I've told this story so often before. When I read either on the internet or in InTheater magazine that bk had left that infamous record label that shall go nameless, I wondered where he landed because I enjoyed the show tune CDs he was producing. I wrote Ken Mandelbaum asking he he knew anything about bk's whereabouts, and he sent me here.

The board was still using the older text-only format, but it wasn't too long before we switched over, so I came in right at the end of the old forum.

You can blame it on Elmo -- and The Brain -- I met Mr. Lar at The Brain from Planet X premiere at LACC. He stalked and harassed me about joining HHW until I finally gave in that December, and the rest is gratuitous E and T posting history.

Yes, I'm one of those lurking E and T-type HHWayers out there on the fringe of membershipdom, so I won't win any best HHWayer awards, but I am a fan of all of you, nonetheless -- even when I'm not around to show it!

The tentative plans right now are to work on the Disney tins of ZORRO (seasons one and two) today and tomorrow. That is, IF they come in the mail today. If they don't, I'll either do MONSTERS, INC on Blu-ray or if one of the Fox discs comes in (I'm expecting SAY ANYTHING as well as ICE AGE 3), I'll do it.

But I'd really rather not do MONSTERS INC. since it doesn't come out until the 10th, and there are other discs that are either already out or coming out tomorrow.

I'm looking forward to last night's BROTHERS & SISTERS which I should be able to fit in before heading out to lunch with best friend John. There is last night's MAD MEN, too, but I'm not sure when it'll get watched. Soon, I hope.

I do remember when the new forum came in and all the brouhaha that it brought with it. SOme of us (including me) were thrilled we could post avatars, post pictures, work toward "God" status, etc. Others were upset about the change of format and were annoyed about being taken from their comfort zones.

And remember "karma"? THAT was fun! NOT!

As for the Topic of the Day....

...I really should archive it somewhere on my computer so that I don't have to keep looking it up each time. ;)

Otherwise... I'm pretty sure I came here - well, to the "brown board" - after all the FA stuff. I think.  Hmm... Let me do some more searching and Googling.

I'm going to head off-line now for a couple of hours. There are a couple of things I need to take care of around the apartment today.  I also received an email from Steve; his mother died this morning. So, I'll be checking in with him in a bit too.

I'm heading downstairs now to get cleaned up for lunch out later. Then I'll see if the mail has brought anything so I can get a handle on what I might be working on today.

Though I was mercilessly beaten by around 40 people in signing up on this format, I think I was one of the very first to post on the old Board.  BK himself sent me an invite after the notorious bad incident.  I think I have relayed one of my favorite BK stories, the way we struck up our internet friendship--he had inadvertently posted his name on an RATM post, and I, being the opportunist that I am, had emailed him and he very kindly answered.  Later I discovered that one of my favorite "nobody's heard of them" bands from the 1960's had done a song called Driftin', written by one B. Kimmel.  I emailed Bruce to ask him if he was the writer, and his classic response to me was, "I would never write a song with a missing 'g' at the end."  :)

Evidently my screener for the Sim CHRISTMAS CAROL is MIA, so the label is overnighting me another one.  That may save me from HD Moods:  Aquarium.  :)

Re:  Last night's THE AMAZIN' RACE

SPOILER WARNINGS SPOILER WARNINGS SPOILER WARNINGS SPOILER WARNINGS SPOILER WARNINGS

Wow--this has really been a weird season elimination-wise, ain't it?  First we had the Uber Yoga couple, who didn't get to race at all, then Zev and Justin who come in first but lost a passport, then last week a team is gone because one of them wouldn't complete a challenge and then this week with the Poker Gals who couldn't complete a challenge.  Any of these happenstances could have occurred in any of the previous races, but to have them all happen in the same season is just odd.

I did find myself sorry to see the Poker Gals go--they were entertaining and aside from lying about being social workers, they were never really villains.  But we are into the final weeks and teams must go.

My biggest laugh last night was when one of the Globetrotters said "If I never learned any names of the other team members, the one I would know is "BRIAN!"

TOD - Just over 5 years ago, on a business trip to NYC I visited with longtime friend DR Elmore.  He kept talking about this website where he was spending a lot of time and sent me the link.  I lurked for a while, until DR JRand posted a photo of someone to identify and I signed up to answer - Nancy Dickerson.  My relationship with both HHW and NYC has flourished and deepened.

The irony about that visit with DR Elmore is that he had another friend in town that week and joked about "juggling 2 women."  The "other woman" was DR Jane!  We finally met, first online and then in person a year later when we were in NYC for DR Jose's famous walking and eating tour:

 

Such a wonderful photo that brings back wonderful memories.

The year before I had almost suggested to DR elmore the 3 of us get together, except I wanted him to myself since it was our first meeting in person.  I never imagined the opportunity to know DR Ginny much sooner.

DR MATTH - the MAD MEN episode takes you right back to that day - when the behavior of the adults was puzzling and very different from anything we had seen before.
