Well, you've read the notes, the notes gave you your fix, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're currently smoking some MOOrijuana cigarettes.

And the word of the day is: SCREED!

Morning all.
That is all.

Good morning, all! I have a part o my day at the McGlinnventory, hopefully the last time before this fershlugganah sale gets underway, and i am so hoping the sale sells a lot and clears out the space!
I had truly weird dreams last night, the last featuring DR Ginny, both of my brothers, and my dad. It was truly, truly a weird dream. All I remember is DR Ginny walking down Seventh Avenue (?) perhaps it was Central Avenue in Middletown, OH, and then driving me to the hospital and listening to the radio so loudly that I couldn't speak on the phone to 911.
The rest of my day is tied up with DEAREST ENEMY, a trip to Toyland, and fixes to the notes. And Zach's biography. That's enough.

Early birds!

Today is Thursday....which means a new episode of WIPEOUT tonight.

And the word of the day is: SCREED!

TOD:
THE RED BALLOON, which I don't watch any more because it makes me very sad.
:'(
Those of you who have read my memoir will understand why.
-
We watched THE HOUR last night.
That's the BBC series that was nominated for a Golden Globe.
Good show, but I really think they "stole" the three leading characters from BROADCAST NEWS.
-
Good morning to all
-
When I was a child CBS had a program Sunday afternoon that showed family orientated films from around the world. The two most memorable films were "The Red Ballon" and "Fatty and Skinny" (I think that was the name. It was from Japan.)
-
An interesting fact is that The Red Baloon won an Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay and the shortest film to do so. Also it was the first film (And I believe the only one so far) that did not have any kind of dialogue to win the award. That includes silent films that had intertitles
-
Thursday morning greetings! Another puttering day for me, but this one may actually include leaving the house...
-

Would that not be categorized as petty theft?

Congrats to MR BK on all the fixes.
Have fun today DR CILLA LIZ.....and travel and best wish vibes for the trip and the wedding.

BK is following in the comma-less footsteps of William Faulkner. ;)
-
We finished the "regular" episodes of DOWNTON ABBEY last night and moved on to the "Christmas Special," which is in effect the ninth episode of the second season, picking up from the end of the eighth. I correctly predicted several plot developments well before they happened, which is usually my sign that a series is becoming. . .predictable. ;)
-
JR, the internet e-quaintance I mentioned the other day, the one who's back in touch with me after years and years, now works at Notre Dame, so I told her now that she's a Hoosier she must, must, must read "Shedding Light on Shadowland." ;)
-
I'm assuming others here, being as clever as they are and all, have realized that DOWNTON ABBEY's Bates' dream of opening an inn means he was the first proprietor of The Bates Motel. :)

Indeed.

Or the Bates Dead & Breakfast.

I, on the other hand, am up. The East Coast singer called just before nine to run a couple of things by me.

From DR Jennifer:
DR Jane yes Katherine Heigl had brown curly unruly hair in the movie.
Thanks.

For those who have jumped the monkey and have finished watching the second season of "Downton Abbey" (on home video) while others are still watching on PBS, please be careful about comments...even non-specific ones...that put questions in our minds as to what you are "not saying" that might spoil our fun at seeing them with pre-anxieties about said comments.
-
DR Ron I'm surprised the DVD for the entire 2nd season is available when you are still watching it on PBS. NetFlix shows it as a very long wait so you might finish watching before we receive the DVD.
-
The only comment I made today came from the first season, for crying out loud.
-
I find this whole "spoiler" business (which now seems to be growing to "don't post NON-spoilers" ::) ) just silly. DOWNTON ABBEY was capitalized before any comment of any import was made. Skip the post for heaven's sake. I have stayed out of this spoiler fracas when it's erupted before but I just can't believe a joke (a joke!) that "spoils" NOTHING is considered objectionable. End of rant.
-

In that case I will go back & read it. ;)
Unfortunately I think I read a day or two ago I really wish I hadn't read.

My goodness! The "joke" post wasn't the reference to which I was alluding!
You mentioned seeing the "Christmas" episode which hasn't aired as you state it's the 9th episode of the 2nd Season. We've had 5 episodes aired, thus far, in Season 2. You then wrote: "I correctly predicted several plot developments well before they happened, which is usually my sign that a series is becoming. . .predictable." I haven't seen that episode, and your post makes it seem that the show's developing story arc hinges on what you saw in this episode.
"Downton Abbey" has yet to become predictable...for me. You may have been talking about Season One, but your comment came after mention of an episode (the ninth) from Season Two. I relish my Sunday evening visits with "Downton" and your comment seemed to be saying, "You're going to find it becoming tiresome." If that isn't a spoiler, it's a bummer. Do note that I said nothing about posting "Spoiler" on your post...only to take care with comments you make about things we, as a group, haven't likely yet seen. Naturally, we'd expect "Spoiler" atop any post you make that actually contains spoilers.
So who groks the sequences of your train of thought?
-
Without beating a dead horse, my comment to which you are responding was simply an opinion, it contained nothing spoiling of any sort and was simply a general comment that I (no one else, mind you, I) was able to predict several plot developments. Did I mention any of those developments? No. Following your train of logic, no one (say, like, BK and Druxy, who frequently disagree on the merits of certain projects) should ever post anything they think of a film/tv series lest it be thought of as a "bummer" for someone else.

