And the word of the day is: POTLATCH!
Good morning, all! I am waiting to hear from Mr Kevin Spirtas. If things go well, I will see him, turn over this music for his upcoming Bocca Raton gig, catch up on things, and head off for other tasks. I'll call him after 9 am.
Ms Kuhn has a second album! If I had known,.since I believe it was recorded in 2007, I guess I forgot about it as quickly as she forgot I'd worked on her "Just In Time" album. I still like "You'll Never Get Away From Me," which is on my demo CD.
DR Jose, since you posted the comment after I'd left the site and couldn't respond last night, the answer to "would you have accepted his [apology]" is yes.
Wednesday morning greetings! I have a doctor's appointment this morning (routine check) after which Richard and I are going to dinner in Lexington, KY, with our very own DR Jose! My camera is already in my purse.
And, Dr Elmore, you sound in better spirits today. Hope things are looking a bit better.

re: last night's AMERICAN IDOL.
My 2 previous favorites (andrew garcia and casey (kara's boy) were just okay.
But my new favorite is Alex Lambert. He was so nervous and awkward last week. But this week he was the standout. And i love the tone of his voice!
I am also liking lee Dewyze.
But still there are so many who could just go now.
Wow what a great photo, DR JOHNG.Meow.
Judy Kuhn looks wonderful in that leopard coat!

Today my work project is a B-movie called BITCH SLAP. Looks like it was made as sleazy and gross as possible since the liner notes seem to revel in its over-the-top aspects.
I am honestly dreading having to sit through this (if I'm to believe the cover, there is a COMMENTARY with this). SOmetimes this job is NOT fun.
DR JohnG - I'm enjoying your photos because there's some Botswana interest stirring here in SW Ohio due to that country being selected as the feature for 2010's Middfest International.I remember that festival. Back in the 1980s, when I lived in Middletown, there was one on Japan. First time I ever tried sushi, as I recall. I really enjoyed the event.

heheheheheheh.....that was for DR ELMORE.
Getting into a frenzy at All that Chat when i should be spending time doing returns, or better than that, posting here.
I love Judy Kuhn's voice and ultimately enjoyed doing her CD. She is a bit of a pill, which is why I haven't used her on any other CDs since doing the album. I did invite her to join in on The Stephen Schwartz Album CD and she said yes and was slated to do Meadowlark. Because of my arrangement (starting the song slow and rubato, which was the first time that approach had been taken) she was concerned about the tempo of the rubato, since we were recording the band in LA. The musical director worked with her very carefully on it and took precise metronome markings for the feel and tempo of that section. We recorded it that way. She heard the track and said she could not sing to that rubato section, even though we'd done exactly what she'd rehearsed. She dropped out two days before the session. Thankfully, Susan Egan was in town, learned it, and gave an amazing performance of the song.

I honestly thought Alex Lambert was THE worst one last week, so I'm glad he's improved. If he makes it to the final 12, I'll see him then.
BK - is the writerkev gentleman someone you've dealt with before?
I'll watch Lost this evening, but questions better damn well be answered because that pontificating putz who speaks the voiceovers in his pretentious way told the world that questions would be answered.
I loved, loved, loved "Lost" last night.
But if questions were answered, the questions must have been asked by folks who haven't been paying attention.
Still....it's moving along.

Don't know if you read them or watch the series, but the "No. 1 First Ladies Detective Agency" is set there. They're are quite enjoyable.
I am trying to choke down the dryest turkey hoagie I've ever eaten...
Is Alex Lambert Adam's little brother?

Japan was 1985, one of the few Middfest's for which I did not volunteer in some capacity, because it was just a month after the birth of our DS Rob.
Middfest organizers are trying to create some interest in Botswana by encouraging the reading of the #1 Ladies' Detective series. My book group is reading the first book in the series in April and meeting at my house to discuss it and to watch a DVD called "Botswana: In the Footsteps of the No. 1 Ladies' Detective with Alexander McCall Smith." He will be speaking at Cincinnati's Joseph-Beth Booksellers on April 21 and Middfest is co-sponsoring the event.
Then I watched BITCH SLAP. Well, it wasn't sleazy, and the director, writers, and producers all had their hearts in the right place wanting to do an homage to the old Roger Corman movies like FASTER PUSSYCAT, KILL KILL.
But the movie was just TOO long so they could have several catfights, some girl-on-girl sex scenes, several beatdowns of various men, and lots of surprise revelations and discoveries.
It was all shot with an HD camera so it looked very nice even on its super low budget.

