Well, you've read the notes, the notes had nothing veiled, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're currently getting a Brazilian wax whilst enjoying the sounds of the Bossa Nova.

And the word of the day is: GORGONIZE!
-
Gorgonize is Mr Oliver Stone favourite verb!
-
You turn to stone if you look into a Gorgon's eyes.
-
Actually, Mr Stone plans to do a his version of Gorgone With The Wind!
-
You turn to stone if you look into a Gorgon's eyes.
It happened to actors who looked into Mr Stone's eyes, I was told!
I keep looking for Gorgons but they seem to have disappeared from view!
-
My favourite Gorgon was Gorgon MacCrae who could "cut it on stone!"
-
Vincent Price
The Abominable Dr Phibes is to blame for my loathing of having blood taken! Poor Terry Thomas.
It was a favourite film of OzDerek.
My favourite performace by Mr Price was in The Muppet Show.
-
As mentioned months ago, my second favourite Gorgon is Zola!
-
What Price gorgon?!
-
I haven't seen enough Price movies to have a favourite...
Petrifying, no?!

The Dr Who episode tonight was fun... it illicted several squeals of fright from the Vixter... she loves this show

I wish this new Doctor was not so Earth Bound. It was good to see the talented John Simm in this series.

Well my Good Night Australia, Good Night France.... time for New York to get some sleep

My favourite Gorgon was Gorgon MacCrae who could "cut it on stone!"
You mean he could fart while pacing the castle floor? No wonder he never played Lancelot!

Good Morning!
Boy am I glad I don't have rehearsal until 1:30 tomorrow afternoon. However, I had planned to get my haircut tomorrow morning, but I'm thinking a good night's and partial morning's sleep would do me good. -And after the cocktails and wine and aperitifs I had tonight at dinner, well...
-
And for yesterday's posts...
DR TCB - Mary Poppins has three "teams" of Banks children (a Jane and a Michael). There are two new Janes-in-training who will be starting at the beginning of October. Alas, the previous Janes have outgrown the show - literally - they're getting too tall.
-
DR Ron Pulliam - Yes, my "quasi-first-date" knew it was going to be a quasi-first-date. Although, it turned out to be quite a wonderful "first meeting" - for all of us at the table. And since we were all from different professional arenas, the conversation was all over the place - and that was a good thing.
-
DR Ginny - As for the current My Fair Lady tour... E-mail me. :)
-
DR singdaw - You mean you don't have the handy-dandy Pocket Hanky Code Guide?
*Or is the online version bookmarked and/or listed in your Favorites? ;)
-
And as for dinner earlier tonight... I really did have a wonderful time. I was basically the "fourth wheel" at the table, but soon after sitting down, it was like we had all been friends for years. I'm still amazed, for lack of a better word, at how well we all got along. The evening flew by - when we went to check the time after we had had our desserts - and the complimentary digestif - we were all surprised to find that it was already past 11:00 - and we had been there since 7:30.
In short, tonight was just what I needed after an uncharacteristically stressful week for me. Good food, good drink, good company. And, most importantly, some good friends. Good new friends. -And not a single Chimney Sweep or Nanny in sight. ;)
-
In other news...
Well...
Lemme see what I can remember...
-
One of my favorite Vincent Price performances was in "Laura," because it seemed laughable that he and Gene Tierney would be such a hot couple. There was an interesting chemistry there with Judith Anderson though.
Speaking of Laura, special thanks to DRLaura who gave me a ride home from the airport yesterday.
I'm off for much needed rest. It was nice being away from 108 degree weather for awhile, though!
-
DR td - I'm suspecting Mr. Hamlisch will lead the orchestra in a few selections from the "West Side Story Dance Suite", and probably a solo version of "Maria" sung by the tenor. I'd say there's a chance that Bernadette Peters might sing "Somewhere" - I think I've heard do that in concert at one point and time. She does have some Bernstein in her repertoire, so those charts could be pulled out too.
I'd say go, especially if you've already paid for the tickets.
-
Mr PianoMan is back from his date with Poppins!
Umm... His name was/is "Shawn".
-
As for the Topic of the Day...
Well, the only thing that comes to mind right now is "House of Wax". Oh, and the voiceover at the end of Michael Jackson's "Thriller".
-
OK... Time for me to go to sleep.
Goodnight.

