Subject: Any Qz about Q? Ask away!

Written By: snozberries on 12/07/07 at 11:56 pm


Hey all...

I signed up in 05 but didn't become active until recently. I was hiding in the arcade trying to steal Jason's high scores.
I live in Santa Barbara and as you can tell by my 911 thread I work as a police dispatch.
I just turned 40.
Watch way too much TV
Drink way too much Mountain Dew.
Love my dog even tho her pic is no longer my avatar.
And sometimes I am way too wordy... but that's cuz I have no one else to talk to.
Ah well ask away!

my friends took me out to lunch Sushi, I wrote my christmas cards, and then I put up my TV. I logged on while waiting for my dinner to cook but that was done 20 minutes ago and I'm still on line!

Sounds great! Now I'm back online for the moment, checking my PM's and writing down addresses so I can mail out my Christmas cards this weekend! 8)

There are four...

Whoopi Goldberg but I would be totally intimidated by her
Oprah...cuz I want her to go Hi I'm Oprah, nice to meet you (I love how she introduces herself -as if people don't know her!)
Ellen cuz I want to dance with her
Rosie O'Donnell because say what you will about Rosie but I find her extremely entertaining. She embraces pop culture like I do so we could stay away from the politics and just talk about TV shows!

No I am an only child... my father is an only child... my mother has 5 sisters.  The sisters were in two groups... the first three each had 6 kids... of the last three one is gay, my mom had me, and the youngest only had one also.  Weird huh.


I have lived in California longer than I have lived anywhere else but I was born in Holland.
We moved to Maryland when I was 2 or 3 actually, my father was in the air force so he took us home for a couple months while he awaited his next orders.
My mom and lived in Riverside while my dad was in Viet Nam
When he returned we moved to Las Vegas, then Panama, Washington DC, back to Vegas, Salinas Ca, Stockton CA until I moved to Santa Barbara in 1996.

I am not very crafty but appreciate people who have this talent.  At one point the University (UCSB) had a picasso exhibit at their museum.  There was a pic. of one of the paintings on the web site. I was pretty bored working the graveyard shift so I recreated the image using markers, pens and whiteout... I was pretty proud of it but how sad is it that someone with absolutely no artistic talent can copy a Picasso and get it almost perfect?  ;D

I collect everything!  I have always been kind of a snob slob. When we lived in Panama my mom threatened to throw out my toys if I didn't clean up my room. I didn't so she threw away everything. As a result I have tried to get back everything I ever owned. I am a bit of a packrat.  Some of that is due to the trauma of losing my stuff as a kid but a lot of it is about the moving around so much. I never had a home so my stuff was my home. It's still that way.

I collect Action figures.. I love super heroes! Especially superman!
Barbies.
Any TV show memorabilia like dolls for TV shows, I have all the Charlie's Angels dolls but haven't picked up the van yet
Jem Dolls
Movie Posters
and my all time favorite thing to collect are 8x10s from my favorite shows/stars.  I have a Buffy the Vampire Layer Slayer wall, a Cagney & Lacey wall, photos from 3rd Watch, Any Day Now... I have a drawer full of photos I don't have room to display... that's why I want a big house... just so I can display my crap.

I love 80s music, Motown & Rap.  but I spend so much time watching TV I don't listen to music as much as I would like.... I love Janet Jackson, TLC and Eminem.  I wish I could have seen TLC in concert before Left Eye died.

Santa Barbara seems like such a beautiful place (from the pictures I've seen - I've never been West of Indiana.) although I understand it is a celebrity hang-out or at least very expensive/upscale.  I think that is where J-Lo was supposed to marry Ben Affleck when that all was happening, I imagine the town was pretty crazy then.

What is your favorite food?
Do you like wine?
Is Carly your only pet?

when I was twelve I went to lake havasu...I remember being amazed that the london bridge was there!

I remember my first trip to LA too... it was the first time I ever felt "home" in  city. I still get that feeling whenever I go there I feel like I should just pack up and move!

There are a lot of Celebs here....Oprah has a house here, Dennis Franz, Cheryl Ladd....so many people. Kelly LeBrock and Noah Wylie live in Santa Ynez about 3o minutes north) That's also where the Neverland Ranch (Michael Jackson's playground) is located. Sadly I never run into Celebs here....Director Taylor Hackford & his wife Helen Mirren also live in SB but of course I didn't meet them here I met them in LA!


I like to eat so I have few favorite foods. I love spaghetti, Red Lobster Fried Shrimp & lobster, chilli, the beans and rice my mother makes, steak.....mmmm I love steak cuz I'm a carnewhore!  ;D Yeah I said it!  About the only thing I don't eat is cheese, mushrooms and Avacadoes...

I don't drink.... I used to but I learned I had problem... it wasn't that I had a problem drinking... my problem was that I couldn't stop drinking  ;).  I joke about it but it has been hard.  Next week will be 11 years for me...but to answer your question I didn't really like wine. If I had to drink wine I'd do the pink stuff or the coolers.  and never EVER Beer!

Excuse me... Carly is my daughter  ;D.  Yeah I adopted her when she was one. She had a hard life before coming to live with me. She lived with a transient who was very mean to her but she is soooo sweet you'd never know it.  She lived with a friend of mine but kept running away. She suffers from separation anxiety and would go looking for people to be with. I had a pretty bad back injury in 1991 and was home for 5 months. About a month into it my friend had to get rid of Carly and they gave her to me because I was home 24/7.  We have been nearly inseparable since. I take everywhere I can. Whenever I go visit my parents in AZ Carly is in the backseat.  She hates it when I go to work or to LA but she knows I will always come back so she doesn't run away anymore. 

My parents each have a dog I posted pics of them on the pet photos thread.  I think of them as family too but they are not mine.

I have been on a boat a few times I don't get sea sick but I don't like being confined I like to know I move and get out and go places if I need to... probably comes from being cooped up in a dispatch center 10 hours a day with no break....tho at time I was on a boat I hadn't become a dispatcher yet  :-\\ hmmm.... why did I become a dispatcher? 

you want the short answer or the long one???

Growing up I watched a lot of tv.
I always gravitated to cop shows.
I spent my childhood thinking I wanted to be a cop when I grew up.
After high school I had pretty bad grades so I didn't go to college. I worked at Toys R Us
When I moved to Stockton I thought I would look into this law enforcement thing. I took class at Delta College and got my AA in Criminal Justice but realized that even though I was good at it I didn't want to be a cop.

Then one day I was watching GH.  It was like one of those AHA moments Oprah always talks about.
There was a camera man for the show who caught his reflection in some glass during a shot
It was like a lightbulb went on... I don't like cops I like cop shows... I don't wanna be a cop I wanna work in TV.

Fortunately my 1.8 GPA from high school didn't matter cuz I had a 3.9 in JR college so I got into UCSB.

I was much older than the students here though and putting myself through school. I had to find a job that was flexible with my school schedule. I thought why not put my AA to use.  So I got a job with a department and worked my way up to dispatching.

I like it even though its hard, frustrating and stressful but its not what I want to do forever.
I graduated in 2000- and thought I would work for a year or so to save money and move to LA to pursue my dream. 
Unfortunately in 2001 I was injured  at work and was out of work for 5 months.  I started getting caught up on my bills and stuff in 02.
Then in 03 my landlord sold my apt. and I had to move again. All the money I saved went to the move and I thought well I can start saving again but my new apt was 400 more a month.  70% of my paycheck was going to rent and car payments... I still had to pay everything else. Needless to say, I still haven't saved any money although i finally got a raise this year. I hope to get some money together soon so I can move on.

For the obvious question- the back injury was permanent enough so that I can't do camera work or dress sets...both very physical stuff that I really wanted to pursue.  I could write but  I feel like (although my scripts have been well received) I don't have enough ideas to sustain me in the industry.

I want a nice simple job on the set like Script girl or continuity. But those jobs will not pay me enough to live on my own in LA.  I refuse to share a place with anyone.

I tried to transfer to Beverly Hills PD cuz they pay a lot but failed out of the interview process by 2 lousy points. SUX...I think I was too honest in telling them I was hoping to work in the industry on my days off or maybe they didn't believe me when I said I have wanted to make LA home since I was 10 years old... Los Angelinos are so cynical they don't believe anyone but actors and directors would live there by choice.

TMI?

Honestly it was the one about the dog crap on the bike path.... there's something about the way she said "...and a child could come along and eat it!" She really believed that a kid would be dumb enough to see shhh sitting on a sidewalk and mistake it for chocolate or something....it was utterly ridiculous.

The other one was the one about the lady who wanted someone to come give oxygen to her dead cat. It wasn't like she came out and found the cat dead....the cat got caught between the bed frame and floor... It was squashed and stiff ( I guess they had been on vacation or something) anyway...the cat was beyond dead but the woman thought oxygen would help.

...yeah and the burger one...."Ma'am we're not gonna come out and enforce a cheeseburger!"

1. keep walking... I've lost 3 whole pounds since thanksgiving... not a lot but since I haven't changed my eating habits yet I feel good about.

2. eventually alter my eating habits but I'm not that committed to it cuz I love food....if I make small changes that will be a success for me

3. work less but save more.  I work a lot of OT because we were understaffed in 07. We will be fully staffed in 08 so I don't have to work any more 14 hour shifts. but I will also shop less so I can actually save money. I got very nice raise in may but saved nothing!

I'm actually surprised- its the first question people ask me....

I was born Tamarra Quintana ________ and went by my first name (Tamarra) through high school. I have always hated my name- and even more I hated that jokes people made about my name.  I'd hear the Annie song Tomorrow everyday or the Mr Rogers song "Tomorrow, tomorrow we'll start the day tomorrow with a song or two"  Only once did a  person make a joke that actually made me laugh

by the time I was in high school I got pretty defensive about it. I would actually hang up on customers if they made a joke or laughed at my name. I talked with my mom and she said why don't you go by your initials then... it made sense cuz I always wrote Tamarra Q. ___________ on everything... I liked having a Q in my name

I started going by TQ then decided at some point when someone said you have to use your name not initials so I started using Tq...and convinced them it was my actual name... I had a friend who refused to call me Tq- he knew I liked the Q so he just called me Q

I sign all my emails Q so any friends who were paying attention just started calling me Q too.

I understand the thing with names and jokes.
I go by my middle name, because if you look at my whole name together, it sounds like a Southern assassin, or something.
I only go by my first name in medical and legal affairs.

Well, when it comes to the famous Assassins in American history, they all seem to be called by their full names.
Examples include:

OK, so here I am, Q.  I just explored the "Ask Me" board/forum for the first time today.  (Does that answer your question?!?)  ;)

So, what to ask...

Why on earth do you actually want to move to L.A.?  You like big city life that much?

So, what to ask...

Why on earth do you actually want to move to L.A.?  You like big city life that much?



Two reasons...

1. We moved around a lot when I was a kid so I never really got a sense of home.  The first time I was in LA i was 10-12  I felt whatever it is that people feel when they talk about home. I finally got it. I don't know if its because so many shows I watched were set there so it felt familiar to me but I don't think so cuz it was a strong deep connection I can't really explain. I feel it every time I go there now. I know that is where I have always been meant to live.

2.  Let's face it where is a tv addict the happiest? In the land where television is made. Its the only city in the world... except new york but not to the same extent, that I can go out almost everyday and get my TV fix without staying home and watching tv.  I can go to show tapings, take studio tours, visit the Museum of TV & Radio, go to the Margaret Herrick Library, Universal Studios/City Walk, tour beverly hills, hollywood, walk the Hollywood Walk of Fame, go to the wax museum... there is just so much to do that fascinates me.  Plus I have friends there and no friends left here so I'd actually interact with people (in the real world) again. 

Whew....

^^ Ah, so there is  a logical reason why people like to live in a bustling metropolis!  (Two reasons, in your case.  ;) )

I'm the type that would rather commune with timber wolves, mountain lions, ponderosa pines, and snow-graced mountains.  Too many people and chaotic human energies unsettle me.

I hope you move soon, following your heart's desire.  :)

I really do want to start writing again.  I have a couple of scripts floating round my head but everytime I sit down at the computer I end up here!  ::)

I also plan on working less... I work a lot of OT because someone has to work and everyone else in dispatch knows that if they say no I will work it whether I want to or not because someone has to... we are finally fully staffed so I can let the newbies take all the OT.

Other than that. . .  I really have no goals. I just want a washer and dryer of my own so If I have to go outside and build the shed myself (my landlord has been "working" on it for 3 years) I am going to get one this year!!!

Do you smoke?


Howard's first it's easier.... I don't smoke.  I used to have a cigarette now and then when I was drinking but only because I thought it was cool.... one fateful night in San Diego I had WAY too much alcohol and one cigarette... I was sitting in the back of pick up throwing up all the way home  *sitting in the bed of a pick up is illegal and I don't do that anymore  ;) *  anyway... just the thought of a cigarette makes me ill.

I was always pretty much anti-smoking anyway because I didn't like breathing in second hand smoke. My mother is a smoker and it annoys me. She seems to think that cracking a window makes the smoke go out but really smoke wafts in all directions.

Hmmm....

:-[ in high school I watched alot of those films like Animal House, Revenge of the Nerds & Heaven Help Us... so I became kind of a wise ass. I also went to Catholic school... in English class Sister Carol was talking about a book and said something like... "They all sang out"  I opened my mouth and spread my arms and let out a resounding "AAAAAHHHHHH" I thought people would join me but they just looked at me like I was nuts...

:-[ I got drunk at party sophomore year of high school and met this guy who, in my inebriated state looked (to me) like Michael Jackson...this was 84 so you know, Thriller was a big deal.  I was too drunk to remember my name and number so my friend gave it to him. He called me on Sunday night and even though the only thing I could remember about him was that he had a Jeri Curl and those aviator glasses MJ wore I told him all about me including where I went to school.  He showed up at my school on Monday- it was an all girls school so getting a visit from a guy was a big deal- everyone heard (my friends have big mouths) that some guy I met at a party was here to see me... When I saw him I realized that they are called beer goggles for a reason... not that I am gorgeous but this guy was the UGLIEST MO' FO on the planet... I mean that was embarassing... they wouldn't let me live it down.

:-[ My friend had a party and I was drinking... how many of my embarrassing moments start off with I was drunk  :-\\ - anyway it was Cinco De Mayo and my friend's birthday so her familia had a huge party to honor both events.  At some point I went to the restroom and returned to the dance floor dancing fool that I am.... I was jumping around, spinning, doing the robot, popping/locking the whole shabang.... anyway I was out there dancing up a storm for about 20 minutes and everyone was watching me... I thought 'Yeah! They like it...." finally my friend's aunt came up and pulled me off the dance floor. She told me to look behind me... yeah when I came out of the bathroom I brought the toilet seat cover I used out with me... it stuck to my ass and was just hanging out of my pants and it twirled everytime I did... all those people watching me were just standing there laughing at me....  :-\\

The secret is to not use your phone a friend and 50/50 until the end....  by 500K if you have both left and don't know the answer use 50/50 then phone a friend... it seems the friend always gives you the wrong answer so just select the answer he doesn't give.... by the way the friend gives the right answer in the early rounds but screws with you in the later ones....

by the way.. that took many hours - days in fact.  But I committed every answer I got wrong to memory so by the time I hit a million I had seen a lot of those questions before.

Plus I know a lot of useless trivia...

I guess it depends on what you mean by retro... I am definately nostalgic so I guess I am into retro. I never really thought about it tho...

I always thought if I won the Lottery I wouldn't build a dream house. I would buy a roller skating rink and renovate it.  The cafeteria would be the dining area and I would convert it to a diner from the 50s complete with juke box. 

But the arcade area would have all my favorite games from the 80s to today...including elevator action, paper boy, crazy taxi and a ton of shooting games... my pinball machines would be the ones they made for all my favorite tv shows.  The DJ booth would hold my cd collection plus my dvd collection because I would have a flat screen on the far wall.. . In addition to being able to skate in the rink I would also put up a basketball hoop so I could shoot hoops too.  The area where people put on skates would be my living room and the office would be the bedroom

not that I spend much time thinking about it...  ;D

since I am trying to recapture the best part of my youth does that make me retro?

Has your boyfriend/husband ever cheated on you?



that's funny Howard...  I never really mentioned it before but I haven't been on a date in over 10 years. 

I never really saw the point.  I knew very early on that I didn't ever want to get married... partially because I am super selfish and I just like to be alone that way everything goes the way I want it and I don't ever have to compromise.  ::)

The other thing is I am soooo independent. I watch Wife Swap and I am appalled to learn that in 2008 there are still woman who wait on their husbands hand and foot....omg I would kill the guy by the end of the first week.

having said that the longest relationship I have ever been in was when I was in high school... it lasted two years.  I was in a junior and he was in the Army.  We saw each other once a week and I was happy because there was no pressure I could care less what he was doing the other 6 days because  was not sleeping with him I just wanted someone to make out with and watch movies with... he was good for that...plus I could say my boyfriend and I did this... my BF said that.... so it was the prestige of having one but none of the pressure....

I used to joke that if I ever got married I would want to live in different locations...two houses close by or two apartments on different floors or in different buildings.

But really I just don't want to be married. I have no need for another person in my life.



Also when I was dating I was attracting some really weird and scary guys so deciding not to date was a good decision.

but that's another story for another time.

Well black is beautiful  ;D but um...lets see

Clothing: I wear a lot of greys - like sports grey I also like burgundy



A favorite food? 


Home- My mom's spaghetti.

Restaurant- Red lobster Fried shrimp


A favorite scent?
 

I always say money when I get this on those surveys.
The truth is that I really like those clean scent odor stuff...it smells like clean laundry.


A favorite comfort item (a special blanket or cherished teddy bear or whatever?) 

When I was about 7 we lived in Panama. I was really sick for about a week. No one knew what was wrong with me. All of my toys were thrown out because they were afraid they were contaminated. After I got better the first stuffed animal I got was a stuffed rabbit. I have a pic I'll pull out later. Anyway I still have it. I love it.


Do you want to get another pet someday?
 

I go back and forth on this. I caught myself glaring at a couple in Costco Friday because they were buying two dog beds. I was so jealous but the truth is I don't want another dog...I want Carly back so I don't think I'm ready yet. I found some video footage of her on my computer yesterday  :\'( 


Do you have a favorite song or a favorite type of music? 

I love 80s music but not the heavy metal hair band stuff. I would love to get Guitar Hero but fear I will hate most of the songs. I need to rent the game so I can see what they exactly offer.

oops... I went off on a tangent.

My favorite artists are TLC  :\'( , Janet Jackson and Eminem.



If you were independently wealthy and did not have to work, where would you live, where would you travel? 


My favorite question of the lot! I have a plan for winning the lotto. Big money $200+ million!  ;D

I would buy myself 2 houses. One in Santa Barbara because its beautiful and I want to continue living here and one in LA. Because I do a lot of LA stuff....plus if I had the money I would do even more LA stuff and it would be nice to have a place to flop rather than driving the 3 hours round trip on top of 5 or more hours in line and 2 hours at an event. 

Secondly, I would buy my parents a house because AZ is too far away. I don't want them living with me tho  ;) so I would put them in Camarillo which is inbetween LA and SB I think they would love it there tho.

Third - Bills, My bills, my parents bills and bills of my friends who are really in need. (though I wouldn't divulge how much I actually won because I wouldn't want them begging at my door.  ::) )

Fourth - I'm not a big traveler. You know me and TV... I don't want to go anywhere because I might miss something although I could hook up two TiVos to every tv in every room and maybe get all my shows recorded while I'm gone  ;)

we moved a lot when I was a kid and lived in different countries so I don't need to see other places. People would always visit us and we'd do the whole sightseeing thing so I have grownup hating sight seeing. I want to see Movie Sets and Sound Stages. I would totally go to Orlando because I want to do the whole Theme Park Tour there. I would stay for a couple of weeks and do a different theme park every other day- a day in between for rest and not go on the weekends. 

I would go to Vegas because "It's Vegas baby" and even though I've lived there twice I think it'd be nice to go when you can afford to gamble.  (If you hear me planning an W00T get together in Vegas then you know I'm loaded. If I advocate one that someone else is planning I'm just excited to see ya'll. )


Oh and FINALLY!!!

I would start a production company. I already have the logo picked out.

http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa235/snozberries44/qslogo.jpg

The funny thing is- I would hire my friend to be a figure head but we would make decisions together...with me getting final approval on projects and stuff but I would "hire" myself as a production assistant so that no one would know I was in charge...  ;D .  There's too much kiss ass going on in Hollywood. I could sort out the kiss asses and get rid of (through my proxy) the people not getting the job done and once I assembled what I thought was a loyal crew I would come clean.





Do you like video games?  If so want kind?


Love Video games! I wish the day was 48 hours long just so I can play more.

This is totally wrong but I love those first person shooter games. Especially Grand Theft Auto. When I have a bad day at work... the kind where the cops just get on my nerves I play GTA and go on a cop killing rampage!  ;D  The next day all my frustrations are gone and I am happy go lucky at work again!





I think that oughta keep ya busy for awhile.  ;D

hmmm that killed about 30 minutes!

When I was kid we lived in Washington DC there was a seafood rest. somewhere called Cheasapeke House. They had the best fried shrimo. To me Red Lobsters taste just like that. It brings back a lot of memories for me I haven't found any other fried shrimp that comes close.


Lets see fast food.  I hate cheese so know that none of my selections come with cheese and I am a picky eater so I special order a lot!

Burger King- I love their Whopper (no pickles onions or tomatoe) all that stuff gets in the way. I open the whopper and eat the lettuce. Then I add more ketchup b/c they never put enough. The whopper is only one of two places I will actually have mayo on the burger.  (Sometimes I have onion rings b/c I love fried onions but BK's rings always disappoint.)

Carl's Jr-  grilled chicken sandwich- plain...just chicken and bread please (I like to add my own BBQ sauce)!  or the $6 Burger (no pickles or onion) for that one I will open the burger and eat the tomato then the lettuce and then put on more ketchup  ;D ) I know it's an illness... no sides.  I was there the other day and saw they have new shakes mmmm but I was able to resist the shake! 


Chick-fil-a
- The original chicken sandwich and sometimes a side of chicken nuggets... I know... but since I don't eat their waffle fries I suppose it's okay!  ;D

McDonald's- my list is long because I love McD's... a hamburger (or a double cheeseburger no cheese) extra onions... I know but on the kids burger they dice the onions so they are digestable. I used to ask for a quarter pounder dressed with hamburger toppings (ie diced onions) but it always confused them so I just started ordering more burgers.  Extra ketchup. I am a Heinz girl but McD burgers requires McD's ketchup.

Sometimes I get nuggets but haven't had any in about 6 months. 

oh and apple pies. I think there's crack in McD's Apple pies because I order them EVERY FRIGGIN TIME I GO IN!!!!

and Fries of course McDs has the best fries on the planet I don't care if I find one in my car five weeks later and it still looks the same as the day I bought it I love me some Mickey D'z fries!!!

Wendy's Wendy's has pretty good fries too. In Holland we eat dip fries in Mayo. Its not something I do often... plus you need just the right kind of mayo. but there is something about Wendy's fries that scream for mayo...fortunately I don't eat there alot. I also love their Homestyle chicken sandwich. Plain...just chicken and bread and I eat it that way.

They have good chili too. I have never liked the square burger tho.


KFC Original recipe pls.  For chicken I have developed an unusual habit. I only like wings and legs. It seems to me that chickens have been injected so much with crap that the other pieces are always fatty but the legs and wings never disappoint.



Finally I have a french fry tip for those who love to salt their fries and dip them into ketchup. Instead of salting the fry salt the ketchup that way the salt stays on the fry  ;)

I was born in Holland, in Utrecht. My father was in the Air Force and stationed there in the late 60s.
We moved to the states when I was 3 or 4. I only spoke Dutch and my mom spoke some English but my father had immersed himself in Holland and spoke Dutch most of the time and always with her family so English was never spoken in the home.

When we came back to the states my father had a 3 week leave so we stayed with his "sister" really she was his aunt (long messed up family history there) they're only a year or two apart and were raised as siblings. Something more for a PM ya know... Needless to say I wasn't talking much but I have lots of pics of that time.

Anyway- My dad got his orders and we moved to Riverside CA.  and shortly we got there my dad got his orders for Viet Nam Leaving my limited English speaking mom with a Toddler in 1970's Cali woo hoo!

Would it surprise you to learn that I learned English from TV?  Electric Company was awesome for that! Plus Seasame Street and Romper Room.  And I have vivid memories of Cal Worthington (& his dog spot) commercials... funny what the mind holds.

I used to love to fly but developed a severe anxiety about it when I was 15 so I haven't been back to Holland since I was 14.

Oh in a sad twisted turn of events I was fluent in dutch until high school. Apparently my aptitude for languages only allows me to hold two languages at a time so when I had to take Spanish in high school I was having problems because I could only come up with the dutch words. Finally I let go of the dutch to take in the spanish. Now I speak some weird hybrid of both languages. I know enough of each to get by if someone speaks to me VEEEERRYYY SLOOOWWLY  ;D .

As I say Ik verstaand Netherlands mar ik praat neit so good.  Sorry Henk I actually never learned to read or write dutch. My mom hates that she let me lose the language the way I did.

Funny thing is, well for me anyway, is that what I thought was fluent dutch apparently wasn't  quite so fluent. See my maternal grandmother was from Suriname. And my maternal grandfather was from Holland. So my mother lived half her life in Holland and Half her life in Suriname because her parents had houses in both countries or something... I don't really know. I have pics of me in Suriname but I was an infant.... like 18 months.

Anyway- all these years I didn't know but my moms family speaks their own hybrid language a mix of Dutch and Surinamese (or what ever it is)... I work with a guy who is dutch and I said something to him in dutch one day and he said "What the hell language are you speaking?" and that's how I learned that I am quasi-trilingual well I guess quad lingual if you add English too.  ;D


I have become far too Americanized to feel Dutch but I am always proud to claim it when I can.

You probably speak (spoke) Surinamese Dutch as it is (was?) a Dutch colony.

yeah it was definately a hybrid of the two languages. its funny though because the entire family speaks it so I had no idea that what i was speaking was different than the Dutch Henk speaks. well most of it's the same really there are just some slang words my family picked up that was incorporated to my use of the language. Since I was never formally educated I just assumed the words I used were words every one knew.

If you dial 911 from a mobile phone does it still go to the local dispatch centre?

Yeah in the Santa Barbara depending on where you are when you call it will go to the Santa Barbara City Police, Santa Barbara County Sheriff, California Highway Patrol or the University Police at UCSB. 

Of course there is a margin of error if you happen to be close to the invisible line that divides jurisdiction-
but the call centers are set up so that once we figure out where you are calling from we can easily transfer you to the right agency.

Thanks.  It's something we were discussing last week at James's Wolf Cub meeting.  I wasn't sure how things worked here in the US

In the UK the 'area code' you dial to a mobile phone doesn't tell you the area of the country they live in - it tells you you are dialling a mobile phone.  When you dial the emergency services it doesn't go to your local area emergency operator necessarily so you need to know in great detail where you are located so they can pass your call on correctly.

wow that's scary.  I get calls from people who have no idea where they are and you want to help but its hard. Now the cell phones have GPS and we just installed a mapping system that plots their location on a map. It gets close but not spot on.

I think in smaller areas (more rural) the 911 calls route to not necessarily the nearest to your present location but to the nearest one where your phone service is located.  When I moved from eastern Ohio to western Ohio several years ago, and called 911 because of a car accident that happened behind me, it routed my call back to eastern ohio (some 200 miles away).  But then that was 5 years ago, so maybe it's different now.  It might be worth looking into your cell phone service provider for more information.

I did... I love it when shows depict a dispatcher. My all time faves...mostly because they are so hilarious are an episode of SVU "OMG I think it's him" I don't remember the actual episode I just remember the dispatcher rec'ing a call from a serial rapist killer and her reaction to it.

Also, my all-time fav is from a Chips episode titled 11-99  (11-99 is a code created by CHP it is the code officers use in the state of CA for Officer Down)

anyway Grossie has a new beeper on his belt that is supposed to alert the dispatch center if the officer is prone. Grossie falls chasing a stray dog, the beeper is activated and the dispatcher totally freaks out... it is HILARIOUS!!

I use it in training and tell the trainees..."Don't do this!"  ;D

I guess that is true about all occupations.  Rarely does Hollywood ever get it right, simply because they "jazz" it up to make it more... dramatic I guess.  ::)
I know the shows that I've seen librarians portrayed on almost always portray them being so snooty and with a stick up their backside.  Where in real life, no librarian I ever met was like that.  lol

I know every nurse I ever talked to said the show "ER" was so awful because it just made them all look imcompetant and horny.  ;D  Not saying the latter might not be entirely a bluff, but well yeah, you know what I mean.  ;D

hate to tell you this but I was in a library a couple weeks back (classes ya know) and I borrowed 6 books.
Unfortunately one of the books landed on my overloaded floor and precariously placed (unused) speaker stand was accidentally put onto of it. This speaker stand has a large nail on the bottom to keep it place on carpet.

Unfortunately the nail went through the cover first 5 pages of the book.  :-[ The first two pages of reading material didn't have a hole but a dent but there was a hole in the tille page and those mysterious blank pages books have that I am finally thankful for.

I need the book for a couple more days and put tape over the hole in the cover so it would tear any further -  mind you the spine had already been taped by the library to keep it intact.

I took the book and apologized for the damage and offered to pay for it. The guy helping me was very kind. The woman at the reference desk looked at the book and gave me a cold look. Then she asked who put tape on it- she rolled her eyes when I said I did. 

It was a lender from another branch so they have to find out if that branch wants me to pay. After the guy walked back to me she said very loudly..."And make sure you note it on her account"  IT WAS AN ACCIDENT FOR PETE'S SAKE! I could've just put the book in the bin and walked but I tried to do the right thing. What a bitch!  >:(

;D  OK, you found the ONE mean librarian.  We try to hide her at various libraries but SOMEONE always finds her.  ;) ;D

I wouldn't worry about it too much, you did do the right thing.  Stuff happens, ya know?  Even I, as a librarian, have had my share of...erm...accidents with books. 
AND, like you, it seemed to always be with books that came from other libraries.  It must be a curse, I'm thinking!

But the books got revenge, this massive pharmacy book fell off the top shelf and hit me in the head, I was seeing stars.  ;D

OK, sorry to hijack your thread to talk about librarians (I have my own thread about that!)

Since you and I are television addicts:

What are your favorite shows?  What shows can you not stand?  What shows/characters would you change, for instance, you really like a character from one series, but the writers for the series they are on, write TERRIBLE dialogue or scenes for them, how would you change it or put them on another series?  I hope that makes sense... lol

OK, so given that you like Mafia 3 something or other (sorry, can't remember) what other music do you like?

and for random question of the day, what size shoe do you wear?  Do you like wearing shoes at home or do you go barefoot as much as you can?

you can hijack my thread anytime you like. I should find your library thread since I've had a question about a short story that's been dogging me for years. btw you and Gis maybe I have found my connection to locating it! but that's for another time. . .


Favorite shows- I was going to say besides the obvious? But I feel the need to include them.

I am almost compulsive about the shows I watch and the list is long but I will clean it up a bit.

B&W shows- I like the standards like Andy Griffith and Lucy (tho I'm a little sick of Lucy since it's always on!)
My favs are Leave It to Beaver, Donna Reed, Dick Van Dyke & My Three Sons (It started in B&W) I miss when TV Land only showed old shows or when Nick @ Nite boasted an all B&W line up.

70's Mary Tyler Moore, Charlie's Angels (I can't explain it but it really impacted me growing up!), Vega$ (I wish this were on DVD).  I hated All in the Family growing up but I love it now.

80's - Facts of Life (to be fair it could've gone in 70s too), Fame, Kate & Allie

90's/00's Friends, Charmed, Alias, Medium (can't tell if it's canceled or coming back as a midseason replacement)

Current  Bones, Criminal Minds, Heroes, Life, Ugly Betty, Simpsons, King of the Hill, SVU, CI, Lost


Reality/Talk shows
- Oprah, the View, Amazing Race, Survivor, Top Chef, Hell's Kitchen, THE SOUP!!!!

I really scaled that list down...

The truth is I love dialogue; so well written shows capture my interest!

Cagney & Lacey
Roseanne  (Joss Whedon, Buffy & Amy Sherman, Gilmore Girls- both wrote for this show!)
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Designing Women
Murphy Brown
Gilmore Girls
Veronica Mars
Third Watch
House


^these are, in my opinion, some of the best shows that have ever been produced.


My So-Called Life, John Doe, Boomtown, Related, The Inside & Women's Murder Club (oh and Veronica Mars) are shows that were canceled far too soon


SHOWS I CAN'T STAND:

I hate shows that depict black people in a negative light (read that as buffoonish) I would've loved Good Times but I hate JJ and never would have had that character. He added very little to the series IMO. 

Likewise, while Archie Bunker was 'lovable' I find George Jefferson intolerable.

I hate the new shows centered on people famous for nothing at all.  Simple Life would have been better if Paris and Nicole had to live in LA earning 1000 a month. Watching them trying to do with out Guuchi, Prada and limos and have to pay bills and cook would have been far more entertaining than watching them sabotage someone's business.

The Hills and the ....of Love shows are obnoxious.

Any talk show where people throw things or fight is awful.

All those shows that rec'd ratings this summer Japanese Game show, fall off the ball (whatever) and that new one on fox Hole in the wall...Ridiculous.

YEah I watched Queen Bees but more in a "roll your eyes" what is America coming to sort of way!



The mix-mash question is intriguing but requires some thought. 

Off the top of my head I thought I would like to do a little CSI shake up. Get all my favs of the various CSI shows on one and fire the boring ones. Read boring as... David Caruso, William Peterson and that NY Dude is that Gary Sinse?

I would also like to fire Anthony Lapaglia and Poppy Montgomery from Without a Trace- what is that accent she uses anyway? The actress is Aussie or english or something and the character is supposed to have a West Virginia (I think) accent...Its horrible.

I have no problem with the writing of either Bones or House but I wonder how Brennan would react to house and how House would react to Brennan?

I need to think about this one some more.


SHOES.

I wear an 81/2 wide. I always wear tennis shoes, sometimes walking/hiking boots. never flip flops or sandals.

I have a weird anti-foot thing. I don't want to see feet, touch feet or think about feet. The only time I touch my own is when I am in the shower or when I put on socks. I know it's weird.... Tam's current myspace photo totally creeps me out!  ;D

Having said that tho. I have noticed that whenever people wear flipflops they  ALWAYS wind up touching their feet or playing with their toes but rarely do they do this while wearing PROPER shoes.  Check it out next time you're sitting somewhere with someone who has on flipflops .

Oops I forgot the music question.


Three 6 Mafia was the group. 
I like rap music, if you look on my top friends of myspace you'll see Playboy 7 (he's a rapper) I've known him since he was a toddler and I was 5.  The music can be misogynistic but it doesn't bother me.  Whoopi Goldberg says she has no problem w/ people using the "n" word because they are not talking about her... for the record I hate that word and only tolerate it in my rap music but when rappers call women b's or hoes I know they aren't talking about me so I don't care.


My favs tho... the music I cannot be without is TLC, Janet Jackson, Eminem, Boyz to Men, Journey, Bob Segar  the Dreamgirls Soundtrack, and a random sampling of 80s music.

Let's see.

When I was a kid we moved a lot and I was a strange kind of bossy and shy so I had a difficult time making friends.

Fortunately I had lots of friends in my TV to keep me company.

As I got older I watched lots of cop shows and thought I wanted to be a cop.

I took classes at the Delta College in Stockton and got my AA in Criminal Justice but I knew my temperament wasn't suited for law enforcement. Plus I knew I didn't want to get shot.

Then I was watching General Hospital one day and saw a reflection of a camera man and it hit me right away (Oprah would call it my Aha moment)  I didn't want to be a cop I wanted to work on a cop show!!!!

So I applied to UCLA & UCSB and got into one... as much as I love UCSB I wish I'd applied to USC too (they have a TV program). Anyway I majored in film but needed to find a job while going to school. I had an AA in Crim. Justice and applied with a dept and got the job. I've worked for this dept for 11 years now. I started as a community service officer- and then  when a dispatch position opened up I got the job.


Before working here- I was stocked the shelves graveyard shift at a grocery store but I kept falling asleep in class.  ;D

Before that I worked with Americorps- we took at risk youth and got them into community service by taking them to convalescent homes.

Before that I worked about 20 years in retail.  Barnes & Noble, a small toy store in Stockton and Toys R US in Salinas Ca

My first job was at a movie theater. I made $3.35 an hour!  ;D


If I could do anything at all--- I would be retired-- and I'd spend my days tooling around LA going to TV show tapings and meeting celebs!

But if I couldn't afford to do that I would love to work for a show. Like I would love to be writer's assistant or script supervisor for a show I love.  Or Continuity I would absolutely love  being in charge of continuity on a set.  

But those jobs don't pay as well as this one and I wouldn't be able to afford the lifestyle I've become accustomed to (And I refuse to live with people!) so I continue to dispatch until I win the lotto.


As a little girl I wanted to be one of Charlie's Angels  ;D

Oh I was getting there!!!  ;D





So, Q....why are you so certifiably crazy? ....and what can be done about it?  ;D





I am an only child.

My parents worked....a lot...

so I was left to my own devices growing up.

I didn't have a lot of friends because most of the places I lived the friendships had already been pre-established.

Guess I've been crazy most of my life. That's what happens when a kid with an over active imagination is left alone for hours at a time.

Plus... when I was in 4th grade we lived in Wash DC.

That's where my dad is from. He had a niece (actually a cousin but whatever) she was 13 and I was 9. She lived in the ghetto with her mom, two brothers and her sister. they had two rooms... it was a lot like Good Times.

We lived on base in a four bedroom.  I had a bedroom and a playroom...yeah I was kind of spoiled but my parents worked hard and could afford to buy me stuff... 

Anyway- my father wanted to "save" his niece (cousin) and invited her to stay the summer with us. My father felt because he got out of the ghetto she could too but she had to work for it. She was to young to get it and instead hated me because I had stuff. My parents would leave the house before  8 am and by 9 am she was kicking my ass.

I used to lock myself in the downstairs bathroom and stay there from early morning until my father came home for lunch then I would lock myself in before he left until they came home at 6. She broke almost all my toys and broke my mom's favorite lamp and said I did it.  (My mom knew me well enough to know I always admit when I screw up) but I didn't tell them about the abuse so for two weeks I spent the better part of the day cramped in a half bath. 

Wouldn't that make you crazy too? 

and no I don't think there's a remedy for my particular mental illness.


Oh I finally told my folks what was up and they sent her back to the ghetto. She grew up to be a crack whore or something.. seriously I have little to no contact with that side of the family.  Her brothers were great though. One died of AIDs in the 80s and the other is raising her kids for her.

The only time I find myself wishing for a sib is when I have to deal with the whole parental obligation thing. It's great you took care of your mom but I'm not built that way. Plus they live 500 miles away and expect me to quit my job and move to AZ if something happens because I rent a small apt and they own a home.... I hate Arizona. I'd be less grumpy if they moved back to California.



The only sandwich I will eat at Subway is Tuna (on wheat) my favorite toppings for tuna are mayo, mayo & mayo  ;D  oh yeah and black pepper and Classic Lays potato chips.



I haven't seen Mad Men although I feel I need to. I like to keep some shows a mystery to me that way when a couple of seasons are avail on DVD I can devour them. That's what I did with House (now in season 5) I watched seasons 1 - 4 this summer.



I will post more questions in your thread, I promise, just as soon as I come up with some.



I wish they'd make Barbies for my favorite TV shows.  They have a series of I Love Lucy barbies.  I'd love to see a Buffy barbie. Some other company came out with an 11 inch barbie-like doll depicting Buffy but I want a Barbie Buff Doll.


Good questions. Pls ask more!  ;)

She's my favorite fashion designer and style icon and I just like her. And I love her doll because it's actually the first multi-ethnic Barbie that Mattell has made because Kimora herself is African-American, Japanese and Korean.  :)  Do you know where I can get this doll from?

Thanks!  ;D (It'll look great next to my MJ and Liz Taylor dolls! )

I didn't have a lot of friends because most of the places I lived the friendships had already been pre-established.

Guess I've been crazy most of my life. That's what happens when a kid with an over active imagination is left alone for hours at a time.

Plus... when I was in 4th grade we lived in Wash DC.

That's where my dad is from. He had a niece (actually a cousin but whatever) she was 13 and I was 9. She lived in the ghetto with her mom, two brothers and her sister. they had two rooms... it was a lot like Good Times.

We lived on base in a four bedroom.  I had a bedroom and a playroom...yeah I was kind of spoiled but my parents worked hard and could afford to buy me stuff... 

