I watched SOUTHLAND while I ate lunch. I still can't stand the characters of Sammy and Tami, but thankfully, they weren't playing a major part in last week's show.

Then I watched THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN GUN on Blu-ray. Like the other Bonds in HD, it looks wonderful, and Lowry has done a good digital clean-up job (some old clips in the documentaries show how lousy it used to look). The sound was most impressive since they started with a mono source. Some very good surround sound design for the DTS-HD MA track. (The original mono is also included.)

When it was over, I started on the massive set of bonus features. I got 7 of the featurettes and documentaries watched, but I know there is more to come. The documentary on Bond stuntmen is next on the docket.

Now I must hop off-line so I can start writing. Then it's back downstairs for more work and play-related viewing.

*Of course, my parents have already seemed to adjust back to their "normal" schedule. But, then again, since they're retired, their "normal" schedule is well... I guess it's more like my currently "between gigs" schedule.

Just got a gander at NBC's fall schedule. Sad to say, MEDIUM has been let go

I'm shocked, and after what may have been the shows best season.

Me, too! I love(d) this show.

There IS internet chatter that CBS is seriously considering picking "Medium" up.

Hoo and Ray!!

As for the Topic of the Day...

Well... Now that that the first season is finally coming out later this year - with all the music (rights) intact - I'd have to take "thirtysomething" with me. -Although, DVDMediaUniverse seems to carry a complete set -

Other candidates for my DIDVDs...

"Six Feet Under"

Here's a link: Ain't It Cool News is speculating that CBS, which produces "Medium", may pair it up with "Ghost Whisperer" on Friday nights.

I'd love to see these two pair up!

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #133 on:** May 19, 2009, 02:32:02 PM »

I've cleared two HUGE hurdles in the workplace today. Just finished up, actually.

There is one to go...bigger than both of the ones just completed. It's complex, but it's taking its time.

Nevertheless, come Friday I ain't coming in to work.

If the show had been canceled at the end of last season I would not have been all that disappointed. I am it has at least one more season.

Did DAW present a note to anyone excusing him from posting for the rest of the day?

I note his last post was just after 9:30 a.m.

Do you suppose that mandatory survey has him holed up in his study?

DR elmore3003, did you see the McGlinn obit in the current issue of Opera News?

Also - have you considered wearing a surgical mask over at his apartment? It might help relieve some of the dust symptoms.

etc., etc., etc...

So... Now my mom wants to email some of the pictures she took in the Philippines to her friends in the Philippines... Of course, she's never attached any sort of file an email before... And then when I "reminded" her that some of the people she'll be sending the pictures/files to may not have high-speed connections... Then I thought that maybe I should set up a Picasa or Flickr account... But since she still needs to go the through the 600 pictures she took... Well...

I think I need some chamomile tea right now...

Or some scotch.

If any DR was thinking of getting Seasons 1 and 2 on Blu-Ray, you may want to check out Amazon's Gold Box Deal of the Day today.

*This week's Gold Box selections are TV-themed.

I need to take a break from the computer, except for email, and get some work done around here. Maybe I'll take a month off & find out what I can accomplish. It is Spring when I seem to have the most energy.
