Is the Pony the dance that Richard Simmons does?

So I was just at the store looking for folders for school, and this guy walked up and said, "Hi, stuff." I figured he was just talking to the merchandise and didn't say anything. Turns out he was calling me Steph because he thought I was somebody named Stephania. Wasn't this a great (although pointless) story?

Would it not be best to delay your trip until they are found?

I'm at work and have not had much chance to catch up (or even ketchup) on the notes.  I'm just starting page 6.  I figured I'd better do the media check before it's too late!:

In my CD player at work:  The Apple Tree, the original Broadway cast.  I've never had this and I just got in from the BMG Music club...buy one get THREE free!!  After that will be the OBCs of Pipe Dream and Allegro.  I got these from eBay from the same seller.  

In my DVD player:  "Head On."  It's sort of a gay, Australian Zorba the Greek.  The lead, Alex Dimitriades, is absolutely gorgeous!  (and he gets totally nekkid!! :o ;D)  But it's appropriate for the character!  No, it really is! ;)

I couldn't find a dancing pony but I did find two things I would like to share-

One is for BK since he has discovered the joys of scanning:  


AND I hope you know that you really should still be singing the notes BECAUSE it isn't over until........





Wait for it..........







Wait for it...........











The FAT lady sings!

You may now stop singing the notes, if you so desire.   ;D :D ;D

No bra ever for me either. When I played Greta in BENT, the dress had cleavage sewn into it. Greta's breasts were made of birdseed. Yep!
I've heard of the girl with the flaxen hair before, but the girl with the flax-seed hooters?

Limbo!  Mr. Mac Man and I did the Limbo - he's quite good at it.  He showed me the things I needed to see, helped me through some programs I hadn't explored and answered all of my questions.  I downloaded the contents of one of my home grown DVDs and am about to rip a copy - a first.  I also went through iMovie and iDVD, and man, am I going to have some fun.  Also got a twin-pack DVD of those swingin' sixties movies One More Time and Salt and Pepper, starring Sammy Davis, Jr. and Peter Lawford.  Oy.  And the other Hullabaloo dancer of note was Michael Bennett.  His rack was pretty small, too.

(Does anyone else think the cast of "Will and Grace" is looking decidedly older/chunkier?  Earlier this season, only Debra Messing seemed bloated...now they're all looking that way).
It's a tribute to Classic Star Trek, particularly to William Shatner, who would get a little that way mid-season every year.

I've paused from the 45 minutes it has taken to read pages 1-9 today to post that it is indeed raining here in the Bay Area.  It has actually rained most of the week, but today, it's windy also.  A good night for staying in.  More later when I finish reading the posts!

Why can't I think of any more rain songs?  I know there are hundreds.
If it hasn't been mentioned yet, I love the Eurhythmics' "Here Comes the Rain Again."

Finished the post.  Will take the rest of the day/evening to take care of the DP as he seems to be ailing from something.  He's sleeping now.  Nothing to report for the media check as everything has been on the iPod... Oh, we are watching Sex and the City Season 6 part two on DVD.

I'm currently ripping a DVD.  It takes a while - there seems to be three long steps - the image transfer, the track transfer (which took the longest), and something called verifying.  Of course, by long I mean it's taken about fifteen minutes to do a two hour DVD.  It should be through in about three minutes and then we'll see if it actually worked.

You and Mr. Mac Man doing the Limbo together???

DR George,

I had mastered all these when I used WordPerfect, and haven't bothered to re-learn them for Word. Do you have a checklist with the various codes? Thanks.

DR Matthew (or anyone else who has SEX & THE CITY season 6 part 2).  Can you go into detail about the alternate finale endings.

I think they showed one on Entertainment Tonight, that showed all the girls sitting at a coffee shop with Carrie saying that they would all be marrying her (or something stupid like that).

I am very curious.  Thanks

Btw, for those who are interested, PBS is showing CANDIDE January 12th (or check your local PBS station's listings).

Btw2, I got to watch the WHAT IF dvd.  And I really enjoyed it.  My favorite parts were the Yiddish Sondheim, the opening and finale We're gonna do a revue, and the Phantom What If.

I think my favorite solo performance was Alet singing "When you're waiting for him." (by BK).

I think I was most impressed with Alet.  She's so beautiful and consistently knocks everything she does out of the ballpark.

I will say more tomorrow.  But I wanted to say one thing about Ryan.  While he was probably the most uneven of the group, he was also the funniest.  His Phantom imitation, and "Don't Rain on My parade" antics were hysterical.
