Meanwhile...the hand office and the foot office remain blithely unaware.

I think my house needs painting.

And that, dear readers, is definitely a euphymism !!  I may have to "scrape and prep" you dear MB, before we paint you!

Has anybody heard anything about the new show on FOX called DRIVE? It starts on sunday (although it is on in canada this friday).

I can't tell if it is part reality show or what?

DRIVE

Quote
The next time you’re cut off by crazed drivers on your way to work, give them a little slack. They could be racing for their lives.

DRIVE is an action-fueled drama following a diverse group of Americans competing for their lives (or the lives of their loved ones) in an illegal, underground cross-country road race. Some of them have been coerced into joining “The Race”; others have sought out The Race themselves, hearing rumors of the $32-million prize. Each has a reason to compete. And each must win.

ALEX TULLY (Nathan Fillion, “Firefly,” “Slither”) is thrust into The Race in an effort to find his missing wife. New mother WENDY PATRAKAS (Melanie Lynskey) is on the run from her husband and competing for the safety of her newborn baby – or possibly something much more extraordinary. JOHN TRIMBLE (Dylan Baker) is a buttoned-down scientist who embraces The Race as the last chance to show his rebellious 15-year-old daughter VIOLET (Emma Stone) that he can be spontaneous. WINSTON SALAZAR (Kevin Alejandro) views The Race as an opportunity to leave his criminal past behind and bond with SEAN (J.D. Pardo), the half-brother he has only just met. Hurricane Katrina survivors IVY CHITTY (Taryn Manning, “Hustle & Flow”), LEIGH BARNTHOUSE (Rochelle Aytes) and SUSAN CHAMBLEE (Michael Hyatt) are determined to start their lives over and help rebuild their fallen city with The Race’s winnings. ELLIE HOWE (Mircea Monroe) sees The Race as an opportunity to keep her boyfriend, military specialist ROB LAIRD (Riley Smith), from being sent back to Iraq. And CORINNA WILES (Kristin Lehman), who becomes an uneasy partner with Alex, is a gorgeous and mysterious stowaway who may well hold the key to the secrets of “The Race” and its mysterious benefactors.

Although MR. BRIGHT (Charles Martin Smith), The Race liaison, has informed them that there are other competitors, the group does not know exactly whom they’re racing against, or even where the finish line is. With each mile clocked, the drivers get closer – not only to the end of the road and a critical, life-changing victory, but to understanding the mystery behind The Race itself.

I remember reading a fairly lengthy and detailed account of that late night work session where Mr. S. and Jerome Robbins supposedly created "Rose's Turn."

But where...WHERE did I read that?  Was in the Secrest biography, or what?

Well, it might have been either that or the S&M rumors!

I love that Fillion's parenthetical credits are for "Firefly" and "Slither".  He's probably known to a wider audience as Caleb from the last season of "Buffy, the Vampire Slayer."

An idol doesn't necessarily equal talent. An idol is marketed to the young girls (or boys). I have never watched American Idol (except for a Youtube clip once or twice), but doesn't that fit Sanjaya?

Not quite. The target demographic is Concert Ticket Buyers and CD buyers - older teens and young adults. Sanjaya's main fan base seems to be barely pubescent girls.

It's not that he is so God-awful, it's just that he's not really great! An Idol needs to be more than warm and comfy - he needs to knock your sox off!

Der Brucer - I'd have fun, but I don't know if anyone else would have fun reading them

There once was a boy named Naomi
Who shaved with some cream oh so foamy
His housemate would moan
As he sat on the throne
Hey while you're right here won't you (CENSORED)

Almost forgot, it's a family site!!!!!

You're welcome and thank you.  I'm happy to be back!

DR Ginny, where did you get a June 28 return date?  I'm waiting for my brothers' vacation schedules to establish a date to return and clean out dad's gouse.  It was way too cold last week.

DR Elmore - June 28 is the day DH Richard and I will arrive in New York for our long weekend after being in Washington, DC, for the American Library Association conference.  I hope that's not when you're next in Ohio - we're looking forward to playing with you in NYC!

But I like your pretty pictures anyway!

I like Fillions IMDB quote about playing Caleb:

Quote
My favorite villains are the ones you don't see coming. What I enjoyed about playing Caleb was that he was so very, very clever, so very, very sweet, and so very, very twisted. I liked that he's not a typical villain. He's soft and sweet and righteous, and yet he's perverted and twisted in his head.


Is he talking about producers?