Anyway- my father wanted to "save" his niece (cousin) and invited her to stay the summer with us. My father felt because he got out of the ghetto she could too but she had to work for it. She was to young to get it and instead hated me because I had stuff. My parents would leave the house before  8 am and by 9 am she was kicking my ass.

I used to lock myself in the downstairs bathroom and stay there from early morning until my father came home for lunch then I would lock myself in before he left until they came home at 6. She broke almost all my toys and broke my mom's favorite lamp and said I did it.  (My mom knew me well enough to know I always admit when I screw up) but I didn't tell them about the abuse so for two weeks I spent the better part of the day cramped in a half bath. 

Wouldn't that make you crazy too? 

and no I don't think there's a remedy for my particular mental illness.


Oh I finally told my folks what was up and they sent her back to the ghetto. She grew up to be a crack whore or something.. seriously I have little to no contact with that side of the family.  Her brothers were great though. One died of AIDs in the 80s and the other is raising her kids for her. 






I didn't really expect an answer (as you're not really crazy)......but you have had an interesting life so far......and you're still around to tell the tale.  ;)

I have my father's sick, weird, twisted sense of humor... I have my mom's lack of patience...actually I am way more patient than my mom but that's not saying much  ;D

Some days I roll with it, but on the days I'm channeling mom I can feel the blood boil and I just walk out tired of the long lines....

I'm closer to my mom than my dad which is weird because I am more like him... she doesn't give a crap about music or TV....tho I did get her into Celebrity Apprentice and Amazing Race... sundays are fun!

We talk all the time. My dad isn't a big communicator so we mostly just sit in silence but its cool because he lets me watch whatever I want... my mom and I fight for the tv...we have to bargain...you take this hour then I take the next...  ;D


Favorite food....

Wow I love food so that hard for me.... If I have to make it then Spaghetti... I make kick ass spaghetti... but can't cook much else...
My mom makes this Indonesian Dish called Roti... its essentially a curry chicken, green beans and potatoes on a tortilla... LOVE IT....
Or Fried shrimp and lobster...cuz I love shellfish!

and of course steak, pork chops and steak....porter house if you want to know my favorite cut!  ;)

Now when you say getting jiggy with with your husband... does that mean you are.... like you know...making whoppee? Or dancing to old will smith songs?  ;D

How close are you with them? I would take one aside and say... while I appreciate your company- the old man and I are trying to have some he and me time...

with regards to the party.... order them a pizza, a big pizza...and make arrangements for delivery just before your friends arrive....perhaps they'll be so absorded with free pizza they won't show up...

or...put a padlock on the fence- then when they try to get your attention to let them ignore them... make sure the musics loud so can say you didn't see/hear them later....  ;)

How do you get into SO many celebrity events?  Do you belong to a club or something?

Ever been in the audience of a game show?  If you could be a contestant on a game show, which one would it be? (Can be one that isn't on the air anymore.)

okay so there's this organization in NY and LA that used to be called The Museum of Television and Radio....its now called the Paley Center for Media (named after the founder of CBS William S. Paley) 

Anyway- I have a membership to the one in Beverly Hills.... throughout the year they put on these events... sort of like inside the actor's studio- because its a panel discussion with actors, producers, writers, directors and creative teams behind the most celebrated shows on TV...

Every year they have an event called PaleyFest....and this is two weeks worth of shows. One event a night I buy the big package so I get to go to some after parties...

Its a whole thing some of us do every year. There's a facebook pic (several actually) of my friends and I in line these guys have become good friends and I met them at Paleyfest last year. 

Game show taping? No I haven't gone to one of those but I have been to a bunch of Sitcom tapings.

If I could be on any game show I would have wanted to be on Tic Tac Dough. Or Concentration with Alex Trebek.. I was good at those.

Also- last year Who Wants to Be A Millionaire was doing themed episodes... I would have loved to have been on a TV themed episode....

Funny story... about 4 years ago I tried out to be on a new game show.  The show aired on PAX. I made it to the final round...then they said we are going to give you two words and you have to name the celebrity... they said "Georgia" and "Brother"  I thought it was Jennifer Jason Leigh (cuz she was in a movie called Georgia... I had no idea what brother had to do with it... anyway it was Julia Roberts...Damn I love Julia Roberts... I should have gotten it... anyway.. they didn't want me as a contestant.  :\'(


YAY this is fun!!! Please ask more!

Yeah they came out with the original Julia doll back when the show was on the air but she wasn't dressed like a nurse.  she was wearing a gold lamie (I think its lamie I'm not all that fashionable) jumpsuit... gold and silver actually  ;D

I do have one MJ doll... now don't get mad at me...but I bought it at a swap meet in sometime between  1990-96 and I just had to have it cuz it was naked and (as I said at the time) anatomically correct.  I never got any clothes for it... but I don't know if I'm ready to part with it yet... its a fun memory for me.  ;) 

I still have to clean out my apartment tho... I am such a procrastinator... and when I do I will let you know if I find any other MJ stuff.

If I made a prince doll it would totally be from Purple Rain wearing this outfit

Yeah... I never got the Grease Dolls they came out with a couple years ago.  I really wanted those.


and I'm digging this doll

Did you know that Demi Moore collects dolls too?  I read somewhere that she bought a house just to display her dolls (don't know if that's true or just gossip.)

As for gameshows:  There used to be one called "Beat the geeks" that I wanted to go on, where you are pitted against other "experts" in various fields of trivial knowledge...you'd definately give the T.V. geek a run for his money.

What is it that you like about dolls?

If you could save enough money (or were fabulously rich) would you get those dolls that have have real diamonds/other gems on their clothes?

Is there such a thing as a Barbie Museum?  Wanna go sometime?  lol

No I didn't know that about Demi Moore... that's cool!

I do remember Beat the Geeks... I would love to go on that show. When I was working on my film degree at UCSB they offered a TV class for the first time. The professor was new (younger than me) I was pretty well know around the department because the Film Studies Chairperson liked me and told everyone about my vast knowledge of TV...

I took the class for fun and the prof would say something like daytime TV addressed social issues before many primetime shows..... isn't that right Tq? Or- Historically, TV would.... now correct me if I'm wrong Tq..... it was pretty funny.  Shockingly... I got an A in the class.


When I was sometime between the age of 3 and 5 I had a Mrs Beasley doll...like Jodie had from Family Affair. I carried her with me everywhere. I don't know what happened to her but I have since purchased another one because of the nostalgia behind it...don't really know how I got into collecting barbies... I sort of blame my mom...

You know I am a slob.... always have been- which is weird because I am also a germaphobe but I guess my own mess doesn't freak me out as much  ;D

anyway- when I was 8 or so... my mom told me if I didn't clean my room she was going to throw all my toys away... I should have believed her.... she threw everything away.... EVERYthing... she did it again when I was 11. That time she threw away all my barbies, my Charlies Angels dolls, my CA Van, my barbie vette....everything...

As I got older I was traumatized by these events...(although I never learned my lesson) and at the age of 18 I worked at Toys R Us.. I was working the barbie aisle and I was like.... I used to have this one and that one and that one too... plus they had a whole lot of new barbies...I was intrigued. I also fell in love with Jem at that time and decided to buy all the Jem dolls... I got them all but Roxy... My friend I drove all up northern Ca trying to find a stupid roxy... I eventually found one at a doll show a few years later. 

During this time I became obsessed with getting all the barbies I lost and I found a place in the bay area...its now the Doll Attic/Barbie Museum...the museum was founded in 2004 but the Doll Attic was basically a large store full of vintage Barbies for sale... I spent about $300 replacing my Charlie's Angels Doll... I never did get a CA Van... I really want that damn van....

I think next time I'm in the bay area I will check out the Doll Attic and see what they have...I haven't been there in about 15 years.
If you want to go....come on down to Cali...I'll go with ya!

As for buying a barbie with real diamonds- that doesn't really interest me.... owning Barbies is about as girlie as I get... Diamonds do nothing for me... now a barbie with a working TV in her gown? That excites me...

His Girl Friday is my favorite. I have to think about others. I'm more of a gregory peck fan.

I'll be busy Friday I'm going to a conference and the criminal minds season finale is that night. Sorry but shemar trumps jimmy

I'm more of a Sydney Poitier fan myself...but ... 

hmmm have you seen His Girl Friday? that's got Cary Grant...  Philadelphia Story? Bringing Up Baby? we may have talked about these before but I forget.

I don't think I've seen a George Brent film... I'm not too big on Clark

as for Jimmy... I have Shop Around the Corner ready for watching this weekend.. Cant think of too many others....the ones I can think of you've probably seen...  Rope, Mr Smith, Wonderful Life...


You know what! I'm not going to conform to your likes I'm going to try to get you to stretch your boundaries...  :D

My Favorite Classic films... B&W films are like

Pinky
Cabin in the Sky
Stormy Weather
the Thin Man Movies!
Strangers on a Train (its my favorite Hitchcock film)
Children's Hour
Paths of Glory


there's more but that's it for now...

Patch of Blue is my favorite Poitier film...but that's probably because, for some reason, I have yet to watch Lillies in the Field.
Raisin in the Sun!
Porgy and Bess
Defiant Ones, In the Heat of the Night and Guess who's coming to dinner... not in that order...



as for Dorothy Dandridge I found this site http://home.hiwaay.net/~oliver/dandridge.html

also this site that sells pics http://www.moviemarket.co.uk/Photos/Dorothy_Dandridge_P200448.html



not for nothing but Prince actually does absolutely nothing for me... so I'd have to say I find him most tolerable oh.... in I guess some of those pics with a five o'clock shadow when he's not wearing heels and ambiguous clothing...  :)

My back kills me regularly... I have a back injury from 2001 and it still bothers me when I stand or sit for too long or sleep the wrong way...


If I were to retire I would probably do exactly what I do on my days off... watch tv... uber post here and go to la to meet celebs!  ;D
I don't have a great desire to travel because we moved a lot when I was a kid so I like being at home with my stuff!!!

Fire stations have paramedics but also there are ambulance companies that have their own paramedics and EMTs... we house a fire engine at our station but I don't dispatch and we operate our own ambulance... with our own paramedic and students who are EMTs...
I could not do that job because
1) I hate needles
2) vomit makes me vomit
3) I don't like blood or bodily fluids...bad enough when I have to deal with my own I don't want anyone elses on me...  8-P
4) and they get paid crap... ours make about $14 an hour.. .not enough for that kind of job...

I'd rather be a cop... except for that pesky being in shape requirement...  ;D


That last one is a good question.... I already have... I gave up Mountain Dew about 4 months ago.. I am sad that I no longer drink it... but i need to jump start this getting my health in order...

I joke about it but the one thing I could not live without is the TV.. I am too depended on the company!  I live alone and prefer it that way but its the one thing that keeps me sane..

hmmm I could give up my car if I had too but considering the distance from Public transportation and the hours I work I hope I don't have to..

I've been homeless and don't ever want to do that again so I am not giving up my residence.. 

yeah.... just the mountain dew... I could give up vegetables- I like them and depend on them but I could do without them!  ;D

Do you have to mow your own lawn?






I have a yard but not much of a lawn. I had one once....sod...but it died before it ever grew high enough to be mowed.  I have trees on the other side of my fence....they drop leaves, small ones on the dirt... I like the way it looks so I leave it... its not like huge piles just a small layer of scattered leaves... then my landlord comes and rakes it up... and I have to look at the hard compacted dirt again  ::)

 
When Carly was alive he expanded the part of the yard for her to use...I should be better about weeding it...but I hate yard work so I don't that stuff grows and grows... sometimes he gets out there and tames it...sometimes he has his landscapers do it... I'm a horrible tenant.  ;D

Crazy Taxi
Time Crisis
Hot Pursuit (its a pinball game)
some movie/tv themed pinball games
and oh this game I played at Dave and Busters.... its called Police Emergency or 911 emergency...its a shooter game that has a metal pad- which makes the player on the screen mimic your actual movements!!!! LOVE THAT GAME!

and... well the truth is.. my woman cave- ideally would be a roller rink that I convert to a residence so it also has a roller skating area and a basketball hoop...  :)

Any celebrity that you haven't met yet that you'd LOVE to meet?

I was watching the David Letterman show and he had on Lauren Conrad (The Hills) as a guest.  She mentioned that her show had just done something at the Paley center, and I actually knew what she was talking about!  So you taught me stuff.  You should be proud.  lol
Do you want to babysit a cat (or two?)  Mine are driving me nuts tonight!




I would love to meet Oprah but I'd be so intimidate I wouldn't know what to say..

I've seen both Ellen and Whoopi but never met them.. that would be fun... I would love go to lunch with Rosie.. there were too many fans wanting time. I would love to talk her ear off about growing up a tv addict...

and I'd love to meet the Charlies Angels sans Farrah I suppose  :\'(    I have met Tanya Roberts... at a taping for That 70's Show and she was so sweet to me... and happy that I was an Angels fan but she is my second to least favorite Angel... my least favorite angel (for the record) is Shelly Hack.



glad I taught you something...sorry it was via Lauren Conrad tho  ;)


sorry I'm not much of a cat person...  besides you'd go nuts with out them and you know it!




please ask more questions!!!
(it seems to work for Tiffeny)

Hey Snoz!

Gosh, I keep forgetting that some people actually do like Oprah. I personally don't But I wouldn't be scared to talk to her. She's human. And she  can introduce me to Michael Jackson and Prince. I'll just plaster on my pageant smile and be chummy with her.  :)

Here's some questions:

--Who's your favorite person on food network?

--Which one would you love to cook with?

--Will you post more questions on my threads?

--What toppings do you like on your hot dog?

--What's your favorite flavor of milkshake.  :)

Thank you!

There's a food network??? Really???

just kidding I've heard of food network but I hate everything about cooking except for the eating....  ;D 

oddly enough.... I do love competition cooking shows... well I love Hell's Kitchen and Top Chef.... There is a new Top Chef...featuring Master Chef competing against one another on Bravo...Wed June 10 is the first episode!!! You should watch it... I will be starting a thread about it...

Hmmm who would I cook with? Well I still hate cooking... but there was a chef in competion on Top Chef... dang I forget her name it was the first or second year... I don't think she's on Food Network tho...but she seems like a lot of fun... Um...she works behind the scenes for Top Chef now... and also did some cooking for the movie No Reservations... if you watch the extras you'll see who I'm talking about...

yes I will post in your threads... I have been uberposting in another thread trying to improve the boards standings and sort of forgot to go back to other threads...

Hot dogs? Easy.... a little bit of mustard on both sides of the dog and then a ton of ketchup on top.... I can't stand it when they put mustard on one side and ketchup on the other.... and never, ever put the mustard on top...it ruins it...

I'm a simple girl I don't like a lot of flavors mixed together... when I eat I eat all of one thing then I go on to the next thing.. all my fries then my burger.... I always leave my favorite item as the last thing I eat.... and well if I have a mix of stuff... .like a fruit bowl... I will eat all of one fruit, then all of the next and the all of the next..... starting with my least favorite and ending with my fav...

one of the few things I mix... I like mashed potatoes & gravy with peas and corn...but that's because he frozen foods mashed taters and veggies need to be mixed...  ;D


Oddly I will also mix shakes... I love a Strawberry and Vanilla shake...because vanilla is too vanilla and stawberry is to strawberry.... but mixed it tastes perfect...


or give me an oreo cookie shake!

you ask great questions...



Tap dance? No- I can sort of fake it but I've never had any lessons or anything...

Baton? No.. I can do a basic twirl but nothing really spectacular.

As a kid I was a professional quitter... I quit judo, swimming and something else after the first class...don't know if I thought the work was too hard and not worth the effort... I sort of just wanted to jump right in and do without learning... or if it was all sort of boring so I didn't go back...

I learned to play the flute in 7th grade but i never practiced- I hated it  actually....

I did take drivers ed offered thru the boys catholic school one summer because after my first day driving with my dad i hit a lamp post...we decided it served us better if someone else taught me to drive  ;D

other than that... I don't really take lessons.. I'm rather impatient and i especially don't do well if there is a classroom full of people because once I've learned something I'm ready to take the next step... I don't have much tolerance for slow learners...and stupid questions frustrate the hell out of me... Especially if the instructor has just said "Do this with part A and then do this with part B"  and then some tool says... What should I do with A????  ::)



Favorite animal? I don't really have one... I mean I love dogs and think baby animals are generally cute but I don't really give animals much thought...except when I think.. that cow, chicken or pig was mighty tasty!  ;D



Childhood memory? We talked in some other thread about Dutch Christmas... Sinter Claus and Zwarte Pete (black Pete) I was terrified of Zwarte Pete as a kid and always wound up crying whenever I went to see Sinter Claus cuz I thought Zwarte Pete was going to kidnap, cook and eat me!

I also remember having terrifying nightmares about the troll doll from Trilogy of Terror in my dreams this guy

http://z.about.com/d/horror/1/0/U/n/trilogy_doll.jpg

used to chase me all over the apartment in Panama.....

and when we lived in vegas I used to have nightmares about the One Armed Man from the Fugitive chasing me.... guess I had lots of nightmares as a kid....still do actually...

favorite school memory? When I was a freshman my friends and I used to skip down the hallways singing Follow the Yellow Brick Road - we were kind of lame.....  we also used to sing Johnny B. Goode ala Back to the Future senior year


I was a horrible student...excelled in English... I managed to get thru four years of English without reading a book!  8)
but history, math and science always bored me... especially math and science... I once had a World History Teacher give me an F+ on a test because she thought it would lesson the sting of failing.  ;D

There were 86 people who graduated from my high school I was ranked...85 (1.8 GPA) but to be fair.. I didn't think I was going to college and I couldn't be bothered to work on stuff I didn't care about.... the person who was 86th was pregnant....it was a catholic school.  :)


What I learned about myself is when I take stuff I am interested in- criminal Justice for my AA (I had 3.8) and later Film Studies (3.5) I do well but I still suck at working on something I have no interest in...and I think its unfair that univerisites require specific classes... I have no use for Math above balancing a budget... and no use for science at all... that's why they have people who major in that so I don't have to deal with it......


I am taking a few classes this summer... Blacks in the MEdia... and Ethics.... Ethics is the only  class I actually need because the last time I tried to take it some 22 year old girl walked in and said...

                        so um. like. I'm gonna like be teaching philo 4 and like with philosophy like we pretty much just hang out at like
                        starbucks and stuff reading and like talking... and like yeah... that's where you can like find all the upper division
                        Philo majors....  ::)


yeah... I like... had to like...leave.... and like.... drop that class....you know.  ::)  so hopefully I fare better this time around...

I just reread your question and realized it was favorite childhood toy memory...

when I was a kid I wanted a shot gun... a toy one.... my grand parents were competative....even tho they were married to each other so my grandmother got me a cheapo plastic one and my grandfather got me this really cool "blue steel" metal one with real fake- pump action - and all...it was as close to being real as you could get without it actually firing bb's or something...



If you mean Disneyland? I like the fantasy aspect of it... I'm not the fan of the disney movies I used to be... Really only Bambi and Robin Hood... my favorites are the live action movies... put on something with Johhny Whitaker or Jodie Foster and I will watch it everytime...


I haven't been to Disneyland since 2000- I am due for a visit....especially since its so close... I've never been to Disney world but would love to go...



I don't have a particular Era of TV that I like best....tho TV was still magical before the first writer's strike back in  1988....

I don't like the way do TV now... what with splitting up the seasons so you get half in the fall and the rest in the summer.... I don't like that TV has been dumbed down for the masses.. I love Survivor, amazing race and other competition shows but airing something like Wipeout! Disgusts me.... Pushing Daisies was canceled so that America could laugh at people falling off super sized dodge balls....

I hate that good writing often gets overlooked because something is prettier.... or because the other show on the air doesn't require so much thinking...

And I HATE THAT JAY LENO IS TAKING OVER NBC... 5 hours of JAY LENO during prime time? That's 5 more shows that NBC is not picking up... because they won't stand behind their shows.....Sorry Jay but I hope you fail miserably!


one more to answer but work beckons....brb

When I was sometime between the age of 3 and 5 I had a Mrs Beasley doll...like Jodie had from Family Affair. I carried her with me everywhere. I don't know what happened to her but I have since purchased another one because of the nostalgia behind it...don't really know how I got into collecting barbies... I sort of blame my mom...


My maiden name is Beesley, and my sister had a Mrs. Beasley doll when she was growing up too.  Actually, my sister looked just LIKE a Mrs. Beasley doll when she was little - she wore the exact same glasses and had the blonde hair and round face and everything.  Anyway, my mom bought one about ten years ago, and it still sits proudly on her little rocking chair.   :)

I can't believe your mom threw all your toys away.  She didn't mess around.  My mom used to threaten to do that too, but I always cleaned my schitt up before she could follow through.  I can't imagine what I would have done.   :(

I've really enjoyed reading about you!  I love your roller rink idea!

What makes you laugh the hardest?

What are your biggest pet peeves?  (Non foot-related)

What makes you laugh the hardest?

Aw - I want to see pics of your sis!



celebs I detest.....


Michael Richards and Mel Gibson for the obvious reasons......


Clint Eastwood- because he squints, has a really odd delivery of his lines and well I just don't like his movies (except Million Dollar Baby- but that its because of Hilary Swank that I liked it....or even saw it!)


Tom Green- I think he's an idiot and he totally ruined the Charlie's Angels move (so did Bill Murray by playing Bosley as a buffon but I still like Bill Murray)


Clint Black- I didn't have an opinion of him one way or another but after watching Celeb Apprentice this past season i thought... what an ass!!!! Same goes for Gene Simmons from last season


I'm sure there are more but those are the ones that came to mind.


oh yeah- Yoko Ono cuz that bitch broke up the beatles....... just kidding!  ;D



what makes me laugh the hardest? I don't know I mean sometimes the strangest things crack me up....like that 5 year old- the jokes were so bad they were funny... I love non-sequiturs tho

really crazy stories- cops are the best story tellers.

and usually what makes me laugh really hard is when actors are trying to get through a scene and they crack up.... like Friends with the bagpipes.... they weren't acting they were reacting and it was great....the other one that gets me every time is that blooper from Will and Grace when grace is in the hospital and a nurse is supposed to draw blood.... Debra Messing couldn't keep a straight face because of the actresses voice...there was something about the way the girl said I couldn't pass her driving test because....it was hard that broke Debra up everytime and everytime I watch it I lose it tooo...




Pet peeves..... you may have noticed here on the boards... I'm intolerant of people who can't follow a simple thought... its like some one draws a one, a three and a five and expects you to get where they are but some people need to see the 2 and the 4 to make the leap.... that annoys me -  but even worse some people need 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5  and then you still have to help them get it....


I have a co worker who does the paperwork for new hires... We were talking about new hires and one of our student employees who handles the scheduling for new hires said to her
"Do you work on Monday"
"all day except from 12-1"
"okay- I come by at 2"
"for what?"

me.... "Um...to have you do the new hire paperwork we were just talking about...."  ::)


I don't know it just seems like sometimes the pieces of the puzzle are right there....do we really have to hold your hand and assemble it for you to get you to see the big picture....

the other day Howard posted to Danoot (about the service for her mom)
glad things went well; did they go as planned?

what?!? that question was just odd but be proud I didn't call attention to it!  until now...  ;D



oh and narrow mindedness... I hate that.. I mean I am pretty set in my ways but I feel like I do so to benefit most people and the others...the conservatives are not so open to broader ideas and the big picture...

and religious zealousy  (if that's a word) I'm all for quietly practicing your faith but I wish people would stop trying to convert me and I really hate people praying for me...  I just want people to wish me luck and think positively about me... 

okay I'll stop ranting now....


:)

thanks ash! That felt good!

I am a member of an organization called Paley Center for Media. They have on in Beverley Hills and in NYC.  Paleycenter.org

as a member I get advanced notice for all the events they are going to do and sometime can get tickets early.

And yes if you want to go to the next Desperate Housewives event its doable but... you'd have to fly here..... I don't know if they do desperate housewives in the UK but alot of tv shows have fan events there. I have a friend who flew there for a Supernatural Event.

Since you're a film buff, what's your take on theatrical animation?

Are you aware that some feature celebrity caricatures and pop culture referances from the era? (Honestly as an average joe, I'm only familiar with a few and gotten info from commentary and other boards)

One example would be "A Tale Of Two Kitties", which feature cats caricaturized as Abbot & Costello against Tweety or cartoons like "Autograph Hound" (Donald Duck) or Warner Bros. "Hollywood Steps Out".

I'm not the animation buff you are... my experience with theatrical animation goes back to when I was a kid going to see the "newest" disney movie... I didn't know how old those films were when I was kid.

Then the more recent influx of the Pixar films. I'm a fan of pixar flix and there are TONS of references in them! I probably catch about 90% of the references...

I have always been aware (and been a big fan of) self referential media.... in terms of animation. Looney tunes did it a lot...and even as a kid I had been widely exposed to old movies and stuff so I was able to identify a lot of the actors being characterized in the clips.

Later Animaniacs carried on the tradition quite nicely and those jokes came quick but I still caught most of them.

Do you like any casino games such as Blackjack, Poker, or Slot Machines?

Can you walk and chew bubble gum at the same time?  How about patting your head and rubbing your tummy and saying a tongue twister like "Rubber Baby Buggy Bumpers" all at the same time?

When did you learn to tie your shoes? 

How tall are you?

Did you ever want brothers or sisters?

What is your favorite color?
Do you have a favorite painting or painter?

I love slot machines...especially the ones with built in mini games I can play those for hours....

I'm not so good at blackjack and poker....

once I was playing black jack and I threw $40 down for change.. I was sort of day dreaming and the dealer had set my chips in the betting area... she was about to deal and I said WAIT  and pulled out $35 bucks... she said next time you can't change your bet... I said I wasn't betting the whole thing I just wanted change....  she said okay and dealt me a black jack...that bitch... I would have had $100  >:(

no but I can sing Red Rubber Ball..... I prefer Neil Diamond's lesser known version... I wish it were avail on CD or as an MP3!


When did you learn to tie your shoes? 


I don't remember.... kindergarten or first grade probably....

in second grade I once wore a zip up jumpsuit and got my tummy skin stuck in the zipper...that hurt like a mother!!!! I was afraid of zippers for years afterwards!  ;D



How tall are you?


5'2" and 1/4... sometimes I fudge and say I'm 5'3"  :-
Did you ever want brothers or sisters?


as a kid not really but the older I get the more I wish there were someone else to carry the burden cuz I know I'm not cut out for caring for the 'rents when the time comes  :(


growing up What is your favorite color?


blue like that pretty royal blue from the 80s 



Do you have a favorite painting or painter?


I have to get back to you on this because a couple of years ago I was exposed to some art that I really really loved... and I went on and on about wanting works from two authors... but now I can't recall who they were... so I want to find my research... its rather embarassing since I was so enamored with their work!


thanks tho! These are really great questions!!!  :)

Okay I finally remembered one name....

Radcliffe Bailey. This guy takes old photos and uses them in his art work...its all black art...sorry I'm still opposed to the whole African-American thing...


http://www.arthurrogergallery.com/images/thumbnail/Radcliffe_Bailey_Uncured_Labor_1646_32.jpg

This is titled Uncured Labor...its a pic of a Tobacco field that has yet to be worked by slaves...its hard to tell, I think, but see the rail road tracks running thru his painting? that was an homage to the Under Ground railroad.... presumably...I think why there are no slaves in this particular picture.... anyway he did a whole series of works that have the railroad tracks in them... I would love one of those works....


now to recall the other artist...who is my favorite  :-[  her name is right on the tip of my tongue....  :(

Was Lorraine Toussant as nice as she appears?  I know, it's a bad habit to think that they are like the characters they play on t.v.  I might have to start watching "Saving Grace" now that I know she's on it.  Although in the commercials, she seems a bit of a ... um... aggressive woman... lol  Might have just been the episode though.

your boredom totally works in my favor!!!!!


I'm breaking this down into two posts because ....we need the post count  ;)  and I have a feeling my answer to your first question may be long  ;D

Lorraine Toussaint was very nice...very elegant and classy. I'd met her once before for an event about Any Day Now - that event was my first and one of my favorites... if you ask me to I'll tell you why  ;) 

and she was kind then too... Holly Hunter talked....... a lot........ and I think the cast was a little bored because she didn't let any of them really say much... but she, Holly, had so many wonderful things to say about everyone she works with... or she was blowing big ole smoke stacks up their ass...she's  great actress so its hard to tell  ;D

Lorraine and Nancy Miller have worked on three shows now apparently... I guess the third is an episode of the Closer but I can't tell... Imdb let me down on that one.  Oh no...I found it...the third was Threat Matrix.  anyway Lorraine said she would read the newspaper on camera if Nancy Miller wrote the article.  ;D 

Nancy calls Lorraine her lucky charm...2 shows out of three aint bad.... Lorraine came on Saving Grace in the second or third episode....

Grace is definitely an aggressive character...she's a loud mouth, sex crazed drunk who happens to be a really good cop.... the thing they pointed out at the event is prior to the shield this show would never make it on the air! Especially not with a woman...she's like Christine Cagney but amplified by 20!  :o

Its a bit in your face being on cable and all... they say shyt a lot... and some of the sex scenes would be raunchy for HBO  ;D but the Grace is a flawed character...she has had a lot of tragedy in her life... and lives with a lot of guilt. I don't want to reveal all the stuff grace has to deal with because the way it unfolds in the series is flawless and almost necessary....

I'll give you one....the show is set in Oklahoma and her sister died in the Oklahoma bombing... but what we eventually learn is that the sister was getting some paperwork or something... she was supposed to go the day before the bombings but Grace was off getting drunk....or having sex....or both.... instead of baby sitting like she promised so the sister has to go the next day instead....and dies...grace carries that guilt and about a hundred other burdens...

Its a good time to catch up because it season three takes things in a new direction....and one thing to remember is that like we all do in real life- grace evolves...the grace we see in season three would not do....not on the same level at least...the stuff that grace of season one did.

the best part of the show...is the relationship between Laura San Giacomo and Holly Hunter.... its like Nancy took that relationship between M.E. and Rene from ADN and somehow made it even stronger.... I can't explain it... these two Rhetta and Grace have been friends since kindergarten... and the actress capture it so realisitically... I wanna see a Rhetta and Grace ala Thelma and Lousie road trip ep!!!!

Then there's the who religious aspect....its that whole is there a god- do angels exist- do you believe in miracles.... but its not that in your face religious crap that I hate.... they deal with real questions and say there are no easy answers....and... hmmmm if god can choose someone like grace to help him improve the world...then maybe he isn't as judgmental as the fundamentalists make him out to be!  :)


Do your self a favor and rent the show....the seasons are short... 13 eps season one... and 14 eps season two... and as good as those seasons were season three started off even better!!!!


I have stepped down and put the podium away!  ;D


can you tell I love this show!  ::)


now didn't you ask me some more questions?

If you were to change your name, what would it be?




for one summer in 1977 I insisted every one call me Jill (as in Munroe)  :-

If you could go back and relive 3 things in your life, what would they be?




do I get to experience them as they were? do I get to change the events for a more suitable outcome? do I get to live them for a period of time or are we talking just one specific moment? soooo many options.....




If you could go back and change 3 things in your life, what would they be?




see what I get for not reading ahead????


okay Relive----

The first one that comes to mind is Carly... I would just love to go back and even if I could spend one day with her I would make it the best day ever....  If I could change things I would walk her more... and I would have taken her to a different vet  >:(

I went to a diana ross concert when I was in the 9th or 10th grade... I would love to have that moment back it was great....

and- well any of these paley events I would love to relive again.... especially Any Day Now, House was great....Gilmore Girls, Cagney & Lacey, American dreams and the buffy reunion...

oh just the definitive one... the Freaks and Geeks cast party I got invited too... I would like to redo that one but be more outgoing... It was my first real celebrity party deal and I was terribly shy... I know... not Q...but yeah I was!



Change---

I'd like to go back to June 2001 and not fall out of that chair...this back injury definitely derailed my life plan....

Also I wish I knew about the Paley center sooner...there are so many wonderful events I would have loved to attend!!!

and I'd probably like to go back to high school and just start all over... see if I can do things right the second time...but then again I might not be here with you guys and that would make me sad...

How old do you want to be when you pass on (sorry, I guess I'm feeling morbid tonight)?




I want to be about 287  ;D and healthy as a horse.... odd for someone in my job... but I fear death.. Its so final  :-\\  no one to remember after you've gone... all my stuff that I love...what's gonna happen to it? No one will love it the way It do...  :\'(

for a long time I've had a fear that I would die when I was 44 I can't explain it but its been really strong in me for so long... and now that that time is like 3 years a way I'm terrified... if I get to see 45 I will be sooooooo happpy!!!! I want to have a huge party for my 44th but I may have a bigger one for 45 if I live out the year....  :(




If you could design your gravestone, what would it look like?  (I love statues and stuff so naturally I'm a taphophile (go ahead and look it up)  lol




I don't want to be buried because the idea of rotting in the ground disturbs me.... and I have no one to visit my grave so that's just sad.....

but if I did want all that then I would want Buffy's Tombstone...  word for word.... with a Q on it at the top where they normally put a cross

You said you were trying to write movie or television scripts?  What are basic ideas that you are working on?



for me to actively be working on something I'd have to actually sit down and start writing! lol


but I have a tv movie floating around my head about an abused boy who won't speak... its busting to come out but I keep forcing it back in...

then I was sort of joking in another thread about rehashing Kate & Allie with Jenny & Emma but the more I think about it...the more I think this could be a really good idea....

my problem is I want to write something really original but all I can come up with is a rehash of old material!





What television star(s) male, female and/or cartoon  ;D  from the 70s would you like to meet in their prime?



Ohhh good question!!!!

Nancy McKeon! and the rest of the facts cast
the cast of Charlie's Angels....sans farrah I guess  :\'(  (Robert Urich would have been cool too!)
Lynne Moody..most people don't know her but she was on Soap and Lou Grant and a ton of tv movies
Val. Bertinelli
Ha Ha... no men apparently... but that's because women in TV have always been my favs!

The only cartoon characters I've ever wanted to meet are Jem & the Holograms.... I would love to write a live action version...hmmmmm





If you could have a dinner party with 10 famous people (living or dead) who would be on the guest list?  What food would you serve? 



this is an unfair question... sort of because there are two types of dinners I would want....

one would be just for fun! a couple of comedians, the creative minds behind two of my favorite shows and the cast of gilmore girls!!!

1. Rosie O'Donnell but only if she talks TV and childhood and not about politics
2. Ellen Degeneres
3. Chris Rock
4. Joss Whedon (Creator of Buffy, Angel, Firefly & Doll House)
5. Amy Sherman Palladino (Gilmore Girls creator writer)
6. Daniel Paladino (ditto)
7. Lauren Graham (lorelei gilmore....cuz lauren graham and Amy sherman are exactly like lorelei in real life)
8. Alexis Bledel (cuz Gilmore and Sisterhood)
9. Amber Tamblyn (cuz GH, Joan of Arcadia, and Sisterhood)
10. America Ferrera (cuz Ugly Betty and Sisterhood)


then there's the serious talk... the focus would be civil rights and all...  but because its me... I'd like the cast of any day now there to talk about the series versus the real deal.... so


1. Nancy Miller
2. Donzaleigh Abernathy (she played rene's mom is the daughter of a real life civil rights advocate Rev Ralph Abernathy)
3. Lorraine Toussaint
4. Annie Potts
5. Dr. King
6. Oprah
7. Whoopi
8. Maya Angelou
9. My great grandmother
10. Medgar Evers or maybe....  Sorry Patty i need 12 people... this will be like the last supper... Q and her 12 inspirerers  ;D
11. Sidney Poitier
12. Aaron McGruder....the creator of Boondocks! LOL... cuz watching him explain his dr King ep...to Dr king...now that would be a fascinating...

I totally knew you were going to do this!  :P


What is the most money you have spent on one single item?
  besides buying a car....because I made payments so that doesn't count. I spent $250 on a crew members jacket for my favorite show... Any Day Now... I never wear it tho because I'm afraid of damaging it!
oh and I dropped $1200 to attend Paley Fest this year!


How many CD's do you own? (you can guessitmate if need be)
I have about 500 cds...which is a bit ridiculous because I always listen to same 150 tracks out of 5000 on my mp3 player & ipod.


DVD's?
I don't think I'd be exaggerating if I said 1000.  I have about 700 films and a couple hundred TV shows.


If you could meet one person off of this board, who would it be & why?
  this is so unfair because I want to meet so many of you... Hopefully I get to cross two people of my list next month  ;)

But I really want to meet the people I've clicked with.... Cat, Tam, Stats, Ash, Sami, Jess, Reynolds, Bookmistress, ladybug, dag, gis... you know... all those people who made it to Philly and then some!




Are you left handed or right handed?
Right handed


What would you rather do...go camping in the woods or stay in a hotel room in a big city?
Hotel for sure and they better get good channels on the TV!



Name three places you would like to visit (It can be a city, country, state, island, etc...)
I want to go to the florida theme parks! other than that I spent too much time moving around as a kid so I hate traveling... the only other place I like to be besides home is LA!




If you were awarded 1 million dollars tomorrow, what would be the first thing you would buy?
Tax free? do I get to spend the whole million or only 500K? 
I would pay my bills.. that amounts to about 70K if you factor in student loans...
after that I need a new car
I want my parents to move from AZ to Cali so I would put a down payment on a condo for them
also get myself a condo in LA so I have some place to stay when I go to my TV events so I don't have to drive back and forth.

and I have a friend I owe a car... I've been telling her for a year that I'm going to buy her a car so I would do that.


I think I spent close to a million with that list.  ;)


Who is your role model now & who was it when you were a kid?  when I was a kid I looked up to TV characters... first it was Jill Munroe on Charlies Angels and then Christine Cagney on Cagney & Lacey.... I secretly wanted to be white and blonde...whoopi has a great routine about this in her first stand up show..... I thought I was the only one when I saw that....

now I don't really have a role model per se...I admire people who do what I wish to do but am too scared to try. I have a friend who graduated with me from UCSB and she's out there writing scripts and selling them and I admire that she had the guts to do what I keep talking about... and I admire Nancy Miller because she produces the kind of shows I would want to produce if I were doing it! That's why I was so stoked to meet her.... I love strong, independent women..... so Oprah  ;)

seriously....if you think about it there is no reason for oprah to succeed... she was born, as she says, Negro...in Mississippi... in 1955.... yet she rose above all of that and became one of the most famous, powerful, influencial women in the world...it seriously blows my mind.


What is your favorite cartoon series? as a kid I had no taste if it was on tv I would watch it no matter how much it sucked... I still do this today with some shows but not cartoons... I am very picky about my animated series....

I love Jem & the Holograms.
King of the Hill
Pepper Ann
Weekenders
As Told by Ginger
Danny Phantom

I watch these shows almost every time they are on....no matter how often I've seen the episodes.



Who is your favorite music artist from these decades: 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, 00s
  you skipped the 40's & 50's  ;)
30's/40's - Billie Holiday
50's- Buddy Holly
60's - Supremes
70's - Bob Seger.... I also love Journey both 70's and 80's Journey but i have to reserve the 80s for my other favorite....
80's - Janet Jackson - I love Janet from 80's & 90's 
90's - No surprises here.... TLC hands down.... If someone made me choose between Janet and TLC I think I'd have to pick TLC but it would hurt!
00's- Eminem... forget how you feel about the person behind the artist....the man has a gift!



Have you ever met someone in real life off of the Internet?
  yes... in '08 the Paley Center was having three events as a package deal, The Riches, Moonlight and Bones.... I wanted to go to bones so bad but all those crazy moonlight fans bought out all the packages... I ended up joining the Moonlight fan site and posed as a moonlight fan to get someone to give up bones tickets they didn't plan to use  ;D I got my tickets and met a couple of the people from the boards I had been talking too....


Are you in love?  In lust?  I have only ever been in love with one person..... myself  ;)
seriously tho... I'm not wired that way... I just don't go for that whole I luuuvvv himmmm crap.... I love bull shyt love stories but real life romance bores the crap out of me.  I admire those of you who can do it tho.. I am not patient enough to devote my life to anyone but myself...... and no I've never been in lust either.....unless my encounter with Shemar Moore counts? that's about as close to feeling lustful as I have ever been  ;)



If you had to give up sex for one year in exchange for $5000 would you do it?
  obvioulsly, based on the answer above...yes without question.... now if you asked if I could give up tV.... nope... not even for a million bucks..... not unless it was broadcast tv and I could still get my fill from online and DVDs.


Describe your idea of the perfect mate. I had her... her name was carly  :\'(


Where do you see yourself in 10 years?
I'd like to be in a house... don't care if I own it or rent it.. I'm just tired of living a cramped one room/studio apt. I want to live like an adult with a house, two bathrooms, a washer & dryer and a dishwasher... and I am tired of sharing a wall with a neighbor so it has to be a house... not an apt... 


