I gotta give Cheney credit for working the crowd to boost the sales.

Good Morning! Good Afternoon!

101 down, another 83 or so to go. -For me, that is. #184-250 are acting only. After which, I shall walk down to The Cupboard for a proper, sit-down, non-rushed lunch.

We are only seeing singing Hitlers today....dancing Hitlers are tomorrow!

Today's expected temperature - 44 degrees C. Strong winds - a recipe for bush fires. The state is tinder dry and ready to explode. We are on high alert.

I know first hand how scary that is.

STAY SAFE VIBES!

Yes, DR JMK - how hard could it be to locate an American Weekly newspaper supplement from 51 years ago....come on, people!

BTW - DR MATTHEW got his INNER CITY electronically so the disk coming to you is ALL yours.

Anyone else wanted an unsplit digital copy and can spend some time downloading the large files....send me your email and I will send you the links.

But it didn't entertain me......it was kind of an IN THE HEIGHTS meets GOOD TIMES thing.

My trip to Kroger was very strange, starting with my least favorite deli clerk. She barely acknowledges the customer and never, never asks, "Is there anything else you need?" Then an old guy got in the check out line behind me with one item and pushed the clerk to ring him up before my transaction was complete. The coup de grace, though, was finding a hand-written note on my windshield, complimenting me for driving a Pontiac Vibe, voted one of the safest small cars. The note also has some anti-import, buy-American content that I suppose one should expect living in a redneck steel town.

Must be the Venus opposition to Uranus.

Oh my gosh!!!! I just got a beautiful card from Ginny!!!!! Thank you so much!!!!! And thank you for the i-tunes gift card also!!!! I really love the heart design on it!!!!! That was really kind of you to think of me, so thanks again!!!!!!

And speaking of me being on, HAPPY EARLY VALENTINES DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mom might have been on already, but I don't know... she's been feeling a little better now, and she's been moving around. That bell is still a big help to her though, so thanks for that again, I don't really mind it that much anymore. I'm hopeing her voice and taste buds come back soon, and when they do, I have two things to do:
1) Buy her a LOT of orange juice
2) Get Skip to make her those eggs she loves and send them here. (Just kidding Skip, but she still loves them)

And, that's pretty much it. So, valentines wishes to all, and I'll hopefully be on again soon!!!

love,

Vixter

GOOD TIMES -- the musical!

It's what Broadway needs now!

[sigh] I wish I had some spare moments to spend as part of the MADDING CROWD or in a ROLLS-ROYCE. Alas, I must continue with my multifaceted trips to the world of the occult in FRIDAY THE 13th - THE SERIES.

DEEP THROAT - THE MUSICAL (and not about Nixon!)

Matt H. · « **Reply #162 on:** February 06, 2009, 01:25:05 PM »

I did receive two additional Blu-ray discs to add to my ever-growing review stack: HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL 3 and the original HIGH SCHOOL MUSIC (Remix Edition).

I'm actually looking forward to to seeing them. I like the characters and am anxious to see where their stories take them. The second one looked spectacular in high def, and since the movie is obviously going to have superior production values to the two made-for-cable movies, it should look even better.

But they are far down the stack of discs to be watched.

Matt H. · « **Reply #163 on:** February 06, 2009, 01:27:38 PM »

I watched BURN NOTICE while I ate lunch. Wonderful episode with the always appealing Joel Gretch as "The Client."

If NBC had a brain in its head, it would take this series away from its sibling network USA and put it on NBC.

Hiya, Vixter! Glad to hear you are taking good care of your mom. I know taking care of moms can be difficult. I've done it.

Matt H. · « **Reply #165 on:** February 06, 2009, 01:29:31 PM »

I did get 4 1/2 episodes of FRIDAY THE 13th watched. The first one was a continuation of the first season finale and by far my least liked episode of the ones I've watched.

The one I'm in the middle of now is a blatant rip-off of PHANTOM OF THE OPERA except the Phantom is a symphony violinist who has his own "Christine Daae."

And I had to do it at your age, truly not easy.

I'm sorry I missed you.

Last night I fell asleep while watching Hammer/Columbia's THE TWO FACES OF DR. JECKYLL. . .so it's still in my dvd player.
I've watched YENTL twice, once actually listening to the commentary (something I don't really normally do except in rare instances). . .

I've listened to ALLEGRO twice since it arrived.
I've been working on listening to WORKING ON A DREAM, the latest from Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band.

I'm reading Wally Lamb's THE HOUR I FIRST BELIEVED, which seems to be about Columbine.

That's the one! In terms of ratings, I think they'll live to regret this decision. It WILL save them a buttload of money, of course.

I did manage to skim through today's AS THE WORLD TURNS. Luke and Noah were on having a ridiculous squabble about moving into their own apartment. Argh! And they're in the previews for next week too with what looks to be the start of the murder mystery plot.

Now, I have some computer maintenance chores to tend to and then I'll hop downstairs to pick back up with the little shop of horrors where FRIDAY THE 13th - THE SERIES takes place.

I just heard from Anthony. He is in Indiana. He has decided to go the whole way to Chicago. He's about 2 hours away from Destination 1. He was filling up at a gas station. He said the weather in PA and OH has been beautiful. He took off his coat it was so warm in the car. It's still light out (it's 4pm where he is) and he's wide awake. He pulled off at a rest stop and took a nap earlier so he thinks just driving through to Chicago is the best way to go.

Jane · « **Reply #173 on:** February 06, 2009, 02:27:08 PM »

It sounds like Ant has a good plan. He can always pull off & spend the night someplace if the weather changes. I show it is a little hazy in North Chicago (where Bryan is), otherwise nice. Napping when he was tired was very smart. Continued travel vibes!

Ginny it was so kind of you to think of us- and what a perfect day for your cards to arrive , I really was feeling blue. Thank you so much, and that was very generous of you sending the Vixter that ITunes card, she is over the moon!
