GLEE - hmmmmmmmmmmmm.....I am not a Kristen Chenowith fan or supporter, so there were some really irritating moments for me. I really don't remember her singing through her nose so much....maybe it was a character choice.

But anyway....I am not sure how much longer I can stay with the show....the kids can have it.

I have gotten through episode 16 today of THE UNIT. That leaves six episodes for tomorrow which I should easily be able to accomplish. There is this unseen enemy that turned on a factory full of chlorine gas to poison a small community where our heroes live. This was a ridiculous episode.

Oh, boy! I ain't no kid, and I *LOVED* GLEE tonight. I adored every song, I enjoyed Kristin's drunk character, and it wouldn't surprise me at all to find her nominated for a guest star Emmy next year. I thought she was smashing.

That picture on the left is from 1971 when I had more hair and less avoirdupois.

When I was growing up, Arnolds Park Amusement Park on West Okoboji had a great fun house wiht a huge wooden sugar bowl where you played king of the mountain as it spun around, a wooden barrel that you tried to walk through as it spun around and a great wooden slide. They have been in storage since the fun house was torn down in the 80s. Today they were taken out of storage and will be part of a new park. Liability will prevent the barrel from rolling and the bowl from spinning, but they will be back. that makes me smile

When we first moved to Ashland the park had a wooden barrel that spun. It looked rather old & was torn down when the playground was updated. We miss the barrel. The rest of the playground looks great.

I forgot to mention this afternoon that I had a chance to skim through yesterday's two soaps: ATWT and OLTL, but there was nothing of interest in either one of them.

Matt H. · « **Reply #189 on:** September 30, 2009, 07:26:29 PM »

I also had time to scan through today's soap episodes. Once again, zip. Nada. Nothing.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #190 on:** September 30, 2009, 07:27:06 PM »

You REALLY liked her singing? Maybe it was just over produced....but it sounded very nasal to me. Oh well......I will leave it to YOU kids.....LOL.....

The review set for MEDIUM arrived today, but I won't get to it until Friday.

Yes, I did like it. I thought it sounded like Kristin Chenoweth. If that's what you call nasal, well, that's what I call Kristin. I've never heard her sound any other way.

She always sings through her nose.

I really liked tonight's episode of "Glee" too. However...

I know it's the "sound" that the "kidz" are used to hearing nowadays, but all of the processing and auto-tune-ing of the vocals still bugs me.

I also got the Blu-ray version of MONSOON WEDDING from Criterion, but since it doesn't come out until October 20th, I won't worry about getting to it any time soon. And when I do that will be an easy day since I've already seen and written up the movie and the the rest of the contents on standard DVD.

Ditto. -Although, I prefer to think of it as "a very forward placement".

-And I do think that "they" emphasize that "forward placement" in the mix-down.

I cannot think of a Wednesday question...so how about some LULU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WsAI-JFB_k

Do you remember when she was one of the two "Caravelles" ( I think that was the group's name). It was before the candy bar came out.

While I was out and about, I stopped by The Big Gay Ice Cream Truck to drop off some of the programs from The Vendys. I also tried their new menu item - which was premiered at The Vendys: Mexican Hot Chocolate.

Muy YUMMERS!

*I also realized that while I was working the truck on Saturday at The Vendys, I didn't have any ice cream. I served it, I just didn't eat it.

Well, I had a quick night internet surf, and now I'm ready for bed.

Good night!

Aren't you suppose to poke a small hole into the wet area to prevent it all from collapsing?

They tried that with me once, but it didn't work!
