Yes, it's a Kritzerland release, and yes, we'll be offering signed copies at no extra charge.

HOO and RAY!!

Since I've never really met her, I didn't say hello, although I smiled. She was on her cell phone, though.

It's a process that takes a long time, Cillaliz. Take time to remember the good times you had.

Can we get signed copies of The Beatles Boxed Set, too?

While I ate my hastily concocted lunch, I watched the first of last night's CASTLE repeats. I'm looking forward to new episodes of the show.

Me to! One of my three favorite shows from last season (the other two being SOUTHLAND and LIFE ON MARS). DR MattH, when does CASTLE start again?

I watched MAMMA MIA yesterday. It was a very strange movie. I didn't hate it or anything - it was just weird.

She was probably on the phone to a friend saying, "Oh my gosh, I just saw Bruce Kimmel at the grocery store!"

My September book group pot luck was fun. Most everyone enjoyed the book. We all would have liked more character development. We all enjoyed the history lesson of the island of Guernsey and its German occupation during the war. The story is told completely with letters which we all found charming.

Even though my toffee cookies were a bit hit I still have plenty left to take to a friend tomorrow who is recovering from surgery.

I can't recall the name right now, but I reviewed a British television series (which lasted for two seasons, IIRC) about this very occupation.

Jane · « **Reply #160 on:** September 08, 2009, 05:46:48 PM »

DR JMK someone mentioned the series today. I would like to watch it. Can you find the name?

That is all.

No. But I should be back in less than 12 hours from now.

You're invited to watch it any time with me, DR TCB. It ain't great film-making, but, it sure is fun.

Jane · « **Reply #164 on:** September 08, 2009, 05:56:41 PM »

DR JMK might it have been "Island at War"?

Jane · « **Reply #165 on:** September 08, 2009, 06:08:16 PM »

I take it back, I'm looking for a documentary not a fictionalized account.

Unless you really have something against dramatized versions, ISLAND AT WAR is a beautifully told story of the occupation, and was on Masterpiece Theatre.

Thanks, I know it does. I'm ok.

Jane · « **Reply #171 on:** September 08, 2009, 06:23:03 PM »

The person said it was on Masterpiece Theater & I can't find a documentary there, maybe she meant ISLAND AT WAR. I will add it to my NetFlix queue. Thank you.

While I was searching for the documentary I came across FOYLE'S WAR and also added the series to my queue.

I have to wait for DR JMK's response. In the meantime I suggest reading "The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie". I really dislike the title of the book, that is until I read the book & realize how appropriate it is. The disgusting sounding pie refers to one of the better dishes they had to eat during the occupation.

As for the Topic of the Day...

Classical: Glenn Gould recording Bach's "Goldberg Variations" - the first time - as well as the post-production editing sessions. -Just to see how idiosyncratic he really was.

Jazz: Any of the Ella Fitzgerald "Songbook" sessions. -Especially the ones where she would purposely make a mistake in order to put the band into overtime in order to help out one of the players financially.

Cast Album: For sentimental reasons: Sunday in the Park with George -Also just to see how manic Mandy Patinkin reportedly was during the session - especially during "Putting It Together".

Don't celebrate prematurely, DR TCB. Just because they might be signed doesn't mean that a phone number will necessarily be included.
