THE HOLLYWOOD COLLECTORS SHOW

[bk]

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

[bk]

And the word of the day is: VIRAGO!

[bk]

And yes, Virginia, there will be photos posted after today's show.

[bk]

Welcome nine GUESTS.

[bk]

Who ARE you people?

[bk]

Nobody here but us chickens.

[bk]

Will we never get to page two?

[JoseSPiano]

Good Morning!

Well... I'm still up, but will be heading to bed shortly.  Unfortunately, the apartment is very cold right now since the radiators aren't on.  Of course, they'll probably come on around 4:30am like they usually do, but that doesn't do any of us any good between from the hour of 8:00pm when they turn off.    -Although, there was a report on tonight's news about how landlords are required by law to keep the building at a certain minimum temperature - and I'm sure that, right now, we're below that minimum.  We shall see...

[JoseSPiano]

Nobody here but us chickens.

Are you calling me a chicken?  I think the last person to call me "chicken" was... Oh, nevermind.

[JoseSPiano]

As for the Topic of the Day...

Peter Falk - "Columbo", "The Princess Bride"
George Kennedy - "The Naked Gun" series, and all those episodes of "The Love Boat" and "Fantasy Island"
Ernest Borgnine - "The Poseidon Adventure" and "SpongeBob SquarePants"

[JoseSPiano]

And...

Goodnight.

[Mike]

And the word of the day is: VIRAGO!

The little blue that gets big results. (For some men at least)

[FJL]

Loved Mr. Borgnine on the TV show THE SINGLE GUY.

[singdaw]

When bk writes of "Richard Hatch," I assume he's talking about this guy:

and not THIS guy:

[FJL]

Looking back at the imdb for THE SINGLE GUY - Was Ernest Borgnine really on only one episode of that show?  I seem to remember him being on more often than that - or maybe I watched his episode several times???

[singdaw]

And the word of the day is: VIRAGO!

I found this definition online:

1. A woman regarded as noisy, scolding, or domineering.

They also had this picture:

DR FJL - Sorry that you have to work today.  

[singdaw]

I have to go finish dubbing something for Mr. Tomovoz...

[Ben]

Good Morning. Ant is off to an early morning Saturday audition. The garbage trucks are out in force and I'm finishing my morning oatmeal.

That is all.

[elmore3003]

Good morning, all!  I have a 10 am meeting in Toyland with our mighty office manager Matthew, a wonderful man. We need to get the libretto for the new edition of The Lady Of The Slipper and do some fixes on the Act Thre libretto for Babes In Toyland.

After that, I'm back here for one more round of inventory and sealing more cartons; I finished about 16 yesterday, so there are around 26 to go.

DR MBarnum, thank you for the package this week. I must admit that I'm a bit afraid to put one of the discs in my DVD player!

[singdaw]

***AUDITION VIBES***

[td]

Good morning!  It's a blustery 17 degrees here in the 'burgh, but the sun is smiling down on us today.

Peter Falk:  THE GREAT RACE, POCKETFUL OF MIRACLES, THE PRINCESS BRIDE.

And the word of the day is: VIRAGO!

And The Song Of The Day Is: I HATE MEN

[Ben]

I must begin the arduous task of defrosting the freezer so we can go shopping tomorrow. Trader Joe's and Western Beef will get my money in the morning.

[Ben]

Good Morning Edi and Fred.

Before I defrost I will watch On Stage on NY 1

[FJL]

Ooh, thanks for the reminder about NY1 Onstage.  I wasn't watching the clock carefully enough.

[FJL]

My next eight post totals-to-date will begin with the numbers 1040.  Appropriate for a tax-office Saturday.  Happily, I won't need to be there the full day - this week, anyway.

[Edisaurus]

Good Morning Edi and Fred.

Good morning, Ben! Sorry I missed you--I had a lot of catchupping to do!

[Edisaurus]

A belated Happy Valentine's Day to you all (those who observe, anyway!)

I worked that day, and then came home to lots of treats from my DH.

We have given up on having flowers in the house anymore, because 4 big and energetic cats don't  mix well with flower vases. But Mr. Linton had two dozen red roses waiting, cut short and in a basket---beautiful and cat proof---waiting for me when I got home.

He picked up some things to cook for dinner, and we had the spaghetti that was leftover from our birthday party. (My mom's parnter always makes extra so we can bring some home.) It was delish and we had some nice wine. For dessert, he picked up some dangerously chocolate ganache tarts from our friends at the French bakery, and we each had a huge strawberry dipped in chocolate. Yummmm!

We went for a walk around the neighborhood between dinner and dessert.

[Edisaurus]

My DH also gave me a lovely card, and something I have been coveting since childhood. I have bought a few of them for the kids of friends, but never had one for myself. It is the kind of thing that my parents would have deemed frivolous because it's sort of a one-shot deal; you make the garden and then you throw it away. I always wanted one, but never thought of getting one for myself now that I'm a "grown-up".

I will document the process once i've begun...
