DR TCB, if you want to hear Steve LaBrie sing, here's a youtube link for you:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8GySKwpw_Y

Mikey might even enjoy it!

You a right. Now he has a voice I could listen to! I would never have guessed someone who looked like t hat would be have such a strong voice.

He was also featured on Barihunks earlier this summer.  -And he's singing in English on the video posted there too. No subtitles needed. Although, something tells me his "language" is the least of your concerns.

So,here I am at the airport.  When I booked my car service yesterday I did as I always do, told them I was a nervous traveler and to please get the car there a liitle early so that it would be there when i came down.  I came down at 4:40 to leave at 4:45. No car. At 4:43 I called and they told me the car was two blocks away.  At 4:48 I called back, told them the car was still not there and that I was getting in a cab, which is exactly what I did.  Had a great cab driver who got to the airport in twenty five minutes.  Line wasn't bad at all and I was through security in ten minutes.  I'm now at the gate.  The car service will be getting a call from me when I get home.

I hate when that happens especially in the wee hours of the morning.  Thank goodness for cabs.

Whew.....wanted to see - one more time - Gloria Wondrous go sailing out over the construction zone in her little red and black car to her demise......

I would have opted for a cab in the first place. Especially if I was staying in midtown where there are always lots of cab to be hailed - especially at that time of the day.  *Most of them are finishing off their night shift at 5:00am or 6:00am, and would like to finish off their day with a nice fare.  Anyhoo...

Does/has anybody here watched the series Burn Notice?

Since we don't get USA it was never on here. But they've started showing the first season.

I watched the first episode and can't decide if it's something I'd like or not. I do tend to like the shows on USA (I love Royal Pains, White Collar and In Plain Sight). The lead guy is appealing. I was just curious if this is a must see show.

We watch it and have liked it from the very beginning.  I suggest giving it another try.  I remember some complaints about his mother.  With time she becomes more endearing though still tough.   I like her.

Nice picture, JRand.

Ditto!

[Jane]

Here is the picture.....the day they eloped! 

[TCB]

Wonderful anniversary snap JRand! 62 years...that is a lot of marriage!

Hmm...do you have a photo of your parent's wedding day?

Oh oh, Jrand, MBarnum is hot for your dad!

[Jane]

I leave Massanutten today where I did next to nuttin' all week, except walk through woods that were rapidly changing color, take a ski lift, learn to zipline, visit wineries, etc. Guess it was a busier week than I remember.

It all sounds wonderful!!!

[TCB]

Next up CRITIC'S CHOICE.....a weak Hope/Ball vehicle.....I remember seeing it at the movies and wondering how Lucy could worry about having a baby at her age.

I did the play a hundred years ago.  I don't find it funny.

BUTTERFIELD 8 was on this morning DR TCB.....with Elizabeth Taylor Hilton Wilding Todd Fisher as Gloria Wondrous....from the novel by John O'Hara.

Yours is the general consensus, I must say.

I won't make that mistake again in a busy city.  I was talked into arranging for a cab ahead of time my last night in DC.  While I was standing outside trying to contact the driver, who had given me his cell number, a cab circled a couple of times and then pulled into the hotel.  He knew exactly who I was waiting for and said he often picks up stranded passengers.

Wonderful anniversary snap JRand! 62 years...that is a lot of marriage!

Watch out, DR JRand60! He's got eyes on your Dad.

Mikey, are you moved in to your new apartment and has anyone started eviction proceedings?

Last night Keith & I saw this sundae, made with vanilla bean ice cream. on "Man VS Food".  You have no idea how much we both want to try this. 

If only I had known this place existed when I was in Philly last year.

DR Jane - Been there. Done that. Twice.

Thank you, Jrand.  I must have missed that post.  Maybe I thought it was one of JMK's posts.

Rip Torn is most handsome as Dion Kapakos

That would be the role I played.

Is he the man they named the Tar Pits after?

Although, in the spirit of full disclosure, it was a group effort both times.

*Franklin Fountain does have some amazing treats. Although, another option is to head to Reading Terminal Market and combine some treats from Flying Monkey Patisserie and Bassetts Ice Cream for a "Make Your Own" sundae.

Of course you have!  So why didn't you tell me to go when I mentioned a trip to Philly?

Oh boy!  We may be on Page Five by the time BK gets home!

I'm glad it was a group effort!

I did go to the market place.  I got a shoe-fly pie which my friend finished.  I remembered one or two bites is all I can ever eat of those.  I tasted a breakfast pretzel my friend got.  I can remember what else I got though I remember it was good.  It was still morning so I never thought to try the ice cream and we didn't have time to stop before taking the train home.  I think I got some good candy too.

DR Jose, I am suspecting that the singer is having what I'll call lesbophobia but since it's something for her to work out internally and I neither want to see her flip out nor let her marriage fall apart, I am respecting her wishes. She's a wonderful lady and a phenomonal singer and I want her to be happy. The musical director said she got very emphatic about singing it.

DR elmore - That's understandable. Of course, now I'm wondering if she would ever approach Strauss' "Ständchen".  -And that's one song that was most definitely written for a woman's voice, even though the poem is from a man's point of view.  -Although, I do get get a kick out of Fischer Dieskau's recording (transposed down a few steps, of course )
