I had a hankering to see Boitano's gold medal winning free skate from 1988 - and then realized that it can probably be found on YouTube.  :D

I'm at work now, but will check that out later when I get home.

Well, I have an appointment in about an hour, but it is not with my regular doctor.  This annoys me no end, but it was either that or the ER.

DR JOSE - I think discussing the auditionees on your blog as you often do here, might be upsetting to some.......your blog is likely to become very popular in the trade....so discretion will out.

I will always err on the side of discretion.  However, the only thing I'm "legally" obliged to do is to leave out their real name when describing such events.  So, if I change the name and the song selection, well...  Hmm...

??? ??? ???

And, remember, I also discuss the amazingly talented people that come by my piano.

A friend said that when he saw BD in HERRINGBONE, BD looked even hunkier than he did in MULAN.

(You see, BD played a buffed-up cartoon character in MULAN and....oh, never mind)


I had to look this up on imdb, and found this character bio for the character BD played in Mulan, Shang:

WARNING:  MULAN SPOILER!!!

Quote
Captain Li Shang is a character from the Disney animated movie "Mulan". He is the captain of the army where Mulan enlists to fight the Huns.

When Mulan elists the army as a boy named Ping, Shang doesn't believe she is a great warrior. Mulan quickly proves him wrong, passing a series of tests and earning his respect. Him and Mulan quickly become friends. However, she is wounded in a battle with Shan Yu, and when the doctor is checking her up, he finds out who she really is. Since Mulan saved his life by burying Shan Yu in apile of snow, Shang decides to forgive her, but she is kicked out of the army. Later, Mulan sees that Shan Yu is still alive and is going to invade the village. But when she goes to warn everybody, no one believes her, sincetheir trust in her is shattered. Thus, Mulan teams up with Mushu and defeats Shan Yu. This proves to Shang how good and corageous Mulan is despite of her sex. At the end of the movie, he realizes that he is in love with Mulan, and they become boyfriends.

No, really, that's what's written there!  I just added the bold type, that's all.

Oh, yes, Kee's.  Alas, the couple of times I've gone to Kee's Chocolates, she's been out of the macaroons.  However, her chocolates are a truly worthy substitute.

DR derBRUCER - Debra Messing has neither tits nor talent.....but she IS the new Lucille Ball, just ask her.
I think she compares more with the OLD Lucille Ball, circa Mame.

DR GINNY - might I suggest a Gmail account for your mom.  The YAHOO beta mail is a pain and causes lots of crashes.

It is the primary reason I am still using Yahoo Classic Mail.

Title of my next how-to book:

The ability to remain upright on Ice:

The book will detail the finer points of Northern shuffle and gait when it comes to walking on ice. It will cover the finer points of footwear, slipping and walking gracefully!

When did "they" start giving out "Pewter Medals" for fourth place finishers at ice skating events?

Is it unique to U.S. Nationals?
