Well, you've read the notes, the notes were in Pluto, which was in Uranus, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're currently wondering why Mars is in Uranus when clearly Pluto wants to be in Uranus.

And the word of the day is: DISSERT!

Marry, I shall not dissert unless
Mary prepares dessert and we

Tomovoz, that one was you-inspired!

Good morning, all! Today I have to resume a lot of the life I dumped about three weeks ago, and we'll see how it goes. All this sudden readjustment to my regimen is driving me mad: every time I feel a shift in my metabolic makeup, I panic: did I eat too much? not enough? did my sugar level drop too low? am I heading into a coma? It is not conducive to a peaceful sleep.
On the plus side, I got out of bed ALIVE this morning, I have work and a place to live, and my ER nurse from last Thursday is now my friend on Facebook, so that's quite exciting; she's realy quite wonderful.

DR JoseSPiano - sorry, forgot to mention: Nice product placement! ;)

I'm going to a birthday celebration this evening. A dear friend turns 80 today and he's having a celebration at his apartment. He lives in a very nice building full of famous people. He bought the place many years ago and couldn't begin to afford it now. It will be great fun, I'm sure. We (Anthony and me) made his presents since "what do you get for an 80 year old who has most everything". We made a CD of music from the year 1928 including large doses of music from musicals of that year. He was interviewed in the New York Times in 1989 (a short article) and I found it, copied to a Word document, jazzed it up with fonts and color and put it in a frame and Anthony made some of his signature candy bar wrappers. He buys a box of Hershey bars and makes up a person specific wrapper on the computer to wrap around the outside. It's the (in this case) Greg Bar. I don't have any examples to post here but if I find one at home I will post it later.
I'll also tell you about my trip later.
The office is a madhouse so I must get back to work!

bk - So did Billy Porter and his team "update" the sound of the show as was indicated in its press release?
There was certainly more percussion than I remember, and it didn't sound as good as the original - at least my memory of the original.
-
So for Ask BK Day...
Is there a show or two that you think would benefit from an update of its sound? -Whether through its arrangements and/or orchestrations.
Certainly I wasn't fond of the updates to A Chorus Line, as you know. I'm a fan of the original orchestrations of most shows, so the redos, for me at least, are usually problematic. For example, I don't like Tunick's reduced orchestrations for 110 In The Shade but do love the originals. I gather most of the redos these days are for monetary reasons, cutting down the band size.
But unless it's part of a concept, I'd keep the originals every time.
-
My question for Ask BK Day:
When they finally invent a time machine (and you know someday they will) and you get a chance to go back in time, do you have a list of people whose butts you would like to kick?
DR Sandra has quite a list made up.
Oh my yes. And I'd kick those butts BEFORE they could do anything horrid to me. And I'd kick them hard.
-
I'll be spending much of my birthday watching one of my favorite shows, MEDIUM, in its fourth season box set. I watched the first two episodes today, and I should easily finish the remaining two episodes on that disc and the four on the next disc, too. Really love the show and am looking forward to them.
-
I suppose I'm up.
-
And why didn't someone mention that the old mystery series from the 1960s - HONEY WEST - is now available on DVD.
That may be a birthday present to myself!

I survived yesterday's dental visit (thanks for the vibes, Sing). I've never had anything really awful done at the dentist, but this was something new and I was really jittery about it. Thankfully, I have an excellent dentist, with the best bedside/chairside manner in the world. I will hate to lose him.

Sorry to hear about your troubles, Danise. There has been lots of trouble and strife among my friends lately. I blame it on the planets.

Bk, in the notes:
...the police are not enforcing the law and I think someone should file a class action lawsuit against them for ignoring it.
Well, there is no law requiring the police to enforce laws.
The best you could try for would be a civil action against a City Council, the County Sheriff's department, or the CHP. Next you would have trouble establishing standing - you have not been injured by the non-enforcement. In the bizarre circumstances in which the case could go to trail (it's tough suing governments without their permission) and you should win a victory, as a Tax Payer, you would be obligated to pay for the damage awards plus the court costs and lawyers' fees on both sides. Not such a bright move!

Glad you're enjoying it, and please write an amazon review when you're done - still waiting on Cilla's and Vixmom's and hopefully the vixter's when she finishes. Having the amazon reviews really helps.
Rewind IS a work of fiction. At some point, I may go back and revisit the years (and they're not over yet) as a record producer, but the way I'd originally intended - as a non-fiction work.

I've been a-listening to Ricky Ian Gordon’s operatic setting of John Steinbeck’s The Grapes of Wrath.

