Good morning, all! Another day with the McGlinnventory, followed by a visit with Mr Kevin Spirtas concerning a benefit next month in Bocca Raton. I think this is the third year I've had work derived from this event: Patrick Cassidy, Liz Callaway, and Mr Spirtas have all been invovled at one or more times.
Yesterday I got a call from Equity Fights AIDS about doing a chart pro bono for their Feb 22 event, Broadway Backwards, in which men perform numbers written for ladies and vice versa. I'll go to Thursday's rehearsal and and see what they have to give me. Tomorrow, I tackle the Manhattan School of Music library as well as the NYPL again, looking for for recording material.

Last night DR Jane asked about how my peanut buttercup cheesecake turned out.
I think it turned out pretty much how it was supposed to. Although it wasn't exactly what i was expecting. I thought since there was a layer of chocolate mixed with cream cheese that the actual cheesecake part would seem more chocolately. But it wasn't.
And there was only one layer of peanut butter at the bottom. And the reese peanut buttercups on top. so i was expecting it to be more peanut buttery.
It did taste good. Although i think i prefer my cheesecakes to be more like cheesepie (sort of soft instead of the typical pretty hard cheesecake). But it was a pretty good first effort!
-
Good morning!
The rain hadn't started when I took my walk this morning (thankfully), but it's drizzling now and supposed to rain all the rest of the morning and afternoon. I'll be inside, so it won't matter, but we're already an inch and a half ahead of normal rainfall for the month, and we're not even 10 days into the month yet.

DR George,
I still like the capers on CHUCK, too, which is why I'm still watching (though there was too much lovey-dovey stuff to suit me last night). Still, as long as the capers take up more than half the episode, I'll continue to watch and just speed through the parts that irritate/bore me.

RE: CHUCK, I thought maybe DR MattH would like it more last night (since there was not really any BuyMore stuff except for a few brief bits with morgan and chuck's sis).
I guess they are sort of stuck. If they don't show the BuyMore then they would have to get rid of half the cast. I do really like Chuck's sis and her hubby. I liked the weeks when they showed them more. I liked last night's show!
-
Today's work project is REVANCHE, another Criterion DVD IU've never seen before. It's two hours, so a great portion of time this afternoon will be given over to it. There is a separate disc of bonus material which will probably be 1-2 hours of stuff as well.
-
And I think this week's HUMAN TARGET might have been its best episode. I think when there is a good female co-star it helps!
-

I also like the capers. But i like the lovey dovey stuff too. I'm mixed on the BuyMore stuff. Sometimes parts of it can be fun.
-
Getting rid of half a cast of dunderheads and silly folks wouldn't harm the show at all, and would save the producers money. I also like Captain Awesome who, when he was with Chuck on some missions, were highlights of the season. I like the sister when she's not snooping around Chuck's business. She's a doctor for goodness sake! She has a career and a husband. That should keep her plenty busy. Of course, to have her in the cast, they have to give her something to do, so I understand why they're doing this. I'm just not interested.
-
I'm curious what Ellen will do tonight on AMERICAN IDOL, since Hollywood week is starting and this will be her first show.

re: CHUCK
Yah i also am not crazy about chuck's sis with morgan. Although that said i thought the commercials with them and captain awesome were hysterical.

Bah! It's all place-holding stuff because we know CHuck and Sarah are meant to be together. It's just too obvious they have to put obstacles in their path to keep them apart until they can finally clear all other contenders away and be together.

DR MattH have you heard anything about tonight's new FOX show PAST LIVES?

I'm curious what Ellen will do tonight on AMERICAN IDOL, since Hollywood week is starting and this will be her first show.

I'm looking forward to this. I know someone who has made a (very small) investment in the show and I also know someone, peripherally, on the tech side of the show. I think Miss Harper looks great as Tallulah.
Miss Harper was also in the chorus of Wildcat with Miss Ball.
-
DR MattH have you heard anything about tonight's new FOX show PAST LIVES?
No, I really haven't been reading up on it since I knew I wouldn't be watching. It's a sneak-peak at the show tonight, isn't it? (Like Fox did with GLEE last spring). This isn't its normal time period, is it? Glee returns in April to this slot on Tuesday.

I think that there is a sneak peak tonight with a new episode on thursday. I"m not sure but maybe thursday at 9pm is the regular time slot.
I haven't heard anything about this show and was wondering if it would interest me.

