The day is a bit cool in the Bay Area, but the good news is that we are getting sea breezes and the air quality is improving dramatically.

Put in Giles Steele that I mentioned on page five (MGM costume designer), and you'll be back to 72.

Possible SPOILER re: "Design Star"

dj jjkfkj jlk lkja;kj; jerkjdkjkeljk zlkg;flj a asekrj;lkj f;lqkf;lkadf;lkjsf;lkjjkas;lkjdfl;kjsd;ls;lf steeljaw jflkjl;kjas;lkj;lkf;jajkskjlas; stubpaw kjjk;lkjl;kj fkjkljslkd;kjd snugdraw .d.,m.m I was kind of flabbergasted by the third episode of "Design Star" which aired yesterday evening. I was not overwhelmed by any of the solo, "white room" designs that the seven finalists threw together, but I was not prepared for the judges' assessments of one of them, which was head and shoulders BETTER than two others.

Poor Michael, the designer the judges ejected in this competiton, had what they called "the advantage" of picking his own country to be inspired by. Two of the others had Mexico, two had Thailand and two had Italy. Michael chose Spain. What impressed him about Spain, apparently, was the modern clubs he had been in with glossy floors and ultra-modern furnishings. His room came together quickly and it looked fairly good, if not inspired. Contrasted with a couple of others -- chiefly, Tracee's hideous cartoon of a room and Matt's atrocious Tibetan temple (one would never know unless he told you) -- Michael's was nicely done. Michael went first and the judges crucified him. Vern Yip declared, "I look more Spanish than that room does." So, what we were hearing here is that the judges expected to see "old" Spanish influences rather than something that one might see in clubs today. That's a rather literal interpretation I think, but it's their show. Another favorite of mine, Mikey V., did what he called a Thai zen garden. It looked like a Japanese restaurant to me, but the judges praised him. The other rooms were okay, but nobody blew the judges or the audience away.

The bottom three were Michael, Tracee and Matt. For two weeks, Tracee has been the weakest link in the competition, working with a partner, and this week she showed no solo talent at all, IMO, in doing an Italianate room, choosing a painted chandelier and a technique that might fit better in the theater of the absurd to construct a gondola bed.

Michael was told that he had the upper hand this week and that he blew it. Vern Yip told him that this week he didn't have anybody else to hide behind and his weaknesses showed through. Michael was devastated. "I" was devastated. Michael had been the strongest link in the past two teams he was part of, and made the toughest and best decisions that yielded high scores from the judges. What they haven't shown us must have something to do with Vern's venal condemnation. Tracee, on the other hand, is a wreck-in-progress. Her M.O. is to tear down everyone else's ideas and then to introduce crap. She has been at the bottom every week. When the judges criticize her work she dissolves into tears. When her fellow competitors tell her they don't like her manner of work, she tells them she's ashamed to be associated with them, then dissolves into tears. And still she walks through the green room door much to all the other contestants' dismay. The judges seem to be evaluating her on something "other than" what she's actually doing. It's not much fun, at this point, to see her continue to survive while better designers -- last week's D. Paul and this week's Michael -- are sent home. I'm giving the show one more week. If I think a fix is definitley on, I'll stop watching it.

Well the set is built. I haven't seen it yet, but I am leaving in a bit to do the lighting. I will take my camera so pictures may be taken!

The Youth Theatre Workshop is OVAH, so we don't have to deal with all of those brats anymore. The best thing about this week.

Of course THREE people are out tonight....but that's another story. Hopefully everyone will be off book, but that would be a bonus - or a miracle....or both.

I got a nice surprise package from DRMBARNUM today. It will be wonderful to come home and watch a nice Bollywood movie or other DVD when I get home every night this week.....

I hope DR JOSE is surviving his day with his charges and the Man from RUG.

I predict tears and recriminations and long piercing glances across the room from many participants.