It's definitely more opera than musical theatre, but if your taste runs at all in that direction, I'd say a definite "yes"!

I saw the production, and I wanted to stand and yell "it's an opera parody" because nobody in that production sang well enough. You don't listen to a singer do "Glitter and Be Gay" and wonder if she'll have the high E-flat or wonder if, after the a cappella cadenza to "You Were Dead, You Know," the singers will be in the same key as the band.

Every September 3rd I visit here just to see whether I still exist or not, and today . . . it's . . . finally . . . happened!
I am non-existent!
Just wanted to say thanks for all the birthday wishes and to send my greetings in return, from the "space BETWEEN the spaces."
You know, existence isn't all it's cracked up to be. Someday you'll all understand.

Thank you, DRs derBrucer, Matthew, and George for the birthday greetings.
And I'm keeping my fingers crossed about Hanna myself. Having survived Hugo, I'm SO terrified that I won't be as lucky if Hanna comes through with anything like a similar force. There was destruction all around me - literally trees through people's roofs beside, behind and across the street from me, and despite having four huge trees in my yard, all I had was a few dead branches in my front yard.
-
I had friends who saw "Graps of Wrath" and loved it. I'm not a fan of the composer.
-
I did manage to watch five episodes of MEDIUM this afternoon which leaves 9 left to watch in the package. I won't finish them today, but should have no trouble finishing them tomorrow.
There's that wonderful episode where Allison dreams about a deaf girl and goes deaf herself. A horrifying situation featuring Stphen Culp as the father of the kidnapped girl.
-
There's that excellent episode that had Bridget making friends with the telephone solicitor in India and warning him about his house being broken into. (And that wasn't even the major story in that episode).
-
The only bonus features so far have been four shows that had deleted scenes which had commentary by the creator-producer. They were right to cut the scenes as they offered nothing of interest.
I noticed that the bonus featurettes are all on the last two discs which I haven't gotten to yet.
-
Anyone have a recording of Kander and Ebb's song "Pain"?

Not me, but I've experienced "pain" if you want any metaphors.

You know, I did not understand a word of this!
-
You know, I did not understand a word of this!
Well, let's see....what I got out of that statement was:
That "Candide", for all intents and purposes, IS an opera.
That the production in 1999, for all intents and purposes, did not present it in a manner that was true to its operatic pedigree.
That the singers could not sing the score as it was meant to be sung.
That he was filled with constant doubt as to whether the singers would hit the proper notes during an a capella (i.e., sans orchestra) start to a song...and whether the notes they did hit would match the key the orchestra would be in when it started playing.
That, on the whole, he considered the entire production to be a huge waste of time.
But I've been known to be wrong.

Any idea why he would visit today and determine that he is "non-existent"?
-
You know, I did not understand a word of this!
Poor, poor Mikey!
My testing kit arrived and I still don't understand the booklet!
-
Well, let's see....what I got out of that statement was:
That "Candide", for all intents and purposes, IS an opera.
That the production in 1999, for all intents and purposes, did not present it in a manner that was true to its operatic pedigree.
That the singers could not sing the score as it was meant to be sung.
That he was filled with constant doubt as to whether the singers would hit the proper notes during an a capella (i.e., sans orchestra) start to a song...and whether the notes they did hit would match the key the orchestra would be in when it started playing.
That, on the whole, he considered the entire production to be a huge waste of time.
But I've been known to be wrong.
That's close; I think CANDIDE is exactly what it was billed to be in 1956, a comic operetta, rght up there with Gilbert & Sullivan and Jacques Offenbach.
Otherwise, I think you got it. By George.

Cadenza - isn't it something like a cedar chest?

Any idea why he would visit today and determine that he is "non-existent"?
Our host's notes had the comment!
-
Cadenza. Wasn't she a character in Maury Yeston's TITANIC?
-
Welcome back to Mr Brockman Snr.

For I second, I thought that Mr. Guest was welcoming us to CraigsList.com. . .
-
Anyone have a recording of Kander and Ebb's song "Pain"?
I've got it on videotape when I appeared in Kander and Ebb's AND THE WORLD GOES 'ROUND. Not audio recordings, alas.
-
I guess I need to hop off line now and start doing some preliminary writing on MEDIUM. Then, it's back downstairs for more of it and tonight's prime time line-up.
-
I've got it on videotape when I appeared in Kander and Ebb's AND THE WORLD GOES 'ROUND. Not audio recordings, alas.
DR MattH - I have one of those!!! Duh! Not your recording, but one of another production. What I'm doing is putting together an Addendum CD to the OCR. Now, where did I put it.... :P
-
I have been expecting the Blu-ray (a bk notes reference) edition of GREY'A ANATOMY for the last few days, and it still hasn't come. I did get a Danny McBride kung fu parody movie today, but no Blu-rays.
Alas.
-
Our host's notes had the comment!
Ah, yes. I recall that now. It could have been very unsettling...if there were anyone to "be" unsettled.

