Oh, and speaking of Patti, here's her mother's chicken soup recipe:
Get yourself one big, sweet juicy bird. Wash her inside and out including the giblets. Fill up a big pot with cold, clean water, and put the bird and the giblets in. Let her cook, skimming off all that junk that rises to the top. While she's cooking, open up a couple of big cans of Italian peeled tomatoes. You are going to use the liquid as well. Chop up an onion, celery, carrots, and peel a lot of garlic (leave the cloves whole). When the bird is cooked through, take it out, let it cool and then pull the chicken off the bone with your hands. Use your hands to create a masterful chicken soup. Put that chicken meat back into the pot with all of your veggies and the cans of Italian peeled tomatoes (hand crush those tomatoes into the soup). Add salt and pepper and fresh Italian flat leaf parsley. Cook it up, eat it, yum, yum, yum.
You can add shell pasta or rice (cooked separately).

I've been listening to some Robert Miles tracks.
It's rather like Phillip Glass with more notes and thus more interest!

I've also been listening to some Pacific Gas & Electric tracks.
One track is used in the newest Tarantino film. (not that I shall be viewing it).

Thanks to DR MBARNUM for the Snake Dance clip yesterday.....a little short on dancers, but fun.
DR JOSE - Lafayette Jefferson is an Indiana High School, and even though that routine was GRAND CHAMPION, I wouldn't give it high marks. The singing was pretty bad, and I hate Swing Choir "choreography". That example is especially bad because it really interferes with the singing. The group would move while they were singing and then stay in position during the the times they were silent. And the soloists, particularly the guy was off key.
I really hate show choirs. And when I say anything, I get told that they teach everyone so much about performing, which may be why we get the singers and dancers we get now at auditions.
If we banned Show Choirs, it would be a small loss. As Meredith Willson said about the Jews' Harp: "Never have the efforts of so many resulted in the entertainment of so few."

The usual, human response to a New Moon (at 9:15 this morning PST) is to develop a gung-ho attitude that can't be stopped - at least for many hours or a couple of days. The problem here is that you reach another peak of excitement and stimulation as the Moon conjuncts Uranus in Pisces (11:05AM PST), but this union starts a void lunar cycle that lasts until 6:24AM PST tomorrow. Pull in the reins somewhat this afternoon and evening. It is still fine to become a computer geek and high-tech explorer, but it's better to go with the flow than starting up costly and time-consuming business ventures.

My question is of course is if they don't accept underpants from the outside, why are Tuesday and Thursday, underpants days? Are those the only days that underpants can be offered and refused?

Morning all. Sorry I was not around to respond to Dear Tom's greeting.
I will be off to Long Island after work today. I will be there until Sunday. Ant will stay a couple of extra days and then he's back Wednesday to begin a new round of auditions for possible summer work.
I'm listening to the 1997 Broadway Candide, the York Theatre Merrily and my recent transfer of Gotham.
Horses for Courses. I LOVED Wicked the book. I like the musical but the book is a complete and different article without the beefed up role for Glinda.
For later viewing I was just given some DVDs which will brighten up our viewing evenings.

The word 'prepone' is found in The New Oxford Dictionary of English, published 1998. It is listed as being Indian (from India) and is defined as: to bring forward to an earlier date or time. Example given: The publication date has been preponed from July to June

Good morning, all! I have a trek to Toyland this morning followed by a luncheon with Miss Pamela Myers of "Another Hundred People" and Mrs Tom Jones aka Janet Watson. After that, a few odds and ends about the apartment need to be taken care of.
I, too, liked the novel WICKED, but his other novels have eluded me.

OK - I may return at lunch since it's a bit longer today, but I have a feeling I'll be wandering the exhibit hall gathering all the latest catalogs from the various vendors - just how many MTI and DPS and Samuel French catalogs do I need, anyway? ;) -Also, the "swag" has gotten better over the years - pens are always good to have on hand.

