I was trying to check bravotv.com or tvguide.com to see if top chef was going over tonight. For some reason neither of these sites will load for me.

But I do see there is a reunion show scheduled for next week.

DR Jennifer - Tonight's Finale (Part 2) of "Top Chef: New York" (which is being held in New Orleans) is only supposed to run an hour - 10:00pm-11:00pm - tonight.

*And I might be heading up to DC this afternoon to watch the show tonight with Spike and company at "Good Stuff Eatery".

BK, Jose, JMK, Matthew and anyone else who might be able to help: My brother and his fiancee decided they want the Vixter to sing at tehir wedding. The song they have chosen is One Hand, One Heart from West Side Story. I pointed out that this was a duet, but they want her to sing it as a solo

Have you ever seen an arrangment of One Hand One Heart to be sung as a solo? Where could I even start looking for such a thing?

Good news from DR VIXMOM and greetings from my MAC computer - which I am using today.

I saw REVOLUTIONARY ROAD and thought it was very dark, but I did enjoy the performances. Then i saw THE READER which made REVOLUTIONARY ROAD look like ENCHANTED.....

To BK, re how a title can be shipped that has nothing to do with the title ordered:

Many times, the titles have nothing to do with how the orders are filled. Instead, an order number is used by the warehouse.

If a couple of numbers get transposed, it is easy for someone working in the warehouse to fill an order with the wrong item. Easy peasey.

Of course, it would help if the warehousemen were to cross-check the number with the title being ordered. And easy peasey. But that would require someone at the warehouse level taking the time to care about what they are doing. Sorry, I don't work at every store, nor at every warehouse. This wouldn't have happened on my shift.

I hope you get the title you originally ordered, without too much fuss. At least you're getting a freebie, which is a good thing... I hope.

...Or there could have been a error in the catalog or internet listing, thus causing the "wrong/right" item to pulled. Easey peasey.

*It's been a couple of years, but I still remember checking in an incoming order from Hal Leonard at the music store. For some reason, we received a number of copies of a rather obscure piece of music. It turned out that there was an error in the new catalog: one catalog number ended up getting assigned to three different items. Spoo! Thankfully, our sales rep - who worked next to the warehouse - was able to personally verify the "error" by heading into the warehouse himself and checking the shelf stock. Easey peasey.

You're welcome, DR JRand! There should be some sort of "cheat sheet" under the Help -> Mouse, or in the System Preferences.

I am alsso please to announce that when I saw my radiologist this morning he said I was making very good progress. My voice is starting to come back a little and he is sending me to a speech and swallowing therapist to teach me how to eat and talk again.

Hooray for the good news! Are you allowed to hum to yourself? I remember reading somewhere that humming was very good therapy for people with throat problems.

And THE SWALLOWING THERAPIST must be the title of your next short story.

I believe there is a solo version out there - and I've heard it sung as a solo before.

Otherwise, just buy the vocal selections - although, "One Hand, One Heart" is also published as a "single sheet" too. If you don't have a local music store, just look on Amazon.com, SheetMusicPlus.com or SheetMusicDirect.com. -You can download and transpose the music from SheetMusicDirect.com.

If you are able to browse at a local music store, you might want to check out some Wedding Music Collections too.

DR MattH, i am 99% sure that AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL is not debuting this week. I think they delayed it one week.

Also LOST is going over by 6 minutes to 10:06pm! (listed in my tv and tv guide).

Weird! I just double-checked this with Tivo. What are those six minutes for?

I hope it's not for one of those LOST UNTANGLED clips...

I don't know yet but I have just been scheduled to meet with the therapist this Friday morning so I will find out.

I have suddenly had a great interest in cooking again - (I'm not doing any but I am thinking about it a lot) maybe making those lunches for Vixdad and the Vixter has rekindled my thoughts of food.

I did try some chicken noodle soup two days ago (I just made a Lipton Cup-a-Soup)

I am please to announce it did indeed taste like chicken soup but I was only able to manage about 3 or 4 tablespoons. It was too much hard work swallowing.

I also tried oatmeal, I only managed two spoonfuls there. My gingerale is tasting like gingerale again. I tried a sip of tea the other day but it tasted "wrong" - I probably should be staying away from caffinated pproducts anyway.

I suppose I will stop experimenting now until I meet teh therapist on Friday and see what she says. Better off being careful and not doing myself any harm

I no longer have the published WEST SiDE STORY vocal selections, but I believe it's published there as a solo. Check with a musc shop in your area. It's surely published as a solo sheet as well.

As elmore said earlier, The Cat And The Canary DVD turns out to have been a gift from him - thanks elmore! I didn't look at the invoice - I rarely do - because I'd ordered Ran and it's due exactly now I just made the assumption it was wrong. Too late to alert amazon.uk as they shipped the replacement this morning - so, I'll have two Rans, or an also Ran.
