And they said we'd never reach page four - we have, no thanks to certain errant and truant cheerleaders who certainly must have had a pleasant Sunday ignoring one and all and also all and one on this here site.

Dinner was fabulous.  A place called Amber India at Santana Row in San Jose.  I've never had Indian food and it was quite scrumptious.  I think ever-lovin' Eric's mission in life is to open my mind to different foods, it's working!

North By Northwest is always welcomed viewing, but what the heck does it have to do with Halloween?
I think Charles is going for the suspense angle.  After all, not everything that is spine-tingling is about ghosties and ghoulies.  And, what with the local Sea Witch Festival, which coincides with Halloween, the ghosties and ghoulies is a bit overdone, not to mention co-opted for other purposes.

Besides, we just got rid of the tourists for this year.  It's time for us locals to celebrate our holidays with class!

I just watched some of the documentary work that goes with the 2-DVD set for Strangers on a Train.  Much as Farley Granger is a nice fellow, I don't think he had the inner strength to properly play Guy Haines, or at least not the Guy Haines I've met.

I have been errant and truant (and even truant and errant) all day.  I even missed tonight's chat...but with good reason.

I went to bed VERY late last night (actually this morning...I was just dinkering around on the computer, working on project for work) and didn't get out of bed today until noon-thirty or so.  After I woke and showered, I got back on the computer and continued working on this project for work.  It's a PowerPoint presentation that has photographs of these life-sized Lewis and Clark cut-outs that were photographed visiting several of our library branches.  I'm putting together a narration and background music soundtrack to accompany the pictures.  The whole thing will then be presented at our All Staff Day in October.  I don't quite remember how I got tricked...uhh, selected to be part of this, but "selected" I was.

Because I'm going to be busy having fabulous European adventures. And I didn't say I wouldn't post at all - but certainly not at the rate I usually post...

Anyway, I worked on the project for work until about 5:00 when I went with my family (my sister, my niece, my parents, my sister's boyfriend) and my sister's ex-mother-in-law (who lives next to my sister) to The Olive Garden to celebrate the birthdays of both my sister (Diane) and her ex-mother-in-law (also named Diane), which are on September 27 and exactly 20 years apart (and they both married men named Marty!).  My sister will be 40 and her ex-m-i-l Diane will be 60.  Everybody had something different.  My niece had Capellini Pomodoro (Roma tomatoes, garlic, fresh basil and extra-virgin olive oil tossed with capellini, which is angel hair pasta).  My dad had the Tour of Italy sampler plate.  My mom had the Create a Sampler Italiano with calamari, stuffed mushrooms and toasted meat ravioli (which she didn't like, but I did!).  And I had the all-you-can-eat pasta.  I started off with roasted garlic alfredo (very good!) and whole wheat fettuccine.  After that I had the four-cheese marinara and spaghetti.  I had too much, but it was damn good!  For dessert, I had the chocolate lasagna...to die from!  (a Jerry's Girls reference)

Jane, thanks. Good to be back.  I haven't really seen any footage from what's going on down in New Zealand.  My NBC producer was going to try to send me some of the digital dailies to my computer yet.  As far as he can tell everything's okay and they seem to be filming what we've written, minus the usual line here or there.  We'll see, we'll see.  I never expect anything to be as good as the script.

I have REVENGE OF THE MIDDLE AGED WOMAN on in the bg. Comedy is hard to write, people. This being a case in point.
For and earlier version of this film, consult STOLEN, ONE HUSBAND w Valerie Harper, Elliot Gould and Brenda Vaccaro.

Hello all. I have been out and about all day. Among other things, I went to "singing school" at a neighboring church. The thought of my singing should bring fear to you all.

George - Lewis and Clark are no excuse for being E and T. Martin and Lewis, maybe, but not Lewis and Clark.

Normally, I would agree with you, but today I was gone all day.  After dinner we went to my sister's house, I only got home about an hour ago.  Tomorrow I HAVE to get to work early so that I can leave early because my niece and I are going to the Seattle Storm (women's basketball) at home playoff game!  This is the second time that they've gone to the playoffs and on Saturday, they won their very first ever playoff game...and it was an away game!  Tomorrow they have a game at home and they have a much, much much (that's three muches) easier time of winning when they play in Seattle.  It should be a very good game!

Anyway, on Tuesday, I am starting a house-sitting gig and I have to be there at 7:00 to meet with the owners one last time before they leave for Europe (maybe you'll see them, Panni! ;) ) for a month!  And the person who is putting the whole presentation together wants everything done by Wendnesday!  I'm not going to be home Monday or Tuesday night!!  So, I'm going to be very busy this week!

I think NBC made a rather large faux pas in not casting me as Hercules, now that I have abs and buns of steel.