And now, I'm finally going!

We are paying no attention to that man behind the curtain.

But we DO want to see the Wizard.

I did watch the press reels from THE BOY FROM OZ last night, does that count as seeing the wizard?
-
After Hugh, who could I watch but Olivia Newton-John in her concert from the Sydney Opera House. Between some of the songs, ONJ takes a tour of Sydney and its environs. I've always loved the sound of Manly Beach.

You'd probably also enjoy Studland, on the southern coast of England!

I don't even remember being "Wicked".
Thank you for the news about the "ACL" documentary.

Leaves of Grass: A Nude Choral Reading of Whitman's Iconic Song of Myself
SYNPOSIS:
A daring new interpretation of Walt Whitman's most groundbreaking poem, 'Song of Myself', as realized by a chorus of 25 diverse and fully nude performers.
What will they think of next??
Hopefully, grass skirts!
-
I had a Subway turkey sandwich for lunch. It was okay. The good news is it's only 560 calories, so I can definitely have something else later.
-
I'm just puttering around now until rehearsal, although I have to go back to the mail place - I picked up some mail and one package, only to find out that another package was there that they neglected to give me. When I called, they denied having another package until I told them who signed for it, the exact time it was signed for, and which carrier delivered it. Then they suddenly found it.
-
But we DO want to see the Wizard.
That HAS to be a euphemism!!! :o

Poor, poor Mikey!
My testing kit arrived and I still don't understand the booklet!
Well, I suggested for you to get a "free" One Touch monitor from the endocrinologist which you did not go to, where they could give you the machine (for free) and show you how to use it....except that you didn't go.
Instead you went to the general practice doctor that you think is no good.
PS: With your current diabetes situation it really is imperative that you begin to go to a specialist.
But don't let me tell you what to do

I can do nothing without a referral from my HMO "caretaker" (funny, right?), so stop bitching about an endocrinologist I have no referral to visit. I'm not happy about this, but that's the state of HIP art. Dammit!

Apparently, Rob Ashford, choreographer of Curtains and Millie and Cry Baby is being brought in as a show doctor for Shrek. Never mind that Mr. Ashford has few directing credits (one, I think), he's the man they call. And everyone says that now the show will get better and be brilliant. I simply remember when another show doctor, Rob Marshall, was brought in to save Seussical. Didn't work.
-
There are very few Evening Primrose left (under 100 I think), so if you've waited and procrastinated, now might be a good time to order.
-
Same with Scent Of Mystery.
-
Same with Une Chambre En Ville.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DR MATT H!!!!

Happy Birthday DR Joy!!!
-
Happy Birthday DR Sigerson Holmes!!!
-
Happy Birthday to our own Dear MattH!
Enjoy your birthday, take a break and don't clean anything today!
-
Matt, I am also worried about Hanna. Our neighborhood is full of huge old trees that are stressed by the drought. I have at least a dozen hovering over my house. Thank goodness there's a basement where we and the cats can escape!
-
My question for Ask BK Day:
When they finally invent a time machine (and you know someday they will) and you get a chance to go back in time, do you have a list of people whose butts you would like to kick?
DR Sandra has quite a list made up.
This is the best laugh I've had all day...thank you DR Laura
-
And The Song Of The Day Is: I'm An Ordinary Man
Well..I'm Back!
Israel was Wonderful and Exciting. I will elaborate more in the coming days.
It's wonderful.however ,to be back home.
Happy Birthday To DR Matt H and to all the Birthdays while I was gone.
YEAH!! DR Arnold M Brockman is back and he had a good time on his trip. Glad to hear it.
-
I'm not particularly worried about Hanna.
But I am expecting to get called in to work on my second day off this week.

Then how are ya gonna make funnel cake?? :-\

I had a funnel cake at the White Sox game a couple weeks ago

Dear Elmore:
Jessica's Biscuit (http://www.ecookbooks.com/c-124-diabetic-cookbooks.aspx) has 186 books in their diabetic section. Some of them are probably crap, of course, but at least it's a goodly selection, and you can peruse and compare prices.
Oh, the link provided should take you directly to the section.
-
I've been perusing the TV Guide fall preview edition.
I may get a lot of sleep this year, instead of watching television.
Either that, or TV Guide isn't anywhere near as good as they used to be in getting me excited about new shows.

