I do like a Zero bar. They are difficult to find, though.

I'm not crazy about the candy but I do like the name Skittles.

I also like Rolos. I know it's more about the candy name but I like the candy and I like the name.

I thought at first I had stumbled into a group of doctors, (DR) but now that I realize I'm a "Dear Reader", I feel the love!

I am a documentary filmmakerand I've love musical theatre since I was a child. My filmmaking partner is in NY so that gives me a great excuse to sneak up for a few shows now and then. I have a husband who is also in film (I'm an editor, he's a soundman) and 4 cats whom we serve.

I ended up on this forum while updating imdb listings for our current film. I was looking up guitarist Grant Geissman (I worked with him on a film a few years back), and saw he'd contributed music to the "Nudie" Making of...film. I saw the original film years ago and thought it was a lot of fun, and surfed my way here.

Thanks to Bruce---I really can't believe he produces all these albums, writes plays and books and still finds time to jog, watch movies and post every day. I feel like such a slugabed slacker!

Thanks for the warm welcome---looking forward to hearing more about the World of Haines.

Edisaurus is my name because everyone I work with seems to be younger than I am! I still have my filmediting equipment even though now I work with computers, so I decided to embrace my "inner dinosaur"!

But before I go I will post a picture (I think it's a good size, I trimmed it down) of me as "Voice of the Foundation Center" I recently re-recorded all the phone messages on the Center's switchboard system and they took a picture of me while doing the project.

I now have a $50 Barnes & Noble Gift Card as a thank you for recording the spots. We went browsing on Sunday but I haven't bought anything. I was tempted by Grey Gardens but I'm still hoping to find it at Academy Records for less than $18.99 plus tax.

So, I'm still surprised each day to find myself... where??? Jeez, six years on the road... So, today I'm at the Marina loft. Yowza! Every few daze it seems I'm somewhere else... I am here through the first week of Oct, anyway. Then to my sister's place - again - to care for her dawg - again - while she hies herself off on a birthday cruise for a week. Thence, off I go Northward - again - to the cabin. Back to the Marina end of Oct, hopefully through mid-December or so. We'll see...

Still hoping that Jane and Keith will name the puppy Muzzbee... yup, it Muzzbee Love!

If I may ask, did you see the intro about them?  She's gay and when she came out to her father, he was very upset.  He doesn't understand. Part of what they are doing is trying to mend their relationship and bond again.  What I liked was seeing how proud she was of him when he made it to the top of the walll after he had such difficulty climbing the rope and how he is clearly starting to see her and respect her for who she is.   I'm a sucker for those types of stories  

Yes, I did see that part, but totally forgot about it.  Maybe that's why I got the vibes i did from him.  Like I said, I didn't have any problems with her.

And re: him getting to the top. It's nice when the partner is supportive (i think she will be).  But he looked fit to me. I wondered why he had so much trouble getting to the top (since he didn't look more than mid-40s to me).

I will be curious to see how far apart the teams are when they start episode two. Since they did not give the times it took to the climb the rope (i wish they had), this will give us a good indication.

DR FJL - the birth year listed for Frances Farmer in your quote yesterday was incorrect.  Frances was born in 1913.  She passed away about six weeks shy of her 57th birthday in 1970.

One of my favorite candy names:

ZAGNUT -- a candy bar popular in the United States that was originally launched in 1930. It was acquired by The Hershey Company in 1996. Its main ingredients are peanut butter and toasted coconut, and weighs 1.75 ounces (50 g). Also, very uncommon for a candy bar, it contains no chocolate....

I love Zagnut!  The Top Foods on the west side of Olympia has them in their bulk foods candy section (it's great because you can load up on extra coconut...which I like). :D

Then there's the Whatchamacallit.  That's pretty good. :)

I like Zero candy bars, also! ;)

I actually won a portable CD player from a Zero wrapper about 10 years ago!  I gave it to my dad and he still has it...he said that he does need to get a new one, though.  It's not working as well as it used to, but it certainly did last quite a while!

Well, if you can find something else to bundle with it, Amazon.com has a good price on the Grey Gardens OCR.  ;)

I'm still in Missouri...I'm not planning on moving until around the 1st of the year. I want to go down there with a financial cushion in case I don't find work immediately. I'm really anxious to get out of here though, so it may happen sooner if I find the means.

Loved the pic of Mickey & Jayne....DR MBARNUM.  

Hargitay lived in Indianapolis for awhile, and in fact his ex-wife whom he divorced to marry Jayne lived here for many years.

I love all these birthday wishes and I may have to have another tomorrow just to keep them coming!  It would so cheer me up after all this IRS hell I have been going through.  A lot of it is the consequence of my own stupidity, as my brother and his wife Lady Macbeth were so happy to let me know on July 5, but having to deal with all this only shows the IRS how financially incompetent I am!  

On the positive side, you Hainsies and Kimmlets are fantastic, my dear friend BK didn't lose a cast member, I get to play with the Brain from Planet X, and I got paid today!

DR MattH, what were the four roles you read for?  DR Jose, what time is your train?
