Hmmm... The sun is "scheduled" to set at 4:52pm today.  -Just about two hours and ten minutes from now.  Hmm...

I changed all the clocks today. But dumb me. I left for my bikeride at 3:30pm and by 4:10pm i was wondering why it was getting so dark out. Dumb!

Glad you made it home safely.  Do you have a light on your bike, just in case? 

No, I don't drive at night. i have reflectors but no light (since i never drive at night).

I am going out to dinner with my aunt and uncle. It's sort of unusual for just the 3 of us to go out alone. But my uncle really wanted to go. And we are going somewhere i have not been in years. They make really good ribs which used to be my favorite.  Hopefully they are still good. They are sweet ones (which is not how most places make them here).

Is there where you went for your birthday a few years back?  That is nice you are spending time alone with your aunt & uncle.

No, i have not been to this restaurant in at least 5 years.  It was good but i like the ribs at the other place better. These ones are very very sweet. I do like them. But i guess i have gotten very used to the other ones.

And the prices have gotten ridiculously high. They were charging $17 for 6 ribs. They are huge. And they give you one extra. But i found that to be a lot.

Anyhow i only had 6 ribs. But i got at least 9 to take home.  My uncle is very generous. They don't have any kids so they treat us like their kids.

Hmmmm... Apparently the revival of Bye, Bye Birdie had a 16% increase in ticket sales last week. -One of only three shows that had a "bump" last week. Hmmm....

The AMC hi-def broadcast (which is what I've been watching) is on now (possible east coast time)...7:00 pm PST.  The regular broadcast of AMC is on at 10:00 pm PST.

I figured the Kennedy assassination would serve in some way as the season finale. Interesting to see what the remaining episodes of the season will do with that in the background.

Now I must head downstairs and go to bed. It's much later than I was expecting.

Good night!

It looks like there is only one more episode after this.

The dog above me is barking today. I don't know which is worse: the damned dog or the damned squeaky bed when he's having sex.

How often is this dog having sex?


ROTFLMAO!

Very strange, productive,  somewhat disappointing and, finally, restful day.

I watched APOCALYPTO today, which I picked up on BD in a Milwaukee Barnes and Noble for about $7 (!).  Fascinating story, but kind of graphically violent at times.

Thanks for the info, Jose.

In other news, TCB has evidently registered at Blu-ray.  I just received a thank you PM for my review of HD Moods:  Fire.  :)

bk, hope your schedule allows you some rest at some point.

And I know you won't do it, but some of us have been saying for a long time, "Bag the long musical."   The drama with the creative staff just doesn't seem to be worth it.

bk - I forget - Are you already lined to be the director of the musical should it receive a "first class" production?  Or is that a detail you can't discuss at this point?

The answer is yes - unless whoever puts up 14 million bucks wants someone else - I'll get paid off if that happens, but for now, it's me.

Mad Men was excellent this evening - top-notch in every department.  I think everyone knew since the show was heading towards the end of 1963 that the assassination would be part of at least one of the episodes.  The way in which it was introduced was very clever.  The director of this episode was film director Barbet Schroeder.  We were finally back at Sterling Cooper for a good portion of the show, which was nice, and Peggy had a little more to do, and Pete was back, too.  Last show of the season next week - it will be very interesting to see where they leave Don and Betty, and how they leave several other plot strands.

Too pooped to try to post something interesting.

Taking all of November to relax (except for the party tomorrow night that is) , to stay home after work and not constantly be doing things.   I'm too old to be running around like I'm still 20 or even 40.

Get back into watching movies, listening to music, listening to the wonderful programs on the radio, and reading, and I guess some exercise.  

Happy November everybody. ;)

I'm still full from the pasta I made earlier.  I ate quite a bit, I must say, but it was all I ate all day.
