Did I mentioned that the CHEETAH GIRLS: ONE WORLD movie on Blu-ray arrived today? Anyway, that'll be my work disc for tomorrow.

WOW! Your sense of anticipation and excitement is palpable.

Glad you noticed.

Had a delightful evening of quality entertainment.

I began by watching two episodes of BONES including the one where she managed to get her father free of a murder rap. Wonderful episode.

The next BONES episode was the one featuring Ace Young as the murdered vocalist, and the insane stalker who fell for Booth and was wildly jealous of Temperance.

After that, I fired up the HD-DVD machine using my universal remote (working perfectly) and watched THE THING. Even though I had seen the movie all those years ago and remembered some of its terrors, it still managed to make me jump a couple of times. I enjoyed seeing it again even if the sound mix greatly dated the production. The surrounds would have been much more active if this could have been made today.

I concluded my evening of entertainment by watching DESK SET, a movie I always enjoy. Since I had the HD-DVD machine running, I put the DVD in it and let that machine upconvert it.

Does anyone use a webcam for work or pleasure?

I think I've mentioned this before...

When I went on the road with Anything Goes I bought webcams for myself and Steve. They enabled us to say, "Goodnight" to each other face-to-face each night. The software also had some great webcam games - basketball, pop-the-bubbles, etc. - and those really came in handy when we had a layover in a "less exciting" city.

My mom has a webcam. Whenever I ask her about she never answers me.

DR Druxy, I like the old one-not that I could tell what the new one looked like

Yeah, but the new one made me look 20 years younger.

$:-\$

I've been invited to guest on the Michael Dresser radio show at 11:30 pm (PST) Tuesday (9) night to discuss my book, ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD: From the Secret Files of Harry Pennypacker.

The show airs in 40 different markets, so if you get a chance, please listen. It should be fun.

First off, thanks to the vixter for the update, and continued excellent vibes and xylophones to vixmom.

I had a fsbulously fabulous dinner at the Smoke House. The restaurant wasn't very busy tonight, but Garry Marshall was there. I was actually a very good boy - I had the combo Louis, did not overdo the dressing AT ALL, had less than a half-cup of clam chowder, and five pieces (they are very small) of the garlic cheese bread - no cake. The garlic cheese bread is like the bread on a foot-long Subway sandwich - but only half - the top and bottom half of half a footlong, cut into seven small pieces. So, of the top half of the half I had five of those seven pieces, so I didn't feel like I overdid it. Anyway, it was faboo. And here's a picture of the garlic cheese bread that was left:

You can see that the small piece in the middle left is about the size of each of the five pieces I ate - no one ate the two large end pieces that you see.

bk · « **Reply #321 on:** December 08, 2008, 09:40:13 PM »

The bread was also in focus, which is more than I can say for the photograph.

Other wonderful thing: I got an early copy of season two volume one of The Mod Squad - O joy! I'll be back with Pete, Julie, and Linc very soon.

But for tonight I'm enjoying listening to CDs. Now playing is the delicious Johnny Williams soundtrack to How To Steal A Million - first CD has the soundtrack album in total. Second CD has the actual film tracks PLUS (and this is a dream come true) Williams' first film score for Fox, my beloved Bachelor Flat. I've had the raw tracks from this for some time, but they were not great sounding - apparently Michael Mattesino has done a masterful job in cleaning them up.

OK... Me sleepy... I've already been doing the whole head-nodding thing for the past hour or so, so...

Goodnight.

Busy day, so just catching up, and now it's time to go to sleep

A lull.

BK, I hope you had a great birthday today!

George · « **Reply #328 on:** December 08, 2008, 11:58:33 PM »

Earlier today, I helped my sister put up some strings of lights at my sister's house. It was easy to do, so it didn't take very long.

And since we're so close...