FULL FUNNEL NUDITY - that's the name of the new adult bar/funnel cake store in our neighborhood

HONEY WEST did indeed come out yesterday, as well as SUPERNATURAL SEASON THREE and DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES SEASON FOUR.
So many dvds, so little time.
P.S. TD came out yesterday, too.

I just HAVE to ask -- did you request a referral?
-

Maybe I'd better go see it again. ;)
DR George, I love to see previews and I hope I have the chance to watch another show develop the way I saw CURTAINS develop. I'd say if you liked it at all and you can see it again....go to SHREK again!
-
I have never had a funnel cake.
-
I just HAVE to ask -- did you request a referral?
Of course, and I'm waiting for the referral to be MAILED to me. Oy!
-
I never saw a funnel cake
I never hope to see one
But I can tell you any how,
I'd rather see than be one!
OH wait...that's a purple cow, isn't it

DR Ron, they are wonderful, deep fried batter with powdered sugar.
-
It will be down to 46 degrees tonight and only in the 70s tomorrow I love it

This afternoon I took the girls to the vet for their shots. We lost track of when they were due in the vet change and they were a couple months overdue. It was quite the adventure. I got them in their carriers without incident. Then the 20 + minute car ride to the vet. They talked and talked and talked and did everything they could to display their dislike of traveling in the car.
Then we got to the vet and you would think they both forgot the meaning of meow. They got their shots (Callie gets the extra benedryl since she has had reactions) all was well and on the way home, Boo found her voice and certainly let me know that she did not enjoy this trip at all.
They are now home and it looks so far so good. I am especially glad that they have had their rabies shots. We haven't had a bat yet, but it could happen any time.
-
DR Ron, they are wonderful, deep fried batter with powdered sugar.
One word: YUMMY!! ;D
-
DR Cilla-If I join Facebook, as you suggested, & request an invite to belong to your group of friends. What do you do if you don't want to accept me? Have you ever done that?
-
DR Ron, they are wonderful, deep fried batter with powdered sugar.
Yes, they always look delicious. I've never been anywhere they were being sold...that I know of.
-
One word: YUMMY!! ;D
Ah...you're just SAYING that to make me want one.
;)
-
DR Cilla-If I join Facebook, as you suggested, & request an invite to belong to your group of friends. What do you do if you don't want to accept me? Have you ever done that?
Well, you request people individually and you can see who someone else's friends are. You can ignore a request, but I've never done that. You can also set your profile so that only the people who are your friends can see it. My "group of friends" includes many HHW denizens. That's why I thought you might enjoy being there.
-
We watched a video today of the horse Keith has always wanted. Click Here (http://video.aol.com/video/dog-trapped-in-horses-body/2100806?icid=200100397x1208744409x1200505218)
-
My doesn't know.
I believe he is referring to Charlotte Drake Cardoza, a character in the musical based on the real-life passenger Charlotte Drake Cardeza.
-
If you set your profile so only your friends can see you, how do new people find you? I thought it was great Ginny reconnected with the friend who found her.
-
It will be down to 46 degrees tonight and only in the 70s tomorrow I love it
Hope you're sendin' that weather our way!
-
You can find names of people but not see their profile without asking to be a friend. Or you can set your profile to be public and others can see it. If I'm saying anything that isn't right I hope other facebook people will correct me
-
Hope you're sendin' that weather our way!
I'll put in the order right now ;D

Good thoughts they stay that way. Trips to the vet with the cats, I sure don't miss that activity.

Boo is hilarious. My cats have always been terrified going to the vet. She lets me know exactly what she thinks. At least that's what it seems like to me