Good morning. I'm up and I didn't have anything to do on this TLC job today, so they "gave me the day off", which means cancelling my session without a cancellation fee. Oh well, they've given me a lot of work, and it's rainy here so it will be a good day to stay in and work on my taxes.

Regarding the cat adoption discussion, I was really surprised that they would only adopt to people with a fenced in yard. Not only wouldn't that keep a cat in, but what if they want to have an indoor cat? The two we have that were strays never exhibit a desire to go outside. They know they have it good!
-
And as for the feline leukemia/aids---if a cat is going to be an "only cat" or could be adopted by someone who had another cat with it, why not, if they are able to be indoor only cats?
A friend in LA who adopted from a shelter told me that their rules are stricted than if you were adopting a child. I thought she was kidding, but maybe she wasn't!

OK, I'm done with my monologue; time to get some coffee!

Friday morning greetings! According to WHIO-TV, we are now in the throes of our 17th snow event this winter - the first one was Dec. 5, the day I saw DR Jason in A Christmas Carol. And this could be THE BIG ONE, with double-digit accumulations predicted. My drive into work wasn't bad, but I'm concerned about the drive home and tomorrow (a workday for me).

DR Ben is right about WICKED the Book and WICKED the Musical being different beasts entirely. However, unlike him, I enjoyed the musical book much more than the novel which is very dark and as it winds though the final chapters almost unrelentingly depressing.

Yes, I kind of like SOYLENT GREEN. I think by this time, I had realized that Charlton Heston's time had passed as an action star, and there seemed to be a sameness in everything he did around this period. (OMEGA MAN, SOYLENT GREEN, AIRPORT 1975, EARTHQUAKE).
-
And I keep waiting for Disney to send the Blu-ray of ENCHANTED. Sometimes they are weeks ahead of street date with their review copies (makes it so much easier when they give a long lead time). Other times, they're too close to street date or, as with THE ROOKIE, past street date.Wonder why they're so inconsistent?

Happy Frigga's Day! Last week I (finally)acquired a copy of ANYA; One song sung by Constance Towers(A New World?)was, acc. the liner notes, based on Rachmaninoffs 2nd symphony; So I went out and bought a copy, Andre Previn/LSO; It's very beautiful and there was Miss Tower's ballad in the adagio; En rout home tonite, will be Ruggle of Red Gap, which I already had on vinyl but ordered the new CD cause there's bonus tracks by Jane Powell, and I left my vinyl at the Booth stage door last spring as a gift for Miss Redgrave; Tonight, no DVD, but a movie in the Theeyatuh, an Eng Heist movie, THE BANK JOB, with fave Jason Statham..and yes that Julie Andrews twofer is wonderful; When her book comes out, I'll not only buy the book, I'll buy the book on CD just to listen to her lovely voice.
-
Another disc I should have put in my Friday Media Check is the Blu-ray of SUPERMAN RETURNS. I got it for CHristmas and haven't had a chance to watch it. I had the sDVD and thought it was a soft, fuzzy mess; reviews have said the Blu-ray is a much better encoding. I hope so.
The movie was only fair, I thought. Some good action scenes but way too long for the story they had to play and rather grim, not playfully comic book-like at all. SUPERMAN and BATMAN should not have the same tone.
-
My question is of course is if they don't accept underpants from the outside, why are Tuesday and Thursday, underpants days? Are those the only days that underpants can be offered and refused?
A thought: It may be that Tuesday and Thursday are the only days of the week they collect soiled clothing for the laundry...and they don't want anyone shedding old underwear for new and then sticking it under a mattress.