What are your goals in life for the next 10 years? hopefully I will get off my ass and write one of the 5 scripts that are floating around my head... I don't have to write a good movie or TV show... I just want to write a popular one  ;D  it'd be nice to have both tho!

sorry forgot about the other part  ;D

Yeah its definitely interesting some of the time... mostly because people are really, really stupid!  >:(  and have no idea what constitutes an emergency.....

I always say "Your lack of planning is not my emergency!"

but its cool when you save a life.....sucks when you lose them tho... I've experienced both (the latter too many times  :\'(  )

sux too because during the fire- the sheriff recognized his deputies, officers in my department (because we helped with the evacuations and stuff), the agencies from the state that provided mutual aid....we brought in something like 300 additional police officers... and of course he thanked the fire fighters local and from all over who came to help.... but not once did he thank his dispatchers.... Those dispatchers worked their collective arses off... many of them have homes & family  in the burn area but couldn't leave to check on loved ones because they were too busy taking calls from the general public... some concerned about their properties, others angry they got evacuated, some out of area callers worried about their families....nosy nellies and of course the routine calls for service...report calls and stuff...

Always remember to thank dispatchers... they are truly the unsung heroes!

The school where Degrassi takes place does exist, been there before. I met the girl who plays Caitlin, twice. (One in a gym in the 80's, once on the street.) She's a cutie.

(I also liked the show back in the 80s)

Funny that you mention Lucy and Joey together with Caitlin, they were my 3 favorite characters on the show. I found Caitlin & Lucy both kinda cute.  I've also bumped into Snake (he's a tall guy, much over 6 feet tall) and I saw Arthur once as well.

When I met Stacy, she was kinda shy, didn't say much other than she knew I recognized her and said "hi"

Maybe Start a Degrassi thread. Hard to do a poll of fave character, too many characters to like.
I didn't like the twin red heads Erica and Heather, or Claude.

Having lived in Toronto a bit, I recognized many of the streets they used in the show (amazing how they camouflaged those igloos and 5 feet of snow on the ground..they shudda won some awards for that  :))

I get to AZ about once (maybe twice a year... ) usually I go around christmas time and occasionally I go in the spring. I never go in the summer.

The last time I was there was May 2008 oh wait... I did make it during christmas 08  (I missed christmas 07) but I only stayed three days...

I will let you know the next time I am there for longer than three days.  :)

I drive because I hate to fly. It takes about 7 hours.

you're going to ask me about getting off your ass and writing  ;D  that's like Stevie Wonder asking Ray Charles what color his suit is...  ;)


If you're serious about writing you just have to do it- early in the morning- late at night whenever you can steal a few moments for yourself....that means turning off Prince and MJ because they distract you, telling Dion to give you a couple hours space, and sitting quietly with your characters letting them speak to you.

It sucks that valuable hours you could spend writing have to spent in dialysis but hopefully you get well soon and start writing like a fiend...

Hi Snoz!

Thank you for the answer! (karma honey) And tha tjoke cracked me up. I have to use that! And thanks for the suggestion. I guess I will have to show Dion the door if I want to work. But I actually do concentrate better when I play Prince. He's the perfect background noise and I kind of zone out while I'm listening to him and can write pretty well. I have a fanfic story I've written with him and Michael (they are NOT a couple in the sroty, but feuding over a woman they both want) and when I play Prince, I write okay. I've had fans actually ask me if I know Prince and Michael, or if I AM one of them.  ;D

By the way, have you found anything from "you know who" from that Ameoba place ?  :)

Hope to hear from you soon and please ask some questions in my threads.  ;)

More questions!

(and I answered the others in my thread!)

I'm listening to Prince now, so here's a few questions about him for you:

--What's your favorite Prince video? Least Favorite?

--What's your favorite Prince hairdo? Least Favorite?

--When he lost his mind and changed his name to the Symbol, did you call him "The Artist" or just "Prince"?

--Which one of his girlfriends/ wives did you like best? (and if you say Manuela I will scream)

--If Prince and Michael started slap boxing outside your house, who do you think would get thier jaw broken first?

--Have you see the cover of the LoveSexy album and if you have, what do you make of how Prince looks on the cover?

--Prince is a vegetarian. If you had to cook a meal for him, what would you serve him?

--Prince is also a Jehovah's Witness. If he came to your door with a Watchtower pamphlet, woudl you listen to him or slam the door in his face?  (or grab him, toss him in a box and mail him to me LOL)

--Will you ask me more questons in my Anything Else thread?

Thank you! I hope that's enough questions!  ;)

(and I answered the others in my thread!)

I'm listening to Prince now, so here's a few questions about him for you:  ugh Prince questions... one of the reasons I don't ask as many questions about him is because I don't really like Prince.  but I'll play along anyway....  ;)


--What's your favorite Prince video? Least Favorite?
 favorite Video... maybe When Doves Cry because of all the scenes from Purple Rain
Least? I don't know I haven't seen that many videos.. maybe Diamonds and Pearls.


--What's your favorite Prince hairdo? Least Favorite?
I don't think Prince has worn a do I like yet... maybe the short hair is the best... least is the long, relaxed hair.


--When he lost his mind and changed his name to the Symbol, did you call him "The Artist" or just "Prince"?
 I would call him prince and then say "I'm sorry The Artist Formerly Known as Prince

--Which one of his girlfriends/ wives did you like best? (and if you say Manuela I will scream)  hmmm can't name any but apple and vanity... since vanity was in Berry Gordy's the Last Dragon I pick her!



--If Prince and Michael started slap boxing outside your house, who do you think would get thier jaw broken first?
depends on witch one I decided to bitch slap first!  ;D

--Have you see the cover of the LoveSexy album and if you have, what do you make of how Prince looks on the cover? I hadn't seen it but I have now and I wish he would eat something!

--Prince is a vegetarian. If you had to cook a meal for him, what would you serve him? steak....he needs some meat on his bones  ;D

--Prince is also a Jehovah's Witness. If he came to your door with a Watchtower pamphlet, woudl you listen to him or slam the door in his face? I'd probably do this >>>>>>(or grab him, toss him in a box and mail him to me LOL)  just for you!  ;D

--Will you ask me more questons in my Anything Else thread? Absolutely!

Right now I am taking one class called Blacks in Media its funny because the prof is in his late 50s early 60s, with a Jeremiah Wright sensibility.
And the students... who until Monday...existed in this little bubble thinking the world was one way found out something new.... I could literally see the bubble pop over each kid's head as he talked, and talked and talked... its going to be fun!


I think I'm supposed to take Intro to Ethics but I'm hoping I can replace it with something else.

I'm toying with taking another film studies course. but the profs all know me and it would feel weird being back in their classroom. I also signed up for a Video Game Research course but I don't know if I can actually take it because it conflicts with another class... I just want to know what its about.

The summer session is broken into two halves
6/22-8/1
8/3- Sept something...

anyway- I was going to take two classes this session but the prof requires sooo much reading for his class I don't think I could handle two and my job.

maybe I can take two in the next session. or three if I take something easy.  ;)

I did notice you omitted the cheese from my burger and I appreciate it...

I am really picky about food. With hamburgers it totally depends on where I am eating...

If its home or a family style restaurant (Chili's, Dennys etc) I just want the burger plain.. usually with A1 or ketchup.

McDs burgers are perfect... I open them up and pick off the pickle because I don't like pickes (especially not on my burger) but they are such small slices I enjoy eating them alone. 

Whoppers I always order no pickles, onions or tomatoes and then I open the burger and eat the lettuce then I ate the whopper with just the mayo and ketchup  ;D

people have studied my eating process because I'm like freaking Meg Ryan in When Harry Met Sally.... I special order a lot!  ;D

Where were you born?  Where did you grow up?  What did your parents do for a living while you were growing up?

I was born in Holland. My dad was in the Air Force so I lived all over

We lived in Riverside CA while my dad was in Viet Nam then when he returned we moved to

Las Vegas > Panama > Wash DC > back to Vegas

When we lived in Vegas my dad retired but my mom, who was working at Denny's as a manager, got promoted to District Manager so we moved twice because of her job
Salinas CA, Stockton CA

then I moved to Santa Barbara CA when I decided to go to college here.. and have been here ever since I LOVE IT!

After my dad retired he got a county job pushing papers... I never really asked him about what he did so i can't say more than that.
My mom left Dennys to buy into a franchise with a friend in Stockton. They owned three restaurants.... but the partnership dissolved and they stopped talking.
then she worked for a coffee business (Java City)
She tried to start her own coffee shops but she bought them in AZ.. she was supposed to open in November but got delayed and ended up opening them in July.... hard to sell coffee in the desert in July...

she ate the big one on that idea and up until last week she was working at the Progressive call center in AZ.. .now she's retired and thinking about stalking me on facebook  :-\\

my dad retired about 3 years ago... from whatever it is he did..  ;)

I don't really do favorites just because there isn't one I would listen to over all others

I love TLC, Janet Jackson, Eminem, Journey  and a bunch of others but I would be sad if I could only listen to one of these artists.

Happens all the time LOL. Simon baker said he had to leave to take care of his elderlymom then he took a pic with my friend.

But I've had it work the otherr way too.

At big love bill Pullman refused to take any pics but he rememered hanging backstage with me at a three six mafia concert so he said yes when I asked. :)

I don't mind if I miss the pic if they make an effort to get as many fans attended to as possible. I hate when they snub right up front when they know they are the only reason we came. Holly hunter could have stayed for a minute but no she ran off quick.

In the end tho it's simply about the timing. You play the odds. I've been lucky a lot so I can't complain when I miss one.

LUNCH!  ;)  seriously... my cafeteria lady had these amazing Tuna sandwiches...and these burritos that were great because they didn't have cheese. I would eat a tuna sandwich and two burritos every day... and, because she liked me and she knew how much I loved them if she ever had left overs she would call me over and give them to me... it was usually one or two more of each... there's a reason I'm as big as a house  ;D


The subject I excelled in was English. I managed to get thru four years of schooling and the only thing I ever read was page one of Grapes of Wrath and the Friends, Romans country men speech from Julius Ceaser.... I could write papers and pass all the tests based on the discussion alone.... later on I actually read some of the books and realized I was missing out on some great literature.

Most people think I don't like seafood because I never order fish... I am just in love with Steak so why get fish when you can eat meat... the truth is tho

I LOVE LOBSTER, SHRIMP and CRAB!!!!!!!

I enjoy fish...but not fish with bones... I don't like those thin fish bones if you accidentally swallow them they get stuck in the back of your throat and its hard to get over the feeling of choking without actually choking  ;)


I don't eat clam chowder but,  if I found myself at an establishment known for clam chowder, I'm sure I could find something else to eat  ;) .... sometimes... and don't tell anyone I said this... its more about the company than the food anyway.  :)

so even if I watched everyone around me eating clam chowder I would be perfectly happy watching them enjoy the soup while I drank water and ate crackers and then I'd just hit a drive thru on the way home  ;)

I'm not saying this because of Farrah- the angels have always been on my list...

so Cheryl Ladd, Jaclyn Smith, Kate Jackson... pretty much in that order.. I've met Tanya Roberts and have no desire to meet Shelly Hack.

Whoopi Goldberg
Ellen Degeneres
Queen Latifah
Sanaa Lathan (Love & Basketball)
Valerie Bertinelli
Cast of Facts of Life
the original cast of ER
and yeah I'll admit it... nut or not I'd be excited to meet Tom Cruise

and Barrack is high on my list too... he was in Santa Barbara once and I hope he comes back but he'd have to come talk on campus... its the only chance I'd have at getting close to him.

Who were your historical, political, sports or entertainment industry hero's grwoing up?



historical? when I first read about Harriet Tubman & then later MArtin Luther King I was moved.... I still didn't quite understand because I was in fourth grade... to me slavery may has well have happened in the 1400s I just didn't really understand that the civil war had ended just 110 years prior.

And with the Civil Rights movement it always seemed like decades ago... like it was the early 1900s I mean I saw the dates and everything but I wasn't thinking... hey its 1976 and MLK marched on Washington in 1963 that's only 15years ago.... it wasn't until I was in college that I really started doing the math and discovered how lucky I was to be born when I was...


sports? I've never been big on sports idolization... I watched Boxing because my father did and he loved Ali but I never really understood why... I was a sugar ray leonard fan cuz he was cute...  ::)

yeah I just don't have any sports idols...


entertainment? Pretty much if they were on TV I totally idolized them... I had big time hero worship for the action ladies... Wonder Woman, Bionic Woman, Cleopatra Jones (the Tamra Dobson movie) if the lady could kick ass I was all over it... I guess I never bought into that whole women must be submissive flowers bull shyt!  ;D

BACKSTAGE!!! at a three six mafia concert.... he was dancing and head bopping and when he saw me he pointed enthusiastically and yelled to me... I VOTED FOR THESE GUYS TO WIN THE OSCAR!!!!!  ;D  oddly he had his 14 yr old son and some of his sons buddies with him.... that seemed a little ill advised considering the nature of three six mafia music but you know.... who am I to judge.... I would have been listening to three six mafia as a teen but not with my parents... so good for them for keeping the lines of communication open.


BTW I wasn't supposed to be backstage but since my officers were working the concert and the people manning the gates were the student employees who work for us I just sort of walked back there and no one questioned it.... mostly because the students are a little afraid of me and the cops didn't care because they know I like rap music.... the crowd was insane tho... no way I was going to be in the audience with 1000 college kids.

I think of myself as more of an ostrich I do a lot of burying my head in the sand... ass up when the walls start crumbling around me...
my friends call me a rabbit tho because it seems I get lucky at the last minute a lot... my luck seems to be running out tho....


favorite cereal?  Sugar cereals!
Peanut butter crunch
Apple Jacks....tho I'm made they changed them! who needs all those colors  >:(
Alpha bits.... tho apparently they've taken out the sugar  >:(
Count Chocula! mmmmmmm
and Frosted mini wheats... the red box, not the yellow... those bite sized ones just don't cut it...

but I had to stop eating cereal because I can actually eat an entire box in one sitting.




If I had a pool of my own I would use it but I have a weird kind of anti-fetish about being in water with other people... it makes my skin crawl... I don't do hot tubs and I don't do pools... some of it has to do with that whole I hate feet thing and I would totally freak out if someone touched me with their foot... but the other part of it is that whole skin cell transference thing... I know there's enough chlorine in the water to kill stuff but I cant get past the image.... I don't take baths either.


2% milk... always...


Why on earth would you ask me such a horrible question? Why would I live anywhere but cali?  ;)
of all the places I've lived this is the only one that's felt like home...

but If I had to be anywhere else I suppose it would have to be Hawaii because its still the US, you have the ocean and the weather is decent... I don't do extreme heat or extreme cold.

I lived in Washington DC when I was 3 for a couple months and again when I was in 4th grade (for almost a year).

I visited my grandmother when I was in the 2nd grade in Maryland.

In 1994 I went somewhere like DC for training (it was DC or Baltimore) we didn't get out too much tho...

then I went again in 1995.... this time we spent a week on a Mennonite Campus in the back woods of Maryland. the county was dry... my friends and I were not. There was one liquor store that stayed open until sundown... and one bar.... pretty much no one in there had all their teeth. it was funny because two of the girls I was with were just a couple years out of college and looked like your stereotypical college girls.. we all got drunk and the girls were dancing together...guess that didn't happen a lot there but it's common enough in Cali...anyway my "slutty" friends (honest they weren't slutty at all...just 'free' ) were the most popular attraction that night.

it was a scary, scary town to alone in after dark tho... I didn't like it.

How many hours of TV  do you watch a day? Some would say too many... I would say not enough... the truth is I watch maybe 8 to 12 hours a day... I think...Its seems I record 4-9 shows a day and I watch even more tv than what I record. The TV is one virtually every moment I am home. some things I pay more attention to than others. and I watch considerably less TV in the summer. But I watch a ton of DVDS.

and the TV is on when I sleep... I cannot sleep without it.


What's your
favorite commercial?  hmmmm I've always been partial to the life cereal commercial. I started reciting it the minute I read the question... I also remember the original Got Milk Commercials  they were really creative... and this one is the best...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=plmFkZHjt6Y


Do you have an intolerance for intolerant people?  Absolutely... its probably my biggest flaw because it makes me a total hypocrite but since my intolerance is about people being sooo narrow minded I figure that at least I'm still on the right side of the hypocrisy.... I am for equal rights for everyone except for those who don't believe in equality  ;D  I hope that makes sense  :)


Can you solve a Rubic Cube without taking the stickers off? Yes... but not without disconnecting all the individual cubes and reassembling them....  ;D

I still have my original one. it has never been solved. I once got four sides figured out but then lost them trying to work out the other two... I can get two sides fairly consistently tho...  8)


Do you have any favorite historical people? hmmmm helen keller? harriet tubman? I'm not really all that political... I like everyday people who find braveness in the face of adversity because I know I do not have the strength to do it...  you know if I were Helen Keller I would have lived my life sitting in a corner rocking back and forth or something...

if I were Harriet Tubman once I made that first trip north I sure as shyt would not go back for more..... plus... not to make light of it or anything but walking and sleeping outdoors.... I just don't do that.... people ask me why I don't like camping.. I always say my ancestors endured enough of it running from slavery so I wouldn't have to ever experience that again....yeah at least one of my ancestors was a runaway slave...


What's your favorite place on earth?  In front of my TV... sad but true.....the happiest days are the ones where I have responsibility to know one... where I can curl up all comfy with a dew and a bag of BBQ lays and be all fat and disgusting and just watch my favorite shows.....hour, after hour, after hour....

or LA...

What's your favorite show for the "Golden Age of TV"?

Have you ever had a panic attack right before meeting someone famous?  I mean to the point of almost bolting.

  Yeah I thought so too!  :)

http://What's your favorite show for the "Golden Age of TV"?

wow...the golden age? depends on who you talk to right.... for me I consider the golden age of tV the 50s - mid 60s

its simple.... Honeymooners hands down, no one comes close to having the timing of that group...especially since they did it live!
I also love Leave it to Beaver and Donna Reed... I can watch these shows over, and over and over and laugh like its the first time I ever saw the episode.


if you wanna talk the 70s then the Mary Tyler Moore show is one of the greatest comedies of all time  :)
but as you know I hold a very special place in my heart for Charlies angels, Vegas, Bionic Woman which needs to come to DVD and Wonder Woman....which I have yet to get on DVD.


if you're talking OUR golden age.... the 80s? The best show of the 80s was Cagney and Lacey but I loved the comedies too... so Designing Women is a very close second... 



Have you ever had a panic attack right before meeting someone famous?  I mean to the point of almost bolting.


never to the point of bolting but I have been reduced to a lump of stammering, gibberish speaking goo......

my meet with Jodie Foster went something like this...

me follow Jodie after an event....not cuz I was stalking her but because we actually parked in the same parking lot.... I got the courage to say her name and she stopped.... I said ... um, uh.. humina humina humina .... me you like kid growning up. 

seriously... she looked at me totally confused and said... thank you I think.... yeah...that was excellent  ::)



What's your favorite kind of ethnic food?  (I know preferably from a place that delivers so you don't have to miss less than 3 minutes of TV.)


ha ha... I love chinese food....tho I a percentage of Chinese in my heritage so I guess its not ethnic... Thai? wait I have indonesian too...

um.... Spaghetti..... yeah that's it!  I love spaghetti.

What's your favorite season in the year? Fall....because, theoretically that's when the new tv season starts... but really I like spring the weather is perfect in the spring.

What's the best thing you like about California? proximity to the ocean.... I never go but I like knowing its right there.... I live about 5 or 6 miles from it... I have a great view driving to work because I get two post card shots of it on my drive....


here's a pic of one of the views I get to see every time I drive into town

http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa235/snozberries44/Santa%20Barbara/santabarbara-1.jpg


The worst thing?

cost of living... its so freaking expensive....  and traffic....california would be perfect if the only people who lived were the people who worked in the industry... a few of the service people I need to get stuff done... .and all my friends... everyone else should move to AZ or Montana or something  ;D



Is you could build a time machine and go back in a specific  period of time and place, what time period?


hmmmm I'm not the historical person Kathie is so I don't know that there's any one moment I would go back to... plus... history? not so kind to those like me so how much fun would it be to go back? Maybe if I could go back and enact some changes I might want to do that.... maybe I just want to go to florida and fix those damn voting machines! Imagine the last 8 years if Gore had been president  ;)

For me personally?  I actually think about it a lot. There was a lot of time wasted in my life... If I could go back to the time my mom had the option of moving to Stockton or San Diego... maybe things would be different if she chose San Diego...but then I would have missed out on knowing a lot of great people....

I could go back to high school and actually apply myself get to college earlier and do something with my life but same issue as above...the choices I made, the life I lived... I have come through it with some really strong friends....

in the end there are only two things I would actually change (well three if you count being more responsible with money- from the beginning)

1) would go back to 2001 - I feel out of a chair at work and injured my back.. if I could have that instant back and fall differently or not fall at all the life I live now would be very different....

2) if I could just go back to 2007 and take Carly to another vet she might still be with me today.... I would give all I have for that moment back... honest!  :\'(

The Year Without Santa Claus.


Actually the fires are a recent anomaly.  I moved to Santa Barbara in Sept 1996 and I don't recall any major fires in the area from 96 until July 2007. 
There were three big ones at the same time:  2 SB & 1 LA county in 07.
And then 2 fires at the same time in SB & LA fall of 08
and then this most recent fire...

prior to that the last big fire in Santa Barbara was in 1990.  And.... the majority (if not all) of these fires were started by humans being stupid. 

someone set off fireworks in a dead field.
Some kid played with matches
some drunk college students didn't properly extinguish their bon fire
some guy used a power tool that created a spark and ignited nearby brush....

why do people live in hurricane and tornado prone areas? Because they can't move or because they don't want to.... I LOVE Santa Barbara so I take the good with the bad...

I'm supposed to be getting ready for work! oh well....

Favorite Mini series... um... there was one done in the 80s called Celebrity about a mystery surrounding three famous guys who are connected to a death/coverup back when they were 17 or so.

that... or Chiefs (based on the Stuart Woods books)



I've never timed myself chugging dew but I can slam a can in about 30 seconds...maybe 45
I have had a two liter in one sitting and, I once went to a party and since my cravings for alcohol are so strong I brought a cube of dew with me... I drank 16 cans in 4 hours  8)  (that may have something to do with why I'm fat!)  ;)


CA/budget? God I hope so... I feel bad for the state employees dealing with lay offs and furloughs... and now I may be taking an 8% paycut as well  >:(


I haven't seen much live theater.... but what I have seen I have enjoyed. I saw a production at a community college of Gypsy. I have a friend who's an actress (not a famous one) and she was doing a play in the bay area so I saw that. I have not seen any big plays or productions (but Cali is about as far off broadway as you can get!)  ;)  They do productions in LA and I always say I'm going to go but I never seem to make it.


No I've never been to PA. Wish I could have gone for the mini-meet tho.


and I don't like to fly.. .I used to love it as a kid but now... you'll be pretty hard pressed to get me on a plane... between the whole flying thing and having to take  your shoes off at the security check points... I may never fly again.

hmm besides Kevin and Winnie's kiss and Kevin watching Winnie sleep after her acco.

How about the moment Kevin tries to get popular by making fun of Paul

My favorite episode is the one with the radical teacher who is fired for being unconventional.

Also the one where Kevin can't do math and he's tutored by his math teacher but on the day of the test Kevin thinks his teacher abandoned him but really he died...

How about when Wart comes back after being in Viet Nam? WOW that was a good ep and one of the few times Wayne was likable...

There are so many good moments...

"The one where Kevin can't do math and he's tutored by his math teacher but on the day of the test Kevin thinks his teacher abandoned him but really he died...". That one was fab.

"How about the moment Kevin tries to get popular by making fun of Paul" and Winnie and others. Good one! too

The first kiss episode I like.  The episode where Kevin tried to call Lisa Berlini. Oh, and the Valentines episode where Kevin's card for Winnie gets in (evil) Becky's locker.

And the Eddie Pinetti (the bully guy) episode too.  And the episode when Winnie's parents break up, and also when they get back together during the play "Our town"
I could go on and on, so many wonderful episodes.

I would be something totally fierce and devastating... I think I'd be the Tasmanian Devil... are those like real things? hmmm

I like Secret Gel. Preferably not too flowery... I tend to go for the powder fresh, lavender or tropical.

Interesting... I dont tie my shoes too often because I just step out of them and then step back in...but when they need tightening I believe I start with the left.... mostly because its further away and requires more effort in the bending area!  ;)

you answered the question yourself... it was good.... typically- any show that is good and fresh gets canceled.  See- Pushing Daisies, My so Called Life, The nine, firefly etc....

Its unfortuante but apparently the networks are afraid that if they give us good tv we will raise our standards and stop watching the crap the keep feeding us year after year.

That's okay --- I don't wanna go back and found out either.  :)


Who do you "take" more after, your mom or your dad? 

I'm more like my dad. We have the same lame, warped sense of humor.
He has thousands of CDs I have a thousand DVDs
My dad could do nothing but listen to music all day long... I could (and do watch TV) all day long.

I did get my mother's impatience tho.



Do you like painted walls, wallpaper, wood panelling, brick walls?  (yeah I'm bored and was watching home improvement shows recently)  :P


Love decorating shows- been watching a lot of Sarah Richardson lately myself (Design Inc, Room Service)

I detest wall paper. I like wood and brick but I also like to hang a lot of pictures so wall type doesn't mean that much to me... if I had a house of my own I'd probably just have painted walls.....cafe ole  or sage.


Do you like the ocean?


I love the ocean. I never go to it... but I love looking at it everyday. I went to LA the other day and instead of going the normal way I drove down the coast thru malibu- I haven't driven that way in about 7 years.... because it takes 30 minutes longer.....but it was so beautiful I didn't care.

If I ever win the lotto I'm gonna have two houses.  one in LA and one in SB and one of those houses will have an ocean view.



What is your most favorite "alone" place to go (if you needed some time to think or whatnot)?


I spend most of my time alone so I don't really have a need for an alone place. Sometimes I will go outside and sit on my door step and enjoy the dark... I love the nighttime- the darkness, the stars, the night air. 



What is the best birthday gift you've ever gotten?  What is the best birthday gift you've ever given?


I never really thought about it. I don't usually get the kind of gifts that are memorable. I get a lot of DVDs which I love but I don't say-- that's the one from this birthday or that's from that....

I can only think of two special B-Day gifts I've gotten--- I got the first nintendo game system on my 21st b-day that was awesome

and on my 26th b-day my parents were away on  a cruise but before they left they got me a ticket to watch the Sacramento Kings play the Detroit Pistons.  Those are my two favorite teams and they played in Sacramento on my birthday so I was ecstatic!  Pistons won and I was happy! I would have been happy either way but at the time I liked the Pistons more than Kings...now its the other way around.


Do you wear a watch?  Any other jewelry? 


very rarely. I used to wear one all the time but with a cell phone I find little use for a watch now. 
and no I don't wear jewelry I might wear a necklace like once a year.


Why is 44 your favorite number?


When I first started at UCSB as a student- I got a job working campus security. They gave me the body number 44. I thought it was a good fit (prior to that I was in love with the number 33 because it was the number on the jersey Tom Cruise wore in All the Right Moves....I was also in  love with the colors black and yellow  8) )

Anyway--- I started to identify myself as Q 44  one day I was doodling during a boring lecture and I took my initials and assigned them a numeric value...ala Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation 1814 (R=18, N=14)  so if (A=1 and Z=26) what do TQG equal?

T =  20
Q = 17
G =  7

20+17= 37 + 7= 44  after that revelation I knew it was my destiny  ;)




What is your favorite ride at Disney? 


Space Mountain. It combines my two favorite things...Roller Coasters and Darkness.  :)


If you had to change your name to something else, what would it be?


For an entire summer when I was 12 I insisted everyone call me Jill.  (as in Munroe from Chuck's Chicks) but now I think I'd just want people to call me Angel cuz its soooooooo far from what I truly am  ;D

Which celebs do you wish you could've met when they were alive? (If you only wanna name one or two, that's fine as well. I'm just curious.)

Hi, have we met? ask me for a question and I'll answer it no matter how long the list may be  ;D

Rebecca Schaffer
Rosalind Cash
Farrah Fawcett
Robert Urich (actually I met him when I was 13 but I was too stupid to realize how cool that really was and would've like to have had a talk with him as an adult)
Andy Hallett (he played Lorne on Angel)
Glenn Quinn (from Roseanne & Angel)
Nancy Walker... .I really want to talk to her about Can't Stop the Music!
Lisa "Left-Eye" Lopez  :\'(
Bernie Mac.... I had a ticket to go see the taping of his last pilot (which I hear was pretty funny) but I was lazy and didn't go... had I known he was going to die a couple months later I would've gone!
Wendy Jo Sperber

I'm sure there are more but that's all I can think of now.

It sounds like you're talking about OLTL... I watched it for a brief time in the 80's... one episode that stands out, I'm thinking probably 1987-1988-ish.  The characters went to a daytime TV emmy awards show, I don't remember why but I remember the jingle they were singing at the show within the show.  ;D

and no worries even if it's been asked I'm usually happy to answer again!!! we are, after all talking about one of my favorite subjects!!!  ;)  ;D




Are you right handed or left-handed?

Right!

Saving your change history question for a separate post because knowing me it's going to be long...  ;D


If you were to write a book (or series of books) what would they be about?


Death, murder, mayhem and the woman who kicks ass righting all the world's wrongs... there's a reason why I like cagney & Lacey, The Closer, Medium, Dollhouse, and Buffy of course... I've always been drawn to strong female leads!



Favorite zoo animal?


Honestly I haven't been to the zoo since 4th grade...somewhere along the way I started feeling really sorry for the animals and I just couldn't handle the emotions I felt... but I do remember loving the panda they had at the Washington DC zoo so I say panda....tho the tiger is probably, actually my favorite zoo animal.... 



Favorite farm animal?


I'm terrified of horses... well not terrified... I used to love them but then I got bit and then I got bucked...and then one tried to throw me but I wouldn't let go.. I have had three experiences with horses all of them bad... I like baby farm animals.. Funny since I hate kids right?  ;D 
Baby cow... no wait... baby pig.... yeah... I like baby pigs!




Favorite item that you kept (or maybe just wish you had) from childhood?


oh wow... um... I have this stuffed animal that was given to me when I was seven. I was deathly sick - they never figured out (or my mom never told me) what I had but I had fever for a week and it was scary. I got this rabbit that I still have



Favorite perfume or scent?


I don't wear perfume but I like powder... Chanel has a powder that smells good but I'm a sucker for J&J's old skool.... WHAT!?!?  but my all time favorite scent? Food cooking... That's bread baking, cookies, pork... and most definitely the smelll of a good steak on the grill sets my world upside down!!!



Favorite yogurt flavor (if you can stand it  lol)?


Love yogurt but for the longest time I would only eat strawberry or strawbry/bananana... I hate peach and blue berry and stuff... well yoplait recently came out with the best combo I've ever tasted.... Cherry and pomegranate!  OMG that's some good shyt!!!


Favorite Star Trek episode?


TRIBBLES!!!!!  I will admit I'm not really a trekkie so I've only seen half the eps but I've seen enough...



Favorite name from a baby name book?


I'm cheating here... my favorite name didn't come from a book... well I didn't see it there.... It's Sanaa. As in Sanaa Lathan who was in Love & Basketball... from the first time I saw her name I was in love with it!



Favorite constellation?


I tend to choose the one I can identify without help...besides the dippers it's Orion's Belt.  I learned about it from a movie or maybe it was a TV show... I can never remember....

I also learned about Casiopia from The Sure Thing but I can't identify it on my own...
and I learned that the seven sisters is the "Fuzzy Clump"  (got that from Mystic Pizza) but I just look at it go "Fuzzy Clump!"  ;D



Favorite star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame?

Hmmm haven't seen them all yet... One of my favorite memories of a star on the walk of fame happened circa 1995.  I drove from Stockton to LA- it was my first weekend in LA alone ever and I Was excited. I'd come for a General Hospital weekend. On the night I got there I drove around Hollywood BLVD and eventually parked and walked... as I walked back to my car I looked down and realized I  had stopped right next to Anna Lee's star... Anna Lee played Lila Quartermaine... I didn't even know she had a star... I thought it was a good omen for the start of my weekend and I was right... it was my first celebrity stalker activity and I've been hooked ever since!  ;D


Favorite hand/foot prints at Grumann's Chinese Theatre?


hmmm I should have an answer for this but I don't.... when I've gone there I didn't want to be one of those dorky tourist who put their hands and feet in the prints so I just sort of walk over them.. I have glanced at them but never actually stopped to look at them...
weird right?  :-\\

If you could change three events in history (both globally that would affect more then yourself AND change something that would affect just you and/or a small group of friend(s))...What would those events be?

okay I think i can answer this now....



The three global events that I would change would be:

1) I would have find some way for Hitler to die before he could go to Germany.

2) I would've given MLK a free nights stay in any other hotel in Memphis besides the Lorraine Hotel...

3) is a toughie.... I think I'd take the camera away from DW Griffith...It could possibly change cinema forever and not necessarily for the better but the idea of a universe without Birth of a Nation makes me happy.

I know I should be all noble and shyt and be like not only am I stopping the holocaust but I'm obliterating slavery too... I hate that slavery happened. I would stop it if I could have stopped it but- I also- this is shameful but I'll say it... I like my life and if not for slavery I wouldn't be here so you know... I'm selfish like that!  :P


kay... my life rewritten?

This is hard because I think of what has happened to me because of the decisions made and I always think what if... it goes like this...

What if my mom took the job that relocated her to San Diego instead of Stockton?  I met two of my closest friends in Stockton... sure one is gone but the other is still with me... plus a third friend whp's been very open about giving me a place to stay when I 'm LA!  ;D 

What if I had worked harder in High school... sort of the same scenario as the first... I wouldn't have ended up working where I worked so I wouldn't have met who I'd met....

What if I ended up getting into UCLA instead of UCSB... I wouldn't have made the connections I have here. I have some really good contacts and a good friend at UCSB film studies....they love me there... I don't know that I wouldn't have been swallowed up by UCLA...

and if I hadn't come to UCSB I never would've had Carly... honestly- as great as my life could have been if I had I gone to UCLA I think having Carly is the single best thing to ever happen to me...

If I could change one thing I would have figured out carly's illness sooner and I would've gone to a different vet....

If I could change one other thing... I would have been better with money... I keep throwing it away on things.. I know better but I still do it... If I had saved I would not be ducking phone calls now from bill collectors and crap...

and the third thing I would change? If I could go back and not fall out of that chair, injuring my back, I would not fall out the chair... that back injury ruined me.... but maybe- just maybe--- I might only change the fact that I let that lawyer (my lawyer) bully me into signing the settlement because I was totally high ( on pain meds) and not aware of what I was agreeing to.  primarily I would change the money rather than the incident because it was because of the back injury that I got Carly... I was home on medical leave and my friend thought we'd be good for each other....  yeah.... that's it!


Or maybe I'd just rig something up where I win the lotto... and then a select few of my friends... those in need (you know who you are) win too!  Different jackpots of course cuz I wouldn't want to share!!!  ;)

and everyone I really, really like would, after winning their lotto jackpot,  would decide that LA is amazing and they'd move there and we'd all hang out and go to paleyfest together!  It's good to dream right?

1. Did you watch my two all-time favorite shows, 21 Jumpstreet and Candid Camera?


2. Would you want to be a paparazzi, and get paid to see celebrities?


3. Did you write fan letters to celebrities when you were a kid (or as an adult)?


4. Did you ever own a pogo stick?

I loved 21 jumpstreet. That's when I loved Johnny depp then he went and got all weird and stuff. (taking weird roles i mean )

I love the classic candid camera. When I was a kid I was always looking out for Alan fundt.


I DETEST the paparazzi. All they want is to try and catch celebs at a bad time. They have no respect for their privacy, their works or for them as people.
I wouldn't mind being a red carpet photographer only but all those people often freelance between events.

I didn't write fan letters as a kid. I've written a coupler of thank you letters as an adult but that's been to writers and producers not celebs.

I think I'm one of the few that doesn't detest them... although there are definitely some that go overboard.  As long as they are targeting the actual celebrities, and doing so legally, I don't see a problem, it's when they target the celebrity's family or others who didn't choose to be in the limelight (like the guy who found Caylee Anthony's body or Joe the Plumber or "Sully" Sullenberger) that I get irritated.

The way I see it, the celebrities choose to be in the public spotlight and there's no such thing as being in the public spotlight, but only on good days.  If they no longer want to be in the limelight, they can always live and work like we do and nobody will bother them! :)

honestly, it's a visceral reaction with me... if it has the name cheese in it I react to it.  But that's not why I don't like cheese cake...
My mom had this business partner who had us over for dinner every friday. Every friday his dessert was a different type of cheese cake... I had never had cheese cake before and didn't want to eat it because the name turned me off.. I knew it wasn't cheese but it just didn't sound appetizing to me. My mom made me eat because she didn't want to offend him, not only was it way too sweet for me it was topped with blueberries (I hate blueberries) I know- I'm a pain...  anyway the next week I didn't want his stupid cheesecake (this was was topped with raspberries---- see my blueberry comment  ;D ) for over a year I was forced to eat cheese cake on a weekly basis and I'm telling I gagged on the stuff. I tried hiding it in napkins. Clearing the table so I could toss it in the trash... I hate the stuff...  and vowed that I would never eat it again... and I haven't  ;D

Nikki.  She was in my class every year from 2nd grade to 6th, I think.  I haven't even seen that show, I didn't know she had been on it until well after the fact.  Now I wish they would release it on DVD!

Another little anecdote... a good friend of our family, Carleen, played the coffee shop waitress on Indecent Proposal.  Way back when, my mom and dad both showed up to help her move... and that's how my parents met.  :D

You can always will your stuff to whomever you like. From what I gathered, you have enough stuff to start your own museum. What you could do is will your autograph photos to the TV Museum, or your Buffy collection to the Buffy Museum (if there is such a thing), etc.

I know I just figure most of the friends I have either have the same stuff or are older and wouldn't have much use for it (if they were still around) I thought about my friends with kids- the kids would have no idea what the stuff meant... plus- I don't really have anyone to come sort thru my stuff after so I think it'll all just get thrown away by whomever gets that daunting task... okay this is a depressing topic I don't want to talk about it anymore.  :-\\

Do you hand out candy to all the little trick-or-treaters on Halloween?


when I was a kid I used to but I don't anymore... there's a couple of reasons for that.

1) the way my apartment is situated no one really knows I live here. The driveway is shared by 4 houses, my landlord's door faces the driveway. my entrance is on the side of the house so you'd have to know I was here to look for my door. I always have to put special instructions on my UPS and FED EX deliveries otherwise all my stuff winds up on my landlord's doorstep.


But number one is a moot point because I haven't been off on Halloween in 12 years.

Halloween is a major event here (google Isla Vista Halloween)  we have over 200 officers working when it lands on a weekend and 100 working on weeknights... the whole week is blocked so no time off is granted.

We have to staff dispatch with extra dispatchers and I usually pull 16hr shifts so on Halloween I'm either at work or asleep because I just got off a long shift.  ;D

The Color Purple.... it was a special crayon made by the Crayola heir for Oprah... I totally want that crayon!

I  would do the Red Carpet of the emmys but I'd have to record the emmys at home so I'd still get to watch the ceremony the way I like to...


I prefer my friends call me Q.  If you don't call me Q I prefer Tq... I have one co-worker who calls me T (even tho I sign all my emails Q) it bugs the hell out of me! 

I never really thought about the family photo thing... I don't really have a favorite that I can think of off the top of my head... I'll look at them and get back to you...

I'm totally a straw person when it comes to drinking from a glass at a restaurant or getting a drink from a fast food place....
I'm sans straws at home....

I love bendy straws....when I have a straight straw I often put a bend into it...

as a kid I loved those super curly straws. It was fun watching the liquid travel from my cup up..... but now I just think they must be a breeding ground of germs I mean how does one thouroughly clean a straw like that?    I may just be the only slob on the planet who is also a germaphobe.... basically my mess no problem but the potential for germs elsewhere.....yeah I'm pretty picky.  ;D


oh and clear straws but if I'm presented with color options I always go blue.... unless black is available.

I haven't tried the cookie straw but I might one day....depending on what flavor cookie it is... I'm hoping shortbread/sugar cookie....

I would love to work in casting. I think I have a good idea of who'd be good for what role... plus, if I had anything to do with it Kristen Stewart would not be acting  ;D  

I wouldn't want to be a talent agent just because I don't think I'd have the patience to properly "handle" the celebs...

and I wouldn't want to be paparazzi because as much as I don't want to cater to celebs - I also don't want to be a part of exploiting them.

