I found out a few weeks after I left home for college that there was someone sleeping in my bed back home...  a German foreign exchange student!  He ended up staying for the rest of the school year!

Very excited to put up our new titles tonight.  Something for everyone.  I suspect the soundtrack release is going to go very fast.

In other matters, Richard and I have added a couple of destinations to our NYC agenda:  The Morgan Library and the Strand Bookstore.  We've been to the Morgan before, but it was at the end of a long conference day for me - we'd like to be able to explore more thoroughly.  And, we've NEVER been to the Strand.  Should we try to do both in the same day?  Would any NYC DRs like to go with us?

I may have posted this the other night already, but just in case I didn't...

If any DR happens to be interested in the Chinese meal I had the other night - which included "sea worms" (otherwise known as "sea penises" in some circles) - just CLICK HERE.

DR Ginny - you probably haven't seen the Morgan since their multi-million dollar update/expansion.  It's really spectacular - I know you'll love it!

Wow!  I haven't seen this many DRs all in the Living Room all at the same time in many an age!

In the old days, BK used to open up the live chat room. That was always fun.

You know, I was thinking about the days when we used the chat  room. Good times! Especially enjoyable during the Emmys and Oscars.

Both are doable in the same day.  Just wear comfortable shoes.  Also, while the Morgan Library is roomy, airy and spacious, the Strand is most decidedly not. *Frankly, unless you're really looking to buy some used books, I'd suggest hitting some of the other smaller used bookstores if you want to spend some quality browsing time.  However, the Strand is right off of Union Square, and if you visit on a Greenmarket Day (Monday, Wednesday, Friday or Saturday).... -And it would be a nice tie-in with Ragtime too.

Yes, DR DAW, it had just reopened when we were there 3 years ago, but I was too tired to fully appreciate it.

Thanks for that link, DR JOse...what an amazing meal. I wish we had that kind of Chinese food available here. Now I am hungry.

Ah! So that's how you learned to speak German!

Yeah, DR Jose, I was thinking of going to the Morgan on Friday since we're seeing Ragtime that evening.  Maybe we'll save the Strand for Monday.  Are there any other used bookstores you particularly recommend?

CBS schedule on the East Coast will be delayed at least one hour.

That is why I am SO very grateful that CBS puts its CBS/Paramount produced shows on HD On Demand on my Time-Warner cable service. I can watch THREE RIVERS there and don't have the slightest problem trying to program when it might happen to come on during football season.

I can read it right side up and up side down.  I've seen this before and think it's pretty cool. I learned to read upside down very quickly by going over so many documents with clients

Really only 55 out of a 100 can read it? I could read it easily. What does it say about you if you can read it.

Wow, DR JoseSPiano - that was some meal!  Very interesting.

It really was.  As was mentioned in the post, the first time we went there, we were the only table that did not have the "sea worms", so... Luckily, our waitress - who happened to be the wife of the owner/cook - let us order a half-portion of the "sea worms" just in case we didn't like them.  Well, we did like them, but we were glad we only ordered a half portion since the rest of our meal came in such generous portions.

I'm glad the canadian channel that carries TAR is never delayed. I don't think i'd mind watching a few minutes late. But i like having the show on at 8pm.

I saw the baseball game was running way over. And boy was it snowy!
