Mum is now watching THE YELLOW ROLLS ROYCE upconverted onto her 50+ teevee. . .I love the score.

I love the score, too. I love the movie. I haven't had time to watch the new DVD but maybe some day.

And a final quote for the day from one of my favorite movies, AN UNMARRIED WOMAN:

"Balls!" said the Queen.  "If I had them, I'ld be King."

I got finished with the bonus features on HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL 3. I wish there had been more rehearsal footage as they had on the Blu-ray for the second one. There was some, but as a dancer, I find it SO interesting watching the numbers come together.

There were two different ways you could watch the bonuses, and one way also allowed you to find some Easter eggs on the disc that took you to behind-the-scenes stuff, outtakes, and other goodies.

I had time to watch a couple of things befoire my shows began. First I watched another episode of MOONLIGHT from the box set. This was episode 3, the one about the older professor who created a new vampire and then left him to fend for himself (strictly against vampire etiquette). Wonderful episode.

Yes, DB, as Jose thought, the list was for items that had been purchased previously--like, months previously, which I really appreciated.

I had the LP of YELLOW ROLLS ROYCE.  I got it sealed for 49 cents at Val-U-Mart in Bellevue, Washington when I was a kid.

Others more cognizant of recordings may have known this already, but I heard a delicious song tonight that I instantly knew was a Bergman lyric, though I had never heard it before, being sung, more or less, by a pleasant enough baritone.  It turns out that Alan Bergman recorded a Verve CD!  Who knew?

I didn't have enough time to watch HOBSON'S CHOICE, but I DID have time to watch the primary bonus feature on the disc (other than the commentary), a 44-minute BBC documentary on Charles Laughton. Very well done with interesting speakers and very forthright about his homosexuality.

'24' tonight had another thrilling episode with breakneck pacing and nail-biting tension. They're on a roll with the story thus far this season.

Loved tonight's MEDIUM, much more than last week's episode. The ending was, as DR Elmore said, very entertaining.

So, here is case where the company maintaining a record of your purchases might be to your advantage.

I started watching Fort Saganne and lasted about thirty minutes - great Philippe Sarde score, but the film is not engaging me at all - and Miss Deneuve has yet to make an appearance.

I'm hungry.  I split some buffalo wings and some tex-mex rolls at lunch, and that's not that much to eat for a whole day.

I just watched "Chuck."  Even though it was a repeat, I'd never seen it before.  Very informative.  I'm now watching "Heroes" and then "Medium" will be on.  It's a very good night for TV, tonight. ;D

Had some potato salad and some seafood salad.  Not too much of each.

Good Evening!

The steak dinner was very good.  It was held at the hotel's restaurant, The Memphis Belle, so I didn't set my expectations too high, but I was very pleasantly surprised.  And since the conference was over, it was also a chance for all of us to talk about our "favorites" - including "no pants dancer boy".  ??? ;)

*Oh, and the featured dessert tonight was also very good: Deep-Fried Snickers Bar.  :)

After dinner, I headed up to the lobby/bar area to catch up with some friends and do a little schmoozing.  And since someone offered to buy me a drink, well...

So, I'm all set to head to airport in the morning...

So, until the morning...

Thanks again for all the Travel Vibes.  -Which I may end up needing if the storms forecasted for tomorrow actually come to fruition.

And...

Goodnight.

Hey everyone that is still awake!  I'm still here cranking out the arrangements for Anything Goes, someday I'll be done.  What the band read last night seemed to work well, just a few more things to go for now.  I'm hoping to finish soon as my "reward" for finishing this project is that I'll allow myself to open my new Nintendo Wii, which I got on sale!!!  Maybe by the weekend....

I laughed a lot at the finish of MEDIUM. I found both it and THE CLOSER quite interesting tonight.

I really enjoyed the ending of "Medium."  Payback's a bitch. ;D
