Why do people on facebook who you don't know send friend requests without a note saying who they are or why they are contacting you??

Could be spam or "friend collectors".

I clicked on the person. it is a real person. But i have no idea who it is and do not know them. And the man is over 60 so i know it's not someone i went to school with or anything like that.

I'm curious if there are any new tv shows that people here will be watching.

I don't know for myself yet (since i like to read about the shows first).

I do know that I will be watching GLEE.

And I've seen like 1000 promos for THE VAMPIRE DIARIES and will try that (i've read the books).

We used to get TV Guide here that had really good descriptions of all the new shows. I think EW might still do that. And i guess my local TV TIMES will do something maybe next saturday. I thought for sure there would be stuff on tvguide online. Maybe i checked too early. :(

Hello, all! I am at Toyland. I had lots of packages to pick up at the Post Office and - nice surprise! - a nice check for one of my jobs last month.

I've been thinking about yesterday's orchestra sessions: the conductor beat tine to the music as though he were beating his way through the jungle bush with a machete. What do you do when someone you are quite fond of isn't good enough for the position he wants? How do you gracefully remove himn? Howe do you suggest other job positions he might be better qualified for? How do you fire someone you like and wish well?

Perhaps the fact you posted your opinion on a public blog, the news will make its way to him.

Probably all of those times you swiped that yellow bracelet at the bar.

Most likely when the kids swiped the bracelet.

You probably have the same name as one of his friends, Jennifer. I was friended by someone who was looking for another person with my name.

The kids' bracelets aren't "swipable," thank heaven.  ;)  The food here is unbelievably expensive (and pretty bad, to boot).  I will say as wonderful as the waterpark and some amenities are, these are without a doubt the worst beds we've ever experienced in a hotel.  Our guess is kids have repeatedly jumped on them, breaking the box springs, so that both beds are completely concave.  My back is sore.

DR Elmore - in his heart of hearts, the conductor probably already knows he's in over his head.

I had a woman "friend" me on Facebook and I had no clew who(m) she was.  Born in 1933, didn't recognize her name.  Sent her a PM, which she never responded to.  Realized later she was one of my new members in my big community choir.  Oops--bet she won't be back this fall, LOL.

It is my experience as both a player and conductor that conductors resolutely refuse to admit they're in over their heads.   ;D

I emailed DAW a week or two ago after he posted to CASTRECL about Marin Alsop's new recording of MASS.  I played under Ms. Alsop years ago (very early in her career, but still post-Bernstein, which you'd think would have counted for something), and I was just lost most of the time.  Her conducting style at that time was something akin to stabbing at imaginary butterflies.  I had absolutely no clew what she was doing, and my sense from the other orchestra members was I was not alone in that regard.  :)

My Ask BK question:  with what seems like the impending release of XXX XXX XX XXX, what was the ownership chain of Phase4?  There are some wonderful Enoch Light recordings on that label (and maybe Edmundo Ros, too, now that I think of it), that I'd love to see released.

Is his name Bill Six, or something like that? He tried to friend me, but I haven't a clue who it is.

I think that Six guy friended a lot of us.  He should be up to at least Eleven by now.

Elmore, I mentioned this a couple of days ago--don't you have a very funny story about mishaps at some theater party attendance of XXX XXX XX XXX?  I can't remember the details, but I seem to recall someone gave the show a wonderful "new" title, a la CLOSE A LITTLE FASTER.  :)

Ask BK:  Bruce, in the episodes of "Adam 12" that you've watched, was one of those episodes titled "Elegy for a Pig"?  I have strong memories of this episode from the early 1970s (71 or 72, I think).  It was about the death of a police officer.  My strongest memory is of his wife slowly walking up some stairs after being notified of her husband's death.  It broke my heart.

No, DR Ginny; he's crashed and burned several times before this; he is completely clueless.

When you asked the question several days ago, I responded with a sort of "what are you talking about" inquiry. I still have no idea!
