How about Bobby Blake as he was billed during his last years in the Our Gang / Little Rascals days?

Bunsen Burner is a Muppets character.

Actually, his name is Dr. Bunson Honeydew.  But the good news is that because I had to look to make sure that that is his correct name, I found out that Volume 3 of "The Muppet Show" is going to be released on May 20 (which I have just ordered)!!  Oh Happy Day!! :D

May 20th is also Eliza Dolittle Day!

I was actually thinking of Beaker DR George. Call me confused.
of course Bunson Burner may be a character in another show.

Whew!  Multi-tasking!  Earlier, watched last night's Housewives.  Then walked the dog.  Now virus scanning the laptop, doing laundry, cooking, and doing dishes.

DR Jennifer - Believe the "gossip" about David Archuleta's father.  And since there's a chance I may be getting into tomorrow night's "AI" taping...  Maybe I can ask him directly about the rumors.  ;D
Daddy or son?

In any case...

I had a good time at the taping of "Chelsea Lately".  I met up with Cason down at LACC and then we motored on out to the studio where we waited.  And waited.  And waited.  The tickets said to be in line by 2:15, so we got there around 1:30 - and there were already a couple of people in front of us.  The security guards started passing out the small bins for us to put our jewelry, belts, etc. (anything metal) in around 2:15, but the line to start going through the metal detector didn't start moving until around 2:40.  They finally started seating people in the studio a little after 3:00, and then after the requisite warm-up by the warm-up comedian, they started the show/taping around 3:20.  And since it basically ran in real time, we were done a little before 4:00.

It really is/was a small studio - only 85 people were let in for the taping.  i was being "good" and left my camera in the car as the tickets/website instructed, but, of course, as soon as we got in there it seemed that everyone else started taking out their cameras and camera phones and started snapping away. Ah, well...

Her panelists for the first part of show were comedians Brad Wollack, Finesse Mitchell and Bob Marley (not that Bob Marley), and her special guest today was Poppy Montgomery from "Without A Trace".

We ended up getting seated in the third row, and if all the audience shots are kept, we should be easily spotted a few times during the show.  "Chelsea Lately" airs tonight at 11:30 on E!  Needless to say, there are at least four DVRs/TiVos on stand-by for tonight's airing.  ;)

After the taping, we headed back up to Los Feliz, and supped a small Greek place.  Very good food, and just what both of us needed after waiting in line for an hour and a half, and clapping our palms off for another 45 minutes.  I could tell that both of needed a little blood-sugar boost by then.

It was great seeing Cason again and catching up on everything.  And he actually plans on heading to the Chance Theatre to catch The Brain out there sometime in the next few weeks.

And, yes, BK, I passed on your "message" to him.  ;D

...Then Cason headed on back to his place, and I walked back up to where I'm staying since it was so close by.  -I also made a stop for some coffee - the gray weather seems to have zapped my energy level today.  Then again, since I think I only got about four hours of sleep last night, well... that may have something to do with it too.  ;)

OH!!

My friend, Michael, in NYC just sent me an e-mail with the following link in it.  The subject of the e-mail he sent to me was: "So this is the real reason you went to L.A.!"

DR edisaurus - Just in case you missed it, there was a wonderful article/feature about Bill Irwin and his new clowning piece in Sunday's New York Times.   -It's still available online.

I'm back from a frustrating band rehearsal with the Men's Chorus, and i'm unhappy, feeling both underappreciated and left in the lurch because of their financial situation, booking too much music into too little time, and whatever chance I have to fix those charts is gone: I won't be at the dress rehearsal this weekend and I won't be arpound for the concert, There are problems in two numbers that I wanted to fix tonight and they're not gonna happen; they never played the damned pieces completely through so I only know there will be train wrecks at the dress reheasrsal and I can do nothing about it.

I think I'm going to turn off the computer and go to bed. Fuck'em all.
