DR Jose how is your weather?  The loacl weather forecasters threatened us with another 3 - 6 inches  of snow between 1 am and this morning but all we saw was a light dusting,   the clouds look omnious however.....

Sorry, I meant to answer this earlier...

Well, after the fact, we had a typical winter day.  No precip, but temps in the 30s.  A cold front is moving in, and we're supposed to be in the 20s tomorrow, but it's supposed to warm up a little bit this weekend.  Rain/sleet/snow is expected on Sunday - it will all depend upon the air temp.

And that's the weather... Over to you, Mitch, with sports!...

And you told me you didn't speak Tagalog.

Pshaw!

Well... Only the words that count!

 :o

Of course, all those words are food:
lumpia = Filipino eggrolls
longanisa = A type of Filipino sausage, a cross between Spanish chorizo secco (dry) and pepperoni, but on the sweet side
pancit = The national noodle dish of the Phillipines.  So many variations, but a bunch of them do contain longanisa.

...Like I said, only the words that count!

 :D

Btw, "pshaw" is not Tagalog.   ;)

I read you were discussing fave comedy couples ....

I'm going to take the Wonderdog for a short walk, then a spot more writing. Not sleepy. Might as well use the time constructively.

Now I'm hungry....

*Btw, I haven't had any refined sugar since Monday!  I even passed up the three dozen Krispy Kremes that were brough in today.  And the two tubs of Trader Joe's cookies yesterday.  And so on, and so on....  The real test will be not "sampling" the next time I bake, which I think will be Friday, so...

OH! I'm off tomorrow too!  After my morning baby-sitting, I may actually watch a DVD or two (yes, DR MBarnum, it's on the top of the pile), and/or go out and see a movie in the theatres!  And then tomorrow night is Must See TV which I haven't seen in a while.  -Of course, since the decline of Must See TV has been reported here on this site and elsewhere... But I do plan on watching "ER"... The previews... Ooohh!

I think the first comedy couple I remember as a kid was (were?) Laurel and Hardy. Except I remember them as "Stan es Pan" which is how they were known in Hungary. But I know I didn't see them in Hungary -- so I must be thinking of what my mother called them when we saw their old films on TV in Canada...

OK... Time for me to get some sleep.  I'm gonna have to wake up earlier to get the house ready for Uncle Jojo and Alyssa's Big Adventure tomorrow.

And remember...

No putting your feet on the furniture in BK's living room unless BK says it's OK.  OK?

;)

Goodnight.

Well, I've written the new notes and now I can relax and smell the Diet Coke for the next hour.  We've had no posts for the last half-hour, not that I'm complaining, mind you.  No, no, I am not complaining, mind you.

A great documentary.  Runs rings around the other "pretender", Broadway: The American Musical.

Now playing: Richard Rodney Bennett's stunning music from Yanks.

In the Irony department (right next to Ladies Lingerie)... When I went to take the Wonderdog for a brief evening walk a lttle while ago, I found a book in an envelope lying on my doorstep. It had been left by the world's quietest messenger service, as I didn't hear a thing. The book was accompanied by a letter from a production company asking me to read it and see if I "respond to the material." They're going to make it into a CGI feature - the first of a trilogy. To cut to the chase -- I read the first chapter. It's narrated by a bird -- who calls himself "The Chooser." Honestly. Would I lie to you?

I believe Skip Homeier was also in at least one, if not two, of the terrific Budd Boetticher/Randolph Scott westerns.  Comanche Station?  Night all.  Today has been...dare I say..."interesting"...

PS to JMK, maybe it was Judy Geeson Tabori was living with?  Think it was. She was cuter than Susan George.

I used to be quite taken with Judy Geeson.

I shall be up for a while, obviously.  And tomorrow's topic will warm any screenwriter's heart.

And tomorrow's topic will warm any screenwriter's heart.

Is it about using production notes for target practice? Banning the word "arc" from the English language? I'd think of more if I weren't tired...

May I just say the word "pudding".  I believe that will be the word of the day.

Pudding.

What a fine word, and not used nearly enough.

Underpants was also a fine word.  Pudding and Underpants.  Um - perhaps I shan't go there.

Hello all.
I am alive and well and on the way to being mended.  Thank you all for the multitude of good vibes that have been sent my way in the last five days.  I'll be back on the board more regularly as soon as DR Jed gets his butt out of my computer chair :)
Only kidding...he's been very kind about keeping me up to date on the goings on of the board.  When I'm able to sit up for longer periods of time, I'll be able to make more appearances.

Pudding and underpants...can't see much that they have in common.  That's probably a good thing.
