I think the new issue of Entertainment Weekly is having trouble getting across the Ohio River. Border's still had last week's and Kroger didn't have any issue.

Maybe DR Elmore will have to bring me one from NYC.

Yes, revision-free vibes to Miss Karen.

Return to HHW vibes to DR and DS Cason.

Well, it has to cross the Ohio and the Mississippi Rivers and the Rockies. We might be able to check a few places in the Cincinnati area tomorrow.

Will 4,000 posts earn me my HHW toaster?

I'm still waiting for mine.

Round Five (or is it Six) of the Eternal Lawn Mowing has been completed. I'm now close to 1/3 done. Did I mention: oy.

An OK evening of viewing. I began with VANAJA. A coming of age story with an Indian teenager. The plot was very familiar, but the culture that surrounded the story, the thing the director said in his introduction that he wanted to catalog, was certainly present in spades and that helped maintain my interest.

And the child's dancing was quite impressive knowing that she had no training as a dancer before being cast in the film.

(I also thought about DR MBarnum during the shower scene when we got generous glimpses of Karan Singh's complete torso from the back.

My copy arrived in today's mail, its usual delivery day.

The disc had many more bonus features than I was expecting. In addition to an introduction of the film by the director, there was a nice interview with the teenaged star of the movie. There were also the complete dances which had of necessity been abridged in the movie, and four student films (shot of video) by the director. Also the trailer.

My evening of viewing began and ended with COPS, where many people doing bad things were apprehended.

Matt H. · « **Reply #253 on:** May 17, 2008, 08:17:29 PM »

Then, I went back to THE INVADERS. The first one featured Jack Lord and Diana Hyland as guest stars.

Matt H. · « **Reply #254 on:** May 17, 2008, 08:18:24 PM »

The second had the aliens being able to control locust attacks on a small Kansas town. Jeanette Nolan was one of the guest stars.

Matt H. · « **Reply #255 on:** May 17, 2008, 08:19:32 PM »

And the third had William Windom and Andrew Duggan as guest stars, playing military men involved in nuclear testing that was a cover for the aliens wanting to cause an explosion powerful enough to tip the Earth off its axis.

Matt H. · « **Reply #256 on:** May 17, 2008, 08:20:22 PM »

So, I've now finished 8 out of 17 INVADERS episodes in this set. On to disc 3 tomorrow. One of those episodes has a commentary by the creator of the series, and I'm looking forward to hearing that.

Matt H. · « **Reply #257 on:** May 17, 2008, 08:34:03 PM »

Going to log off now to do some writing. I'll likely not be back this evening.

Good night!

I brought in some lilacs from my bush in the back yard. Man does is smell good in here!

DearReaderLaura · « **Reply #259 on:** May 17, 2008, 08:48:40 PM »

Living in the desert, I don't know from lilacs.

Cillaliz · « **Reply #260 on:** May 17, 2008, 08:52:29 PM »

Lilacs, not mine just a photo on the web

Cillaliz · « **Reply #261 on:** May 17, 2008, 08:55:20 PM »

More lilacs. They have a heavy scent that reminds me a little of the orange blossoms in bloom in Phoenix

DearReaderLaura · « **Reply #262 on:** May 17, 2008, 08:56:44 PM »

Ooooh. Those are pretty!

Cillaliz · « **Reply #263 on:** May 17, 2008, 09:02:38 PM »

They grow on big bushes. They come in white, lavender, purple and all shades in between

I shall probably take a second look at my Netflix disc for the weekend, YUVA, which I'm sure that DR MBarnum would like as much as I did:

I have heard of this film but had no idea what the plot was...glad to know it is a good one and it is not on my list!

Cillaliz · « **Reply #265 on:** May 17, 2008, 09:11:48 PM »

DR Laura, stay cool - your forecast is 100+ degrees for the next 3 days.

DearReaderLaura · « **Reply #266 on:** May 17, 2008, 09:28:05 PM »

Ha! I wish!

For the next six months, I'd say!

DearReaderLaura · « **Reply #267 on:** May 17, 2008, 09:28:46 PM »

But thank you. Now comes the time of year we tolerate. Most of us really enjoyed the spring this year.

I just learned I will not get my rebate direct deposited because I went through Turbotax and had the fees deducted from my refund. So, because the last 2 digits of my SS are in the high 90s I get to wait until July. Hmm, I was really hoping to get it now, I've already spent it twice!

Oh! and one of our leading men plays quite a reprehensible character. . .there's a darkness to the film that I really liked. . .as well as the three leading players.
