Mary Cleere Haran: This Funny World (Rodgers and Hart - the album no one knows I produced - with Richard Rodney Bennett - it's pretty sublime)

Latino Vets Angered by Ken Burns Film
Activists who believe Latinos deserve more recognition for their contributions during World War II have created an agonizing political problem for PBS and filmmaking star Ken Burns.
Several Latino leaders and military veterans, angry that Burns’ high-profile documentary series "The War” includes no conversations with Latinos who fought, are demanding changes. PBS and Burns want to satisfy an important constituency, without the precedent of a filmmaker forced to change his vision due to a protest.
...
Burns’ film focuses on the wartime experiences of people from four communities across the country — Waterbury, Conn.; Mobile, Ala.; Sacramento, Calif.; and Luverne, Minn. He weaves their individual stories about combat together to tell how the war changed lives, and changed the world.
Since he’s spent his career trying to tell overlooked stories in American history, Burns said he can appreciate the Latino community’s concerns.
"We did not set out to exclude Latinos, or any other group for that matter,” he told The Associated Press. "In fact, thousands of stories have not been included. We set out to explore the human experience of war and combat based on a handful of stories told by individuals in only four American towns.”
Still, it hasn’t escaped the Latino groups’ notice that blacks are talked to in the film about segregated forces, and Japanese-Americans about their internment.
...
Burns’ stature makes the issue so crucial. "A lot of people regard Ken Burns as the country’s documentarian,” Rivas-Rodriguez said.
She would like to see the project expanded to include the Latino experience, perhaps even by a couple of hours. A separate film has little appeal, because few beyond those directly involved would care, she said.
Waiting to get in-line:
Native Americans
Eskimos
Gays and Lesbians
Serbo-Croatian Fisherman
Quaker conscientous objectors
With a little luck, the Film could be longer than the war!

Very interesting TOD....hmmmm,,,,,
Alan J. Pakula directing Brandon deWilde and Dean Stockwell in BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN.
Edward Dymytryk directing Carroll Baker and Suzanne Pleshette in THELMA AND LOUISE.

DR DakotaCelt, you made me teary, writing about your father. Sorry I can't help you with the music request.
Sending many ***SUPPORTIVE VIBES*** to you and your whole family.
-
WOD: The board had mogigraphia yesterday; we did not reach the magic 400.
-
DR JoseSPiano - You're quite welcome; glad they were enjoyed.
As for the tart comment...well, I just can't...it's too easy! ;)
-
I bet DR CILLA LIZ has a mogigraphia expert that she can put on the stand if she needs him.
-
Is that a euphemism? ;)
We shall have to get an explanation from DR LAURA.

I had the weirdest dream last night...
At the last minute, I decided to book a flight to LA. I arrived at some sort of large hangar/warehouse, where they were having a HHW gathering. There were large displays of books and CDs everywhere, and many H/Ks were there. There was this important dance rehearsal going on...I can't remember if bk was leading the rehearsal, or just participating, but he was definitely dancing!
That is all...
-
Oh, DRs...
You all would have been so proud of DR JoseSPiano last night!!!
He was running hither and thither, being Official and otherwise Generally Indispensible. Mr. John Kander obviously puts great trust and confidence in him. And it was a great moment when he told Mr. John Kander goodbye, because it was his last day on staff, and Mr. John Kander said it certainly was NOT - he was needed and he was coming back. Especially sweet because our DR JoseSPiano was not even originally supposed to be around as long as this weekend!! So great things are definitely in store for him.
DR JoseSPiano, please confirm that it is OK to post general impressions of the dress rehearsal. I would not want any comments copied by a Guest and re-posted elsewhere on the web to get you into any trouble...

I have lots of work today so I will be in and out (although I've never been to In 'n Out Burger).
Later, gaters.

;D
No, we stayed in the back row on the side and made nary a peep. Well, actually, we laughed quite a lot. But no, no socializing with the mucky-mucks.
-
I fear DR George will be late to work today, or should I say later than usual. I guess there is a power outage down in Olympia-land, that is not expected to be fixed until 10:00 a.m.

No, DR singdaw, you're early. I fly back to NYC tomorrow afternoon, and I will be begging for travel vibes all morning. You cannot miss such a blatant and fearful cry for safe travel.

