Well, you've read the notes, the notes were ho-like, and now it is time for you to post until the ho, ho, ho cows come home.

I'm quite tired, so I shall shortly toddle off to the bedroom environment.

Mr McDermott appeared here in Melbourne as Tony in a most enjoyable production of "West Side Story".

I have a copy of his "New York Nights" CD from 1995.

I went to the griffith Observatory today for the first time since the re-model. It is really very nice, and the new show planetarium show is well put together. No more lasarium shows though, which is sad. I remember seeing a laser show to Dark Side of the Moon there. Fond childhood memories.

I have finished watching two -- count them. two -- motion pictures on HD DVD.

The first was "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix." I was entertained enormously, although I was a bit perplexed about why the youngsters weren't officially indoctrinated into the order by the oldsters.

Imelda Staunton was fantastic as Umbridge. Very interesting, indeed, the casting in this film, including Helena Bonham Carter 'trying out???" for "Sweeney Todd"?

The second was "The Bourne Ultimatum." I loves me my Jason Bourne films. This one was fast-paced and well-edited IF a bit contrived, IMO, in the character portrayed by David Strathairn, who -- excellent as he was -- must have winced just a bit at playing such a moronic dolt. One of the chases (on rooftops in Madrid) went on just a tad longer than was comfortable for me, so I fast-forwarded to its climax and the film played out quite well from there.

I anticipate a fourth Bourne film.

So now it's off to bed, I think. Later today I must pack and do the things I need to do to ensure I get myself to the airport in plenty of time to check in, clear security and then sit and wait and wait and wait.

I hope I remember to take something entertaining along to keep my mind occupied. I generally eschew (gesundheit) too much extra carry-on if I can at all prevent carrying it on. A good book will suffice if it's truly good.

Time to snooze so I don't lose any productive time later one.

G'night.

Right now, I'm watching last night's "Boston Legal." I didn't really care for this episode. Just before that, I watched the last four episodes of "Heroes." When "BL" is done, I'm going to bed.

Travel vibes for DR RLP.

I love AUTUMN LEAVES, the movie and the song. Joan certainly does suffer a LOT....even her job is lousy.

And she gets to tell Vera Miles: "You are too vile even for hell!"

If that bastard thinks I'm paying him more than $25 million for that property, he's got another thing coming.

Good morning, all! The alarm went off at 6:30 but I slept in until 8:30. My nly prssing business today is to clear the Christmas gifts out of their amassed pile and preapre them for wrap and ship. I'v got a bit of orchestration fixes for Mr Ron Raines to do in the next couple of days and some NYPL and office work for Toyland.

DR FJL, the problem with Boston is none of us have the same open days for the trip, and it's closing on the 23rd. The intentions were certainly good, but I believe we should have planned this a month ago so that our schedules were in sync: DR Jose's free this Thursday but I'm not, and I feel it's getting too close to Christmas to impose on my friends in Providence. People usually need a month warning before I visit so they can leave town, relocate, change phone numbers, whatever. Perhaps next holiday season?

DR Jose, thanks for being my escort last evening. I'm always amazed that these things seem to pull together as well as they do, but the concert wouldn't have been nearly as fun without you.

Wednesday morning greetings! Today feels like Monday to me, because yesterday was my day off, Monday I was at an off-site meeting all day, and I still have four workdays ahead of me.

Thank you all for making my birthday yesterday so much fun with greetings from all over the world!

Another nickname for SawDawg?

ChinWag, ShinWag, ShinDig, DinSwing, SinDawg (we can make a bunch up for him out of it)...ShowTime, SheDevil ... the variations are limitless (as we have found).

The title of my next musical I'm entering in NYMF ...

(of course like most musicals with long titles -- say ala A Funny Thing Happened On the Way to the Forum which most folks refer to as Funny Thing or Forum, mine will end up being referred to as Chincy Bassa...)
