You're lucky! Usually Cruise Ships have lousy food which is why vacationers all lose weight.

Twenty years ago we took a Princess cruise & the food was amazing, we even purchased the cookbook.  Now if you want the same quality of food you need to eat at one of the 2 restaurants that have a surcharge.  The 2nd night on the ship, all dressed up for the evening, I didn't want to return to the dining room & the Crown Grill looked surprisingly empty & in we went.  We ate at the Italian restaurant for our anniversary & it was equally good.  There was a garlic flan appetizer that was amazing, and the pasta's...I wanted 2nds on those.  I could have skipped the desserts, only because they weren't my cup of tea.  After dessert they delivered an anniversary cake to the table which they kindly delivered to our cabin for consuming later.

Many of the evenings we ate at the buffet which was pretty decent.

I didn't realize until last night that one must purchase an additional piece of equipment to be able to instantly view/download movies from Netflix, but I happened to go to Amazon.com and saw that they have some free TV episodes that one can download for free and you only have to install their Unbox video player.  I downloaded the complete hi-def pilot episode of "Royal Pains."  I probably won't keep it for very long, since the hi-def version is 3 gigabytes...but you never know.


George, see my previous post!

Did you register your Facebook Username?

I thought we didn’t have to, only if we wanted to.  What happens if we don't, do we lose our current name?

I'm glad you weren't really mugged.


DR Jane - Nothing will happen if you don't register.  From what I understand - and from what I learned last night - it's a bigger issue for Companies and Celebrities - "people" that have "Fan Pages".  This way they can just say look us up on Facebook, and then all one would have to do is type in the company's name after "facebook.com/"

But some people also just want to be consistent from one "venue" to another: Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, Digg, Tumblr, etc.  This way their real name or their screenname can be used.  For example...

I'm not "JoseSPiano" here on HHW, Facebook and Twitter.

*Oh, and a correction from last night: 200,000 Usernames were registered in the first three MINUTES of the "stampede".  Thatsa lotta names.  -And a lotta people on their computers and iPhones.

**And I do know some people who "lost" their name.  There are a lots of "johnsmith"s out there. And I also know some people who took a username that may have been someone else's name.  -If that makes sense.

How do I look to see if someone took my name?

Good morning, all! Today is a hectic day: post office and pharmacy in a few minutes, luncheon with the Cast Recording List at noon. work all afternoon,dinner with my friend Darrel Karl at 6, then home and watch the episodes of BURN NOTICE and ROYAL PAINS I am taping this morning. I think this afternoon I'll work on the new score for Moross' BALLET BALLADS.

The meeting at the office went well yesterday, and side effects of it were a (hopefully) set date, depending on whether our liaison with the Library of Congress follows through, in DC in August to read through the score of LIFE BEGINS AT 8:40 and some possible work on Jim Dale's one-man show. I've been a fan since BARNUM, and he's been a delight whenever our paths have crossed in the past 30 years. I would love to do the show.




I agree.  Jim Dale's performance in BARNUM is one of my favorite memories of Broadway.  (in Barnum.  Hmm, I am sure that is the name of something.)

As for Cruise Ship food - The three ships that I've been on have had wonderful food.  Yes, there are "junk" options available, but I've always been pleasantly surprised by the quality of the "sit-down" food.

And while that silly theatre and its risers can take away your space and screw with your plans, they can't take away your story, your characters, and your songs -- so you may have lost one battle, but you're gonna win the war with great readings this coming week

LOL-I guess I could have done that from Facebook.  I didn't realize it would show me the availability.  It seems the 1 other person with my name hasn't rushed to grab it.  ;D
