Thanks for those screen captures, DR George. I missed the Mercer documentary due to my heavy work schedule, and at least I got to see those important credits.

It will re-run several more times, if you feel so inclined...

I will keep an eye out for it because I do love Johnny Mercer's work and would find this interesting, I'm sure.

It'll be on again on November 18.

Favor - can some of you dear readers go to YouTube and rate the various haineshisway videos - some ASS has gone in there on every video that had no star rating and given them one star - I'm sure it's one of our amusing little enemies who has nothing better to do - it's so bloody obvious - but all it will take is a couple of five-star ratings to put it right.

Done. :D

Someone has pointed out that the one-star ratings is a YouTube glitch that only occurs if I'm looking in "My Videos" - once you actually go to the video, most of them have five-star ratings.

Oh, well...you got some more 5-star ratings, anyway. :)

I watched the first LAW & ORDER on Friday night. It was an involving episode with more gang/drug/intimidation stuff for the legal team to deal with and a smarmy lawyer played by Jonathan Cake representing the drug cartel. I liked it.

Did Mr Cake keep his clothes on?

Unfortunately, yes.

Today, I'm going to see a play called "Ladies of the Alamo."  I've never hear of it, but a friend is in it, so I'm going to go.  And it starts in a hour!  Gotta get ready.

Have a good day, all!

I saw the original production when it tried out in Philly.  Estelle Parsons, Eileen Heckart and Rosemary Murphy.  A lot of bitchy fun with a bizzare turn.

It was pretty good...for a college production.  The actresses were pretty good and the show was funny.

Don't you hate it when that happens??

MATTH _ I keep meaningto ask you -  where can I read your reviews?

hometheaterforum.com

Once there, go into the search line and type (without quotation marks) "HTF REVIEW + Matt Hough"

and that should bring up pages of notations. There should be over five hundred reviews there so happy searching. If you have a specific movie in mind like, say, WINGS OF DESIRE that we were talking about today, you can just type in the name of the movie and the search engine will pull up all threads on that topic and you will see my review threads among those.

Thanks for asking!

I debated with myself for a long time over what to watch on the DVR and if I wanted to simply pull a favorite movie like MEET ME IN ST. LOUIS off the shelf.

I decided to watch AUSTRALIA since it's taking up a three hour high def block on my DVR. My cache went from 78% full to 61% once I had watched it and deleted it.

Anyway, this is a movie that does NOT lack for plot. Good lord, was this a sprawling tale or what! Reminded me some of RED RIVER and some of OUT OF AFRICA and bits and pieces of lots of other movies, too. The production was BIG (wonder what this thing cost?), but I think maybe some things could have been cut to make it a little more streamline and run a bit more smoothly. I did find Kidman and Jackman together made for an interesting couple. I also thought the movie's villain Fletcher was quite a hunk himself. I wanted him to take HIS shirt off as much as Jackman got to toss his off on occasion.

DEXTER tonight had a first, an OOPS! moment that should have some ramifications for the remaining episodes of the season. I'll be interested to see where it all leads. Good show!

Also, I haven't watched it yet, but my sister's boyfriend was able to record the Johnny Mercer documentary for me, and he gave me the DVD today.  I went to my parents' house for dinner before the show and he came with my sister and niece.  Even though I haven't watched it, I wanted to see the HHW reference in the credits...and here they are:


and notice the first credit on this screen capture and then look right in the middle:


thank you George!!  Do you, by chance, have any way of duplicating said DVD and if you do,  would you consider doing so for the likes of me?

I do...and can! :D

DR elmore - I can't remember if I've mentioned this already, but... It turns out that my youngest brother, Jay, is a friend and former co-worker of Alina Faye's husband.  Jay had been telling me that his friend's wife had landed a featured role in a Broadway show, but he could never remember the name of the show... Well... Of course, since Alina was out the night I saw Finian's Rainbow, I guess I'm going to have to see the show again. ;)

If you decide to go in December, maybe I'll be able to join you!

Mad Men closed out season three with a really crackerjack episode - I won't say anymore, other than it was very satisfying without being one of those annoying cliffhanger things.

Snow White missing five dwarfsBy Lynn Zerschling lzerschling@siouxcityjounral.com | Posted: Sunday, November 8, 2009 8:45 pm

A woman living in Morningside told police Sunday morning someone once again has dwarf-napped five of Snow White's seven dwarfs from her front yard.

She said each of the cement pieces weighed 50 pounds each. The set had been displayed in her front year and along her drvieway on Morningside Avenue.

Snow White was not stolen, perhaps because she weighed more than 100 pounds.

The resident told police this marks the third time some of her lawn ornaments have been taken. In August, thieves took Doopey and Sneezy.

Good Evening!

It was a truly gorgeous, picture-perfect Fall day here in NYC.  Yes, it was "unseasonably warm", but... :)  Lots of walking, some picture taking, and more walking.