Carol's Dress Returned -- By a Homeless Fan!
09-14-2007
TMZ has learned that Carol Channing's prized "diamond dress" has been
returned. Hallelujah!
TMZ spoke with a rep for the Hollywood Renaissance hotel who told us that a homeless Caucasian man -- a person completely not fitting the description of the person of interest caught on surveillance tape -- walked into the hotel lobby about an hour ago. The man approached a hotel security guard and handed over a bag containing the dress. The man told the guard that he found the dress in a plaid shopping bag in a park in Hollywood. He said he was a huge fan of Ms. Channing's and had heard about the stolen dress on the news, and felt the need to return it to her.
We've learned Carol met with the man this evening, and even took a couple of pictures. No word on whether the man will receive a reward for the return.
-
Boy, I must say, it's tough to keep up when I'm not working at a place where I can access the internet and I don't have my home service set up yet.
The phone should be connected on Tuesday. Why so long when they don't even have to come out---they just flip a switch or something...
-
Morning to you all. I'm in the office and popping in and out.
Later!
-
I am up early waiting for Comcast to hook up the cable. This was suposed to happen last Saturday---then Sunday---then Wednesday---and now today. And between all those bogus appointments and lost work, I have probably talked to 20 different people there who assured me that everything was "in progress".
Apparently they pay people just to listen to you complain and then agree with you and then do nothing.
If they didn't have a monopoly here, they would be out of business. And I've heard the same horror stories from everyone else I've talked to about it. I would be embarrassed to tell someone I worked for them!
-
Wow---what a terrible way to re-enter the room. Sorry!
Hi bk, Ben and singdaw! Looking forward to seeing you all in NY. It's one of the things that's keeping me going. I'm hoping today that we will at last have a working shower in the house!
-
OK, so I'm caught up to "Widgets". Thankfully, my neighbor has returned home from his trip and turned on his airport!
-
Hello, DR Edisaurus. We miss you. ***COPING VIBES*** to you. Some day you'll be able to laugh about all this!
-
There have been some positive things. We haven't really unpacked yet so the cats have been confined to the bedroom, bath and kitchen. Being in such close quarters and the bedroom really the only liveable place where work isn't going on, they have bonded and even the standoffish cat, who has never slept with us or gotten on the bed, will now sleep there with several other cats.
After the cable guy ocmes (my appointment is for 8-11 which means 5:30) we plan to let the kitties explore more of the house---the living room and dining room. There are lots of windows, so they should enjoy that!
-
I mis-read our schedule today - I could have slept an extra half-hour. Oh, well. Rainy out today.
-
Good morning, all! It is indeed a rainy morning and I am thrilled to stay inside and work on "The Brain" charts. The tiny fixes are accomplished and I'm two-thirds through the new "All About Men" so all that's left now are the "Brain Tap," Curtain Calls, and Exit Music. I may run out to do a few errands, but I'll be primarily homebound.
I need to hit the post office because I have no stamps; I sent out a ton of postcards for "The Brain" and I want to send a few more before Monday. I finally broke down and sent the Macbeths one, but they're still going out of my will.
DR edisaurus, it's good to see you and know you are surviving.
DR Ginny, all quiet on the Midwestern front?
-
Saturday morning greetings. I was finally able to sleep past 6am, which is pretty amazing since I slept on the couch in the family room. With no curtains in our bedroom and DH Richard in Toledo, that was my option. I actually fell asleep watching Giada on the food channel - she was in New York City at H & H Bagels.
DR Ginny, all quiet on the Midwestern front?
Yes, DR Elmore, it is. Today I'm going to the grocery to order some lunch trays for Monday, then pick up my mom. She's going to help me put a couple of our windows back together and then we're going to eat clam dip and watch Michigan try to play football. Richard will probably return from Toledo sometime during the game.
-
DR Edisaurus, nice to see you back here - sorry I missed you! How's your dad?
-
Good morning, fellow Dear Readers.

Congratulations to The Last Starfighter for adding one performance.

DRs Matt H. and George - Entertainment Weekly says the "Brothers & Sisters" box set Season 1 does not contain the unaired pilot w/Buckley.
I didn't say it was the unaired pilot. The box art claims a "bonus unaired episode." Not having gotten to it yet, I don't know what it is.

Good morning!
It was oh so cool this morning, and I am currently enjoying the outside air being pulled through my office and the downstairs by the attic fan. Sheer heaven!

With three TV shows on the DVR (BURN NOTICE, PSYCH, MONK) and another new episode of TORCHWOOD coming on tonight, I have plenty of TV other than BROTHERS & SISTERS to watch today.
I was up so early this morning, I started to finish episode 11 of B&S that I had started last night, but I didn't. I've been surfing the internet all morning instead.

Happy Anniversary to Singdaw and his hubby! 20 years together is a millstone to be proud of!

And I'm so sorry to hear about Cillaliz's lawyer friend. It's shocking when someone is gone that quickly. And I can totally relate to your feelings regarding some of the thoughts that have crossed your mind. You are not alone--I'm sure many of us have had those sorts of thoughts.

