Happily, I've read all the Marx Brothers bios.

Well, no one can say we didn't get to page ten.  I'll be going to get my sandwich in a little while.

Oh, I see---the first one wasn't spelled correctly (according to imdb) so I didn't see it when I scrolled thru the list.

I'm loading the season finale for THE CLOSER. Very dramatic---big budget, and a cliffhanger!

Had a nice lunch out and did some walking which is always good, but it was too humid for any long walks. I'll be able to get back in my walking mode once cooler weather returns.

I watched two episodes of THE SHIELD completely and about six minutes into the third episode. This is such a brilliant series. I will be sad to see it come to an end beginning in September.

Argh! I want it to have a fourth season of at least 50 episodes!

Both of the episodes I watched thus far also had audio commentaries, though the first two had too many people present. The third has Michael Chiklis and Jay Karnes only and is much better.

The first two episodes also had 11 deleted scenes which I watched. They were all cut for matters of time, and nothing was in them that wasn't covered elsewhere.

The first two episodes ended the story arc for Forest Whitaker who should have gotten an Emmy for his work in the show. He wasn't even nominated!

Good Afternoon!

Greetings from MoMA... Where it turns out they offer free WiFi. So, not only can I access the Internet via my iPhone, but I can also take advantage of MoMA Audio which describes the various exhibitions and selected works of Art. Cool!

Oh, DR Jose, that is so cool!  Does it only work with iPhones, or others?

Now I am going to take the old PC to the experts to see if it can be revived.  There is some stuff on there that I'd really like to recover!  Fortunately, most of the critial files are backed up and already accessible.  But the address book and old email/email addresses seem to be a problem, for some reason.

We got that rain they predicted. Maybe it'll cool things off, and I can open up the house for the evening. That would be great!

I'm hopping off-line now to do some writing. Then, I'll be heading back down to continue with THE SHIELD.

Looking forward to THE CLOSER tonight. It's that Sanchez-centered episode DR Edi mentioned some weeks ago.