I find elmore's Facebook friend requests interesting as I have had an annoying request. ....
I was asked to befriend a person I know of, not know personally. She is causing a friend of mine a good amount of grief & obviously browsing my friend's friends & inviting them to be her friend.
I clicked on "ignore" & was then given a choice of options, "spam" or "ignore". Which should I do?

I've usually chosen "ignore," since it's not really spam. It's a real person with some connection to someone you know, not a come-on to join a separate (usually porn) website.
And the word of the day is: POTLATCH!
Headline on Roadrunner: TV star's dog kills daughter. I click to find out who the "TV star" is - then we find out "a reality TV star" - I guess they've never heard of the word oxymoron.
And NBC is showing two back-to-back LAW & ORDER: SVU episodes tonight starting at 9.
In the first, Kathy Griffin guest stars as a lesbian activist.
In the second, Christopher Meloni is reunited with his old OZ bedmate/soulmate Lee Tergesen that I'll be interested in recording.

John G., you were 300 yards away and got that photo? Wow.
Sorry if that were unclear. The guide spotted her from 300 yards away, then we drove up to about 20 away for the pictures. Many of the cats we saw -- lions and cheetahs -- were often within reach of our vehicles. It was great to see them up close.
Remember how I used to complain about all the whores wanting to be friends on MySpace? Well, they're moving to Facebook. I've turned down a couple of young ladies in the past month, and today I turned down a young man who told me he liked older men! If any DRs want to meet him, I'll send you the info!
Did everyone hear about the cruise ship in the Mediterranean that was struck by three huge waves? Two people dead and six injured. It was supposedly off of Barcelona, so it was in the same area that I was cruising. It was also about the same size ship as the Insignia.
We were told at work today that the hiring freeze may be in effect until June of 2011. We are already down to three employees, instead of five; and after July 30, we will be down to two employees, and I will be visiting the Francis Farmer suite at Western State Hospital.

I did see that. When we went to Alaska we hit hurricane like winds. There were people posted at the doors to keep us from going outside. At first I thought people were on deck when the waves hit, how scary they were inside. At least I think they were inside.

Yes they were apparently inside. Several of the front windshiels were shattered.

Beautiful photo John G. Most of my life I had a dream vacation of an African safari. I somehow think that won't happen now. I don't think I could handle bouncing around in a jeep.I was traveling with an 84-year-old friend and she was joined by an 80-year-old friend of hers. They survived the jeeps nicely, but you do need stamina.
Wow, Jane you thanked me before I sent you vibes. Scary!

Faster Pussycat, Kill, Kill is a favorite of mine, and I do love Mr. Corman, but Pussycat is a Russ Meyer film.

Seems once you click "ignore" on FB that is it. You can't go back & choose the reason later. I didn't realize it had removed the name. I lost my opportunity. ;D
Now that I rearranged my guest room, you can lay in bed and look up at the stars. I'm thinking of moving in there
I wonder if Mary thinks Drunk Duane has been ignoring her
Be careful of Dodges. Perhaps they will do better in a slightly warmer climate but they are miserable to own here in the winter
Well, Vixmon, I read her the spoilers I saw on the internet about the sequel to Phantom of the Opera, so she decided to write the third installment of the story. It was very complicated.
DR Ginny - It was great getting see you and Richard earlier. And I look forward to seeing you again tomorrow.
*The woman at the chocolate shop will probably give you this information, but just in case she doesn't - The have three different types of Bourbon Chocolates. From weakest to strongest, they are: the standard Bourbon Chocolates (cream filling), Chocolate-Covered Bourbon Cherries (the cherries have been soaked in bourbon for 11-13 months), and the Bourbon Truffles. ;)

DR JoseSPiano: LOVED the quote about "the key of Bea Arthur". I'll bet Bea was roaring over that one from wherever she is right now.

I hope that means you have a skylight!
I know. She had great stories. Not much happens these days to tell.