Off to clean litter boxes and make sure everything is ready for the return of Miss Callie Sue
-
Very sorry to hear about MBarnum's friend---he sounded like a wonderful person. I guess if you have to go, that's the way I would want to go, too. Quick and relatively painless.
The receptionist where I mainly work has been out for 2 weeks. When I was working there last week people were crying and hugging each other. It took a while to find out what was going on because they all had to take turns telling me because they kept breaking down.
The receptionist has inoperable cancer, is on feeding and fluid tubes and has a prognosis of 4-6 weeks. And she was just working with us and seemed fine. She doesn't have any family, so the folks at work were her extended faily and everyone is taking it very hard. She is going to go home and receive hospice care. It's so hard to believe...I guess I won't until I go to see her.
-
Now I have to catch up with what's happening with Callie!
-
So sorry to hear this, DR EDISAURUS.....things like that are always shocking and bring us to a harsh reality.
-
Good morning, HHW.
Glad you're back, Edi.
Welcome home, DC Callie.
Good news on STARFIGHTER, FJL. Glad to hear it.

Fall of the House of Usher - as a blond!

The weather here is cool and lovely--such a relief from heat and humidity. Like MATTH, I am rejoicing.
-
Last night we couldn't have bought a laugh from the audience. A laugh here and there but mostly crickets....it was disconcerting.
Even the doctor sketch ("a dead person would laugh at that sketch") was greeted with mostly silence. Scary.
I dropped two lines.....and Willie decided to ad lib to liven things up, which it didn't. In answer to my question: "Where do you live?" Instead of replying "Mt. Sinai Hospital" he decided to use the name of a local hospital "Methodist Hospital" instead.....
CRICKETS CRICKETS CRICKETS
Then we went to the director's house for a party....tonight after the final performance we will strike the set....

Must go take care of some chores.

Comcast.EEAARRGH!!!!I've gotten four 5$ rebates this year for when the service goes out for a day, but it takes about an hour of phone waiting. I feel your pain, sister...Fave V Price flick is HOUSE OF WAX, esp in 3-D on the Wide Screen. But my favorite Price perfomance of all is On the Styne/Harburg DARLING OF THE DAY; You can't top a Vincent Price musical, especially when Patricia Routledge does most of the singing. But Price is pretty good too, with songs probably meant for Rex Harrison
-
Wow - how could I forget THE PIT AND THE PENDULUM?
-
Good Morning!
I'm up, I'm up... And I've actually been up since 8:00!
-I just woke up, and felt awake - well, at least capable of putting my feet on the floor - so I put my feet on the floor, and then eventually headed down to Chelsea to get my hair cut - I was about a week overdue.
There were already five guys ahead of me by the time I got there - and I got there just a couple of minutes after they opened. However, I had my iPod and a copy of New York Magazine so that kept me occupied, and I only ended up waiting for about half an hour before a chair freed up. -It helped that three of them were waiting for "Max", but it appeared that Max was running late this morning. However, once he showed up, he took his first client, and so on and so forth. I got my hair cut by the new guy - who's name I have yet to pick up - and it's a very good cut. Ahhhh.
-
And, yes, it's a cool morning here in NYC. I went out in just t-shirt and shorts, and I probably should have brought a light jacket with me. And there have been pockets of rain here and there too. But now, at least here in Harlem, the sun has broken through the clouds, and it looks quite idyllic in our backyard. :)
-
Hmm... Just checked the weather forecast for today - It's supposed to stay in the low 60s all day. Nice. :)
-
DR JRand - Have a wonderful closing performance tonight.
-
DR edisaurus - Good to hear that your move is still moving. As for Comcast, well... When I was in Richmond, I always had wonderful service, so... But, then again, I'm also the guy that's never really had any troubles with AOL or the U.S. Post Office either, so... ;)
I hope the cats like their new home. Well, the rest of their new home. :)

DR JRand - Have a wonderful closing performance tonight.

Thanks to both GEORGE and TOMOVOZ for clearing up that little mystery last night (my memory relapse). Yes, the name I was trying to recall was Sigerson Holmes, but I didn't know it was an alias and he's a US citizen. So much goes on behind the scenes here!

Now must go get rid of more STUFF. Someone's coming by to pick up a few things I don't need. always nice to find homes (Holmes) for things.

There's a curtrent rumor floating about that once it was known the Russian hands and Roman fingers of DR Jose would be gracing the show, the entire male cast put in for hazard pay. :-*
DR edisaurus, some how I missed the news on your dad's health. I blame our DR Jose for that, and I 'm happy to hear things are improving.

Many, many years ago, the Guthrie Theater did a production of Skin of Our Teeth. I loved it, and saw it many times, but it was a disaster for the theater, I think, and between the first and last acts usually half the audience had left.
Two actors... the one playing the father and another guy whose role I don't precisely remember anymore - not Cain, had a little schtick going in one scene, a lot of clever repartee, and they invariably changed their lines each night. I used to go see it just to see what they were going to do next with that scene (and also just out of curiousity to see if there was ever a night when half the audience DIDN'T walk out...but they always did.)
And now 20 years later I can't even remember the details....just the vague outlines and the fact that I thought it was hilarious.... god it sucks to get old. Actually, it sucks to not have had the nerve to make a bootleg copy of the production... not that I'd have had the knowledge to do so back then...