I hate it when that happens...
-
DR DakotaCelt, having just gone through the past year with what you're facing, I can offer two bits of advice that helped me out through the constant anguish the heart sends out: keep a sense of humor and let your father know that when his body wants to leave this plane, you wish him godspeed. Don't let anyone tie him down with please to stay or signs of misdirection without him. Once he's gone, mourn for him and yourself.
-
I enjoyed last night's comments about SOM scenes, but I can't say I've ever liked the film. Having seen the national tour of the original, I dislike the alterations in the musical program, and I find the movie much more sugary than the stage show. Friends admire it or love it, and I still cannot figure out why!
TOD: I'm great at casting a play or a musical, but I'm no good at this one. I do plan to enjoy the choices.
-
It took me three posts to do what originally I tried to send once twice. Oh, God, I still sound like Gertrude Stein.
Jo is off running errands and I am alone, the laundry is in the dryer, I want to finish TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD today, I have vehicular titles to sign for the attorney and my brothers, and tonight I dine with my friend Loyce, whom I've not seen in about a year. She and I will catch up, I will pack, and beg for good vibes.
-
Monday morning greetings! When my one-day weekend is a holiday for which I'm the hostess, it's real hard to come to work on Monday. But I'm here and have a lot to keep me busy.
DR Elmore - please say HI to Loyce for me! She both lives and works within blocks of me, but we have to import someone from NYC to communicate between us - isn't that pathetic?
-
DR LAURA said that the Dutchman's pipe wasn't very impressive.
The Dutchaman's pipe flower isn't very impressive. I planted it because it is the host plant for the pipevine swallowtail caterpillar.

-

Ah, dear, dear DR DearReaderLaura -
THIS is why we love you.
-
A true antidote to the jaded smuttiness of the rest of us all! :)
-
goodmorning everyone!
-
it is a bit too early to be up, but I decided I want to be early today.
-
A true anecdote about jaded smuttiness?
The Happy Hooker Goes to Washington, maybe?
-
And THAT, DR FJL, is why we all love YOU.
In a different way.
:)
-
The living room is getting full, for so early on a Monday morning.
All of us expunging our E & T guilt from yesterday, no doubt.
-
Good Morning!
...And I think I may need to make some coffee. I had coffee each morning while I was up at Westport - the coffee at the Inn was very good. And since I don't normally have coffee in the morning... I guess I'm feeling a bit of caffeine withdrawal this morning.
Or I could just be still tired.
-
Miss Litella, we said antidote, not anecdote.
Oh, an antidote to jaded smuttiness is very important. Never mind!
-
So, you and your hump
Me and my hump-
Battered about.
Everyone in it
Would like to get out.
My and my hump-
We just wanna be loved!
-
...And I just finished my bowl of oatmeal. Alas, no Belgian waffle here.
;)
-
Good morning!
We have partly cloudy skies here, but it should be a nice day. It's looks sunny and it's going to start to warm up a bit to be more like spring.
-
Battered hump - that should be the name of a dish of some sort
-
I only got 5 1/2 hours of sleep last night. I slept well for as long as it lasted, but by 6:30, I was wide awake and ready to get up. So I did. I hope this doesn't mean today is going to seem endless. So far the morning was flown by.
-

I think I'm getting queasy...

Stick with us, kid. We can make an hour seem like an eternity. ;)
-
How I spent my morning: I watched the 1995 French film La HAINE by Mathieu Kassovitz. It was a visceral experience to be sure. Sometimes we forget that other parts of the world have ghettos, and the poor and disinfranchised are just as angry and rootless as the jobless and airmless here in our country are. In power and scope, it reminded me a lot of Scorsese's MEAN STREETS.
-
This Criterion DVD of La HAINE is a two disc set, so there is an entire disc of special features I'll be working on watching today and tonight. Of course, I have so many hours of TV from last night that I won't get to it all today, but since I won't need to record anything tonight (I can watch everything I want to see "live"), I can finish the other SUnday night programs tomorrow.
-
Tonight, the CBS, NBC, and ABC lineups are all new. Fox is rerunning a house episode before an original '24' episode at 9 p.m.
-
I think a film like CRASH might have been more involving with Elia Kazan at the helm and some Actor's Studio folks like Brando, Shelley WInters, Eva Marie Saint, Woodward and Newman, and others in the cast.
-
As for the Topic of the Day...
Everytime I see a good film - like the ones in the "Harry Potter" and "Lord of the Rings" series - that use a lot of CGI and other computer effects, I always wonder just how those films could and would have been made without the aid of computers. And how the story-telling would have been affected.
Alas, at this time of day - I'm still "resisting" the coffee - I can't come up with a specific example.
-
I had the weirdest dream last night...