And I'm guessing DR Tomovoz would rather PostPone. ;)

It was great to have a more leisurely paced episode with plenty of cerebral content.
I am breathlessly anticipating Ben's revelation to John Locke about "who" his contact on the ship is. When Ben said, "You won't believe me", my mind instantly went into overload and I started thinking about "who" it truly might be...and it HAS to be someone John Locke knows. I had one person in mind almost immediately, but then the previews knocked that idea out of my head as scenes on the boat showed some rather interesting reactions from Sayid.
That entire episode with Juliet and Jack heading for the power station and Juliet encountering that "whaterveritwas" representing Ben was quite interesting. That Ben "knows" what's going on and can send "emissaries" in the form of images to people around the island is amazing. I'm also thinking he can "block" people from seeing what's there, too (the "shack" not being where John remembered it being and the little smile on Ben's face when Locke asked him where it was in an earlier episode).
I'm also thinking that Claire may start asserting herself a bit more in the encampment. She made a very good argument to John about his treatment of the "prisoner" from the boat.
I'm loving this season more and more with each episode!

Re: Gary McFarland. Back in my wasted yout', I used to invite Jehovah's Witnesses in to my house for little debates on scripture. Now I am not a doctor of philosophy or anything, but with my, shall we say, eclectic religious upbringing, coupled with my knowledge of Hebrew and at that time Classical Greek (which I was studying as part of my Masters), I was a smartypants and liked watching the JWs squirm as I pointed out various inconsistencies in scripture. All of which went out the window one day when one of them came in, saw all my music lying around and heard a McFarland LP (remember those?) playing (which he recognized), and told me he knew Gary and would introduce me if only I came to Kingdom Hall (or whatever it's called) with him. I declined. ;D
Re: Lost

Time may prove me wrong but I think it's fairly obvious that Ben's "plant" on the boat is the cast member whose name has been in the credits for several weeks now without any appearance yet. Just sayin'. ;D

Underpants day is in one county in Iowa...there is never an underpants day in the other county in Nebraska, but if you can't buy underpants there, they will give them to you when you arrive, so I guess that means in Nebraska, every day is underpants day!!

I've had quite an event-filled day! A lovely lunch with Pamela Myers and Janet Watson, which was filled with lots of dish and laughs. We met at the Key West Coffee Shop on Broadway at 94th, and Michael Feingold was sitting not far from us. When he and his luncheon companion were leaving, he stopped and I introduced them to Pam and Janet.
After lunch, more errands, including more prescription refills from my doctor. I also made an appointment for him to check me out for toxins and poisoning from all this damned pesticide.
I got a bit more bug cleaning this afternoon before I start some more work.

Do you have birds and squirrels outside, DerBrucer?

Fulfilling my worst fear, it started raining VERY hard once I got to the grocery store. No parking spaces close, so it was a walk in and out. About an hour after I got home, it stopped raining, and has remained stopped all afternoon. However, it's still dark and stormy looking and I'm sure we're in for some more rain - probably when we go out to eat tonight. (My friend Gregg is in town this weekend.)
-
Since I'm going out to eat tonight, I didn't have to fix much for lunch. Still, while I prepared that and ate, I watched last night's NEW AMSTERDAM. A better episode than the pilot, I thought, with an interesting case and even more interesting revelations about John's earlier life. Quite full of surprises.
Really am loving the show and hope it catches on once it's away from the IDOL carry-over audience.
-
Next, I watched THE ICE STORM on the soon-to-be-released Criterion 2-disc set. The film looks beautiful, and the Dolby Surround sound is the best I've ever heard the movie sound.
Of course, the film is deeply melancholy and full of pain. When it was over, I wanted to watch something silly like the Marx Bros. just to lighten the mood.
-
I didn't have the Marx Bros. at hand, so I put in the next silliest thing readily available, today's AS THE WORLD TURNS. Yes, Luke and Noah were on, planning on doing the very thing I predicted would happen with Imira.
Now, let me make some more predictions.Noah and Imira will marry, even though Noah swears it will only be platonic. Events will transpire that will cause them to become more than an "in-name-only" couple. Noah will be deeply in love with Imira when he learns from his father that they're actually half brother and sister.
-
I ended the afternoon watching the last half hour of today's LAW & ORDER rerun, one from the Carey Lowell years with a mob boss feigning insanity. Good episode.

