DR Dan (The Man) - RE: Mic placement - That's quite common. It usually ends up there - instead of on the side of the face - if the actor doesn't have to wear a hat during the show. At least Cheyenne's mic more or less matches his hair color, and it looks like they're trying to hide it. I remember during previews for The Color Purple a good number of the mics were "flesh-colored"... Sadly, they were more suited for Sutton's Foster's "flesh" rather than that of La Chanze. They looked more like pimples rather than widow's-peaks.

Interesting...all I've ever seen are mics on the side of the face.

I guess it helps if one has a nice head of thick hair.

Well, as I was driving home from Target tonight (where I picked up UP), I spotted a house with Christmas lights on. And just around the corner from the same house, another home had its Halloween lights on. Tis the season...

I can see why you are attracted to this house. I just gotta say it though, 8000 sf may be way too much house.

We have returned from 2 Target stores with 2 matching swing-arm floor lamps for our family room. We also went to the Aronoff Center box office and got good seats for Wednesday's performance of White Christmas and to our friend's art exhibit opening. Now we're about to celebrate Richard's birthday with his requested dinner - steak, baked potatoes, green beans, Dove Bars.

Thanks, DR George, for the birthday wish for him!

Re Doctor Zhivago PG rating.

I have seen the film MANY years ago so ... but I do remember a rape scene that could justify the rating!
I know it's quite lame for today's society but still ...

And it is a rape, not an abduction like in The Fantasticks!

I have the same feeling with Who Framed Roger Rabbit?

Because it has famous cartoon characters, most think it's a film for children.
I just don't think it is.

I once complained -AND I was a Disney cast member then!!) that this film played continuously, on a somewhat large screen in the Character Shop down at the (then) Disney Village in Florida!
They were promoting the video then, just like they do in stores today.

In that regard, what is the legislation for showing films in stores when some of those films are PG rated because of sex and/or violence?

Nowadays, here, it seems that anything goes! It's just a product I guess! "sell, sell!"

One has to love this consumer's society!

I forgot about the rape scene in Zhivago. If I remember it was very subtle. I can understand your complaining about Roger Rabbit. Did parents also complain?

Oh, I believe I must have been the only one complaining; I can't tell. They did not give details ...

But ... I thought I might get a "verbal" for doing that, honestly!
They (The Walt Disney World people) might have thought; who's that French guy anyway?!

I like "Roger Rabbit"; the film. I can't stand the character and the voice!
I always thought that the mean character is really evil in that story, and the violence, underlined heavily by the music, really is there!
It sure is not a fairy tale!

And ... there are rumors about a RR prequel, if Spielberg agrees to work with Disney again!

I would say a good 3000-3500 of that is the pool house. The rest of the house is, yes, large, but it's not "excessive" feeling.

I never felt that having 300 of my closest friends over for a little sit-down in the living room was excessive, either.

According to IMDb, episode 7 of "Modern Family" was on November 4 and episode 8 will be on November 18. It should all be okay.

Well I have finagled a pre-approval letter from our CU. It also turns out this is a designated rural property which means it's eligible for 100% financing through the USDA. Unfortunately, Betsy and I make too much money together to qualify but our realtor had the brilliant idea of having only one of us apply, which would probably do it. Our *other* realtor (long story)--the one who will hopefully sell our current house--walked through today and we agreed more or less on a price he thinks will make this very marketable, even in this depressing economic climate.

Then you don't plan to purchase a new home until the current one is sold?

We can do it either way, but it would be less stressful to sell this one first. We owe virtually nothing on this one, but Betsy is less comfy carrying debt than I am.

I liked the half dozen ADAM-12 episodes that I watched. Milner and McCord have a nice partnership going. The stories are typical and the acting and writing are very Webb-like - but it's fun.

The boys were investigating a Mulholland lover's lane series of rapes and murders. They came upon a couple of teenagers making out.....the boy said: "Gee officer, nothing was going on."

Malloy: If we had come thirty minutes later, could you have said the same thing.

Reed: Right. Cars have brakes, sometimes they fail. People are the same way.

The teens were properly chastised by this analogy and drove away.

Apparently I do not have an account at BroadwayWorld. I thought I did, but I don't. And reading some of the posts there, I think I remember why I didn't sign up.
