Back from the editing room.  All is well.  One can't say the same for UPS, the most reprehensibly stupid organization on the face of the earth.  My amazon package has been out for delivery since seven this morning, going to my mail place (a UPS Store).  They made the delivery but didn't leave my package - it was a new guy - they said he seemed confused and not together.  I called UPS about two o'clock and told them the problem, and they said they'd call back.  They didn't.  I just called again and reamed somebody out and they're supposed to call again by six.  If not, I'll call again.  I know I won't be getting the package until tomorrow, and worse, I know they don't give a flying Wallenda.  Just tough beans for their customers.

Go Go Gophers

Out west in Gopher Gulch lived Indian tribe.
Then come the pioneers, pushed them aside.
All Indians leave but two, they vow to fight.
What can two Indians do?
(Gibberish)
 
Go go gophers, watch them go go go.
Go go gophers, watch them go go go.
 
Here comes the colonel with his sargeant,
Both are a-roarin' and a-chargin'.
Go go gophers, watch them go go go.
 
Two little Indians, no others near.
Colonel he vows these two soon disappear.
Fighting the army with soldiers galore.
What can two Indians do?
(Gibberish)
 
Go go gophers, watch them go go go.
Go go gophers, watch them go go go.
 
Here comes the colonel with his sargeant,
Both are a-roarin' and a-chargin'.
Go go gophers, watch them go go go.
Go go gophers, watch them go go go.

Did I say a couple?  There are 11 position openings posted in today's newsletter, including the assistant manager of our department whose resignation was announced last week.  The one that concerns me is a posting of my very own job!  They're upgrading the position to reflect more accurately how I've developed the role of grants and nonprofit outreach librarian, but the goofy thing is that I have to apply and, potentially, compete (if there are any other applicants).  This will be the second time in a little over 2 years that I've had to apply for the job I'm already doing - I had to do the same thing when moving from 32 to 40 hours a week.  Ain't bureaucracy grand?


I hear ya....

Last night, TCB posted:

"I am not sure my body is doing too well tonight.  A truck backed into my car this afternoon while I was sitting in it.  I had already put the car in Park, so I think I felt it more than I might have otherwise.  I thought I was fine, but I am starting to get a little sore. "

What I want to know is...TCB, what were you doing in that truck???  


Thanks for the laugh, Ron, I needed it.  Even if it did take me about five minutes to figure it out. ???

On a happier DVD note, my final two DVDs from the Deep Discount DVD sale on Criterion titles finally arrived.  "A Night to Remember" came last Thursday, and I got "The Last Temptation of Christ" in yesterday's mail.

I believe the last temptation of Christ was a night to remember!!

You're special, DR Ben, just special.  Tell Anthony I have a 1905 theatre scrapbook at the office to show him.


Don't tell me.  It contains your etchings?

Thanks to TPunk for the good vibes, earlier today; as well as anyone else I forgot to thank.  Perhaps I should take another pill and go back to bed.

I have my movie set for the next couple of nights after work. I need to watch a few movies for a paper I am owrking on...

Thunderheart
Dances With Wolves

Need to check out Windwalker, Skins, and PowWow Highway.

I am comparing and applying anthropological theory to the differences of native images as seen through the lens of white and native film makers / documentarians.

Good Evening!

I really cannot imagine that they would vote out anybody but konnik and melissa. But i guess one never knows for sure.  I really thought these were the two who would go before tonight's performance.

I watched the first hour of GET BRUCE! He's an entertaining and very witty man, but I would rather have had more with him and less with the antics of Robin Williams, Bette Midler, Billy Crystal, Whoopi, etc. Of course, what they say IS his work, so perhaps they couldn't have done this documentary without them. I just find him an interesting enough person to not need them to PERFORM for the camera. Robin Williams in particular feels compelled to "be on."

IDOL - - - -







Kinnick definitely needs to go. She was close to leaving last week, and this week was worse, totally off pitch (even bad enough for all three judges to comment about it) and just no vibe for the camera.

The judges ragged on Melissa, but I thought she had her best week yet. Sorry they didn't get it. She may be going, but I'll tell you that I voted for Ayla several times and her line was never busy either throughout the entire two hours.

Others having off nights:

Paris and Lisa. These two young girls finally showed that they, too, are vulnerable to having off nights.

I have to say, however, I thought the audience was also very unresponsive this week. There was very little applause or enthusiasm for anyone compared to the previous two weeks.

Really enjoyed HOUSE tonight. Greg Grunberg (who was the original pilot in LOST and was off and on ALIAS through the entire run) gave an affecting performance.

How kind of you to enlighten me.  I've only heard "prep" used in medical situations.

Really? You must not be watching Martha Stewart!

We also use it sometimes in the field of HIV testing.

The noose is tightening on THE SHIELD. Only two more episodes to go this season, and every minute is wonderfully tension-filled.

I own 3 pairs of pajamas and a kurta.

For those who are interested, Rodzinski owns several pairs of pajama pants made by yours truly.

I have yet to see him attempt a split jump while wearing them however.

I ordered WALK THE LINE at a great price today....

DR's DAKOTA CELT and GINNY - the full moon is on March 14, but Jupiter AND Mercury are both in retrograde...so small annoyances abound for us all.

DR RLP - the documentary on A NIGHT TO REMEMBER has an interview with Walter Lord - and had never seen an extensive interview with him, it is very interesting, as is the William MacQuitty footage.

Very sad news, DRMBARNUM.  Mr Healey was of course the leading man for Miss Allison Hayes in THE UNEARTHLY.

And yes, DRMATTH - he was the bully of dry gulch.  ;D

And DR WFO - when I think of Allison's struggle, I do also think of the story of Joe.  The FDA is uniterested in such things and as a result, people get sick and die every day!