NEW AMSTERDAM seems to be doing a better job of co-ordinating the back-flashes than did Journeyman. Also, John's willingness to have others close to him share his secret makes for more interesting plotting.
I wonder what sort of counter-programming the other networks will do.

We received a rather disturbing medical diagnosis for Miss Blue Moon, but she is on a round of treatment and we will know the prognosis in two weeks. Vibes appreciated.
~~~Successful Treatment Vibes for Miss Blue Moon!!~~~

Now this is funny!! ;D

My drive home only took me about 20 minutes longer than usual, which isn't bad considering that we're now under a BLIZZARD warning. Something tells me I won't be doing any information-waitressing tomorrow.
-
ooh, DR Jorge, you look most dashing in your new avatar (or maybe it's not that new since I've been so E and T)
No, you're right. It's brand-spankin' new. I took that myself just so that I would have a picture for the Side Show program. Did you know/read that I was cast in a local production of Side Show?? I was!
-
What happened to tomorrow's 50 degrees?
-
What is it with these slow March newsdays? Last March - one of our biggest months ever. This March - I gotta tell you.
-
outside the window at the moment!

Well, this morning I received at work the closing documents for my refinance. I signed what was marked for me to sign, went to the credit union to have the necessary documents notarized and I sent them back in the supplied pre-paid UPS overnight package!! It's almost all over!! Next week, my original 30-year loan should be paid off and my first payment for the new 15-year loan won't be until May 1! ;D
-
Wow! Those are nice pictures, Tomovoz!
-
Congratulations DR George.
-
Thanks George. The first one is through glass - right from where I am posting this!
-
What happened to tomorrow's 50 degrees?
That won't be here until the middle of next week. We have to have a BLIZZARD first - and I don't mean the Dairy Queen kind!
-
DR Tomovoz - I like what's outside your window much more than what's outside my window.
-
DR Matt H.: as bk reported, the Camelot concert cast is not yet announced, although DR JoseSPiano seems to have an inkling.
Audra is rumored for Guinevere, but that is not confirmed at this point.
I agree with George. Let Brent play Arthur. Hell, then put Sebastian LaCause in as Lancelot; and I will play Guinevere!

Blue sky and a gentle warm Autumn day here DR Ginny.

Will you love him in silence DR TCB.

BIG DOGGIE VIBES FOR SWEET MISS BLUE MOON! [/color][/b]

Blue sky and a gentle warm Autumn day here DR Ginny.
Sounds lovely!
-
My question is of course is if they don't accept underpants from the outside, why are Tuesday and Thursday, underpants days? Are those the only days that underpants can be offered and refused?
;D
I almost asked why they don't sell the required boxers at the jail & figured the fact would have been mentioned if they did. ::)

The word 'prepone' is found in The New Oxford Dictionary of English, published 1998. It is listed as being Indian (from India) and is defined as: to bring forward to an earlier date or time. Example given: The publication date has been preponed from July to June
I recently finished reading THE PROFESSOR AND THE MADMAN, a tale of murder, insanity, and the making of the Oxford English Dictionary. It was very interesting.

That is sick ;D
-
Congratulations DR George.
Thanks!
-
Well, since I took so long to sign the papers, eat lunch and the papers notarized, and I really haven't done ANYTHING while I've been at work today, I'm going to leave and just use a whole day of vaction. :) I'll use the time to go home and work on my music for Side Show. Tonight, we're running the whole show, so it'll help. Until later!
-
Our administration is coming under great pressure to close early - some HHW vibes would be appreciated.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~VIBES~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~[/color]

Better go, I have to do a post office run and then will go to Nebraska to the jail and I hope I will find out I no longer need to discuss underpants with this client ever again!!
ROTFLOL!

Thanks to DR MBARNUM for the Snake Dance clip yesterday.....a little short on dancers, but fun.