I don't have a normal lunch I eat whereever the officers eat. It could be Chinese, subway, a different sandwich place I really like, sushi, chili's or L&L Hawaiian BBQ.
Or mcd's wendys or jack cracks.

If I could I would only eat at the sandwich shop ( they have a tri tip sandwich that kills!!!)
Well I would eat there and at my favorite sushi joint. But they are pretty expensive so I can't afford to eat there daily.

A beef tri-tip roast is a boneless cut of meat from the bottom sirloin. It also is called "triangular" roast because of its shape.



There are two (well I guess three ways to serve a tri tip sandwich) 

Tri tip is generally grilled.  You can eat it sliced... in cali its typically served with beans and rice and a tortilla...

in sandwich form it's usually put on a french or italian roll.  Then it's topped with BBQ sauce or salsa...

My favorite tri tip sandwich (which is no longer being served) was served on a french roll that had a garlic butter spread - it was then toasted on the grill and came out like garlic bread.. .the tri tip was piled on and then the best BBQ sauce was poured over it...  (horse radish was another alternative but I don't eat it)

My second favorite uses an italian roll. they spread a chipotle mayo and put salsa on top of the tri tip... I love it. and because it is still avail it's now my fave.

my third fave is like number one (and still offered) but they don't the garlic spread so it's not as good as number one...


my fourth fave is considered the best tri tip in Santa barbara but I think it's just okay.. its served on some kind of round roll with bbq.... but I don't the bbq is that great... I think if the people who call it the best had one of the two sandwiches above they would change their minds...

I'm currently on a quest for the best tri tip in Santa barbara and La... I eat it where ever I go and keep rankings in my iphone... trust me if I find any better I will let you know...

anyone who wants to come to Santa Barbara and try one I'd be happy to hang with you!!!!  8)

I think I'd like to get a shot at that new show Million dollar Drop off....

I'd like to test my wits on are you smarter than a fifth grader

and I'd like to try something like who wants to be a millionaire (but before they put in the time limit)



If I were to win something first and foremost I'd love to win cash!!! second would be electronics.  When I was at Make a Deal there were a few prize packages I would've loved and a few I hated.... I don't want to win a trip anywhere because I don't enjoy traveling but if I did win a trip I''d give it to my mother as a gift so that wouldn't totally suck... I don't want to win furniture because it's usually ugly and I don't have room for it...  I would've loved to have won a washer a dryer (they gave featured as a prize at LMAD) I don't really have a place for one but I'd make it work...


As for hosts. I like Wayne Brady. I love Meredith Viera. I like Wink Martindale.

It looks like they are walking or standing on the floor but that's just an illusion... they are actually floating. It requires amazing core muscle strength to do so but once you're a ghost it's not really that much of an issue  ;D

Well, considering the Zodiac Killer commited the bulk of his crimes in the Bay Area and is only presumed to be responsible for a homicide in Riverside (which is an hour or so away from LA) I'd say LAPD is about as instrumental to solving the Zodiac Killer case as they were in solving the Son of Sam and the Boston Strangler cases  ;)

Well they were going ot make the pizzas square and put them in a round box but they found round things fit better into square holes than square things into round holes....

also...they did try to put the pizza in round boxes but they found it left little to no room for the diner to put their hand in the box and get a piece.... people who eat pizza are inheriently lazy (and probably high) so it's important not to make them work to hard...otherwise they won't comeback and order more....

If  you're asking if the trip was twice as long at both speeds then the answer would remain the same....if you drive at 30mph or 60mph for the same distance then you'll burn approximately the same rate of fuel.... however if you're asking if you drive the vehicle for twice as long at 30mph then you would at 60mph then you burn less fuel at 60mph because you'd get where you're going faster.......

UC Berkley & UC Santa Barbara have the highest cost of living.
If you rank the UC Dispatch wages Berkely is #1 or #2 on the list

Howard if I let that stuff stress me out I wouldn't have lasted in the job for 13yrs.

It sounds callus but you really have to adopt an 'It sux to be you' or 'Better you than me' attitude.
As long as I do the best job I can i don't worry about the outcome. People die. It sux but it's true.
It's only hard when you're dealing with someone you know. I could care less about people I don't know (meaning I will provide them the best service possible but I'm not emotionally invested in the outcome) but with people I know it's different. It's harder to separate from that.

As a kid I played with barbies all the time. Not in the girlie way but in the way a tv addict reenacts her favorite shows.  ;) ;D
If I wasn't using my barbies to reenact tv shows I was using them to pay out new scenarios I created. I think vie always wanted to be a tv producer I just didn't realize it until my 30s.

The collecting of barbies is different tho. I may have mentioned this before but I've always been a slob. I hate cleaning my house as much as I hated cleaning my room. When I was a kid my mom threatened to throw all my toys away if I didn't clean my room.  I didn't and she did.  :-\\

She threw away everything. I was severely traumatized.  Part of the problem is we moved so much when I was a kid that I tied up my whole identity and that feeling of "home" that- I suppose kids who stay in one place have- to my stuff.  If my mom could just so callously throw my stuff away could she throw me away. And even more 'who am I with the things that identify me' I cannot explain to you the damage that incident. Blame me for not cleaning but seriously it's the reason my things are more important to me than people. It's why I'm constantly obsessed with what will happen to my "stuff" when I die.  Anyway I started collecting barbies as way to repair that hoe. To get back the stuff that was stripped away from when I was a powerless kid. ....It didn't really work that way but it helped a little.

Is this the month that had Easter or was that last month?  Let's say in the last 30days  ;)

a high school friend - wait. A person I knew in high school (we weren't really friends then) who I  reconnected with at a mini reunion sent me this box of tv trivia cards.  It was just something she found at the dollar store nothing big but it meant she saw them thought of me and found it important enough to send to me.  I wish I more like that.  I think of people all the time but I never take tbe time to show them that I do.

Do you like walking uphill or downhill best?




I'm rather lazy so if I have to walk a hill I'd rather go downhill because it requires less effort.  ;)



Do you like to swim?




This is a little known fact about me but I do like to swim.  (yes I wear shoes in the pool)
But. I hate the idea of all those people in water at the same time. There's no amount of chlorine in the world that will make that okay. When I was in PT for my back injury they made me do pool therapy. It was the best but the most stressful for me. The therapist scheduled me an hour before the pool opened so we were the only two in the pool and she wore swimming shoes.  (I don't go to pools or crowed beaches because .....well....you know why.  So it was kind of her to do it.

My dream home will have a pool so that I may start swimming agaiN....ALONE.  :D


And, for the record, I detest hot tubs and bath tubs  8-P

I will answer these next time I get up and sit at my computer. Effie is passed out across my legs while im laying on my couch and I don't want to disturb her.



Do you like to grocery shop?




It's not a matter of liking or disliking grocery shopping. I like eating so I don't mind shopping. What I suck at is meal planning and stockpiling I'll get the supplies for spaghetti but forget a main I gradient so I have to go to the store again. Because of the way I shop I probably visit grocery store 3 or 4 times a week. But I dont mind. I do however hate getting a craving late at night or being on my days off not wanting to leave my house and finding out I have to hit the grocery store because I screwed up and don't have what I want/need in the house.


 
Did you wear makeup as a teen or play in it as a young child?



Never. I have worn make up once that was about 10 or 12 yrs ago when I was interviewed for a campus program about a Melrose Place art project/auction I was a part of. (I worked the auction not the art). I hated it. The make up and interview not the project that proje t was awesome.

Designers Lee Owen and Doug Cox decided to design the Bosch to address the issues that front loading and top-loading machines have. This washer and dryer concept has a spherical drum that allows the clothes to be washed in all directions, thus provides maximum cleaning of your clothes. Washing with the Bosch 360 is easier on your back because its door is placed at 45-degree angle and the control panel of digital touch screen technology is place on the door. Aside from its amazing performance, the Bosch 360 also has an eye-catching design making it a perfect home décor if not in use.

IF you really do look into buying a washer/dryer combo you need to check if it can dry the same weight load as it can wash.  I know there are some brands that can only dry half the weight of the washload so you still don't get the convenience factor or you have set more wash loads :-\\

It's no problem Karen since I'm only washing for myself I can wash smaller loads so the dry timely. As long as I don't have to go to the laundrymat anymore. It won't be a sacrifice. As it is I hate going to the laundry so much I wait until I have a month and half worth of clothing. But even if I had to do twice as much laundry by making  small loads it'd still be more convenient than lugging clothes back & forth and dealing with the transients  8-P and screaming kids!

Since owning a small dog, do you love it?  Or would you take in a big dog in a heartbeat???  I am a big dog fanatic (probably why I have a newfie) and I love my standard poodle (and I want an Olde American Bulldog cross), but really have never owned a dog smaller than 35 lbs.  I am afraid I will, step on it or it will annoy me severely as those I have ever visited are obnoxious.  Just wondering???

A) I can tell you with complete conviction Effie's not obnoxious. (& I'm not saying that as her mom it's actually true!

B) I never thought I would go small. The smallest dog I had was medium sized. Part sharpie about 30 or 40lbs & that was small to me.

C) I'm a big dog person too but to me it's the personality of the dog. Carly's still the best dog I ever had.
But I also realized that because of my back it was really hard to have her at the end. I spent a year picking up her 120lbs to help her in & out the car. It caused me great pain. In the heart and in the back. I know I can't do tgat again.

D) I've stepped on Effie a couple times but she's let me know and I moved before I hurt her. She has a tendency to stand behind me or sneak up on me so when I move I have no idea where she is. I'm learning to look 1st or talk before I move so she moves and I can see. The hardest is moving in the dark cuz she's so quiet and blends into the night.

E) I used to hate chihuahuas but my mom got one (widget-not her real name but that's what I call her) and I fell in love w/ her personality. That's what let me open my heart to Effie. I planned on no dog at all but if I did get one again it was going to be bigger  then ef but she stole my heart at first sight.

F) I take it back, what said in A- ef does one obnoxious thing. She Hayes being excluded so in the landlords are in their yard she'll yelp until the open the gate and let her play. Other than that shes a great dog.

One of the things I could do with my medium dog and now with Effie is cuddle in bed. I loved Carly but she didn't fit in my bed so to cuddle with her I had to lay on the floor. 

I'm toying w/ the idea of getting Ef a compnion. She seems so bored and a friend would help but I'm not sure I'm ready for the responsibilty of two dogs. And how will that dog fit into the routine ef & I established.

I'd buy the interesting ones. As a kid I'd get the clothes and the accessories and do the whole barbie thing but as an adult I wasn't so excited about Barbie fashions.


when I worked at a mom & pop toy store in Stockton I spent tons of money on barbies - an elderly lady came in with her hubby and she had been collecting for years. She used to buy all the clothes and her hubby, a photographer, used to take model shots of Barbie in her various outfits.  The lady had hundreds of barbie outfits open but well packaged and well preserved. 

After her hubby died she came into the store with her daughter. We talked about Barbies for an hour. The daughter was bored but the lady was happy because no  one had talked to her about them since he passed.  she wanted to organize her collection and I offered to come out and help her. I ended up driving her to a barbie show in Sacramento and she was so happy to be out and among other barbie peeps.  We had lunch and afterwards we went to her house and I pulled all her barbies out of storage (the lady was a hoarder before we had a term for it - but her stuff was neat she just had so much of it.)  I labeled all the barbies and we looked at all the clothes and the photo albums and stuff... The lady decided asked if I thought her collection would garner much money and I told her I wasn't sure about the clothes because they were open but the dolls for sure.  She selected a few for me and gave me all the clothes anyway. The next time there was a toy/doll show I took my toys and her barbies. I made a couple hundred bucks *before ebay ruined my business  >:(  but when I pulled out those clothes the barbie peeps went wild! I went to her place and gave her the stuff that didn't sell and 1700 in cash!  She was so happy....sad about the stuff she no longer owned but happy to have some money and that people were really excited about it.  I took out her collection and let her look at it again- then we looked at her hubby's photo albums of barbies.

Soon after that I moved to SB.  I'd seen her a few times before I left and once on a return visit. A year after I moved to SB she died. She left me her Barbie collection and her books (she had hundreds of books... like 50 boxes of books were stacked in my parents garage when I came home to see what I inherited. 

I was really happy to get her collection (sad about her death obviously) but happy because she had some great dolls... her bitch of daughter tho kept some of the dolls she thought were worth a lot of money... I wouldn't mind but the daughter always rolled her eyes when her mom started talking Barbie. I wasn't looking to profit and never, in a million years, would've have imagined her leaving me the collection.  I would have loved the dolls the way the mom did... doesn't matter tho cuz the daughter was stupid and only kept the bob mackies (god I loved those bob mackies)  but she left all the 60s and 70s dolls.... in the end what I inherited was, at the time, before ebay, more valuable than what she kept.

Well, considering the Zodiac Killer commited the bulk of his crimes in the Bay Area and is only presumed to be responsible for a homicide in Riverside (which is an hour or so away from LA) I'd say LAPD is about as instrumental to solving the Zodiac Killer case as they were in solving the Son of Sam and the Boston Strangler cases  ;)

Not all the states have straight borders.  Thomas Jefferson proposed that the western states be divided into a chequer board pattern.  Every state west of the Mississippi has at least two straight borders (except for Oregon Minnesota and Texas).

in my area? in Santa Barbara I think it's gotten up to 105 or 110 (it's rare but it's been pretty frequent in the last couple yrs.


in AZ when I visit my parents I think it got up to 150..... okay not quite but it was certainly above 120.


I don't pay a lot of attention to weather howard so these are guesses I don't actually take the time to look and see just how hot it is I only know these numbers because I have a vague recollection of hearing them mentioned somewhere.

I've thought a lot about that. The disposition of my "stuff" stresses me out. A) I'm afraid of who is going to be tasked with the daunting chore of cleaning out my stuff. They won't appreciate or comprehend the value of it. And since I don't have family I have no idea who would do it I dont have a friend close enough to say would you please....seems like a lot to ask....

And I don't know who to give what. You know it's a lot to think about.

The Paley Center (formerly known as the Museum of Television and Radio) was founded by William S. Paley. Ya know...that guy who started CBS. Anyway he thought that radio programs and TV shows should be kept in a place where people could continue to enjoy them long after they aired.  The center has an extensive library of television (and radio) programming that goes back decades! They restore vintage shows, air themed programs during the diay...ie if a celeb is having a b-day then they will air various shows that that celeb appeared on.

Throughout the year the center puts on special programs celebrating particular series, stars etc.

Last night they were honoring Flo and promoting her book. Carol is her BFF so she was in the audience.

Last week I was trying to "view the view" on  Hula & ABC.com but couldn't from our country. I was able to see it at CTV.ca

I'm curious though.  Can you see the (CTV.ca)  videos in the U.S. or do you get a similar "out of country" message.
Here's the link:

some things I was pondering today

why do people wrap dog poop in a bag and then tie the bag to a tree?  wouldn't it decompose better if they just left it on the floor?

Why do some people cycle the wrong way down a one-way street when there is a perfectly good cycle path that runs parallel to that road?

Is that girl I see in the mornings ever going to realise her cheapo leggings are so thin that everyone can see her underwear?  Or maybe she forgets to put her skirt on occasionally, who can tell?

will I ever finish sewing the curtains for my kitchen?

Will I ever get to see the episode of CSI after one where Grissom was sent of model of Sara Sidle stuck under a lorry?

Because they are stupid.

Actually people seem to think you ride a bike the way you walk, against traffic, truth is you're supposed to treat your bike like a vehicle and go with traffic.  Although, maybe those you see are American and, therefore, they are traveling (in their minds) in the right direction. Oh and the don't use the oath because they never bothered to notice that it's there.

She has no one in her life courageous enough to tell her the truth. Unless you do it she will continue to wear them. If it amuses you then carry on  ;D


will I ever finish sewing the curtains for my kitchen?


Will you? YES When will you? Perhaps just in time for the apocalypse

Depends? Are you actively looking for it! You should've seen it while you were here. It should be on DVD there by now. Real question is.....do you really care? It was kind of lackluster, as I recall.  But it's been a few years. I'd actually have to watch season 7 again to fully remember the whole thing.

We left the UK the week it screened here originally.  The night I could have seen it as a re-run in the US we had a power cut!

Now there is so much CSI on at random times I haven't worked out where we are interms of being able to see it again.  At least you've told me which series to look out for!

Just wanted to make sure i had the right info for you Karen.... The miniature killer did indeed dominate the season seven story arc.  The finale was Living Doll.  That's where Grisom got the diorama  of Sara's car accident. The episode after that was the opening of season 8...it's calked Dead Doll.  Hope that helps.  ;)

The more you spread word and gossip around the more you risk to get wrong or run against wall, that's the way it goes.

Did you get involved in any other misunderstanding on these boards ?

Thanks for the questions Paco!

Have I been involved in other misunderstandings?


Yes, two.  Others may disagree and say there have been more but I will explain.

1) Frank was a great member with an excellent sense of humor. He could give OT really and always took the jokes really well.  I guess one joke another member & I made) didn't land as intended. I don't think the joke was bad, I think it was a sensitive issue in his life hat we could never have known about and it offended it him. We apologized but it was too late.

2) I was joking with another member here and I didn't realize he didn't know I was joking or didn't find it funny. He's still around, and we still interact but now that I know that after 6 yrs he still can't tell when I'm joking I've decided he's not worth joking with. Nice guy but why waste the funny on someone who doesn't appreciate it.

A) I just remembered one more, like number two there is a member here who, on two occasions took offense to something I did....
One ha since turned into a running joke on the boards  the other was a result of said member being too sensitive. I didn't apologize for it because there was nothing offensive about it. It wasn't a joke, it wasn't banter, it wasn't abusive. It was an statement, similar to one I've made in dozens of other posts. It resulted in a ridiculous request being made but the issue was resolved by the mods


Those are my misunderstandings.  King Tut said she was warned about me and my behavior.  I can only interpret that to be in relation to a few battles I've had.  I don't like whiny, 1990s decadeolgist teens with nothing better to do with their day than whine about their mommies not changing their diapers.  If some people don't like my interactions with them, sobeit, I'm not the only one and you have to admit, a few trolls have been exposed because of these exchanges.  JohnAvery and HUD come to mind.

Finally, there are members that ive gotten into fights with. About hat I say this:

1) There two members here who I disagree with deeply on some serious topics. Both of them have, in my opinion, said some hateful things that I took offense to.  I would say we were debating but it was an endless debate. I have, and will continue to try, to avoid their posts where I can. I'm willing to agree with people that you and I don't see things the same way and i will say you are entitled to your opinion, I value that, but can you say the same about me and my opinion? It incenses me when people say no because you're still wrong.

Religion; racism; Gay rights and the right for a woman to chose for herself about her body are trigger issues for me. It sux that in 2011 people are still so narrowed minded about things that, for the most, part won't even affect them....I especially get angry when people use religion to defend their hatred & intolerance.


2) Mcfly and I had a pretty public battle part of it had to do with his position on abortion (a man telling me women should have the right to choose pisses me off way more than a woman saying it). But he also got upset about something and insulted a lot of members here. He made few friends with his posts and really put the target on his own back. Again, I was not alone in that one. 


3) Mr. Mister deeply offended a dear friend of mine.  He took the battle we were having in private messages publicly to the boards and I finished the fight there. It was not pretty and I'm no proud but he said some horrible things in those posts. He was suspended and when he came back two weeks later h lost his damn mind and wrote a most hateful open letter to the mods.  That's what got him banned. 



I apologized in the incidents where I was joking and didn't realize it would offend the other party. I have yet to hear a thank you for my apology.


Wait. Take that back.... I was having a super bad day once and took I out on Howard, outside of the normal banter, I apologized for my outburst and willingly accepted it. Howard's cool like that.


Oh I think I apologized to you too when you first started because I thought you were messing around. I didn't realize you were just learning/practicing English  :)    You also accepted my apology and we became friendly penguins.    O0

Well, so far I haven't asked so much to you Q.      Wrong !!  Cause you always answer your doorbell and cellphone, and inthe00s way beyond expected.

Curiously enough the last person to ask you blew out in a flash, to intrigue me in how it comes that someone could have a row through the boards.

I often hesitate to make jokes Tq. I'm never sure about how it would turn out, nevertheless teasing with care should be a must if you want to fit and join to an odd bunch.  ;)

Single, stiff folks are good to know, too, but when you come across a special one who thinks is  better laugh than cry, smile than frown, to trade for a while, then you wear on nose's top a red ball and you sprout the poet and the clown mixed in your soul. The only requirement is the same short wave must work in both transceiver and receiver.

In other hand, diversity is what makes great a place to stand in.  When you're sailing and you stare at the bow,  you see wave after wave and nothing else in between, the ocean is smaller than loneliness. Soo I like to see kind of different people to emphasize who I am, that it helps me to soar and fake two chaps, loneliness and boredom, the two real fatal comrades I hate the most,  though I never argue with.

I guess some people ain't learnt how to deal with others, so they get into trouble, way too often.  Instead of empathizing they choose ignorance and intolerance.

Having troubles then and now is something we can't avoid, but we never have to make a hell of a row.

And finally,

are you sure I didn't say thank you to your apologize ?  :-\\

Oh..thank you ....a year's delay  :D

I hope you feel better....now. :P

I don't just joke with people out of the blue Paco. I test the waters and if the person has what seems like a good sense of humor I will joke with them.  Most of the people I joke with have been around for years and know my personality by now.  With King Tut, she started joking and we had some fun exchanges without problem. Soimething happened and she took my last post to her to be more than it was. That was her issue not mine. It was pretty obvious that I meant no harm and I don't think, even the people I don't always get along with, would find anything offensive in that post. 

I can't control how people react I can only control my intent. I know deep in my heart I never intended to offend KT or start a fight. So I don't feel bad about the post... I feel bad about the drama that followed it.


And finally,

are you sure I didn't say thank you to your apologize ?  :-\\

It's possible KT was a former member returning or is currently signed up again as a new member.  I really haven't given it much thought.  There are way more important things going on in my life so whether or not KT is here or off in a corner crying somewhere is of no significance to me.

It's not always easy where I work Howard if I'm early I don't just stand by the time clock waiting until my time. I will go to the squad room and check in with the officers or go into records and talk to my boss....sometimes the Chief or a Captain wants to talk to me or I need something from the supply closet or I wait in dispatch and get a shift briefing from the dispatcher who worked before me....

The people in our organization know that it's impossible in law enforcement to do everything on the dot... they give us 7 minutes before or after to clock in.  If my shift starts at 0700 I have until 0707 to clock in.... if I clock in at 0708 then I am late.... If I was in the station and just missed the punch by a minute I submit a form to my boss and she corrects my time card, if I was late because I just walked in the door I take the 15 minuted deduction.

I love this question!!!!  This is the stuff I dream about.... 


Day one.... I would drive to LA, walk into the Paley Center and give them a Million Dollars.... part of that would be for my super special VIP membership and part of that would be to reserve my paley fest tix for the next 20yrs.


Then I would meet up with the realator I called and put in an offer on this great house about 4 miles from Paley... and has a great yard for Effie to run in...


I'd buy a new car and drive to AZ to see my parents.


I'd spend about a week in AZ paying my parents bills.  We would sit down with our list of family and friends and see who we wanted to help out.


At night I would be cruising charitybuzz.org and see what kind of great Hollywood experiences I would be buying myself (in the name of charity of course)... I'd probably also contact some of my fave celebs via twitter and see about a celeb experience in exchange for a generous donation to their fav charity. 


and then I'd pack them up in my car and drive back to Cali. Put them up in the Biltmore in Montecito and then we'd figure out where they want to live so I could buy them a house and I'd get my dad a live in nurse so my mom can take a break. 


I would then buy this sweet little cottage in SB for myself... a weekend home


I'd go to toys R us and find someone who seemed like they were struggling and offer them a shopping spree for their kids...
Then I'd go to walmart and do the same...

I'd go buy gift cards at a grocery store and just randomly hand them out to people who seem to be in need.... the other day I passed the library (in the poor part of SB - yes we have a poor part) and there were maybe 50 people in line to get stuff off the food bank truck... I said that day if I ever won the lotto I would go get $100 or $250 gift cards to the nearest grocery store and just walk down the line handing them out...


I would buy this department a new radio system (because it desperately needs one) but I would donate it annonymously because I wouldn't want anyone from work to know about my wealth...


after all that was done, I'd settle in LA and go to all the paley events and tv show tapings I wanted...


Oh..... and I once told Rob Thomas if I ever had the money I would totally back his plans for a Veronica Mars movie (he said that he and the actors all wanted to do one but they were lacking financing....) 


yeah I haven't thought about this much at all.  ;D

I hate to say this but I never really understood the appeal of the muppets. Miss Piggy always drove me nuts!  I  have tried to give them a shot about 10 yrs ago and I found myself still not interested in the show.  I want to see the movie but I fear I won't enjoy it as much so I will wait for it on DVD. 

Having said that I kinda liked the muppet babies animated series... and, if I had to pick my favorite muppet it would be Animal cuz he played drums and I always wanted to as a kid.

honestly I'm not a big art fanatic. I took an art class (as a requirement for school) and spent a lot of time researching an artist. I can't remember his name  :-\\  but I have a 3 1/4 disk with some of his work on it at home...

I have a pic of Billie Holliday visiting some kids at a black school. It sort of reminds me of, well me, because here are these kids getting a chance to meet this phenomenon/icon.

Have you drawn up any contingency plans for a possible zombie attack?


Why do you think I'm really doing the breast cancer walk. In I can walk 39 miles by late sept I'll be able to travel long distances in dec and I'll be in a position where I can probably run too.
So long as I can out run some people but stay behind the fastest (middle of the pack) then I'll last at least a week!

Plus I own enough documentaries night of the, day of the dawn of the, the walking, and of course zombie land so I'm ready!!!!  :D

It's okay Howard.  It's a dispatcher's superstition. We never put stuff out in the universe because the minute you do it comes back.

You can ask a dispatcher if it's been busy but you can never say 'seems slow today' the minute you talk about how slow it is that's when it get busy.

I once was joking with someone how no one has fallen off a cliff in a while and some one fell off the cliff within an hour.

I once used a car accident as a training scenario and we had one 15 mins later.

I worked with a dispatcher and everytime she put on a Bob marley cd someone died. We banned her bob marley cd lol.

How big is the venue? Will it hold 100 ppl? 500? 1500?  If it's a small venue you can look go early or the day before and wait near the artist entrance and hope to catch them/him going in or out for rehearsal. 

Find the better hotels in the area and stake them out the day before/day of  there may be a chance to catch him/them checking in, checking out, or returning the night of the concert.

Call the local radio station, forgive me for this, but play up your illness, maybe the dj will take sympathy on you and help you get backstage...

is he on twitter? nope...Janet has a twitter account and she's only following Randy... Randy last tweeted on Feb 13th. That means he's not very twitter active but still worth a shot you could start tweeting with Randy and see ask if there will be any fan meet and greet possibilities before or after the show.

Hey Y'all!

Thanks for the advice. I was planning on trying to play up my illness to a bodyguard. To security. My left arm is where my dialysis work is done and anyone can see it. And it doesn't bother me at all to play up my illness. I'm not opposed to it at all, and maybe for once it can benefit me. I have like 5 different Jacksons on twitter and I keep tweeting Marlon and Jermaine because I think Jermaine usues his the most.

And I did buy a ticket to a VIP lounge before and after the show so I hope the Jacksons mosey on in there. My friend only cares about eating in Houston, I don't give a flying fudge about food. She can eat. Just leave me at the stadium with a can of mace for protection. So I'm trying a few things. Playing the sick card, making a sign that asks Marlon for a hug. I'm trying. I hope I deserve it and can meet him.  :)

Honestly any security guard worth his paycheck won't care. ...they're paid to be hard asses.  Do you know who their managers, publicity agents are? Their handlers and assistants might be your best course of action.  Try emailing them and tell them your situation that might work.

If I were to direct a movie (I'd prefer to write one but I'll stick with directing for you) I would love to direct do one of those lifetime movie-esque films...but one where the woman gets revenge on the dude.... like Enough (w/ J-Lo) and Extremities (w/ Farrah)  they both played in the theater. They didn't get huge audiences but they made an impact on me. I love women who kick ass....that's why I'm so pro Buffy.



I wouldn't mind directing a horror film...but only if it's super awesome..... I couldn't bear having my name attached to a really lame horror flick or painfully slow and hard to watch one.

Also, I'd like to get one good rom com under my belt... one destined to be a classic like Pretty Woman.

And super friendly.  At one point he was sitting on the back of that truck behind him, in the pic where he's giving me a goodbye hug,  and he's just chilling eating his dorito's.  two girls walk down the street (we were in a residential neighborhood) they had no idea filming was going on... he yells across the street 'Hey Ladies' in that sexy voice of his... the girls are a little annoyed and look back, stop and stare in disbelief, then a crew member yells You want a hug from Shemar Moore?

He was shooting an episode of Criminal Minds.  My friend and I found out they were filming in a neighborhood so we went by to watch... a couple days later we were driving through Burbank and saw the Criminal Minds crew shooting at a home improvement store. We stopped and found out that Matthew Lillard was shooting... he plays the serial killer - the house we were at a few days eariler is supposed to be his house. He was not there that day so I guess they filmed his scenes later or he wasn't there - there were background actors playing crime scene investigators so he could be dead or they found a dead body in the house...according the home owners the decor for the home was quite "special"  ie unique... the crew packed up the home owners stuff and dressed the set with their own design. There was one item the homeowner liked and the set dresser said she could have it after they finished filming because they wouldn't use it again. 

I wish they'd come shoot at my house!  ;D

He's either doing a film or working for the FBI (see logo on shirt). If he's working for the FBI and Q was there, then she's working for the FBI too.
Howard,  think you and I know too much now, the FBI will have us killed soon.  ;D :D


Ha... he plays Derek Morgan on Criminal Minds. He's an FBI agent on the show and he was shooting a scene in which he storms a house to arrest a serial killer (presumably Matthew Lillard - as mentioned above)

those who came before...those who rose from nothing and made it big....those who do good things....

In case you hadn't noticed I love my celebs so people like Whoopi and Oprah are on my list but I'm not completely superficial....  Every person who marched, sat, stood, bled and died in the civil rights movement has my undying gratitude. 

I met the daughter of Martin Luther King, Ralph Abernathy and Malcolm X. I thanked them all (tho on some level I disagree with Malcolm's tactics I thank him for the fight).

I was in a room and listened to Myrlie Evers  (widow of Medgar) give a speech honoring the movie the Help and particularly Viola Davis work in the film and I cried the whole time she spoke.

I admire the Barack and Michelle for getting where they have and doing with grace and dignity despite all the obstacles, challenges and hatred they've faced...


and I admire Joss Whedon cuz the man is a freaking GOD!!!    ;)

Of the 911 calls we get while many are legite we get far more false calls.  Not always prank calls more like accidental calls. 

The campus has it's own phone system. To dial out callers must first dial a 9... if they have a long distance call they must follow that 9 by a 1. You'd be surprised how many people forget they already pushed the one and wind up pushing it again.  If I were in charge they would have to push 8 to get an outside line. 

(then again we get funded by how many 911 calls we receive - regardless of if they are mis dials or not....so thank you stupid people on campus....thank you but please stop hanging up--- just stay on the phone and tell me it was an accident. I won't send the police if I can prove it was an innocent mistake but I will if go "OH!  and hang up quickly"  ::) 


Some genius also decided to switch from actual handset phones in the elevators to a button/speaker system that sits on the panel with the floor buttons and door open/close button.

you'd be surprised at number of people who look at the button with a symbol of a phone on it and think it's the <|> hold doors open button....  ::)  best part is when they try to be quiet like I can't hear them...  "Sshhhh"  Um... "I CAN HEAR YOU ANSWER ME!"    >:(   

People's embarassment over accidentally calling 911 can cause way more work because if you hang up, are evasive or just sound like somethings wrong we are going to send officers to follow up.  this denies or delays service to those in real need so get over the ego and man (or woman) up and just admit it was an accident...don't hesitate in your response or sound stiff because that sends a warning sign that you may not be able to talk...tell us exactly what happened and why...and answer the questions we ask without hemming and hawing...

sorry I went off on a tangent! LOL

Obviously I know the cops in my agency really well  ;)  we have 30 something officers (with more coming) in our department. 

In addition to the University Police we have Santa Barbara County sheriff's  SBSO, Santa Barbara City Police SBPD (as seen (sort of) on PSYCH!!!) and CHP (as seen (sort of) on CHiPs  :D )


Some of our officers have transferred to the Sheriff's dept so I probably know about 5 - 10 deputies....they probably have 100 or so...  One of the detectives at SBSO used to be a student employee here.  We were campus security together, Actually I trained him so it's cool to see him move up the ranks...

I know about 4 officers at SBPD and one of their major crimes detectives is one of my very best friends.

I know 3 people at CHP (not well enough to get out of a ticket)

And I have friends at other agencies.  I know a cop at Oxnard PD (Jeff's area) - he used to be a child actor and he trained me at the student security job.

I have a friend at San Joaquin County Sheriff's (that's in Ann's neck of the woods)

I have a friend with Huntington Beach Pd

two with Simi Valley PD

3 at Santa Maria PD

2 in Atascadero

and a few friends trying now to get on with other agencies.

I also have a good friend who is a firefighter/paramedic in LA... she just recently got a rescue dog so she may be back east right now....



and I know/am friends with many retired police officers....so when the zombie apocalypse happens I totally know where to go to get guns!  :D

we actually used to dispatch ambulance service for campus and while the firefighters live at our station they are actually dispatched by the county comm center...  about a yr and a half ago we gave the ambulance contract to the county as well so now they dispatch both.


we will get medical calls and fire calls but our primary focus is law enforcement. And we have more crime than fires and medical incidents.

the majority of our medicals are related to alcohol poisoning...shocking right?
the majority of our fire calls are burnt popcorn in the residence halls (tho occasionally an experiment blows up or we get hazardous chemical spills)

mostly we take reports for property crime, vandalism, handle traffic infractions, drunk subjects, assaults (physical and sexual) a lot of suicidal callers and occasionally some person falls off a cliff (aka the incident yesterday)

Since I mentioned it in another thread- ill say Chevy Chase.

Most actors have been really kind to me. Not always willing to take a picture but still pretty pleasant



I don't like the cast of Supernatural cuz they didnt stay to greet their fans after an event

Kyra Sedgwick spent 30 minutes hiding in a back room from 5 ppl wanting autographs. It would've taken her less than 5 minutes to deal with us

Geena Davis was a total bitch. She walked past a group of fans and never made eye contact with anyone. (Not just because she's like 6'5")

Tom welling - Smallville- was pretty stuck up, that was season one. Don't know how he is now.

And I hate to say it but of all the Buffy cast I've met Sarah Michelle hell at is the coldest one. (But I think we scare her)  ;D

I have American Dreams on DVD. One of my faves!

--Snozzie I need your help!

I am having a problem with a "friend" and I need your advice before I get to wrecking feelings like a demoliton ball.
Okay this chick named Jenn has been a friend of mine for about 3 years. We met on a now defunct MJ page and clicked. Now over the years we've talked she's shared alot of things with me, like how she's the result of her mom having an affair with her brother-in-law, making her cousins/half-siblings with her aunt's kids, how she fell and miscarried a child during her first pregnancy and how her family general treats her liek the Latoya of the family. She is also quite overweight and constantly struggling with a litany of health problems caused by it. Plus she seems to have this obsessive nature over an ex-boyfriend who left her for her "best friend".  ???
Through it all, I like to beleive I've been quite supportive and a shoulder for her to cry on. Always trying to up life and putting a halt to each of her more than a dozen suicide attempts. (Which I think are a cry for attention, because if she wanted to die for real, she'd be dead by now)
And of all things to want to fight with me about, she gets bent out of shape about Justin Bieber.  >:( Like seriously.
I have cracked jokes about the singer before and she got all defensive about it like she was losing her mind.
So a few days ago, another friend of mine sent a picture to me on Facebook that had been doctored with Justin proclaiming he was gay. I found it funny and shared it on my Facebook page.
The next thing I know, she's screaming at me on FB and on our messenger. You know she actually had the nerve to accuse me of bullying Justin Bieber? How the hell am I bullying Justin? I'm not in his face. I'm not giving him a wedgie or stuffing him in a locker.
How many times do you think I've heard people call MJ gay? Do you think I'm jumping down everybody's throat about it? I got better things to do with my time. I don't like Justin Bieber...
And it's my constitutional right to have freedom of speech. She tried to flip it and say it was insensitive to gay people. I didn't have the heart to tell her one of my closest friends is actually a gay man and he was not offeneded at all with that post I made. He actually "liked" it on my page.
Should I just cut this girl off, because really, I feel sorry for her more than anything. That's why I was trying to be nice to her. But this thing wit JB is so weird. Like I only jump on the defensive is someone personally attacks me over Michael. If you're talking in a conversation I'm not a part of, it's none of my business. She's acting like JB's personal PR person or something. Gosh. Cause if I lose it and go off on her, I know I'll hurt her feelings something terrible.

Subject: Re: Any Qz about Q? Ask away!

Written By: snozberries on 01/01/13 at 8:34 pm


Personally, I find the Bieber jokes funny as hell but, I know in my heart they are wrong.  He's a person and to make jokes about his femininity is  wrong... It would piss me off is I saw someone doing that to an average teen so why do I laugh when they do it to him?  I'm not sure...I guess because I'm human and I'm not perfect so sometimes I do things that hurt others.

Your friend however may be defensive on the Beiber things for another reason... I mean maybe she's a really big fan! or maybe she has had a personal experience that she hasn't divulged to you.  But you now know she's sensitive about these things so you have a few options...

a) if you post something like this again on FB block the post from her...sure it's a lot of work but perhaps your friendship is worth it.

b) don't post mean spirited jokes about people, no matter how funny it may be... why continue to pass the hate...

c) stop being friends with her and post whatever the hell you want. 

I really think it would be a shame to lose a friend over this type of issue but it sounds like she's deeply offended...no matter how realistic she's being or where she's coming from, as a friend you should recognize she's hurt by what she saw. 

This goes beyond free speech... I mean yes we live in a country where we can say whatever, within reason we want... free speech or not you can't say bomb in an airport, yell fire in a movie theater or joke about robbing a bank in a bank and you can dislike the president but you can't make off the cuff statements about wanting to stop that person holding the position...ie I hated GWB but I'd never joke about wiping him off the face of the earth...

Besides, with freedom of speech comes a responsibility. We should still all be civil to one another. And, if the words we choose to speak freely hurt another person we should apologize (assuming hurting the person was not your intent) if you intended to hurt the person then mission accomplished, no need to apologize

different people have different levels of sensitivity... and, as I said, her issue may go deeper than beiber. This may have touched on something personal in her life she just hasn't told you about.

Sophia Bush...she was on One Tree Hill I expected her to be dumber thana post. .Paley does this Thing in the fall where they promote new shows and she was there promoting the now canceled CBS comedy Partners.  She was smart insightful and funny.

I've been feet away from Larry Davud but I didn't get to meet him

The only way to meet marlon is to be places you know he will be. With perseverance and luck it could happen

I'm a big fan of Oscar Michaeux's films.

A few:

Had a kid call 911 demanding candy. I think an adult put him up to it.

Had a woman call 911 b/c she needed change for a $10 bill. She was pretty pissed when I explained the meaning of emergency situations to her.

Had a woman call because she thought there was a prowler outside her house the night before. I ask the circs and she told me that she heard someone at her window. She wasnt sure if it was the wind, a burglar or a ghost.

Had a lady call because she saw dig poop on a bike path. She was afraid someone would slip on it or a little kid might come by and eat it.

My friend told me about a call she took from a hysterical (crying) family. Apparently the cat got squished in the bed frame. It was clearly dead but the family demanded an ambulance come out. They wanted the paramedics to do CPR. she played the tape for me. It was hilarious.

I like Family Guy but I don't love it... I don't have a favorite character but I enjoy the writing and the Brian/Stewie pairing.... I met Kevin Michael Richardson at an event (well a few events) he remembered me the last time we met and he recorded the voice message on my cell phone.. .it's AWESOME!!! So maybe Cleveland Brown Jr is my favorite character!  :D



I love Gina Prince Bythewood... Love and Basketball is one of my favorite bullshyt lovestories... I have seen that film like 100 times!!!

Kasi Lemmons
F. Gary Gray
Kevin Hooks
Denzel Washington
Charles S. Dutton
Forest Whitaker
I wish I liked Maya Angelou's films better but they're soooo damn slow I get bored quickly. 

Oh and Antone Fuqua
Documentary filmmaker Stanley Nelson
Rick Famuyiwa

Dee Rees just clicked on my radar last month but I need to see Pariah to be sure.



