DR MATTH - there was only a threat of a sing-off in the parking lot - things were smoothed over in the next couple of sentences of dialog and it never took place.....last few minutes was more singing.

J. Groff looked a little uncomfortable in the big group number....it's amazing how everyone else fits right in as a group....which they should....he may have been "acting" his part as a newbie.

For obvious reason I will be skipping GLEE next week.

I went to fox.com this morning to watch the show to get to that last number. Fox very thoughtfully allows a viewer to place the pointer at the spot in the show where he wants to begin downloading, so I didn't have to watch the entire show to get to that last number.

I enjoyed it ("Like a Prayer") though why they felt the need to bring in that church choir at the end was just a bit of overkill. Yes, Groff was definitely not given any solo moments in that number (nice to hear Kurt's soprano get some attention) and seemed to be playing almost catch-up with the choreography. We'll see if being a part of New DIrections continues to seem awkward for him.

I'm off to meet up with my hiking group on this dreary morning.  It will be a short one & I will be home in plenty of time to help Keith celebrate his birthday.:)

Good morning!

Didn't have quite as pleasant a night's sleep as the last two nights. Thus, I feel a little groggy this morning. We did get rain last night, but today looks to be nice.

I'm looking forward to my day off today. I want to get to THE DESERT SONG today, and I should have plenty of time to do so.

With HUMAN TARGET now over and GLEE moved to Tuesday nights, the only show I have left now on Wednesday night is MODERN FAMILY, and they're showing two reruns tonight, so I have a completely free night to watch some movies tonight. I'd like to watch a Blu-ray and a Warner Archive disc, but I'll see how I feel later in the day before deciding what I want to watch.

I guess when I go back down, I'll speed through last night's IDOL. Since they ran over into GLEE's time, I got to see the recap, and everyone sounded good except Tim.

Sorry, DR George, about your Tivo not getting LOST. I'm pretty sure I deleted it after I watched last night.

As for the GLEE cutoff, IDOL running over is just ridiculous since they had already slotted the show to run over and it ran over EVEN MORE. They've been on the air almost a decade now. Seems like they'd have this down to a science by now.

Yes DR MATTH - the last three episodes of SPARTACUS were even bloodier than any Al Adamson movie....

And SPARTACUS is kind of like DARK SHADOWS - just because a character is dead doesn't mean he/she might not wander through a flashback or memory sequence.

ASK BK

Not counting this question; what has been the most outlandish "Ask BK" question you were ever asked?

I honestly can't remember any REALLY outlandish question.

My DVR is behaving strangely.  A week ago I noticed that it wasn't showing the program titles so I called and they had me do a reset by pushing some red button.  That seemed to work and it seemed to gather some of the program titles - she said the rest would follow in the next day or two, only it didn't, and now we're back to no titles.  She said if it continued to unplug the unit and then plug it back in, which I guess I'll try this morning.  If that doesn't work, I'll call again and they'll have to come out and do something.  I looked at the dish and nothing is blocking its signal that I can see.

BK, I have had to do the unplug thing a few times on my DVR. It always seemed fixed what was wrong...although for most of the first after I would see incomplete listings on the title grid, or whatever you would call it.

I loved his character, too. And the bromance going on between Varro and Spartacus was really touching and interesting. I could have watched an entire season of them as gladiators and friends.

I guess I'll close down for the time being and head downstairs to skim through last night's IDOL. Then, I'll get busy cooking some lunch.

FJL, yes, the stabbing was done behind my back from a most unexpected source, a guy who evidently wanted one of his friends hired for the job.  I've met her and she will be an absolute fiasco in the job, which they'll find out soon enough.  This position is a rather strange combination of vocal arranger, pianist-conductor and emcee, and this lady can barely (and I do mean barely) play a C chord on the piano.  (Did I mention most of these seniors need their songs transposed, and all of the charts I provided are leadsheets only?).

This is turning into a very frustrating day! The computer at the office seems to have lost its ability to produce any sound of any volume and nothing I've done is restoring it. I blame our cleaning service, since it was working the last time I was here. The fax I tried to send twice will not go through. What the hell is going on? I, of course, blame the Packard Humanities institute for all of this.

Vibes to one and all needing them today. I had meant to post that earlier and was so angry at my neighbor that I forgot. My priority was to turn the volume of the tv as high as possible and leave.

As I'm sure all the pianists here will agree, people tend to assume when you play the piano well that piano playing is an easy art to master and that any fool can do it.  ;)

Just unplugged the DVR for a minute or so and have now replugged - it's doing its thing.