There were large displays of books and CDs everywhere, and many H/Ks were there. There was this important dance rehearsal going on...I can't remember if bk was leading the rehearsal, or just participating, but he was definitely dancing!
That is all...
Shall we say that you know when you're a REAL H/K when you dream about HHW gatherings?
-
Aha! First...I received my second batch of MR BK'S garage sale specials....woohooo....Working and Twiggy!!
AND also in my mailbox the soundtrack to THE CREATURE WASN'T NICE!!
-
Second ... after MUCH thought on the TOD, I offer:
After Mr Stanley Donen & Mr Bob Fosse worked on THE PAJAMA GAME, the immediately made CHICAGO starring Miss Marilyn Monroe as Roxie and Miss Doris Day as Velma. With Miss Betty Hutton as Mama Morton and Dean Martin as Billy Flynn.
And since it was Warner Bros, it was followed a couple of years later by a television series of the same name with:
Miss Connie Stevens as Roxie, Miss Dorothy Provine as Velma, Miss Marguerita Sierra as Mama Morton, and Edd Byrnes as Billy Flynn.
-
Well, I need to catch up on things here at the apartment, and then it's off to play for some potential Baby June's and Baby Louise's for a few hours... Then dinner with a friend... So...
Laters...

Lost another long post! Damn.
The Butler County Sheriff needs an IA investigation: I'm bummed today about the third recent suicide in the jail: a 19-year-old man. The other apparent suicides were another 19-year-old and a man in his 40s I believe. From my experience with the Butler county Sheriff in the 1970s, one personal and one involving the Sheriff's participation in riots at Miami University following a Vietnam rally, they're all corrupt pigs. I hope the tables are turned over in investigating this rush of "suicides."

Last night's "Brothers and Sisters":
Potential SPOILAGE
DR Matth wrote:
"Good show, but I didn't quite get Kevin's hot and cold behavior with Chad."
Last week, Chad's agent told Kevin that his client would be coming out BECAUSE of Kevin, and Kevin's reaction seemed clear to me: He did not envision a "relationshp" with this man. He wanted to date him openly, yes. He didn't want to have to be secretive, no. But he totally did not want anything to do with being "saddled" with the responsibility for Chad's decision because it implied a commitment to this one person.
Last night, he continued his waffling and -- asswipe -- ways. Kevin is not really a very nice person....at least, not as he is being written. He's just another one of those gay characters who wants a boyfriend and sex but NONE OF THE RESPONSIBILITIES that a commitment might imply.
Good for Chad for having the guts to come out, and great for Chad for telling Kevin they have no future. And to hell with Kevin. He does not deserve a decent relationship on this show until he faces his own hypocrisies.

Thank you Elmore, your advice is appreciated. My dad and I had a long chat this weekend. He is still snarky and that is good. Still ticked at the Twins... that is good!
Thank you each of you very much for the vibes, the next few weeks will be very trying. So If i accidently get grumpy and growly please bear with me.
Though I do have to say, I have to applaud my dad for telling Aunt Vulture off.

Saw the GRINDHOUSE flick on Friday, which did not really do that great at the box office. A good reason is because it is arse-numbingly long.
If you like crazy violence and some oddball humor, the film can be enjoyable. The Tarantino-directed half bogged down for me with a lot of pseudo-hip jibber jabber. And I sure wish QT would give up appearing in movies as he is just godawful. But Kurt Russell is excellent.

DR RODZINSKI they certainly missed a good bet having you on the panel.

I am disappointed he was not asked, he is a bright and intelligent individual!

I think any of the last three Star Wars movies would have been better if made pre-CGI.
-
Twins bounced back to win yesterday and take two of three from the White Sox.
Yes they did. He felt they played much better in the win...
-
I agree about the Star Wars movies Rodz...
Micheal Collins would have been better in the past. The storyline was not badly written but there were some casting issues.

