BK - SMOKE DETECTOR
« on: November 29, 2006, 01:18:59 AM »
Well, you've read the notes, the notes had both smoke and a detector, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they've been smoking and they've now been detected by our very own BK - Smoke Detector, which will be a Fox TV series next season.

Ack! What a night. My smoke detector just pops open & isn't connected to our security system. :D

I thoroughly dislike the smoke detector in our house.  It is far too sensitive.  It will go off if I'm boiling water!  Bleh.

Dear esteemed smoke detector BK -

Do you have any plans for post-Brain?  Or can you even imagine ahead that far?

I went to Tower yesterday. The going out of business sale has been on for quite a while but it's the first time I was able to get there. Well, it's pretty slim pickins'. I did manage to get a copy of Manhattan Transfer Live, the first live album, recorded at the Hammersmith in London in 1978. I had it on cassette and transferred it to CD but since it was on sale for $9 I went for it. I also got a copy of the DRG release of An Evening with Frank Loesser on sale for $6. After that there was nothing in the entire store that interested me. The Show Tunes were pretty much gone. There were some soundtracks but real bottom of the barrel choices and vocals were practically non-existent. Oh, well. I got two CDs. Can't ask for much more.

Good morning, guys...

I had 8 hours sleep for the first time in weeks, so now I'm ready to face the day,  and call my cousin.

Morning all. Trying to decide if I'm going to call my boss and tell him I'm not driving today but will wait until 5:00AM and see what the weather is like then.   We may have snow, which is no big deal, but closer to Des  Moines they are talking freezing rain and sleet.   I just don't want to drive in that.  I've pretty much made up my mind. I haven't even packed anything.....better go to work and make the phone call.

Wednesday morning greetings!  If DR Cillaliz has weather challenges today, and DR JRand expects snow tomorrow, does that mean I might get a snow day on Friday?

DR Edisaurus - I'm so sorry for the sudden loss in your family.

Morning Ginny!
 
Well, I have heaved a sigh of relief.  I called my boss in Des Moines and he said it's fine if I wait until tomorrow.  It makes for a very long day tomorrow - driving to Des Moines and back and sitting through the seminar, but I have had the feeling for 2 days that I shouldn't go today and I just can't ignore that.   I kind of feel like I dodged a bullet.

Good morning, DR Cillaliz!  Instinct is a useful thing, sometimes.  Hope tomorrow is a better driving day for you.

ASK BK:

If you ever read MAD magzine what was your favorite piece that they wrote?

I think I mention MAD in the first Kritzer book, but yes, I was a huge MAD fan and was buying it when it was comic-book-sized.  Of those issues (the first twenty-three), I liked Superduperman and the Howdy Doozit parodies best.  When it went to magazine size, my favorite was the West Side Story parody, East Side Story, which was brilliant.  For a time, I had a complete run of the first 150 issues, beautifully bound, but there one of the things I had to get rid of during the bad time a few years ago.  I now have fifteen of the first twenty-three thanks to Grant Geissman.  Mr. Geissman is a huge MAD fan-atic and has a major collection of their original art, plus he's written several books on the subject.