Are we sure that MBarnum and elmore didn't go to California and get married?
-
If you set your profile so only your friends can see you, how do new people find you? I thought it was great Ginny reconnected with the friend who found her.
It's your full profile that only your friends can see.
I found my friend because she'd listed herself under both her current and former (maiden) names. I modified my profile to do the same.
-
Nothing fancy for dinner tonight. Der Brucer mentioned hamburgers yesterday, when he spotted a magnificent tomato at the farmer's market. He's also mentioned sweet potato fries, because one of the people at our local gourmet shoppe sold him on a special bottled sauce that she said goes great with sweet potato fries.
Time to get cooking.
-
Are we sure that MBarnum and elmore didn't go to California and get married?
Elmore has much better taste than that.
And he isn't old enough for Mikey.
;D
-
DR Jane - I just sent you a Facebook invitation. I've never used that feature before.
-
P.S. TD came out yesterday, too.
Was it good for you, too?
-
DR Cilla-If I join Facebook, as you suggested, & request an invite to belong to your group of friends. What do you do if you don't want to accept me? Have you ever done that?
I would never do that to you, DR Jane!
As a matter of fact, I'm going to jump over to Facebook and REQUEST that YOU add ME as a friend! ;D
-
I haven't found Jane on Facebook yet. . .
-
The bank has countered our offer - kinda silly what they are countering, but definitely doable on our end. We shall see....
-

Welcome back, Arnold Brockman! We did our best to fill in for you, but it just wasn't the same!

That's so true, but we do sound like the Bickersons.
I can't wait to see you in matching Bickerson burkhas.
-
DR Jane - I just sent you a Facebook invitation. I've never used that feature before.
I'm filling it out now, only with a different email address so Keith won't be bothered by all the email I'll receive ;)
-
I haven't found Jane on Facebook yet. . .
I only see you on MySpace.
-

I didn't realize that it was still in previews.
It doesn't officially "open" in Seattle until September 10. I don't know what it all really means.
-
DR Ginny-You are my first Facebook friend.

I only see you on MySpace.
Got it now new Facebook friend. I used the wrong first name. ;D

I only see you on MySpace.
I found YOU! ;D

DR Jane - the horse video really made me smile! :)

So far, so good, DR Matthew!!! We're rooting for you! :)
-
Horses always make me smile.
Is that a That's nice! :)
-
DR Jane - the horse video really made me smile! :)
Your invite made me smile.
Now Facebook said "You have no more friend requests." :( ;D
Where did Cilla go? I want to know if she received my invite. Facebook went screwy (apologized but didn't explain) when I wrote her.
-
Did anyone have trouble finding Me, vs the other person out there with MY name?
-
Is that a That's nice! :)
YOU
ARE
WICKED!

DR Singdaw, did you receive my message back? I think you are the first one to write on my wall.
I need to get the hang of this. Is my personal info hidden until one is accepted?
-
Good Evening!
I'm currently watching the season opener of "America's Next Top Model: Cycle 10".... It's sooooo stupid, silly and over the top - as usual... -Which is just what I needed after my busy, busy afternoon.
*And I actually know one of the hot messes competing this season. Well, I know her from auditions, and it's a little sad to see that her on-camera persona is the same as her in-audition-room persona. :-\
-
I think you are the first one to write on my wall.
Actually, DR td beat me to it. And no, I didn't see your response... :-\

G[a]linda, or Elphaba? ;)
-
I did hear from my parents today via two 10-second e-mails. Basically, my Mom said, "We're here," and "We're on our way back to Atlantic City." I would have met them after the show, but since I wasn't done until 6:45, well... -But at least I got overtime today! *And it looks like I may get another hour of overtime tomorrow due the scheduling.
-
Did I beat you eight to the bar?
Does that mean you're my Daddy? 8)
-
:-X
Whassa mattah, DR TCB? Cat got your tongue?

In other words, a perfectly typical visit to NYC from your parents. ::)
-
Whassa mattah, DR TCB? Cat got your tongue?
Better the cat than the horse.
-
As for today's auditions, well... I was reminded why it's usually better for me not to look at the person auditioning while they are singing. There was a lotta crazy goin' on today. -And a lot of stifled giggles and rolled eyes. ::)
-
You are too damn sweet to be Elphaba!
DR Singdaw is not GREEN enough to be Elphaba, he'd have to be a chicken for that to happen again.
-
Awwww, thanks DR TCB for defending my honor! Or something...
-
Does that mean you're my Daddy? 8)
Only in Philadelphia.
-
Awwww, thanks DR TCB for defending my honor! Or something...
It's always nice to have DR TCB in one's corner. ;)

A hotbox o' crazy?

And what he giveth, he also taketh away... :P

I agree. Our days of portraying Alan Strang are gone, baby, gone.

