It's a grey day here in Manhattan.

I spent yesterday after work in the dentist chair. Today after work I'm going out for a drink with two colleagues to celebrate my 20 years at the Foundation Center. I started, full-time, on October 1 1991. If they included all my time it would be 28 years. I began as a temp in 1983 when I was still an actor and from 1983 to 1991 I worked at the Foundation Center at some point during each of those years, even if it was only for a few weeks. Wow, 20 years. Whoda thunk it. And I'll probably be here another 7 or 8 years since I can't afford to retire unless I win the lottery. I like to do those luxurious things, like eat and have health insurance and live in a decent apartment.

Congrats on your Anniversary at Work, Ben!

My calendar says that today is the beginning of the Hindu festival Navratri, and that tomorrow is Rosh Hoshanah.

I need to stop buying my calendars at the Dollar Tree.

Why? You're practically world-travelled!

Did anyone yet catch the new show PAN AM?

I really enjoyed the four actresses who play the stewardesses and the actor who plays the co-pilot, but the actor who plays the pilot...not so much...he both needs a haircut and to look a little older (he looks like a teenager!).

The first episode was sort of Ok, but I suspect it is a show that will grow on me. I will give it a few more weeks.

We haven't watched it yet, maybe tonight. From your response we might only be watching one episode.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #101 on:** September 28, 2011, 04:00:46 PM »

I shall watch it again soon DR ELMORE.

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.......I got the dreaded credit card email.....over $1100 in unauthorized charges, so my Visa card has been cancelled and I have to wait to get another one......sometime in the next two weeks.

I think I got all the charges off.....all of the charges were internet based.....and of course now I cannot access my account.

Most distressing - but NOT as distressing as getting the bill and THEN finding over $1100 in unauthorized charges.

Not sure how my information was taken.....but Peggy from USA PrimeCredit said probably from some Merchant Account. I have only used PayPal and Amazon, so that is scary.

Been doing errands and whatnot, picking up a couple of packages. CDs are shipped, Kickstarter t-shirts and Blu-rays are shipped, and orders have been coming in for both Blu and CD - mostly combos, which is great.

REVENGE is on tonight after a lot of ABC comedies.

DR Jane, PAN AM wasn't bad, it is just that this first episode lets you get to know the characters' stories, so the basic plot line of the show hasn't really got going, yet.

If the future storylines are interesting then I think this will be a winner. I sure like the "look" of the show....and I have never been a fan of Christina Ricci...but I really like her in this.

Got going. Is that correct?

Jane · « **Reply #107 on:** September 28, 2011, 04:06:25 PM »

DR Jrand have you set you account up so you can do a daily check on your charges?

Vibes you only pay for what you owe.

You need to get Ant in a Broadway show. Then he can take care of you in the style that you would like to become accustomed.

What a good idea! I don't know you could do such a thing.

Facebook will be making some sweeping changes in the look of our Facebook pages. These changes (this time) actally sound kind of neat...I guess you can have your page change now to the new look and be ahead of the game...I may do that, as I prefer to be in control of when my page changes...and then when it changes for everyone else I can calm them down by letting them know how nifty it is....and what I hear from those who have already changed to it, it is nifty. We shall see.

According to the news report I heard on the radio on the way in, the paving project on I-66 that started the week I started rehearsals for OKLAHOMA! will be ending... wait for it... this weekend.

Belated page 4 vintage Bollywood B movie poster dance.

One of my favorite posters from one of my favorite Bollywood B-rate movies of the 1960s.

DR Cillaliz, do you have a favorite on DANCING WITH THE STARS yet?

Not sure who mine is yet. But i have a few contenders.

I like Kristin and Mark. I still like Hope and Maks. But i was disappointed with her this week. I know she's busy. But she is athletic and has potential. But it didn't seem like she put the time in. Her jive kicks were pretty bad.

Surprisingly i love Carson and Anna. I don't normally like people who aren't very good. But it is obvious that he is completely uncoordinated. Yet he put in the most time to try to do the best he could. I respect that. And he loves it so much and is so fun to watch.

I also sort of like Kym and David.

Undecided about Ricki/Derek and Karina/JR. Both teams are very good. And i like both of the pros. I think these teams could go very far.

I like Karina and JR the best right now. Not sure about the rest. I picked the person who went home. Didn't mind that a bit
