TV is here, installed, Blu-Ray player is working and images are pretty incredible, although VERY different-looking than standard DVD. I'm sure I'll have to play with the settings and stuff, but more later.

The Professionals looks absolutely incredible - there does seem to be a bit of blurring on really fast motion shots, sort of a digital thing - the TV comes with a standard setting for the 120hz funtion - I tried the "smooth" setting, but it didn't seem any different, but maybe I'll test that out with this disc and see if it makes any difference.

That is a problem and I think Matt Hough can explain it better. I think it is a combination of the television and what bit rate the blu ray is mastered at

ASK BK

Now there is hi def mastering does that mean the Lucas' THX mastering certification of DVDs is a thing of the past?

Well, things are hopping in various corners of my livelihood, which is fantastic! They may lead to work or new projects.

I have been lethargic and pokey all day, so I think I'll take a Tylenol PM and go to bed quite soon.

Trust me, folks. It must make sense. Somehow.

I am so glad DR Sandra is not graduating from ASU today. Obama is the speaker, and Tempe is a mess. The light rail runs right through a corner of the campus, so it will be closed. No bottled water is allowed in the outdoor stadium. It is about 100F.

It sounds horrible.

I understand several folks have been taken to the ER, and the on-site medical aid tents are packed.

We are close enough to the airport that we saw Air Force One come in for a landing.

Jose, I am so glad that you are having such an unforgettable time on your trip. And it must be extra special that you can share it with your parents. I wish I could have seen the zip line videos, but they just sat there on my screen like so much fish!

You make a great tour guide, even as an armchair tour guide. I will try to do half as well in November on my Italy cruise.

A LATE ASK BK QUESTION

In Walter Willison's notes for the cd of Anya he writes: "Anyone who has the original LP is aware that the songs are numbered differently on the jacket from the label--complete titles are gone and new ones replaced them by the time teh actual LP was pressed"

I brought my copy of the LP back from Montreal and this is the first time I had a chance to look at it, but the song listings on the LP and the label are the same and they are the same order as on the cd release.

Did I get a rerelease where the made the corrections? (I find this hard to believe as the show was a bomb)

Do you have an explaination?

BTW the musical sources and the singers are supplied on the jacket.

Seems like everyone is having just too much fun today.

Really happy good moods.

I agree, Jose did have a really white knuckle grip on monkey.

Did somebody say Wild Turkey? - Liza Minnelli

Supposedly my dad gets to go home from the hospital tomarrow. I'm just going to shake my head if they let an 83 year old heart patient drive out of the parking lot. They did not think it weird that he drove there with congestive heart failure.

Sam · « **Reply #201 on:** May 13, 2009, 07:58:38 PM »

Wild Turkey, Janis Joplin.

Jrand73 · « **Reply #202 on:** May 13, 2009, 07:58:55 PM »

Loved the ZIP videos.....and DR GINNY that video you posted was quite amazing!

Such a day at HHW. We had a good rehearsal and high winds and flooding - so this has been an interesting Wednesday evening.

I am watching UFO HUNTERS, and will eventually watch a nice yet to be chosen DVD.

Congrats to DR JOSE on his milestone and to MR BK on becoming a member of the LED/Blu Ray generation.

MR BK my friend Adam - whom you've met before - is in LA until May 23rd if you are around for a lunch meeting and having a visitor at a work session or whatever. Let me know and I will pass the word along to him.