DR JOSE - Lafayette Jefferson is an Indiana High School, and even though that routine was GRAND CHAMPION, I wouldn't give it high marks. The singing was pretty bad, and I hate Swing Choir "choreography". That example is especially bad because it really interferes with the singing. The group would move while they were singing and then stay in position during the the times they were silent. And the soloists, particularly the guy was off key.
I really hate show choirs. And when I say anything, I get told that they teach everyone so much about performing, which may be why we get the singers and dancers we get now at auditions.
If we banned Show Choirs, it would be a small loss. As Meredith Willson said about the Jews' Harp: "Never have the efforts of so many resulted in the entertainment of so few."
Bravo! I can never stand to hear the song "Hi, Neighbor" because the Wilson High School Swing Choir started every single concert with that damn song.
-
I watched last night's NEW AMSTERDAM. A better episode than the pilot,
Thank goodness! Keith was about to delete the series and I said to give it another try. Maybe we will watch it tonight.
-
The usual, human response to a New Moon (at 9:15 this morning PST) is to develop a gung-ho attitude that can't be stopped - at least for many hours or a couple of days. The problem here is that you reach another peak of excitement and stimulation as the Moon conjuncts Uranus in Pisces (11:05AM PST), but this union starts a void lunar cycle that lasts until 6:24AM PST tomorrow. Pull in the reins somewhat this afternoon and evening. It is still fine to become a computer geek and high-tech explorer, but it's better to go with the flow than starting up costly and time-consuming business ventures.
Oh come Uranus is always in the middle of everything, Jrand?
-
Ginny, I'm glad to see you safely home.
Tomovoz, thank you for the view in your yard, always a delight to see.

I have not much else in the way of news for the nonce. so here's the TOD:
DVD: Stardust, Some Girls, several operas
CD: The Firebrand of FLorence, Windflowers, Guy Haines
VCR: cheap porn
Oh elmore, I am so glad that things are returning to normal!
-
Friday morning greetings! According to WHIO-TV, we are now in the throes of our 17th snow event this winter - the first one was Dec. 5, the day I saw DR Jason in A Christmas Carol. And this could be THE BIG ONE, with double-digit accumulations predicted. My drive into work wasn't bad, but I'm concerned about the drive home and tomorrow (a workday for me).
I am no longer amused by winter.
Spring is arriving here in the Pacific Northwet.
-
And I keep waiting for Disney to send the Blu-ray of ENCHANTED. Sometimes they are weeks ahead of street date with their review copies (makes it so much easier when they give a long lead time). Other times, they're too close to street date or, as with THE ROOKIE, past street date.Wonder why they're so inconsistent?
I think it just depends on how long it takes your postal clerk to repackage the evidence once he finishes with the free DVDs.
-
I got in just before the downpour began. I guess we're do for storms till tomorrow evening, so I'm happy o work on various and sundry here at home. I had a great afternoon washing down four shelves of CDs with ammonia to clean off the dust and cut down the potential mite population. Tomorrow, I think I'll do the other four. I've got a bit of FANTASTICKS work for Harvey Schmidt to move on to, and I finally received today my contracts with Rodgers & Hammerstein for my work in getting THE BRAIN FROM PLANET X ready for their theatre catalog. The biggest part of that is that I have to write out a book of the vocal parts.
I just spoke to my brother Randy and he says that Macbeth told him it was time to bury the hatchet with me. Randy's comment to me was that he wanted to ask him, where? in my head?
-
Our administration is coming under great pressure to close early - some HHW vibes would be appreciated.
Good vibes that Ginny gets to stay late!

Mega vibes to the beautiful and husky Miss Blue Moon!!!
Mike, I don't think it is a compliment to tell a lady she is husky!
-
Count me in as a fan of Maguire's novel.
McGuinn and McGuire still a-gettin higher in L.A.,
You know where that's at.
-
Next, I watched THE ICE STORM on the soon-to-be-released Criterion 2-disc set. The film looks beautiful, and the Dolby Surround sound is the best I've ever heard the movie sound.