Besmirch away -- besmirched is so close to being besmirked -- :)
(...besides I have the skin of a rhino --figuratively... and literally, being over the hill and all...)
Oil of Olay can help with that....it did wonders for me. 8)

Loving the CREATURE soundtrack CD!!!
The cues are so funny....I watched the movie a couple of weeks ago in anticipation!!!
My favorite cues: Cooking With John, main/end titles, and of course the songs. The mysterious cues work very well, and I wish I had had them last summer to use for DEATH BY CHOCOLATE....
And we have karaoke versions of FACE and BILLS!!!!
The BACHELOR BILLS song certainly works even better because of the charm of the two characters/performers....
MR BK is that you directing Mr Crawford on that last track? I must say replacing his MAX was a terrible mistake....as you write in your liner notes...

I'm up, I'm up.
Even I don't have my Creature CDs yet - they were supposed to be here on Friday, but that didn't happen. I'm told today, but haven't heard anything. Damn them, damn them all to hell.

DakotaCelt, you missed my bathroom story while you were out of town last week.
We were having a repipe done to replace the 45-year-old galvanized water pipes. When the plumber cut into the bathroom wall, we discovered that the previous bathroom renovator did shoddy work and that the whole bathroom would have to be gutted to fix the other guy's work.
So after all this, I will just get a regular bathroom -- nothing fancy.

Appropro the Joshua Bell incident...
A good friend of mine is a painter and sculptor of some renown--many of his paintings are in museums. We sometimes get together in NY and visit the museums. One day we were at the Guggenheim and there was a group of art students doing sketches from the paintings. It occurred to me: Do they know who he is? No, of course not. They'll assume he's just another tourist. I turned to him and asked, "Are any of your works here at the Guggenheim?" His reply: "Not that I know of," which surprised me as I had assumed that you'd KNOW if your work was there, but of course that isn't true. If one of his works WAS there, well, I'd have to really restrain myself from telling all and sundry.
And my friend looks like a street person, but that's another story!
-
Slow news day? The article is far too long in my opinion, but it was an interesting stunt and I think makes an interesting point: that for many people art needs some kind of validation to get their attention and recognition.
thanks, Singdaw.
It WAS self-indulgent! I, too, wished the writer would just move things along.
Frankly, I think I'd have recognized him. But if I heard the Bach "Chaconne" being played on a Stradivarius by the likes of Joshua Bell, I'd want someone to SHOOT ME if I didn't stop and burst into tears at the sheer beauty of it all.

I've gotten a notice every year for the past 6 years. Have only wasted a day waiting to see if I would go to a jury room for selection.
The other times I've been dismissed by phone.
-
I watched the second episode of THE TUDORS to begin my afternoon viewing. Superb storyline that held my interest from beginning to end, and lots of wonderful male eye candy, of course. Sad to see my beloved Steven Waddington go, and my beloved Jeremy Northam isn't slated to last the entire run of the season either.
Still, it's grand pageantry and a soap opera supreme.

Back in the early 1980s, I was dismissed by phone from duty, too. Those are the only two times my name has been selected.
-
Next, I watched last night's COLD CASE. This one was a VERY cold case, back to 1919 dealing with the women's suffrage movement. Interesting case, and I should have been able to guess the killer's identity, but I was led astray by one clue (a black eye) and got fooled.
-
Next, I watched last night's RENO 911. Some good blackout sketches (Dangle knowing a guy's face at the opening was very funny and loved Junior stopping a speeding car and getting intrigued by how modified the car was), but the born-again stuff was kind of lame.
-
I spent the last 20 minutes watching PRIDE & PREJUDICE again on HBO-HD. Since I have it on DVD, I didn't continue on to the end, but it's such an involving film that you can land anywhere within it and be transfixed.
-
I watched a "Without A Trace" Saturday night. It was about a 9-1-1 operator who went missing after receiving a threatening phone call.
There was an all-too-brief appearance by Sean O'Bryan, a fine talent, as a doctor she believed raped her while she was in college. Of course, she was wrong...her doctor was in prison.

I guess I won't have ANDY to kick around any more. NBC has canceled the show ANDY BARKER P.I. and will burn off the last two episodes on Saturday night at 8. I must say I'm not surprised.

