When I finish that, I'm going to see if I have enough time to squeeze in STAR TREK IV tonight before watching LOST around 9:30. If I don't have time to watch it tonight, I'll watch the bonus features for IV tonight and watch the movie tomorrow morning. I'd like to get the review up tomorrow if possible.

I went for a walk in the yard & this is what I saw.

So.....Wild Turkey just grows out in your yard, eh!??!

Yup. We wish it weren't true & seeing 5 new ones didn't thrill us. It did, just the idea of more adults to chase away wasn't. The little ones were really cute. One had lagged behind & squealed while it ran to catch up.

I didn't have my camera & got that photo off of the internet.

Reading Blithe Spirit which is most enjoyable!

My question for ASK BK day....my first question:

What is your favorite Noel Coward play/musical? Have you ever appeared in a production written by said Coward - even if it is NOT your favorite?

I am not BK, nor have I played him on television; but I will also answer the question -- Because I can!

My favorite Noel Coward play is PRESENT LAUGHTER.

I have appreared in HAY FEVER, BLITHE SPIRIT, and PRESENT LAUGHTER (which happens to be my favorite).

Called Fry's at ten to one and was told they were going somewhere before me but that they'd be here before four. I said that was not what I was told when I bought the TV - I was told that I'd be first on their run at one and that I didn't have time to sit here from one to four without a definite ETA. But, as it turned out, they were planning to come here first, so I'm hoping they'll be here momentarily - not by one, I'm guessing, since it's almost one-thirty, but soon. There's really very little for them to do - just unbox, put the TV on its stand and hook up the Blu-Ray player directly to the TV via HDMI cable. Everything else will be done next Tuesday by my usual wiring guy.

Mine is about 30 years old.

How neat to have turkeys in your yard, Jane. I don't have anything that exciting.

Jane · « **Reply #127 on:** May 13, 2009, 01:38:47 PM »

DR Laura initially the turkeys were neat, now they just make a big mess & there are too many of them. The mother and her little ones are happily on the other side of the fence.

Nobody here but us chickens. I do hope these delivery people didn't say they were coming here first when they aren't - I do hope they understood what I was saying and not misunderstanding and thinking I understood that they'd be here before four. I do hope that or I will not be happy.

At six, I have to go finalize the last of the little fixes on the Kevin and Sean show. It shouldn't take more than fifteen minutes - he just wants to show me it's done.

Back from a lovelier than lovely Nashotah House alumni luncheon at

The Golden Mast Inn

In about 45 minutes, I'm going to take advantage of the hotel's HBO (which we don't have at home) and watch the Drew Barrymore/Jessica Lange version of Grey Gardens.

I think on the last page he mentioned BLACK NARCISSUS, ENCHANTED, and some others I can't remember.

I've read them all, including the one that was just released this spring. Love 'em, and want to find Patchin Place next time we're in NYC.

I just found out I'm also doing the BD STAR TREK movie set. Oy. I still haven't gotten the Poirots (9 feature length episodes). And I'm still finishing up two other reviews. So many movies, so little time.

And happy birthday, Julianne. I still laugh about the day you and Pogue were communicating on HHW from different rooms of your house.

And I am pretty sure there is a flying monkey in one of those Darna movies.

Jane · « **Reply #143 on:** May 13, 2009, 02:34:14 PM »

Ginny, so far I'm enjoying the book & expect I will eventually read them all. I haven't made it to Patchin Place yet. I've just recently arrived in the slums.

This is very cool. A few years ago, there was a demonstration here in Olympia and afterwards, people could take some of the sand as a memento in tiny vials that they provided.

And so he did, "The Wild Bunch" and "Body Heat" among them. For some reason, I didn't make the association that they were Blu-ray.

That's a fabulous talent those men possess. I wonder if they do cakes, too!

I know he's staying in city limits, but in some areas of the Philippines, the jungle and civilization coexist to such an extent that wild monkeys routinely invade homes and pilfer whatever they can.

I've rather enjoyed a mental picture I created of Monkey meeting one of those wild monkeys. But, alas....in Manila, it's unlikely to happen, I guess.

Well... Apparently there are some wild monkeys at Villa Escudero, so... We shall see.
