This was a bad afternoon.  Mark, Stan's ex-son-in-law, sent me an e-mail telling me that he had left me a present on the chair in the entry hall.  I still have a key to the house and the truck.  I went over there this afternoon.  There is one step up to a cement slab in front of the door and then there is another step into the house.  The first step up is probably only six to eight inches high.  I took my time, and went very slowly; but I couldn't get my foot to go up on that slab.  Instead I took a tumble and ended up sprawled in the driveway.  There was no way to get myself up, so I had to crawl over to my car door and use that to get up off the ground.

This is awful! I hope the doctor has good news about your health tomorrow.

No appointment until Thursday.  I will be surprised if I can get out of bed tomorrow

I guess I was hoping it was tomorrow. Tell that doctor he'd better fix you up ASAP or he'll have to deal with HHW DRs and we kick ass.

Becky and I sat and visited at Panera all afternoon.  I stopped at the grocery on the way home, made a taco dinner for Richard and Rob, then went to an AAUW board meeting.  Got home in time to see about half of GLEE.

Thanks, Fred.  Thanks everyone.  It was just so frustrating not to be able to do something so simple.

Trying to figure out how dear reader George found the Outside The Box YouTube channel.  I can't link directly because it takes you to MY account.  So, how does one find a specific channel.  You can't search the title because there are no videos yet.  And I can't see a way to search for the channel specifically.

Nope.  George found it so I'm sure there's an answer somewhere.

DR TCB - Did you try again to get into the house? Or did you just take some time to recover in your car and then drive home? Regardless...

Kritzerland is proud to present its first web series, premiering on November 6!

OUTSIDE THE BOX
Created by Bruce Kimmel

Outside The Box is a new musical comedy web series about a very outré musical theatre group called Outside The Box.  Each episode features an entirely new cast, save for one recurring character, the director of the group.  Each episode features between one and three musical numbers.  The first episode of six (comprising season one) will premiere November 6 on YouTube (the YouTube channel is outsidetheboxseries), with new episodes every two weeks.

The first season features a wonderful array of performers, including (in alphabetical order), Matthew Ashford (Days Of Our Lives), Jason Graae (Forever Plaid, The Grand Tour, Falsettos), Gregory Harrison (Steel Pier, Follies, Chicago, Trapper John), Melody Hollis (White Christmas on Broadway), Nikka Graff Lanzarone (Women On The Verge Of A Nervous Breakdown, Chicago) Beth Leavel (Tony-winner for The Drowsy Chaperone, Baby, It’s You), Barry Pearl (Baby, It’s You, Doody in the film of Grease), Sandy Rosenberg (Mamma Mia), and more.

Written and directed by Bruce Kimmel, each episode features songs by Kimmel – the Outside The Box theme is by Grant Geissman, composer of Two-And-A-Half Men and Mike and Molly.   Kimmel wrote and directed the cult comedy classic film, The First Nudie Musical, and is a long-time Grammy-nominated record producer, having produced over 180 albums, including cast albums (The King and I, Hello, Dolly, Bells Are Ringing, I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change, etc.), concept albums (Lost In Boston, Unsung Musicals), singers (including Petula Clark, Helen Reddy, Liz Callaway, Laurie Beechman, Judy Kuhn, Judy Kaye, Rebecca Luker, Brent Barrett, Jason Graae, Michelle Nicastro, Christiane Noll, and many others), as well as a historic series of jazz cover versions of Sondheim shows with The Trotter Trio.   His label Kritzerland is about to release its 100th CD.

Outside The Box is shot on location in New York and Los Angeles. 

PREMIERING ON NOVEMBER 6!  EPISODE ONE STARS BETH LEAVEL, MELODY HOLLIS, BARRY PEARL, and SANDY ROSENBERG.

It was a treat DR JANE....but I don't know if they are still in production.

It seems you can still get Skybars .

Economy Candy in NYC carries them, as does For The Love Of Chocolate in Richmond, VA.

I believe I've also seen them at Wegman's.

The only reality show I'll watch is THE AMAZIN' RACE.  I caught up with the season opener last night.  A typically fun episode, but I didn't care for the results (but it does set up an intriguing finish for next week.)  There is a good variety of teams, this time, but I have no clear favorites or dislikes as of yet.

I like some of these teams. i'm cheering for Survivor champs.

I like people who can compete competively. So i'm intrigued by the Olympic snowboarders and the kid who sailed around the world.

I really dislike on the first show when they give the last team to finish the first task a penalty.

But what was up with that guy taking the passport and not telling the gas station workers? That whole thing played out so oddly. Who was the guy tweeting? Other TAR fans that told him to go to the airport?


DR Jennifer, remember two seasons ago when the losers of the first competition at the starting line were eliminated right off the bat?

I also think the passport thing was odd because the show had footage of it laying on the ground as the girls pulled away in their vehicle.  Who filmed that?  Did the girl's cameraman stay behind?  (No, because we see them driving in the car realizing the passport is missing.)  Did the production staff just happen to place a cameraman at that gas station?  That seems unlikely.  It couldn't have been another team's cameraman since the girls were in last place.  I hate to think that the filming of the passport on the ground was staged for dramatic effect...

But yes, I can believe that the situation was rectified through Twitter.  Word can travel incredibly fast there.

It is my understanding that when the teams use cars, there is one cameraman with them inside the car, as well as one following them to take all of those exterior shots. I also think they downplayed some of the "Power of Twitter" in order to help preserve the some of the "secrets" of the show.


Or it all could have been staged.

More dental work today.

Since June 29th with a couple of exceptions I have been in the dentist chair almost every single Tuesday. I still have 3 more visits for one tooth and then the final tooth will take another 4 or 5 visits including root canal, prep work and the crown, then I will be done. It was worth it. I have a good dentist (though when he graduates I'll have a new dentist again) and the price was right.

DR Ben - Is your dentist working in "small" stages? Or did you just have a lot of work to get done? ;)
