I love these stories, and I'm thinking that riding the city bus full of unruly children with DR Elmore aboard, might be just as much fun as driving the streets of L.A. when populated with a bunch of idiots, with BK at the wheel.

I will continue tonight with the 2nd season of Larkspur to Candleford. I love Christmas ghost stories.

We enjoyed this series very much.

Any hints, BK?

I just bought tickets to see the new musical version of "Secondhand Lions" in Seattle at the 5th Avenue Theatre, with book by Cillaliz's close and personal friend, Rupert Holmes!

Sounds like fun. They filmed the original movie about an hour from here.

I'm am hoping I am officially finished with all of the printing and adjusting of ROBERTA, and I can go on to the DEAREST ENEMT fixes. which should take me the next couple of weeks. I'd like to finish before I head off to Dublin. We'll see.

Elmore, when do you leave for Dublin?

If anyone is interested, my review of Kinky Boots is on TuneScoop. It played on Beverley's World of Music this evening. I sent out the usual e-mail blast but there are people who don't get that e-mail who may want to hear what I think about the show. While I loved it, there are others I know who are not as taken with it as I was. As someone on this site says, that's horse racing.

The link is below. Click and you will be taken to the TuneScoop page. Click at the bottom of the page to listen to the review (about 3:25 seconds) or click download to save the mp3 file and listen to it at your leisure.

Well, I need to take a shower and get out of the house for a bit.

I'll be back!

Not yet, but I read the book review in the Times, which makes it sound interesting.

Why? Does he talk about Dom Deluise?

The violence in The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo is nothing compared to really violent films - nothing you haven't seen before and nothing terrible.

Also, Jrand, while the film and English translation of the first book is The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, the Swedish title actually translates to Men Who Hate Women, which is what the book is kind of about.

I disagree about the violence being "nothing you haven't seen before and nothing terrible". Maybe I don't watch a lot of violent movies. But shooting someone that is obviously fake feels different to me than watching a woman being brutally/graphically raped or someone being brutally tortured.

I agree with this though I think they handled it well compared to reading it in the book which was also difficult to do.

It wouldn't play on iTunes for me, but I finally got it to play on RealPlayer. Your review was a lot of fun. I really do enjoy the score for that show.

It was very strange this morning. I am almost always a side sleeper, but this moring when I went back to bed I was on my back Although I am usually a restless sleeper, I was still in the exact same position when I woke up.

Hopefully, this is a good thing.

Unless I had an elephant sitting on my face.
