! The fun begins... with the lost mailbox key... and more to come...
Thanks! I meet with a mailbox person sometime today to get a new lock and three (I think) keys. Hopefully, the person will also tell me which mailbox is mine! They're not marked with the same number as the condo units...which I guess is good (safety reasons, and all), but it's darned inconvenient. I just got a call this morning from the title company that handled the condo sale and they needed to send me something. Well, they sent it to my new address, but because I don't have a mailbox, it was returned. I had to have them send it to my work.
-
I shall now be on my way to my morning meeting, after which, I shall return.

If I understand it correctly, deleting a post with a picture won't remove it from HHW's server, so you might as well leave it...unless the picture is just too big (for some reason, people don't like HHW to be in widescreen ;)). Like BK said, pictures are purged from the server every once in a while.

I shut the closet door, turned around and who was trying to get into the closet again...you uessed it...Boo.

This release for next week also looks interesting...a set of German westerns from the 1960s....there is something appealing about this set...must be the historical accuracy that it promises (who knew Gold's gym was around in the old west!).

Thanks, DRs Matt and PennyO for letting me hitch a ride on your cloud!
BTW Matt, if you run out of places to clean at your house...ahem...
And we have an HD TV, too! Come on down!
Thanks for the invitation. I'm afraid I have enough on my hands to keep this place HALFWAY presentable.
Really, I have an old house that breathes dust, and the spiders will take over if I blink my eyes one second longer than I should.
When I was teaching, writing film reviews, and doing the occasional stage play, I never had time to clean my house, and consequently, things were in a terrible mess when I finally retired and had time to do these things for myself. Even now, I really could do a more thorough job than I do, but at least I don't worry about neighbors and friends dropping by like I used to.
-
I'll check out that German western set - hard to know if the transfers will be anamorphic or not or even in their proper ratio, although if it's the same company that put out the German sci-fi films, those were a spotty affair - non-anamorphic transfers with iffy color. I've heard the German westerns are interesting and have wanted to see them - they were the precursor to spaghetti westerns.
-
For all who may be interested!
(http://ec3.images-amazon.com/images/P/B000HEZEYG.01._SS500_SCLZZZZZZZ_V58799961_.jpg)
Releases next Tuesday!! Woohoo!
I'm very happy about this release (though I would rather have had season sets rather than dividing the show's two seasons into three releases). At any rate, I was always a huge ADDAMS FAMILY fan (and not a fan of THE MUNSTERS at all), so I already have my order in for this.
-
Had a nice morning meeting, ate eggs and bacon, and then did my banking, shopping, and mail-getting, and I think I'm completely caught up with everything, so I can now relax for a couple of hours, which is just what the doctor ordered - and continue catching up on my CD listening.
-
Lunch ran very long this afternoon, but I did manage to squeeze in three shows.
I began with last night's BOSTON PUBLIC. I'm playing catch up since I didn't get to see last week's show at all. Am enjoying the "Scott Little" trial a lot. I think the mother did it.
-
Next came VERONICA MARS with a sensational episode with Veronica solving a theft, watching out for her friend Weevil, and trying not to lose her boy friend all at the same time.
The story of the campus rapist is certainly not occupying much screen time each week. I think the producers are trying to see if having mostly closed-ended episodes will help the show's popularity.
-
And I finished my afternoon viewing with Monday night's OLD CHRISTINE. Wanda Sykes was the guest, and there was some funny stuff between the show's two ladies. I also liked that none of it took place at school this week, since those bitchy soccer moms can get old with a steady diet of their hurtful remarks.
-
Overnight ratings news:
DANCING WITH THE STARS drew more than a million more viewers last night, presumably eager to find out what Sara Evans was really going to do about the competition. No other show was even close to it in the ratings last night.
A brief ray of hope for FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS: it gained about 300,000 viewers last night from the previous week, so that should keep the ax at bay for at least another week.
BOSTON LEGAL had its best ratings since March last night. Still #2 in the time slot, but ABC has to be pleased now with its Tuesday line-up. Now, what they'll do when DANCING WITH THE STARS is over is anyone's guess.
-
Off to clean the den now and then back to last night's SVU and more DVD episodes of THE OFFICE.