Only in Philadelphia.
And what happens in Philly STAYS in Philly. :)

Hey! that's how [title of show] describes Miss Betty Buckley ! ! !
You're so s-m-a-r-t!
-
In other words, a perfectly typical visit to NYC from your parents. ::)
Exactly!
*And I'm still wondering why it took me ten minutes to explain to my Mom how to get to the St. James Theatre from Port Authority...
"So... Just listen... Port Authority is at 42nd Street and Eighth Avenue. The St. James is at 44th and Eighth Avenue, so it's just two blocks away."
-So, which way down 42nd Street do we need to walk?
"No, you go two blocks north on Eighth Avenue. When you come out of the Port Authority, just walk towards the Chevy's, and the big CBS sign."
-So, if we're coming from the Burger King...
;)
-
Actually, DR td beat me to it. And no, I didn't see your response... :-\
Having no idea what the wall was ;D I responded. Then my response showed up as a public statement. I tried to cancel it & have no idea what I did.
I have so many friends in such a short amount of time. :)
-
And what he giveth, he also taketh away... :P
;D
The lord almighty sent you a CHICKEN? ? ?
(did you make soup)?

This is great fun, y'all, but I'm about to turn into a pumpkin...

If I recall correctly, Michael Lucas was my first Facebook friend.
-
DR Ginny-You are my first Facebook friend.
And I am your first Facebook fiend. :)
-
Michael Lucas
He's on Facebook?!?!?!?
-
Now I get it. Under my name is says "What are you doing?". I saw that after responding to Singdaw's invite & something where it said he wrote on my wall. Seems I put my response into a general mini-feed & I'm not permitted to remove it. I don't understand why not.
-
Just remember who's your daddy.
;D
-
I guess I don't understand Facebook
-
DR JoseSPiano - I knew that you knew about this documentary. I just meant that it would be more interesting to you than to most, since you actually worked with all of these people.
I'm just wondering why it's premiering in Toronto and not New York City - ??
*And I do wish the original HBO(?) mini-series/reality show plans had worked out. There was talk about a four to six hour program at one point and time.
-
;D TCB. I'm getting the hang of it.
Up to now I have basically looked at Craig's. I like to browse the names of his old Michigan friends that have contacted him. The funny thing is he doesn't know much about most of them, just that they asked to be his friend. ;D
Was I ever smart to use my personal email address for this. Every action sends me another email. Keith would be screaming by now ;D
-

DR Jane - If you have your profile privacy settings set to "Only My Friends", then your friends are your "Public". -You can also customize how much of your profile each of your Facebook Friends can see. I know some actors who have different setting for their real friends and their fans.

Re: Jose's comments about the other diners last night:
I knew about many of Jose's other gifts, but I didn't realize he possessed so much "radar." :)
And a finely tuned "radar" it is. Very finely tuned. ;)
-
You can also disable the e-mail notifications.
;D They are fun for now, later I might. Thanks for the tip.

Anyone have a recording of Kander and Ebb's song "Pain"?
I think I do. And, if not, I know who I can get one from. ;)
-
I guess I don't understand Facebook
I don't either. I'm just there. :)
-

Thanks for the info.
I went back & figured out "hide story" means delete & the oddly worded question was if I was sure I wanted to delete. Silly me.
It wasn't a big deal, except I didn't think my statement made much sense ;D
-
And speaking of recordings...
I know that a good number of DRs have special "collector's items" from the world of musical theatre, opera and concert work - a.k.a. bootlegs. Myself included. I'm not meaning to put a damper on anyone's "happiness", but I have to say that it makes me a little uncomfortable reading when someone posts that they are listening to or watching an otherwise not-meant-for-public sale/consumption recording - as if it's something that is publicly available.
*I also know that some other "eyes" happen to check into this site every now and then, and it makes them "uncomfortable" from time to time too.
-
-Just had to get off my chest and my conscience.
-
Last night, I (legally) downloaded "iTunes LIVE from SoHo: Spring Awakening," (appropriately, from iTunes) a six-track live recording with Duncan Sheik and members of the cast of the show and burned the songs onto a CD, to which I am now listening. I made a little booklet (in color), but I misspelled one of the song titles. :P I hate it when that happens. Now I MUST reprint it.
Just had to share. :)

Having no idea what the wall was ;D I responded. Then my response showed up as a public statement. I tried to cancel it & have no idea what I did.
I have so many friends in such a short amount of time. :)
I knew you'd be popular!
-
;D TCB. I'm getting the hang of it.
Up to now I have basically looked at Craig's. I like to browse the names of his old Michigan friends that have contacted him. The funny thing is he doesn't know much about most of them, just that they asked to be his friend. ;D
Was I ever smart to use my personal email address for this. Every action sends me another email. Keith would be screaming by now ;D
My son won't let me send him a friend request - "It's just too weird, Mom."
Jane, you can modify the settings to control some of that email. It's under "Settings" then "Notifications."