For the most part i really liked last night's DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES.
SPOILERS
SPOILERS
I guess we have to see Edie's story as a replacement for bree (marcia cross) being out having her babies.
I really liked gabrielle's story. I like her new love interest. And i loved watching her steal the dresses. You just knew she was going to do it.
I don't really like ian (never have). So not that interested in all the pre-num drama. Although watching susan be so clumsy was funny.
And it was interesting to see lynnette get all mad and then find her husband was injured. That should put a new twist on things.
Not sure what i think of edie and carlos. I'll have to reserve judgment on that one. But overall very entertaining show.

Battered hump - that should be the name of a dish of some sort

I wonder if that play will still be going on if/when I go to NY in June??? I must be sure to get some cultural education while I am there, after all.

You know, maybe a 1950s version of BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN starring Aldo Ray and Jeff Richards? I would enjoy that as well.

I read that as subtitles!
Perhaps that's because we now have a version of Sacco and Vanzetti fully subtitled in Italian. (Except the stuff that already IS in Italian.)

I'm too tired to do the scrolling thing. We got in from LA at 1:30. Poor DH had a 7:45 call so he had to get back up at 5:30 to pack up geat and drive across town.
I'm going to sleep well tonight!

Appropro the Joshua Bell incident...
A good friend of mine is a painter and sculptor of some renown--many of his paintings are in museums. We sometimes get together in NY and visit the museums. One day we were at the Guggenheim and there was a group of art students doing sketches from the paintings. It occurred to me: Do they know who he is? No, of course not. They'll assume he's just another tourist. I turned to him and asked, "Are any of your works here at the Guggenheim?" His reply: "Not that I know of," which surprised me as I had assumed that you'd KNOW if your work was there, but of course that isn't true. If one of his works WAS there, well, I'd have to really restrain myself from telling all and sundry.
And my friend looks like a street person, but that's another story!
And missing one ear probably didn't help.

We had a great Easter: brunch with my former editing assistant, her DH and mother-in-law who was visiting from England.
Her DH is a writer (HELLRAISER series, among other things) so he keeps up on the entertainment mags. He told us that he'd seen our film in Entertainment Weekly.
Whaaaaa??? First we'd heard about it. So after brunch we all wandered over to one of those amazing newsstands you can find in LA (this one on Larchmont) and bought a copy.
Now only was S&V the "EW Pick" but the head reviewer, Owen Glieberman, gave us an "A"... the only solid A review apart from GRINDHOUSE, so we were quite excited. I called Peter immediately and he was jumping for joy.
After reading Rodzinski's GRINDHOUSE impressions, I can at least say that our film isn't butt-numbing, as it's only 81 minutes.
This is great news for us. I hope it will help us pick up some more theatres!
-
"True, in most cases a bald head does make a man more sexy!"
I think so!
-
Someone (Jrand...singdaw?) mentioned here on Saturday that EW had given you an "A". My copy arrived today, and I am trying to resist the urge to go straight to the movie reviews.
-
All packages have been shipped - actually only awaiting payment on one, and that will go out as soon as payment arrives. There's a big French film festival starting next week at the DGA and I've booked about six films - love French cinema so am looking forward to seeing this stuff.

Jrand, if you want it signed, send me the booklet.

I won't have Creature CDs until tomorrow. Very annoying.

Oh! How did I miss that? Well...I know how I missed that. I was having too much fun in LA!
It was easy to feel celebratory with all that was going on, plus I don't think I mentioned that my Dad went home from the hospital the day we left.
Ahem...page 55...
-
Jrand, if you want it signed, send me the booklet.
I have an old Jim Nabors' CD; if I send you the booklet will you sign that?
-
Just got home, ready to go down stairs and check to see if my creature cd arrived.
-
I will get the booklet to you sooner or later....thanks, MR BK. No rush.
-
Must have been DR SINGDAW who mentioned the E blurb.....I don't read the mag!
Congrats to DR EDISAURUS!
-
I have NO BK signature on my CD
DR JRand56 - Do you still have the brown outer mailing envelope? Check inside. My CD was assembled with a book. There was an extra book loose inside the mailing envelope; that was the one that was signed.

How delighful, I go down and am lucky enough to have a Creature cd in my mail...then come back upstairs to discover a hidden track on No Way to Treat a Lady. Very funny!

