And as for the Strawberry Beard Papa Cream Puffs... No chunks of fresh strawberries, but I could tell the pastry cream was flavored with fresh strawberry puree. Very refreshing.

DRs Ben and Ant - Any plans for tomorrow night? or Friday? I'd love to see you guys before I head up north.

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #183 on:** July 27, 2005, 07:32:07 PM »

Well.. Time for a little bonding with my new roomies... We're going to watch a DVR of "So You Think You Can Dance?!?" -Should be fun!

And did Donald call her "Ann" or "Ann-Marie"?

Are you slippin', Dan (tM)?

And did anyone think Donald was really good enough for her?

Nooo, I'm not slippin'! Ann Marie's entire name was Ann Marie. Marie was her surname, Ann her given name. That was a running joke--she would tell some one her name was Ann Marie and they'ld say, "Ann Marie what?"

I forget--what was the name of the magazine at which Donald wrote? I want to say Today's News, but I think that was the magazine that Doris Day worked for on her show.

I just remembered--it was Newsday.

Jose: Good for you!! I'm glad you're taking that gig.

Yes, the squawking laugh of the Scarecrow in DR. SYN creeped me out as a kid. Really gave me nightmares.

I saw it as a two parter on Walt Disney Presents on the Disney Channel a couple of years ago, and the laugh still was creepy to me.

Matt H. · « **Reply #187 on:** July 27, 2005, 08:03:20 PM »

On THAT GIRL, Don worked for NEWSVIEW Magazine.

I spent a leisurely and nostalgic evening with Mary Tyler Moore, or at least with her show. Watched 6 more episodes, and all were various degrees of wonderful.

And seeing such pros as Nancy Walker and Jack Cassidy as guest stars, well, I just miss them SO much.

Matt H. · « **Reply #189 on:** July 27, 2005, 08:08:32 PM »

Since I saw one complete disc of MTM today, I don't want to overdose on them, nor do I want to watch them all right now, especially if we have to wait another long, long stretch before we get any more seasons of them.

So, I think tomorrow I'll pop in a DVD movie. Perhaps CALL NORTHSIDE 777 or LADY IN A CAGE. How's that for strange bedfellows?

Matt H. · « **Reply #190 on:** July 27, 2005, 08:09:58 PM »

Speaking of LADY IN A CAGE and Olivia De Havilland, I see that HUSH, HUSH SWEET CHARLOTTE is coming up very soon in a Fox Studio Classics anamorphic DVD. Won't this be the first time it's been offered on home video in its correct aspect ratio?

Another day of power outages all over the city. The demand for electricity has been so great during these last few days that circuits have blown leaving folks without power. Luckily, I have been spared any inconvenience.

Matt H. · « **Reply #192 on:** July 27, 2005, 08:14:30 PM »

I would love to see the two seasons of THE GHOST AND MRS. MUIR again. I really loved the show growing up. THAT GIRL was a favorite, too.

Matt H. · « **Reply #193 on:** July 27, 2005, 08:17:43 PM »

A very big surprise to me when pre-ordering THE THIN MAN COLLECTION. It was ranking as the #1 selling DVD on Amazon today. I never would have guessed that these wonderful old films would rank that high.

I'm back and caught up on the posts. Just what up was doing on the posts I'll never know.

What I thought was going to be a three or four hour day turned out to be an eight hour day - we really did quite the track for Opposites, and the girls were really excellent together.

Matt H. · « **Reply #195 on:** July 27, 2005, 08:32:50 PM »

Still 85 degrees here as it inches ever closer to midnight. Again, not a raindrop in sight today. SUpposedly we will have rain the next two days and by the weekend will have highs only in the low 80s.

Matt H. · « **Reply #196 on:** July 27, 2005, 08:33:41 PM »

So, I must put myself to bed now. TOmorrow will be another full day, I suspect.

FJL · « **Reply #197 on:** July 27, 2005, 09:12:12 PM »

Alone on the board again. Second time today. I may get a complex. But then, the complex I live in is fine, so I probably don't need another one.

Odd doings at the seminar today. I visited the business center at the Marriott Marquis during our lunch break to check email and such, and a man sitting at one of the other computer terminals just looked at me and asked the name of the leading lady in the SPIDERMAN movie. I said, without blinking, Kirsten Dunst, he said thanks and just went on typing. An odd moment.

Then the fellow who sat next to me ended up winning the door prize (believe me, I've never seen a door prize at a tax seminar before) which prize was sponsored by UBS Financial Services. I sort of expected that he would have been handed a bag full of money or stock or something like that; it just looked like a lot of software. But what are the odds that someone I didn't know who happened to be sitting next to me would win the grand prize?

Plus the tax seminar ended up being punctuated by a one-hour live infomercial (in the guise of a tax lecture) by someone trying to sell us on selling our clients long-term care insurance. He scared the heck out of me. I called home and said next time a telemarketer calls about long-term insurance, let's not hang up.

Tax Lecture Concluded (TLC).

DR Jason - Thanks.

...As soon as I said, "Yes", out loud, it just felt sooooo right.

The final part of my decision involved the people I was in the audition room with earlier. There was a respected director, a respected casting director, a composer, a lyricist and a playwright. When I mentioned that I was offered a job up at Williamstown, their response was not, "Oh, that's very nice, are you going to take it?" Rather it was, "Oh, you'll have a wonderful time up there. Congratulations!". -Like there was no question that I was NOT going to take the gig.

I talked to my friend, the director, for a bit, and he made a very good point: There are tons of people who apply to be a part of Williamstown every season. Only a few get the call. I didn't even apply this year - and I have in the past - and now I've been given the opportunity to get up there.

Carpe diem.

Sorry about the glare in my eyeglasses.

*Btw, do not try that at home... I took that pic while I was driving. Fun with the self-timer on my digital camera.

-We'll give it a few days...

Maybe I'll go back to that pic of me in the pit....

Hmm...

I like DRMATTHEW's avatar frahn-say as well!

MR BK will you be seeing Mr Tony Walton in the next week or so?

DR DtM - actually Doris worked for TODAY'S WORLD magazine - first as secretary to editor Mr Nicholson, played by McLean Stevenson - then as a reporter for editor Cyril Bennett played by John Dehner.

Jrand73 · « **Reply #206 on:** July 27, 2005, 10:12:58 PM »

Thanks, DR TOMovOZ - perhaps DR FRANCOIS can help me out! I appreciate the suggestion.

Very close to my new personal plateau here at HHW!