Point taken, dear sir.

You know, I did not understand a word of this!
Would it help if it had subtitles?
-
Every time DR JoseSPiano posts, I cannot help but feel he is eating ANOTHER ice cream!
Don't know WHY you have that impression. ;)

I told my son I would not send him a request, & did not want to attempt to read his comments. He said it didn't matter. I really want to know how his old friends from school are, which he couldn't say much. ;D Weird would be writing them & asking how they are, as tempting as that might be.
Thanks for the settings tip.

Hate to do this, but I cannot stay awake. I'm gonna crash.

Back from our brief work session - we changed the arrangement of the song and it's much better now in terms of what it will do for that spot in the show. Boswell is so fast and so good.

I'll go add Jane as a friend.
-
DR Jose, you put the same message on my wall twice. Am I the only one who can remove the duplicate message?

Ah, my computer hiccup'd. However, I just "fixed" it. I think. -Otherwise, you can edit your own Wall posts. When you move your cursor over the post, you should get an option box.

Umm... "Too cute"? More like almost sunburned and buzzed.

DR Jose. It worked. I was curious if one could delete another person's wall. I expect you can only delete what you put there. It is nice to know mistakes can be removed.

I thought I had made my profile private, guess not. I'll have to figure out how to change that. The other Jane out there is private, and blond. I hope if there are old friends out there looking for me they will know I'm the cute puppy & the guy in the other photo is not Keith. If they go for the blond they are in for a surprise.

Hi Sigerson, did you have a nice birthday?

Maybe you two Janes should be Facebook friends. That way, if someone is looking for one, they'll see the other there. :)

Today, I had pizza for lunch (I had a coupon!), so I'm going to have left-over pizza for dinner. It's quite tasty and heats up very nicely in my toaster oven. No microwave this time. :D
-
Well, it's time for me to leave...I've done my time. ;) Until later!

NetFlix sent us something to watch tonight. Time to open it & find out.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MATTH!!!
Do you remember the Birthday House TV show?
-
I tried to have the brief annoying telephonic call today. The person was out when I called, and I specifically told this person's receptionist to try me at home after two-thirty or on my cell. So, I don't hear anything at either number and I very nicely write an e-mail saying I'll call in the morning, and reiterating that I left a message. I then get a snippy reply saying this person had tried to call me right back on my cell and that there was no answer and that he hadn't received a return phone call. Unfortunately, I was in my car and I didn't even have the cell turned on. I did turn it on exactly when I said I would, at two-thirty. I had no message from this person at either number. I wrote him back and told him to stop the snippiness and that we'd speak in the morning. It WILL be brief.

Vixmom, your new avatar and your new you look great!!!
thanks to Jose!

More than too cute!

Well... I'm not the one who drives to you to the gym each morning. Thank Yourself!

I'm going to a birthday celebration this evening. A dear friend turns 80 today and he's having a celebration at his apartment. He lives in a very nice building full of famous people. He bought the place many years ago and couldn't begin to afford it now. It will be great fun, I'm sure. We (Anthony and me) made his presents since "what do you get for an 80 year old who has most everything". We made a CD of music from the year 1928 including large doses of music from musicals of that year. He was interviewed in the New York Times in 1989 (a short article) and I found it, copied to a Word document, jazzed it up with fonts and color and put it in a frame and Anthony made some of his signature candy bar wrappers. He buys a box of Hershey bars and makes up a person specific wrapper on the computer to wrap around the outside. It's the (in this case) Greg Bar. I don't have any examples to post here but if I find one at home I will post it later.
I'll also tell you about my trip later.
The office is a madhouse so I must get back to work!
I have made candy bar wrappers as well, I used to make them as part of goody bags to hand out at the end of the Vixter's bd parties when she was little
-
Exactly!
*And I'm still wondering why it took me ten minutes to explain to my Mom how to get to the St. James Theatre from Port Authority...
"So... Just listen... Port Authority is at 42nd Street and Eighth Avenue. The St. James is at 44th and Eighth Avenue, so it's just two blocks away."
-So, which way down 42nd Street do we need to walk?
"No, you go two blocks north on Eighth Avenue. When you come out of the Port Authority, just walk towards the Chevy's, and the big CBS sign."
-So, if we're coming from the Burger King...
;)
Do we have the same mother?
-
DR Jose always posts the cutest photos.
-
Well... I'm not the one who drives to you to the gym each morning. Thank Yourself!
I meant you took the photo and you fixed the avatar for me!
BTW what tiem willyou be picking me up for gym tomorrow?

