Media report - DVD: we just watched the first episode of a BBC series called NEW TRICKS. Richard loved it and I found it OK. Alun Armstrong, who played Threnardier in the 10th anniversary Les Mis, is in the cast.

we love this show. It airs on our local PBS weekly

This is from the Times blog. Was Theoni Aldredge 78 or 88? (Rep[orts seem to conflict.)

"January 21, 2011, 12:46 PM
Theoni V. Aldredge, Costume Designer for ‘Chorus Line,’ ‘Annie,’ Has Died
By PATRICIA COHEN
Theoni V. Aldredge, the designer of the fabulously feathered transvestites in the original stage version of “La Cage aux Folles” and Little Orphan Annie’s red dress on Broadway, died Friday morning in Connecticut, said her husband Tom Aldredge. She was 88.

Considered one of the greatest costume designers of her era, Ms. Aldredge created the clothes for more than 300 stage and film productions, including “Gypsy,” “A Chorus Line,” “Dreamgirls” and “42nd Street.” She won an Oscar in 1975 for “The Great Gatsby” with Robert Redford and Mia Farrow, and three Tony awards for “Barnum,” “Annie” and “La Cage.” In 1984 it was nearly impossible to take in the Broadway season without seeing one of Ms. Aldredge’s deliciously innovative costumes: five concurrently running shows (including “La Cage”) put 1,000 of her creations on stage at the same time.

A full obituary will follow.

An earlier version of this post gave the wrong age for Ms. Aldredge when she died. She was 88 not 78."

Time to head home and get ready for the series finale of "Medium."

We still have the previous episode to watch.

Thank you for the compliments on my photos. I wasn't fishing for them. I really do see a difference in the clarity. I just remembered I took the photo of the clouds over pilot rock through the car window while Keith was driving, plus Pilot Rock is very far away.

The far away and the moving photos are tough.

Good Evening!

And, yes, the cold-cold temps are starting to blow into New York City. Literally.

Just finished "The Boys." Great music. Sad story. And it makes me want to catch the next Gardenia show more than ever.

Very worrisome Word issues today - first time ever. Started on the liner notes - I got a pop-up window that said I had too many windows open and to close them - of course, I had no windows open whatsoever. Then I tried to save and another pop-up window came up that asked if I wanted to save a rescued version - I said yes, but it never did it. I went to close the document and it wouldn't close - got another pop-up that said Word didn't have sufficient memory - say what? I finally highlighted everything and saved, then finally was able to close the doc. When I opened it again, the last section I'd been working on wasn't there. Luckily, I just cut and pasted it back and all was well and I had no further problem.

Then when I was writing just now for the book, the same thing happened and THAT scrared me like crazy. I went through the same things, highlighted the previous twenty pages just in case, then closed out of the document. When I reopened, everything was there. But I sent a copy of it to myself via e-mail, and I know the computer itself saves everything via Time Machine every forty minutes or so - still I really don't like that sort of stuff. I haven't been able to find out anything online about it, and I may call Apple tomorrow to see if they have any suggestions, although I'm sure they'll just tell me to call whoever makes Word for Mac.

BK, have you rebooted at all? Sometimes that resolves that sort of error

Without knowing the name of today's notes, DS Zach just told me how much he loves Orange Chicken.

BK, I believe you had this problem a long time ago, maybe when you were PC'd (so to speak). You can alleviate it sometimes by deleting NORMAL.DOT (yes, that's DOT after the .). That file will automatically reconstitute itself when you start Word the next time. I have to do it occasionally.

I have been playing my facebook games and looked up to find Ricky and Callie on the couch together. Ricky was giving Callie a bath. They let me take a photo. Now if I can just find the cord to put the photo in my computer

Finally found something about the problem and the solution seems to be, as Cilla notes above, to restrart the computer. Sometimes if you're working a lot in Word and you don't restart, it saves up all sorts of things that eat up memory - when you restart apparently all those useless things go away and you start with fresh memory. It's just odd I've never had this problem on any Mac before.

It's more of a Microsoft Word problem.

I'm uploading two Brain From Planet X videos - it really takes a long time to do so - I've got more to upload after that. These are all the edisaurus-edited videos from the original LACC production.

And boy does it make the computer run slowly.

Here's the first of the two videos - Good Girl/Bad Girl, with Merrill Grant and Grady Williams.

Where has JRand been all day? I was hoping for a dream interpretation and he is out lallygagging.

Just finished watching an Audie Murphy western called SHOWDOWN (1963). It costarred Charles Drake and Kathleen Crowley. I had never seen this one before and I quite enjoyed it.

Encore Westerns has been showing a lot of old Universal studios westerns, which are my favorite westerns of all.

MBarnum · « **Reply #172 on:** January 21, 2011, 11:48:02 PM »

And fans of WAGON TRAIN may be interested to know that Encore Westerns has begun to show the old reruns of that tv program.