I have 3 old houses---the one we're in is 83 years old (I've been here for 25 of them) and our dream house that we'll never live in is over 100. The house we will move to in Atlanta is a shack that's over 100 years old. Spiders have taken over a long time ago. With tongue and groove ceilings, there's a constant trickling of dust.
And then there's 4 cats, lots of CD's, DVD's, VHS tapes and piles of paperwork of every sort.
My friends know better than to drop by, without at least taking a Claratin®!
I LOVE old houses ---I could never see myself living in a new one...

Off to show my work to the Mercer producer...she just flew in from Spain and is taking my DVD up to NY tomorrow for a meeting with the Mercer foundation. Maybe BK will see her in the airport!
Since we interviewed Alan Bergman, I'm going to play her "You Must Believe In Spring" by Guy Haines. *Swoon* and *weep*!
-
This release for next week also looks interesting...a set of German westerns from the 1960s....there is something appealing about this set...must be the historical accuracy that it promises (who knew Gold's gym was around in the old west!).

Dear MB -- I really had a good laugh, when I finally read the small print at the bottom under the picture of the studly Indian ! So many meanings!
By the way,....what do you want for your birthday?

The Foundation Center 50th Anniversary event went swimmingly - we had about 60 people in attendance, an informative panel, and good questions and comments from the audience. My workday ended at 3:30 and, even better, I don't go in at all tomorrow. I've taken a vacation day to accompany DH Richard to a retired teachers' luncheon, where the featured speaker is someone from
Graeters (http://www.graeters.com)
In preparation for that, I'm wearing my sweatshirt that says, "There's nothing wrong with me that a little ice cream won't fix," right next to a picture of an ice cream cone.

Company just arrived. I managed to get almost everything needed done, except wash my car & iron Keith’s shirts.
Bye.
-
I shall shortly be on my way to the afternoon o' meetings at LACC, after which I shall return.
-
Only 6 hours and 8 minutes till Project Runway 3's Finale airs.
PDT, of course.

Because I've been experiencing "battery life" issues with my iPod, I'm about to perform the 5-step procedure recommended by the Apple website. Wish me luck.

I've been experiencing "battery issues" for a while now too- can you point me in the direction of their 5 step procedure?

FJL, thanks for the invite to your shindig on Friday. I'm sorry that I won't be able to attend.

DR TPunk - here's Apple's Five Rs Assistant (http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs). I think I fast-forwarded and repeated too much, rather than just letting the music play. Just did all five steps, so we'll see if it helps.
-
DR Ben - I hope Anthony is feeling better.
-
DR TPunk - the end of my work day was sort of like the beginning of yours today. Being where we had the Foundation Center 50th Anniversary event put me more than half-way home and my boss agreed that it was silly for me to drive back to work for just a little while before leaving for the day.

Congrats on your successful event, DRGINNY!!!
DR TPUNK - loved the pics of your new workspace!!!

Last week DRELMORE mentioned the documentary DVD titled BALLET RUSSES. My copy arrived today, and I cannot recommend it highly enough.
As a history of dance and culture, it is without question one of the finest documentaries I have EVER seen.
And the final interview snippet brought a tear to the eye for a day, a discipline, and a dance-ethic that has, unfortunately, disappeared forever.

Here is my dilema- my supervisor signed off on petty cash for me to order a few play therapy items for my office. One of them was a wrestling ring (a small scale one of course), but a co-worker told me that there were extras and that I could have one. But I already have the cash in hand- so the question is, do I give back the cash or get something else instead. Fisherprice makes a lovely dollhouse which is $8 more than the wrestling ring I was going to buy. But then the accounting will be all screwy and while I don't mind paying the extra out of pocket, I don't want to make an enemy of our office manager. Maybe I will just make a toys r us run this weekend and see what I can find that costs 24.95...
-
And the stories!!!
The curtain comes down in the middle of a ballet - the performance ends. Why? So the musicians will not have to go into overtime.
-
DR TPUNK - nothing matters EXCEPT that the paperwork is right.....turn the money in, and make another request. You will never regret it.
JRE - former State employee.