I really really hope that she doesn't suck. I"m guessing that she will be okay for hollywood week. I'm more scared for when the show starts and she really has to judge and speak her opinion.
I am anxious for tonight's show too since Hollywood week is usally my favorite part of the show.
Do you know if hollywood week is just today and tomorrow. Or does it go to next week too?
-
And a new episode of LOST at 9pm! I"m wondering what they are showing at 8pm. It looks like the last hour of last week's premiere. I guess with pop-ups.

I'm not sure, but I believe it goes on into next week. This week's TV GUIDE says nothing about Wednesday's show naming the 24 semi-finalists. I don't have next week's TV GUIDE yet.

Before I forget, yesterday DR Vixmom asked about the novel THE HELP. All I can say is READ IT! It's brilliant. If you can't read it, get the audiobook, which is one of the best book to disc presentations I have ever encounter.
At Borders, I have been lax in recommending our "make title" (THE LOST CITY OF Z - which I read LAST year) and have been pushing THE HELP. I have been successfully selling THE HELP in the store even though one can buy it at the online store for 45% off. . .
-
MEANWHILE, yesterday morning, we once again awoke to no phone, no internet and no television. . .
Last evening we were without power. We did have telephone service because we still have two land lines.
-
This morning I cleared all of our icy patches. Not that it's going to make much difference as we're supposed to have another 8 to 10 inches of snow by this time tomorrow morning. . .

Re THE HELP - I have not read it yet, but everyone I know who has read it has raved about it.

Nope--it's a multi-character play about Bankhead being in a recording studio to loop her lines for DIE, DIE, MY DARLING. Bankhead arrives in a certain state and hilarity ensues. Though I'm hearing conflicting reports about the play, Valerie is getting nothing but raves...

A lawyer on television just said that if I or a loved one died while taking Yaz, I should call him. Maybe he's working in my area.

Thanks for all the Travel Vibes. There was a little "scare" when I got to Charlotte - my connecting flight back to LGA was delayed by 15 minutes, and then they changed gates and the plane too. There were also some passengers* on the flight who had been "shuffled" from some later flights, since those later flights to LGA were already being cancelled. It wasn't a sold out planed, but it was full. However, I did end up with an empty seat next to me. -That's always nice.
*It turned out that one of those other passengers was a former college classmate/fellow musician/pianist. We had a nice mini-reunion in the terminal. -Because he had been bumped to that flight, he was upgraded to First Class. Hmmm, I knew I should have booked a later flight. ;)

Welcome home, Jose.
Thank You, Laura.

Hello, caught up... nothing to add :(

I guess the adage: Work begets work - was in action while I was in Memphis. I managed to pick up a full day of playing for another company this Friday here in NYC, and I also got booked to play a couple of days of auditions for a new show (also here in NYC) next week. And I was also asked about my interest and availability in another quite nice project. Details to follow once the ink has dried.

I watched last night's CASTLE while I cooked and ate lunch. Entertaining episode though I had the "mystery girl's" identity nailed very early and also picked the correct murderer. Still, fun show.
-
Then I watched REVANCHE. It's a German film, a mood piece about revenge and the healing power of nature. Unusual, maybe 15 minutes too long, but the director obviously takes his time with very methodical set-ups, almost no camera movement (a plus), and quiet performances. The leading actor has some of the quiet intensity of Viggo Mortensen but not quite as charismatic.
-
There are four bonus features, and I got through three of them: trailer, an interview with the director, and a making of documentary where we see the actors being staged in the scenes and then rehearsing before shooting.
The director's first student film, a 45-minute short, is the remaining bonus I haven't gotten to yet. I'll do it when I go back down.
-
I also got on Blu-ray a surprise UPS delivery: STARGATE UNIVERSE - SGU 1.0. The first ten episodes of the series. I just got the go-ahead from the boss saying it was mine to do (someone else gets first dibs on Fox/MGM TV shows).
So that will be my work project for tomorrow and possibly Thursday depending on how long it takes to do. There are commentaries with all the episodes and several bonus features, too.

Page Five Dance!!!

I hope after I finish the work project tonight that I can get the soaps skimmed and last night's DAMAGES watched. Didn't have time to do it before lunch.

Well just to be contrary I will tell you that Bebe was always very kind to my sister-in-law, who was Production Manager on "Cheers" for most of its run.
Why, because she her brother-in-law is a lesbian?
-
Is the movie WAIT TILL THE SUN SHINES, NELLIE available on video or DVD?
I don't think it is. At least, not legally.

