Thanks, singdaw.

The McCarter blog entry for today seems to be an interview the literary manager did with Skip.

Thanks for posting this, DR FJL.

Break a leg tonight, Skip!

Hmm... I haven't watched "Tora! Tora!" in a while...

And that's actually "Tora! Tora! Tora!"

Off to Jersey.

Since opening night is Friday, i wonder if there'll be critics there tonight.

Now, I've got some writing to do, so I'm jumping off line to work on it and then heading back down to watch as much of the bonus features as I can with the rest of the evening.

Guess who may be checking you out on Facebook, Wikipedia and MySpace?

The Department of Homeland Security and the FBI are poring over non-verifiable profiles on the Web to help decide who should be allowed into the country and who may pose a threat to national security.

Information is even being collected through Google searches, DHS and FBI sources confirmed to FOXNews.com.
…
Even U.S. citizens are having their Web profiles reviewed. People who buy one-way airline tickets, for example, are automatically flagged for security reasons, and authorities say a passenger’s name may be crosschecked against Facebook, YouTube or MySpace.

"It's shocking what's out there about you on the Internet — what you wrote on that Facebook page, MySpace page back in high school that you don't use anymore. Anything you've ever written and anything anyone's ever written about you, it's all still there," said Kuck

I just spoke to my sister-in-law Jo; her beautiful dog Maddy will be in surgery on Friday morning to have a large lump removed from her hip. She told me that Lady Macbeth broke her foot or ankle this past Saturday night (Jo's as apathetic as I am). Just when I was thinking about sending her painless methods of suicide. Why does everything bad happen to me?

Wow!?!?

So did you just have a great, late afternoon lunch at Shake Shack too?!?!

*And I even went for the Double Stack today. Come to think of it, today's burger was my first one here in months (since I've mainly been a B-line person lately). Still one of the best burgers in NYC.

bk · « **Reply #193 on:** September 10, 2008, 02:37:07 PM »

Back from a really fun lunch meeting. Had my double chicken breast with sauteed onions and garlic, only I had a single rather than a double.

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #194 on:** September 10, 2008, 02:40:04 PM »

Good Afternoon!

Greetings from Gramercy Park, home of the aforementioned Shake Shack.

And now I think I shall walk down to Union Square to see what the Greenmarket vendors are offering today.

Oy--not one, not two, but three large boxes of review discs arrived. Everything from Will & Grace 8 to Torchwood 2 to a slew of Goosebumps (the title of my next novel, BTW) to Cybill (not to be confused with Sybil) to Robotech to.....

I've got some watchin' to do.

I got an interesting DVD today - a region 2 copy of Darling Lili - as film fans know, the region 1 release was a recut that Blake Edwards did, which is considerably shorter than the film as originally released. The cut scenes were included as an extra, but there was no way to watch the film with them included. The region 2 DVD is the film as it was originally released at 137 minutes.

Wow, everyone is getting movies!

At lunch I popped over to Best Buy and picked up WAR OF THE GARGANTUAS and RODAN

(both movie include the Japanese and English dubbed versions...plus a nifty documentary that interviews many of the old Toho Studios actors!)

MBarnum · « **Reply #199 on:** September 10, 2008, 04:00:41 PM »

And with any luck the mailman will bring me the DVD of OPERA HOUSE.

Mahi Mahi spelled backwards is Iham Iham, which is a type of actor.

I'm thinking about taking a drive, but if I took a drive I suppose I'd just have to put it back.

I doubt this is remotely cultural, DR MBarnum, and I shudder to ask: what is it?

Of course it is. Did anyone say it was something else?

Well of course OPERA HOUSE is cultural...it is a 1961 Bollywood murder mystery starring Ajit and Shakila.

Gosh, but this day is winding down nicely.

Will be glad to get home. Will be glad to put "Boy on a Dolphin" into my CD player and luxuriate in it.

Shouldn't it be called "Bopera House"?

I didn't know the 8th (and mercifully LAST) season of "Will and Grace" had been announced.