I tried resetting my iPod. Hopefully that will eliminate the battery issues I've been having.
-
Ginny, glad to hear the 50th Anniversary event went well. We are about to commence with many 50th Anniversary events, culminating in a shindig at the Smithsonian Museum of the American Indian in the old Customs House down on Bowling Green at the end of Manhattan. We are having an "event" then our Board of Directors will have a private dinner. Staff is invited to the event but not the dinner.
Anthony isn't so much feeling better as feeling somehow relieved after seeing the doctor. He's still sick but at least he has a better idea of what's wrong.
We (actually I) had an old fashioned thermometer, the kind with mercury in the tip that you stick under your tongue. You then have to move it around to read where the mercury stopped. As I mentioned Anthony had a temperature of 102 yesterday and 101 today. I can read the thermometer because I'm used to it but earlier this evening he went into the bathroom and about 5 minutes later came out saying "how do you work this thing?" I guess when you're sick it's not fun trying to read a thin sliver of mercury. That was my cue to walk over to CVS and get one of them "new fangled" digital thermometers. It's battery operated and it gives you a reading in less than two minutes. All for just $5.99. I took his temperature and it's still too high, around 101 but at least if he wants to take his temperature tomorrow while I'm at work he can do it without going crazy. A nice bit of humor in a somewhat tedious day. I say that because tomorrow one of my sisters in Minnesota will be having surgery on her neck to relieve pressure on some discs. She will then be out of work for 4-6 weeks. Luckily, she has a very understanding boss and even though he's not required to, he will pay her salary for the 4-6 weeks while she's out.
The neurosurgeon said he's done the operation, literally, a thousand times and they have all turned out fine. Still, you can't help but worry just a little.
Anyway, enough of this. I'm going to bed and then to work in the morning.
Nite all!

You're right. Besides, I'm already getting everything I asked for so I shouldn't get greedy.

Good surgery vibes for DR BEN's sister. :D

Actually the only way I would watch DANCING WITH THE STARS again would be if Joey and Mario partnered up in a paso doble.

Along those same lines, DR JRand, here's a book I plucked off our new book shelf last week. The subtitle is "...Stories from the Worlds of Ballet, Broadway, the Ballroom, and Modern Dance:

There was an interesting article in today's DAILY NEWS about the Project Runway finale. Laura comes off a such a sour grape. And she wonders why everyone hates her!

Good Evening!
I'm back... almost...
Whew!
Well, at least I got all my clothes unpacked and washed from my cruise last week...
Otherwise, rehearsals for She Loves Me started yesterday, and I have to say - again - that I truly do love this show. Such a charmer. And "Dear Friend" still manages to produce a tear or two from my eyes. After the darkness of Cabaret, She Loves Me is the perfect antidote to all that sturm und drang.

DR JRand - I did indeed meet the Head Quack, Jeanne Bice. She was and it a total hoot! Once I collate all the pictures that everyone has been sending to me, I'll be sure to post a couple of them here.
-
DR MBarnum - If you want a 'reason' to head to DC before the end of the year, you may want to check out the website for the actor who's playing Kodaly in our production:

;D

DR Ben - My best to Ant. Speedy Recovery Vibes to Him!
-
I am jealous again of DRJOSE - he is working on a production of SHE LOVES ME - AND he met Jeanne Bice!
I eagerly await photos.

And speaking of pics... and the cruise... and "strange coincidences"... ;-)
During the first formal night on the cruise, while heading to dinner...
This happened:

-
Who knew DR Jason was a Quack or Quacker or whatever you call it...
-
SPEEDY RECOVERY AND GOOD HEALTH VIBES TO ANTHONY~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
And for those DRs who may not be familiar with the other fine fellow in the above pics, that is DR Jason. Well, more like "Former-DR-But-Who-Will-Soon-Be-Returning-To-HHW Jason".
Due to some last minute Quacker cancellations, there were a few staterooms available that were already paid for, so... When the group leader asked if if we knew anyone who might like to go on the cruise too... Well... And since I know that Jason had just gone through an insanely(!) busy period at his new-ish job...
*And he even got to sing the theme from "The Love Boat" on The Love Boat - with Yours Truly accompanying him at the keyboard. Poolside no less!
-
Here comes the fashion show!!!
-
TPunk - I agree with JRand. I've worked for 4 different government entities...the person you ABSOLUTELY NEED to have as your friend is the person who does the paperwork, doles out funds or whatever you want to call it. Generally they pull their hair out trying to get everyone to get the paperwork right. You will make many brownie points giving the money back even of you put in a request for something else. It shows that you are conscious of the budget constraints by taking the spare toy instead of buying a new one etc....
-
Actually, DR Jason and I and the "others" are apparently known as "Dutiful Drakes".
-
Here comes the fashion show!!!
I'm all a-twitter!
-
DRJOSE you are most honorable thoughtful friend!
I am sure DRJASON was great company. What is his "newish" job?
-