Of course, the film is deeply melancholy and full of pain. When it was over, I wanted to watch something silly like the Marx Bros. just to lighten the mood.
ROMEO AND JULIET would be light and silly next to THE ICE STORM.
-
Thanks for the bird photos, DR Tom. Wonderful, as usual.
-
Will you love him in silence DR TCB.
Oh Hell no!
-
Randy's comment to me was that he wanted to ask him, where? in my head?
That's funny. It would be nice if you can make up. I know as long as Mrs Macbeth is in the picture it won't be easy. A semi truce would be nice, and you were generous enough not to wish the bedbugs on them. ;)
-

I went to the doctor today with what I thought was a ear infection. Turns out I have TMJ... and a cold. There's nothing wrong with my ears or my sinuses. But apparently I've been grinding my teeth on a regular basis for quite awhile. And the last few nights when I've woken up with my ear/jaw throbbing, it's been from how strongly I've been grinding and clenching my jaw. My doctor advised me to go to the dentist, to get a mouth guard so I don't cause further damage to my teeth, and most importantly- to reduce my stress level.
-

But not generous enough to leave them more than $10.00 in my will. I told Randy I'd be interested in talking to Tom if his wife were dead.
-
Well, let me just say that I resent them keeping me so busy at work that I can't post at will during the day. It's cramping my style! ;)
This state of affairs will now likely last into next week. :(
-
Just got a return done, but oyyyyy so many open questions!!!
-
Slow March - Is this the name of the less-talked-about sister in LITTLE WOMEN?
-
DR TPunk - get the mouth guard, they work wonders!

Since I am a regular customer of JG Autographs, they always send me their new catalogs. I think this is one of the hottest autographed pieces I have seen in a while. (Sorry, I don't know how to put the name in place of the web address)

I think you were far too generous ;)
-

It is just as easy to clink on the web address, cut and pasting isn't a big deal either.
-
VIBES TPunk. I have TMJ and it can be very painful.
My first mouth-guard was great. In the beginning I wore it all day & it worked wonders. I had that one for several years until a crown forced me to get a new one which didn't do much.
I really should get another one, but I don't have dental insurance and I hesitate to waste my money again.
-
Back from a really good dinner at a new place - more about it later in the notes.
-
Will we never get to page eight?
-
Lalalala
Thanks to everyone for the MISS BLUE MOON vibes.....I will keep you informed as time goes by....but her next appointment is in two weeks. She is on steroids right now.
What great photos we are seeing.
DR GINNY I am thinking that the snow will be south of me....we got lots of wind today, but not much snow so fingers crossed for the same tomorrow.
-
Good Evening!
Back from dinner with various colleagues from various theatres, colleges and theatres. We supped at one of the local branches of Stick Fingers BBQ - Memphis-style BBQ in Chattanooga. It was pretty good. And so was the beer. :)
-
I hope they don't do swing choir, DR JOSE.
DR ELMORE I hope you showed Ms Pamela Myers the lovely bar graph that DR SINGDAW posted yesterday.

As for today's auditions...
First the Good News:
Today's "Gimme, Gimme" (Thoroughly Modern Millie not Mamma Mia!) count: 0 (?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?) :)
The Bad News:
"Not For The Life Of Me" (Thoroughly Modern Millie): 4 (maybe 5, since I may blocked it out. Alas, there was one group where two girls sang it - with only one other auditionee between them. However...
The Good News:
"And They're Off" (A New Brain) was sung a few times today. -I love playing it.
The Bad News:
Two gentlemen ended up singing it back to back at the beginning of the afternoon session.
-However, they both sang it well. :)
-
I hope they don't do swing choir, DR JOSE.
Well... Um... I'm not playing the high school auditions this year, but, apparently, the "show choir syndrome" has been a continual problem for that division. Can you say, "big gesture"? ;)

STEROID VIBES FOR DD MISS BLUE MOON!

Have you seen/toured the choo-choo?
I did the Choo Choo last time I was here. And once was enough. ;)

