I saw Indiana Jones today at the "The Dome". I had not been there in a while and forgot just how impressive it was. I sat in the 4th row center and was very happy

For those who haven't seen it and are worried about the tales you have been hearing about how far out there the plot is - remember - the other movies weren't exactly believable either.

Yes, there is a lot of CGI - only a minor portion of it really sticks out though. Yes, you see where all the plot points are going from the very beginning. Yes, the stunts have crossed into the realm of the entirely unbelievable, like most action movies these days. But mostly the movie is fun and funny and filled with Indy jokes.

Wow, I came on and it seems like everyone else left >.<

One more picture - just because I love the inside.

We had a wonderful work session with Miss Jenna Green and Miss Emily Rozek - how fun it was to see Emily again and to meet Jenna. We decided on the program for the event and it's going to be really swellegant. We have to do one more little work session next week, then we don't get together again until the band rehearsal the day before.

The Dome is impressive, but the way they show movies is not. The projection is too dim and it is foolish to show 35mm scope on a Cinerama-sized screen designed for 70mm - I simply will not go there. I have a screening of Indy on Monday at the DGA - that's where to see movies.

Will we never get to page nine?

I ate some chicken for dinner, whilst watching a Charlie Chan movie - unfortunately the power in the den crashed four times, which was very annoying. Clearly there is a short somewhere between the breaker and that section of the house that involves the den and the guest bathroom.

I gotta tell you.

Oh, that's right - it's after nine - WUSSBURGER time.

Got it.

I'm home...and have been for a couple of hours. Most is well and the lunch with TCB, Skip and Fred was delightful.

I need to ketchup with all the posts first...so, back to Page 4.

This video was posted on the Randy Newman group's list. but I thought the DR's might enjoy it. Great choreography and directing!

I remember watching this episode! It was wonderful. I bought the 3-D video...it came with 2 pairs of 3-D glasses. I still have it.

To be honest, a lot of names were brought up during lunch; and all of the talk was very nice. In fact, we were being so damn nice; you would have sworn we were auditioning for a remake of Polyanna.

True, very true.

There is a Cinerama theater in Seattle. We saw "Star Wars" there years ago, when it was re-released.

I had read some bad press about UGLY BETTY's season finale, but I found it very good. Yes, there's a stupid cliffhanger, but I enjoyed the show otherwise.

I just love Betty's father, and Eddie Cibrian as Hilda's potential new boy friend - YUM!

Did you ever see the movie, "But I'm a Cheerleader!"? He's in that and he's VERY yummy!

I am sure that Fred and Skip would appreciate a few vibes sent their way. While we were at lunch, Skip received a phone call from the director of STARFIGHTER informing him that their leading man's (he plays Alex) father had suffered a stroke. Hopefully, everything will work itself out, but the first performance is tomorrow night.

That definitely was some unexpected news. $:-\$

Well, I was able to take a few pictures, but no portraits. Anyway, here's the theater marquee in Issaquah, Washington:

And yes, the theater really is that narrow.

I don't remember the name of the restaurant where we ate, but here is one of the appetizers that we got. It's (what's left of) bruschetta (and was very good):

Fred also ordered some coconut shrimp appetizer, but I didn't get a picture of that...nor did I eat any. To me, seafood =

I had the Asian chicken salad. I really enjoyed it:

I don't remember what TCB, Skip or Fred had, but here are pictures of what they had. First is TCB's meal:

And finally, Fred's:

George · « **Reply #238 on:** May 22, 2008, 10:54:13 PM »

At least, I think I attributed the pictures to the correct eaters.

Well, BK will be a bit happier. Since we're so close...
