singdaw will be posting pix of Mrs. Zero from ADDING MACHINE any minute now.  

Or maybe I will...

[JoseSPiano]

-Consider that the Page Two Dance too then.  

[JoseSPiano]

And now I'm off to MoMA to spend a couple of minutes with the Van Goghs, and then an afternoon of auditions...

Laters...

[Ginny]

Thanks for the vibes!  We are into our 5th day without electricity and can use all the cheering up we can get.

[Ginny]

Off to a meeting - maybe they'll have coffee....

Bye for now.

[Ben]

This might be of interest to someone, somewhere

I'm back from my 45-minute walk: over to Columbus, down to 6th and back up Broadway.  The trailers and equipment trucks are still on Broadway between 80th and 82nd so I guess the Upper West Side filming continues, just not at the church today.

Thanks for the vibes!  We are into our 5th day without electricity and can use all the cheering up we can get.

DR Ginny, I am so sorry! I knpw that Randy and Jo have power and my nephew Cory told me their power was back on Tuesday night.  

[JMK]

She's saner than you or I!

Talking to yourselfselves, it's lonely.....

[elmore3003]

I'm going to follow DR MBarnum's advice and purchase a crock pot, so I need some advice, DRs: how many quarts and what's a reputable brand?

[Cillaliz]

DR Ginny, heck with the vibes, sounds like you need a generator!!

Here's the link to the review of the Non-equity tour of CHICAGO that I saw last night. I have to say I pretty much agree with Bruce. It is pretty sad when the star of the show turns out to be Amos Hart.

The acting? When a guy called "Mr. Cellophane" is the standout, you know there's work to be done

Thursday morning greetings!  The power is still not on at our house and I am NO LONGER AMUSED.  As of last night, the houses we can see from our kitchen have lights, so it's getting very frustrating.

When Hurricane Hugo came through here in 1989, many in our city were without power for two weeks or longer. I live on the corner, but my power is generated by the transfomer on the side street, not the main street. Living down the side street from me a few houses down was the mother of Charlotte's then-mayor. She was like 87 years old. Anyway, that side street (including me) got power back in about three days. My neighbors beside me on the main street were about 12 days getting their power back, and I can tell you there were many neighbors who were very angry about that. I let folks come in and shower with hot water, etc once power was restored to me.

I have to admit I got VERY sick of eating grilled food during those three days we were without power.

Ron P - I couldn't agree more with your assessment of the economic situation.   I have been amazed at the loans that banks etc have given out to people who clearly can't afford them.  When I bought my house, I got something in my price range and couldn't imagine doing anything but a fixed rate traditional mortgage and when some of the other forms of mortgages were proposed and I questioned why anyone would want them with the problems they could cause down the road,  the loan officer just smiled and said, "Some people don't think about that" or something like that.  

I don't have any sympathy for the banks that made these stupid loans to satisfy their own greed or, and I don't mean to be cold or offend anyone, but I don't have a lot of sympathy for someone making $45,000 who thinks they can buy a $300,000 house.  Hello. Those numbers don't add up and they never did.

[Matt H.]

Good morning!

It's going to be a beautiful day here. Morning started out sunny but very cool, and it's warming to 78 today. Perfect introduction to fall weather. And the cools mornings are supposed to continue for at least the next five days.

[Cillaliz]

I guess I was just raised to live within my means.  I do have a degree in economics, but I wouldn't think it would take that to understand what you can and can't pay out of a monthly paycheck,

[Cillaliz]

When I was young we had a huge blizzard around the holidays and the power was out. I'm not sure how long. I do know everyone was wrapped in blankets over their clothes and we huddled around the fireplace.

[Matt H.]

On TV Tonight:

BURN NOTICE (summer season finale)

SMALLVILLE (season premiere)

SUPERNATURAL (season premiere)

FLASHPOINT

[Cillaliz]

Ok, I better get to work. One more day and I get a 4 day weekend woo-hoo.

BTW, I read that Obama did an interview in the past few days and said he won't propose to change Don't Ask Don't Tell alone, that the military would have to want to do that. And that he won't propose legislation to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act.  That's up to Congress.   Interesting

[Matt H.]

Hopefully, I'll be finishing up WILL & GRACE this afternoon. There appear to be a fair number of bonus features to get through.

Tonight, I'll start on the new GODFATHER set. I may not get to any of the TV shows aside from maybe BURN NOTICE.

Mrs. Primrose is a nut? But but but but but but but but but...

[Ron Pulliam]

Was it the Zero bar that had white frosting and yummy nougat inside?

I remember loving that one.

Yes!  Yes!   [size=8] Yes![/size]

[singdaw]

Yes!  Yes!   [size=8] Yes![/size]

I'll have what he's having...

[MBarnum]

TOD:

Favorite candy from my childhood...like Jose, I loved the green apple Jolly Rancher sticks as well as candy cigarettes and that Japanese Rice Paper candy.

[Jennifer]

Coffee crisp and aero are canadian chocolate bars? I had no idea.

And i also had no idea that you guys did not get smarties (the ones like M + Ms). I love those.

[Matt H.]

Right now I have two favorite candies: Hershey's Cherry Cordial kisses and M&M almonds.

All Reece's peanut butter cup incarnations (eggs, trees, etc.) are to die for!

[Matt H.]

Now I must head down to clean up for lunch out with friends.

WBBL.

[Jennifer]

Yep tonight is the season premiere of SMALLVILLE.

The paper here talks about some of the shows on that night and it actually gave a casting spoiler, which i was totally unaware of.

I'll leave space in case anyone does not want to know.

I find smallville actually has very complex plot twists. So i don't even remember exactly what happened on the finale. But apparently the guy that plays lex will not be back this season. And lana is leaving in november. I am really surprised about the first one! How will they explain this. He is such a key part of the show!

Thursday morning greetings!  The power is still not on at our house and I am NO LONGER AMUSED.  As of last night, the houses we can see from our kitchen have lights, so it's getting very frustrating.

I know how you feel.  During our second stint living in Michigan we were amongst 6 homes that regularly lost power.  During summer storms loosing power in Michigan was a fairly common occurrence to begin with.  One does learn to be grateful for the little things, our first house was on a well which meant no water.   At least in house number 2, while we watched the lights across the street with envy, we at least had water.  

We still use the large lanterns the neighbor behind us purchased during one of the outages.
