Hope you pass with bloody flying colors.vampire'slab, it's off to Kroger and then home to make caramel corn to donate to a bake sale and prepare dinner for Richard and our dear niece/goddaughter Lauren. We haven't seen her since Rob and Mary Linda's wedding and we have to hear all about her December graduation plans and the internship she has lined up in Orlando, starting in January.
Take your camera, Doug!Yes, we want pix.

What's your take on it?
Three hours in the dental chair truly is HELL.

~~~DITTO!!~~~
Thanks for the vibes DR Laura and DR Ginny.So, here's hoping all heals well.
My appointment was very brief. The doctor determined that my hand injury from my fall was probably a contusion and that since the pain is lessening, there's no need for an x-ray at this time.
Speaking of a Fresh Hell:
My dental appointment was for two hours. It lasted three hours and only ONE (count it, ONE!) tooth got prepped.
I blame Jose. I do.
Had Jose not stupefied much of California upon his arrival, my dentist would not have run out of gas on her way to work, my dentist and I would not have been giggling like loons over an experience I had in her waiting room, thus lending the slightest possibility that one crown prep would have taken two hours instead of three.
Sigh. I wondered out loud if two hours was enough time when the appointment was made and was assured it should be. Ha. Ha Ha.
So...another appointment next week for the other crown prep. And then a double-coronation on December 7.
I'm going to the airport soon for a flight to Bilbao, Spain -for just a short stay.
~~~Travel Vibes for DR Doug R!!~~~
DR RLP - I think that man usually comes to audition for plays I am going to direct.

On Saturday I will get a haircut and proceed to give thanks that it is over for another year.
Bye for now.

Funny, I didn't notice a resemblance.

Did you get your replacement through WB? And if so did you just call their customer service # and they'll send you a replacement?

Nope, Amazon, where it's $5 cheaper.
For those concerned about the dvd mix being in mono, here's a quote (and link) from an interview with Grover Crisp, Executive VP of Asset Management, Film Restoration & Digital Mastering at Sony Pictures.
Q - The new DVD was released mono, but the press release indicated a new 5.1. What happened?
A - Quite frankly, I still don't know how it happened, except that somewhere in the manufacturing chain there was a mix-up and the wrong audio file was encoded. An honest mistake, but one that is obviously embarrassing and for which we apologize. The problem has been rectified now and as of last week all new discs manufactured have the correct 5.1 and anyone who wants a replacement can exchange it at the point of sale. All sellers should be aware of this.
Hope this helps.

tonight I went to Puss in Boots in 3D and was the only person in the theater.I sometimes enjoy that.
BK:
I have some questions about the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang cd (2cd)
I am wondering if I am correction on my assertions.
1) The Chu-Chi Face (Playback) sounds like the dance music at the castle (Sung after the vocal of Chu-Chi-Face and before Doll On the Music Box)
2) Doll On a Music Box (Part 3) Is this the actually version as heard and seen in the film rather than the version heard on the first cd1? As Dick Van Dyke stops singing three times. Twice being hit by Howes and once seeing his reflection.
And on CD1
Also what exactly are differences between the LP & film music for Chitty CHitty Bang Bang (Finale) & The Exit Music? I don't hear the differences
Matthew's order came in almost three hours later, so he probably missed it. George, I kept five emergency booklets for just this problem, so I'll instruct the helper to send you one.
