TOD:

Sort of annoying is that in a relatively mediocre discourse on anything, someone will drop in the word "whilst" as though their thoughts merited an "olde English" touch. "Methinks" is another. No one can be accused of writing Shakespearean thoughts on the internet, so why the odd-ish toss-in of words from that idiom?

Methinks thou dost protest too much

Thursday morning greetings! My book group meets here tonight to discuss The Art Forger by B. A. Shapiro and I've just made 2 of these:

What? Is THAT?

I recognize the angels' food cake (or is it?) What's on top and what's between the layers??

I wonder how it would be using Birds custard in place of the vanilla pudding

oh wait, never mind I know how it would be because that essentially is how I make a trifle, angel food cake sliced layered with Birds' custard and fresh fruit never put the chocolate on top but think that will find its way onto the next trifle

I had two of those low-cal no-fat hot dogs for my evening snack. Very filling, but hopefully not harmful calorically.

I do hope you're all checking out Rob Stevens' reviews - he's had about ten up in the last five days, from the Hollywood Fringe Festival, all great reading. You should make it a habit to always check Now Playing AND Donald's radio show. Use the damn site.

I prefer to be called Uncle Mike by my nephews, nieces, grandnephews and grand nieces. However, some of them call me Monkey Mike.

When you have a niece who has two black children, you don't want anybody calling you Uncle Tom!

I just found the most amazing thing EVER on You Tube. My very first commercial - playing "young" Mr. Whipple. Be afraid, be very afraid. It WILL be in the notes shortly.

Well, I must be off. I'm ushering for Comedy in the Box. It's an evening of stand-up comedy and should (hopefully) be very entertaining.

Until later!

Well, the show was pretty good. There were three comics, and I only saw the last five minutes of the first comic and probably five minutes of the second comic because I was also helping with concessions. After the intermission and the third comic (and the head-liner) was on, was I able to watch most of his set. He did not hold back with the language, and a few people didn't love everything that he talked about, but I thought that he was pretty darned funny.

After the show, I bought one of his DVDs for only $10. He autographed it for me, too! HOWEVER, when I got home and put it in the DVD player on my computer, it wouldn't play! WTF?? It turns out that he sold Region 4 DVDs from Australia! He said that he lives part of the year in Australia, so I think his wife is from there.

George · « **Reply #198 on:** June 20, 2014, 12:08:05 AM »

Anyway, I just sent an e-mail to Chad, the house manager, and suggested that he might get some complaints from (most) people who won't be able to watch the DVD. I have a region code-free DVD player that plays it without any trouble, so I'm not concerned at all, but I'm sure that just about everyone else who bought the DVDs tonight will not be able to watch them. $:-\$
