Do any of you folks have photo radar on your streets and freeways? Or is this something that is unique to Arizona?

Except thanks for the vibes, especially for my dear Bailey! I'm hoping the specialist will have a solution that doesn't involve surgery.

Good morning, all! Such a morning it's been! After sleeping too late, i had to deal with a long telephone conversation about a project that's currently not moving in any direction and the whys and wherefores.

I have one last group of receipts to tally for tomorrow's IRS session, more edits for BABES, and maybe some work on SPRING IS HERE. Yesterday, another job landed. so that's good.

DR Dan(the Man), I was at the FOLLIES IN CONCERT, and once I realized it was about the performers and not the score - meaning the recordng would be the same - I could care less. Mr Patinkin's one-man masturbatory "Buddy's Blues" was the nadir for me, and when at the end Barbara Cook as Sally made the comment about how glad she was she came, I thought "Sally Durant Plummer is no longer the unhappy deluded lady of the original; I've been robbed!"

Good morning!

I woke up to some snow and ice on the ground! It's very cold but the snow is evaporating away as I type.

RE: last night's AMERICAN IDOL

I am sort of getting annoyed at how many people they are not showing.

There are some (who will surely be in the top 36) who are getting ridiculous amounts of airtime. And there are many who have still never been seen.

I know with 2 weeks of Hollywood auditions being shown we will most likely get to see everyone. But i just find it quite unfair.  Don't they understand that people pick their favorites early. And they need to show all the good ones, not just a few who will have a ridiculous advantage.

I don't think they do this but i wish we could see all 160 people singing last night (on their website).

So it looks like I'll be doing Spike Lee's MIRACLE AT ST. ANNA on Blu-ray this afternoon. After doing a 45-minute short feature yesterday for my work assignment, Lee's movie is 160 minutes! Yikes! I'll be on this all day up until the time I start watching back some recorded shows.

I have a question for the library workers here (or even people who use the library a lot).

Is it common to cut up little paperbacks?

My sister's library takes their small paperbacks and cuts off the front and back and glues it on to this hard covered frame.

Now it obviously makes the books last a lot longer. But it just seems so wrong to me to cut up books.

RE IDOL:

Hopefully with the group numbers tonight, we'll hear more singing but thinking to years past, that wasn't the case either, so I just don't know. The manufactured "drama" of people having meltdowns shown on-camera is old and unappealing. Oh, I don't doubt the singers' sincerity. I'm sure the pressure is enormous. But the camera going in close to get all of the emotional collapses is not entertaining to me.

It's common in bookstores to return overstock paperbacks by tearing off the covers and returning only the covers for credit.

Yes, DR Elmore, those are two reasons of many of why FOLLIES IN CONCERT is one of my least favored, seldom played recordings (actually, the STAVISKY score does get played and is the only part of the set that's loaded on my iPod.)

I believe I repeatedly offered to help you with some transfers in days of yore, but, noooooo, you preferred DAW.  But I'm not bitter, oh, no, I'm not bitter.   ;D

Oh, and TODAY IN THEATRE HISTORY...

Thorton Wilder's OUR TOWN opened today in 1938 at the Henry Miller Theatre. 

To celebrate, don't forget your rubbers!

After reading the symptoms of salmonella in this morning's paper, I'm thinking that may indeed may have been what I had a week or so ago.  Though I can't for the life of me figure out where I got the peanuts, as that is not a regular part of my diet.