Good morning, fellow Dear Readers. Anything else I might say would just be a rant, so I will spare you.

The Ashland post office has never been open on Saturdays. Conveniently located on our end of town is a small post office in the back of the Rite Aid, which is open on Saturdays. At least it was. I intended to mail an important package today & discovered it is now closed on Saturdays with no plan to reopen. Bummer!

DR Laura-Did you need to change the code at the church or were you able to resolve the problem?

Callie is indeed home, but she's not feeling very well at all. Several of the staff asked if she was going home for the weekend and the vet said if she doesn't do her doody, she'll have to go back. Also she has the equivilent of diaper rash and is very very sore. She was not happy there at all. So, I am determined to do whatever I need to to keep her home.
So I've set up the spare bedroom for her with her food and litter box (which she has been using already) She is going to stay in there until she has recovered a little more. She was VERY aggitated at the vet today, but was very glad to see me. She seemed to know we were going home and the minute I brought her carrier into the house she started purring.
It's taking her a while to unwind. I left her alone for awhile then went up and it took me a while to calm her down again. Once she calmed down, I spent about 20 minutes just sitting on the bed reading my book while she was curled up purring. I just left her alone again to see if she'll get some sleep. I'm going to keep doing that so she gets over the idea that when someone approaches her it's to do some procedure that isn't going to be pleasant.
She and Boo have seen each other a couple times, but Callie is just too sore and has been too upset for the past few days to have Boo bothering her right now. Boo isn't pleased, but she knows that Callie is home and she seems more relaxed too.

News from DownUnder:
COSMOS (http://www.cosmosmagazine.com/node/1567)
Organic food exposed
...
THE SURPRISING FACT IS that this mass migration to organic food has not been on the back of scientific evidence. In fact, you'd be hard pressed to find comprehensive evidence that organic food is healthier – either for us or the planet.
...
COSMOS is a print magazine that treats science as natural part of culture, covering it from many angles: art, design, travel, interviews, humour, history and opinion.

It appears my weekend will be spent with the girls. That's fine with me. I can use some nice quiet time myself. Think I'll go to the store in a little while and get a little roast beef and make roast beef and rice.
It's only supposed to get up to 60 degrees today after a record cold night of 32 deegrees and tomorrow will be near 80 degrees again, so today is a good day to stay home, make some comfort food, comfort the cats and read my book. I'm reading Nathan Leopold's Life plus 99 Years. He doesn't talk about his childhood or the details of the murder, but it's fascinating to read his point of view of the time immediately after the murder through the trial.
-
Thanks Der B.
-
And thanks everyone for letting me go on about Callie over the past few days and being so supportive about it. It means a lot to me. While I've been confident (and still am) that she will recover, it's still nerve wracking not to have her here with me, especially knowing what she's going through. So, thanks

Yum, that does sound good. Care to share your recipe, Cillaliz?
Welcome home vibes to Callie.

The Ashland post office has never been open on Saturdays. Conveniently located on our end of town is a small post office in the back of the Rite Aid, which is open on Saturdays. At least it was. I intended to mail an important package today & discovered it is now closed on Saturdays with no plan to reopen. Bummer!
Nursie, surely there's a Fed Ex office open today in Ashland.
-
DR elmore, I didn't think of that. :-[ ;D It may be too late now, I'll see.
-
Poor Callie. Having her in a separate room, with her own kitty litter, will make it easier to track her "activities". Let's just hope there is loads of activity in the box. Enjoy your day snuggling with the girls. It must be difficult having to alternate rooms.

Well, you season the roast however you choose, I keep it simple with salt and pepper with garlic and onion and put it in the oven at 350 in my le creuset dutch oven with a lid with a little bit of water in the bottom of the pan so it doesn't stick. While the roast cooks, I soak one cup of rice in 1 can of beef consume soup. Check the roast periodically. When you think there is about 1/2 hour left put the rice in with the roast. Or you can take the roast out and let it rest while the rice cooks in the pan. My mom always cooked her roast low and slow. It would be well done, but cooked long enough that it was tender. Also, if you leave the roast in the pan, it soaks up some of the flavor from the consume. Pretty basic, but tasty
-
Damn, I bought this computer program, Printshop, specifically because it said I would be able to use the cloning feature on photos, which my Printmaster and HP Image Processing do not allow. Well, it does it, but a very poor version of cloning, and only in round circles. Oh well, I only spent $19.99 on the damn CDs, so I guess I can't complain.

Sounds good. I think I will go to McDonald's and have a dollar Double Cheese burger.

My mom always added MSG to the rice, but I don't like to do that. It does taste better though

The meaning of life?
This morning on the way to breakfast with some friends, I saw a man crossing the steet who was wearing a Halloween-type rabbit mask and carrying a rubber tomahawk. He actually had the mask up while he was waiting for the light to change and then put the the mask down to cross the street. I saw no signs of a crew for the filming for a reality show, and Allen Funt is dead, so I have no ide what this means. But it's these little things that keep me going.
Good vibes to all, and may you have a day free of rubber tomahawks!