DR Jane, it didn't take much time at all to dig my car out - my neighbor, pictured, and I were armed with brooms and shovels, not to mention the brushes and scrapers in the car itself.
You had help & extra equipment, lucky you. I know last time the snow plows dumped an extra ton of snow on his car & expect that happened again.

Jennifer I don’t think of cheese cake as hard. As I mentioned mine is so soft it has to set for 3 days before it can be served.
I don't think i explained it right. IT wasn't hard. It was like how you get a regular NY cheesecake. Firm.
My mom used to make cheesecake pies. Where i don't think you bake the cream cheese part. And it is basically whipped. I love that texture!
Yup, that is different. :)
-
I don't know anything about flickering monitors. Sorry.
Ditto.

The contrary comments are nice to read.

Boy, am I surprised! The office has decided to close tomorrow. It hasn't even started snowing but they've decided to close. I just got a call at home from Human Resources. They think they will be open on Thursday but tomorrow is a freed day! I wonder if the Cleveland and DC offices have been closed anyway, especially the DC office.
Part of me now hopes the storm is a dud just to have a free day in New York.
Speaking of free days, it looks like I may be getting ten additional free days in the next year - All without pay!
Good luck it doesn't happen, unless you want it to.
-
I'm also reading conflicting reports about THE ADDAMS FAMILY. What's the real deal on that?
I hear that Nathan Lane and Beb Neuwirth hate each other and are not speaking offstage. According to rumor, Ms Bebe's always been a total pain in the ass. A friend of mine once was her dresser and Bebe treated her like garbage.
She does seem like an inspired choice for Morticia.
Absolutely, if her behavior with the late, great Maestro Erich Kunzel and the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra is any indication.
Do tell!

Believe me, I don't want it to happen, but this year it looks like the Legislature is going to pass it for all state employees.

I don't believe I have ever seen "Nellie". I have it set to autorecord if it is ever on tv.

I mentioned all the comments regarding "The Help" at my book discussion group. A couple of people had heard it is supposed to be wonderful. Another member just purchased it for a great price on Amazon. We have a paperback only rule, however, since it is such a great deal at Amazon, a third person went ahead & chose the book for the April gathering at her house.
-
Everything is ready for our announcement. Then I did the editing road map for our next release, so that's done, and then I proofed about twenty pages. I must say, I'm rather enjoying reading it, now that I'm divorced from the actual writing of it. I'm finding lots of little typos and extra words I don't need, but it's all minor stuff. And I realized I hadn't moved two paragraphs to their correct time line, so I've noted where they are and will move them when I find the spot.

Reading My Life.....that is a great song title.

Season Two of The Patty Duke Show was released today. But still no word on Season Two of The Lucy Show.

DR TCB click control panel, then hardware, then mouse. go to the tab Pointer Options and make sure Display Pointer Trails is disabled.
It might also be too many programs running at once or low memory - that's my only guess.

My Classic Images subscription will start with the March issue, so I will miss DR MBARNUM's interview with Lisa Monteil.

White Out conditions in my neighborhood.

I wonder how DR derBRUCER's doctor appt. went today?

If it snows in NYC, I have some lovely tax returns t take my mind off the weather.

It's so odd that all these photos of Valerie Harper as Lucy are on HHW. :)
I just put up a goofy "Lucy & Viv Mame parody," about the rumored clause in Viv's contract that she would try to look frumpy compared to Lucy.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VOxOMz61LsM
The last note especially is a tribute to Lucy in MAME.
-
LOL DR FJL.
-
And if I remember correctly - these freed days cannot be taken the day before or after a holiday, because you must be in "pay status" on those days to get the paid holiday.
-
Uh oh.....no TCB - I hope I didn't break his computing apparatus.
-
Very funny Fred!
-
I'm lucky that my free day tomorrow is actually paid (not to make me sound special), considering all the tsuris the office has been through the past 8 months.
-
Ben and Jrand - thanks for watching

Jrand - nice eyelashes story. Thanks!

Thank you for the suggestion, Jrand. It didn't help, but it was worth a shot. I may just have to invest in that charcoal.com.

