I did NOT get any USPS mail today! Argh! What a day!

I'm heading downstairs and hopefully to bed. I hope sleep comes easily because I could certainly use some.

Good night!

OK - I have to make sure I get up "early" again tomorrow morning, so...

Goodnight.

ASK BK

According to Arthurian legend Harvey Schmidt and Tom Jones wrote over 100 songs that were not used in 110 In the Shade? If so, how many of these have you actually heard or know about?

I know you recorded quite a few of these numbers (about 6 I think)

They did, and I believe I've not only heard them all, but have them all on various cassettes. And I think we've recorded over six, but I might be wrong.

Oh...

So, after DR elmore and I parted ways on the corner of 82nd & Broadway, I actually decided to go ahead and walk up to 85th Street to see the shuttered La Cocina for myself... $:-\$

On the way back down Broadway, I stopped into the newly opened location Corner Cafe & Bakery - which is not related to the national chain, The Corner Bakery. Outside, they had a whole bunch of dinner specials listed, but I also noticed that they had a bakery case, and it turned out that they have a very nice prepared foods case. Well...

Since I had planned to walk back down Broadway to Columbus Circle, I decided to pick up a Blueberry Lemonade to sip while I walked. They are "shelved" with no ice, but once you order it, they put ice in it. Well, I thought I had noticed that when the counter person went to put ice in my drink, that she had dropped the lid on the floor... OK, she'll just get a fresh lid... Instead, she picked up the lid from the floor, then rinsed it off in the sink behind the counter... Hmm...

"Did you drop the lid?"
-Yes, I did, but I rinsed it.
"You really should have gotten a fresh lid. I know the food service rules."
-Well, I did rinse it off, so it's clean now.
"Well, you really should have just gotten a new lid. That would have been much easier, and the correct thing to do."
-Well... Would you like a fresh lemonade?
"Yes, I would. Thank You."

I could tell I flustered her, but I also know that rinsing something that fell on the floor is not going to "clean" it. I really wasn't upset. I just wanted it done right.

-And the Blueberry Lemonade was quite good too! A perfect drink for a stroll down Broadway on a summer night in New York City.

I don't disagree one bit. It definitely is better.

I'm just saying that, in my opinion, the difference between playing a Blu-Ray disc and a regular DVD in a Blu-Ray player is not that anything to get that excited about.

If a Blu-Ray disc is a 10, then a good regular DVD in a Blu-Ray player is certainly an 8 or 9.

No, it really depends on the disc. If and when, for example, you get 2001, you will be blown away - the disc is a ten, and its DVD counterpart is probably a three.

I think I'll go for one more episode of Lost, Season Three this evening. Two episodes ago they had a fun "twist" (which anyone with a brain could have seen coming a mile away). Then, in the next episode, that story and twist is not even referred to at all - and that's BAD, oh, creators of Lost, because by the time you get around to returning to that story and twist I DON'T CARE anymore. Whereas if the followup episode had continued with it, I would have been riveted.

Time to sleep. I must get up very early to go to Lincoln, NE. Aren't you all jealous?

Weren't there 180 songs written for My fair Lady? Hence the famous rhyme 180 for My fair Lady.

I think I will have to read the posts tomorrow. 10 pages today wow.

Really tired.. Did watch Across the Universe tonight to try and relax. It was sweet.

Saying goodnight.

Happy Happy Thursday.

Which particular twist are you referring to?

JMK · « **Reply #288 on:** August 05, 2009, 09:58:48 PM »

Or, for the grammar police:

To which particular twist are you referring?

JMK · « **Reply #289 on:** August 05, 2009, 10:04:15 PM »

Do any of our NYC cognoscenti know Leslie Orofino? Will they tell her to contact me about her need for an accompanist out here on September 5? She is very hard to get a hold of.

I believe that bk is referring to the end of "The Man from Tallahassee," but I could be wrong.

bk · « **Reply #291 on:** August 05, 2009, 10:29:24 PM »

No, it's the "twist" SPOILER

Involving Juliette - where you think she's on Michael's side, and then see the flashback where she's talking to Michael Emerson, and it's clear she's doing his bidding still. And then, in the followup episode, none of that is ever referred to - ridiculous.

Well, stay tuned, that's all I'll say on the subject.
