Man Oozes Green Blood Before Operation

Sounds like another David Wechter/Bruce Kimmel storyline.

So Edi, since the Tony for the Alliance belongs to all of Atlanta have they given you a schedule yet for when you get to display it and for how long?  ;)

The Color Purple had its World Premiere at the Alliance Theatre in Atlanta. The Alliance Theatre received the Annual Regional Theatre Tony Award last night. Fantasia recently went into The Color Purple in the starring role and got excellent reviews. As a tie-in to Color Purple's continuing presence on Broadway and its beginnings at the Alliance Theatre they decided to have Fantasia sing a song from the show.

Well stated, DR Ben!

Well, I felt like it was an honor just to be nominated.

Thank you, Mom.

Wow, I did as well as

Melissa Rose Bernardo, Entertainment Weekly: 21 out of 25 correct

I missed Lighting of a Musical. I went with 110 in the Shade based on a friend's comments.

I missed Orchestrations. Again, I went with 110 in the Shade because I thought they might give something to Mr. Tunick and I also heard good things about the orchestrations even though they have been reduced to play with fewer instruments.

I missed Book of a Musical because I didn't think SA would have such an overwhelming sweep and I do think the book for GG is better than SA.

I missed Actor in a Musical. I wanted DHP to win but I went with the crowd because it did seem as if RE had it sewn up the way CE had it sewn up for GG. I was mightily surprised and happy to see DHP (who seemed genuinely suprised) take the award.

Hmmm...a couple of real interesting items on eBay.  I would bid, but I'm afraid that all I'll wind up doing is raising the price.


And THAT is why you should look into www.esnipe.com.

Good Afternoon!

Back from my jog around the reservoir.  What a gorgeous day.  I just ran a lap and a 1/4, and according my Nike+ iPod thingy, I actually set a new "record pace" for my mile.  :)

-Although, I really was just trying to take it nice and easy today.  I guess "nice and easy" is just getting "nicer and easier".  ;)

And THAT is why you should look into www.esnipe.com.

Does e-Bay not let you place "reserve bids" - or whatever the term is where you can set what you "high bid" will be, but you start off at the current "winning low".  But if someone outbids you, then it goes up incrementally until your threshold is reached?

Just wondrin'?

Actually, Paul's monologue yesterday was sponsored by Dannon Activia Strawberry Yogurt, Whole Foods Raw Almonds, and one of the flavors of Vitamin Water - XXX.  All in all, a very healthy sponsorship.

However, Saturday night's monologue was sponsored by Levain.  I dropped off a box of cookies for the Keyboard 1 player since it was his last night before he heads off to work on The Little Mermaid full time.  And since I'll be one of the first-call subs for that show when it comes in in the fall... :)

Thanks, DR Jane.

Although, actually, it does sort of happen often.  This time, however, there were witnesses.  :)

It's quite the eye-catching product title.  I think it stands for triple anti-oXidants.  It's quite tasty too!

Why is it that whenever I try to burn photos from my computer to a cd I can never remember how...and the instructions that Windows gives do not make any sense...I will be darned if I can find anthing that says "files and folders tasks" or "pictures tasks" anywhere!

DR MBarnum - Windows make that whole process more complicated than it has to be.  All you really have to - as long as you know where and which pictures you want to transfer to CD are - is:

1) Open up Windows Explorer and navigate to the pictures you want to transfer.  -If they're spread among different folders, the "easiest" thing to do is to move/copy them all to the same folder.

2) Insert a blank CD into your CD-ROM drive.  If you get the prompts asking what to do with that blank CD, you can just cancel out of that screen.

3) Go back to the folder where you put your pics.  Select the folder/pics by double-clicking them or a doing a "marquee select".  Then just drag the folder/files to the CD-ROM icon that should now be in the directory tree.

-You'll then get the prompts asking if you really want to do this - depending how your computer is set-up - just keeping clicking "Yes".  That should do it.

Just think of your CD-ROM drive as another folder, so all you have to do to copy things to it is just drag and drop them like you would any other file on your hard-drive.