A LASH AND A LACK - my new biography about Lucille Ball
-
I don't believe I have ever seen "Nellie". I have it set to autorecord if it is ever on tv.
It is a really wonderful nostalgic movie. David Wayne is wonderful, and I think Jean Peters is Nellie.
-
I watched a movie today that I have not seen since I was probably 10 years old....it is much funnier now....they must have reshot some scenes last week before TCM showed it today.
Regina: It makes a girl feel funny. One day she has a man that weighs 211 pounds and the next day all she's got is a shot put medal.
LOL
-
And if I remember correctly - these freed days cannot be taken the day before or after a holiday, because you must be in "pay status" on those days to get the paid holiday.
Actually one of the proposals would link as many of the furlough days, as possible, to existing three day weekends.
-
Sorry, DR TCB....maybe someone smarter can give another suggestion.....have you cleared your cache and checked to make sure the Mouse Connection to your computer is pushed in all the way?
-
A LASH AND A LACK - my new biography about Lucille Ball
LOL.....I like that title. I know that Lucy was ready to fire Viv on the first day they met, because Viv came in all dolled up and pretty...but Desi had seen her in a plain jane role in VOICE OF THE TURTLE and knew she was perfect for the part.

It is strange to think of a lot of you as having heavy snow conditions (whiteout even); since the only flakes I have seen this year are on my head... and shoulders.

Greetings, Kritzerfans. New kid on the block here, so go easy on me. ;)
Thanks, Bruce, for the forum invite, not to mention your kindness and hospitality on Saturday. We had a blast at Musso and Frank. I can't wait to get back up to LA and indulge in some more of that heavenly gravy. Come to think of it, I should've requested a gallon to go! ;D

Hi Laura. I only just recently learned of its existence, so I can't even claim prior-lurker status. Bruce told me you were a great bunch of people here, so I'm happy to be aboard.
Thanks for the welcome!
-
In addition to the later photos that DR GEORGE has posted, here is a photo of Vivian during the late 1930's when she was appearing regularly in stock and on Broadway. This is the way she always pictured herself, so you can imagine her distress at becoming famous as "Ethel Mertz."
-
LOL DR JANE....funny photo....who is examining whom?
-
Welcome to DR JOSH MITCHELL. Do you like old movies?
I do, indeed, but I've got a lot of catching up to do! The last "old" movie I watched was PICKUP ON SOUTH STREET, a couple of months ago. Loved it, and Harline's score sizzles.

It is on TCM tomorrow. I just set it to record. I'm pretty sure this will be the first time watching for me.

Welcome New DR Josh Mitchell!
Do you have any pets?
Thanks td! We've got three cats (Grady, Simon, and Zoe) and a lizard named Boo ('cause she's so easily frightened).
-
Well, I'm outta here. My mom said that a store has poster frames on sale for $10 each. I want to get a few and start hanging up some of the posters that I have...including the new Finian's Rainbow show poster that I got!
Until later!

Welcome to our new dear reader Josh! Glad to have you with us (a 1954 A STAR IS BORN reference).

It was a beautiful sunny day here today. People were laughing at the idea that someone else was getting buried in snow and we weren't. I know it's bad, but it's really lightened our spirits around here

And again, Welcome, Josh Mitchell!
Thanks George!

From BK's notes
I’m very happy – it’s an actor who I worked with long ago when he was fourteen. He’d just come off doing the musical Big on Broadway, playing young Josh. I had him do a duet with a young lady I used to work with and he did a great job.
The song was At The Same Time from Freaky Friday.
-
I began my evening of viewing with FOREIGN LAND, the student film that Götz Spielmann won his first award for as a director. A simple story of a kid and a farmhand working on a mountainside farm. Didn't have an ending, sort of like he ran out of film. Still that finished my work on this Criterion disc.

We are in Ashland, Oregon just over the California border. The Mexican food isn't very good, at least not when one grew up in L.A.

Welcome new dear reader Josh. Josh and his lovelier than lovely wife Holly were who I lunched with at Musso and Frank last Saturday.
-
Boy, am I surprised! The office has decided to close tomorrow. It hasn't even started snowing but they've decided to close. I just got a call at home from Human Resources. They think they will be open on Thursday but tomorrow is a freed day! I wonder if the Cleveland and DC offices have been closed anyway, especially the DC office.
Part of me now hopes the storm is a dud just to have a free day in New York.
Speaking of free days, it looks like I may be getting ten additional free days in the next year - All without pay!
I have been enjoying these unpaid free days since July...one each month >:(
They've been doing them in Iowa too.
-
Next, I watched THE LIST OF ADRIAN MESSENGER. I've always enjoyed the movie even though it isn't much of a mystery since Kirk Douglas' face simply defies elaborate make-up. And although that is Burt Lancaster taking off the make-up in the end, that was NOT him in the actual film. Looks like a different actor entirely.
Also, Paul Frees got a HUGE workout in this movie dubbing voices for some of the stars and the French voices for some of the lines for both French actors in the movie. His voice is just unmistakable.
-
Thanks Michael S.
-
White Out conditions in my neighborhood.
Wow, it would take a lot of white out to paint a neighborhood
-
Guess who:
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v130/WandaDuck/Tallulah_sunglasses_022_ret.jpg)
I'm looking forward to this. I know someone who has made a (very small) investment in the show and I also know someone, peripherally, on the tech side of the show. I think Miss Harper looks great as Tallulah.
Miss Harper was also in the chorus of Wildcat with Miss Ball.
Funny, I thought that was Miss Ball!
Or Debra Messing!

