JMK-
Hilarious. Who knew I would awaken your inner Van Impe?

"Regarding his extraordinary memory in regard to Bible verses, Van Impe has said that he has memorized 14,000 verses, and that it took him 35,000 hours to do so."

How did he also have time to play the accordion???

Of course he didnt' memorize them in order!

I think the obvious choice for pre-show music is The Van Impes.  Nothing screams "comedy thriller" like Jack Van Impe on accordion accompanying his lovely vocalist wife Rexella.  :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, TPUNK!!!!

Happy Birthday, TPUNK!!!

And best vibes for the show, Bruce. The writing is the star of this show - whatever technical or talent snafu's that ever did or could happen, the writing stands. The story is the story. End of story.

DR Ron, don't you have any thoughts to share about the figure skating last night. I would never imagine that you didn't watch it.

I saw two performances....Amber Corwin (doing the same routine she did last year -- and ?? the year before?? -- and doing it badly) and a replay of Sasha Cohen's routine.  

I wish I could warm up to Sasha but she doesn't do a thing for me.  She's like a little robot.

Without Michelle in the mix, I have little-to-no interest this year.

I only saw a few minutes of Will and Grace (during the commercials for Dancing With the Stars).  I'm not that thrilled with the way they film the live shows.  I only saw the little guy from Boston Legal. And some spraying fight with Grace, Will and Jack.  Not extremely funny.

BK, best wishes to you and the cast tonight, I'm sure the show will be a smashing success.  Things always have a way of pulling themselves together at the last minute.   ;D

Happy Birthday, T'Punk, I hope you have a great day!

Did anyone watch Dancing With the Stars?  I was upset for Lisa Rinna and Tatum O'Neal. I thought the judges were very harsh on them.  And way too generous to Stacey (who i like) and even to george hamilton.

I must say I hate how they end the show. They used to put up everyone's scores so we could see them. But now they don't do that and instead just announce who is in what place. But they confused me with a bunch of the middle ones, cause i could not tell if they all had the same score!

I voted for Lisa Rinna.  I assume that her and Tatum are in jeopardy.  Basically P Master just has to get more fan votes than the person in 2nd to last place. So he could be around for a while. :(

Good Morning!

Well... I guess it was a good thing that I was at the "smelly" theatre last night instead of at home watching the "stinky" live episode of "Will & Grace".

;)

*I did some blurb about missing props... Hmmm... ???

Well... It's still a bit cloudy and foggy right now, so I'm thinking I may just stay put today and putter around the house.  -I'm taking care of my laundry right now.  Exciting, huh?  However, the big after Christmas markdowns start today at Macy's and Hecht's, so... We shall see...

DR JRand, wait a few weeks and then watch CLOSER again. I found I enjoyed it even more the second time around, and I thought Clive Owen's performance was even better upon "closer" examination.

I also think he should have been the next James Bond, not Daniel Craig.

Michelle Kwan is elegance and grace personified, and I'm hopeful she'll have a full recovery. After watching last night's short programs, I wouldn't hesitate to put her on the Olympic team. But, of course, the long programs will tell the story.

BTW, during the broadcast, I was pleased to see one of my favorite male skaters Mark Mitchell interviewed as he's part of the International Skating Panel who will decide if Michelle's petition to be added to the team will be honored.

Amber Corwin's routine was sad (though she did land one of the few triple-triples of the night among the ladies). Alissa Czisny, who's gotten all this hype this season after winning a silver and gold in Grand Prix events, had a disastrous skate, and she still finshed 5th.

The scoring rules may have changed, but judges can still manipulate scores and prop up their favorites.

OH!

DR TPunk and company - The last time I was at La Cocina, I happened to try one of their coconut margaritas... Not bad.  *And I think that I've now tried all the flavors from their "2 for 1" list.

Thanks, DR MATTH.  I plan to watch it again soon.

As for Sasha Cohen - her attitude gets onto my last nerve, so I don't care if she EVER wins anything.  The certainly mouths off much better than she skates.

Since some of you guys like skating will any of you watch Skating with the stars?  I must admit i'm quite curious to see how they will do. Although it is on Wednesday's at 9pm (when LOST is on).

I was pleased to see one of my favorite male skaters Mark Mitchell interviewed as he's part of the International Skating Panel who will decide if Michelle's petition to be added to the team will be honored.

Despite feelings some may have about her day being done, I think she remains one of the most popular skaters in the world...and certainly the best female skater I've ever seen...and any decision to exclude her/deny her petition would probably result in a great deal of outrage and a loss of public support/interest in figure skating.

Lord knows, the men aren't pulling in any fans.

DR Matt, I agree with about Michelle Kwan. She is a beautiful and elegant skater. I would not hesitate either to put her on the team. I have read this is one of the weakest competitions they have had in years. Time will tell about Michelle.

I curious to watch the ice dancing to see if the one couple does well. Their names escape me at the moment but Congress naturalized her to be a US citizen so she could compete for the US.
