Gee...maybe she knows She of the Evil Eye?

Shortly I will be headed to a board meeting.

Are any of the Los Angeles area HHWers planning to attend any of the Film Noir screenings at The Egyptian theater later this month?

I do believe I will go to see THE KILLING/SLEEPING CITY double feature which will have actress Colleen Gray in attendance for a Q and A on Wednesday April 25.

Unfortunately the movies that I really want to see are all playing the week prior to my arrival in Tinsletown.

I shall pre-purchase my ticket in case it gets sold out.

I have yet to find any live theater that I want to attend during my visit, mainly because most everthing only plays Friday and Saturdays and those two days will find me wandering around the ballroom of the Burbank Marriott chatting up people like Erik Estrada, Henry Winkler, and Traci Lords.

In my current shape, this girl named Fred is more "pop and fresh" than "mop and pail" (a Pillsbury doughboy reference)

What actor was it about whom a critic said he was "more Pillsbury than Bloomsberry?"

Some discussion at AndrewSullivan about this:

An old old joke:

How is a drag queen's dress like a cheap hotel?

No ballroom

Raining all day today here....so I have not done my usual Wednesday gadding about town.

I walked to Subway earlier to get lunch. Does that count as gadding?

Was watching a special on NGEO about preparations for a state dinner at Windsor Palace.

Prince Phillip seems to be something of a twit....and HRH while making some inspections said "Okay" and "Yeah, sure...." Very informal with her staff, but certainly (as one said) "Wants it in front of her when she wants it...."

TOP DESIGN limps to its conclusion tonight - I don't think I will watch the premiere episode of the Hair Design show that follows.

Very disappointed in the final two contestants and would have been MUCH happier with the OTHER distaff contestant that was sent home last week. I do NOT like Carissa and think she has shown NO design savvy or talent. Hopefully she will crash and burn tonight.

Well, since I mentioned that I had to locate and mark 2 vertical studs in my wall yesterday.....

I thought I'd beat the others to it, and post my own picture of "2 vertical studs". These 2 painted my house a few years ago.....it was such a chore to have to keep taking them cold water.... snacks...paper towels....cold lobster salad.....

Well, perhaps one vertical stud and a chicken little.

I can't believe tonight's IDOL is 1 hour. Yuck. I hate when they stretch these things. I'll probably just tape it and ff through the boring parts. Or maybe just watch the last half.

If I'm not mistaken, we've seen the last of the half hour results shows. They're going to be long for the rest of the season.

Has anybody heard anything about the new show on FOX called DRIVE? It starts on sunday (although it is on in canada this friday).

I can't tell if it is part reality show or what?

It is definitely NOT a reality show.

I finished listening to the rest of the EASTER PARADE commentary while I fixed lunch. Both Fricke and Ms. Astaire-Makenzie read excerpts from reviews of the time of EASTER PARADE. That slowed things down to a crawl. The rest was entertaining.

Jrand73 · « **Reply #175 on:** April 11, 2007, 02:34:02 PM »

DRIVE is indeed a fictional series.

An hour-long results show for AI is about 55 minutes too much!

DRJOSE has mentioned GREASE auditions....are these the auditions for that big HIT revival that is opening soon on Broadway with Max Crumm?

Next, I watched last night's BOSTON LEGAL. Fun show though the trial Alan was a part of was a joke. One of the least convincing wins for him ever.

I didn't know Clarence had a different male alter ego. We'd only met the female ones.

I really liked Mark Valley's meltdown in the partners' board room. It was his best scene of the entire season.

ENTOURAGE had its first episode of the second half of the season, and it was pretty fun with Vince's birthday celebration. Just love Ari Gold trying to weasel his way back into Vince's favor.

Matt H. · « **Reply #179 on:** April 11, 2007, 02:39:04 PM »

THE SOPRANOS season opener also featured a birthday celebration - Tony's 47th. Pretty intense stuff between Tony and Bobby, and that was one blundering murder from my point of view.

As usual, I can't stand A.J.
