Good morning, all! DR JRand58, I am so sorry about the death of your friend. I read your notes about him tyhis morning, and I hope that the service for him is more a joyful celebration of his 42 years than a mournful farewell.
I'm off to Toyland very shortly to deal with things that were put off for the past weeks because of another's commitment, hopefully organize what work needs to be accomplished in the near future, and learn the status of various parts of two different jobs.
DR MattH, I agree with you completely about GHOST WHISPERER, and its plot this week reminded me of a cautionary warning for children against predators although I thought the teenager in danger was such a pill she deserved what her stupidity brought on. It was nice to see my old acquaintance Raphael Sbarge, whom I haven't seen sicne he did the AH WILDERNESS at Lincoln Center. I wished afterwards, though, that I'd realized CRUSOE was on for two hours.
I disagree about LIFE, which gets a plea for viewers in this week's ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: I loved the Arkin-career storyline, especially when the students were all noisily typing on their keyboards, and I thnk the show's a great ride, although I do miss the creepy Robin Weigert and think Donal Logue's character is a waste of writing and space.
