Happiest of Birthdays to Mr Charles Edward (The Fly, Hercules) Pogue.

Mr Pogue is the ONLY writer I know (internet-wise) who is on a first name basis with BOTH Mr Harlan Ellison AND Miss June Wilkinson AND appeared onstage with Miss Cyd Charisse!

DR MATTH - The transfer of ICE STATION ZEBRA seemed fine to me...good color and lots of detail (of course I have been watching it on a tape from TCM for quite awhile).  The music sounds wonderful, I have always liked the score - and the 5.1 soundtrack is very nice.  I remembered as I watched how much I like ALL of the ambient sound of the submarine when I saw it in CINERAMA, many years ago.

Though it's not a GREAT movie, it is one that I enjoy....and Hudson, Borgnine, Brown, and McGoohan are all very good in their roles.  In fact I like everyone except the cross-eyed Russian colonel near the end of the movie!

What can you tell me about a dish known as a Kentucky Hot Brown?


Perhaps she's a relative of Sweet Georgia Brown.

We had about three inches of snow which means people are driving one of two ways:

1.  Going faster than ever to try out the snow tires.
2.  Going ten miles an hour in case they spin out.

I hear they are both hot dishes!  8)

DR DtM - thanks for my Date With an Angel....which also had Nancy Kulp and Richard Deacon AND as one of the shoppers, Miss Hazel Pierce who was Lucille Ball's stand in (and an extra) on many episodes of I LOVE LUCY and THE LUCY SHOW and HERE'S LUCY.

Elmore and Ginny -  Are you having dinner at Artie's on Friday night before the Barbara Cook show?  

If so, can I glom on to your reservation before the show (since I was having a little trouble finding a reasonable place for after the show around Lincoln Center anyway).

Many thanks for all the B'day wishes!  I also received a lovely E-card from our very own Hisaka.  Though I'm getting to the point where I somewhat ignore Birthdays, this one looks to be a pleasant one.  Yesterday they began bringing in my library shelves and fitting them to the room.  By the end of the week, I should have a completed library and will be able to unpack all the books from their boxes and get them up on the shelves.  That will be the best birthday present I could get.  I will, of course, post pictures once the library is completed.

Woody, you've pretty much got the history and description of hot brown down.  Originated at the Brown Hotel.  Turkey, Ham, Bacon, and tomato open-faced on toast or bread, slathered in a cheese sauce (a white cheese sauce, if I remember correctly).  I've not had it in years, but I remember liking it.  I used to get it at Columbia Steak House up on Limestone in Lexington.  I actually almost had it for lunch the other day at the Fava Restaurant on Main Street in downtown Georgetown, but I find it a tad heavy for mid-day.  I'm also not just not sure how that cheese sauce would go down these days.

Good morning.

I awoke to murky skies and biting temperatures. As the morning as progresed, the clouds have moved out, and the skies are beautifully blue. The temps aren't going much of anywhere, however, and there is a breeze blowing. But the rain which was rpedicted for today might have gotten here last night. No rain in sight today.

ENjoyed the additional pictures last night and yours also, DR Ben, this morning.

I especially thought it was very cute to see DR Jose's face poking up between two other DRs. Gave me a hearty laugh.

DR Jason, I believe you have lost some weight, too! You and Jose are going to be our poster boys.

In addition to four hours of episodic television I recorded last night, I also got TCM's screening of Billy Wilder's A FOREIGN AFFAIR. I have never seen this film all the way through, so I am looking forward to seeing it tremendously.

Absolutely, DR FJL!

My computer access is very limited this week, but I logged on to do just a few things and one of them was to make contact with you about Friday evening.  I will send a private message to you with my cell phone number.

Thanks, DR JRand, for your take on ICE STATION ZEBRA. I may get it this week since I'm not interested in acquiring anything new that's being released next week.

I was slightly tempted to get TIME TUNNEL, but I can see them for nothing on Encores Mystery Channel, so maybe I'll satisfy my need to see them there rather than forking over the money for a handful of episodes (Only 15 episodes in the set, and they're asking $40 list price for it. Outrageous.).

Greetings from Times Square!  Well, actually, West 46th St., just off TS.

As you saw in the photos, DH Richard and I made it here in time for the lovely dinner at Barrymore's Monday night.

We spent yesterday at the American  Museum of Natural History, had dinner at Sarabeth's Kitchen, and then attended Jonathan Pryce's opening as Lawrence Jameson in Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.  We had recently watched the movie and thought the musical was a vast improvement.

I agree with you, DR Ginny. I thought the original film BEDTIME STORY was pretty lame and the remake DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS didn't make it much better. David Yazbeck's score is just what the doctor ordered to take this trifle and make it entertaining.

I'm staying home.  I'm self-medicating.

I cannot produce sufficient spit to keep my tongue from sticking to the roof of my mouth, but my sinuses aren't draining/running.

It's a rainy day.  And my feet are cold.

I need a hot cider and a roaring fire.

Thank you all for the lovely anniversary wishes yesterday.  DH Richard and I gave each other this trip as our presents, because when you've been married 25 years you don't need any more stuff.

So, I'm off now to figure out how we're going to spend the first day of our second quarter century of married life.  Probably indoors (another museum? Columbus Circle shopping? a matinee?) because it's raining.  Tonight we're going to the home of a Michigan friend for dinner.

Bye for now!
