Man, I'm trying to wean myself off snacking and cut back my caloric intake. I'd forgotten how hard the first couple days are.

I want a Pop-Tart in the worst way. I don't even LIKE Pop-Tarts.

I tried to watch the Tony's but they kept having musical numbers and I kept having to change the channel.

Next to Normal is a musical about, I shit you not, bi-polar disorder, electric shock therapy, and the death of a child.

Take your meds before you go.

I just watched the opening number from the Tonys.

I'm not nuts about the Spanish in West Side Story but they've done a pretty decent job integrating it-- I loved the mash-up with Guys and Dolls-- worked surprisingly well.

And I always have loved Hair. That and West Side Story were the first musicals I had records of. Oh, and Man of La Mancha.

Treat Williams in the film version of Hair is wonderful! And I'm not bothered by the hippie antics-- it's all contextual.

Oh, and Liza may be an icon, but she's an icon whose voice has gone so far south. I just wish she would stand up there and accept her dues without actually opening her mouth to sing any more.

I looked at the CNN website this morning and I'm wonder how they got a picture of my dog.

I don't know what the article is about, but that picture looks EXACTLY like my dog.

Perhaps your dog is a Cylon?

He doesn't seem to have a plan.

Good. Then it's working.

Though now that I think about it, I can't figure out what the hell the Cylon's plan was anyhow.

He doesn't seem to have a plan.

Maybe he's a sleeper agent, so you won't notice anything until he's activated.

Just to be safe, you'd better keep him away from Edward Olmos.
