Good morning to all.

Good morning, good muffin to you

Had an busy day yesterday.

I went to work early and tried to leave a little early around 4:30 as I needed to get up to Palm Beach by 6pm during rush hour. I managed to get home, walk the dog, change and start driving and arrived just in time.

I met Alex Rybeck for dinner at Colony Hotel and then afterwards saw the wonderful Faith Prince in concert.

Feel great and rested this morning, ready to face the day... or whatever

ASK BK

Have you ever done the touristy stuff while in DC? Gone to the White House?

Oh wow, this is such so silly, if you know The Bodyguard and know the Whitney Houston songs - this is how they "shoe-horned" the uptempo "I Wanna Dance with Somebody Who Loves me" into the London musical. Apparently, even the guy who plays the stalker in the show gets to sing a few lines of the song.

This was done on a night Heather Headley was out, so it's her understudy, but this feels like the ultimate in working a song that probably doesn't fit into a book show by hook or by crook!

A Messenger from Cole Porter.... is the name of my new musical revue.

DR CILLA LIZ how do you think Juan is doing? I think he is doing great and then I listen to the call in shows, and stupid people say things like... "He was attacking her....so she shot him....." and there isn't "enough evidence to show premeditation..." and stuff like that.

I wish Juan hadn't talked so much about her story that she got a gun in the closet and shot him....there was NO gun....but now it's been talked about so much, a lot of people just accept it as a fact.... I am afraid there is going to be one dumb ass on the jury that will argue something that illogical, and all that work will be for nothing.

I don't think they have proven self-defense, so hopefully that won't be an option for the jury.

IF BABY I'M THE BOTTOM YOU'RE THE TOP is the name of the new book of pick-up lines, I mean book of Cole Porter quotes

Did that line really pass muster seventy years ago?

Did Noel Coward really have to write a suggestive version of YOU'RE THE TOP? Isn't the real song suggestive enough?

Here is a better picture of Miss Precious.

Loved the photos of MR BK DR KEVINH and Miss Sandy..... And that was SOME plate of food!

I'm sorry for what they put you through, Cilla, and sad that they sometimes make it so tough to be a really committed defense attorney in our society. So glad you have a practice area that is so satisfying that you can go to.

Ask BK:

So, you like the calorie counts on the menu. Is that the first time you've seen those? Do you think you'd pay attention to them every time you dined out?

I ask because a friend of mine was raving with delight when she first went to New York because the nutritional info was there on her menu. By the third meal, though, she just wanted to order what she wanted and not be told how potentially bad it was for her.

I think that it's great if they have the calorie count. But i don't think it should be on the main menu. There should be a section in the back.

I am so jealous reading about bike rides. I want to go on one so badly. But now with the snow storm we had yesterday it will definitely be weeks before all the snow is cleared.

DR Cillaliz yesterday was the first episode of DWTS. That is odd that your mom thought they were all lousy. Maybe she does not consider that it was their first week. I saw lots with huge potential.

I really enjoyed the dancing, but then I didn't like the all-stars concept at all and I'm happy as an audience member to have a normal contest back to enjoy. I love when people who get kicked off are good sports about it and sticks round and come back during the season, which seems to happen a lot.

I loved the all star season.

What I don't really enjoy watching are people who don't push themselves to their greatest ability. For instance on Monday's show we had DL Hughley and Andy Dick. Both of similar low capabilities.

Yet I could not have been more disappointed in the first. He was so bad. But I was so impressed with Andy. He was amazing for what he is capable of doing. He was fun, funny, charming, cutesy. I could not have been more shocked that I liked his performance.

I've wanted to have a bike again for the longest time. It's been years. And it's such good exercise. That's probably something I should get for myself this spring.

I had heard that the dirty lyrics were actually Irving Berlin's.

Great seafood photo. I'm hungry again. And it's been 13 hours since I had Chinese food!

On my way to work today, I started listening to "Copenhagen." Have had the discs for years but never listened to them. I had read the play, and it really stayed with me. But I'm glad I'm listening to it. I love the way Michael Frayn writes, and the way the cast handles the script. Thanks, BK, for recording it.

Thanks for that info, John G!

And indeed armed with that info from John G, here it is found on google. [warning: PG-13 language at the link]

For those who might not know, Ebirah is the monster that Godzilla fights in the movie SON OF GODZILLA.

DR JRand and DR ChasSmith, thinking back to the recent discussion on HHW of Del Tenney movies, particularly HORROR OF PARTY BEACH, did you know that this CD is now available?

Yes, indeed...and it is for sale on Amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/Zombie-Stomp/dp/B00B2RUN66/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_nC?ie=UTF8&colid=2VVWOA4GKYKRB&coliid=I304UCNMG36J88

I will be ordering my copy soon!
