Just got a very nice phone call and if all goes as planned, I will be having lunch with my first Bollywood actor!



Aman Dhaliwal is in the US visiting friends in Seattle and he and a buddy will be coming through town as they drive to Sacramento tomorrow (a very long trip!). I recently interviewed Aman for www.pedrotheapebomb.wordpress.com. which is how we know each other.

That's pretty cool, Mike!  Don't attack him...at least, in public. :D

THE ROCKY HOROR SHO was a "re-imagined" version that was really kind of lame.  The exception was a few of the performers. (I spelled it that way to discourage merry searchers).

RiffRaff, Magenta, Columbia, Eddie, and Dr Scott were outstanding, and the band was great!!!  I kind of thought we were in trouble when "Science Fiction Double Feature" was sung by Phantoms coming out of graves instead of Magenta in an usher's outfit...  I then I KNEW we were in trouble when one of said phantoms sang:  "Janet Scott" and "try-fids....."

Choreography (or lack thereof) was my biggest disappointment.  The set was great, but we had a LOT of missed light and sound cues...

Fun to see....but a lot of missed opportunities....and I might have switched the actors who played Frank and Brad....

Interesting.  Theater Artists Olympia is going to have a fund raiser November 1st so that we can put on "The Rocky Horror Show."  Pug, the director, also has a concept for the show.  It's been done in Olympia several times by a couple of the bigger local theater groups and she doesn't like to repeat anything.  Since she really wants to do the show, she's come up with an idea to make it different, but hopefully will still bring in the audience...hopefully.  Actually, every production has practically sold out, so as long as we can raise the money to actually put on the show, we should do quite well...hopefully. ::)

DR George, I thought the same about LUCKY 7, but some of the actors in it are so good, and the characters are so interesting. I hope that NBC at least lets the season play out.

True, a lot can be forgiven if you have good actors who are at least playing interesting characters. :)

Visual proof of the get together last night.

Sorry TCB, no food (as I warned earlier). Just the diner in the background



Great picture, Ben and Kevin!

Back from a nice lunch with an actor.  We went to CPK, where I had the cedar plank salmon - about four hundred calories.  Then I went to Stan's Donuts and got my beloved chocolate peanut butter contraption - about six hundred calories, so after jog I'll still be way under my 1200.

Back from my errands and the Middfest Friday chaos has begun.  One of the things we (AAUW) are responsible for is distributing the gift bags to the donors who visit our lounge.  As of this morning I had empty bags (not enough, of course) and nothing to put in them.  When I was out I stopped at the office and got a box of souvenir magazines and a box of logo badges and stuffed as many bags as I had.  Later this evening more bags will be delivered to me.  Also, the souvenir coffee mugs won't be ready until tomorrow morning, so we'll probably be adding those as we distribute the bags.

And, there's a good possibility that we'll be moved from the location we've been planning for because another function needs our space due to the weather forecast.

On the bright side, AAUW members have been dropping off food and beverage donations all day!

DR MBarnum - perhaps you can persuade your interviewee to perform a private dance of the seven veils, just for you.      :)

We can only hope the actor never discovers the fantasies going on in Salem this weekend!
