Be sure to return that umbrage the way you found it. Some else may need to use it.


Geez, Mike....I dunno...are you sure you want used umbrage?


I suppose burnt umbrage would be okay.

Glad you enjoyed, and survived, the voyage, DR JRand!  I love the Indiana State Museum.

While driving to the hospital for CR, I heard the tail end of today's Fresh Air with Terry Gross on NPR.  Tomorrow's guest is Stephen Sondheim talking about his new book.

As expected, i did NOT win the Ebb award, but with hearing the work of some of the people who made the final list of eight, I'm kind of thrilled that i made it to that level. 

I can't say who the winner is because that won't be revealed until the season finale, i mean until the Ebb people do their press release -  but it's someone really great (who's done an album with BK), and I was at first surprised that he's still considered an up-and-coming writer, as opposed to someone who's already made it.  But a terrific choice, since he obviously met the criteria from a commercial point of view.

An honor to be nominated and all.....hopefully you get a certificate.

Jrand - The foundation representative who called said I get a letter saying I was a finalist.  I'm hoping it is suitable for framing. :)

I don't think this is a still from any of DR MBarnum's fave films!



Oh, I don't know, the guy on the far left is a possible date for Mr. Barnum.

Yesterday, I spent about 15 hours driving to the set and working as an extra on "Bernie." It was the first time I've ever been paid to go to church.

We spent all day filming four scenes in the First United Methodist Church of Bastrop, which is in a tiny town about 95 minutes from San Antonio.

During the four scenes, we saw a funeral, then we saw Jack Black sing three hymns. During the last one, the audience got to sing "Blessed Assurance" along with Mr. Black while Shirley MacLaine made evil eyes at someone across the aisle.

Don't know if I made it into any scenes or not, but for one I was two rows behind MacLaine, during a funeral, while Black sang "Just As I Am."

During the last scene, she was in the next pew over. Really charming and spent time talking with some of the children who were extras. She was also funny in her way, while Black was funny in his.

I thought this was supposed to be Shirley MacLaine's funeral?

DR Vixmom I'm very pleased your mother continues to improve.

I haven't read "Me & Emma" by Elizabeth Flock?  After reading far too many, our club tries to avoid stories about dysfunctional families.  If you read the book please let me know if you like it.