Should I check out Downtown Abbey? Is it on Blu and Ray?
-
Should I check out Downtown Abbey? Is it on Blu and Ray?
Yes, both seasons. It's quite the rage.

JMK: Peace, bro.
I'll avoid your posts.

Downton Abbey Season 1

Be careful, I divulge all sorts of top secret information, like that I loved, loved, loved it. ;)

It's also filled to the brim with DNR, but I'm sure you knew that already.

Get in line. ;D

In other news, the second copy of ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN front I received has the same misauthoring I mentioned in my review, where there's nothing on the Chapters submenu other than the heading "Chapters."

Synchronicity Whilst Channel Surfing Department: I just stumbled across Edward Albert turning to Eileen Heckart in BUTTERFLIES ARE FREE and saying, "Well, you'd better start laughing at something or some people are going to think you're a lesbian."

And this year, "The Artist" is nominated for best original screenplay. I wonder how many other "silent" films over the years were at least nominated.

Topic of the Day:
The Mysterious Geographic Explorations of Jasper Morello (http://www.jaspermorello.com/gazette/). It's a steampunk silhouette animated adventure...and quite mysterious. :)

Back from a four-mile jog. Yikes. I shall now hopefully go get some packages. I erred about the important envelope - the earliest that will be here is tomorrow.
-
Should I check out Downtown Abbey?
Yes.
-
Anyone going to see this?

T.O.D.
Short films? I guess anything with Mickey Rooney.

It's snowing again.

Season 2 od DOWNTON ABBEY arrived tofay from Amazon.

That teacher in Los Angeles who was arrested on buse charges is being held on a $23 million bail. Why not just refuse bail. Good grief who would even have the 10% needed for a bail bondsman?
-
Which teacher are you referring to? How awful I even have to ask which one.

George was talking about seeing HAIR last night. I remember back in 1969, or 1970; Seattle had a company of HAIR. I don't mean a touring company, but an actual Seattle Equity company at the Moore Theater in downtown Seattle. I believe that is the only time we have ever had a national company of a musical.
-

Miramonte Elementary School where the two teachers were arrested and the entire staff was replaced.

And as I remember the nude scene at the end of Act One was was very subtle.

I almost said that I was surprised that a community theater would include a nude scene; but I forgot that several theaters have done THE FULL MONTY and kept the totally nude scene at the end of the show.

Has anyone here seen THE WOMAN IN BLACK?

I had a very positive phone conversation today with a gentleman from Social Security.

The second week of May the Bernese Mountain Dog Club of America is having their yearly international gathering in Gettysburg. I want very much to go but it might not work out. I plan to go to Bryan's graduation on June 1st. The dates aren't close enough together for me to stay on the east coast in-between the events.
Keith's aunt & cousin will be in NY at the end of May & asked me to join them. I could go to Philly, NY & then Chicago.

Sooooooo,
I was in a motel last night. Said motel had a television with some basic cable. I kept flipping through the channels. I was sure that if I just kept flipping that I would find something worth watching.
We decided that we are very glad that we did not spend any money purchasing a television machine.
-
I just read online that Broadway actor Chip Zien was the voice of Howard The Duck in the film of the same name. I never knew that. Of course, I never saw the film.

Nothing to watch at all?
-
Well, one of the things we watched and turned off was about a girl named Chelsea, who went deep sea fishing with a slutty girl, a dumb girl, and two gay doctors.
-
Then we watched Neil Patrick Harris steal girlfriends from his buddy.
-
We turned off a woman telling about her affair with JFK.
-
We turned off Wayne and Garth.
-
I am wondering why this new book by the woman who claims to have had an affair with JFK is considered such a "big bombshell." I would think that finding a woman who hadn't an affair with JFK would be more newsworthy.

I have started watching one show on Wednesday night that I am finding that I really like. It is called HAPPY ENDINGS. I actually laughed out loud a couple of times.

We were living there at the time and my eldest sister went to see this! My parents wouldn't let me go. ;)
-
Today it was announced that the Rev. Phelps and his followers will be picketing outside the funeral service for the two little boys that were blown up by their father. Apparently God killed the two boys because Washington had passed the Same-sex Marriage Act.

I feel bad for the innocent staff & teachers who have been replaced.

