DR Matthew, it is nice to have you back. Good luck with your moving options.

Speaking of moving, DS Craig still needs a job so he can move, as well as feed the pets & the girlfriend.

Oh, boy, is it ever hot and humid! The hot air that rushed in when I opened the door to pick up the mail was just sickening. Ugh!

I began my afternoon by watching the rest of the Disney ATLANTIS. They certainly did give it a very strong Dolby Digital EX audio mix on the DVD, very powerful. The movie was not so great, but it did have some great voices. Besides Michael J. Fox and James Garner that I mentioned yesterday were also John Mahoney, Leonard Nimoy, Don Novello, David Ogden Steirs, Jim Varney.

Matt H. · « **Reply #276 on:** August 04, 2008, 01:21:03 PM »

Next, I watched TWENTY-FOUR EYES. It's the story of a teacher and her effect on her very first first grade class going from 1928 to 1946. A tearjerker in the same exact vein as GOODBYE, MR. CHIPS and GOOD MORNING, MISS DOVE. Yes, I was weeping constantly through the movie. Those of us who were teachers know at some point we do have an effect on the children who come through our doors, and stories like these just bring it home. Like the teacher in the movie, I was in the classroom long enough to teach two generations of family, see former students become teachers themselves, etc. So, the movie resonated very much for me.

I am still ever hopeful for some rain.

There are not many bonuses on this disc. There is an interview with a Japense film scholar about the effect the movie had on audiences and two trailers. That's all (well, except for the usual booklet Criterion includes in its sets.)

Good Afternoon!

Errands accomplished, and now a bit of "chill time" before heading out for dinner.

DR elmore - Dinner plans?

Not tonight, Jose. I'm sorry.

bk - Do you know the "Chris Busch" mentioned in this article?

Sill and Busch Will Be Meredith Willson in Sondheim Center's Banjo Boy

I thought I'd read Charles Busch was playing the elder Willson! I think this musical is a bad idea. Why wopuld you want to write a musical about a composer and have to live up (or down) to the original writer's abilities?

Matt H. · « **Reply #281 on:** August 04, 2008, 01:29:05 PM »

Then I skimmed through today's AS THE WORLD TURNS. No gay boys and not in the previews for tomorrow either.

I remember those! Danged if I can remember the pseudonym used by the authors of the series, though. (Yep, they were co-written.)

I concluded my afternoon watching about 20 minutes of HOLLYWOOD REVUE OF 1929. Sadly, it's the same off center copy that the laserdisc was (I guess that's all that's left to us); a bit of picture information gets chopped off on the left. I may or may not watch more today. I'll make my DVD-R copy tomorrow.

You people have been busy. I'm surprised we've had this many C.L.s and they're excellent.

Constant Lambert - Brit classical and film composer.

Very nice one, BK. Well done. I wracked my brain trying to remember film music C.L.s and Lambert never came up. After "Christopher Lambert", you'd think it might have "occurred" to me, but NO! :

DR Ronp, re: what you wrote last night about BIG BROTHER

and america's player.

I actually don't have a hard time believing that dan was chosen. Even my mom said that he was her guess
I think you'd have to consider who people would want to get the $20K. And most of the others are so objectionable.

Here is where we seem on different wavelengths. Dan is fine as a player covering his butt, but not as AP.

To me, he's as irritating as the one they forced on us last year. I hate that stupid little chuckle he uses each time he has an AP mission...he's so smarmy about it. Thank goodness it's only for the week.

I'd much rather see Renny or Ollie get $20K.

You may have noticed as soon as I posted that I wish there was a verdict, I disappeared, that's because there was a verdict.

He was charged with First Degree Murder which carries life without parole
First Degree Robbery which carries 25 years and
First Degree Kidnapping, which is life without parole.

They had 2 eye witnesses who testified they saw my client shoot him.

He was convicted of Willful Injury Causing Serious Injury - which carries a 10 year max
Willful injury causing bodily injury which carries a 5 year max and
Kidnapping in the third degree which carries a 10 year max

We Won.

Yes-- they were lovers who wrote them together until they both died very young( most unfortunate). COBALT, VERMILLION, SLATE, CANARY

So great!

So, DR Cillaliz - Is this when the stenographer turned to you and said, "Was it because I'm a lesbian?"

<"Law & Order" sound effect>

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #290 on:** August 04, 2008, 01:49:49 PM »

Nathan Aldyne was the pseudonym of Michael McDowell and Dennis Schuetz. McDowell was a novelist and screenwriter (Beetlejuice, The Nightmare Before Christmas) living in Boston. He died from complications from AIDS in 1999. Schuetz, also from Boston, died of complications from AIDS iin 1989. They also published two novels under another collaborative pseudonym, Axel Young.

Congrats Cillaliz! I guess the lesser of two evils (three times) is cause for celebration. Will your client serve the sentences concurrently or consecutively?

Way to go, Cilla.

And, BTW, I am back from a 4 mile plus walk to and from the local shoppes. It was hot and my feet hurt.

Matthew · « **Reply #293 on:** August 04, 2008, 01:58:55 PM »

Congrats Cillaliz!

I'm off to the Mall (blech!) for a new iPhone and some new Crocs!

Cillaliz · « **Reply #295 on:** August 04, 2008, 02:03:26 PM »

Thanks everyone. FWIW, I really believe he didn't shoot the kid. The forensic evidence didn't match the stories of the witnesses, the trajectories were all wrong.

I don't think I know him. Our very own Adam Cates is associate choreogrphing the show - it really sounds dreadful, I must say.

Becky and I had lunch at Culver's, then shopped at T. J. Maxx and Target. It was great to see her and we may be able to get together again before she and her husband take off on the next leg of their boat excursion.
