Oh, and Jose, I had to move on what I needed instantly - had a real time crunch.  It was basically a takedown from some digital performer files, and I found someone nearby here in the City of Studio who said they could turn it around for me quickly.  I didn't know if there was some way for me to e you those files or not.

No worries.  I figured it was something like that.  And, actually, with my current technological set up here, I don't think I would have been able to do it anyway.  But, as always, thanks for keeping me in mind.

Yes, I'll be excorting Hisaka.  Don't aks too many questions.

Just watched Night Visitor, one of the single worst movies ever made - my name appears twice in the credits - once in the cast roll (I do what is called a "brief cameo") and once in the thank yous.  I'd completely forgotten I had anything to do with this film - apparently I did a dialogue polish, but the "director" (former producer Rupert Hitzig doing his only directorial outing) preferred the terrible dialogue of the original, save for two or three scenes where I recognize a little "me", including the meet cute of the teen boy and girl at the beginning of the film.  So, I'm thanked for my dialogue contributions, I suppose, and also the fact that I renamed most of the characters, giving them all Hitchcock names.  This made me laugh out loud.  Loomis, Crane, Fremont, Devareaux (from Topaz), Townsend (from North by Northwest), Lisa, Grace (I give one character the name Lisa Grace as in Lisa Fremont/Grace Kelly and another character Kelly Fremont as in Lisa Fremont/Grace Kelly.    I don't know what Allen Garfield and Michael J. Pollard were on during filming, but whatever it was, it was POTENT.

Well...ahem...I could always use some reading material for my flight back to Oregon  :D

Humm, seems something just found it's way into my suitcase!  

Really, DR MBarnum, just remind me to get it for you.  Possibly if we have a break between the walking tour and dinner or when ever we can arrange it.   :)

Don't let the length scare you.  Amidst all of my blather, there's only about 15 questions.  I think.

Frighteningly enough, I remember watching that one at one point or another.  Yep, it's a bad movie.

Indeed DR Jose. Mid Sept flight from OZ to NYC and then train to Toronto and across to Vancouver.
Should have dates organised in about 2 weeks.

I had a first happen at work today.  I finally had a customer hand me a Bible booklet as they paid their bill.

Fortunately, they also paid their bill (it was a husband and wife, prostilitizing over the ice cream).  They were actually very nice, not shrill at all.

I'm just surprised that it took three months for me to get a Bible booklet.

Just wait until you get one that wants to pray over you.   ;)

I also had a yuppie try to cause trouble in my line.

He was basically buying bottled water, three cases of twenty-four bottles each.  The problem was, the bottles are sold in packages of six bottles, each package wrapped in plastic.  Mr. Yuppie insisted that the price listed for the wrapped package of six was instead intended for the case of twenty-four.  The problem was, I had already rung up his entire order, and he dashed over to the Customer Service desk...without first paying.  And, at the time, there were three other people/couples waiting in line.  I had to call over one of the managers, who had to put his order on a computer hold, so we could move his basket out of the way and I could help the others in line.

Of course, after he had been put in his place by Customer Service Mr. Yuppie was mad as hell.  We all just smiled pleasantly and watched him leave.

No, that's not quite true.  We all smiled pleasantly and watched him leave...while trying our best to keep from laughing out loud.

I never had the chance to tell him "Have a nice day."  Besides, I prefer "Have a pleasant (fill in time of day, usually afternoon or evening)."  Mr. Yuppie at that point wasn't going to have a pleasant anything.   ::)

Thank you.  I'm not sure when the photos will be posted, possibly not until I return from NY and you from LA.  When do you return?