So the Vixter LOVED her first day of 10th grade
-
She made teh cut and is on the girls Jr Varsity soccer team
2 of her best friends are in her homeroom and 1st period class (chorus)

She likes all her teachers
May the next 179 days go as smoothly!!
-
Do we have the same mother?
;D

Thank you for the birthday greetings, DR TCB.
-
Thnk you so much, DRs Cillaliz and Edi for the birthday wishes. I am most appreciative!
-
Well, I had a long day today, and I already know that tomorrow has the potential to be just as crazy... And tiring, so...
Goodnight.

DR MattH - What are your local weather people saying about this coming weekend in regards to Hurricane Hannah?
-
It's cooled off again! Hooray. It should be another wonderful night of sleep.

DR MattH - What are your local weather people saying about this coming weekend in regards to Hurricane Hannah?
They're saying now that it won't get to us until Saturday afternoon and will go to the east of Charlotte.
-
Thank you, DR Vixmom. No, I'm not at all familiar with that. Was that a national program or regional?
-
Well its beddybye time for me too....
Sleep well DR's and may the hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes , pestilence, famines, dsisease miss all of ye!
(and perhaps a few of you might get directly in the path of a winning Lottery ticket!!)
-
Thank you, DR Vixmom. No, I'm not at all familiar with that. Was that a national program or regional?
It may have been regional. I know it was filmed in New York... I was very excited when they said my name on my birthday... I was probably 6 or 7 at the time.....

Whew! So, I should at least be safe for my trip down on Friday morning.

I heard the next one is going into FLorida.

I only got three more MEDIUM episodes watched. That means I'll have six more to do tomorrow. But, with no BURN NOTICE tomorrow night, I should be able to get them finished.

I heard the next one is going into FLorida.
OK. :-\
I guess we all shall just wait and see.
Once again, thanks.

Urgent - Important for a dear dear relative of mine -
Does anyone have a written version of the instructions for doing the maneuver with the head and chins that minimizes the appearance of the double/triple/quadruple chin when being photographed?
Or can someone write it up in some way?
I tried to explain it and just could not do so effectively.
-
Included in those three was the sad two part episode concerning Anjelica Huston's missing daughter. I loved the episode with its surprises, but the ending seemed a cheat, an easy end to the story that didn't involve Allison or the others finding some way to trap that scheming girl.
-
I did skim through today's AS THE WORLD TURNS. Nothing, but the boys are on tomorrow's show.
-
Next I watched the season premiere of BONES. Enjoyable but a very scattered episode with several things I was irritated by.
The new assistant (Edison) who replaced Zack was also featured in last year's season finale where he claimed he was gay. In tonight's show, he was talking about the string of girls he was sleeping with. Don't these folks watch their own show? Well, a moot point since it appeared he quit at the end of the show.
I got very irritated with the whole subplot with Angela and Hodgins, especially the nonsensical ending breaking them up. Didn't follow the logic of the breakup AT ALL.
I'll be glad to have them back in America. I did like some of Booth's comic irritation at doing things differently in England, and I was sad to see a potential long distance boy friend for Tempi killed off. But the mysteries were OK.
-
PROJECT RUNWAY. No question that the person sent packing deserved to go. I was cheering when it was announced.
As for the winner, I think I liked the third place finisher the best (black and yellow), but I had no real problem with the winner who also had a lovely, chic gown.

The Chin Maneuvers - that's the title of my next novel. I had some snacks from Gelson's - fruit, rice cakes, and a tiny bit of crab salad from the salad bar - nothing terrible - the fruit (a nectarine and a peach) were very filling, though.
-
Jose - Based on this most recent exchange with your mom, it is becoming more and more clear that - at least in terms of sense of direction - I am channeling your mother. What your mom said sounded like exactly what i would have said in response to what you said (especially the Burger King part).

Going to write for just a little bit and then head on down to bed.
Good night!

Hmm...this looks like something similar, but not quite it.
HOW TO LOOK 10 LBS THINNER IN 5 MINUTES OR LESS
TIP #1 -- How To Eliminate A Double Chin
Eliminating double chins or excess skin under the chin is simple.
When you’re the photographer, all you have to do is raise the camera – get up higher so you see less of your subject’s neck.
When you’re the model, you have two options:
1) Tilt your chin upward and lean forward. This will stretch the skin under the chin.
2) Position yourself (or your model) with one shoulder away from the camera, while turning the head to look back at the camera. This will slim down body mass. It’ll also flex muscles in the neck, making it appear more slim and youthful.