I still ned to meet Oprah!
Janet Jackson (the only Jackson I like!  :D )
I was in a room with Denzel and he looked at me but it would've been nice to meet him
Whoopi
And all the surviving Charlie's Angels...
or and TBoz & Chili!

I used to want to be a set dresser... not a set a designer, just the person who puts up the crap on a set others designed... but then I did the job for one day and thought damn they have to move fast I don't wanna do this.  ;D


I think I'm better suited for script supervisor or continuity.

I always wanted to write a pilot but I don't want to write a series- I don't think I have enough good ideas to maintain full season of good tv.
I wouldn't mind selling a tv movie (course I gotta get the scripts out of my head and on to paper) I think I have three good tv movies in me.

Ultimately,  if I won 300 mil in the lottery,  I would either:


buy a house in LA, SB and San Diego  and immerse my self in what, to date has been a hobby,  attend TV show tapings, set visits comic con, celeb stalking  :D 

or

buy said houses above and start a production company...but if I started a production company I'd hire my friend as the "executive" and I'd give myself a job on set and we'd work from the bottom to the top to make sure everyone was doing the stuff they were supposed to be doing... I would be the "undercover boss" no one knew existed.  ;D


ultimately....if I only won enough money to survive for the rest of my life (ie 3 million or the Publisher's clearing house $5 grand a week for life) I would quit my job and move to LA and get a job as the person who bangs the clappers at the start of each scene.... that's truly my dream job.... no glamour but but you're on set everyday and you get to watch the action until you have to get up and start the next take.  8)

I don't really go for that pants hanging off the ass thuggy look, but it seems like that's all that's attracted to me. And I don't want a man that looks like that at all.

I'm the wrong person to ask for dating advise but I will say you don't need to change yourself. I'm gonna give you some if your own advice:

I recently asked you what advice you'd give young Michael if you could've met him back in the day and you said you'd tell him to learn to love himself and recognize how beautiful he is acne and all. 

My perception is you put way too much stock in what other people think of you and how other people see you- the reaction to your friend commenting on you applying lipstick after a meal, the comment about your friend referring to you as a pastor or preachers wife.... You should look inside of you and find a way to be comfortable with who you are instead of seeking superficial approval from others. Once you are happy Ruth you, as you are, and once you are comfortable being with yourself, and once you stop thinking of finding a man as if you're beating some invisible time clock then it will happen. When you slow down and live your life you will be amazed at the stuff that comes to you when you stop looking for it.

Oh the first celeb I can remember meeting (besides Herb from Peaches & Herb at a crab feast in Maryland circa 1977/8)....  hmmmm....

Kenny Rogers always put on a show for them in Vegas and there was a celebrity baseball game I met Bart Braverman from Vega$, Phyllis Davis (same show), Kenny & Dottie West.

It no longer has the ability to do WiFi so it's kind of useless.  I need a new desk top or lap top...

I didn't hate the Lakers as much when Magic was there... pretty much I loved Magic but I still wasn't a Lakers fan...there was a Lakers/Kings rivalry and so, by default, I sided with the kings...always rooted for them. I remember a western confrence final Kings v Lakers and freaking Doug Christie kept messing up... I was so pissed at him... and Kobe and Shaq


I found a collection of 60 pics tracing the Kings/Lakes rivalry over the years...  http://www.sacbee.com/2011/04/11/3545115/kings-lakers-rivalry.html

I don't watch a whole lot of news b/c I get enough of it at work.

Off the top of my head the end to Charles Dorner's  reign of terror; too many people lost their lives or were injured by that jackoff!

I'm glad little Ethan made it out of the bunker alive. I hope he's strong enough to deal with whatever that sociopath did to Jim down there for 7 days.  :-\\

Due to my work?  Not really... I few years ago I remember reading about a suspect who was brought back to the station (similar to our layout) and he got free and shot a bunch of people a dispatcher died in that one... since then I was forever watching carefully anytime they brought a suspect here and placed him in the room across from dispatch. Fortunately they don't really bring suspects here any longer.

Meesa:


after responding to your questions I remember two scary moments (neither job related) that I shall impart here.... one is only because of the gift of fear that I got out okay the other...well you'll see....


1) I used to drink...heavily! While on a trip to San Diego I went with a group of coworkers/friends to a bar/club. there was lots of dancing and even more booze. I was wasted!  two of my friends found hook ups and not wanting to be the fifth wheel I told them I'd take off while they walked to beach and got "romantic" with the dudes they met.  One of the guys bought flowers so I said I'd take them to the car and then meet them at the beach...problem I had was I drunk, in an unfamiliar city and had no freaking idea where the damn car was... 

Anyway it was like a scene from one of those scary lifetime movies....It was 2am, I was walking down the street carrying these stupid flowers, the streets were packed with people filing out of bars...it was a crowded area...lots of clubs... I wondered for what felt like 45mins...in all actuality it was more like 10 or 15.  At some point I was completely oblivious to the fact that the streets which had been packed were now deserted...It took some doing but I found the car and put the flowers in the trunk... as I closed the trunk I felt the hairs on the back of my neck stand up... I had no reason to know anything was wrong. I don't recall hearing a sound, I don't recall seeing anything... I went from lalala put the flowers in the car to maybe i should RUN!!!!  NOW!!!! 

I took a second to look around...and I saw a guy standing on the corner staring at me... he was about 1/2 a block away. Fortunately I was about 100lbs lighter than I am now  :D    Anyway I went... um....uh oh....RUN! and then I ran... still don't know what it was that told me he had ill intentions I just know my gut said this had all kinds of bad all over it so I ran... I ran HARD...harder than I've ever run in my life... the more I ran the more sober I became... I wasn't sure where I was, mostly a residential neighbor hood.... there were still no people... I didn't scream, I don't know why... but I could hear the guy running after me...  after running a couple blocks the guy was getting closer... I didn't know what to do but my instinct said turn right....right now... I did.. and OMG there was a taco bell. I have never been sooo happy to see taco bell in my life!!! I ran right into the arms of a security guard who just happened to standing there... I tell ya, if that had been a dead end, or the taco bell had been closed I would've been done...there was no where left for me to go...as I ran to the guard I heard the dude pause and then run away....  I caught my breath and saw a Dennys across the street. I went to it and found a different friend. Told him what happened and he walked me to the beach to go find the people who'd hooked up... I promptly started drinking again cuz I'd run all the alcohol out of me... and I was one giant bundle of nerves....

Scary encounter #2


I mentioned before I had a back injury...while I was out on leave my friend asked me to adopt a dog her friend rescued...the dog was a runner and seemed to run away everytime the friend left for work. Since I was home all day they figured the dog wouldn't run from me... because of the injury I couldn't walk her on a leash..she pulled something fierce but I learned she was an excellent off leash dog never really ran from me so I would walk her late at night off leash...less traffic at night and no one to judge that I had this big ass dog off leash...


anyway- there's a field where we lived a great place to walk a dog off leash...I took her there one night, it was pitch black...I did not have a flashlight and I couldn't see shyt... because i live in a college town and where I was  about a mile or two from the school there are lots of transients in the area...usually they keep to themselves but sometimes you get a bad one...

I was standing in this field minding my own business letting Carly do her thing... and I hear the slow squeak of a bicycle... I can't see anything but I'm pretty sure the person on the bike must have adjusted to the dark and could totally see me... I hear this "Squeak-Squeak-Squeak' slowly approaching...then I feel the dog come and lean her full body weight against my legs... I don't say a word...I think I actually hold my breathe....then I hear this person getting closer to me and my dog....bless her timid heart did something I never knew she could do... she growled the meanest growl....she knew dude was up to no good and she let him know it....next I knew I heard squeaksqueaksqueak....as the dude raced away from us!  ;D

I don't recall exactly what they did...I do know they required me to be awake for it and I wore a cast for a few weeks.  I have low tolerance for pain and high tolerance for medication so I mostly remember fighting with the bitch of a nurse how much valuim I would need... I told her three she said I could only have one.. I said no I need three if I'm gonna get through this... she conceded and gave me two... during the operation I jumped when the dr cut into me... the nurse said you shouldn't be able to feel that... I replied with...well I can and it effing hurts... her response "I guess I should've given you three"  NO SHYT!  >:(



you could start a petition to get the jacksons to Houston.  Sorry but unless it involves getting Janet back to santa barbara I'm not signing any petitions


I'm not a big fan of british period pieces so no I've never watch Downton Abby


I think the jacksons are too old for you maybe one of their sons...

Thank you for the answers. I can certainly understand why you would be hesitant to give out any advice. Trusting the inner voice I definitely relate to-it has saved me more than once.

As for your scary situations, I probably would have had a heart attack in either case!  :o  That is partly why I have my german shepherd. He is very intimidating and very loyal. Scares the crap out of ppl that walk by even though he is behind a fence. But he is also very good and gentle with my family members. Sounds like your dog knew how to take care of business!

I used to joke that she was such an attention whore that she'd let a burglar walk out with my whole apartment so long as he stopped and rubbed her belly first.  ;D 

I really didn't think she had a protective bone in her...she was big and that was intimidating and she was vocal...but all her moaning was about people not paying attention to her...  ::)    people who didn't know her were freaked by the sounds she made but I knew what she wanted everytime she started in...that moment in that field was only one of two times I heard her growl... the other involved a construction worker who got too close to the car but I think she just didn't like his hat or the loud tools...

we were once in a parking lot, window down for the dog and two transients came up to the car and started reaching in to pet her... that goofy mutt was all tongue and smiles... PET ME MORE!!!! COMEONPETMEMORE!!! YESSSS  ::)    :D

I worked at a haunted toys r us before that I saw a disembodied head/spirit float over a sleeping friend at a slumber party.

I'd wanna contact Farrah Fawcett And just thank her for all the years of entertainment. Charlie's angels came at a time I had no friends. It was the first show I was obsessed about. Burning bed, small sacrifices &  Extremities were great flicks that showed her range and all in all I really just enjoyed watching her act. She made it look effortless.


I think Malcolm took the wrong approach whites already had specific opinions of blacks and Malcolm's in your face approach sort of exacerbated the issue. King was all about we're tired of this shyt and we will be here everyday until you see it's wrong too. It took longer but it's a lot harder to fight with non resistance than to actually fight back. You put people off balance. You make them look like the bullies. Malcolm gave whites a reason to keep the fight going.


I often wonder what things would be like if king had lived... What would he say about where we are. In a way we have a lot to be proud of but in other ways...  :-\\

My first and only "operation" I've ever had was carpal tunnel surgery a few years ago. I shouldve had back surgery but they wouldn't cuz of my size  :-\\


One way 525miles santa barbara to Mesa AZ


I drove about 700 miles in a day three or four times.  Each time I went to northern California for something I left at 5 or 6am did what I had to do and then drove home the same night. 




I've always had dogs.  I had a turtle it creeped me out I gave it away. I had a bunny. It chewed thru an electrical cord and died.  I think it committed suicide.  Dogs are the best.  I had a car when I was in 4th grade. The thing was evil. We called it Edi Amin it ran away. I was glad. I always hated cats.


I don't really like parades. The last parade I went to was a local one some thirty yrs ago.


I hate football (except for football movies). I prefer nba - I don't like the long shot clock on college ball but if I had to choose a. College sport it'd be basketball. 


In high school I did really well in English- funny thing- I never read any of the books....not a one. I read the friends Romans countryman speech from Julius ceased cuz I had to memorize it but I never read anything else yet I got all A's in English.  I sucked at math, science and religion tho. Never cracked books in those classes either  :D 




Totally-  I was working Christmas eve. It was my 11th shift in a row.  We worked 11pm to 7am then. At midnight the officers (there were only two on duty) checked out their units. That was the last radio traffic i hears.  I put in Men in Black in the VCR and started watching. If you're familiar with the film then you will understand when I say the past thing I remember was Vincent D'Onofrio crawling out of a ditch at the beginning of the film and the next thing I saw was the final battle at the washington monument. I missed the middle- hour + of the film.  I quickly ran to the recorder and breathed a heavy sigh when I heard the only radio traffic off the night had been the officers checking out patrol cars.  The phones are loud- there's no sleeping through a ringing 911 call.




Great questions thanks!  Please ask more!

John Stamos when he played Blackie Parish on GH
Rick Springfield when he was on GH
Robert Urich - Dan Tanna Vega$

Sorry but I'm not find of snow. I don't want to see or touch it ever again in my lifetime.

I'm allergic to a particular brand of hand sanitizer. I break out into hives when I use it. It's the only king they had to get them to order a different brand.

As you know I detest cheese. I often tell people I'm allergic because its easier than saying I don't like it. Truth is the yellow cheeses make me vomit so my physical reaction is like an allergy  ;)

She catches her guy, and the sequel is called "You've got male"  :-\\

Nah.  Don't see it. She gets mega $ and finds another guy...wait for it

This one I'd pay to see.



Will & Anna break up, but he gets together with a suddenly rich Vivian Ward. Julia Roberts in a dual role.

Wow... Totally misses it- sorry- and thanks for pointing it out.

With this fest being the 30th- the question came up a lot for me.

I remember my very first Paley center event being meeting the cast of Any Day Now- to this day it remains one of my fondest experiences!

I tried during paleyfest to remember my first but I couldn't recall. Oddly enough- yesterday I created a FB listing all the Paleyfest panels I've attended.  Freaks & Geeks was my first in 2000.  I've been every year since and have attended every panel -minus one- since 09. I boycotted the hills.



My ultimate celeb experience would be being a part of my favorite show. Ie playing an extra.  I often thought about - if I won the lotto- starting a charity called Extra For Your Cause... I was gonna offer producers x number of $$$ to be a background player in various shows.  I found out a few years ago you can actually do this anyway. There are a few websites that offer walk on roles as auctions. I have a 'friend' (see the sound off thread  ;) ) who won one and she and her ex - my friend Dom- can be seen in the bar (twice) on How I Met a your Mother.  I wanna do that.

Or I'd like Oprah to invite me to her next legends ball!!!

If you've ever seen Inside the Actors studio it's like that. 

The actors and producers of Tv shows are on stage talking about the process of making the show.

If you had gone to a paleyfest for Seinfeld bank in the day this is how it would've gone:

-You enter a theater (back then it was a small theater only 600 seats- now it's 2000)

-They would've shown you an episode (usually a new episode-not yet aired) of the show

-Then the moderator introduces the panel

-Larry David, Jerry, Julia, Jason, Michael, Wayne (Newman) perhaps the actors who play the parents sit in chairs on stage and get asked questions by a moderator for 45 mins

-There's 15 mins if audience q&a

-Then we all rush the stage and ask for autographs & pics.  ;D

-Sometimes we get lucky and get personal time to talk to them but sometimes it's rushed.



Really popular shows like Big Bang theory it's chaotic and kind of painful. Other shows its real easy and very fun.

Written By: snozberries on 03/22/13 at 5:06 pm



Btw there's a difference between paleyfest panel and a Paley center event.

The core structure is the same but Paleyfest is held at the Sabam Theater which has 2000 seats. Paley Center events happen at the Paley Center which holds just under/over 200. There's sometimes a reception. It's way more intimate and calm at the center.

I mentioned it recently in the April thread but basically

I'd get myself a house in LA and one in Santa Barbara
I didn't say this but I'd but myself a really good membership at Paley (it's a non profit so it counts as a charitable donation O0

Speaking of charitable donations I would also bid on every meet & greet or set visit auction on charity buzz and bidding 4 good that interested me 8)

I'd get a good car so I could start my cross country road trip and visit every city I had a friend living in...plus visit every restaurant I'd ever seen on tv that I wanted to eat at.

After I got back to Cali I'd spend the rest of my days watching tv, watching tv shows being made or going to events about tv shows.

And I'd produce a couple if scripts for some friends.

Somewhere in there I'd pay off bills for myself and my parents and I would help out a few close friends in need.

I wanna buy a piece of property that is (or I'd take a piece of commercial property to convert into) a roller rink. 
The roller skating rink would remain intact.
The area where the lovers are I'd convert to a living room.
I'd turn the concessions to a state of the art kitchen/replica 50s diner
I'd convert one bathroom to an up scale guest bath
I'd convert the other to a gym
The employee area would be my master bedroom. The office would be my office I'd find a guest room somewhere
The skate rental would be my office
The DJ booth would be my media control room
And I'd have a full on arcade in the arcade area. It's be filled with all my favorite games.

I've also thought about converting an old movie theater into a home-
The balcony would be the master
The lobby would be a formal living room, dining room, kitchen. The concessions would be intact (or converted to a retro concessions)
Of course there'd be a full on arcade (like the roller rink house  :D )

I'd level the floor in the main theater ( instead of a sloping ramp) but would have two separate levels one elevated a few feet approx 5 steps up that would be the family room/screening room
The lower level (front rows section) would be a would be a gym
The office would be the office. The bathrooms see above

I liked yours cuz it was a McMansion. And I liked Tash's cuz it was on the beach. Those are dream homes cuz there's something to dream about.

My practical home would be located in a specific neighborhood in Goleta Ca (it's a couple miles from SB (3 miles from work- close to the best walking trail in the area.  It would have
3-4 bedrooms
2 1/2 baths (minimum)
Open floor plan
Fenced yard for Effster
And a flat screen tv and directv receiver in every room - including the master bath.
(Not the guest baths tho)
I hope for two closets in the master (only one needs to be a walkin)
and I want (my one luxury) one of those washer/dryer in one (its one piece the size of a washer that does both washing and drying.) you know how Europeans have a washer in their kitchen? I'd want that appliance installed in my master bath!

It's fantastic. And super easy.

A large (supersized) Hershey almond bar
16 lg marshmallows

Melt the chocolate and marshmallows (with the milk)

Once completely melted and well mixed add one container cool whip and pour into a pie shell ( I use the ready made shortbread pie crust).

Then put in fridge for a few hours.

They suggest topping with cool whip but I find it too rich so i just use the areosal whipped topping

No. I don't have a blender or a juicer. There's a great juice place here (Blenders in the Grass) it's so much better than jamba juice. Anyway when I'm in the mood I just go there.

I meant when you cook spaghetti?


I make my own sauce. I use canned tomato sauce and packaged flavoring but I chop my own onions and brown my own meat when I make the sauce so I feel like I practically make it from scratch.  ;D

Oh...the spaghetti, not the sauce? We buy it in packages.

Not a fan of hot tea.  If I drink it (sorry Karen) it's gotta be plain old lipton's, with a ton of milk and sugar and served Luke warm.


I love sweet iced tea. Lipton's (sorry again Karen  :D ) makes a Pure Leaf Extra Sweet Tea it's hard to find but, if you like sweet sweet tea it's awesome!!!!

I'm confused. I know you interpret things literally when you read them but when people talk about making spaghetti that means the noodles and the sauce.  When I said spaghetti is the only thing I know how to cook well (and you said its possibly thebest thing you cook) did you really think I only know how to cook spaghetti noodles? (and does that mean- since you use jarred sauce- that the best thi g you cook is spaghetti noodles?)

Season three has been so awesome I pick that one....


Most people hated season 2 but I actually liked it. I got a little bored with all the looking for Sofia but the payoff was phenomenal.







Hands down my favorite moment of the series is the scene where's Shane goes off on rick and lets the walkers out of the barn.  Big talker Shane didn't have the stones to put down poor little sophia....Rick was the only one man enough to do it...

Some good choices there. I don't know the themes for most of those programs but if I were interested I could look 'em up on Youtube.  I remember Ducktales; when I was a kid the theme was one of my favourites, and I liked watching the show, too.

It's been New Balance but I recently bought these expensive pair if asics & they ROCK.

It was more than I could afford to spend but I was staking out nordstroms cuz I knew Oprah was going to be there and I needed something to kept me looking like I belonged in the store. Sadly I didn't see Oprah cuz they brought her in a private elevator and put her in a private room while the clerks broght stuff to the 9 African girls from her school who were visiting.  :-\\

I was going to return the shoes but they were so comfortable I just couldn't.  I'm doing the Avon breast cancer walk (39 miles in two days) and need good shoes so I kept them...I just didn't eat that week  :D

I rarely watch any.  I do like Ellen though, she's funny.  There were so many good ones that are no longer on the air.  I enjoyed Ricki Lake before but her current show sucks.  I also really liked Tyra Banks' show.  There were a few others too.

Great answer  :)  Though I am a big fan of George Romero and love the first one, I favor the remake.  I enjoyed the sf/x Tom Savini did on the original but I also like how the newer one kept it simple.  Also in the remake, the character developement and the way they were like a family, though nothing like that of The Walking Dead, was great.

Yep... and they are still juicy as ever!

I also have a set of thin Crayola markers that have been around since the early 90's; some of them are dry but the others still have some juice left in them.

All of them but I think my ranking goes
2, 3, 1, 4, 5, 6, 7


2 & 3 are my faves.
Season 4 (minus the Adam/initiative crap)

I have seen 1-4 so many times. I always stop halfway thru 4  ;D
I have watched 5-7 less often but only because I feel the need to start watching Angel too and then I get tired of changing DVDs

My ultimate wish is a BUFFY/ANGEL Boxset that puts all the eps in the order they aired so you can watch the Buffy/angel years without changing discs.

Obviously not. I think Carroll o'connor played the character brilliantly but Archie Bunker was an uninformed, uneducated bigot. He feared change and didn't like ideas he couldn't understand.

I've said this more than once. My favorite ep is when Archie realized how his point of view affected Stephanie. That scene wit Archie and steph on the porch is my favorite moment from the whole series.

My second favorite is the audience reaction when Edith escapes her would be rapist.  Now that's TV in front if a live audience!!!

You're rambling about GH so it's all good. I started watching in the early 80s I think my first episode that I chose to watch was when David fray kidnapped Laura. Actually I started watching before that but that's when I started paying attention.

Hands down the best era was when Claire Labine was head writer. Over the years I've drifted in and out. When ever I return I always regret drifting away. The last time I drifted was when they had the black & blue ball and Emily died. I never understood killing her off- I mean what was the time frame for Natalia Livingston returning as her twin??? Lol
The Alan's ghost storyline nearly killed me.
What I really hated was Greg Vaughn as lucky. I hated Jacob young too (I thought fake lucky I and fake nikolas - I forget the actor's name) I always thought they were making out in the dressing room between scenes. There was a def vibe btwn young and that dude.  Greg Vaughn (aka fake lucky II) was a horrible actor. I remember Becky Herbst (Liz) being nominated for a daytime Emmy and they showed her clip and it was her in an "emotional" scene with FLII he was chewing up the scenery like a fat kid unleashed on an all u can eat cake buffet.  It was so bad the actors in the Emmy audience laughed.  You could see the shock on her face. I think she thought they were laughing at her. She's a great actress but she married Juan Santiago (remember him) whatever that guys real name is he's another bad actor. So maybe she has an affinity for bad acting. Lol.

They still had one of the best casts in day time. Tony Geary Jane Elliot Becky nessa m. Sarah joy Rena sofer John ingle amber tamblyn Steve button they were so deep then every once in a while you had to endure a Ricky Martin.  :D

Hands down the best era was when Claire Labine was head writer. Over the years I've drifted in and out. When ever I return I always regret drifting away. The last time I drifted was when they had the black & blue ball and Emily died. I never understood killing her off- I mean what was the time frame for Natalia Livingston returning as her twin??? Lol
The Alan's ghost storyline nearly killed me.
What I really hated was Greg Vaughn as lucky. I hated Jacob young too (I thought fake lucky I and fake nikolas - I forget the actor's name) I always thought they were making out in the dressing room between scenes. There was a def vibe btwn young and that dude.  Greg Vaughn (aka fake lucky II) was a horrible actor. I remember Becky Herbst (Liz) being nominated for a daytime Emmy and they showed her clip and it was her in an "emotional" scene with FLII he was chewing up the scenery like a fat kid unleashed on an all u can eat cake buffet.  It was so bad the actors in the Emmy audience laughed.  You could see the shock on her face. I think she thought they were laughing at her. She's a great actress but she married Juan Santiago (remember him) whatever that guys real name is he's another bad actor. So maybe she has an affinity for bad acting. Lol.

They still had one of the best casts in day time. Tony Geary Jane Elliot Becky nessa m. Sarah joy Rena sofer John ingle amber tamblyn Steve button they were so deep then every once in a while you had to endure a Ricky Martin.  :D

About Jacob Young and Stephan Martines (fake Nik)... I have read on various sites through the years that they were supposedly hooking up  :o

I watched nearly every day GH was on from the time I was a young kid (late 80s) until 2002.  Then I stopped watching, for whatever reason I don't remember.  I didn't start again until 2008 when Sarah Brown returned (she is my favorite soap star).  After her Claudia was killed off in October 2009 I became and on/off viewer.  I would watch a few weeks at a time then stop watching for weeks.  However over the past year or so I attempted to watch daily again but that hasn't worked out since over the past few months it has turned to crap.  It's possibly because of the new writers, but it really hasn't been very good for years.  I have watched several old episodes online, even some from the time I wasn't an avid viewer and there were some good stories, such as the plague brought on by Luke's monkey.  Sorry to ramble on your thread Q  :P

I used to watch OLTL as a kid on and off because of school, and started taping it everyday when they invented the VCR (I swear it was invented by a soap watcher). In the '90s when I was going to college, I was often home when it was on so I would watch and I didn't turn off the t.v. when it was over. GH came on right after and naturally I got caught up in it. This was about the time when Luke & Laura came back. Like I said, I stopped watching ALL of them when they cancelled Port Charles (or Port Chuckles as Luke would say  :D).

Some great stories:

-Robin & Stone with AIDS (and of course the Nurse's Ball)
-BJ & Maxie's heart transplant (I cried for three days watching that story line)
- Sonny forcing Karen into prostitution
- Lucky & Liz and Liz getting raped
-Monica & breast cancer
-Jason's accident and he turning into Jason Morgan
-Lois & Eddie Maine-L&B Records.
-Foster AKA Skillethead & Annabelle
-And naturally the Q's antics which were always entertaining. "It is MY house!" "That I bought for you." 


I could go on. We should start a GH thread.  ;) :D ;D ;D ;D

Told ya.  They did have chemistry. Lol. They def weren't good enough actors to convince us otherwise. Go back and watch their scenes again lol.

I got sidetrack.

I meant to mention I have well over  200 hrs ofGH on my dvr. Soap net did a marathon during the 50th 48 hrs of classic GH.

Also at 1 & 2 an they rerun the series. I don't know where's they are in the run but I have 150 eps of Liz being pregnant with jake. I'm trying frantically to catch up. I also have the PC metro court hostage crisis. My fav (even tho Alan dies I love the directing in those eps. - most my face Scott McKinsey

Then I have some GH from after the 50th that I fell behind on I stopped recording them when I saw a clip of Todd manning (I mean tiger howorth) as Franco  ::)

It's good it happened because my dvr couldn't take anymore. Thankfully it's summer and I need to clean out my apt. Btwn not a lot happening in TV and my enjoyment of devouring GH while cleaning I should power them down I no time.

Apparently there's a ship called the Queen Elizabeth that's in California  ;D


Also I found this pic of the Queen disembarking the HMY Britannia in Feb 1983.

http://latimesphoto.files.wordpress.com/2012/06/fa_648_queenarrival970.jpg


They were in San Diego.  from San Diego she traveled north to LA to address the LA City Council and said:

The queen lightheartedly reminded Los Angeles residents that her northward journey from San Diego this weekend paralleled a similar trip made 400 years ago by Sir Francis Drake “who (unsuccessfully) claimed this territory as Nova Albion for the first Queen Elizabeth and for the queen’s successors forever.”
“I am happy, though, to give you an immediate assurance, Mr. Mayor, that I have not come here to press the claim.”


During this visit, Queen Elizabeth II stopped in San Diego, Palm Springs, Los Angeles, Sierra Madre, Duarte, Santa Barbara, San Francisco, Sacramento, Stanford, Palo Alto, Yosemite and Seattle. 


HEY She was in Santa Barbara... I was in Salinas in 1983 tho

Weasels think people like them because they are furry animals but really the only one who likes a weasel is another weasel. I don't trust them. I don't want to deal with them and I think they think they are being sneaky when they do certain things but they should know that they are not fooling anyone but themselves....

Extremely hard. We try to work with two dispatchers on duty but its not always possible.
With another dispatcher on I can go to the bathroom as often as I want (unless its busy - but adrenalin rushes during busy times make the bladder hold longer)  :D


When I work alone I have to ask a police officer to cover for me. They hate being in dispatch so I hold it for as long as I can then when I have to ask for a break (over the radio) I really have to go...but they hate doing it so they take their sweet time.  ::)

That sucks.  I usually only hold it in when I'm trying to sleep.  If I wake up 4 hours or so before I have to get up for the day I will go to the restroom then back to sleep but if I only have an hour or less I force myself to stay in bed and go or at least try to go back to sleep.  :P

VPX Bang is favored by movie theater, Sears Auto Center and Chuck E. Cheese employees at the mall where there are 3 stores that sell it (GNC, Target and More Of Everything, but it's only available cold at More of Everything). It is about the most powerful energy drink available, as powerful as Redline Xtreme or Spike, but more palatable and in a bigger can.

I have an addictive personality so I have a tendency to over indulge in the things I love/like. Case in point. TV. Stalking celebs! Etc  8)

When I posted I drink way too much Mountain Dew I was probably drinking 6- 20oz a day. I could (and have) drink a 2ltr in one sitting. I'm not talking about nursing it for most if the day I mean sitting down with one and drinking it in one sitting - it just takes a few minutes.


I attribute a lot of my weight issues to my soda intake and went off sodas (except for the occasional one at dinner out or a movie) I never drank them. I wouldn't let them in my house or my car. I lost 60lbs

I had a bad experience and sorta slipped back to the Soda and unhealthy eating. Not to the extremely - but enough so I gained back 30lbs. Now I'm back off the soda- well I will be after comic con is over. There's no time for healthy choices at comic con.

I like coke over Pepsi but really don't care anymore if its coke or Pepsi. If in gonna cheat I want md, sweet tea (unflavored), or a cherry flavored drink....in that order

Time isnt the issue for me...it's accessibility.
If I go before I leave home and drive 5 minutes to the movie theater I will go again because I can't stand the thought of being captive for 90+ minutes.

If I drive to a mall even if its just for one item- I will go upon arrival and departure.

The only place this doesn't happen is in a grocery store. (Unless my bladder starts knocking while I'm shopping)

Not very well. I have three people that I genuinely dislike working with. Two don't work in dispatch so I mostly butch and groan and mumble whenever I hear them

The other I have to work in close quarters with. We have two things in common (three actually because she dislikes me immensely too). The other two are the job. We have to communicate on a professional level to get work done.  And we both like dexter.  On the first day of the week we will chat for a few minutes about dexter. The other time together we don't say a word to each other unless its work related.

We can go hours without talking.  If she really posses me off (happens a lot) I take a fit break and walk off my irritation.

Funny thing. We used to work a lot together and I hated it so whenever possible I would burn thru my comp and vacation time and not go to work. Once I stopped burning my time because I needed to save it she started burning thru her time and not coming in. We are supposed to work 30hrs a week hog enter. We barely hit 15.

I hope you don't mind me going off on a tangent in your thread but whenever I hear about Bakersfield, I think of this story.

I used to work with a guy from Bakersfield and he said that Merle Haggard lived there and his horse drowned in a pond he had on his property. Another co-worker of mine said, "Merle Haggard's new song: My Horse Swims Like A Rock."

So, whenever I hear Bakersfield I think: "My Horse Swims Like A Rock."

Well, I thought it was funny. I guess you had to have been there.


Ok, back to your thread. We hope you will be able to take a day off or two probably in Sept. some time.  ;)

Zombies who died athletic humans should have stronger muscles therefore they should be capable of swifter movement

However, since the brain neurons or synapses or whatever fire differently after death I don't think sprinters should sprint. I just think they shuffle a little faster than the poor old regular saps who died and came back  ;D

They have production assistants too. But the clapper person has to be on set at all times because if there's a mistake in takes or they have to reset the caneras they can't be off getting coffee.

Any favorite screenwriters (and why are they your faves?) 


I'm a bigger fan of TV writers than screen writers. This Joss Whedon is a screen writer (toy story, alien resurrection, cabin in the woods, avengers!!!)

Joss is my fave because is a master if dialogue. He's also the voice of a generation. Not any particular generation his writing transcends most generations. He's a feminist and writes really strong women characters. He tells a story and writes with wit. His language lingers on the lips. Case in point. Google Buffy quotes!!!

I love Jane espenson (Buffy, angel, battle star, once upon a time)- mostly because she writes like joss.

I love Amy Sherman Palladino (Gilmore girls & bunheads). Talk about a whiz with words. She can cram about 3 episodes worth of dialogue from one regular show into one ep of her shows  ;D

The thing about TV writers is they have more power than screen writers. Most movie scripts have had so many passes on them that the script is rarely the same as the product delivered by the first writer who touched it.

In movies the power lies with the director not the screenwriter- unless the screenwriter is the director (AVENGERS!!!)  :D

I saw a true crime show the other day and it sparked a desire to write a script loosely based on it. But I haven't say down to write it yet. I haven't written in a while but I read two of my friends scripts and I think I give them good insight in my comments. I just need to find the motivation to sit and write again. In addition to the one script I mentioned I have two or three presumably great scripts run mining thru my head.

The true crime script I think- if she'd be interested in doing it- would be great for Juliet landau. I would love to write it and present it to her but it doesn't exactly work that way....plus it's be awkward as hell if she wasn't interested. I will write it with her in mind but if I were lucky enough to sell it I would suggest her for it (if I could) and let the producers work it out.

  What is your favorite piece of memorabilia?  What "elusive" piece of memorabilia would you own if you could?  Do you like any golden era television shows or movies?

I have a red and white soccer ball I got parminder n. (from Bend it like Beckham) to sign
I have a Poe mask I got from the following screening I went to.
I have two comic book strip prints (1-bc & 1- Calvin Hobbs - oh and 1- Cathy) that I really love
An original imitation of life giant poster that I have no room to display now and my imitatin of life lobby cards and photo stills.

Clearly I can't pic just one.

Once I get joss to sign my once more w feeling poster that will be high on my list. If I ever get SMG to sign it too it will be #1  (I also need james marters -will get him soon, anthony stuart head and Hilton battle)
I guess getting that poster completed is my one elusive piece  ;)

I also saw- years ago- on ebay- third watch posters. One per character. I have two of them. I have never seen the others again  :-\\
And I have replica Cagney & Lacey badges. They are teeny tho. I would like full size versions but after 911 they stopped allowing replica nypd badges to be made.


Golden era shows?

Honeymooners is still a favorite
Don't know if you saw my FB post a while back but I've been devouring the Alfred Hitchcock hour. I'd seen every ep of AH Presents but never the hour long series. It's amazing!

I love Donna Reed and leave it to beaver

I used to watch I married Joan, the Ann southern,my little Margie, Danny Thomas,etc show on nick but I wouldn't call them faves.  I appreciate Lucy (up until try went to Europe and California and Connecticut. But I'm actually bored with it. I'd seen it so much except for a couple eps that get me every time.

Oh and I loved courtship of eddies father.

And Andy Griffith.  :)

i fell out of a chair a few years ago resulting in a back injury that still plagues me today.

During my avon walk last year I fell when I tripped over a crack in the side walk. I scrapped my hands.

On Friday night I was at a Veronica Mars event at Comic Con and I had to go up this escalator. I was first in line and excited so I started walking up the escalator but my body was tired from all the walking and standing I had to do at comic con so I couldn't lift my leg high enough. I tripped in the escalator and hit my wrist and shin on the stair.... both are bruised.

Aside from an unnatural fear of mice (dead and alive) and those stupid little Isla Vista Frogs I don't think I'm scared by much.

I actually like being scared- like horror films or being home alone and hearing a weird sound...thinking someone is in my landlords house when they are on vacation. I like feeling my heart beat in my chest as the adrenaline flows. I love the moment you realize that you let yourself get all worked up over nothing. That moment- just before you realize it wasn't scary at all- that last moment when it's still really scary! That's the best feeling in earth.

(Of course should I ever find a homeless man actually sleeping in my landlords house) it would scare the shyt outta me!!! For realz!  :D

Aside from an unnatural fear of mice (dead and alive) and those stupid little Isla Vista Frogs I don't think I'm scared by much.

I actually like being scared- like horror films or being home alone and hearing a weird sound...thinking someone is in my landlords house when they are on vacation. I like feeling my heart beat in my chest as the adrenaline flows. I love the moment you realize that you let yourself get all worked up over nothing. That moment- just before you realize it wasn't scary at all- that last moment when it's still really scary! That's the best feeling in earth.

(Of course should I ever find a homeless man actually sleeping in my landlords house) it would scare the shyt outta me!!! For realz!  :D

Technically. Since your brother missed the ought the odds are more in your favor that you would've crashed.
Had your brother made the flight (glad he didn't) then there would be better odds you'd never crash. Because he missed the crash it's more likely you will crash. 

Basically- the odds are equally low for two members of a family being oart of  or will escape a crash- your brother was never part of a crash but he did escape one so I did the math...I think yiure twice as likely to be in a crash!  :o

Hi! Here's some questions:

--What is your best quality?




My sense of humor and my generous nature.... stop laughing I'm totally serious!!!



--What are some of your hobbies?

you mean outside of tv watching and celeb stalking? 
when I get out and walk I usually enjoy it but sometimes it's hard to get motivated. 

I love video games but I'm so far behind on my TV right now I just don't have time.

I love virtual house hunting. I can spend hours online looking at houses available in the areas I want to live.


--Do you have a favorite Youtube channel?


not really... I don't spend a lot of time on youtube.
I have my own channel (snozberries) or snozberries44.. I forget...
my work has one with goofy videos about campus security and student safety.


--What breed of dog is your favorite--if you like dogs?

I love dogs.... most people probably expect me to say chihuahua cuz of my Effie but that's not the case... I used to hate them- then my mom got one and she was awesome... then I got one and she was also awesome... then my mom got another but she's not so awesome  ::)   

Best dog I was ever owned by was my Rottie Carly. I would take her back in a second but since she'd dead that's not a possibility. I would never get another Rottie because it would never live up to the standard set by Carly. 

I don't like any particular type of dog.. mostly it's just the dog's personality that attracts me.

Thank you for your questions...


I don't know that I'd want to "interview" anyone person... I would love to sit and talk to Rosie... like for a long time... and Oprah. 

Favorite Horror Movie?  The last 20 minutes of Halloween and the first  15 minutes (or so) of When a Stranger Calls (the original one with Carol Kane as the baby sitter.... the last 20 minutes was more psychological than gory... as was that segment of WaSC... 

having said that I actually really love gory horror... I love blood and guts.... psychological thrillers have to be done really well. I have high standards so I am rarely impressed by them.


Hands down the horror villain who scared me the most in my entire life was Madman Mars.  I have told the story many times on the boards. If you want I will repeat it for you but I don't want to bore you with the details if you've seen it before...

Written By: snozberries on 10/10/13 at 11:22 pm


When I was in 9th grade I had a slumber party for my b-day... my parents bought a VCR and I got to rent a couple of videos... I rented the Entity and Madman...

The entity was kinda lame...at least at 14 I couldn't really get past OMG SHE'S BEING RAPED BY A GHOST!!!! 

Madman was about a Jason like dude who lived in the woods who killed anyone who uttered his name... that movie terrified the crap outta me and my friends.  For two weeks I was looking in my closet and peeking out windows looking for Madman Mars... If I was outside alone at night I would run everywhere for fear he was coming for me. 

Fast forward to my senior year... Madman Mars is a flicker in my distant memory.  I went out drinking with some friends... there were 5 of us in a pick up truck... 3 in the cab and two in the bed. I was one of two in the bed.  My friend who's truck it was and the friend in the bed of the truck with me had been at my party and were terrified by the movie too.  We drove to Prunedale (aka the sticks of Salinas) and were in a densely wooded area. The friend who owned the truck was picking something up from a house. The two people in the front of the truck with her knew the person who's house it was... my friend and I in the bed of the truck did not know the person who lived in that house so we opted to stay with the truck...as my friend climbed out of the truck and walked towards the house she called back to my friend and I... "Don't let Madman Mars get you"  as soon as she did I was instantly transported back to the Dec. 1982 and that film and the fear that followed... I shyt you not Lyn and I sat back to back in the truck watching everything coming our way and screamed at the every sound... we were messed up for the rest of the night.

In 96 I found Madman on a DVD shelf and instantly bought it because I have this memory of it being the scariest horror film of all time... I never watched - for two reasons.  1) I'm terrified it's still really scary and 2) I'm scared it's not. I think if I watched it again and it was totally lame that it would crush me.


Thanks for asking!  :)

In horror films? Good tension and build up. The suspense is way more scary than the thing that jumps out in movies.

I hate it when directors put in fake suspenseful moments. I can see them coming a mile away. Plus they tend to over use them.


