Has anyone ever tried to watch all three extended versions of the Lord of the Rings trilogy in one day?

My sister said that she wanted to (before they were all released), but I don't know if she actually did.

Here's a lovely interview with my friend Rodney Gilfry about the SOUTH PACIFIC tour. If it comes to a city near you, I think you should try to catch this beautiful production. Then stop at the stage door and tell Rodney you're a friend of mine! He's a great guy.

Thanks DRS Laura & Ginny.

The latest update is 100 homes in immediate danger...as many as 400 could be threatened. The elementary school has been evacuated to the middle school. I must say I'm impressed how quickly the buses were at the school as a precaution.

An evacuation center is being set up in town & the governor gave an order to release firefighting resources.

The updates are slow. As far as I know some structures & 2 homes have been lost. The wind has not died down. Many of the homes being evacuated are near my hiking trails. I hope the homes, trails & bear will be ok.

Getting down to Toyland was a nightmare: I rode an subway to lincoln Center and transferred to a No 11 bus; it was packed with about 80% of the seats filled with schoolchildren riding for free while only 20% of the paying customers sat. The rest of the mob stood, and this really pisses me off. I've paid my damned $2.25 for the fuckin ride. After that, I had a nice visit at MTI, picked up the music, and got onto a jammed subway car to Toyland.

DR DAW thanks. I am finding this scary & also grateful we are fire free. Of course I'm too aware that could change in an instant. Our neighbor said friends will be staying with her tonight. I said to call if she knows of others in need. I did call some friends near the area & they weren't home. I left a message. I'm pretty sure the wife has a brother who is not in the evacuation area. Thank goods Doug's family is on the other side of town.

Our DS Rob and his friends had a LotR marathon in our living room. It took from dusk 'til dawn.

Fantastic! I got my new Adriana Hofstetter book in the mail. I love the book, I love inscription, I love the gift, AND I love the dedication.

Now read it, and write a review!

Getting to my lunch meeting was a nightmare, too. I took Beverly Glen and approaching Wilshire the traffic was backed up over a block. The police had blocked off the street and the street that would lead you into Westwood Village, so we all had to turn around and take a side street to the east. That led down towards Wilshire but they had that blocked off too. No signs, no here's why it's happening - so we all had to turn around and head up a very narrow hill and then back down to Wilshire. Absurd.

Do we have any expert musicologists here of 20s and 30s music? Where you might be able to recognize the name of a tune? A free CD will come to the first person who does. e-mail me if you really think you can figure it out, and I'll tell you how to proceed.

DR MBarnum, there is now a separate fire in Medford....http://www.mailtribune.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20090921/NEWS07/909219991 I hiked in the area just a couple of weeks ago.

Thanks again, Jane.

I will have to eat something else - those enchiladas were terrible and I've got to get the taste of them out of my mouth. I don't think it was a very caloric lunch plus I ran, so I think I may have eggs and bacon or a turkey sandwich in a little while.

DR JMK - since both Avondale and Madison County Players are defunct and I never attended either, I am lucky to have gotten name of the PLAY right the first time.

DR Jose - I'm sorry to hear about your friend's death.

Thanks, DR Ginny - Although, since I hadn't seen Bobby in about 20 years, well... But still - and I can't really think of a more delicate way to put this, but... I shouldn't be at an age where my classmates are starting to die. Or something like that. $:-\$

Trust me, my friend, it gets worse.
