Good Evening!

Well, I had dinner in the Dining Car. It was... OK. At least it was nice to have a hot meal instead of the apples and granola I brought with me. If you'd like the details or pics just check out my Facebook page or my Twitter/TwitPic timeline: http://www.twitter.com/josespiano

In the Dining Car, I ended up sitting at a table with a filmmaker from New York. It turned out that he was one of the guys who filmed the closing film montages for the original Broadway production of RENT, as well as for all the Equity tours. He also worked on both Hillary Clinton's and Barack Obama's presidential campaign. In fact, he was one of the lead camera guys and editors for now-President Obama's 30-minute infomercial. Very cool!

*Alas, he's heading up to Syracuse too meet his girlfriend.

I need to get my eyes checked. It's been more than two years. $:-\$

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #156 on:** April 30, 2009, 07:30:24 PM »

Well, I think I'm going to head back to my seat - I've been hanging out in the café car - and give my eyes a rest. It's only 10:30, but I'm already a bit sleepy. -Must be the "lulling" of the train. I may or may not check back in tonight, which has more to do with whether or not the train is in a good Edge or 3G service area than anything else. So, just in case I don't get to it later...

Goodnight.

Well, I'm leaving also. Tonight is the Dining Out For Life night:

Quote

Dining Out For Life® is an annual fundraising event involving the generous participation of volunteers, corporate sponsors and restaurants. In exchange for their financial support, restaurants are listed in a city wide marketing campaign in an effort to increase customer traffic.

In 1991 Dining Out For Life® was created by an ActionAIDS volunteer in Philadelphia. Dining Out is now produced in over 55 cities throughout the United States and Canada. An average five to six cities are added each year.

More than 3,500 restaurants donate a portion of their proceeds from this one special night of dining to the licensed agency in their city. Nearly $4 million dollars a year is raised to support the missions of agencies throughout North America. With the exception of the annual licensing fee of $600, all money raised in these cities stays there.

So, I'm off to dine and help raise money!

But I hope I can live to see how this all wraps up.

Wuz you thinkin' of goin' somewhere?

You're right: life is tenuous, and sometimes we have that cruelly reminded to us. A writer for the local newspaper I've been reading for a long, long time died on Tuesday. He was 50.

Kind of sobering.

I was going to mention this later, but I might as well mention it now. John Cunningham had replaced Bert Convy in CABARET when I saw it in NYC in 1968, and when I saw him in that COMPANY album documentary, I was reminded how gorgeous he was as a young man. Now, to have him as Stritch's "boy toy" on 30 ROCK tonight, it was eerie.

I've had a busy, busy night. I began by watching THE WRESTLER, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I liked MILK and DOUBT both better (the only other non-animated award contenders I've yet seen from 2008), but it's still a very well made film, one that held my attention throughout. I was glad it wasn't any longer than 109 minutes. That was the perfect length for the story it had to tell.

Matt H. · « **Reply #162 on:** April 30, 2009, 08:41:07 PM »

There were only three bonus features on the disc, and I watched all of them. One was a wrestlers' round table with a bunch of pro wrestlers I used to watch back in the 80s wheen they all had the bodies of gods: Lex Lugar, Brutus Beefcake, Dallas Page, Roddy Piper, Greg Valentine, and the moderator asked them interesting and intelligent questions.

Much more enjoyable feature than I thought it was going to be.

Matt H. · « **Reply #163 on:** April 30, 2009, 08:42:19 PM »

Then I watched tonight's UGLY BETTY. How wonderful to have it back, and I enjoyed it very much. Some telegraphed plot events that weren't surprising, but I still found it very entertaining.

Matt H. · « **Reply #164 on:** April 30, 2009, 08:43:36 PM »

GREY'S ANATOMY had another perfectly wonderful episode. The show is back to its former glory, I think. Once they got Izzie's trouble identified, things have really begun to fall into place for the show.

Matt H. · « **Reply #165 on:** April 30, 2009, 08:45:11 PM »

Ordinarily I would have watched BONES next, but since I needed to write the review of THE WRESTLER, I took the chance to watch tonight's 30 ROCK and save myself some time. A funny episode for a change.

I'll watch BONES tomorrow while I eat lunch.

Matt H. · « **Reply #166 on:** April 30, 2009, 09:04:57 PM »

Well, I'm having a hard time keeping my eyes open (it is part midnight), so I'm heading downstairs to bed.

Good night!

I agree completely

I am not completely understanding why we're on page six and why we've been on page six and seven for the last many days. Just who is errant and truant and causing this nauseating state of affairs?

George · « **Reply #169 on:** April 30, 2009, 11:44:12 PM »

I got home in time to watch (live) the season finale of "Private Practice," and now I'm watching "Ugly Betty." I'll watch "Grey's Anatomy" right after that.

Just wanted to say goodnight.

Only had a chance to skim through the posts, will read tomarrow after work.

Yea, it's almost Friday and the weekend.

I'm really exhausted.

Hello, night owl George.

Pleasant Friday.

BK, about LACC.

I'm sooooo sorry.

P.S. thanks to everyone for the congrats on my new status.

Hi, Sam.

George · « **Reply #176 on:** May 01, 2009, 12:08:06 AM »

So, today before work, I went to the county courthouse to pay my property taxes for the whole year (thank you income tax refund!). For people who didn't have their paperwork, they had a table in the hall where they would print your statement and you could just drop off the payment in a box or you could go into the office and have the payment applied right then. I chose to just drop off my payment in the box and leave to go to work. Then, I went to work and all was right with the world...or so I thought!

George · « **Reply #177 on:** May 01, 2009, 12:09:35 AM »

I got a call from my mom saying that she just paid the first half of my parents' taxes and did the same thing (got the statement in the hall and just dropped off the payment). However...she thought that they accidentally printed MY statement (both my dad and I are named George) and that she my paid half of my taxes AGAIN! She called and the person she spoke to said that no, they didn't make a mistake (of course

), but my mom eventually explained and finally they said that there wouldn't be a problem. But my mom will still have to go back to the courthouse on Monday. What a hassle...and it's THEIR fault.

George · « **Reply #178 on:** May 01, 2009, 12:10:07 AM »

But my parents won't get a fine for paying late, because it was not my mom's fault.

George · « **Reply #179 on:** May 01, 2009, 12:10:23 AM »

And since we're so close...
