I don’t know how, but Keith still does that.  I cuddle with him on the floor or on the bed.  Speaking of cuddling, I need to bring him in from his deck, even though he hasn’t asked to come in, and cuddle with him.  He is out there watching for Keith to come home.  The deck is off the office so I can watch him easily.

And speaking of Armenian (by way of California)....here is a music video for one of Armenia's most handsome pop/folk singers....Gor Mkhitarian...sort of looks like George Clooney....give him a listen and a look and see what you think.

I have all of his albums! I just love his voice!

Well, fellow Dear Readers. I fear I have made a big mistake. I went to the arboretum's members only plant sale. Now I have to dig sixteen holes.

I'm sure they would love to. But for most of these things I will need a pick to dig a hole in the desert rock. But they are native plants, so they will do ok in 118F weather.

I would think that blake, chris s and chris richardson would be safe. And i also still think phil is popular. So if they keep sanjaya, that basically only leaves brandon to go.

His earliest eviction would suit me just fine. I can certainly understand why the women would generate more voting; they're so good that you want to see certain ones advance. With the men singers, for the first time EVER, I really don't care if they're all picked off one by one until only the women are left.

DR Jane,

I'm not really familiar with EUREKA. Is it on Sci-fi or Lifetime? I'll have to do a little research.

Thanks for the finger vibes...errr....

I really should go see if they have bandaids here!

Closer fans will be glad to know that Brenda still has that ugly long sweater that she's worn since the pilot and is still wearing in season 3. Another of the many things I love about this show!

I began my afternoon of viewing with MR. MOTO IN DANGER ISLAND. Pretty good mystery, and while I easily avoided the obvious red herring they kept throwing in our faces, I did not guess the identity of the murderer. I had it narrowed down to two, but I guessed incorrectly.

Then I watched the featurette on the MOTO DVD, this one of how MOTO came to Fox to be made into a movie series. Something I didn't know is that the first Moto novel wasn't filmed at all. The second and third novels were the first ones filmed.

BTW, the subway map wasn't made by my friend---she just happened to send it to me.

She did do artwork for the Atlas of Georgia, a very fine publication. It even has maps with locations of the greatest concentration of trailer parks, and towns with weird names, biblical names, etc.

Next, I watched LILLIAN RUSSELL, a very entertaining show biz biofilm with Alice Faye doing very well as the title character.

I had never seen this all the way through, so I was delighted seeing so many wonderful actors in character roles. They even managed to work in a Weber and Fields routine and Eddie Foy Jr. playing his father.

For much of the DVD, the transfer is stunning - very sharp with excellent contrast. However, about an hour and twenty minutes into it, a scratch over on the right side of the frame begins and runs for something like twenty minutes. What's terrible is that the scratch is deep enough to actually have little tears in the film and these small ragged openings run constantly during that 20 minutes, very distracting.

Fox puts a disclaimer at the top of the film about the presentation being the best possible with the materials at hand. What a shame to have it marred like this!

There's a featurette on the LILLIAN RUSSELL DVD on the real Lillian Russell which I started watching. It's very interesting getting the real story of her life which, of course, was considerably cleaned up for the screen.

So, tonight, I'll watch THE NAKED CITY from the Criterion Collection and then THE PRESTIGE on Blu-ray disc which I've read is a snimply stunning high def transfer. Can't wait to see for myself.

Lordy, he's making me sound like such a geek!

While der B is busy watching everything on broadcast television in the livingroom, I retreat to his room and catch up on DVDs.  It's that simple.  Lately, I've been going through the Good Eats DVDs, watching the eps in broadcast order, and it's fascinating how much of the recurring bits and regulars showed up in the very first season.  

His use of the phrase "Oh, bother" didn't start until the first ep of the second season, however.  (I've only just started re-watching season two.)

My re-watching the series will be a bit spotty in some places.  There's thirty-three eps that haven't yet made it to DVD (including DR Edisaurus's work on "Squid Pro Quo"), and twenty-seven eps that are on DVD that we don't have in our collection... yet.

As for "Lucky," he's a relatively new addition to the series.  I'm not exactly sure when he joined the crew.  I think he's a good addition to the action, however, cleverly warped.  And yes, Edi, you can tell him I said so!

A button expander for after a big meal?  Can you wear this where it can be seen, or must it be covered by a sweater or something?