Kerry, how great to see you here! You seem to disappear faster than David Copperfield.

Come to think of it, yesterday when I went to the store, I saw a guy wearing a skeleton costume.
-
Kerry & TCB- ;D
-
The shipping store (FedEx & UPS) store in town seems to be closed.
-
DR Jane...where do you live? In the hinterlands? ;)
-
;D It feels like it today.
-
I spent the afternoon sorting through some accumulating piles of clutter. I don't feel like I threw enough out, but it does look a darn sight better than before. And I found some valuable things I had misplaced along the way. So that was good. I really need to start in on the laundry, but I'm thinking I'd rather snuggle with Zach and take a nap instead. That's a plan, right? :)
-
It was drizzly this morning, but it's turned into a nice, crisp, partly sunny afternoon. Fall must be coming! I'm sure there will still be plenty of warm days, though.
-
The Dr Who episode tonight was fun... it illicted several squeals of fright from the Vixter... she loves this show
I enjoy that show also. I have some of the classic series on tape also. However, I am really enjoying the news series and I had my doubts that I would.
-
Don't forget to take a photo of Zach with his bandanna on.
-
Hi Dakota. How is everything on the home front?
-
Sorry to be E & T, It has been a hellacious week to say the least. My mother has been ill, a woman at work is in the hospital and that added to my workload and this seemed to be the week of meetings. I had 6 of them! Yesterday, I ran errands and met up with some freinds and we had a good laugh, we were searching youtube, chatting and having a few more good laughs. It was a nice evening.
Thank you for the thoughts. You are a great bunch of people...
-
My dad is holding his own despite being his usual cantankerous self... :)
They are draining fluid off of him at least once a week. He is starting to sleep more and more and is usually bedded down for the night about 830 or 9. He also takes a lot of naps.
-
Glad you managed to have a fun day after your difficult week.
Feel better vibes for mother of DR DakotaCelt!

Seven Veils?
Where is the Seventh Page?
-
A friend of a friend, another serial renovator, came by and picked up two aluminum extension ladders, plus a bunch of odds and ends from various renovation projects--all stuff I no longer need and wish to be rid of. It feels so good to have less! Maybe I'm finally getting the hang of this. Might I even become a Minimalist? I doubt it, but maybe I'll be less of a pack rat--or a magpie, as this fellow today calls it.
-
Let's Push for Seven

All sorts of feel-better vibes for DR DAKOTA CELT and her family.

Re: JANE's postal services:
When I first moved from LA to northern San Diego County I was amazed at how much the area DIDN'T have. I was longing for open spaces, less traffic, less crime, etc, but hadn't realized how much big cities have to offer, nor how much of that I wanted and needed. Small cities and towns have much to offer, but sometimes you're taken by surprise at what you've grown accustomed to--at least I was.

So true Jeanne.
We are off to the dog park.

Oh, give me the simple life! :)

I continued watching BROTHERS & SISTERS for part of the afternoon. I am now in the midst of the story arc with Jason Lewis playing the closet soap opera star dating Kevin.
Also had the memorable episode with Marion Ross as Nora's (Sally Field) mother.
-
I also did take the time to watch Thursday night's excellent BURN NOTICE. I was ahead of Michael in the first act and guessed what was going on before it became obvious to him. Afterward, however, it was one twist and delightful turn after another.
Am going to hate losing the show after next week, but look forward to its return next summer.
-
Tonight, I'll continue with BROTHERS & SISTERS. At 10, I may watch TORCHWOOD which the DVR is recording at 9. At 10, I'll be able to watch it and speed through the BBC-America commercials.
-
I am up early waiting for Comcast to hook up the cable. This was suposed to happen last Saturday---then Sunday---then Wednesday---and now today. And between all those bogus appointments and lost work, I have probably talked to 20 different people there who assured me that everything was "in progress".
Apparently they pay people just to listen to you complain and then agree with you and then do nothing.
If they didn't have a monopoly here, they would be out of business. And I've heard the same horror stories from everyone else I've talked to about it. I would be embarrassed to tell someone I worked for them!
I have not heard good things either about Comcast.
To my knowledge, it is not available. However Cablecom in Fargo is not much better.
-
TCB, i have an old copy of Picture It and you do some fun things with it. I also have Painthouse by Corel.
-
I've had my little internet break and now I'm headed back down to continue with BROTHERS & SISTERS.
WBBL.

TCB, here is an example of one of the graphics I made for a freind. Albeit, it is a soap one but it gives you an idea...
You can do quite a bit with the Digital suite and it works with hp.

Here is another one I did...

Say that to... Callie! ;)
;D
But wait a little while, I finally got her to fall asleep

Everyone has their own unique style. I prefer the soft look for some reason...

OH OH OH Tonight is the big night on Design Star. Will it be Kim or Will it be Todd?