As i said before as a kid madman scared me. Also the last 20 mins of Halloween and the first few minutes of when a stranger calls. 

but as an adult  I've seen hundreds of thrillers and horror films here's the list of what actually scared me


-Silence of the Lambs- the basement scene. The first time I saw it in theaters. It freaked me out
-Jeepers Creepers was scary but only when I didn't know what the creeper looked like. Once I saw the creeper the movie was stupid
-the book and TV movie Intensity (Dean Koontz) freaked me out
-High Tension:  the 1st part (in the house) was so much like intensity it really freaked me out. But, again, the last half sucked
-Texas Chainsaw: the remake with Jessica Beigl- it was pretty well crafted and gave me some good scares.
-The Conjuring:  I actually jumped a few times in the theater.

It was alright.  I wasn't familiar with the book so to me it was kinda like Full Metal Jacket...basically I loved it when they were in boot camp but got bored once they got to Vietnam to.  Ha ha ha. Apparently I mistook Ben Kingsley (Ghandi) for Patrick Stewart (Star Trex Next Gen, Xmen) he was a British bald dude with warrior ink all over his face.

1st you need a smart phone
Then you download the shazam app
Then when you hear the song again you open the shazam app in your phone
It will listen to the song and tell you what it is. (It recognizes most -but not all-songs)

Is there a similar app for classical music?

I think shazam recognizes classical music but I don't know for sure. You could try using the free version to test it out.
Many thanks, I will look into it.

I have not seen GwtW. Never wanted to

I have seen Hattie in The Little Colonel, Show Boat, Stella Dallas, they died w their boots on, and the TV show Buelah.

No I haven't heard joan Crawford sing

Yes.  But I have issues with BF know (think about it and you'll figure it out ) therefore I don't go to public pools. My dream is to get a home where I can get a pool to myself and start swimming again- haven't been in a pool in years- I know I would lose weight fast with a pool  :)

I can ride a bike. In fact, before I was a dispatcher I worked as campus security. We rode bikes all the time.  I was the biggest one but I was fit as shyt!!! I would ride 5-10-15 miles a day 4 or 5 days a week.


BLASPHEMY!!! Lets see. I hate extreme heat and I hate snow and I hate the south. Um. I guess I'd have to settle for Hawaii. Have they finished building that bridge? Cuz I don't fly. Lol


I laugh all the time....after I hang up....I am pretty good at maintaining composure on the phone and the radio. I have has to stop transmitting on the radio a couple times because I was gonna laugh or someone was trying to make me laugh.  We kinda of have fun with one another trying to bust each other up.  One dispatch- I call her giggles McGee- is way easy.  One word and she starts busting up.


I played the news footage of the dispatcher in AZ who was heard "laughing" on the phone.  In my professional option she didn't laugh at that dudes girl being on fire.  She said it outloud- we repeat stuff that's important so the person working with us knows what we have and the can start dispatching while we stay on the phone.  Unfortunately we all also have a really dark sense of humor and laugh at things most people would think is inappropriate but its not a OMG that's so funny laugh its a HAHAHA NO SHYT! Sort of way. 

Anyway she said 'your girlfriend is on fire?' The others in the room had a 'ha ha no shyt' moment and she reacted to them (not the caller). He misunderstood and took offense.  The thing is she stayed on the and remained professional and never varied from her duties.

I've seen an ep of Sons when they were at Paleyfest. It looks really good. I plan on watching that soon (and Breaking Bad) but right now I'm fulfilling my promise to Al-B and working on Justified which is good.

If you like horror or great scary drama then I highly recommend Walking Dead. I just got Tam into it and she's devouring it!  :)

A reunion movie would be too sad. I mean Kevin pretty much laid out everyone's lives in the finale. Jack dies and Kevin & Winnie do not get married.  Why would I wanna see that

you should use a fan to dry the carpet also, I know it's cold but, open a window to let the area where the wet carpet is air out... let it dry fully before sprinkling any powder on it... then you can febreeze or carpet deodorize the area.

I know I'm still pissed off about that.

Lisa died in a car accident in Hondouras. She was actually too young (she was 31)
I know you won't think so but she was a super-talented rapper.  TLC is a little more than hip-hop it's like R&B fusion Tionne (T-Boz) was the funk with her deep voice & Rozonda (Chili) was the soul with the smooth vocals & Lisa (Left Eye) was the hip hop with the raps. She was an amazing lyricist. I miss her.

Like I don't think about this every minute if the day.

I love Santa Barbara but I play so much in LA I'd actually have two homes.
They don't have to be mansions or anything but I need a yard for Effie and her new sisters (I'd get more dogs to keep her company)

I don't like sharing walls with people so I want a free standing home however I have two dreams-

One is purely indulgent....I wanna buy a roller rink and convert it to a home.  If have the arcade and the rink. The concessions would be my kitchen (a 50s style diner decor w/ juke box). The locker area my living room. I'd have a giant tv the DJ booth isy electronics heaven and the managers office would be my bedroom.

The other Is convenient.  Much as I hate sharing walls I think it would be really cool to buy a small apartment complex in LA (a four plex or 6 unit place). I wouldn't use it for income though. I'd use it as a flop house for my out of state friends to come to Paleyfest. I have friends in NC & a friend in Montreal and One in Fl. They would each get their own apt. If I only had a 4plex the friend from FL apt would actually just be a guest alt. if let anyone who came to visit stay there whenever they wanted.

Montreal and NC I'm trying to get them to move to LA so I wouldn't use their apts if I dodnt need to. fL would never move to la. 

Don't forget the place has to have a fenced in yard for my dogs. :-)


I would have to retire. Too scared of being sued plus my job s too demanding. All I want to do is get out of there.

I could find plenty of stuff to do. Mostly I would celeb stalk. I'd buy all kinds of experiences on charity buzz. I'd go to cons and show tapings. I'd get on more TV sets and visit location shoots and them I'd spend a lot of time catching up on shows I've missed.

Finally I wanna take a cruise. Not just any cruise. I wanna rent out an entire cruise ship and only invite people I know. That way it's not so crowded and I like everyone on board  ;D


Oh and I want a condo with big balcony (or townhouse w yard) in Sam Diego so I have a comfy place of my own to stay for comicon

You were added to the list long ago. You and Sarah and anyone you want to invite.

I figure I can't socialize w everyone the whole time so my friends get to bring their family & friends. 

Only one rule.  And you know me so you know it's firm. 

Everyone must bring water shoes.  There will be no bare feet on my cruise ship  ;D
I know people will wanna wear flip flops and stuff  8-P but if your feet get near me I will  have a helicopter standing by to take you to the nearest shore... Then u gotta find your own way home :P
Safest way to avoid that is to bring only closed toed shows along with your water shoes!

I sometimes wonder if Yvette Nicole Brown (Shirley on Community) thinks I'm stalking her. I find myself at a lot of events she's at and she's sometimes surprised to see me there. I told her once I hope she doesn't think I'm stalking her. She laughed and said no but then after that I saw her three more times and I think her brain started going there lol


I used to joke with Busy Phillips (Freaks & Geeks, Dawson's Creek, Cougar Town)  that I was stalking her because I was always at the Paley events she attended.
She laughed at me. The last time I saw her she said hey my stalker's here then she laughed.


I feel weird that Juliet Landsu (Drucila on Buffy & Angel) and I are email buddies.... but she almost always emails me first and is always inviting me places.  It's cool but surreal.

There are mountains in California that get snow every year. There are ski resorts there.

In Santa Barbara where I live it doesn't snow but once- at least once in the 18 yrs I've lived here its snowed once. I don't k ow if it ever snowed here before I moved here.

Yes I have clogged a toilet. 

I've never had carpet in the bathroom so I never had that problem. Plus I normally get the water turned off before the the water overflows out of the toilet bowl.

Oh mannnnn. Way too much. I was a pre drinker. Meaning I would drink before I went out to get drunk. I always felt uncomfortable at parties because I only knew a few people. So I would drink before to loosen up.

I once drank a 6 pk of Zima and 4 Jack Daniels Down Home Punch
Then at the party I had two 20 oz glasses of vodka oj & grenadine. It was abt 16oz of vodka to 3 oz of OJ (both times) and a splash of grenadine. Then I had to do two shot of peppermint schnapps (my punishment for not doing the one req shot when you walked they the door. 

I blacked out early in the evening. I remember nothing after 1145. (SNL Watson TV. I saw Rosie O'Donnell's monologue. Everything after that is gone)  :-[

I've met Jon Heder. He was nice.

On your list the only one I want to meet is Tom Hanks. I've met his son Colin (after his appearance on Dexter I ran into him at a comic book shop in LA)

I've met a few movie actors like:

Forest Whitaker
Jennifer Hudson
Kathy Bates
James Cromwell
Lily Tomlin

Mostly I meet TV actors but since I started getting tickets to movie premieres I meet more movie actors now

What is/are your favorite memories from your childhood?


Most of my fondest memories were when I lived in Las Vegas (5th-7th grade) my dad had retired from the military so I thought we were going to settle down so for the first time since 2nd grade (Panama) I let myself connect with people and made friends.  (I was wrong and the thing I had been trying to avoid - the pain of leaving good friends behind- happened again  :-\\ )

But some of my favorite memories are:

Playing Charlie's Angels with my friends...I was Jill she was Kelly & her brother was Bosley
When we weren't running around outside with toy guns we'd play with the Charlie's angels dolls and barbies. Our dolls were always on the love boat and dating Ponch & Jon (CHiPs)

Riding my BMX bike on a bike run some big kids created in the desert. That was awesome

Playing marbles and kickball with the neighborhood kids

And eating coco puffs. Holy crap I loved coco puffs!!!

I only listen to the radio in my car so 20 mins (40 round trip) when I go to and from work.  Anytime I run errands. And when I drive to and from LA (90 mins to 2.5 hrs one way a few times each month) Sometimes, if I can't find a good song I will put on the music in my iPhone.

I don't know if you'd consider the Psul Robeson film Emperor Jones (1933) a gangster film but if you do I liked that.

Stanley Kubrick did a great film in 1956 called The Killing.

My birthday was 5 days ago... I'm a Sagittarius

I didn't know that happened but I always knew he was twat so that just confirmed it.  Shemar Moore on FB has "Baby Girl of the Day" where he posts a pic of one fan a day wearing his line of Baby Girl T-Shirts and/or Hats....about a month ago he made a large girl "BGotD" and there were some really hateful posts made by other people on FB...Shemar came back and posted that he loves women of all sizes and basically told people to stop hating... for that reason alone I love Shemar about 20x more than I already did....

No I cannot... not unless I pull it apart and assemble it like a puzzle...closest I got was getting 3 sides at once.


I don't eat cheese so I don't eat pizza often... when I do I only eat Domino's and I get it the same way every time.  Double (or Triple depending on what the coupon has), NO CHEESE, light sauce.

How do you feel about the shock announcement of the retirement of Justin Bieber?



I don't feel anything about it...

I will tell you it's a ploy... a gimmick so that when comes out of "retirement" all his fans will marvel and flock at his return and make him even richer than he already is...

How does one play minigolf. Evan is taking me out to play, and I've never played before. I hope I don't accidentally smack him with the club.  :D


well first of all it's mini golf... do not... I repeat DO NOT raise the club above your shoulder... you are not trying to knock it 300 yrds... it's more like pool... stand facing the general direction of the hole you want the ball to fall into pull the club back a little and swing....

best bet...youtube how to minigolf and you will get a decent answer...

Have you ever fired someone at work..and how hard was that to do?




No but have been accused of doing so... lol

I was training a dispatcher.... As I have said before Halloween here is a really big deal. It's like Mardis Gras... people come from all over the state to party in our little square mile radius. 

It got so bad that a few years ago they decided to lock down campus parking lots...only students could park with a special Halloween permit they had to obtain during the week. Faculty and staff could park if they had parking permits on their vehicles. 

So I worked Saturday and Sunday the first year they implemented this rule... On Saturday morning we got no less than 200 calls asking us about parking.... the speech:
DISPATCHER: You can park in our lots if you obtained the orange permit by friday. If you didnt get the orange permit then you cannot park there. If you have a regular campus parking permit your veh will be fine... 

So, I would get a call "Can I park on campus?" my trainee would be on the phone with me and listen to me give them the speech. 
The phone would ring again... same question. Same answer.  Trainee was on the phone listening to the exchange...
Third call same thing...
It went that way for a while.... 

A little later I had two officers contact a couple people (one or two had a warrant) at the same time an officer was on a vehicle stop with a person with a suspended lic. There was too much for the trainee to handle at the same time so I took over the calls.... the phone rang... I asked her to answer it... she did and the caller asked about parking on campus.... the trainee said to me "Tq can they park on campus?" I said... just give them the script you've heard me recite all morning... "um...." so I tell her the rules again.

Not a minute later the phone rings again and it's a person asking about parking. I wish I were exaggerating but the trainee could not answer the question....so I told her again...we go through this one more time...

at some point a student employee (who does not work as  a dispatcher comes in) when the phone rings again and the trainee answers it and she says (again I wish I were kidding) Tq it's another person asking about parking... (at this point I was abstracting warrants and getting a tow truck etc... I looked at the student employee and said "did you hear me talk to the last people on the phone?"  he said yes... "do you remember the parking regs I gave them?" yes...  "GREAT! I'm a little busy....can you sit down and answer the phones until I am clear these calls?  sure... he answers the person and as soon as he hangs up another call comes in and he answers it without asking me any questions! 

I look at the trainee and say... THAT'S what I expected you to do... I had the CSO stay and answer phones and left the trainee sitting there watching a 19 yr old do her job better than her.  (It wasn't my finest moment but that trainee was one of the worst I 'd ever seen and I didn't have time to sugarcoat it)

later that day, as she was leaving, she asked about the shift she was scheduled for on Sunday. (it was dayshift with me)  I explained to her that it was the night after the busiest night of the year for us and we were going to be really busy... I told her that if she did not show up I would be alone. I said I could really use the help and, if you think you can come in and do the job and really be a help to me then please COME IN! but if you weren't going to be able to handle calls on your own it would be more of a hinderance so it would be okay if you stayed home... I gave her the choice...

On sunday she didn't show up... and she didn't call... I called her and found out that she realized she would be more of a burden than a help. I told her that was fair I admired that she recognized that and I only wished that she had called me to let me know because I had been waiting for her and I had hoped she would be there to help. 

On Monday she came in and went to the office to talk to my supervisor. 

My supervisor then came in and said "Tq you can't fire people..." I said I didn't fire anyone...  she said the trainee said I fired her  ::)
I told my boss the story.... she laughed and said....well it's okay she just told me she realized she wasn't cut out for the job so she quit anyway  ;D

you should do yourself a favor and watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer! It's a great show...and, of everything Joss has done, it will always be my favorite. 
He also did a modern day version of Much Ado About Nothing that is brilliant. He is currently working on Avengers 2. 

On the surface Buffy is a show about one girl with the power to slay Vampires and Demons. She alone is charged with saving the world time and again from the bad things and the apocalypses that constantly threaten the world.  That's on the surface... The show is set in a town called Sunnydale, it is a town that is literally built over the mouth of hell.  Buffy is high school sophomore dealing with all things a teenager deals with but she has more responsibility than most adults.  At it's core the school and the demons are a metaphor for the evils of the real world.  Bullying, domestic violence, rape, death, love, betrayl, trust, friendship....BTVS deals with all of these on a very unique yet very deep level. 

(and if you ask me about the movie I may scream) although the atrocity that that movie is is what motivated Joss to save his beloved Buffy and resurrect and redeem her character in a series where he maintained creative control.

I don't care what kinds of shows Joss makes...the man has never let me down so if he adapted the damn phone book I will be the first person in line to see it!


In all honesty I hated Miami Vice so I don't have a whole lot of questions about it. . .  but I'll try and think of one

We know you like you him and we know you think he is innocent of the charges but as much as you think he is innocent there are quite a few of us who believe just as equally that he is guilty.  The MJ stuff you post in your Ask Tiff thread is fine cuz it's your thread...in all honesty I don't look at the pics or read a word of what you write around an MJ pic because it's not of interest to me....


I think, since you are asking me publicly, I will be blunt (same thing I would say to you in a pm), sometimes I get annoyed because you get mad when someone says something negative about MJ but you are equally judgmental of Beiber fans or even your friend who likes that one band.... if anything you should be more understanding of beiber fans because they love someone who is hated....and lets be very clear here... I HATE MJ from the very core of my being. He makes me sick. I know that's not your truth but it is how I see him. 

I was having a discussion with someone about how I feel and she reminded me that we grew up on MJ and so we saw him grow from a little boy tho this unrecognizable creature...you were exposed to him in reverse so perhaps you just don't see him the way we do because you didn't have the experience of watching him deteriorate physically and mentally the way we did.... plus....we know think he is guilty of all that he was charged with and we think he his ulitmately responsible for his own death as he was a drug addict who hired a dr who wouldn't deny him the drugs he was seeking to provide care to him... a good dr would've said no to the drug regime MJ was on but MJ didn't want a good a dr he wanted someone who would help get high...

I love it. I'm sorry Herchel had to die but it makes sense. And now that the group is scattered it leads to interesting story telling for the second half of season 4.

My friends and I think Carol didn't kill Karen and that dude but took the heat for the psycho blonde kid.
Also, I don't think it mattered that Karen and dude died because, judging at how fast the virus spread in the next ep they would've died anyway.


I can't wait to see what's next.  And, finally I like what they've done with Carl. I hated him season 1 & 2 but he's evolved to quite the useful and resourceful little man.

-I don't really have a favorite. I think the ensemble clicks because of the various characters. Independently they aren't that interesting.

-I have always hated the character of Fraser on cheers so I never watched the spin off

- there's a radio station that plays 70s 80s and 90s music. It's user friendly name is 95.9 Rewind I don't remember what it's call letters are.

-no I didn't. As I told Howard- music is not all that interesting to me. With a few exceptions I rarely listen to anything new. I will, eventually, get the new Eminem cd and I will buy the new TLC cd when that's released but other than that I probably buy one or two CDs a year


-I don't have any questions for you at the moment

I think he's an amazing lyricist.

From EW:

Slim Shady’s The Marshall Mathers LP 2 had the second-biggest sales week of 2013, moving 792,000 copies of  eighth album. That beats many of the industry predictions, most of which anticipated between 700,000 and 750,000. It’s around a million albums less than the original Marshall Mathers LP did in 2000, but it’s still a strong showing from the veteran rapper.

It’s the biggest opening week for Eminem since Encore moved 710,000 in its debut week in 2004, though that was only based on three days’ worth of sales. It bests his previous two debuts, as 2009′s Relapse opened with 608,000 copies sold and 2010′s Recovery did 741,000 in its first week.

Damn, I must REALLY get around on TCM.

I have seen ALL those pictures. Even both versions of "The Maltese Falcon" during a double feature one afternoon. "Mildred Pierce" is my favorite Joan Crawford picture.
I watch MP just to see Ann Blyth smack the sheesh out of Joan over ten thousand dollars.
https://24.media.tumblr.com/f9d7c047c73773df3942c0ef8ca49e15/tumblr_mnlzboGHuL1qgfdhto1_500.gif

Don't even get me started on "Sunset Boulevard". That film started my entire interest in Gloria Swanson. I even tried to find the silent film she showed to William Holden (during the scene where he complained of her smelling of tuberoses--at the same time I wore a tuberose based perfume by sheer coinicidence) and was disappointed to find the film was lost and the only suriving footage is the few spare seconds in SB.
https://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mcvyf1MmRE1rv8zdao2_r3_500.gif
It was YEARS before I saw that brand of exquisite lunacy caught on film again.

"Strangers on a Train" taught me not to talk to strangers, anywhere. Talk about Stranger Danger times a thousand.
I've watched "The Third Man" for two reasons, one, because Robert Osbourne wouldn't shut up about the cinematography in it,(which was neat to watch unfold) and two because it inspired a famous video by the skinny man.
I enjoyed all of the films, and even have "They Live By Night" saved to a film favorites list on Youtube for myself. 
I love "Rear Window" with Jimmy, I only hated the last scene when he got thrown out of the window by Raymond Burr. It didn't look realistic, and yes, I know itwas shot in the 50s before CGI took over but it made me laugh.

I DO like my old films greatly.
I could go on and on about why I like the films, but I'm sure other people want to ask you about stuff.
But thanks!  ;D

thanks for asking....

technically English is my second language (but it's the one I'm most proficient at) 


I was born in Holland to a dutch mother and an american father. my mother's english was limited and my dad's dutch was passible so I learned dutch first.  I found out I was actually taught a highbred of dutch and surinamese since my maternal grandfather was born in holland and my maternal grandmother was born in Suriname...my mom grew up 50/50 in both places and the family fused the two languages....

we moved to the states when I was about 4... he went to viet nam within a month of our being here (in the states)  so I learned english from the Electric Company and Sesame Street.  my mom knew enough english to get a job and basically learned as she went...

up until 9th grade I was fluent in English and spoke enough dutch to get by on my own in Holland... I never learned to read or write it but I spoke it really well (except that I still didn't know I was speaking a hybred of the two aforementioned languages...)

anyway... I went to Hs in California which meant I was forced to take French or Spanish... I chose spanish because I thought it would be more useful.... that's when I learned I had a mental block on languages... I am not capable of holding more than two full languages in my head.... I kept wanting to translate the spanish to dutch...

I now speak English fluently and can speak a little dutch and a little spanish...enough to get by in an emergency I think...but not enough to hold a full conversation with a native speaker...

I can't let you kill yourself, if you are staying then I will stay too then you will be responsible for my death....  Andrea's like..okay let's leave... then the black woman is like.. I'm gonna stay here and kill myself and dale and andrea are like... whatever  ::)   



I hated Lori because she was a master manipulator.... she pitted shane and Rick against each other in the worst ways imaginable... sure she played all innocent but she knew what she was doing.


I hated Carl because he would never stay in the effing house!!!!  my friend sent me this pic sometime between season 2 and 3  ;D

I'm stuck between MLK and RFK.  MLK because, like Dag, I wonder what the world, particularly certain afflictions of black culture that piss me off (I hate it that when the stereotypes are perpetuated in the real world. I hate it when I see black folks acting the way white folks 'expect' them to act.  I hate that black youth - and white youth- use a particular word as if it has no history and means absolutely nothing. and I wonder how he would feel if he saw that we didn't rise above the ashes and do better in this country...yeah we have a black president and it does me proud but then I watch those stupid talk shows and court shows like the various small claims court and tv divorce courts and I think wtf...  :-\\ )


With Bobby I really think he had good ideas and good plans. I think he could've been a good president I wonder what changes he would've made and if we would have progressed faster than we did....


I think ultimately with either MLK or RFK the race issue would've progressed and been tremendously different today but I honestly think RFK would've been more powerful and influencial in the decision making process... MLK would've made a lot a noise.

Together the two of them could've really kicked ass!

I saw what you said about MLK. I don't know if you've ever seen it, but the show "The Boondocks"  hypothesised what would have happened if King hadn't been killed, but put into a coma for 40-some-odd years and then awoke to see the world as it is now.

I can say, he did some shouting at the end....he wasn't pleased....no he wasn't.

I saw what you said about MLK. I don't know if you've ever seen it, but the show "The Boondocks"  hypothesised what would have happened if King hadn't been killed, but put into a coma for 40-some-odd years and then awoke to see the world as it is now.

I can say, he did some shouting at the end....he wasn't pleased....no he wasn't.



When u see dag's response to this same question you will see that I did indeed and referenced the boondocks ep.


I honestly thought having a black president would change our representation in TV.  On one hand it did in that there were a LOT more black folks in mainstream commercials. Lots of diversity in ads came really quickly.

But the shock tv got worse. Almost like network and cable shows just had to keep reminding us what the stereotypes are  :-\\


I'm talking about negative representation in reality tv..... The black person is typically more villainous than likable.  Actually there's been a trend to diversify network scripted shows as well. We're still ancillary Characters but at least we are there more frequently and in greater numbers.

Sami is correct... I am not much of a cooker... is that term? cooker?  cookie.. mmmmm cookies  :D


I do know my dad used to dice up onions and put them in the ground beef (rather than on the burger)  it was good.
I think he also soaked them in milk or something for juiciness....  that's as good as I got... but I prefer them on the grill.

GOOD QUESTION!!!!


I'm a purist... Bufffy only ever belonged with Angel (I'm not into the comics so in my universe there is no season 8 so buffy is still straight)...  I know it's tragic and they are the tortured lovers destined never to lie together again because one sweet release and he will turn evil again.... still i'd rather them have a sexless marriage than see buffy with Spike....

Even if I were into the whole buffy and spike thing that would've been over for me the MINUTE he tried to rape her (Seeing Red)  >:(    I don't care about his presumed love for her... what he did was not okay. 


also, Spike was not the bad ass he professed to be...  yeah he killed two slayers and Drucilla was a psyciopath so he was bad ass for her..but he was always just a love sick puppy.... Dru leaves him and he shows up back in Sunnydale, crying like a bitch about it...  he hooks up with Harmony  :o ::) ... I mean really spike show a little respect lol....  then the Initiative find him an, by means of inserting a chip in his head, essentially castrate him...    he falls for Buffy and is so desperate for her that he friggin gets Warren to make him a Buffy Bot... a love slave, a thing that will love him unconditionally because it does not possess a brain and exists only to serve him.    the when he does "get" buffy it's because she is lost and distraught... she was ripped from the comfort of heaven and forced to live in a world of demons and evil and all she felt was pain and suffering and loss...there was a void and she needed to somehow force herself to feel something  I consider Smashed and Wrecked to be the equivalent of cutting... but like emotional cutting.... rather than physically cutting herself Buffy slept with Spike.... 

btw... lets not forget Once More with Feeling again where Spike is trying to be all bad ass and I don't need you and I'm a man ARRR.... and then he goes back because he's totally Buffy's bitch?  ;D 


two points.....

one) do not interpret my synopsis as displeasure with the writing or the storyline.. I loved every minute of it... I loved that they made me hate it so much...  and I love the way it all played out....even tho I didn't really want it to play out...that means they were successful.... 


two) if the choice is Angel or Spike... ANGEL 8)
      if the choice is Riley or Spike.... SPIKE  ;)

Well, it did have blue cheese, but I'll sub Pepper Jack.
And I'm subbing worschester and lousinana hot sauce for the habenero because I like having a goddamn tongue. Evan likes food so spicy till snot runs from his nose.

Ingredients:
quality hamburger buns
2 pounds 20% lean hamburger
bacon
crumbled blue cheese (NO)
habanero hot sauce (NO)
garlic salt


--Pre-cook bacon to crisp. Mix hamburger and hot sauce in container.
--Shape into patties of desired size. The thicker the better. Sprinkle garlic salt on both sides of patties.
--Set patties aside 10-15 minutes.
--Pre-heat grill and cook 3 to 5 minutes on first side. Flip burgers, add bacon and blue cheese to top. Grill 3 to 5 minutes.(this is going into a nonstick skillet becaue I'm not going near a grill...I don't want to get all smoky!)
--Serve with lettuce tomatoes, red onion and mayonnaise with cilantro mixed in.

I'm going to practice it.  ;)

Def Buffy.  It's in the writing. High school was a metaphor for life and the demons were a metaphor for the challenges we face while navigating life. The hell mouth stands as proof that life often sucks and doing the responsible thing isn't always easy.


Effie is a black chihuahua. She was named after Effie white I dream girls.

She's not spoiled per se but I treat her well I don't walk her as much as I should and I'm not big on giving daily treats. I give treats when I need her to do something she doesn't like.  She is like my child and I would cut off my right arm for her.

Poor scratch. I miss my rottie Carly. Lost her about 6 yrs ago and it still feels like yesterday.

I can say that, except for "The Gentlemen" in the season 4 ep titled Hush, I don't find the demons particularly frightening. For me it's more about the writing. I'd be curious what you think if you do decide to watch.

Isn't Nigella that poor woman whose husband was seen choking her in public?  :( I'm so glad she's divorcing that scoundrel. (I'm not condoning choking in private either, unless a person is just into the freaky stuff.  ::) )

I don't know. I dont know anything about her. I remember seeing the show but I don't know who she is.
I try and stay away from tabloid and celebrity real life status and relationships because I feel like, famous or not, they have a right to a private life so I choose not to follow that stuff.

depends on what I am buying. I like comparison shopping on line  and buy most of my electronics and DVDs online but  I cannot buy clothes, shoes or furniture online. I need to see that stuff in person before I decide if I want it.

Hey Snoz,

Let me ask you something. I guess I'm asking advice. I'm NOT mad. I have a friend Jenn, sweet girl, but she has some issues. I am her friend. She knows I am her friend, but almost every other day, she asks if I'm still her friend. She thinks she's bothering me when she opens a chat with me--she never bothers me.
Now we have butted heads about a certain celebrity--Not MJ--and we had differing opinions, and perhaps I was sharp with her, I'm sharp with everyone, but she constantly seems to doubt that she IS my friend.
And she is. What should I do? Because I'm tired of getting that "Are you still my friend?" message all the time.  ;D ;D ;D

Thank you.

My honest opinion is Jenn has low self esteem issues and that you put something out in the universe that she interprets a certain way and that, coupled with her own self perception, is what's causing her to doubt the status of your friendship.

So you guys will have to have a talk & come to some sort of agreement that you are friends and there should be no need to mention it.

For example, I have a friend I consider very important to me. We don't talk often but we talk regularly. She used to be a member here but hasn't been around in years. We would send countless emails back and forth and sometimes talk in the phone. She was going through something and I reached out to her... I was going thru something far less severe but still needed to vent and I felt like she was the only one who would get it. I apologized for laying my crap at her door and she said she was happy for the distraction. We both have a habit of apologizing before we unleash and we both genuinely don't mind the using each other as a sounding board. At any rate we finally agreed to stop apologizing and qualifying why we were unloading on each other. It freed up a lot of time and unnecessary guilt.  You need to have that kind of talk with Jenn. We are friends- there's no reason to doubt the friendship- so stop it. 


As for the biebs thing....Sami was right in her post but I don't think she said it very clearly so let me phrase it in a way that is clearer. (And know I'm not trying to start a fight with you)

Biebs/ Jenn is virtually identical to you /MJ

Jb made bad choices when he decided to drive under the influence . Jenn doesn't see that. She wants to blindly follow her star and believe he's infallable.


Our differences on MJs innocence or guilt on certain charges aside.....
It was a bad decision to bring kids, unsupervised, into his bedroom for sleepovers...it invites doubt and opened him up to certain accusations however, you are such a devoted fan, you don't want to see where MJ was culpable for the stuff that happened to him subsequent his poor choices you just want everyone to believe it was perfectly innocent and natural for him to have sleepovers. 

When you follow a celeb blindly you want them to be perfect so you make excuses for their bad decisions (ie yes Conrad Murray inject MJ but if he wasn't a drug addict to begin with he would still be alive today).

So think. If that had been MJ in the car u would've come up with a way to defend him before ever believing he did something wrong.  Even if you think you wouldn't. I beg to differ.


Think of it like this.....the way you see Jenn and her loyalty to jb (and how you questioned your other friends loyalty to that Japanese band/musician) like it or not....that is exactly how I see your MJ fandom.  I know it's important to you but I just don't get it.....you know those guys are important to your friends but you just don't get it. 

You convincing her biebs is bad will go over about as well as me trying to get you to see MJ is a pedophile.

Thanks for the advice Snoz. The next time I chat with Jenn, I'll make sure to stress to her that I AM her friend and she has no need to worry so excessively. I like her, she is sweet, even if she has a few issues, all people do.
Now to address the MJ/JB thing. If Michael had driven drunk and blown the breathalizer to show he was under the influence, I would not condone it. My mother was almost killed by a drunk driver in 1978. I was a part of SADD (Students Against Drunk Driving) in high school. Even though I love Michael dearly, I would be disappointed in him if he drove drunk. I am unbending in most areas of MJ, but I'd bend about that. (The pedophile thing is like trying to make me beleive the sky isn't blue.)
I don't believe I follow Michael "blindly" as you put it, and Jenn isn't "blindly" behind JB. She is no way as big a fan of JB as I am of Michael. But she does like him, that's okay with me. I don't like JB, but I don't bully or bash her about it. She wants to spend her money on him, have at it.
Now that being said, if MJ becomes an obstacle she won't overcome, well, we will part ways. That's for anyone, and I won't hurt, because I don't dwell or worry about people I've cut from my life. I cut you loose, you cease to exist to me. I see you on the street, you're dead to me, I don't see you, I pass you by. Its that simple to me. I've done it with scads of people, I no longer wanted to associate with. There's two things I won't turn my back on--God, and MJ. Everything else is negortiable.  :)
But Jenn and I are nowhere at that point. We talk, we laugh, we share recipies. We get on well as far asI can say. And I do want to continue to be her friend. Like I said, I don't mind if a person does not like Michael. Just don't get in my face, single me out and start whining at me about it.(And this is how every other person I cut from my life approached me. They tried to reconcile a few times, I was done with them.) All I want is respect and not to be treated like a second-class citizen because of one skinny man with a microphone in his hand.
Jenn respects me, and I respect her.  :)

It's good that you respect each other. 

You missed my point so I feel the need to clarify. I said my example was not about the pedophile thing.  The pedophile thing aside, MJ made bad choices regarding having sleep overs it invited the charges and even if he wasn't guilty it was a really bad decision to be alone in his bedroom with kids that weren't his... But, by your own admission you, you do not agree with this statement. I was equating that- the inability to recognize that that alone was ill advised behavior to Jenn not recognizing that drinking and driving is also ill advised

It's an analogy.

I currently have most of them via pdf but won't read them til the series ends because I hate spoilers...and I don't know where the series is going so even tho something hasn't been covered in the early comics doesn't mean they can't decide to bring it in now and apply it to another character.

If there were such a thing as an angels convention I would want all five but if I can only get three I want the big three.  One of my biggest disappointments is that I never met Farrah.  :\'(

They do this thing called the Hollywood Collectors show...I never go because it's quite expensive (they charge for autographs and pics....all mine are obtained for free- minus cost if the ticket to the venue but that's to see a q&a this is just celebs at a table signing and taking pics.


I would go pay for Charlie's angels. I almost went a couple years ago when they did a willy wonka reunion. All 5 kids were there but at $40 a pop it woulda cost me $200 to get a group photo with them. As much as I love willy wonka I couldn't do it.  I would spend that or more for the angels tho

I am going to it in April because my friend goes all the time. I doubt I'll buy any autographs but I think they are doing a Night of the Comet reunion so that could be cool.

Hollywoodshow.com  not all the attendees have been signed yet they have a couple more months to finish


Last time warped they did a love boat reunion & one for the Mary Tyler Moore show...as well as a few others.... They are big with the early tv show reunions.
I'm sure there's been a Brady bunch, a partridge fam, Walton's etc

I always think of Tia cuz Kim Richards has been there a few times

Reunion of old TV shows would be so popular, getting baby boomers to relive their early years, the nostalgia and all..and milking baby boomers for lots of $ too.

I understand about prices for pics and autographs. I have attended many sports collectible shows. Depending on how famous or good you are, they charge for $25 to $100 for a pic and an autograph. I can't afford that.

I have met many NHL hockey stars (the names would not mean much to you) I've asked them a few questions from 10 feet away, but if I wanted to get closer or have a pic with them, just too expensive. Years ago I won tickets to a NHL award show and my wife and I got to chat with Mario Lemieux for a bit, got 2 autographs and a picture (which I have lost or misplaced). Didn't have to pay for that one  ;)

I understand about prices for pics and autographs. I have attended many sports collectible shows. Depending on how famous or good you are, they charge for $25 to $100 for a pic and an autograph. I can't afford that.

I have met many NHL hockey stars (the names would not mean much to you) I've asked them a few questions from 10 feet away, but if I wanted to get closer or have a pic with them, just too expensive. Years ago I won tickets to a NHL award show and my wife and I got to chat with Mario Lemieux for a bit, got 2 autographs and a picture (which I have lost or misplaced). Didn't have to pay for that one  ;)


Yeah these shows charge 25 per autograph and 25 - 75 for photos. Most pics hover at 40 tho

The actors keep most of the money so I guess (since most of them aren't really working much any more) they prob need the money.


Part of it is not being able to afford it...mostly tho I have to believe that, given the nature of my hobby, I will run into most of these people at some point. 

That's why I'm only interested in the hard to get or obscure celeb.

I do admit...at comicon I paid for an autograph of the actor from Last Dragon because I love that movie. He signed my dvd for free.

Was gonna take my dvd to this Hollywood show in April then I remembered it was vanity not Appolonia in the movie.  Appolonia is going to be there but I don't wanna meet her. I need vanity lol

Oh. Purple rain? I never saw Purple Rain. It has Prince it in, and I can't stand any of his music. It's probably way at the bottom of the list of any 80s movies I'd ever want to see. lol

Yeah, you live in the right place for autographs.

Yvette Nicole brown.  I rarely take pics with her anymore I want to but I know she knows who I am and is aware we have a few. When I drop weight I'll get a pic w her again

I still get her autographs because I usually have something new to get signed

I rarely get autographs at mike & Molly. I have so much stuff signed by them.  But I do want to get Melissa McCarthy on a The Heat pic but I need to get Sandra bullock on it first otherwise it's just a waste of time.


Purple rain is the only prince cd I own. Lol I'm not a fan really but I did like let's go crazy I think maybe of all his songs there are only. 3 or 4 I like


The movie wasn't that great so you aren't missing much.

The special effects of Robocop 2014 were awesome!  However, I liked the Robocop 1987 better because of the violence  ;D    The second one had violence too but it felt less gratuitous.  :D


Honestly I thought they took too long telling the origins story of Robocop. I could've done with less training footage and more crime fighting.  And I didn't like that everyone knew who Robocop was in 2014... back in 1987 they made him annonymous. Everyone thought Murphy was dead and he, Murphy, was struggling with his lingering memories of his family...that was a bit more compelling.

I LOVED Gary Oldman & Samuel L. Jackson's performances in the new Robocop Movie...if I ever see it again it will mostly be to watch them.

The other song I can't hear anymore is you raise me up by Josh Grobin. A woman I was really close friends with died from cancer and they played it at her funeral. The minute I hear the first couple of notes I have to switch songs/stations or I leave the room. I don't ever want to hear that song again. Not ever.

I do hate Billie Jean but I can at least tolerate it when it's playing. I just never listen to it on purpose.

Other songs I hate....
I dunno off the top of my head few songs give me that visceral reaction

Lemme think about it I'll come up with some tomorrow

(for the record death metal, ska & opera) all genres that top country on my hate list. 

And , as much as I hate country, I can begrudgingly admit being receptive to a few songs. Not many but a couple aren't too bad and a couple I actually like and listen to by choice. But I still profess to dislike the genre as whole these songs are merely exceptions to a rule) I will never hear ska, death metal or opera song that I would consider listening to for any reason)

It will take place at the Dolby Theater on Hollywood Blvd... right next to the Chinese Theater where all the hand/footprints are.

I will not be in the area because I have to work (I think) but I typically stay away from LA during Oscars because it's really crazy...the streets are blocked off and it's impossible to see anything anyway.

Interestingly enough (well to me anywhere) the television festival I attend every year is moving to a new venue this year... it will also be at the dolby theater. I will be watching the oscars to see who is sitting in the seat that has been assigned to me. I am sure it will be someone really big because I have a front row center seat.  8)

Totally agreed.

How many questions will Dag answer correctly (on your thread) until she gets one wrong?
Will she still be allowed to answer questions after that?
Are others allowed to answer questions on your thread?

If I were you I would go out and get 2, throw 3 in the garbage, skip 4 and def watch 5.  :D



I really liked FD 1 & 2.
I thought 3 was a waste of time and I don't even remember 4 (I had to go look it up).
5 is an important film in the series. 

I am planning on, someday, re watching 3 & 4 - as I do a marathon of all 5 films. However I don't think it will happen anytime soon.

I got a new one for ya, unless it isn't, then it's a repeat question.  At this point, I'm too lazy to go back and see if it's been asked yet.

As the resident "Meeting celebrities and asking for photos and autographs (and getting them!) person in my life, is there any protocol in interacting with celebrities?  I'm usually too starstruck to interact, but just in case I meet somebody I really like, I'd like to be prepared.  ;D  Any suggestions on interacting with their escorts (not necessarily bodyguards).  I once "met" Nichelle Nichols (Uhura from Star Trek), actually was riding in an elevator with her and her "celebrity caretaker" at a Star Trek convention years ago.  But was too shy to talk to her.  :-\\

I rarely get star struck... Jodie Foster was a big one for me.. I made an idiot of myself and stammered nonsense at her until she politely excused herself!  LOL 


DO... know your celebs history.  The worst thing you can do is compliment them for something they never worked on....
DO NOT... call your celeb by their character name... even if they laugh it off they will always secretly hate you for it...some will out right hate you. 