Oh no, dear RP, not a forum monitor at all. Just a small "style" element that I thought Naomi would want to know. If we were to have an official monitor, it would probably be someone who could bark orders in a rather "naval-military" manner. :o ;D
Ohhh...Der Brucer, eh!
-
my mouse roller isn't working...
I once worked with an administrative assistant who told me that she couldn't perform a function in Microsoft Word. When I came over to see what the problem was she said, "Look, see? I've run out of mouse pad!"

I kid you not!

Have you a spray fragrance handy to disguise the odor?
der Brucer
Yes, like a cedary pine scent or something?

The cats were very glad to see us when we got home. I like to think the missed us but I think they really missed the fact that we keep the heat on for them when it's cold, something the cat sitter didn't do. It wasn't very cold, but still, they are spoiled.
-
Bailey, my large "love cat" was all over me as soon as I sat down. He smelled sweet and perfumey, probably from the cat sitter, who likes to carry him around on her shoulders.
It was weird..I felt like he had been cheating on me!

Things are starting to get weird at work (starting..hello where have I been)
Anyway, I can tell that it isn't going to be pleasant as things wind down. The lawyer who is left just doesn't get it. He thinks he can just say, "I'm only taking my own cases" and they will send someone from Des Moines to take my remaining cases and the other cases that come up until a new person starts. Guess again chump. It's already to the point where I won't finish the cases I have because I'll be gone when that time arrives. So, a situation arose today that he could have easily said "Ok, I'll just take the case now" which is what anyone else would have done. No not him.
The others in the office told me NOT to email our boss. (Oh please, they sent email complaining if my tone of voice wasn't pleasant enough for them) So what did I do....emailed the boss. My clients are what matter. They aren't making arrangements for what will happen when I'm gone and it's getting very irritating.

Did I mention when I told a well placed court person that I wouldn't mind hiring one of the temps the other lawyer didn't like and let go, the court person said "I thought you would be harder to work for, your standards are so much higher than his".

I just want to be loved. I'm sure that's a quote from somewhere. (maybe "Chicago")

Today I went to look at the new office again. I look in the window from time to time. I decided to say hello to the internet providers who office next door. They are really nice fun guys who are willing to help me set up a web site etc. I think I'm really going to like having them next door.

Actually talking to those guys made my day. They are funny and will be great to joke around with or have a cup of coffee with when I'm tired of sitting in my office by myself or need a quick break. What I'm learing is there is a lot of empty office space in the Orpheum building. I don't think it's a real priority since the theatre does so well. Anyway, the people who office there are a family of sorts. Everyone knows everyone and everyone I meet says "You know we're a small group here, you'll like it"
I think that sounds fun. The computer guys had some contacts they want me to meet who they think can help me. Including a bilingual temp service. That may be a great way to have a part time receptionist! Oy. I may need to buy a second computer sooner than I want to

It WAS self-indulgent! I, too, wished the writer would just move things along.
Frankly, I think I'd have recognized him. But if I heard the Bach "Chaconne" being played on a Stradivarius by the likes of Joshua Bell, I'd want someone to SHOOT ME if I didn't stop and burst into tears at the sheer beauty of it all.
I, too, think I would have recognized him. Even if I didn't, I do believe I'd know I was listening to one competent musician. And I have stopped people at times and asked what they "really" did, ie the obviously bright grad student who was waiting tables, etc.
-
Well, it is indoors! And the john doesn't need to dumped out of the window: the Pilgrims would be envious. Calvinists would consider it an unacceptable self-indulgence.

Just finished watching DANCING WITH THE STARS.
I thought Joey and Kym had the best dance. And i still really like apolo and juliane. My other favorites were heather and jonathan (he does such great choreography for her) and billy ray and karina (really like the choreography she did this time). She is making the most out of what she had (a mediocre dancer). I also thought ian and cheryl were quite good.
Again my least favorites are clyde and john. I really dislike both of them. I would actually guess that at least one of them will be in the bottom 2. I'm guessing john can't be as popular.
-
Watching "Thank God You're Here" which isn't as horrible as I thought it would be.....
I will have to say that the person with the BEST set up was the weakest performer! And the person I thought I would like the least was terrific!
I do however think the show will get OLD very fast.