Sigh, likely. Flights out of Medford are not direct & they are pricey. To pass up seeing hundreds of beautiful dogs, many whom I know from facebook, isn't easy to do. I have my hotel reservation but nothing else.
-

Because she was only 17 at the time.

I am sure that the statute of limitations has expired for that crime. Not to mention the fact that he is dead.

Hmmm, maybe we should watch it for more than a few minutes.

I swear that Dr. Oz is a whackjob. Today he was showing his viewers that they should rub raw garlic on the bottom of thier feet before they go to bed. I think the divorce rate would double.

Well, if anyone wants to catch up on the Susan Powell disappearance / Josh Powell double murder suicide; 20/20 tomorrow night will be doing the story, including an interview with the social worker.
-
This was the last night on the ship.
Did you bring back any leis with you?
-
I have finished everything for the Monday deadline!
All that means is, I'm back to wrk on ROBERTA, DEAREST ENEMY and my taxes.
-
This was the last night on the ship.
Did you bring back any leis with you?
You could use a good lei!
-
This was the last night on the ship.
Did you bring back any leis with you?
No. The heat got to them very quickly even when I kept it in the frig overnight. I wore the lei & hei (crown) for awhile the next day but Keith said they looked pathetic. You should have seen his expression when I first appeared (after only having been gone for 5 minutes) wearing all those flowers.
-
DR Jane - I love the flowers in/on your hair!
For what it's worth, our guest room should be open in May and we're between Gettysburg and Chicago...
-
Later I returned with my camera to photograph the lei & hei makers. People kept getting in my way. You can see not everyone was as lucky as I was and had to work to get their leis & heis.
-
DR Jane - I love the flowers in/on your hair!
For what it's worth, our guest room should be open in May and we're between Gettysburg and Chicago...
Thank you.
And thanks Ginny that would be very nice. If only the timing were better. I don't want to be away from Keith for over 3 weeks. I had enough of that when he worked.

RE: the spoiler discussion from earlier.
I personally don't like spoilers. Although I am normally quite good with just the title of the show being listed.
In this case i don't think what DR JMK wrote was necessarily spoilerish. However since the series has not finished airing on tv yet I think the case is a bit different than if that comment had been made after a Sunday episode.
It's hard because it's fun to discuss shows. And discussing a show in depth requires spoilers. :(
-
Last one of the day.
More of the beautiful island flowers. I'm surprised we don't have a photo of white flowers similar to these. Everywhere we went we were greeted with a little white flower.

Darn, it looks a bit dark.

EXCLUSIVE: DreamWorks and Working Title Films are embarking on a feature remake of Alfred Hitchcock's classic mystery "Rebecca," that will be written by "Eastern Promises" scribe Steven Knight, who will go back to the original book by Daphne DuMaurier.
Story follows a naive young woman who marries a rich widower and settles in his gigantic mansion, only to find that the memory of the first wife maintains a grip on her husband and the servants. Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner will produce for Working Title.
Knight earned acclaim early in his career for writing Stephen Frears' "Dirty Pretty Things" and he recently adapted Dan Brown's bestselling novel "The Lost Symbol" for Sony. Knight is currently prepping his directorial debut "Hummingbird," which will star Jason Statham.
Knight is repped by CAA.

Story follows a naive young woman who marries a rich widower and settles in his gigantic mansion, only to find that the memory of the first wife maintains a grip on her husband and the servants. Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner will produce for Working Title.
Knight earned acclaim early in his career for writing Stephen Frears' "Dirty Pretty Things" and he recently adapted Dan Brown's bestselling novel "The Lost Symbol" for Sony. Knight is currently prepping his directorial debut "Hummingbird," which will star Jason Statham.
Knight is repped by CAA.
If memory serves me correctly the movie was fairly close to the book.

Jane have you sailed on Celebrity?
No. Why do you ask?
Just curious. They send me a lot of stuff.
I can't remember, how do you rate Celebrity?

I really want to go to Gettysburg.

Not really. ;D The Production Code wouldn't allow Maxim to be an outright murderer, plus the whole affair/illegitimate baby subplot was glossed over.

No, I have never traveled on Celebrity, but a lot of friends swear by them.

I would say they are a step up from Princess, but a big step below Oceania.

I'll have to read the book again. It seemed about the same to me.

If I can't do Oceania next time maybe I can make it Celebrity.

TCB, I may have missed it, but did you know the social worker in that horrible local case?

Be sure you compare what you are getting for your money, before you decide which one to take. One of the biggest considerations is that Oceania's prices include round trip airfare.

A lot of my friends know her and have worked with her, but she was actually employed by a private agency that was contracted by the state to handle visits.

Absolutely, though things might change by the time I go on a cruise again.

I just channel surfed and was slightly amazed to see SMASH on six (count 'em, six) different cable channels tonight. NBC is getting their money's worth out of this show.