Welcome, Josh Mitchell.

Is the movie WAIT TILL THE SUN SHINES, NELLIE available on video or DVD?
I don't think it is. At least, not legally.
Darn! I love that movie.
Try ebay. Maybe somebody is offering it.
No such luck.
I don't know these people, but...

As DR Druxy mentioned the other day, the transfer for ADRIAN MESSENGER is a bit soft, but it's anamorphic and upconverts pretty well, so I'm more than satisfied with it.
-
Thanks for watching, George and TCB, and thanks for trying, Jane!

Welcome DR Josh Mitchell!! We are a very nice group here. It's a welcome change from other forums on the internet
-
Next I skimmed through today's ONE LIFE TO LIVE. Yep, nice to see the fellas doing their thing, but I hope they get off that mountain fairly soon. All that fake snow is getting distracting. Yesterday a piece landed in an actor's mouth while he was talking, and he had to spit it out.
-
I saw BIG eight times on Broadway.
-
Just felt like sharing that info.
-
Then I skimmed through today's AS THE WORLD TURNS. Luke was on (but not the others), so it was a fairly mundane episode. Previews seem to promise something of more interest tomorrow.
-
Welcome New DR Josh Mitchell!
Do you have any pets?
Thanks td! We've got three cats (Grady, Simon, and Zoe) and a lizard named Boo ('cause she's so easily frightened).
Ohh, I have a cat named Boo! I have a cat named Callie too. I refer to them as the girls
-
Time to go. First I want to share my exciting news, I hiked today WITHOUT my sling!!! :D :D
The slip in the mud was a bit scary & I screamed a little going down as my right arm went behind me to brace the fall. I didn't have time to think. Fortunately my butt hit the step before too much pressure went on my shoulder. I suffer far worse during my exercises. I scared poor Keith.
Josh, short exclamation of the above. I was knocked down & broke my shoulder in 4 places. The doctor repaired two of the breaks & replaced the ball of my shoulder. It has been a difficult 11 weeks.
-
At our home we call them "Cilla and Boo, and Callie too"
-
Afterwards, I watched AMERICAN IDOL, the first Hollywood round episode. There were a few good singers (we don't get to hear most of them, of course), and tomorrow's show should have a bit more interest if they focus on the singing and not on all the bickering that happens when they team up. Of course, we KNOW they'll focus on the problems and egos and very little on the singing.
I have to say that even though I heard some good singers tonight, there wasn't anyone that jumped out as a potential star (yet). Still, hard to know anything until they actually get to sing an entire song all the way through.

-
At our home we call them "Cilla and Boo, and Callie too"
LOL, in my house it's Callie and Boo and Mommy too
-
And then I watched tonight's LOST.
One has to feel very sorry for Sawyer. He's lost just about everything and seems kind of desperate now. Heaven knows what he'll be capable of.
That was one SCARY image to end the show!
-
I'm glad you were able to hike without your sling -- so sorry you fell!
-
Stability vibes to DR Jane
-
FJL, I live in a neighborhood of corgis, there have to be 3 or 4 that walk their humans past my house regularly. It always reminds me of you and Skip and da boyz
-
I saw BIG on tour. The show had been revised for the tour. Some different songs.
There is an interesting book. A backstage look at the making. Interesting side info includes all the songs that were written and dropped before the show opened on Broadway
-
I got sick and tired of Norton screwing up my computer and slowing it down, so my computer guy suggested Windows Security Essentials (I think that's what it's called - it was a free download antivirus and firewall). So I uninstalled Norton and man it's running a lot smoother

