Well, you've read the notes, the notes were toasted, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're currently eating an English MOOfin.

And the word of the day is: TRISKAIDEKAPHOBIA!

Smoke on your pipe and put that in.

What an appropriate word for today.

There's news on the Olympia production of The Brain From Planet X! I just got an e-mail from Josh, our director/music director with a tentative schedule and we start rehearsal on Monday, March 15! We open on April 29 and play through May 15!

BK, I have a question about your book. I can't remember if you said, but how far into your life do you plan to take the book? Are you going to go all the way to the present or will you just cover a certain time frame?

Morning all.

We went to Finian's again last night and it was just as wonderful as the first time. Kate Baldwin is radiant, Christopher Fitzgerald is hysterical, Cheyenne Jackson is wonderful, Jim Norton is great, Terri White is phenomenal, the score is beautifully rendered and the dancing is gorgeous!

Wednesday morning greetings! If I'm this tired after Mom's move yesterday, I can only imagine how she feels. Hope she slept better last night than I did.

Happy Birthday, DR TPunk!

DR Ben - I'm so glad you got back to see Finian's Rainbow again (and a little jealous!)

Good news about the move from DR GINNY.

And nice to hear DR BEN's thoughts on FR.

If Leno does THE TONIGHT SHOW at 11:35, can NBC still call it THE TONIGHT SHOW?

If so, wouldn't they have to pay O'Brien the $40 million penalty (or whatever the amount is)?

Oh, god, no lamer controversy now exists. Neither of them is worth what they get paid, but take the money and run, you idiots. It's not like this is the cure for cancer or anything.

LOL.....what I want is for Tabatha to say to the president of NBC....."I've seen enough. Give me your keys. I'm taking over."

Good morning!

I had my first walk this morning outside in the fresh air for the first time in exactly a week. So glorious to get a good half hour of fresh air. And I didn't get nearly as tired as I was expecting. I guess doing the treadmill during the past week helped keep me kind of in shape.

Matt H. · « **Reply #18 on:** January 13, 2010, 06:42:11 AM »

I've heard no UPS delivery thus far this morning, so I'm assuming SURROGATES once again didn't come (or FAME for that matter), and thus I'll be working on the Blu-ray of CHE this afternoon and evening. Since it's basically written up already, it'll be an easy day of work.

I did not like LAST ACTION HERO much at all when I saw it in the theaters back in, what, 1993? Overblown and underwhelming as I recall. I might feel differently about it now after 17 or so years, but I did not like it then.

TV notes:

Fans of LEVERAGE, I believe the show has a new episode on tonight at 10 on TNT.

Of course, most shows have new episodes up tonight. There is a new MODERN FAMILY at 9 (and a rerun at 8 ).

Don't forget that UGLY BETTY has moved to Wednesday nights at 10.

Good morning - the phone from the tax office rang early this morning. What is it, tax season or something?

Matt H. · « **Reply #22 on:** January 13, 2010, 06:47:38 AM »

I have more BETTER OFF TED on the DVR and last night's NCIS: LA which I'll likely watch while I eat lunch.

I dread even thinking about doing mine. I haven't bought my tax software yet, but as usual, I won't actually sit down to do them until late March once I'm sure I have all of the tax forms which my brokerage is always late in sending updated information.

I do know that this year, I'll take TWO days to enter data rather than sitting at this desk for 5 or 6 hours entering all of those buys and sells for short term and long term listings.

My favorite part of the movie was when school teacher Joan Plowright explains to her students that Laurence Olivier was best known for doing CLASH OF THE TITANS and Polaroid commercials.

LOL

PASSING STRANGE is slated to appear on selected PBS stations tonight as well. I was unimpressed with the clips from the show when it was up for the Best Musical Tony, but I may pop over and look at some of it at some point this evening once my work project is finished.

It's nice to watch part of THE VIRGINIAN everyday. Since it was a 90 minute show - there are lots of scenes of the mountains and of the guys riding around to fill up the time....but it looks good.

Yesterday Trampas joined the Rough Riders to fight with Teddy Roosevelt in Cuba.....Steve tried to talk him out of it. Hilarity followed.
