TIGHT SPOT if not today - tomorrow for sure, if the USPS is on the ball.

No pics. Oh well.

Good Afternoon!

Good practice. There's still one brief(!) section that doesn't sit too well under my fingers - but I've been warned that it doesn't sit too well under too many people's fingers, so... Once I get an hour or two on the keyboard I'll be playing, I'll be able to make some adjustments if necessary. In any case...

I'm gonna go ahead and head on down to Times Square. I need to run an errand or two before the show.

Laters...

Barbara Hershey+Jessica Harper=Lena Olin

JMK · « **Reply #127 on:** March 25, 2005, 02:39:36 PM »

Jane, great minds think alike: I actually thought Lena Olin was Barbara Hershey the first time I watched Chocolat! Remember when she was Barbara Seagull? Remember The Monroes? Remember the Alamo?

There are some cute comments from Lasse Hallstrom (sp?) about Lena (his wife) on the commentary track.

Hiya Folks!
I may have to go to the store and get me some Cadbury Chocolate and Caramel Eggs. I should stock up, because they're only available at Easter, and I love those things. On second thought, maybe I shouldn't stock up.

I saw the WIZARD OF OZ photos from 1905. Very strange! They are certainly not of the touring musical with Montgomery and Stone, and I wonder if they might be something performed without a rights clearance from Baum, and the producers Mitchell and Hamlin? Thanks for alerting me to them, DRMichaelBarnum!

I've been stocking up on Easter candy. And on Monday, I'll look around for bargains when the prices are slashed.

DR T-o-O: Do you know an Aussie film that has a plot about a man with gills who lives next door to two women. One he loves, but she won't have him, and the other loves him, but he won't have her. Ultimately, he becomes a fish and begins living in water....or something like that.

Ring any Aussie bells?

Elmore-

Kerry we have 8 Cadbury eggs to send to Craig in Romania. I initially purchased 4 but he asked for more. Considering we have two boxes of Girl Scout cookies along with other junk to send I figured 8 was enough.

No belles or bells here RLP.

I'll ask OzDerek (more of a film buff). He is off visiting his home in the penal colony of Tasmania. That was PENAL.

Hi Tomovz. Do you do anything special for Easter in the land of Oz?

Tomovoz · « **Reply #138 on:** March 25, 2005, 03:34:09 PM »

Of course there is Cadbury Factory right near OzDerek's family home in Hobart Tasmania.

Tomovoz · « **Reply #139 on:** March 25, 2005, 03:38:15 PM »

Hello DR Jane. I find it hard to believe that in a country so influenced by the Christian Right that Good Friday is not a holiday in the USA. Good Friday and Easter Sunday are absolute non-trading days in Australia. No sporting fixtures on Good Friday either.
Sunday is of course Easter Bunny and Hot Cross Bun day.

I wonder if any DRs Remember the 1960 song by The Singing Reindeer - "I Want To Be an Easter Rabbit".
It should be everyone's collection.

I always wait until AFTER Easter/Halloween/Christmas to do the bulk of my bulk candy shopping. A LOT of money is saved by waiting that one day.

I have been told the Cadbury eggs made in England are better than the ones we have. How about the ones made in Hobart?

Many business let employees off for Good Friday.

Hot Cross buns for Easter is a new and interesting fact for me.

Back from a wonderfully wonderful lunch with Miss Tammy Minoff. We went to the Cheesecake Factory. I had the deliciously delicious Spicy Cashew Chicken and we split a dinner salad. Tammy didn't love what she ordered so I shared my Cashew Chicken with her, which was good as I only ate half the portion, which was plenty.

After I dropped Tammy off at her car, on a whim I went to my DVD place - they haven't had anything that interesting all week, but today I arrived just in time - I got Lady in a Cage and Islands in the Stream - very exciting. Also, picked up Ocean's Twelve, which I know nothing about, the new SE of Apollo 13, which I've never seen, and a really interesting Billie Holiday item - two CDs and a DVD in a beautiful package - the DVD contains rare TV performances, and since I only have one Billie album on CD, I thought I'd take a chance.

Photo of the bear coming shortly.

I always found LADY IN A CAGE, a rather sordid, awful movie.

WARNING: POSSIBLE SPOILER COMING UP!

Isn't it the one with Olivia DeHaviland and a rather nasty incident involving knitting needles and a very young Jimmy Caan?

Well, I had a lovely little jaunt in my brand new red Toyota Corolla Sport into Silverlake where I picked up some interesting books on the Norman Conquest and Troy. And also visited a little wine shop that specializes in small little vineyards. Got a Chardonnay and a Shiraz from an Australian vineyard called Woop-Woop and another Australian Shiraz under the label of Piping Shrike.

I've always found Lena Olin very sexy and a rather good actress and I'm somewhat mystified why she never became a bigger star.

When anyone else comes to the site for the first time after being somewhere else, do you have to wait for it to load in? I've been having this problem lately...only when I come to the posts though Everything else downloads in perfectly fast.

George · « **Reply #149 on:** March 25, 2005, 04:56:28 PM »

I haven't noticed. When I'm at work, I have several applications running at once. I'll log in to HHW and then call up something else. When I refresh the browser to get new posts, I also go to something else and come back to HHW. So, it's actually more that I haven't really paid attention than haven't specifically noticed. That doesn't help you, does it?