DR FJL (and bk) - Since I just started rehearsals, I don't believe it would be good form for me to take Friday off to head up to NYC for dinner. Not that I wouldn't mind doing that, but... ;)
-Shall I have some chocolates messengered over in my place? ;)

I love Laura.....but my money is on Uli!
I loathe and detest Laura, evil personified. I love it how she protesteth too much about how she really isn't out to get Jeffrey, and then calls him a "heroin addict" in the Daily News article. Someone should drop a house on her.
-
DRJOSE you are most honorable thoughtful friend!
I am sure DRJASON was great company. What is his "newish" job?
He works as a photo editor for a photo agency. He's been editing all sorts of photos over the past couple of month: award ceremonies, red carpet events, World Cup finals, U.N. speeches, paparazzi photos, etc., etc., etc. And also fashion shows - the "insanely busy" period he just went through was New York Fashion Week. Literally THOUSANDS of photos to sort and edit each day.
-
I was lucky to see DR Jason when I was in New York...he looked great!
-
Dancing with the stars spoiler.....
They did just what I thought they would do. No one is going home..... but they didn't announce it until after everyone had called in and spent their money on calls. The votes will carry over to next week, so it isn't a waste, but I figured that's what they would do

Interesting! Hope he sets aside all Carroll Baker photos for needy bald people in Indiana.
Two collections have shown...gonna be a tough choice.
LOL DRELMORE..... :P

How nice to see DR Jason!

NOTHING OFFICIAL....but MY Pwoject Wunway collection order:
1. Uli
2. Jeffrey & Laura (tie)
4. Michael
-
Where else on all the internet can you find out such information? ;D
Well... I think an addendum/clarification may be in order...
I was hired to play piano for a few of the Quacker Cruise events on the ship. I was hired by the agency who arranged the group, not by the Quacker Factory directly. Besides playing for a few of the shipboard events, I along with some other hired hands helped out some of the "nuts and bolts" of the cruise (ushering, checking in the Quackers, handing out promo items, etc.) And we all basically got a free cruise vacation in exchange for working a few hours during the seven day cruise.
We had two "Welcome Aboard" cocktail parties - we had to have two of them since there were over 800 Quackers on board, and the club only held about 400 people. At the conclusion of each cocktail party, our group leader had devised a medley of songs that had been appropriately "Quacker-ized". Well... I was the pianist, and a couple of the other workers - who all happened to be actors at one time or another - performed the songs. Well, we were such a hit at those opening cocktail parties, that we were brought back for the Poolside Sing-A-Long as well as the "Farewell Cocktail Parties". *The Quackers - including the Head Quack herself, Jeanne Bice - are even demanding that we put out a CD.
Well... May I present...

Just heard from DR jhvw - he's very busy with getting the election graphics designed and approved at the station, looking for apartments and jobs in Kansas City and just life in general. He'll be back soon. He says Hi to everyone

Quacktones - I can hear you on QVC now!!
Thanks for the jhvw report, DRCILLALIZ!

Page Seven Disco Dance. Maybe. 8)

DR Cillaliz - tonight I watched Serendipity, which Richard ordered for me from Netflix. Fond memories of our Thursday in the Park (and Upper East Side) with Jose!
-
And the winner of "Project Runway" is...
:D
-
Great finale.....
The winner deserved it....
-
Bring on Season Four!!!
-
Now I think I will play with my new hardware.

DR Cillaliz - tonight I watched Serendipity, which Richard ordered for me from Netflix. Fond memories of our Thursday in the Park (and Upper East Side) with Jose!
I'll have to order that and watch it again. It's been awhile since I've seen it, but it was the reason I first wanted to go to Serendipity III
-
DR Cillaliz - please give our best to DR jhvw!
-
...That was my cue to walk over to CVS and get one of them "new fangled" digital thermometers. It's battery operated and it gives you a reading in less than two minutes. All for just $5.99....
We got one of those when Fletcher wasn't feeling very well. D'j'ever try taking a Dalmatian's temperature?
Too much information? ::)
My best to Ant.
-
Great finale.....

