Using the AMAZON drop down menus for "returning" my LOST HORIZON takes me in circles and I can't find the right combination to get a new one.

I'm just going to return mine for credit and reorder it later...maybe directly from the Warner site, even though it'll cost more.

A Question for BK:

Quote from: bk on November 16, 2011, 09:36:31 AM

Melody's mom sent the announcement to the nice fellow who actually keeps the dog and trains it (the owner/trainer has trained others to train) - the dog is great and that guy is great - but he was so excited and happy that he sent it to the owner/trainer never imagining this guy would react like that. He's sorry he did now, but I don't blame him. Entitlement and greed. The names of the game. Again, if we were not using the two little images in a photo collage with twenty other little images that you can barely see because there are three prominent things on that cover to which the eye goes - a large photo of Melody, her name, and the title of the CD. It was ridiculous but he would not even address my points - would not even acknowledge my points were in the e-mail. And we weren't using HIS photographs - he did not own these photos they were taken at Musical Theatre West and I can tell you they would have no problem given size and placement and the photo collage, which, by the way, is a new piece of art if you want to look at it that way. His contention is that his contract with the Annie people is such that he can approve and control any use of any image of any dog used in a production of the show. Again, if we were FEATURING it, calling it out, using it to exploit sales, he MIGHT have a point - he had no point given the actual use.

BK, did you update the picture on Kritzerland.com or does it still have the original photo?

Ginny · « **Reply #64 on:** November 16, 2011, 12:23:41 PM »

I used to teach a bit about copyright to aspiring teachers and told them to be VERY careful with what they reproduced because you never know when something like BK's tsuris can come up. My students would just roll their eyes and look at me like I was Chicken Little, but I still say you never know...

Find your order number and then have them call you via the Contact Us link. My new one was delivered in 48 hours.

I live close to the London 2012 Olympics site. As a community representative, I've just been to a meeeting and presentation by the local Council about their plans for dealing with the huge number of visitors expected, and the logistics of transport, moving traffic around the area etc during the Games. All interesting stuff but one thing is for sure, as a resident in the area, it's going to be extremely difficult to get around with all the swarms of Olympic visitors. I had a property company contact me recently asking if I wanted to rent out my house for the duration, because of the difficulties visitors will have in finding accommodation; not to mention premium hotel prices.

But, Douig, if you rent out your house, where will all of us stay?

I must say that one of the things that crossed my mind when my Mother died in 1997 is that I no longer would have a free place to stay at the SLC Olympics. Politically incorrect, but true.

That's actually one of the nicer things I thought about my Mother when she died in 1997, but I digress.

I have to disagree with you partially on that. I think he can be very funny, though the humor often makes my skin crawl. I thought "Extras" was hysterical, "The Office" was more difficult to watch. I don't like humor that sets people up to be embarrassed.

I just saw a "before-and-after" ad with the headline "57-year-old mom looks 25."

What I saw was a woman who looked to be about 67 who now looks to be about 47. A nice transformation, but nothing like the headline.

Sooo, how did she do it?

My first thought was "Are you going to rent out your place?"

Sounds good.

Yeah, if they left off the tofu and the pineapple.

I sepnt the last several hours composing a letter than I am sending out to a lot of friends and the few family members that I have left. I am offering them a promissory note to be redeemed at the end of January for any financial assistance they can offer right now. I kind of feel like, "I will gladly pay you Tuesday, for a hamburger today."