Okay- usually if it's somebody I don't care about I just ask how their day is or how they are enjoying "X" event.  (with Nichelle I might have said are you enjoying the convention or well this must by convention number 80001 for you (pause) this year.  Humor is a great ice breaker.


I like to compliment them on their body of work.  I will choose something that I really like them in (if I can stay away from the obvious I will)....  for example. I was at Comic Con and met Shawn Ashmore (you may know him from The Following - which hadn't aired when I met him... I knew him from the X-Men movies.)  But, it was ComiCon... EVERYONE knew him from the X-Men movies... I did a quick imdb check.

*NOTE*  if you have time (ie not in an elevator  ;) )  then hop on imdb if you have a smart phone and check out what else you've seen them in... Nichelle Nichols I know from Star Trek. I cannot think of another role she has done so that doesn't really work (OH She was in Heroes)  maybe talk about an episode you really liked... oh I got interupted (at work)

so I met Shawn Ashmore and I saw that he was in a movie I had seen the month before. it was a small flick called Frozen. so instead of making him talk about X_men for the umpteenth time I said "you know I jsut saw Frozen. and I loved it"  he was excited because his buddy made it and he really liked doing it.  we talked about his process and prep for the  film etc. It was a good talk. 


so with Nichelle I might talk about her paving the way for women (or women of color on TV) or how fashion forward Uhura was... with those short dresses and high boots.  ;D


I may compliment what they are wearing or a new hairdo... or how I love that necklace....whatever gets me an in.


As for the handlers. I am always nice to them. They make or break your chances. If you are respectful and polite they will bring the celeb to you or, at least, not block you. If you are rude or dismissive or pushy...your chance is ulitmately shot before it began.


brand new baby celebs I usually ask them if they are enjoying the ride or if it's as fun as they expected. I like watching them when they are new because you see they are either really confused, scared or super excited.  If you watched the Ashley Judd show Missing that was on briefly on ABC- I had a cast photo of the kid from the show (the son who was kidnapped) he knew the cast photos had been taken because he posed for them but I guess they had never done a fan event so when I showed up with his cast photo he was super excited... he showed it to his mom and his manager  ;D

hope that info was helpful... I kept getting stopped mid thought but I think I made the point I wanted to make....


Small talk is the key... if you know a hobby or an other interest or passion they have then you can talk about that too... that's what they want to talk about.


another shameless plug  ;) 


I saw a documentary the other day.  It was about Miss Israel being raped weeks before being crowned Miss World in 1998.  Miss Israel wasn't there but the director, Cecila Peck, was.    The director is the daughter of Gregory Peck.  Pretty awesome right?  Everyone at the reception wanted to tell her about their fav Greg Peck flix.  and how awesome he was in this and that and what not.... To Kill A Mockingbird is one of my favorite pics and she was happy to talk to the people about how she has a pic of her sitting in Harper Lee's lap pic of her and Mary Badham "Scout"  on the set of the flick.... but I could also tell she didn't really want to talk about her dad. . . 


so instead of being the umpteenth person to say OMFG YOUR DAD WAS AWESOME!!!  I said I am glad you made this film and brought it to campus. Sexual Assault is a real issue on this campus and everywhere and hearing the testimonials...blah blah blah... I told her what I do and she was fascinated and we traded horror stories... and talked solutions. I was able to tell her what I liked about the film and how I felt about this one part... that was what she wanted to talk about...... 





I guess I'm just saying take the risk and put yourself out there. It's nerve wracking sometimes but it pays off in the longrun.  And you may find you really connect with someone.  I know it's hard but it's so great if you get it done... 


If you ever meet someone from Walking Dead Patty tell them you played a Zombie in a movie once. They would love that shyt!  ;D    (you don't have to tell them that the scene was cut unless you want to.)  ;)

Thanks for all the advice, it's insightful.  I just have to learn how to talk to somebody offline without disappearing into myself.  ;D

I thought of an add-on question about celebrity meeting.  If you run across someone not specifically at a meet and greet event.  How do you approach them?  My hubby and I once were eating at a local restaurant, when the Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback came in and ate breakfast 10 feet from me.  I wanted to get his autograph for my dad and brother (who are big fans.)  I, myself, dislike him because he's had some sexual improprieties in the past that I was not exactly pleased with the punishment he received.  But I would have talked to him, but even I knew not to just walk up to him while he was eating.  Should/Could I have waited outside he restaurant door to ask him?  I wasn't real sure.  I don't even like sports really. So I would have been faultering on the small talk thing (even if I don't get paralyzed talking to someone face-to=face).  ;D

Great advice about the zombie thing, I would not have thouht about that.

Glad you know not to approach the table at a restaurant. Apparently some people just do that  :-\\

My three no no places are inside a restaurant, inside (or outside) a bathroom (I have peed next to some of the greatest celebs!  ;D  and when there are children present.


Notice I said not inside the restaurant.  I will totally wait outside a business for a celeb to come out. I will ask politely for a photo with.  Some say yes (J. August Richards from Angel) some say no (Jeff Goldblum) but I try.
Two times I've done inside a business. Forest Whitaker was shopping for suits and Tobey Maguire was going to see a movie.  I break my rule if it's a big enough get.  Tho I still won't approach a table - not even for Oprah.

As u may have seen on FB my new hair salon is a salon to the stars.  It was KILLING me not to talk to Jackee, rocky Carroll and Jenifer Lewis but I stayed strong. I wanted to be invited back.  ;D

Not sure what MA rating means  :-\\  TV shows in the UK don't have a rating system at all.  There is a notional watershed of 9.00pm, so nothing unsuitable should be broadcast before then.

This question came about because we were discussing the suitability of certain shows for our teens.  A friend hadn't wanted her daughter to watch Breaking Bad and then found out she'd watched it at lunch break at school after someone else downloaded it.

TV 14 means suitable for 14 or above

TV MA means Mature Audience....meaning 17 and above


Breaking Bad is a show about drug dealing so you have you general bad criminal behavior and violence that goes along with that... there's probably some sexual content. It was on broadcast cable TV  (not paid cable) meaning no full nudity but probably some butt and side boob and sexual positions if there is sex.

I have yet to see breaking bad so I know not much about it.... I hear really good things but all from adults so we don't talk about the censorship content of the shows we watch... they probably said a few shyts, assholes...etc but never the f word. tho it could have been bleeped or implied

I was working that night (I had at job at UPS unloading and reloading for the next day's deliveries) those ugly brown trucks. That was the second worst job I ever had in my life. It was summer in Stockton Ca, it was HOT...the trucks had been driving around all day and walking into the back of one was like walking into an oven that had been used for baking the whole day. 

I got chastised and ultimately fired after 3 weeks....why?  because I drank too much water....they said I was wasting time.  Here was my routine.  Take a sip of water from a water bottle I had with me then place it somewhere near the truck...like by the tire or something.... hop into the hot ass truck..... unload the sucker which was full of new pick ups needing sorting and undelivered packages....once the truck was unloaded I would hop out, take a sip of water, walk to the next truck, unload it, take water, walk to the next truck and unload it.... it wasn't like I stopped every 5 minutes. I was dehydrated...hot and every night after I finished working (as bad as unloading the trucks was, loading was even harder...it was like a real life game of tetris and they gave you no time to figure it out... you had to handle x number of boxes in x amount of time and the whole thing had to look like a perfect cube or straight line when you were done...)  anyway- every night after work I drove off the property pulled off the road and threw up....every night.... I hated that job



My point is... I remember very clearly where I was when the OJ in the white bronco thing happened.... there was a tv on (because game five of the NBA finals was that night as well) so I remember looking up and seeing the game and the bronco chase pic in pic....but that's the extent of my knowledge of it...

I do know it happened on the 405 and I assume he was ultimately arrested at his residence in Brentwood.

I'll break it down for you

TVY means a show is suitable for all ages
TVY7FV means a show has fantasy violence and is suitable for children age 7 or older
TV14 means a show is suitable for those 14 or older
TVPG means that parental guidance is suggested for younger viewers
TVMA means a show is suitable for those 18 or older

We pretty much have the same rating system in Canada

C means that a show is suitable for children
C8 means that a show is for children over the age of 8
14+ means that show is for children over the age of 14
18+ means that a show is for adults
PG means that parental guidance is suggested for younger viewers

Hi!

How are you? I see you're one of the mods here. Maybe you can help me, what are some of the topics I should look into (and stay away from lol) on the board. It's all so much at once, I don't know where to start. Thanks.  ;)



the problem with this question is that people have very different interests. I'm more interested in topics about TV shows. other people like music... some people, for some unknown reason love, to discuss exactly what they were feeling every moment in every year from the time they were two until they were 19-22 and beyond.... 

my only suggestion is that, before you start a topic look and in that board 80s, 90s, 00's,  More Than a Decade, etc that the topic hasn't already been discussed.  you can always revive old threads rather that rehashing the same old topic that died long ago.

Not every season but I got further than you!  ;D


Kelly Clarkson - I pretty much knew she would win when she said "Ducka, Ducka, Ducka"

Ruben Studdard -
I was hoping for Kimberly Locke (she came in third)

Fantasia Barino -
Shoulda been Jennifer Hudson but coming in 7th was the best thing to happen to her career.

Carrie Underwood -
I can see why she won but I had no great love for her... I'm terribly tolerant of country and it irks me that I kinda gut sucked into and now like "Before He Cheats". 

Taylor Hicks -
god I hated this guy and really still don't understand how he got as far as he did... I think maybe the Howard Stern people who were trying to tank the show started in this season despite  the fact that they are credited with getting one of the worst contestants ever through to the top 7 (that was Sanjaya on Season 6)

Jordin Sparks - LOVED HER!!!! if you haven't heard her sing I Who Have Nothing stop what you are doing and watch it now!!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFd39ogKITE

I lived in fear that Stern's fan would win and Sanjaya would be crowned the American Idol for season 6.  A horrible tragedy happened the week Sanjaya was voted off. I've never really seen this correlation made anywhere but... It was pretty widely known that Stern was promoting "Vote for Sanjaya"    Sanjaya was eliminated on April 18th 2007... this was two days after the Virginia Tech Massacre. That means that on the 17th (Idol Vote Night) the Stern followers who had been flooding idol with votes for Sanjaya were doing more important things like hugging their familes and  watching the news and stuff...



David Cook -  I vaguely remember David Cook... I hated David Archuleta (felt like he never really connected with the songs he sang.  I looked at the contestants from this season and I barely remember them...


Kris Allen -
  I never watched any of Season 8


Lee Dewyze -
  for some reason I did watch season 9 and I thought Crystal Bowersox should've won


Scotty McCreery - Thought that dude was weird.... his voice was so deep but he looked like Howdy Doody.  Paleyfest did a panel on AI's 10th anniversary.... I wasn't watching Idol but I liked some of the kids I met so much I wound up watching this season midway thru.


Phil Phillips - didn't watch season  11


Candice Glover -  I didn't initially watch Season 12 but I got sucked in when they started advertising TOP 5 ALL GIRLS! that had me intrigued... I was happy with the winner.

Caleb Johnson - Didn't watch season 13

and I'm not watching season 14.

you can see plenty of pics of me in the Famous People thread to get the answer..... 


my avatar has zero to do with race and 100% to do with my love for Michonne on The Walking Dead.  My previous avatars have been Jaimie Sommers (Lindsay Wagner) from the Bionic Woman, Buffy Summers  (Sarah Michelle Gellar) from Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Jill Munroe (Farrah Fawcett) from the Charlie's Angels.

I have a million questions for Joss but he's so smart I just stand there and thank him.... no seriously... I've met the man like 5 times now but I haven't had an interaction longer than a minute because there are so many other fans trying to talk to him.... my one moment to shine I looked him square in the eyes and said... "I don't even know where to begin.  I just have to thank you....for....well....everything!"  he gave me that twinkley-eyed smile and just nodded  (kinda like this.....he's a nerd too so he totally got it)

With Oprah she was completely mobbed... the guys next to me were bombarding her with item after item to autograph....finally one of them looked at me and said do you want something signed?  um yeah jackass...move (well that's what I said in my head...)  but I just said yeah I was hoping too...  so he took my program and handed it to her... she said "Another one?" he said "no it's for her" I said "it's mine" she looked at me, looked back down at the item she was about to sign then before signing it she looked back at me (like a double take and smiled and winked at me....  I had been interviewed on our local news station and told them how I had been at the premiere of the butler but didn't get to talk to her and how I have been waiting for years to get a pic with her... I think (based on her reaction to seeing me) she saw that news interview... I basically got in "Can I get a photo and I love you" before she was off signing stuff for someone else....it wasn't my ideal Oprah moment but considering all the near misses I was happy to have it!!!


Rosie was an easy one.. I basically told her we were sisters from another mister!LOL  she collects toys as do I  and she was a total tv addict as a kid...so was I and we both loved commercials...though her recall is much better than mine... I can still do life cereal by heart and a few jingles but not on her level.... then we talked about how be both overcame our addiction to alcohol... she was on SNL the last night I drank... I blacked out 10 mins into the ep and was mad because all I had been waiting for all day was Rosie on SNL and I missed it... I told her and she told me how she had (at the time we met) just gotten sober maybe 3 months prior...  It was an interesting exchange...


Juliet is kind of an interesting one because she took our meet and moved it to a level that went beyond fan/actress... the first time I got an email from her I was like HOLY SHYT... but now I just email her whenever I feel like it and she responds to me....  funny thing... my friend Erica works at a movie theater in LA (it's one all the stars frequent) and Juliet and her husband Dev were there to see Gravity...she told them how she met them when I took her to a play they were in and they started talking about me and my Avon Walk and how they loved it when I showed up at a documentary screening of a film she'd directed... that was surreal cuz after that she's like let's go to dinner...and we all went to dinner.  Mostly with Juliet though I talk about the projects she's working on rather than, say, Buffy...because I know she knows I'm a die hard buffy fan but I see some of the weirdos (like a typical star trek/wars geek) and wonder how strange their conversations are....even for me... and I don't want come off as that kind of fan so I kept it non chalant and it seemed to work in my favor... I get invited to all her stuff so I'm happy about that...


I have met Yvette Nicole Brown (from Community) so many times (actually the whole cast of community and Mike & molly recognize me on sight now) but Yvette is where my heart is... she has been so awesome... the first time I was on set she hugged me and called me her twitter friend... it got to the point where I saw her so much (at different events not community related) that I felt like she might get worried I was stalking her... I mentioned it once and she laughed at me but then she saw me at 15 other events and was like hmmmm (well I interpreted it as hmmm) lol....  the clincher was  she posted on FB that she was coming to Santa Barbara to see Bill Cosby..... I had a ticket to that and I wasn't sure if she remembered that I lived in SB so I post on her wall "Yvette, I just want you to know that I live in Santa Barbara and I've had a ticket to see Bill for a while now. If we run into each other I promise I am not stalking you!"  after the show she came to where I was standing because she wanted to do the fan thing and try and get a pic with him... (he was gone so we missed out) but she hugged me and we talked about the show and Walking dead cuz she's a fan... I love it when she's on Talking dead,,,

my great Yvette moment came at comic con last week... I don't know if you saw this on FB... (and no it's not the meeting Melissa McBride (Carol TWD) in the street at SDCC)..,... it was when I was in an Orphan Black panel and I hear "Hey Tq!  hi!"  I turn around and it's Yvette.... it was one of those things where I know she knows me but I wasn't sure she actually remembered my name... now I know she does! and she sought me out so it wasn't like I was looking for her (for once!)

I've had great convos with Melissa McCarthy and the cast of Mike and Molly... my faves are Melissa, and Katy and Reno...they always seem so happy to see me... Billy and Nyambi too but they are more low key.  ;)    granted they are actors but if Paley ever does a mike and Molly event I think I can talk my way into the green room...  :)



sorrrry  I don't like to feel like I'm name dropping I just love these experiences soooo much....

Written By: snozberries on 08/07/14 at 1:16 am

A couple more...


my very first (and most fave) Paley event was for my fave lifetime show Any Day Now (wish that would come to DVD)  the actress who played Annie Potts mom was apologizing for her character because she played a women from the 1960s and then the women aged in the 1990s.... the woman in the 60s was racist and said some dumb things about her daughter's bff who was a black girl (they lived in the south in the 60s...obviously the friendship was taboo) anyway I stood up (after asking Chris Mulkey if he still roller skated cuz he was a guest star in the Charlie's Angels RollerDisco ep...he laughed cuz he knew what I was talking about...the rest of the cast had to have it explained to them then they laughed...  then I told Nancy that she didn't need to apologize because Catherine didn't know any better but when it came to getting Rene medical treatment Catherine put motherhood before race and it was a glimpse into the human being she had the potential to be....she was so touched by my comment she came over after the event and offered me a massage and dinner and basically anything I wanted LOL...

The big deal for me though was meeting Donzaleigh Abernathy.. she's the daughter of Rev Ralph Abernathy who can be seen beside Dr MLK in many pics
http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZwQal-Q9KoA/TffwuHDhtAI/AAAAAAAASHY/KdNlgu_PTCY/s400/MLK+and+Rev.+Ralph+Abernathy.jpg


anyway... I strew together something that somehow came out coherent and articulate...about her playing her mother to a character that was basically herself and how (in one particular scene they had shown at the event) I was sitting behind her watching herself play (essentially) her mother being watched by a little girl who was (essentially) playing young Donzaleigh (Rene was the daughter of a Civil Rights Activist - donzaleigh, daughter of a civil rights activist, was playing the wife of a civil rights activist)  and I was overwhelmed by how powerful it was to watch that already amazing scene but watch her watching it with all these deep layers of realism that made it even more powerful for me.... (I phrased it better than that tho)  anyway... she signed the item I brought to be signed.... you know I'm Athesist but she isn''t and after our conversation she signed it "you are an amazing gift from God" I knew that was the highest compliment she could pay me and I was moved by the sentiment of it... I treasure that autograph but I regret that I didn't have a camera then to take pics with the cast...


I met Lorraine Toussaint at Paley Fest this year...(she's was at the Orange is the New Black Panel) I told her how Any Day Now was my 1st ever paley event... and I only heard about it because an advisor at UCSB Film studies (my friend Joe) knew I was in love with the series and he'd heard the panel was happening and he hooked me up with a ticket...


there are so many more stories Patty but I'll only tell them if you are interested since I've been going on forever with this already lol

Do you meet up with your Paley friends and do other things as well?




I do see my Paley Pals often... outside of Paley events...

Steve is the one who took me to the Emmy's last year and we are going again (with two other paley pals) this year
I hung out with many of my Paley Pals at Comic Con

one funny Comic Con story from two years ago... Dom (you may see him on my FB page) is a friend I made at the Paley Buffy Reunion in 2007.  he lives in Montreal. We have gotten so close that he now stays with me at my friend (not a Paley Pal) Michelle's house in Burbank.  I've known her for about 20yrs

anyway- he decided that I needed to go to Comic Con so he bought me my first one day pass two years ago... on that day we were walking around San Diego and decided to eat a few blocks away from the convention center.... you have to understand that Comic Con takes up many blocks of the Gas Lamp District as well as taking over the whole 11 acre area of the Convention Center... it is a big party inside and out... there are 140,000 people there... running into someone you know in a crowd of 140,000 people is a small feat yet every year (I'm on year 3) I seem to manage to do so daily...

at any rate we are sitting on the patio of Bub's Burgers (O0)  having lunch and this dude is walking down the street.  he actually looks at us as he's walking by..... stops.... backs up and says "aren't you the two people who are always at the front of the line at Paleyfest?"  we are those two people indeed (someone on Twitter once said to a friend "OMG Jennifer (or whatever her name is) The Paley Lady is on Twitter.... I don't know if that was a good thing or not but I laughed...

anyway... that was July 2012....fast forward to Paleyfest 2013 (march) and the gang decides to go do our traditional pancakes at Du-Pars...if you ever get to LA go to Dupars and eat pancakes or French toast...do not order anything else... Our friend greg invites some guy... Dom and I are telling the story of Comic Con and how Tq can't go anywhere without being recognized and we get to the burger incident and the new guy looks at us and says THAT WAS ME.... we laughed because we had no clue...he's now in our group too...

we also go to movie premieres, dinner, movies, plays and just random things around the city... they are my best friends... as I told my mom... I FINALLY FOUND MY PEOPLE!!!!  because we are all crazy for the events and celeb encounters...hard to believe probably but there are people in the group worse than me with the pic posting and stuff...  :D

Whoopi
Sandra Bullock

Halle Berry  (cuz of the Call of course... I have a perfect opener to talk to her!  ;) )
Barrack and Michelle
I need to meet Tyne Daly again... 3x (maybe 4) and everytime my camera messed up so I have no pic with her...
All the Charlie's Angels...well I met Tanya Roberts and I hate Shelly Hack so basically just Kate, Jacklyn and Cheryl
Sarah Michelle Gellar of course... I got so close at the Buffy Reunion but she went the other way and I missed her.
Ive been in a room with Denzel twice but never actually got to meet him
Chris Rock cuz he makes me laugh

I'm getting a long time dream and 3 or (hopefully) 4 names crossed off my list when I go to the Facts of Life Reunion next month...so far Kim Fields is not listed as a guest but Lisa, Nancy and Mindy are so YAY!!!! 

I was at a panel with S. Epatha Merkson from Law & Order... I wanted to talk to her so bad but all my friends kept stopping me and having me take pics of them with Tony Goldwyn from Scandal and Poppy Montgomery from Unforgettable and Without a Trace  I missed my shot...


I am sure there are more but I can't think of any... oh duh...

Janet Jackson  (as long as we don't talk about you-know-who it should be okay  :D )
T-Boz and Chilli (TLC)


Tom Cruise (shut up...life long crush) and I missed him when he was on Kimmel .... one of my friends has a great pic with him and I know if I'd gone I'd have one too... I don't know if you can see it but maybe..... just maybe you can....  https://www.facebook.com/BookToBigScreen.net/photos/a.663444467057309.1073741929.179745968760497/663447483723674/?type=3&theater

More Paley stories please.  Doesn't bore me, I'm a closeted t.v. fanatic myself, remember?  lol

I DO like Tom Cruise, he seems nice (there was a kid when I was in high school that I just adored because he reminded me of Tom. lol)  I'd like to meet him someday as well.  Don't know that I'd be able to actually speak, but you know.  ;D

Denzel filmed in my little bitty small town (for that railroad movie that I keep forgetting the name of.) But I doubt he did autographs much (at least I didn't hear of anyone gushing as such..)

S. Epatha Merkson seems like a genuinely nice person, or at least the characters I've seen her portray make her seem cool.

I, too, adored Any Day Now.


Oprah did her show remotely in my school gym in Ohio in 1988.  It was really cool, but I couldn't get a ticket nor go hang out outside since I had just started working at the library back then. 


Whoopi would be cool.

That's awesome that you have your paley friends to hang out with.  I think if I ever make it to Cali, I could easily become one.  lol

The Oprah thing is really cool.  Too bad u couldn't get in to.

Do u remember what the ep was about? All I can think of was the aids one but I don't recall where that was set. There was also the race one.  I loved it when Oprah on location. 

Denzel's train movie was Unstoppable.  He probably signed a few autographs.  I know when I saw him for the flight panel he signed for a minute. I just wasn't fast enough. I made eye contact tho.

Despite the Scientology crap Tom is a sweetheart. He is genuinely the nicest man in Hollywood.  I am basically the only one of my friends who hasn't met him.  And I've loved him the longest.  What's up w that?


I will post some more of my tales of celeb conquest later this evening.

How did you first get involved with the walk for cancer thing?  I mean, as opposed to just taking donations and sending it in or whatever.  I like that your strategy for walking this year, starting early and going at your own pace.  I am in awe of so much walking.  Heck, I can barely walk through the grocery store let alone 17 freakin miles.

Did you have anyone walk part of the way with you (some friends or supporters)?  I think you had some one year.

Do you walk for other causes too?

after walking so far, how long does it take you to even want to walk your dog after?  :P

My first walk was the revolon walk about 4 yrs ago. It was a 5k (3miles) but I wasn't prepared for it ... It took me about. 2hrs to finish (I can walk 3 miles in an hour now) at the height of being in shape I could walk 4 in an hour.

A group of student employees at the pd had signed up so I went with them.  I had parked so far away that by the end of the day I had walked about 6 miles.  I was in pain and had to drive 100 miles home. It was a bad idea.

Then I heard about the avon walk in SB and I thought it's local and a challenge.

Inititally I started the walk 3 yrs ago, as part if my weight loss program.  I was on nutrisystwm and walking 2 miles a day (this was a few months after the revolon Walk.    I felt pretty capable.... I also had two officers at work who had beat breast cancer a couple years earlier. They were both diagnosed w/in a year of each other. I also had a cousin I hadn't seen since I was 14 diagnosed sometime after the second officer.

I lost 50lbs and was ready for the walk.  But not as ready as I thought.  It's brutal. I did 20mi day one and 13.1 day two.  I started out second on day two but was third or fourth from
The end on day two. 

It took me days to recover.  It took me months to be willing to walk further than from my car to anywhere.  So about 3 months later I started walking Effie again


Second year (20lbs gained back) I didn't do as well. Day one I walked 13.1 miles. They changed the route and t was rough for me.  I started somewhere near the front and was the last one to the 1/2 way point.  I has two sweepers on bikes with me.  They were supposed to bring up the read. I was walking so slow they got off the bikes and walked the last mile with me. 

The second day I knew I was hurting so I started early.  Maybe 15 mins.  It was not enough of a lead. By mile 9 I was last again. I tried to sit at a rest stop but it was closing so I had to walk on. The sweep can was right on my tail. If I didn't pick it up I was gonna get driven to the finish line.  By mile 10 I was done. Lunch wasn't where I expected it to be (mile 10 rest stop like prev yr) and I was still mad I wasn't allowed to sit when I needed to.  (I could've sat but I would've had to get in the van bc I was off pace )
I got so mad at mile 10 I just got in the van. 

Ppl cheering at the finish line but I was an emotional wreck. I didn't feel worthy and refused to cross the finish line.  I just sat outside the event area until I could catch a bus back to my car.


That experience on Sunday last year is what made me do my own plan this year. 
Basically I trained all fall and winter.  I sprained my knee at paley fest. I should've seen a dr but didn't. It still bothers me (and nearly brought me to the ground during the walk). then in April sprained an ankle.
In may I was ready to train but got bronchitis which stayed for 3 months. As you may have seen, I've been dealing w other illnesses as well so basically my training consisted of walking around at comicon in July and walking at magic mountain that one day in August. 

I was not ready. 

I knew I walked slow so the head start was so I wouldn't get swept up before I was ready.
I also really detest the zig zag route the walk takes.  It's necessary to get the miles in but for me it's like going backwards to move forward.  Making my own rules was dangerous (if I fell no one would know) but I had a cell phone and I'm a local so I knew where I was.

I stayed in the marked routes as much as I could. I just took shortcuts to get there.  ;)

I've done 3 different breast cancer walks. The other two are 5ks
I've done an autism walk
I've done an aids walk

Basically I do whatever cheap walks I can find.  Most have a 25$ fee and you have to raise 100


The avon is the worst for fund raising.  You have to do 1800 every year.  Plus it's 50 to sign up.
It's hard to find people to give you that much money year after year. That's why I do the 180 friends at 10$ ea thing.  If someone gives me even 5$ It's a big help.  I basically have to pay whatever I don't raise.  If I get to $1000 I have to cough up $800.  That's why I campaign so hard.  I always donate $100 to myself. I don't have much more than that.


I also forgot to say that two months after I signed up year one the cousin I'm closest to was diagnosed with stage 3.  She's still fighting it.


And this year two more coworkers, one officer, one admin, were diagnosed. And a HS friend announced on FB that she started chemo sept 2.


It makes me mad.  Since I started
Doing the avon walk so many people I know have told me they have/had it.  And them I think of all the ones who lost the battle (like Isabel)!

If you could change one thing physically about yourself what would it be?  If you could eliminate one health problem from your life what would it be?  If you could eliminate one thing from the world, what would it be?

YAY!!!!  I'm gonna answer in reverse order  :D


I have been on a boat but not for any extended period... so I don't know if I could say....sail across the ocean... I certainly wouldn't want to do it in anything smaller than a cruise ship

But... the thing I don't like about cruise ships is that there are sooo many people in such a small space.... I mean it's large....but it's small you know what I mean?

One of my lotto dreams is to charter a cruise ship (like a Disney cruise) and only allow people I know on it....ie.... you and James would be welcome... all my  friends and their family....

the other part of that is that all those barefoot (open toed) people would freak me out.. I would have to have access to my own pool or a water shoe rule would have to be in effect for the time I'm on the ship... but I figure having to wear shoes is a small price to pay for a free cruise tho right?

Wow....great question.... you know... I would show them the strength and the spirit of the human race.  show them the kindness and the camaraderie and the potential for greatness that humans possess....

this comes from this Spartan challenge I did for my birthday weekend.  A while back I did a 10K it was in Hollywood and basically it was a run/walk... those of us who were walking were to stay to the right of those running... lets just say there weren't a lot of walkers so all the runners were pretty rude and pissed off at me because I took up space and they had difficulty passing me during the congested areas....

In this Spartan challenge thing - I never knew it was going to be a mud run with obstacles so I was already pretty intimidated and regretting my decision to do it.... then there were all these super buff athletic types and me (and 20 or 30 other "biggest losers" most of whom were also fairly athletic)  anyway. I fully anticipated them to be annoyed by my presence and I was constantly trying to get out of their way... but--- like on the Avon Walk--- people were shouting words of encouragement to me as the passed by.... and... at the really challenging obstacles they set aside their desire to beat a certain time and stopped to help me... they pushed me up rocks... they supported me as we walked up steep hills. they caught me when I fell.. they checked on me to see if I was okay when I was taking a rest... 

there a capacity for human kindness that I think gets overlooked far too often in society.. and as people are warring, protesting and just plain raging against humanity I am always humbled when I see the depth of goodness within people. I wish I could bottle that and share it.

also, there is a particular energy that comes with conquering a challenge. I would like the alien to experience that...

then I'd show him the Hollywood sign... a sunset... a sunrise... some glorious sights and I'd take him on an awesome foodie excursion.  ;D

If you could change one thing physically about yourself what would it be?  If you could eliminate one health problem from your life what would it be?  If you could eliminate one thing from the world, what would it be?





Physically?  as much as I want to lose weight I would either fix my teeth or get "good hair" 

Health problem?  as much as the bronchitis/acid reflux/who knows what resulted in months of hacking coughing and vomiting was painful and annoying and I never want it again... I want to get rid of my physical pain... my back, my legs, my feet and my neck and shoulders. I am in chronic pain daily... granted... doing a Spartan challenge or the Avon Walk....not really helpful when you are in chronic pain but it seems rest and medication don't help it either so I just live with it... but honestly... every step I take is racked with pain... on a scale of 1-10 I live between a 8-12 everyday of my life... will this go away if I lose weight? I don't know but I hope so... assuming I actually keep the weight off this time.


One thing from the world.... can I just say disease and rid them all?  ;D

I would like to see an end to hatred and really brutal/nonsensical crimes. as much as I hate cancer and as much as I dislike the concept of war... I really really hate people raping/torturing/killing other people.  Get divorced... move on.... go find a punching bag... do something other than take it out on another human being... period.

TV: Michonne is obviously one of my favorite characters... I think she is amazing.. she is strong and resourceful and triumphs over all the adversity she has had to face...

Movie: Monica from Love & Basketball... I can't really explain it.. I just fell in love with that character... and I wish I had skill playing hoops!

Book: Trixie Belden... I freaking loved those books and I wanted to be a BobWhite so bad!!!

Play: Effie on Dreamgirls... There was something with that particular character that resonated with me... she's the dumpy one... all she wants is to shine.. to be seen for her talent and her own beauty but she is abrasive and pushes people away because she doesn't know how to temper herself so she loses everything but--- eventually they see she has value and that she is important and in the end she triumphs.... 

Song: I may not be a mother to anyone other than Effie but...  Supewoman by Alicia Keys... that whole "can do" attitude... you can have it all... it's a hard job but you got this mentality!  "Even when I'm a mess I still put on a vest with an S on my chest I am a Superwoman; yes I am"

What was your very best birthday up until now?  What made it awesome?

What would be your ultimate birthday present?  What would be a realistic awesome  birthday present?






Ultimate B-Day Present?  Wow... um  a giant party with every celeb I love and all my friends in one room... food catered by some of the best chefs and not one cheesy dish or mushroom (or anything else I hate) on the plate... and the night would be capped off by performances of my favorite artists...

Or a House... not a massive mansion... but a freestanding house with a decent yard somewhere in LA central to all the things I do there so I have a place to stay when I want to do things over several days in a row....

or LIFE LONG COMIC CON TIX... with VIP PASSES AND BACKSTAGE ACCESS!  And a room at the Hard Rock every year...


Realistic Awesome B-day Gift?  I got a 55 in Ultra High Def TV and that was great... but I would really love tickets to the Walker Stalker Con in San Francisco next month (that costs about as much as the TV...or Paleyfest) 


Best B-day??? Little known fact---or maybe people have figured it out but they never say anything about it... I almost always spend my birthday alone. I always do awesome things but, with my family so far away and my friends being good friends but not great friends... I learned long ago that no one is ever gonna plan something for me or give me a great party or whatever so I started finding great things to do on my birthday but I always do them alone.


my best birthday was one of the last ones I had with friends. We went roller skating and then hit up Red lobster for all you can eat shrimp.. I ate almost 100  :P    It was fun because I was with people and people showed up!


One of these days I would love to have a giant part (not as fancy as the one I outlined in the Ultimate present) but just a really good get together where I can see all the people I love in one place and be reminded how full my life is!

my fave reviews...

"A teeter-totter between O.K. and Meh."

"A flattened, bowdlerised project that has passed through too many hands"

"I've never felt more embarrassed for two actors (Foxx and Wallis), mostly because Foxx seems embarrassed for himself."

"It's a hard-knock life for cinemagoers who make the mistake of going to see this new version of Annie hoping for some of the Broadway pizzazz of the original. "

"You can "betcha bottom dollaaar" that this the most pointless remake of the year. "

"Leapin' lizards, was this a bad idea. "

"Two of my favorite people in Hollywood working together on an exciting reimagining of one of my favorite musicals -- what could go wrong? Sadly, too much. "


"It's clear that those behind this Annie remake wanted to achieve: A progressive new take on an old standard, just in time for families to enjoy during Christmas holidays. If only Smith, Jay-Z and Gluck could have focused more on delivering a good film. "

"The blame falls squarely on Gluck, who appears to have never seen a musical film in his life, shoots dance numbers with staid limpidity and zero sense of rhythm, and edits them in a way so as all the performers are barely visible. "

because they were trying to update it.... and show that the issues in the world have no color lines... a story about a little white orphan can also apply to a black one... 


basically they are saying it doesn't matter if Annie is white or black... it's the story not the actors that matter...


If they had done a better job casting.... I mean casting people who could actually sing... and done a better job on the script and if the director had better skills... it would've been a pretty decent film.

No one is complaining about it being a black cast....they are just complaining that it sucks!

The greatest rainbow I saw was a few years ago. It was, obviously, after a rainfall.  It was maybe mid morning early afternoon.

Let me preface this by saying....I detest Good Times....well that's not accurate....I wish there were a way to obliterate JJ Evans (Jimmy Walker) from the series!  Lose the clown and Good Times is a great show!

I thought Janet was great as Penny.  Especially in the first ep where she was BFFs with a tiny Kim Fields and Kim's real mom was playing Penny's abusive mother. 

I feel she was completely under utilized as Cleo on Fame....but that fame concert she did was my fave of the (what? Three) live concerts that aired on NBC.

I've seen almost everything else. 

I didn't like poetic justice...but I'm in a different place now so I should try it again.

I'm not a fan of Nutty Professor....no need to rewatch NPII

I thought Why did I Get Married was okay....why did I get married too was meh....but....she gave her best performance in one scene.  It was the scene where she smashes the glass table with a golf club.

Oddly enough---I learned watching the cast on Oprah.... That it was shot days after MJs death so the emotion she lays out is real and raw....iow she wasn't acting. 

No it's no secret I'm not a fan of MJs and I think he was guilty as hell but I can't dismiss that was her brother and she loved him so she  put all she had in that scene.

I didn't like it.... he was a buffoon and did nothing but cement buffoonish black stereotypes into minds of America.

Esther Rolle & John Amos agree with me..... technically I guess I agree with them but I didn't know they agreed with me until much later... I was pleased to find out they hated the character of JJ as much as I did. 


In her indignation over JJ’s role, Esther Rolle said:  “He’s eighteen and he doesn’t work. He can’t read or write. He doesn’t think. The show didn’t start out to be that…Little by little—with the help of the artist, I suppose, because they couldn’t do that to me—they have made J.J. more stupid and enlarged the role. Negative images have been slipped in on us through the character of the oldest child."


When John Amos left the show after failed contract negotiations, he said this about JJ’s character: “The writers would prefer to put a chicken hat on J.J. and have him prance around saying “DY-NO-MITE”, and that way they could waste a few minutes and not have to write meaningful dialogue.”

I have not seen it yet.  I have had several opportunities to attend Q&A screenings in LA but my work schedule would not allow me to attend.  Whenever I was deciding to see a movie here in Santa Barbara I didn't want to go to one as long as boyhood. If I'm gonna watch a 3 hr movie I want to do it at home where I'm comfortable


but I'm excited about the concept and can't wait to see it on DVD

When I saw the film back in August I knew it would an Oscar winner.


Boyhood
The 2014 American coming-of-age drama film written, co-produced and directed by Richard Linklater and starring Patricia Arquette, Ellar Coltrane, Lorelei Linklater and Ethan Hawke. The film was shot intermittently over an eleven-year period from May 2002 to October 2013 as Coltrane grew from childhood to adulthood;. The film premiered at the 2014 Sundance Film Festival, and was released theatrically on July 11, 2014. The film also competed in the main competition section of the 64th Berlin International Film Festival, where Linklater won the Silver Bear for Best Director. The film was declared a landmark by many notable film critics, with particular praise for its direction, acting, and scope. For me an Oscar winning film!

My niece and a friend are looking at going to LA and San Francisco in October.

Are Paley Centre events open to the public?  If so. where could I get a schedule so my niece could look into going to an event



As much as I love the Paley Center they aren't the most organized people on the planet... PaleyFest is scheduled for March 3rd and they still have only announced 3 panels and they haven't released the price yet.  The tickets go on sale Jan 20th.. the same day they plan to announce the full line up and the ticket costs...  ::)


For them... if they have any panels in October.... they probably won't announce them until September... after Fall Previews happen.  Rene is a great guy but can't focus on too many things at a time otherwise he gets frazzled (Rene is the director of programming.)

Best thing I could suggest is to get on their mailing list *you can sign up at paleycenter.org. (you can also view their schedule there).  In addition to panels they always have programming that's open to the public... screenings of TV shows during business hours.  During Oct they will probably screen Halloween themed TV eps....

They have a museum (kind of) upstairs.  Currently they have an exhibit of typewriters that belonged to famous people... it sounds lame but I saw it and it's really quite fascinating.  Who knows what they will have upstairs in October.  Check back with me  middle of Sept. and I will let you know.


If they want to go to see a TV show taped live October is a good month for it.  tvtickets.com is the best place to get tickets to tv shows.  Some tix that aren't avail there might be avail at 1iota.com

What has been your favorite Paleyfest event of all time?




Best PaleyFest of all time?? being that I've been to so many???  you would expect me to say the Buffy Reunion in 2007... that's where I met Dom (he's my partner in crime for PaleyFest and ComicCon... it's also where I made most of the Paley friendships I have now... and all the other Paley friendships I have that came later still grew out of that 2007 meet up at Buffy 10 yr reunion.... but still... not my fave.....

I think my fave was (for selfish reasons) Community Season 4... the panel did a live read at PaleyFest.... then they threw their scripts in the air and everyone taller than me in the front row got one.. (all my friends)... I looked up at the stage... at Yvette Nicole Brown and pouted because I missed out... by now she has gotten to know me and recognized me from the many events I attended in and outside of Paley... she smiles, and shows me her script which she hadn't thrown and slides it across the stage to me... in all honesty the only script I really wanted was Yvette's and to have her give it to me personally, by choice, that really made my year!!!



You didn't ask but my fave Paley Center event (there's a difference which I can explain if you want to know)  is the very fist one I attended... Any Day Now (remember that lifetie show with Annie Potts and Lorraine Toussaint?)  During the entire panel the woman who played Annie Potts mom was super apologetic because she played a racist.  When audience Q&A came around before I asked my question I told her she had nothing to apologize for... there was a scene where young Rene (the black child) hurt herself while playing in the house of her white friend(it was 1960s Alabama) and the white mother rushed the girl to a white hospital and demanded they treat her.... it was a moment where that woman ceased to be racist and was standing there as a mother trying to get a kid with a head injury much needed help... in the later years (the Annie Potts scenes) you can see the woman trying to be more accepting and open minded)  Any way after the panel when I was getting autographs the woman came up to me to thank me... she started massaging me and asking if I needed anything and I couldn't help but laugh... it was fantastic!!!