Re: Gary McFarland. Back in my wasted yout', I used to invite Jehovah's Witnesses in to my house for little debates on scripture. Now I am not a doctor of philosophy or anything, but with my, shall we say, eclectic religious upbringing, coupled with my knowledge of Hebrew and at that time Classical Greek (which I was studying as part of my Masters), I was a smartypants and liked watching the JWs squirm as I pointed out various inconsistencies in scripture. All of which went out the window one day when one of them came in, saw all my music lying around and heard a McFarland LP (remember those?) playing (which he recognized), and told me he knew Gary and would introduce me if only I came to Kingdom Hall (or whatever it's called) with him. I declined. ;D
That reminds me of my friend in DC who lives in Dupont Circle - basically D.C.'s Gay Central - who would always invite the cute Mormon boys that would go from door-to-door in his neighborhood into his apartment to "talk" with them. My friend was/is a preacher's son, so he was always able to have fairly heated and equal debates with them. In fact, he thinks he was put on some special list, since there was a time where he was visited five times in a two month period! ;)
-
I did the Choo Choo last time I was here.
Is that a euphemism?
-
I think I will watch THE SOUP now, and then go to beddy bye.
-
Elmore, was that another half-nude photo of MBarnum?
At first I thought it was Mikey and Chooster. But his face isn't shiney enough.

Matthew Morrison is on GHOST WHISPERER tonight. It's a very funny episode in its amorality.

I agree with George. Let Brent play Arthur. Hell, then put Sebastian LaCause in as Lancelot; and I will play Guinevere!
You just want to polish his codpiece. ;)
-Although, Sebastian is currently out in San Diego doing Dancing In The Dark (a.k.a. the new stage version of "The Band Wagon").
-
Do i recall correctly from one of my D.C. trips that Dupont Circle was at times affectionately called Bouffant Circle or Dippity-Doo-pont Circle or such names?

Yes, I know.
-
And speaking of the weather...
We're expecting a fairly large number of cancellations tomorrow due to the snow "events" that are affecting the Ohio Valley right now. A lot of people are also supposed to fly out tomorrow morning, and since they're connecting through either Memphis or Cincinatti, well... We shall see.
-I just hope things are back to "normal" by the time I fly back on Sunday.
-
TCB- ;D You had me for a second.
JRand-Sweet. I hope she rests comfortably.
-
That reminds me of my friend in DC who lives in Dupont Circle - basically D.C.'s Gay Central -
I realize I tend to be oblivious to things like this, but I completely missed the fact-even after you told me. ???-LOL. I loved staying in Dupont Circle. I know a lovely straight couple who live there. If Craig moves to DC (it's looking like he will) they raved about the area to him.
Are you sure things haven't changed & the area is for anyone?;D
-
It has been so long since my injured foot and ankle hurt I thought I was cured. Today I returned to jogging, not much and it was on the soft flat trail. Now the arch of my foot really hurts. DANG!

There's a rumor the "25 years later" movie sequel to THE LAST STARFIGHTER is on track. I don't know what this would mean for Skip and my musical, but it could only potentially help us, not hurt - imdb lists the movie sequel as anticipated for a 2010 release, though.

However, Dupont is for everyone - especially with all the new condos going up there. However, the real estate prices there are some of the most expensive in the city - condos normally start around $1.2 Million(!) now.
-
Seriously, friends, we are a great group of people (even the lurkers, or most of them) at this site; so if you haven't already marked this site as a favorite,
http://www.theanimalrescuesite.com/
please do so now. It only takes about a minute each day to go through the animal rescue, the breast cancer, the hunger foundation, the rain forest, and I am forgetting one or two........ It is so easy, and it does so much good! Please!

Blake Shelton from that CLASH OF THE CHOIRS TV contest show (I think his team came in third) is the special guest on Paula Dean's show PAULA'S PARTY.
-