Does anyone out there in the dark know what movie(film noir)the following quote comes from-delivered by an actress
"What am I supposed to do reform? Become Poor but Honest. On what corner would you like me to beat my Tambourine?"
Aha! I plopped a DVD of the Movie I thought it was and it was the one I thought it was-LADY IN THE LAKE. Does anyone remember the Philip Marlowe film noir Directed by and Starring Robert Montgomery.?? The film was shot as if the leading character was the camera. Pretty interesting movie.The actress ,by the way, was Audrey Totter.
-
Dakota Celt-
Very Nice Montages
-
Are they difficult to accomplish? The Montages??

I believe that we are very close to Page Eight, But Im sure that Eight is not enough. It's still early though.
-
EIGHT??

Not quite-But Soon

Drop that last veil

I noticed the Soupe du Jour but I guess I missed the Song of the Day!
I hope it is... fresh! ;)

DR Arnold is in the habit of listing a Song Of The Day. Good idea IMHO.
(I think he is still trying to get "Brazil" out of his head)

Back from a good run-through - lots of fun stuff, in a slightly bigger room that was much easier to play in, and the show ran very smoothly. Good or bad, it's really a very tight, well-oiled show at this point, sans set and lights and sound.
-
So, we'll be going in to our six hours of tech very prepared and all we can do is hope all the tech stuff and having to deal with backstage space and actually being on the stage for the first time doesn't trip us up too much. I'm still hopeful that we'll get to run on Tuesday and Wednesday with costumes.
-
After rehearsal, I had a little meeting, then met Cason and BJ at Hooter's, where I had wings and a salad. I literally could not eat more than seven of the drumettes, so huge are they, and I only had about a quarter of the salad. After that, I treated myself to the only DVD I've purchased in the last seven weeks and it was even 25% off list price even though it doesn't officially come out until next Tuesday - Robinson Crusoe On Mars. I'll try watching it this evening, as I've decided not to make the trek to the lower East side.
-
Are we STILL on page eight?
-
"Well oiled show"?
Hummm... I hope it's not slippery for the tap numbers!
Is it sponsored by the emirates?!
-
By now Craig & Ioana will have said their goodbyes & she is sitting on the plane waiting for take-off. I hope she can sleep because I'm sure it will be a sad flight back to Bucharest. She is returning to finish her last year at the university. A wise decision but difficult for them.
-
BK, how much of THE CAT BURGLAR did you get to see last night? It certainly has a lot of on location filming in Los Angeles.
The scene I am watching now is taking place at the corner of Seward St N and Waring Ave. W., just up from Melrose.
-
While driving to the dog park Keith became weary of the poking car in front of us and took a different route. Thank you pokey car. :)
On the way we passed a cool looking 1952 Cadillac hearse with the license plate 6FT NDR. ;D
A few minutes later we passed our friends who have two Bernese Mountain Dogs. Keith had time to let them know where we were headed. Within half an hour our friend showed up with her 7 month old puppy. :D :D . We were shocked how much the puppy has grown since we last saw her. She’s almost as tall as Sherlock & almost as pretty. I'm kicking myself cuz I almost took my camera with me.
-
Dakota Celt-
Very Nice Montages
Yes, very nice.
I hope you enjoyed your surprise :)
-
I only watched a couple of scenes, MBarnum. If you TIVOd it, you could burn me a DVD.
-
We got to see our two bathing suit boys in their little gold lame affairs and let me just say we'll be taking a photo on Monday or Tuesday and trying to get it online - it will, believe me, sell tickets.
-
Will we never get to page nine?
-
Good Evening!
Back from rehearsal...
Of course, my train "decided" to stop between 72nd and Columbus Circle for about 20 minutes - they were having signal problems again this morning - so I ended up being a few minutes late for rehearsal. It was just 1:30 when the train pulled into Columbus Circle, so I ran up to the street and hailed a cab. Of course, before I could say, "Take 9th Ave.", the cabbie headed toward 7th which meant going through Times Square. I did manage to call the conductor and leave a message to say I would be late - since I didn't have the phone number for stage management - and then as soon as I had left that message, the stage manager called me. And by the time I got to the studio, they were just about ready for me to accompany all the blocking they had just learned. Whew!
In any case, it was a good rehearsal, and tomorrow will be a big review day. And I'm gonna get there an hour early just to be safe!
-
So, did you still tip the cabbie? ;D
-
Does anyone read Better Homes and Gardens COUNTRY GARDENS? If so check out our Ashland friends on page 52 of the Fall issue.
-
Delta's site says Ioana's flight is still waiting to take off. Scheduled departure time shown is 7:05 PM, actual departure time shown is 7:01PM. ???
-
I finally called Delta & the flight did depart early. :D

Are the wings at Hooter"s still,in your valued opinion,the best you've ever had?
-
And if there is a national chain with the concept of Hooters, why isn't there an equivalent chain with male waiters?

Tomovoz-
Hello!

