I'm up, I'm up. I think it's swell that it was only in the 80s the other day when the sign in front of my eyes clearly said 90. Clearly someone was trying to gaslight me.

Actually the official temperatures are most likely from airport weather stations. In large urban land masses like Manhattan, you will regularly get hotter temps at ground level in the "urban canyons" - so your sign and the "official" temperatures could be quite different. I suspect the gas station sign more accurately reflects the comfort index than does the Weather bureau's official figures.

COLD CASE does have its season premiere tonight, so I'll likely pause the BRIAN episodes for at least an hour to watch it.

Tomorrow, season premieres begin for real for many shows.

We also have Ken Burn's new documentary series on The War (II) on PBS (in HD no less).

Yes, I knew about it (SHARK premeires tonight, too). I certainly have NO time to invest in Burns' undoubtedly superb series. I'll have to catch it later in some other format - either on demand or on DVD.

No. DISBELIEF!

MMM has resurrected the "Robinson Crusoe on Mars" debate at FSM Message Board.

I don't see why he shouldn't have started a thread for Robinson Crusoe on Mars, as we were left in limbo about what John Morgan was going to report from Fred Steiner.

But when I read one of his subsequent posts - contradicting John Morgan whom he himself asked to look into the matter - about not believing what Steiner would say if it didn't corraborate what MMM thought... I admit I had to shake my head.

There's also someone named Glen Holland who brought up the Steiner/Van Cleave connection on the Non-Film Discussion Board... who interviewed Steiner aobut Van Cleave... but didn't answer my question about Steiner's involvement. Perhaps he'll see the new thread and give his opinion there.

IOWA to get a Christmas caucus?

ASSOCIATED PRESS

Quote

Florida Democrats Sticking to Early Presidential Primary

The Florida Democratic Party will stick with a Jan. 29 presidential primary even if it means losing all its nominating convention delegates, a party source said Saturday.

The Democratic National Committee gave the state party until Sept. 29 to come up with an alternative delegate selection plan to stay within party rules, such as caucuses or a vote-by-mail primary, but party leadership has rejected that idea.

...

Michigan has scheduled a Jan. 15 primary.

So, as it now stands. two major states will lose all of their Democrat delegates (and half their Republican delegates) and IOWA will be ringing in sometime in December.

Why do I think we're going to have some legal challenges?

Hmm.. There seem to be a lot of people at the Broadway Flea Market, but it doesn't look "crazy" - although, who knows what it's like down there in person.

I wasn't planning on going, but since I'll be seeing a show this afternoon, well... I also just remembered that the Avenue Q folks are supposed to be selling their "George Bush Is Only For Now" t-shirts.

If there are any DRs who would also like one, but can't make it to Shubert Alley...

Or perhaps not.

I am totally stunned and shocked. George Clooney and his girlfriend were injured in a motorcycle accident Friday in New Jersey.

Good morning assorted studlies and lovelies, and H/Ks and DRs. It is a very mild morning here in the land of the desert, and it is CERTAINLY ABOUT TIME !

The daytimes are still heating up, and A/C is still required, but there is finally a big contrast between 8:00 AM and then 2 or 3 in the afternoon.Huzzah !

I have a few plants that I want to move from containers to my new planters in my little front patio, so.... in honor of LadyBird Johnson,...

I think I shall go "...plant a tree, a shrub, or a bush."

Last night I attended a delightful performance of our very own PennyO's show "Jewish Thighs on Broadway"...in North Bend, WA! A couple of weeks ago, she PM'd me and said this: "I'm doing the "family version" which means most of the really dark stuff - and the 'brief partial nudity' are OUT - replaced by a couple of extra songs." No partial nudity? Well, let me tell you that it wasn't needed! She was wonderful! And her accompanist was her very first accompanist when she did the show for the very first time seven years ago. He was very good, as well.

The program has an art noveau feeling to it.

Bruce, people gaslight me all the time.

If you tihink one person is gaslighting you .... than you're being gaslighted.

If you think more than one person is gaslighting you.... than you might have a different kind of issue..

[Hopefully this will come across as a clever and not a lame joke...I'm never sure with my sense of humor.]

But is it any more cryptic than coming on here and telling someone "You have a PM from me" or "check your email." Either way, you're letting a person know you want to tell them something, but still not share the content with the group, right?
