It's like a plot

Nefarious, insidious, or otherwise?

HINKY....or, "otherwise".

[George]

I just don't know what to say about that cookie cutter.

"Ew" comes to mind.

[Ron Pulliam]

Mail call:  My 5-port HDMI switcher just arrived.  It's like a plot to give me NO EXCUSES to wait until Friday to start moving stuff around and hooking the new stuff up.

I'd work on it early tonight, have everything hooked up to perfection, and then reward yourself by watching LIFE in HD. Perfect evening!

1st of all:  I'd love for you to just hop on a plane, fly in and get all this done for me before I get home from work.  Barring that highly improbable scenario, there's no way "moi" could ever accomplish all that needs doing before "Life" airs this evening.

2nd of all:  I can watch "Life" in HD without assembling the new TV stand, rearranging all my components, including HD-DVD and Blu-ray players, figuring out the HDMI port and moving all the excess stuff out of the way.

[Ron Pulliam]

I got an e-mail from Disney telling me the Blu-ray of the Cheetah Girls concert is on the way. I can't say that I'm jumping up and down with happiness, but after TRANSFORMERS, anything different sounds appealing.

I've gotta say...I haven't been watching "Transformers", but "Cheetah Girls in Concert" does NOT sound like anything I'd ever look forward to.

So many lovely Dear Readers in The Living Room, all at one time!  You'd think they'd announced a sale on underpants or something!  

 You mean they're not on sale?!?!?!!?!

Well, I believe many DRs would probably gather all at once for "underpants" whether or not they're on sale.

I had to buy new underpants for "The Orgy" in Reefer Madness: The Musical!

Not like this, though:

[Ron Pulliam]

It is all coming together for you DR RLP, just like one big Blue Ray puzzle!

I feel like a contestant on "Survivor" who is usually good at puzzles but feels the weight of possibly being voted off if I don't get it right.

Set your DVR to record LIFE, and on the "off" chance you didn't finish before it airs, you could watch it later in the evening, maybe even enjoying a Blu-ray disc beforehand.

Actually, I know with a lot of components, all of this DOES take time, and assembling a new stand will add to the mix.

But it sure would be my #1 priority this evening. Supper be damned!

[Matt H.]

I've got a bit of writing to do, and then I must head back down to rejoin Optimus Prime and the others as they wage war on Megatron.

Not like this, though:

[Edisaurus]

Glad to hear to made it home safely, bk!

[Jrand74]

Is this where the underpants are on sale?

[Jrand74]

MR BK is now back in the land of oranges and sunshine.

MATT H et al-

I am struggling whether to buy a PIONEER or PANASONIC 50" Plasma TV.
What is your opinion? I will also enter into the Blu Ray Age.

So Many Possibilities

The Pioneer plasmas have gotten the best reviews for the past two years, but they are also the most expensive. This year's Panasonic model came in a very close second behind the Pioneer in terms of picture quality and was cheaper. Both give exemplary pictures.

And if you're going to buy a Blu-ray player, let me know what you're looking at, and I can advise you there, too.

I got a Panasonic 720p 50" Plasma back in May, but I got a deal after deal after deal, so it was VERY cheap for me. Otherwise, I love it.  Great picture and (so far) no problems.  But, I don't have a Blu-ray player...yet.

I am typing from my new computer, and the other is all boxed up for its trip to Tekserve.

Curiously, after being told that there was no scheduled pick up for Fed Ex today, a driver showed up at 4 pm and took the cartons.

UPS also delivered my chest of drawers, so there's been a real flurry of activity here today.

[Jane]

Oh, I am in heaven.  I'm eating a Mallowmar.

Sherlock barked & barked & then Keith came inside with a UPS deliver for me.   I had no idea Mallowmar's came in a 3 box set which means I can share with Keith.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU DEAR ELMORE.

[TCB]

That has happened since my recent bout with insomnia. 

Who won?

[TCB]

Jrand - Haven't seen "myself" on the Cialis commercial yet.

Be careful, people will start thinking that you take the stuff.

I am still having people ask me about my recent heart problems from the hospital ad.

[TCB]

OH!

And here's a "testament" to the Power of those Patented HHW Vibes - Here's a picture of my mother that I took this this past Sunday when we were out for lunch.

It's sort of hard to believe that she had her heart surgery a little less than two months ago. 

Fantastic!  Continued health vibes to her.

You're welcome, Nursie!

And now i'm off to rehearsal at Riverside Church for the Men's Chorus.

[TCB]

Thank you all for the continued vibes for Stan.  We He had kind of an emotional setback today, but hopefully it won't affect him for the long term.

PAGE FOUR NEWARK AIRPORT DANCE!!!!

Newark Airport of today is just amazing to me.  When I lived in New Jersey, and, later, when I would fly back to visit, it was still this nice little one-terminal airport; and whoever was picking me up was usually able to park write underneath the baggage area.

[George]

Well, it had to happen sometime...

Prop 8 - The Musical

But did it have to happen after the election?

It's creative, fun, convincing, and makes a great point.  But wouldn't it have been more effective a month ago?

This was so funny!  Thanks for posting it!

[TCB]

So far ttoday I have driven the Vixter and her friend to shcool, gone grocery shopping, put away the shopping, emptied and refilled the dishwasher, taken out the garbage, folded the clothes in the dryer and put the clothes from the washer into the dryer and started a new wash going

How did you manage to get in the dryer to fold the clothes?

[TCB]

On TV TOnight!

ABC - PUSHING DAISIES, PRIVATE PRACTICE, DIRTY SEXY MONEY
NBC - CHRISTMAS IN ROCKEFELLER CENTER. LIFE, LAW & ORDER
CBS - RUDOLPH, GRAMMY NOMINATIONS CONCERT, VICTORIA'S SECRET
FOX - SECRET MILLIONAIRE

Okay, I thought it said Grandma Nominations Concert - which might be a good idea!

So I was watching CITIZEN KANE last night, and something struck me as strange for the first time:  why is the butler, played by Paul Stewart, so eagerly money-grubbing and asking for a thousand dollars to talk to the reporter?  He's clearly been with Kane for a lengthy amount of time and Kane would not have been tight fisted with his employees' salaries. Surely the butler would have accumulated some personal wealth from his own income (even if we don't speculate what he could have purloined from Kane's vast and non-inventoried collection of treasures and antiquities.)  Why would this man be so opportunistic for such a petty amount?  Would Kane even have such a man in his close employ?

Just one of those things that make me go "Hmmm..."

Since you just watched the film, please remind me who is in the room with Kane when he dies, that hears him say "Rosebud?"

Well, cabin door has been closed, so I guess I'll shut off this here iPhone.

I guess you don't know about the "Airplane Mode" on the iPhone. 

On my last flight we were told to turn them OFF that airplane mode wasn't allowed either. hmmm

Oh, yeah, technically, you're supposed to turn them during take-off and landing, but, otherwise, once electronic devices are "cleared", then "Airplane Mode" should be allowed (on an iPhone, at least).

*Although, I do remember sitting next to a pilot once who had claimed a "jump seat".  He did not turn off his Blackberry - I could still tell that the screen was "lit"/on as he held it screen-down in his lap. 

Why were you looking at his lap?