Got the nap in. Didn't start the laundry.
Oh well!

Goood to hear about Callie, too.

I once wrote a faux bio that I thought was rather humorous. I though it would be great to add to my profile at this here site. But I can't locate that file in my computer. I hate it when that happens!
-
And if there is a national chain with the concept of Hooters, why isn't there an equivalent chain with male waiters?
I don't know if CHIPPENDALE'S applies???
And I don't know if it is a Chain

I've never been to a Chippendale's. I wonder if they serve food?

Hi Kerry :)

DR Jane, I have some not great photos. I will try to get them transferred from my camera tomorrow afternoon.

What happened to BK?
Are you watching your new DVD?
-
And soon a perfect TEN.Page-that is
-
Ah, DR François - speaking of eyes, good to "see" you online! :)
Thank you! Same here!
If I'm online, does that mean I'm drying up?!
(Yes, I known! It does not make sense, even though it does in French!) :D

Are you watching your new DVD?
The Attack of 50 Foot Cat Burglar on Mars?

I've still got "The Brain Tap" to recopy with the new dance music and routining and the bass part for the Curtain Calls; everything else is now finished. Tomorrow I'll stop by rehearsal and give the MD everything but "The Brain Tap," which I'll most likely carry to the rehearsal on Monday night.
Yes, BK, I think Steve and Joe in their speedos will boost ticket sales immediately. It's probably a better advetising device for NYMF than the "Roller Derby" ad. I suspect westcoastdrama, who was last seen raging about the Donmar Theatre 2008 season, will be happy to have something else about "The Brain" to piss him (or her or it) off.
-
Well, despite my nap, I'm STILL going to bed early! Just because I can.
Smooches, kids! :)

Yes, the Hooter's wings are the best, ever.
And funnily, Cason and I were saying that they should open a male version in the Village and in Chelsea and in West Hollywood - do we not think it would be a very successful endeavor. Call it Peckers

Are we ready to climb to a Dozen??

Finished Robinson Crusoe On Mars, about which more in the notes. Fun to watch a DVD again, even on the computer screen.

Well, they would definately need a different company policy than Chippendale's and the other male reviews have in Las Vegas. They have signs warning that the shows are intended for WOMEN ONLY, and not for gay men.

The Delta site now shows Ioana is in flight, still having left at 7:01, along with a map tracking the flight. According to the flight-map she hasn’t gone very far. I called the Delta line again to be told by a recording the flight didn’t leave until 8:21.::) Nothing like sitting on a plane almost an hour and a half before take-off, especially on a ten hour flight! I hope they make up the time & have a smooth flight.
-
Poor Iona. I feel sorry for her. It is bad enough she is going away for a year.

I believe the Dirty Dozen is on its way

I must hie myself to the couch to finish one Bollywood movie that I started several days ago...GOPAAL KRISHNA (1979) a colorful devotional film with some strange special effects..I truly believe that Hindi filmmakers learned the craft of special effects from Ed Wood Jr....but it sure does add charm to the mystical goings on.

Well Callie cat is a lot sicker than I thought she would be. She's had some expected problems and some unexpected. Her vet is on call this weekend so I called him a little while ago. I think we've got things under control now. If she's still having problems in the morning, I'm to call back.

Thanks. She's been having a lot of pain. We're trying the prednisone I have on hand to get her through the night. The problem with most pain relievers is they can cause constipation, go figure.

...and then I will start a new Bollywood film called SHALIMAR (1978) starring Dharmendra, Zeenant Aman, Shammi Kapoor and, get this (!)....John Saxon and Rex Harrison!!!

I hear tell it is a very fun movie. It was released in the US and Britain as RAIDERS OF THE SACRED STONE . The western version is also on DVD and I will be watching that one soon too see how it differs from the Indian release.
Interesting how the DVD covers differ, and which performers are shown, depending on what country you are in!

Thank you MBarnum. It doesn't help she had never flown before until last year & was somewhat nervous about it. This is her first flight alone. I hope she doesn't get air sick. At least it is a non-stop flight.
The flight map says she has been in the air & has 6 1/2 hours remaining. It looks as if they are making up for lost time.

Congrats on your rise to the clouds DR ArnoldBrockman! Can you feel the power!!

Poor Callie, and poor Cilla! Wishing you both a restful night & a better tomorrow!

I assume the song and dance numbers have been deleted from the Western version. Although it might be fun to see Harrison reprise WHY CAN'T THE ENGLISH surrounded by Indian dancers.

CONGRATULATIONS DR ARNOLDMBROCKMAN!!
WELCOME TO THE CLOUDS!