Paula Dean asked Blake Shelton why he named his album "PURE B.S." and he explained that those are his initials. Funny moment, but maybe you had to be there.
-
Well, tomorrow morning I have to get up at 5:30 and pretend that I'm going to work. Those of us scheduled for tomorrow were told today that we would not be notified by phone if there's a delay or closing. So, I'll go through the motions until either it's announced that we're closed or I sacrifice another vacation day.
'night!
-

I seriously doubt Craig will be able to afford a place in Dupont. I think with his dog he might prefer an area that is less crowded.

Oh, that's right! -As I was just reminded from an NBC promo - Amy Adams will be hosting "Saturday Night Live" tomorrow night. :)

I'm eating cheeesecake filling and lemonade for dinner.

Hmm... I had heard that current revival of Cat On A Hot Tin Roof was "interesting", and after reading a few of the reviews, well... -A saxophone player?!?!?

Matthew Morrison is on GHOST WHISPERER tonight. It's a very funny episode in its amorality.
He plays the highway patrolman who keeps pulling Steve Carrell over in DAN IN REAL LIFE, too. I didn't recognize him at first, but after several later scenes, I saw who it was.
-
Had a great dinner out tonight at a place I'd never been to before. Delish. I had spaghetti and meatballs, and they served a house salad that's one of the best I've had in a long time. Wonderful garlic bread, too.
-
We came back and watched the GREAT PERFORMANCES HD version of COMPANY. Gregg hadn't seen it, and I was glad to watch it again. Still find it erratic in effect. Some of it is truly wonderful, moving even. SOme of it leaves me cold and indifferent.
-
I'm going to say that the excellent vibes and xylophones are, at this time, working, and the good news could be getting closer to being great news. So, keep 'em coming. I'm hoping to have final word next week some time and let me tell you, you dear readers will be the first to know and you will all WANT to be the first to know, that much I can tell you. I suppose I can also tell you it involves a potential release for Kritzerland.
-
Then I watched Wednesday night's RENO 911! Not one of their better efforts. I'm not sure I laughed once.
-
No additional writing to do tonight, so I guess I'll just head on down for bed now.
Good night!

Wow, I can't believe it. I read that my old Gateway 200 ARC that is a real piece of you know what laptop has an easy fix. You just have to open the hard drive case, reattach the cable and tape it really well. Seems it comes loose very easily.
So, I did it and the thing works again. what do you know. I'm downloading updates right now....44 of them!
It's not recognizing a modem, but that may be ok. The wireless is working, so if I can get the internet and my email to work, I'll take it to Tucson Green Valley. I can always check my email at my parents' place on my dad's computer. He's on dial up there, so it will be slow, but it would work.
It's probably worth a try. I hate lugging my good lap top around on planes and through airports. This one weighs 2 pounds. It's great when it works.
-
Wow, I'm all alone....did I chase everyone away? Gee, I didn't even talk about underpants....
-
Just the bloody WUSSBURGERS - it's reached epidemic proportions!
-
Nobody here but us chickens.
-
Time to go to bed.
Good-news vibes to BK.

Wussburger, wussburger
Where can you be
You are not here
That we can see
-
Hey BK. I haven't been on this late in awhile. Nice to see your smiling face
-
I'm downloading updates on my old, now repaired computer
-
It's doing pretty well actually. I think I could easily take this on the road. At least I know how to fix it now which is great. I didn't lose any data at all. When I called Gateway years ago to get this thing fixed I lost all the data several times.
-
Well, I think I'm just going to let the computers update and go to bed. Night

Will we never get to page ten? Perhaps MBarnum will wax on about his ten favorite Bollywood movies.

Tonight, we had a run-through of Side Show. It actually went quite well, except at the very end when the cast comes on and sings the reprise of "Come Look at the Freaks." I will have to admit that I didn't have it memorized but then NO ONE ELSE really did either! :o So, I don't feel too bad about it...there's safety in numbers (a Boy Friend reference ;)), you know.