Time to go read a trial transcript
-
Tomorrow I'll start work on STARGATE UNIVERSE 1.0 on Blu-ray. I saw the original film, of course, but I've never seen any of the STARGATE television shows, so I hope that doesn't put me at any kind of disadvantage.
-
Now, I need to close up shop in my office and head downstairs and go to bed.
Good night!
-
Not only is it not Burt Lancaster in Adrian Messenger, it's also not Frank Sinatra (obviously it's Sinatra removing the makeup at the end) - now, I happen to know who played "Sinatra" in the film proper and I think I spilled the beans right here - anyone know?
-
I guess I'll watch Lost live this evening.
-
Cilla - LOL! On the occasions when i walk Dylan, he moves so fast with excitement that he does seem to be walking me.
-
Yikes, DR Jane! Glad the slip wasn't disastrous - hope Keith recovers from the shock!
-
Since All that Chat is restricting video links to one's own videos these days, may I do a Sinatra double feature air-travel dance on page 10:
The Sinatra double-feature parody
Part 1 - "Fly Me In The Nude" - going though the full-body scanners at Newark Airport (I think Part 1's been linked here before)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gn3AcCmPL00
Part 2- the relatively un-P.C. "Flying with this Loon" - after getting through security in part 1, "Sinatra" in part 2 decks a suspicious character on the plane

Didn't Jan Merlin do all the roles...except Mitchum's?
-
Nope. Sinatra was done by a well-known character actor.
-
Don't forget - new Kritzerland title announced here tonight at midnight.
-
Cilla - LOL! On the occasions when i walk Dylan, he moves so fast with excitement that he does seem to be walking me.
Seriously, who is out in front pulling a human around the block - the dog, of course.
-
Nope. Sinatra was done by a well-known character actor.
And, that character actor's name was...?
-
Sinatra = Dave Willock/Paul Frees
;D

Great family photos, DR Josh! The humans aren't so bad, either.
-
Great cat photos, DR Josh -- and family, too.
DR Elmore, why did you have to mention Carmen Alvarez? Will have to dig up all those Ben Bagley CDs she was on. On Cole Porter Vol. II, she sings "Fish" in a way that causes you to laugh and melt at the same time.
And, BK, great call: It was a baffling day, indeed.

And Dave Willock was, of course, the daddy of muse Margaret.

Welcome eight GUESTS.

And then I watched tonight's LOST.
One has to feel very sorry for Sawyer. He's lost just about everything and seems kind of desperate now. Heaven knows what he'll be capable of.
That was one SCARY image to end the show!
I must have seen a different episode :) I found it all a bore and am already tired of the conceit of the first two episodes. Sorry, just don't see what was scary and/or surprising about the last shot - for me, it was obvious that would happen. And I don't even watch a lot of these shows on TV. I also watched a bit of something called The Forgotten, which followed Lost. What a piece of tripe - are all shows that badly written?

My Classic Images subscription will start with the March issue, so I will miss DR MBARNUM's interview with Lisa Monteil.
Call or e-mail them and ask them to start with the Lisa Montell issue, Jack.

I've got this cute photo I fear will put us in widescreen. I'll just share the image location if you are interested. Photo buffs should appreciate it.

Welcome to new DR Josh Mitchell. I think you will like it here!
Them's some beautiful cats!

Today was the last day of my four day weekend. Sigh.
I ended my day with the finishing of the transcribing of my Jewell Lain interview and then watching an old Lippert B movie called ARSON, INC. starring Robert Lowery, Anne Gwynne, and Marcia Mae Jones. The last two ladies I am happy to say I have met. Both were very sweet (they have since passed on).

Yesterday, I wrote:
Does anyone here use http://castalbumcollector.com ? You can make a profile and create lists of all the musical theater recordings/DVDs you own and you can even make a wishlist. I've created a wishlist of the CDs that I'm certain were among what was stolen from my garage last summer (my screenname is georged555) and when I've replaced them, I mark them as owned. Anyway, for the last couple of days, I can't get to my wishlist! It shows the number of titles in my list and if I search a specific title, I can see that it's in my wishlist, and I can even move titles to and from my wishlist, but I can't get to the whole thing. Does anyone else have this problem...if anyone else uses http://castalbumcollector.com/
It's back! I can get to my wishlist!

...and to anyone else's wishlist.

Just had to share. :)

Tonight, I watched "Lost" and "Past Life." "Past Life" was very similar in style to "The Forgotten." Christian Slater in "The Forgotten" is a former cop whose daughter has been missing and can't be found. Nicholas Bishop in "Past Life" is a former cop whose wife died a year ago (as of the pilot episode). They both are doing what they're doing because of their situations. Too, too similar.
Otherwise, I thought that it was not bad, but I don't know how long a show with this kind of premise can last. :-\

And now, since we're so close...