Yep!
-
Well, restoring my iPod seems to have helped. At least it's lasting longer this evening than I am.
'night!
-
DR Cillaliz - please give our best to DR jhvw!
Will do!
-
OH! That was post 5300. Cool squash (still tired of beans)
-
Here comes the fashion show!!!
I only watched the fashion show on Lost. Desmond, if they'd only pulled the camera back futher...!!!
-
Finally a night when I'm not too tired to read the next story in a book that seems to be extremely popular on this here site. Night all
-
I decided to volunteer on election day again. I really love the excitement of the day. I have to take the day off to do it, but that makes it even more fun. There are some very tight local races that will be very interesting.
-
Now I think I will play with my new hardware.
I will not go there.
I will not go there.
I will not go there.
I will not go there.
I will not go there.
Dang, I went there.
:-\
-
Might I just ask where in tarnation is Rodzinski? Has he given up on this here site?
-
Back from my many meetings and photo shoot. Best news: They hired the gal I wanted as my sound designer - that means everything will be completely professional and I don't have to worry about anything. She's aces - does the Taper shows (including Jason Robert Brown's new musical, which opens just after we do), and is becoming the go-to person for sound design in LA. We're lucky to have her. Photo shoot went well.
-
I never did get to watch last night's SVU. I'll watch it tomorrow along with tonight's episodes of THE NINE and CSI: NY.
-
I did manage to watch two episodes of THE OFFICE, both hysterical. The first was "The Fire" episode and the other was the "Halloween" episode which combined dressing in outrageous costumes with the plot that Michael had to fire someone by day's end.
-
LOST had a tension-filled, thrilling episode with Locke and CHarlie searching for Mr. Eko. The Locke backstory was fascinating and, of course, unfinished. We still don't know how he got injured nor do we know what happened with Eddie.
What a fabulous series! And tonight's HD cinematography was mind-boggling. All of the outdoor shots on the island were awesome, but Locke in the cave was breathtaking!
-
I also say hi and I'll be back on this site soon.
(Not that I'm actually leaving, I'll be back here in the morning, but so many people are saying hi and that they'll be back on the site soon that i didn't want to be left out of the new trend. :) )
-
I know zip about clothes and fashion, so the PROJECT RUNWAY finale was an eye-opening experience for me.
I thought Laura's crafting was exquisite, but I understood the judges' criticisms of her collection (though I thought all her gowns were extraordinary and knowing they were made for $8,000 or less just floored me).
I hated everything about Michael's collection. Didn't really like a single piece.
Of the two left, I would have chosen Uli's dresses, but knowing the fashionistas like bizarre and different (or what looks bizarre to my eyes), I wasn't surprised that Jeffrey won. And his 12 pieces did run the gamut as well as had a unique look all his own. FUnny, but that one gown they all loathed was the one dress I would have said was the best!
See what I mean about knowing nothing about fashion!
-
I'm glad PROJECT RUNWAY is over, however. With MEDIUM slated to return in a month, that will make three network shows all on Wednesday at 10 that I'm interested in seeing in HD, so I'll be skipping TOP CHEF.
Is anyone here a fan of TOP CHEF? I saw in the newspaper this morning that one of the chefs is from CHarlotte this season.
-
Back from the Cabaret Convention at Rose Hall at Jazz at Lincoln center. BK's co-star in Last Starfighter, the hilarious Georga Osborne, was a true highlight, as well the ever-getting-better-and-better Jeff Harnar. And Ann Hampton Callaway was a wonder, comedy, singing, impersonating instruments, the lady has it all. And what a gorgeous hall this is. Even the ticket-takers were top-notch.
-
Thanks for posting the pics, DR Jose. Nice to see you and former DR Jason having a good time.
-
And with that, I think I'm going to head for the bedroom.
Good night, all!
-
My new favorite comedy bit, as done by Ann Hampton Callaway after mentioning a famous business associate: bends down, as if scooping something off the ground and saying "Oops, I dropped a name."
OK, maybe you hadda be there, but she was hilarious.
-
And one for Harnar (as well as Georga)

Have eaten a little chicken wrap thing, as I didn't think it a good idea to go without food until eight or whenever they feed us on the plane.
-
There are reports that the great actor Richard Easton collapsed during a peformance of THE COAST OF UTOPIA tonight. Can't find it on the news services yet, but hoping he's going to be OK.
-
Apparently a heart attack from what I read - but that was from an audience member so they may just be guessing.
I shall now post Ye Olde Notes and then toddle off to the bedroom environment.
