I think the other DRs that responded missed DR Tomovoz's point.

Yes, I "catch up" reading unread posts without logging in, as I don't want DRs to think I'm sitting there being rude, not responding, when I'm still behind in previous pages. Once I've caught up with all posts and notes, I log in.

Oh, please! I log in each time I visit. If folks want to huff and puff about why I'm sitting there let them.

I pleases me!

BK's notes are my home page; I read the notes, then the posts.

Mr. Pogue, you should have a royalty check soon. I used a giftcard to get the HD-DVD of Dragonslayer this morning.

I hope it WAS "Dragonslayer"....much the better movie, IMO!

Catching up is not always a good thing. It makes me want to comment upon things I've read.

How was work today, DR RLP?

Neil Simon has said he never expected the biggest laugh in THE ODD COUPLE to come on this line:

You left me a note that said: "We're all out of corn flakes. F.U." It took me four hours to figure out that F.U. was Felix Ungar.

When I have done THE ODD COUPLE....it is indeed ONE BIG LAUGH!

It's busy.

It's nothing hard.

It's been short, to an extent.

But I'd still rather be home.

Amen.

Very cold here....and not much network television is new tonight. I think I will watch WIFE SWAP and SUPER NANNY in their season premieres and then a new PWOJECT WUNWAY.

There is a Pioneers of Television episode on PBS, but not sure when it plays in my area....probably tomorrow.

DR JMK - late this month will mark the 50th anniversary of the appearance of Ms Frances Farmer Anderson Lobley (soon to be) Mikesell on Ralph Edwards' show THIS IS YOUR LIFE.

MBarnum · « **Reply #253 on:** January 02, 2008, 04:40:05 PM »

I have gotten very little movie watching done...but by golly I have taken some mighty lengthy naps!

I am half way through the 1956 film noir C.I.D. starring Dev Anand, Shakila, Johnny Walker, and KumKum. it is quite good.

Plot: A detective investigates the murder of a newspaper editor.

You wouldn't think so, but those Hindi's made some excellent film noirs in the 50s.

There is a Jupiter-Uranus alignment today that will stimulate mental faculties....so everybody think hard!!!

DR CILLA LIZ - a hematite ring or pendant can help absorb negativity.

Thanks JRand. I have one somewhere, I may have to dig it out

What do the stars say about Thursday and our caucus night

Almost enough time to get the "smarm-taste" out of my mouth.

I took a little drive, wrote another half-page and finished the first chapter, and will mush on, perhaps even later tonight, but most certainly tomorrow morning.

I'm watching all the pundits and talking heads tell me what I'm going to do tomorrow. LOL, I don't think any of them are right. I have to say, politics is more fun this year than ever before and I think it's mostly because the media is admitting they have no idea what we are going to decide tomorrow. LOL I LOVE IT

O'Reilly's Factor started off by stating that the Iowa straw polls had little meaning and was a "media driven" event - to prove his point he talked about it for over 30 minutes!

My favorite seasonal quote so far:

Quote

It is really easy to understand why most of the candidates have not captured a decisive edge in the competitions ahead. Few of them want to sculpt in fine detail their political and policy personas and want to remain blurry.
They want us to guess what they might do -- and some of us who turn our guesses into votes for an ultimate winner will still find ourselves disappointed that the reasons we supported this or that candidate got shelved in the end.
Despite all of the drama of this campaign process, when I think this through, I can very easily constrain my enthusiasm for any of the candidates.

To resurrect a phrase from my college years, I spent Monday driving the porcelain bus.

I say "praying to the porcelain god."

Before I leave, George, JMK mentioned a site you linked to called Freevid and Freerecorder. I haven't caught up yet and I may have missed it. When I google that phrase all I find is porn references. Could you possibly enlighten me as to the correct Internet location of Freevid so that I can bypass the porn? Thanks.

If you go to http://keepvid.com/, click on the "Record," "Convert" or "Play" links and you'll go to sites (all from the same company) that have products to download to try or buy.

I wanted to say this about Take Flight, the recording of the new Maltby/Shire musical which intercuts between the lives and stories of the Wright brothers, Charles Lindbergh, and Amelia Earhart: it's wonderful!

I have always LOVED Maltby & Shire's scores for their reviews [ Starting Here, Starting Now and Closer Than Ever ], and LOVED even more their score for Baby, where every single number is a winner. But then their adaptation of the movie Big really disappointed me...with one or two exceptions, their score just didn't ignite for me.

But in Take Flight, they've returned to top form, IMHO. The music is different - not as immediately accessible as some of their other scores. But it is well-crafted, and ultimately it really soars. Just beautiful.

I suppose I should read the subsequent posts before I respond.

DR Cillaliz - thanks for all of your updates. I think it is fascinating. And I will be thinking of you tomorrow night!

Do any other DRs read and catch up on the notes before logging on here?

I read the BK's Notes, log in and then ketchup with all of the posts. So if there's something that I want to respond to, I'm already signed in. I still need to go back to Monday's posts, though...I only got to page 18.