Congrats on your rise to the clouds DR ArnoldBrockman! Can you feel the power!!
I feel something...more like a Twinge than a Power. Up there in the clouds,I guess ,with a wonderful slew of you

Oh My God! Thank You
I believe that should be "Oh My, I am a God! Thank you."
-
CONGRATULATIONS DR ARNOLDMBROCKMAN!!
WELCOME TO THE CLOUDS!
Thank You Jane

Thanks for the vibes for Callie. I've been sitting with her for awhile and then leaving her alone and back and forth with the hopes she'll sleep. I'm going to head back up in a few minutes. Her pain is because she is so inflamed so hopefully the prednisone will do the trick tonight.
-

I suppose Exlax doesn't work on cats? Seems to me that turns everything liquid... and yes unfortunately I do know from personal experience... Or I suppose if it's already been generated...but is just stuck...Exlax wouldn't do any good....
Never mind..
-
Cilla-Thanks for the travel vibes.
Off to watch another episode of DEADWOOD.
Sleep well!

Good night, fellow Gods!

Aha! I plopped a DVD of the Movie I thought it was and it was the one I thought it was-LADY IN THE LAKE. Does anyone remember the Philip Marlowe film noir Directed by and Starring Robert Montgomery.?? The film was shot as if the leading character was the camera. Pretty interesting movie.The actress ,by the way, was Audrey Totter.
Yes, it came out on DVD several months ago. I have it and have watched it several times.
-
Will we never get to page nine?
Of course.
-
Very happy to welcome DR Arnold to Valhalla with some of the rest of us. Pull up a cloud and enjoy!
-
Back to LADY IN THE LAKE a second. I love movie mysteries, and this one is fine. Not as good a Marlowe as MURDER MY SWEET (my favorite Marlowe and one of my favorite ever noirs) or THE BIG SLEEP, but still very entertaining.
-
Yes, I remember suggesting to Mr. bk two weeks ago that he had a DVD player with him and that he could use it. So glad he enjoyed CRUSOE.
I probably won't get to my copy until tomorrow night.
-
I am still heavily involved in the BROTHERS & SISTERS box set. I am about 1/3 of the way through episode 19, the infamous "Game Night" episode.
There was another very lively commentary with the episode "The Other Walker" which featured the newest cast member Emily VanCamp as Rebecca.
All three commentaries that I've listened to have been fun, animated discussions, quite the polar opposite to the mostly dreary commentaries on the UGLY BETTY and especially the GREY'S ANATOMY sets.
-
I did watch tonight's episode of TORCHWOOD. Not quite as fun an episode as the first one, but stil enjoyable. And I'm sure those who might get a kick out of female-on-female snogging were in heaven with this episode tonight.
-
Was watching The History of Sex on The History Channel - such a fascinating show that I promptly fell asleep and dozed for about thirty minutes.
-
I'm heading off to bed now.
Good night!
-
DRs Matt H. and George - Entertainment Weekly says the "Brothers & Sisters" box set Season 1 does not contain the unaired pilot w/Buckley.
Darn. :-\

~~~Continued Vibes for Callie!!~~~

Right now, I'm watching the Creative Arts Emmy Awards (that were actually given out last week) and they are just slamming through the categories! They don't announce any of the nominees, except for the acting catagories. The presenters just walk up to the microphone with an envelope and say "The Emmy for Outstanding...whatever...goes to" and they say the winner. There have also been several multiwinners. The Best Choreography award had THREE winners! Otherwise, the winner has about 30 seconds to say what they're going to say and it's been obvious that some speeches have been edited. Elaine Strich's was bleeped...but I'm waiting to see what they actually left in of Kathy Griffin's speech. :)
-
~~~Continued Vibes for Dakota!!~~~
-
Favorite Vincent Price performance..."The Muppet Show" also. :)
-
I just checked Callie and she seems to be more comfortable. So, I think I'm going to go read for awhile and check one more time. Then I should be able to get some sleep.
-
I need to dash off, DBF is taking me out for supper at Santa Lucia and then he has a surprise... I am intrigued....
Ooo...I wonder what it could be. :D
-
Thanks all for the vibes....night

WELCOME TO THE HHW HEAVENS, DR ARNOLDMBROCKMAN!!

Tonight, I'll continue with BROTHERS & SISTERS. At 10, I may watch TORCHWOOD which the DVR is recording at 9. At 10, I'll be able to watch it and speed through the BBC-America commercials.
Our local COMCAST has BBC America and Torchwood in its On-Demand service - so we can rewatch episodes any time in the next month

New notes are up.

And if there is a national chain with the concept of Hooters, why isn't there an equivalent chain with male waiters?
THE BASKET?

Never mind...
This is probably TMI, but, a few years ago, I had eaten about 30 Velamints' Chocolate Mints within a half hour (about one every minute...they're very good) and within a couple of hours, I felt a little rumbling in my tummy. Very shortly I went to the bathroom and...whooosh!!! EVERYTHING came out (if you know what I'm sayin')!! But, it was not an uncomfortable experience...not that I specifically enjoyed it, but there was no discomfort at all. ;) So, when most products that contain either sorbitol or manitol say "Excessive consumption may produce a laxative effect," they ain't kidding!!
