A Bridge Too Far will be sold out within the next hour - one of my dealers just upped his order so we're just about done.

As for the Topic of the Day...

I, too, was a library person. I spent many hours at various branches of the Arlington County (VA) Public Library System, especially the Central Library.

I do remember when the first Borders Books (no music) opened in Northern Virginia at Tysons Corner. That was a very nice store.  It was just so roomy and cozy at the same time, and they had a cafe too! Alas, once Border's decide to expand, they remodeled that location, then eventually closed and relocated.

bk - Congrats on the book-signing!

*And I think you should go to that "gal's" book-signing... But just sit there reading your book the whole time.

What a good idea!

[JoseSPiano]

Now, off to the screening and the panel. Thanks for all the vibes, and pray for Rosemary's Baby!

~~~~~Have Fun today DR edisaurus!~~~~~

[Ron Pulliam]

Oh...

Apparently my landlord can't tell the difference between ConEd requesting access to the basement to read the meters and turning someone's power off.  At least I finally met the rest of the tenants in the building this morning in the foyer.

Too bad you didn't have some cookies (or Monkey Bread) to pass around.

Nope, but I did have some freshly brewed coffee Chocolate Chip-Coconut Scones to share.

No, Artie the wheelchair guy from GLEE is NOT the actor I am annoyed by - although it turns out the actor first auditioned for Artie.....they say.

Ah.   Yes, he annoys me a lot, too.  But I think that's what they were going for.  Great voice, though, on some of his songs.

Thanks for posting that link to the "ThrillerThe Outer Limits"* complete season box at amazon.com.   I followed the link and ordered it yesterday.  It was delivered this morning.  And I didn't ask for one-day delivery. 



* I had Boris Karloff on my brain for  some reason.  Of course, it was "The Outer Limits" (original series).

[Ginny]

DR Ginny - Is your lip gloss OK?

LOL, DR Jose!  Yes, it's fine and, fortunately, I remembered to take my iPod out of my left pocket.

[bk]

This telephonic interview was supposed to be at eleven, then eleven-fifteen, and now in about ten minutes. 

[George]

Hope it went well, BK!

[elmore3003]

Back from my day out and about. I'm ready for a nap.

[Druxy]

I'm still on Austin time.

 

[JoseSPiano]

I just spent the past couple of minutes watching this:

Councilman Joel Burns (Ft. Worth, TX) Tells Gay Teens "It Gets Better"

And if you have 13 minutes to spare right now, I think you should too.

[Ginny]

Another reason I'm glad to be retired:

Dayton Metro Library May Merge Branches

[Ginny]

Oh, my, that's quite a video, DR Jose.

Now, I need to get myself pulled back together for my movie date with DH Richard - bye for now!

[Matthew]

Hey everyone.  Hope everybody is doing well.  Having a very overwhelming day over here.  Trying not to let it get me down. 

More later...

[Edisaurus]

Vibes to Matthew that you soon become less overwhelmed!

[Edisaurus]

And thanks for the vibes for today!

We had a good screening for a 10AM weekday morning; people laughing and responding the the right places. And the panel was a lot of fun! There were 3 people from one film: 904, about how Jacksonville has one of the highest murder rates in the country (good thing I didn't know that before I took a walk along the river last night!) and the director of BREAKING AND ENTERING, about people trying to get into the Guiness Book of World Records. Our film was the first one of the festival, and some of the audience came over to the panel later. That had a light turnout, but a producer who has a studio in town came to that, a guy I used to work for 20 years ago! It was great to see him and he may have some work for me early next year.

A good friend of mine (former Turner producer) came to both events and then went out to lunch with me, the B&E folks, my "handler" and the travel coordinator and we all had a great time.

It turned out that I was the most experienced person on the panel ('cause I'm the oldest!!) and really had a lot more to say than I anticipated. My friend said that she loved seeing so much admiration lavished on my work and that I was getting the respect I deserved (that I don't get at Turner, she said.)

Now all I have left is the opening night party and opening night film, and then I'll fly home tomorrow AM. I feel happy and relieved and VERY TIRED! I'm going to sleep well tonight!

[Ron Pulliam]

Sweet Dreams, Amy!

[George]

Congrats to you, Edi!!

[elmore3003]

DR edisauris, bravo, bravo, bravissimo!

[bk]

Back from a sandwich and onion rings - picked up two packages (including the DVD of the movie I have to watch today).  Have mapped out the Gardenia show and assigned the songs (tentatively).  Looks like we will announce our new title on Monday - normally I would NEVER do back to back releases like this, but I have to get off the release week I'm on and this will let me do it - then our next release would be two weeks later.

[John G.]

Glad it went well, Edi.

[John G.]

Thanks for the disk, George. It arrived today. I hope to watch it in a day or two.

[bk]

Had a nice call from Linda Purl - she and Gregory Harrison have been trying to put together a two-person show - they've got a date booked in February and are stymied - so she's asked me to come in and help and I think I will.

[George]

Thanks for the disk, George. It arrived today. I hope to watch it in a day or two.

You're welcome!  Hope you like it!

Powerful. Thanks for posting the link. I've seen others post it on Facebook and am glad it's getting around.