AMAZING RACE SPOILERS

MORE TAR SPOILERS

*
*
Btw, i'm not sure if the interview mentions this or not. But the editing left out the real reason why the couple was eliminated last night.
This sort of annoys me. I get that they are creating a story. But they should stick with the truth.
They were on the Early show today and julie chen questioned them.
Anyhow julie asked them why they missed their connecting flight. And it turns out they got to the airport in time. But at the original place where they got their tix the printer broke before it could print the tix for their connecting flight. They were told they could have them printed at the connecting flight airport. But when they got there they were passed from person to person and THAT IS WHY THEY missed their flight.
Annoying.

Dr Jennifer, I like Dustin and Candace better but I really am irritated by Charla and Mirna. That being said, when they came in first and second, I thought "wouldn't it be cool to have 2 all female teams in the final 2?"

I read the interview with the kicked off couple. They did include the stuff about the printer. But I found their comments about the edit very interesting

I watched the second episode of THE TUDORS to begin my afternoon viewing. Superb storyline that held my interest from beginning to end, and lots of wonderful male eye candy, of course. Sad to see my beloved Steven Waddington go, and my beloved Jeremy Northam isn't slated to last the entire run of the season either.
Still, it's grand pageantry and a soap opera supreme.
I am hoping it will be released on DVD...

I'm just popping in for a brief moment...... I hope DR Michael S is feeling better also.....and dear Esteemed and guapo BK -- don't sit in the jacuzzi so long as to go all "pruny". It would definitely be non-seemly!

I was a contestant on Chain Reaction. The version without the celebrities. I won $1000.

Next, I watched HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER. An okay episode this week; not up to some past ones this season, but fitfully amusing, especially the mother's story of her wedding gift not knowing she was talking about a dildo.
-
OLD CHRISTINE had Dave Foley and Blair Underwood as Christine's suitors. It had some good laughs tonight as well.

Well... I did not have to play "Tomorrow" at all today. Instead, I played "Let Me Entertain You" and "May We Entertain You" about 50 times. -Which wasn't so bad.

'24' ended its suitcase bomb storyline tonight, but with the show still six weeks away from finishing its season, what could they do? Bring back a loved one in jeopardy and reinvolve the Chinese in the story, that's what. Should get us through the end of the season.

And now that I have caught up. I shall go to bed.

...And I still feel a bit like I did this morning when I woke up: sleepy. I took the train down to Columbus Circle, and as I walked down to 44th Street, I could just feel the past couple of days catching up with me. Thankfully, the room we were holding the auditions had lots of windows, so it was bright and sunny. And since the audition slots were leisurely paced, I actually was able to get a few cat naps in throughout the afternoon.
And then since it turned out today's session was going until 7:00 instead of 6:00... I decided that I wanted to treat myself to a nice dinner after the session was done. So, I called my friend, Jim, and asked if he wanted to go to Becco tonight. And we did. And the dinner, as always, was wonderful. *And the strawberry panna cotta - WOW!

Is Joe Besser on your husband list?
-
Oy. I just got an email from the district office for the meeting this weekend. According to Travelocity, Yahoo Travel, etc., the hotel they booked for us to stay in is a pit.

So many users, so few postings in the last hour.

A nice review for The Brain from Andy Probst on some XM radio show:
I'll start with the cast recording of a musical from California. It's a bit of silliness from Kritzerland Records called "The Brain From Planet X." Now on this one, I don't think that all of the true charms of Bruce Kimmel and David Wechter's faux 1950s horror movie all come through outside of performance, but there's a lot to be enjoyed here as a group of aliens try to destroy the perfect nuclear family in the San Fernando Valley. It's all very cheese-y and there's more than a little bit of musical theater spoofery going on in here – a particular favorite is "Saucers in the Sky" – which sounds to me like a grand homage to "Five Black Dragons" from Sondheim's "Pacific Overtures." I imagine you'll find yourself smiling and humming along with this tuneful creation.

Nice review.

I took my DH to an urgent care clinic tonight, as he is feeling poorly. If I get what he has, I won't be making that trip to The Pit in Santa Ana.

My mother and I adored the Creature cd, and laughed many times.

Wink Martindale's Black Land Farmer is emigrating from Melbourne Oz to Fargo ND.
I knew my collection of 45 rpm recordings from 1961 would eventually be of use.
