Another visit to the doggie park today. It will probably be my last for a while, as I will be moving again.

DR elmore I hope the potential buyer turns out to be legit.  Congrats on your brothers waking up to reality.

Remember, one's married to a very sensible and wonderful lady but the other jerk's married to Lady Macbeth and she's pure evil.

Today is going to be a long rehearsal day.  I have to be at the theater at noon for a mic fitting.  Then from 2:00 to 4:00 is a sitzprobe, then a two hour break, and then first dress rehearsal from 6:00 to 10:45 (we are doing the Eugene O'Neil version of GUYS AND DOLLS).

Could be worse: you could be doing the Des McAnuff disaster.

Happy Happy Birthday, FJL...or should I say my long-lost "Dad"?



Case!  What a brief, but pleasant surprise.


Too long errant and truant have I been.  So, now with all the First Nudie stuff going on, I figured now is as good a time as any to start reintegrating myself.

I heard you were dead!

Well, I've had a bit of leftover pizza for lunch and I'm back to "The Cardinal." What a beautiful score! I should buy the DVD at some point.

So, DR Nursie, about LITTLE DORRIT: didn't you love the cast? Tom Courtenay's last two appearances as the ridiculous and vain Mr Dorrit broke my heart, and I loved John, the turnkey's son, whose last scenes were really painful for me. I thought the scene in which he told Arthur that Amy loved him was really wonderful. And Judy Parfitt, what a great actress. I also liked the actor who played Amy's uncle and the actress who played her vain trampish sister.

DR JOSE is in Chicago.

Loved the pic of Sherlock and his progenitor.

And the story of DR FRANCOIS and the French Disneyland.

Today is of course a workday.  Oh well.

Thank you much!

A little correction though:

I never worked at the "French Disneyland" ...

It was all at Walt Disney World, in your neck of the woods! :D

What a coincidence!  The same thing happened to my birthday gift for DR FJL - a box o' fruity snacks.

Good morning everyone, or I suppose good afternoon.

Will try to read the last 2 days (or maybe 3 days) of posts as the day goes by.

A song for FJL's birthday:

Happy birthday to Fred.
There's a cat on your head.
No, wait, he's on my head.
Happy birthday to Fred.


I wrote it myself.

And it shows!! ;)

Back from errands and my designer's.  Re the topic o' the day - I said "chilling" murders, not brutal or violent murders only.  For example, and SPOILER AHEAD - in Wait Until Dark when Richard Crenna gets it you see NOTHING and yet it is so unexpected it's completely chilling.

for the topic of the day.

In my early 20's I lived in Glendale.  One morning leaving for work, I opened the front door to find a murdered teenager on our front lawn. Because I made the call to the police, both our house in Glendale and the house we moved to in Burbank was searched by the detectives.  One of the neighbors said we did it, that we had wild parties all the time.  Turned out that it was a drug murder committed somewhere else, and they just dumped the body where we lived.  The detectives in Glendale and Burbank were just wonderful the whole time.  They had to do their job and I never even questioned anything they needed to do.  

Now I watch movie murders with a different view, I have to remind myself they are not real.

Trying to upload some Quicktime videos to YouTube - does it usually take so long?  I mean, it's a four-minute clip.

Is it possible I saw Wait Until Dark at the Cinerama Dome ?   Boy, do I remember that scene.  The theatre was complete dark, and I was scared.

I just put the three clips into iTunes - each took approximately five seconds, whereas uploading one to YouTube has so far taken fifteen minutes and isn't even halfway through.  What gives?

This wasn't a murder, but it was a violent, shocking death scene.

I think the film was called DEEP BLUE SEA.  It's a shark movie.

SPOILER:

Samuel L. Jackson, ostensibly the guy who is going to save the day, is talking to a group of people, when this huge shark suddenly leaps up out of a tank and devours him in one quick swallow.

Yes, Larry, I showed  Anthony Who Shall Rule... He is extremely happy and can't wait to take it out of the jacket and slip it onto the turntable.

He's busy getting his life back in order here in the city and he wants to savor listening to the record so he hasn't put it on yet.

I spent part of the day cleaning the bathroom.

It turned out to be a nice day here after all. The weather reports have mentioned rain and drizzly cold weather but it's sunny (off and on) and nice.

We went to Bed, Bath and Beyond and bought a new whistling tea kettle and St. Ives Apricot Facial Scrub.

We will have a baked potato, sliced chicken and spinach for dinner.

We may watch something on the DVD after dinner but we don't know what we will watch.

I think the painting of Joanne Woodward is in Sleuth.

And billed as Eve Channing in the opening credits.

Why does it take five seconds to import a quick time movie into iTunes and one hour to import the same thing to YouTube???

I watched the Liza Minnelli episode on the Biography-HD channel while lunch was cooking.Stupid people ought to know by now you can't show standard definition material and merely stretch it across the screen and have it look worth a crap.

I was too busy cheering the death of the leading lady. You were doing the audience a favor.
