George congratulations on your new plateau!
And the word of the day is: COSSET!
I'm sure somebody will correct me if I'm wrong on this, but:
Wasn't the young leading man of Zabriskie Point later convicted of armed robbery and, subsequently, murdered in prison?

Yes, Druxy, I believe you're correct about Mark Heilpern ( I think that was his name) who starred in Zabriskie Point. But even that-after-the-fact tragedy still cannot make the travesty of the movie go down any better. I remember sitting in the theatre watching this in disbelief at how pointless, pretentious, and mind-numbingly stupid the movie was. And the two main actors couldn't act. It made the fifty worst films of all time book. If BK had told me he was going to watch it, I'd have tried hard to dissuade. Even Blu-ray can't help that movie. It's two hours of my life I'd like back.

Have any other Facebook users noticed how s-l-o-w that site has been over the past few days?

If I have had an especially romantic evening, I have forgotten all about it.

My computer has been running slow the past week so I just thought it was my computer.

I have noticed on the original BC CD and on this one, The Quest is shorter than the version that Brian Stokes Mitchell did on the revival cast album. The choral book part I have now has the shorter version....but can there be TOO much Quest? I am seriously considering doing it as it was done in the revival. hMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMm

Well... Stokes wanted a key change. For better or worse. So...
I didn't mind it when I saw the show, but it did sort of pull me out of the show for a bit. It became more of a vocal showcase than a "quest".
I have had NO romance in my life - I am a Republican.I've had LOTS of romance in my life - And everyone knows about me and der Brucer.
So now we own GM.....
Fascinating about why people aren't seeing Up, whereas lots of people here were first in line for other Pixar films. It was the same with Wall*E. I'm anxious for reports. Also more fascinating that no one here seems to have ever had a romantic evening. You know, special person, special meal, dancing - you've seen movies, I'm sure, so I'm equally sure you know exactly what I'm talking about.
I am planning on seeing UP, but 3 year old Benny and 7 year old Taylor have yet to clear their weekend schedule.While UP is rated PG, I'm certain you can watch it without your chaperones and not suffer any emotional trauma.
Message boards say that SOME Blu Ray players takes 5 minutes to load a disk....and does the software on players have to be updated regularly in order to play the latest disks?
We don't go out to see movies in theatres any more. The last few attempts were ruined by rude, inconsiderate, obnoxious members of the public at large. So we simply wait and view films we want to see at home....
DR George,
I got your PUSHING DAISIES recorded onto a DVD-R, and unless there are complications, I'll try to get it to the post office this afternoon.
On TV Tonight!™
BRAVO - MY LIFE ON THE D-LIST special (a retrospective of the show's run)

Der B and I are heading out for a bit. Have fun, everyone.
No, DR CP - Gary Cooper in DESIRE is only available on VHS or a Region Two DVD at the present. I was most disappointed that it was not included in the Gary Cooper Box Set from a few years ago, or even the Marlene Dietrich BOX!
Something to look forward to.
I keep looking at the clearance SAMSUNG Blu RAY player for $198.....I may go tomorrow and get it if it is still there.....on line specs say that it will play DVD-R, but I am afraid......
I am not interested in PIXAR films - the stories are all the same.....sometimes it's bugs, sometimes it's toys, sometimes it's penguins, sometimes it's robots.....but it's the same damn movie over and over.
Message boards say that SOME Blu Ray players takes 5 minutes to load a disk....and does the software on players have to be updated regularly in order to play the latest disks?
Yes, and yes. I have had three BD players thus far, and by far the best is the PS3. Virtually instantaneous loads, and automatic firmware updates (if you have Wi-Fi).
Does anyone know when My Life on The D list starts again (so i can try to figure out when it will air here)?
I love this show!
DR George,
I did get your DVD-R put in the mail this afternoon, so look for it later this week.
And congratulations to DR TCB on his huge millstone! :D
CONGRATULATIONS TCB on Your MILLSTONE
Der B and I have had LOTS of romantic evenings. I just don't care to discuss them, thank-you.
I've napped, made tuna salad, made a date for Wednesday breakfast with Susanna Moross Tarjan, been to the pharmacy and bank, and I have three string parts to proof. When I hand in the invoice for this score, I'm taking a week off to catch up on my Netflix discs.
The cool-gel scarf I bought today that is supposed to keep your neck cool for four hours when you are outside doesn't work.

His name was Mark Frechette.
The girl's name was Daria Halprin (or something like that).

Quite right. There's part of the problem. Not only couldn't they act; no one could remember their names.

Der B and I have had LOTS of romantic evenings. I just don't care to discuss them, thank-you.With whom?
Back from dinner out. The DH had a 2 pound lobster. And onion rings. And a hot fudge brownie sundae.
I had soup and a salad.

Did you refrigerate it first?

I don't believe they ever determined the exact cause of the death of Mark Frechette. Some of his friends and family called it murder, and others thought it might have been suicide. Anyway, he was found dead in the gym at the prison with a 150 lb. barbell crushing his windpipe.
It isn't what took place, really, it was the "together" that held the romance.
Also more fascinating that no one here seems to have ever had a romantic evening. You know, special person, special meal, dancing - you've seen movies, I'm sure, so I'm equally sure you know exactly what I'm talking about.
DR George, I'm going to assume that I can erase the Pushing Daisies finale from my DVR once I've watched it.
Thanks for the back-up plan!
Is DR JoseSPiano perhaps taking Prince Harry on a foodie walking tour in NYC tonight?
Could that be considered a romantic evening?
From the "I'll have what she's having" (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/picturegalleries/picturesoftheday/5421293/Pictures-of-the-day-1-June-2009.html) Department.

I enjoyed Expialidocious, but I hope I never have to listen to ANNA again. It gave me a headache.
DR MBarnum and others - If you get the Travel Channel, you may want to check out Anthony Bourdain's "No Reservations" program tonight (or one of the rebroadcasts). Tonight's episode covers a visit to Mumbai.

Thanks Jose, I have set my DVR.
Congrats to Cillaliz on her new car!
Congrats to Vixmom on her patience and perseverence and being able to be back at work!
Thank you DR George for GLEE.
