I don't know exactly how the following will be received by members of this forum.  I expect some will find it hilarious, and others will find it inflammatory.  Most everyone will remark at it being a bit profane.

But, it's called Broadway Rhythm No. 1 and it has its point-of-view!

Watch with caution!

Well, I actually saw and loved both SIDE SHOW and RENT.

That video was interesting. I will give it that much.

I at least loved Side Show. And I like a lot of Next to Normal.

Well, I need to be heading home.  It's late and I've got some TV watching to do.

Until later!

I wish I had had one for when I was driving all over the city and region. But now that I just go to work and home, it doesn't seem to be a necessity for me any more. Which is probably why I'll end up with one in the a couple of months or so.

Vixdad was talking about getting one for me for my birthday  - I never saw the use for one - but on MOnday I had to go to a closing in Westchester county and one of my co-workers insisted I use her  GPS -  well it was so nice having this lady telling me where to turn - and I got there and back very easily --

the only thing I didn't like was that it did noyt speak the street names  just said turn in 1/4 mile mile  turn  right now .. etc -
   Iunderstand that soome of them  willsay turn right on Maple  Avenue....

and soem allow you to choose the voice that will talk to you


On Friday the Vixfamily will embark on a little 4 day trip to the great state of Pennsylvania  to visit the Sweetest Place ob Earth....

I thought perhaps since Radio Shack is having a GPS sale we should stop in there on Friday morning and pick one up

Get one without an attitude, Vixmom. I was in a car with one and the GPS was wrong, but it kept harping that we were going the wrong way until we turned it off and drove exactly to where we wanted to be.

So, BK, is it something by Schmidt and Jones? "Celebration," maybe?

It would be great to get a CD of their score for "Philemon." I saw a college production of it about 9 years ago and loved several of the songs.

We have a Garmin, Vixmom. We like it. I used it today to get to Ajo, as a matter of fact.

Today I went to Ajo, Arizona.

And that's about all I have to say about that.

I really want to know how "Ajo" is pronounced.

Is it like..."A-hoe"?

As in, "Stop being an Ajo, please!"?

Philemon is an eternal possibility.  Maybe one of these fine days.

Shayne, I don't know what the LAPD does these days.  But here's the fun fact of the evening - remember I said that one episode today was in a strip mall that I was sure was on Moorpark.  Since the address was clearly visible on one of the storefronts, I drove to that address - and that address on Moorpark is not a strip mall.  So, I put on my thinking cap and knew it couldn't be Riverside because there are no strip malls near that address - which led me to Magnolia and - that very strip mall, which is not only exactly the same now, but also houses - wait for it - the Kansas City Barbecue!  I couldn't believe it.  That side of the street is the same.  Across the street no longer exists - it's all one of those huge supermarket and fast food mini-malls and shops.

I don't think there's any official television code today - just whatever the FCC mandates.

Have you read the book DANGEROUSLY FUNNY?  It's about the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour and it is very detailed.    Quite an entertaining and educational read.

Then my pal Sam Bobrick must be in that book, since he was one of the writers on the show.