What was your worst experience involving Paley?



Worst Paley experience? 

Worst Panel:  Dexter Finale not the cast but the moderator sucked... she asked questions like lets play kiss (read f**k), marry, kill  and the proceed to ask every panelist which character they would prefer to do 1, 2, or 3 to.....  also... an audience member actually had the gall to ask Jennifer Carpenter and MCH how they managed to work together after the divorce...jen, still reeling with pain started to cry.. it was so awkward.

worst autograph experience: geena davis... she wouldn't even look at us or acknowledge our presence... being 6'5 or however tall she is... she effectively looked over our heads and not once did she make eye contact with anyone as she passed us.


worst omg youre an idiot wayne moment (wayne is an acquaintance but not a friend...) we were at a panel and afterwards Rose Marie (from dick van dyke show) was there.. she was about 99 1/2  :D    what I'm saying is she was old... deaf and feeble... she was in a wheel chair.  Wayne is the foremost expert on old Hollywood.. he knows every name, can id every person no matter how old they are now... I hang with him at the old tymey events because I can go Wayne who's that and he totally knows... anyway he knew that rose marie was friends with some old actress lady I can't remember... like totie fields but not her... anyway whoever it was had recently passed.... so wayne goes up to Rose Marie who just spent the evening laughing with lily tomlin (it was her event)  and he says I'm so sorry about _insert name here_  she says WHAT?  he says... repeat comment.... she says WHAT ABOUT HEr?? ?  in the mean time the person pushing Rose Marie's wheelchair is waving his arms in the stop talking now manner... Wayne doesn't notice and proceeds to tell Rose marie how her BFF had died... no one told her because they didn't want to upset her and you know... at that age they prob hadn't been in touch for a while...  needless to say that was awkward!!!



this year has been pretty sucky because the staff has been really rude to us (more so the security) and the perks from years past are non-existant. The panels are great tho.

Ideally my salary would be 75 to 100K

I would want to plan the panels that Paley puts on year round... I would get shows paley has never done...

Orphan Black
Game of Thrones
Dr Who (I'm not a fan but I'm not stupid... that's a surefire money maker)

I would also pay respect to retro tv. It happens now but not as much as it should.
First order of business... a Charlie's angels reunion.. Farrah may be gone but lets do this before the others pass too...

I would fire the current caterer and hire a new one... the food would be better... I'm not evil I would allow cheese dishes but I wouldn't allow every dish to be a cheese dish....

I would take care of the fans...
I would keep out the people who attend to get sigs for profit (we call those douchebags penarazzi!) but I would set an area aside for fans who want autographs and pics and ask the celebs if they want to stay an extra 15 mins for the fans... those who don't want to stay can leave and those who do can stay 

* I say this because I have seen security drag (not literaly but figuratively) a celeb off stage who wanted to stay longer because people wanted to go home at 9 instead of 915

Do you like to read about television shows too?  Or just mainly watch them and/or a retrospectives of a series (if it has concluded?)

Do you like watching television online or prefer live on a television?


I read some articles but not as many as I should... I don't like spoilers and I don't want other's opinions to influence my perception of what I watch...


I prefer to watch on a DVR on a TV... I dislike viewing on a computer screen and dislike streaming online... even if I'm streaming to my TV I want it from my satellite dish and not hulu or Netflix.  (but I have both and stream at work when I can) 

I tend to watch marathons live... ie Law & Order SVU I tend to get sucked in and stuck watching it live even tho I've seen the eps over a dozen times.

The only show I intentionally watch live (with commercials) is The Walking Dead... I want that show the minute it airs and cannot wait for later... commercials give me time to tweet and process what I just saw.

Which last episode of a completed (or cancelled) series would you write/rewrite?

hmmmm

I wanna get a finale or some closure for My So Called Life...

Obviously Angel needs an ending  I mean COME ON!!!! We left it in the middle of a battle of Good & Evil


King of the Hill... I wanted them to pull out on the bbq show Arlen... then push back in on the Hill's backyard showing a bbq in the future... Bobby is Hank's age... Hank and Peggy are old and playing with their grandkids... Bill and Dale and all the characters have aged .... and it's just a nice glimpse into the future... funny thing... Parenthood did this beautifully with a vinette of where are they in the future for all the characters!


I loved Dexter... I loved Parenthood.... I loved the Wonder Years... Loved Buffy... like Chuck

More often than not I don't mind a series finale as written... what I hate are the shows that are yanked off the air and not given a finale at all... the Glades comes to mind...

Do you have a VCR?  Is it still hooked up to a t.v.?  Do you have some way to copy a video to DVD?

If you were tasked with writing a sitcom or movie starring Jen Kober AND Melissa McCartney AND Yvette Nicole Brown, what would it be about and who would play what character?  You can add any other favorite actor/actresses/comedians at will.

Yeah I have a three vcrs....one is in my bedroom and two (for vhs to vhs editing) are in my front room.
I can (but haven't in yrs) transfer vhs to dvd in my bed room and have a computer program, that I havent tried out yet, that allows me to store my vhs on my computer.  I'm lazy...



OMG! That would be the most awesome show. I would add Cristela Alonso...

It would be a multicam 30 min workplace sitcom.  Something like Designing Women where we see them talking about......

No....I got it..... It would be a single cam knock off of the View...they are four hosts of a table top talk show. We see them in front of and behind the camera...some are friends some hate each other. There would be discussions about dating and marriage and then there's a 'commercial break' jen would turn to Melissa and say wtf is wrong with you and we'd see that. The whole thing is scripted. The drama comes from what they say on air and what they say in private. The comedy comes from how they say it and how they react. It would be catty but fun.  Kinda like sex & the city but less sex and more interactions.  And bc its set as a talk show the guest star options are unlimited.

Basically it would be to the view & the talk & the real what 30 Rock was to SNL!!!

;D

I am guessing that you are at Comic con now.  If you *had* to have a costume for it, what would you like it to be (AND realisticly, what would it probably be,)?

What show or actor would make a really interesting panel for you? (Has to be a show at least 5 years off the air)

What are some interesting costumes you've seen so far?

You are about two weeks early :D

I'm guessing you saw my recent posts on fb  about the sdcc schedule....they release the schedule (one a day) for the next few days...two weeks before the convention starts. It's the Wednesday after the 4th. 

Wed is preview night so no panels just an early peek at the booths on the convention floor and screenings of the brand new shows (full pilots) that don't air until the fall.

Thursday is the official first day and yesterday they released thurs' panel.
Today they released Friday's sched.
Tomorrow we get sats
And sunday we get the last day's events.

If I had to have a costume I would wanna go as Michonne ... Not a stretch I know but I'd get to wear normal clothes, I'd have a cool katana, and I'd have dreads again!!!

Or, considering what my hair looks like now, I may put on a polo shirt iwith a police badge on it. Put on a head set and cos play myself....I mean Halle Berry from the Call.  Oh snap. That's a great idea!!!  8)

What show or actor would make a really interesting panel for you? (Has to be a show at least 5 years off the air)

I wish I could get a redo of the firefly panel they did 4years ago. It was for the 10th anniversary of firefly!

Buffy/Angel (obviously)
Bionic woman/six million dollar man
Planet of the apes- escape from la
Wonder Woman -Lynda carter
Charmed

Movies: Galaxy quest, lake placid, et, back to the future, space camp and um....Harry potter

What are some interesting costumes you've seen so far?


Hmmm lemme get my crystal ball out.  :D

Some of the more interesting costumes I've seen in the past (besides some really good zombies!!!) was a pretty damn good Michonne.  A really damn good Jem.  Some with piping so he had his full on Doc Ock (from Spider-Man)  I am excited to see what there will be this year.

I won some cheap capes playing a water shooting game at magic mountain. I'm contemplating taking them and wearing one a day. But I'm not sure yet.  If you saw the cape I wore for the avon walk last year. It's like that. I have a superman. A batman. A green lantern. And the pink batgirl cape that I will save for this year's avon walk.



Is there comic books at comic con?


Not only are there tons of comic books at comic con. There are comic book panels. Panels about digital comics, inking and coloring, story boarding, crowd funding, distributing, comics of he past. Comics of the future. Side characters. Cross overs. And a bout 100 others over forgotten. 

It started as an actual comic book convention. We can credit George Lucas with bringing movies to comic con. Circa 76-77 whichever comiccon was before his explosion as a sci fi God to the geeks. I have heard stories about how he was at sdcc handing out comic books to promote a Little movie you probably never heard of. It's called Star Wars  ;D  can u imagine???  It wasn't until about the last 10 yes or so that it became common place for TV shows to be a big draw at comic con.


If you had a clone, what would you send your clone to while you did something else?

I would send my clone out for all the free swag so I could watch the panels and stay cool.  It hot in San Diego in July.

Or like on the Friday schedule there are two panels I really wanna see. I would send my clone
To one and I would attend the other.

Actually I would probably just use my clone to line up for me all
Night so I can sleep and still get a good spot.... Yeah that's the official
Plan. The rest of it will depend on whether or not my clone can function on Zero sleep.  ;D

Both PaleyFest and Comic Con you buy blind... Paleyfest will tell you 3 of the 11-15 panels they are planning but the other 8-12 panels you buy blind.. I figure if I like half the shows at PaleyFest I'm doing okay... plus part of it is just hanging out with friends....


comic con Is a little different in that you can pretty much predict what will be there... you're guaranteed the big movies and shows (except anything Marvel or new Star Wars because Disney decided to hold them for themselves this year.... Disney does a thing called D23 which pretty much their version of comic con)

but you know that Walking Dead, and Orphan Black and Once Upon a time and iZombie and Extant and Game of Thrones and Hunger Games and Orphan Black  and Ryan Murphy's new show Scream Queens and __________ insert any major pop culture phenomenon here...

Plus... the badge (which, to answer question #2 costs around $150 or $175 for 4days plus preview night... Wed - Sun) gets you on the convention center floor... Comic con exclusives bring a lot of money on Ebay (not that I do that but I should)  and also, theres an autograph area upstars....theres a mix of free autographs you have to win via luck of the draw (I can explain it to you if you want)  and there are tables where celebs who want to can sit there and sell pics...


Outside comic con there are several blocks that are like a big outdoor festival....essentially all of downtown San Diego partakes. It's a huge party... lots of free stuff to do outside. I tell everyone who asks come to comiccon even if you don't have a badge...the people watching is hilarious and there's never a lack of activity and free stuff to be found outside!


Tickets really hard to get we get lucky... but it's hard.....did you see that Big Ban theory where they were all in the living room on their lap tops saying "REFRESH! REFRESH! Refresh!"  its like that but you don't hit refresh... last year dom and I had gotten 4 day passes but not preview night... when the next round of sales came around... it's complicated but the tix go on sale (pre sale, regular sale & resale) at various times during the year... we got presale 4day pass... tried regular sale for preview night... he was in Burbank for paleyfest so we were sitting at my friend's dining room table all on our laptops while on speaker phone with our friends in Austin who were doing the samething.. it was funny but sad... we didn't get preview night last year.

Maybe we could go as a two-headed/siamese twin costume, and only have to have one ticket?  ;D ;D ;D

YES!!!!  It was my first year.. I had only a pass for Thursday.... I went down Wednesday and met Dom we had dinner and hung out then we went to comic con the next day... I only had a hotel for Wed night.. come Thursday Dom and hung out until 930... I knew then that I wasn't driving home to santa barabara  (4hrs)  and Effie was with a friend I had in San Diego.... anyway....

Friday was the Joss Whedon Day... they had a Firefly reunion...AND a joss whedon panel... they were back to back... so I didn't have a badge for that day :-(  but Dom did - one fo the disadvantages of not knowing the schedule before you buy the ticket...


so.... Dom and I went back to the convention center after we had dinner at 930 pm and we saw that people had already started to line up... Dom was going to get in line and I told him that since I didn't have anywhere to sleep I would just stay in line for him and he could go to his hotel and sleep... he was sharing with 5 ppl so he was sleeping on the floor but at least he could sleep.... anyway before he went for his hotel he stood in line and I walked to my car and got a folding chair (you know the bagged chair) that I keep in my car and  a blanket and I sat in line all night

Joss had been in a bar and someone tweeted or told him there was a line already... he was a little drunk (not bad just happy)  and he decided to come by and say high... he got mobbed but in a good way.... we were all hyped... my cell phone and my camera batteries were dying so I have just a few bad pics of it...

How did you find your new hair stylist?  The one across from the Kodiak theatre (I think it was. Can't quite remember now.)



she was across from the Paley Center but she didn't like the other stylists in the salon so she moved to around the corner from the Paley Center... now I can't see the line from her chair but I can walk to the line once I'm done...


I was sitting outside the paley center waiting for an event to start....


Imagine this as a 4 corner intersection

    Salon|      |Bank

        Beverly Drive

Parking|      |Paley



Anyway... I decided I needed to go to my car and then the bank so I crossed from Paley to the Parking Garage... then I crossed from the garage to the corner the salon is on.... she was at the corner by the bank... 

I had dreads then... they were in really bad shape.....

we crossed at the same time and met in the middle of the street. 

She stopped me and said  "I can fix your dreads for you, walk with me"  We walked to the corner where the salon is and she gave me her card and a few months later  (when it was too late to save my dreads) I called her and she has been working on repairing my hair ever since.... as you probably saw in my pic with Jordin Sparks I really need to go see her again... lol


I love her but she's too far and it's not cheap... so I don't go as often as I should.

Yeah, I don't imagine being in L.A., that it would be a Super Cuts salon (although I'm such a cheapskate that even Super Cuts costs too much to me. lol)  She does nice work though, so it is worth it.  Too bad that there isn't some kind of SUPER hair spray that lets you keep the style until you have the money to go back again.  I would buy a can of that spray  too. I hate messing with my hair.

the problem is "black hair"  is not really available in Santa Barbara so I have to drive to LA....  I wish I could just go to super cuts.    ;D


I once called a salon in SB (my fingers walked the entire phone book.... and the only salon I found was so busy they didn't take on new clients)  anyway I called a salon in Santa Barbara and, the question is so rare here I guess the girl who answered never heard it before... 


I asked if they do black hair

she said yeah... we do all kinds of hair  Blonde, red, brunette.....

I said no... do you do black people's hair


she said oh... no... we don't do that....  ::) 



considering she's in Beverly Hills she's actually kind of cheap... it cost me $85 +tip to straighten my hair... but, that time she made all those fancy loops or whatever... that was just a touch up a month later... that was $65.... plus you have to add gas and parking on top of it... so it's about $150 for one visit.


but she is really awesome... if I ever get rich I'm gonna pay her to buy the supplies nad come to me... or I'm gonna buy a crash pad in LA and see her when I stay in town  ;)

I don't want to see her before comic con because of the weather and the long hours I feel like my hair will just kink up no matter what she does so I may as well go to SD as I am and get all fixed after

but she is really awesome... if I ever get rich I'm gonna pay her to buy the supplies nad come to me... or I'm gonna buy a crash pad in LA and see her when I stay in town  ;)


I had a friend that rented a chair in a salon.  I went there on occasion, she gave me a discount and would do great work, and sometimes when she wanted to try a new product/process, I was a good guinea pig.  So anyway, a few years later, the salon was sold to a black lady, who did black hair.  She was really nice, and I was rather fascinated by the process of the things they had to do to that type of hair to straighten it/or make large curls.  All of these little tiny rods that were heated to darn near volcano heat.  I mean, these things were literaley smoking.  I had no idea!  Later on, my friend had opportunity to own her own salon, so I kinda lost my ability to watch the work being done on these ladies.

It is a long process....

When I was a kid I would be in the salon from morning to night..... Literally.

The process can take 90 mins -4hrs depending on what's being done.  Braiding and locking (dread locks) takes even longer.  But when I was a kid we were getting relaxers and Jheri curls and perms and stuff.

My mom would drop me off at 9 or 10 & I was supposed to call her when I was done to come pick me up

The stylists always made me wait while they worked on mrs Johnson or miss Williams. 
I would wait an hour before they started then I would wait hours in between. I'd get washed then told to sit I a corner while they washed someone else then I'd go under a dryer and wait a long time after the dryer went off.

It wasn't unusual for me to call my mom at 6 or 7 and one time 8pm to come get me.

Remember we loved a lot when I was a kid so this happened to every salon I went to. It got so I hated...no detested going to the salon.

One of the reasons my hair always looks bad or I wait until I can't stand it to go get it done is because of the torture I went thru as a kid.  Besides the waiting lets talk about all the burns I suffered  :-\\  and the actual yanking of hair by the roots in handfuls trying to comb out my hair.


Funny thing. I'be got a very low pain thresh everywhere on my body but my head. 

Anyway. Once I became an adult I either found better salons or they just don't do that anymore because all the hairstylist were kids like me and remember how it felt to be tossed aside for the adults who arrived after you and left before you.

So I decided long ago I don't really give a shyt what my hair looks like. Basically what looks bad to my mom is passable to me and when I finally get sick of it it's really bad. 

But, if I'm being totally honest, I hate looking at my bad hair days in my photo.

That's why I'm glad I found Shauneil (Chanel) because I actually like her and she never takes more than one customer at a time. Or she only over laps us at the very end so it's a a long process but not a lot of waiting.

I'm not a big fan of Jim Carrey Films... I'd say Doing Time on Maple Drive...it's before he was big... and it was a drama so none of the JC nonsense we've become accustomed to.


Of his bigger movies I only liked Liar, Liar.... Man in the Moon... and the Truman Show....again... he is less Carrey in those films...

Although I have no recollection of actually going to see this movie I know my parents took me to see Lady Sings the Blues in 1972  (I was almost 5...)  but I remember the film because (as I've mentioned here before) I was haunted by images of it for most of my childhood.  It wasn't until I saw the movie when I was 14 that I was able to identify the source of my nightmares....that's when my mom told me she took me to the movie and thought that she had pushed me down during the scary parts...apparently I peeked between the seats.


The first movie I ever saw alone was Bambi (talk about another traumatic cinematic experience!!!)  I was maybe 7 or 8  and I walked to the movie theater by myself, bought my ticket and went inside... I walked home devastated by that movie... I have only seen it one other time. Oddly enough it is still my favorite Disney animated movie but I never watch it...

In my honest opinion it's an angsty teen love flick...that happens to have vampires in them.... bella is an insecure 17 yr old falls for an older man (MUCH OLDER)  she is whiny and pathetic and really loses her identity just to be with the man she falls for... I think she's a horrible role model for young girls.  (I'm basing this assessment on my perceptions from the first film and the few details I know about the films that follow....)

I'm super anti goth lol. 

I like horror but prefer zombies to vampires. I haven't seen a lot of vampire movies that I actually liked.  For me Buffy is less about the vampires and more about the writing, relationships, acting and evolution of the characters....there just happen to be vampires amid a bunch of great  story arcs.

Re my love affair with Buffy....

I first saw the BTVS movie in the theater...,I thought it was lame. I've only seen it once since then. I may watch it one more time.  I think I'm shooting for every 10 yrs give or take lol.


Anyway...in 97 I had started my 3rd quarter of my first year at UCSB....I was a film major (film theory) but they introduced a new class much to my excitement!!!!

It was a TV appreciation class....technically it was a seminar...(a class at UCSB has 30-several hundred in. A seminar has about 15 ppl.

I was fortunate enough to get selected (although I was fairly vocal about my tv addiction and kind of
High profile in the film studies dept so the prof pretty much had me
On the roster before I knew the class was coming (or I was invited to participate.)


The other students were kind of frustrating be there were a few pompous pretentious film majors in the seminar. They were the "we're too good for TV types" you know if you find an indie film that stereotypes the artistic film type or the entitled Hollywood type...this was the class...and remember I started college at 28 so they were young and annoying which was a double
Whammy.


So I loved this class (it also got me watching ER!)

The prof...who I respected...said watch BVTS I was like 'are you kidding the movie sucked. Why would I subject myself to a series' she said watch...I did...I was instantly hooked.  I apologized and never looked
Back. I devoured all things Buffy and can say I've seen seasons 1-4 so more times than I can count. I've seen seasons 5-7 a lot too but I have watched them less...not because I like them
Less but because the storyline a are more intricate.  There are a lot of stand alone eps of Buffy seasons 1-4...even tho there's a big bad every season and the major arc of Angel becoming angelus in season 2 and his recovery season 3 it's not as intricate as the evolution of Buffy after college and softer death 2.0 and dark

wow... I don't know... I love TV so much it's like trying to choose between your favorite child or something.... 

but I really love the quality of the shows they are putting out now.

I love shows of the 80s Cagney & Lacey, Kate & Allie and Designing Women... 

I love my 70s tough chick shows...  Wonder Woman, Bionic Woman, Charlie's Angels...

But, as you may have noticed, with my love of Buffy and Michonne and Orphan Black... I really love strong female characters and the women of today are the strongest that have ever been portrayed on TV

Do you swim or bike?




I used to bike a lot.... since the back injury and subsequent weight gain I do not bike as much as I used to.  Fact I used to work campus security and would bike for most of my shifts 20-40 hrs a week .


I can swim... as you know I have a particular issue that makes frequenting public swimming pools extremely difficult and somewhat traumatic for me..... my goal in life is to own a home with an indoor washer and dryer (cuz I finally have one now but they are outside), a dishwasher and a swimming pool.  I suppose an outdoor pool would suffice but I wouldn't mind being rich enough to get one of those fancy indoor swimming pools....  and you know... I wouldn't be opposed to people who visit using my pool providing they wear swimming shoes and not flip flops!  ;)



My husband's cousin just did a Triathalon (run, swim and bike) for cancer research.  I can't even imagine doing just one of those, let alone all three.  ;D

Me either!!!!  I push it every year with the Avon walk... this year the walk is Sept 12th.... except for Comic Con I haven't done any long distance walking in months... I need to hurry up I should've started training months ago!  :o


I used to think I wanted to do the AIDS ride (it's a 500 mile bike ride from San Fran-ish to LA-ish) I thought back when I was biking a lot I could do it... then my mom moved to AZ 495 miles from my house.  After driving that a few times I realize there is no way in hell I could've ever ridden a bike 500 miles 


Fun Fact.... Shemar Moore does a bike ride every year from LA to Santa Barbara to raise money for MS... I have never gone to the finish line to meet him but maybe... if I'm off this year I will make the effort!!!



If you were able to get a free tattoo or a free body/hair/plastic surgery procedure, would you?  If so, what would you do?


free tat??? no....
free lypo? Maybe... lol but probably not. 
I'm not a fan of the lapband et al procedures so no.
Hair... if I could get that wig Danai wears to be my actual hair I would...
Hair... if I could get Rachel True's hair from Craft I would
Hair... If I could get Jordin Sparks Hair I would 
Plastic Surgery.... face, nose, brow, injections, NO
but if I could get my teeth done and it was guaranteed pain free I would...

I have a doosy of a question. 
I vaguely recall an episode of WKRP or Mork and Mindy or Taxi or something like that, in which the main characters encounter a lone office worker who has been doing the same job for about 20 years.  The worker is fairly certain that his bosses have forgotten about his existence and just continue to pay his salary out of unquestioning habit.  The main characters tell him this is no way to live and encourage him to stand up and be noticed.  He does, and is almost immediately fired.  But he is grateful and happy that he is no longer tied to the unrewarding desk job.    ....  I'd like to see that episode again, but I'm not sure what 70s-80s TV show it was...  Different Strokes? Facts of Life? Three's Company? WKRP? Taxi? or Mork?

WoW....that is quite a question.

I'm 100% certain it's not Facts of life.

It seems like maybe it could be an ep of Mork....it doesn't sound familiar and yet it really vaguely sounds familiar so I have to think it exists in something I haven't seen in years. Which leads me to Mork & Mindy.

It sounds too cerebral for 3s Co or Dif Strokes

Written By: snozberries on 09/01/15 at 11:22 am


What is a 'hurricane party'?



I didn't know so I had to google it....


from Wiki


Hurricane parties were formed by people living in the southern hurricane areas of the United States, especially in Florida. Events are held by people who, for differing reasons, cannot or choose not to evacuate during a hurricane warning, but instead "hunker down" as any good Southerner should. Hosts may also lack hurricane supplies, therefore they invite others to stay with them so as to share supplies and company. However, these events are usually more centered around the people and the socialness of the event, yet they are not necessarily done with diversion as an objective.
Another rationale for hosting hurricane parties is the expectation that power service may be lost for days or even weeks. As a result most perishable items, particularly frozen meats, will surely be wasted after the storm. In order to make good use of these items, grilling is an important aspect of many hurricane parties, as a way of "cleaning out the freezer."

At 5 I was addicted to new zoo revue. I would cry if I missed it
At 7 I was addicted to Ultra man
By 9-12 o was addicted to all the shows with strong women bionic woman, Wonder Woman, Charlie's Angels
Then when I was 14 I had Cagney & Lacey, Kate & Allie and designing women.

I have a doosy of a question. 
I vaguely recall an episode of WKRP or Mork and Mindy or Taxi or something like that, in which the main characters encounter a lone office worker who has been doing the same job for about 20 years.  The worker is fairly certain that his bosses have forgotten about his existence and just continue to pay his salary out of unquestioning habit.  The main characters tell him this is no way to live and encourage him to stand up and be noticed.  He does, and is almost immediately fired.  But he is grateful and happy that he is no longer tied to the unrewarding desk job.    ....  I'd like to see that episode again, but I'm not sure what 70s-80s TV show it was...  Different Strokes? Facts of Life? Three's Company? WKRP? Taxi? or Mork?


I wonder if this could have been an episode of the series (based on the movie) 9 to 5?  It had a few years success and then got cancelled then got picked up in syndication with new episodes.  Apparently Sally Struthers played one of the main characters, although I really don't remember anything other then the movie (which I barely remember that too).

A few other comedies that centered around office life were Buffalo Bill (starring Dabney Coleman) and some that had offices as main sets were: Herman's head, Moonlighting, Barney Miller, Heart's afire, Anything but love, Open House, The Drew Carey Show.

Could be. I for got 9-5 was a series.


I ask Jason and Robby because they watch a lot of 80s TV. Neither could place the episode but Jason was sure it's not Mork or money or wkrp because he's watched those shows recently.

Unbelievably there are 20 season of Power Rangers (in various incarnations) and various actors/actresses (some now deceased) who've played Power Rangers.

Here is the first black one (both in suit color and race.)  Walter Emanuel Jones (born November 30, 1970) is an American actor and dancer, known for playing the role of Zack Taylor, the Black Ranger on the hit television series Mighty Morphin Power Rangers

If I weren't going to bed right now (or more likely supposed to go to bed long ago), I'd go through this list of all the actors nd actresses that played, and would let you know an unofficial statistic.  But, I won't (right now.)  ;) ;D

As you know Willy Wonka is one of my all time favorite movies.

The snozberries scene ends with my favorite movie quote.

After veruca says snozberries? Whoever heard of a snozberries?

Wonka counters with We are the music makers and we are the dreamers of dreams.....

That's how I've always seen myself. A dream of dream and a music maker (but you know not really music...just imaginative) so I thought snozberries was fitting in that regard.

I never thought about the snozberry>schnozzberry>booger connection until Karen or Tammy brought it up a few years ago.  I just don't see it that way and I stick with my original imagery of music makers and dreamers!  :)

Funny story. Not really... Lol

I was working graveyards years ago. Like 5 or 6....and TBS had this contest for the funniest person. I watched every video because I was bored. Honestly...hens was the only one I laughed at. There may have been one or two that had a joke that made me chuckle but I busted a gut at Jen's

About a year later she was performing at a comedy club in Ventura. Ventura is a 30 minute drive from me. (10 minutes closer than Jeff lives to me).  Anyway it was a 7pm show on a Sunday. I left at 615... It was summer and I forgot about tourist traffic. Took me an hour.

I get there and the club which holds about 100 -150 had 8 ppl.  Seriously they're were all at one big table (or a couple of tables made into one big table).

She's like nice of you to be here so timely and everything... What's your name? I tell her she's like...okay and this is john and Jeff and Jackie and Joanne and Jessica and Jason. He's a whatever he did...what do you do!?!

I tell her and she says okay when I say me myself or I and talk about smoking weed I mean my friend! I laughed and said I was off the clock.

She does her act it was great. We talked for a while after.

The next time I saw her was in the same club it was packed. I paid for the first show she comped me for the second. Introduced me to her girlfriend at the time

In between these shows we interacted on fb a lot.

She finally after three years finally came to sb...actually she had been before but I missed her fb post. I saw it a day late but didn't realize it was a day late and raced overthere only to find the place closed.

Whe she performed the time I saw her it was in isla vista in a university owned bldg so I went sat in the back talked to her after and wound up buying her dinner.

I've seen her perform about ten times and talk to her weekly via the Facebook she's awesome!

I hope to go to events until the day I die. There's are plenty of old people at the events I attend. They just don't try for the autographs and photo ops. I can't imagine ever stopping that. Ha ha



Funny you ask about flying. NY paley is having their Paleyfest soon. dom got two tickets to Orphan Black and a friend of mine won tix to the Walking Dead premiere at Madison Square Garden. They are something like a day or two apart. 

If I were able to fly I would so be there. U know how much I love both those shows.

Is dependent on it.  Or if it means I get to marry shemar Moore. Lol

I'm trying to come up with some fascinating person but really I just wanna spend a  day with joss whedon and experience his brilliance. But I've been at a few of his in depth interviews and never asked a question because I'm afraid I'd have verbal diarrhea or that the question wouldn't be worthy of the man.

I really wanna talk to Halle Berry because of the call lol

Oh whoopi I'm always fascinated by her and would like to see if I could make her laugh


As for historical event I think I'd like to be a part of the march on Washington and hear the I have a dream speech live.

Thanks for asking about my dad. Yeah I have a few fond memories.


I remember when we lived in DC (he was in the Air Force) and used to come home for lunch when I was home for summer. I was in 4th grade. He would take me to the Potomac and I would climb trees and we would eat McDonald's by the water.  He always. Always. Would steal my fries.  When we were in Vegas in November, after the Diana Ross concert, I got Some fries and he tried to steal them. They weren't McDs but it was still a fun memory

He loved to laugh. While I didn't get my sarcasm from him I think I got
My love of humor from him. He loved a stupid joke and he loved to "get" people you know catch them off guard by saying something stupid and they thought he was serious. Oh wait. Maybe I did get my sarcasm from him but his delivery was different.

He hated that I was so addicted to tv and basically never understood how I could spent countless hours watching the same thing over and over and over again. Sometimes tho he would sit and watch with me just to spend time with me. He usually hated anything I watched but he tolerated it. Thrice. Exactly three times he genuinely laughed (uncontrollably laughed) at two shows he watched with me

1) Andy Griffith the one where Barney gets taken hostage in a cabin and the moment where  Andy comes in and Barney runs out the cabin made my dad actually howl with laughter.  The ep is from season 5 "Barney's Bloodhound" http://youtu.be/sSlV6QS4cuQ

2) Taxi "What does the yellow light mean". Nuff said!  ;D
http://youtu.be/lZOdd49a7vk

3) Designing Women it was the hee haw nightmare (aka deliverance-esque ep) Mary jo is "dancing" with one of the boys and he tells her how the hospital names his last kid for him "Fee Mah Lee" I started howling a second later it clicked for me dad that the baby's wrist band said female.    ;D ;D ;D
unfortunately I can't find this ep on YouTube

My parents always called me meisy or meis which according to google translate means lovey in Dutch. But...technically it's shirt for meisje which means girl..... Oh. My. God. My parents nickname for me is the equivalent of Fee Mah Lee.  I never made that connection before  :o

A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE CHEVROLET SMALL-BLOCK V-8.


Chevrolet's small-block V8 is a famous automobile engine. Nicknamed "mouse motor" (opposed to the big block engine, nicknamed "rat") for its compact dimensions compared to other V8 engines of the time, production began in 1955 with the 265 engine. By 1957 it had grown to 283 cu in (4.6 L), and with the optional Rochester mechanical fuel injection, it became one of the first production engines ever to make one horsepower per cubic inch. This engine was used to power the Corvette, and the Bel Air at that time. It would later be extended to other vehicles as well, and replace the old style 265 V8s. The displacement changed over the years, eventually reaching 400 cu in (6.6 L), but none caught on like the 350 cu in (5.7 L) small-block. This engine is still in production today at General Motors Toluca, Mexico plant (primarily for the GM over-the-counter Goodwrench powerplants), but is no longer offered in current model year vehicles since the year 2004. Its production numbers were impressive, with more than 90,000,000 built. It has been produced in carbureted, mechanical fuel injection, and electronic fuel injection forms.

From 1955-74, the small-block engine was known as the "Turbo-Fire V8".

Although Buick, Cadillac, Oldsmobile, and Pontiac also designed V8 engines (see list of GM engines), it was Chevrolet's 350 cu in (5.7 L) small-block that became the GM corporate standard. Over the years, every American General Motors division except Saturn used the Chevrolet small-block, and its descendants (see GM LT engine and GM LS engine) continue as the company's mainstream V8 design today.

The small-block was on the Ward's 10 Best Engines of the 20th Century list.

Chevrolet tested the small-block twice with no water and no oil at wide-open throttle. The first time it lasted an hour and 15 minutes and the second time it lasted two hours.

Major Versions

Generation 1

The original design of the small block remained remarkably unchanged for its production run, which began in 1955 and ended, in passenger vehicles, in 2003. The engine is still being built today for many aftermarket applications, both to replace worn-out older engines and also by many builders as high-performance applications. There were, however many minor changes made to the engine over the years; these changes are listed below.

    * 1955 - The first year of introduction in 265 cu in (4.3 L) only. As was fairly common for the time, no provision for an oil filter was included in the engine design.
    * 1956 - Oil filtration was introduced, using a sock style filter in a canister.
    * 1957 - The engine came with only front mounts, the side mount bosses were present but not drilled and tapped leaving its retrofitting problematic.
    * 1962 - The block's cylinder wall casting was revised to allow four inch bores. Previously, only certain years of the 283 engine (1958-1962) could be bored safely to four inches.
    * 1968 - The main journal diameter was increased to 2.45 in from 2.30 in and the connecting rod journal diameter was increased to 2.10 in from 2.00 in. This allowed the use of cast iron crankshafts as the previous parts were made of forged steel. The rod bolts were changed from 11/32 in. diameter to 3/8 inch. Additionally, the canister/sock style oil filter was now converted to use spin on filters. The oil fill location was moved from a tube on the front of the intake manifold to a cap on either side valve cover.
    * 1987 - The valve cover surfaces were changed such that cylinder head mounting lip was raised and the bolt location was moved from 4 bolts on the perimeter, to 4 bolts down the centerline of the valve cover (this design debuted on the Corvette in 1985, and Chevrolet 4.3 L the year before). The rear main seal was changed from a 2-piece rubber design to a 1-piece rubber design that used a mounting appliance to hold it in place. This necessitated a change in the flywheel/flexplate bolt pattern as well. Also changed were the mounting angles of the center 2 bolts on each side of the intake manifold (from 90 degrees to 73 degrees) and the lifter bosses were increased in height to accept roller lifters. The alloy heads for use in the Corvette still retain the non-angled bolts (center 2 bolts attaching to the intake). Also all carburetors were done away with and replaced by TBI (throttle-body injection) fuel injection that acts some what like a carburetor.
    * 1996 - This was the last change for the Generation I engine, and continued through the end of the production run in 2003; all 1997-2003 Generation I engines were Vortec truck engines. The cylinder heads were redesigned using improved ports and combustion chambers similar to those in the Generation II LT1. This change resulted in significant power increases.

SB2 and SB2.2

(Small Block/second generation) This engine was produced from 1996 to the present for racing applications only. The cylinder heads were redesigned and the lifter bores were offset. The valve sequence for each head was changed from the traditional E-I-I-E-E-I-I-E to a new I-E-I-E-E-I-E-I and because of this the camshaft was redesigned.

Generation II
LT1 from a 1993 Chevrolet Camaro Z28

See the GM LT engine page for more information on the Generation II small-block V8s, which differ mainly in their reverse-flow cooling system.

Generation III / IV
LS1 from a 1998 Chevrolet Camaro Z28

See the GM LS engine page for more information on the current family of General Motors small-block V8s.

Early Small Blocks

The first small block Chevrolet V-8 was a 265 cu in (4.3 L) engine that was developed in 1955 for the Corvette. Displacement and power eventually reached 327 cu in (5.4 L) and 375 hp (280 kW) (in prototypes) before the Corvette switched to Chevrolet big-block power. Although less powerful than big blocks, small block engines have remained popular due to their lower cost (including the cost of performance add-ons) and solid performance and reliability.

The 265 cu in (4.3 L) V8 was the first Chevrolet small block. Designed by Ed Cole's group at Chevrolet, it filled the power gap in the 1955 Corvette lineup, producing an impressive 250 hp (186 kW). The little engine went from drawings to production in just 15 weeks. Besides its compact dimensions, the small-block was known for its novel green-sand foundry construction process.

Dimensions were oversquare - 3.75 in (95 mm) bore and 3 in (76 mm) stroke. The small-block's 4.4 in (111.8 mm) bore spacing would continue in use for decades. It was a pushrod cast-iron engine with hydraulic lifters and a 2-barrel or 4-barrel Rochester carburetor. The 1955 conventional passenger car version produced 162 hp (121 kW) with a 2-barrel carburetor, or could be upgraded at extra cost to a "Power Pack" version conservatively rated at 180 hp (134 kW) with a four-barrel Rochester and dual exhaust. The first production year of this engine had no provision for oil filtration built into the block; however, an add-on filter mounted on the thermostat housing was installed during production. Due to the lack of adequate oil filtration provisions, the '55 model year block is typically only desirable to period collectors.

The 1956 Corvette introduced three versions of this engine - 210 hp (157 kW), 225 hp (168 kW) with twin 4-barrel carbs, and 240 hp (179 kW) with a high-lift cam.

    * 1955, 1956 Chevrolet Corvette
    * 1955 Chevrolet, 165 hp (123 kW) (2-barrel) and 195 hp (145 kW) (4-barrel)

283

The 283 cu in (4.6 L) V8 was introduced in 1957. It was a version of the 265 cu in (4.3 L) with a larger bore at 3.87 in (98 mm). There were five different versions ranging from 185 hp (138 kW) to 283 hp (211 kW) depending on whether a single carb, twin carbs, or fuel injection was used. Power was up a bit each year for 1958, 1959, and 1960.

The 1957 engine featured Ramjet mechanical fuel injection, allowing the engine to produce 1 hp (1 kW) per cubic inch, an impressive feat at the time. For 1961, an amazing 315 hp (235 kW) was available from this unit.

302

Chevrolet produced a special 302 cu in (4.9 L) engine for Trans Am racing from 1967-1969. It was the product of placing the 3-inch stroke crankshaft from a 283 into a 4-inch bore 327 block. This engine was mostly used in the first-generation Camaro Z28. Just over 100 DZ block 302 engines were used in the, unique to South Africa, Chevrolet Firenza Can Am. Conservatively rated at 290 hp (216 kW), actual output was around 360 hp (268 kW). This block is one of 3 displacements that underwent a transformation for the 1968/1969 period when the main bearing size was increased from 2.30 in to 2.45 in.

307

A 307 cu in (5 L) version was produced from 1968 through 1973. Engine bore was 3.875 inches (98.4 mm) with a 3.25-inch (82.6 mm) stroke.

The 307 replaced the 283 in Chevrolet cars and produced 200 hp (149 kW) SAE gross at 4600 rpm and 300 lb·ft (407 N·m) of torque at 2400 rpm in the 1960s. The later emissions-modified versions produced just 115 hp (86 kW) SAE net, giving the engine one of the lowest power-per-displacement ratings of all time. Chevrolet never produced a high-performance version of this engine, though they did produce, for Outboard Marine Corporation, a high-performance marinized 307, rated at 235 hp (175 kW) and 245 hp (183 kW) SAE gross, depending on year, that shipped with the Corvette/Z-28's cast aluminum valve covers and Rochester QuadraJet carb. Chevy also built other versions of the OMC 307 rated at 210 hp (157 kW), 215 hp (160 kW) and 225 hp (168 kW) SAE gross.

One of the biggest myths about the 307 is that all the blocks were cast with a very low nickel content. However, some 307 blocks, such as casting number 3970020 with suffix VxxxxTHA (x's in place for date), had 010 and 020 stamped under the timing chain cover indicating high tin and nickel content.

327

The 327 cu in (5.4 L) V8, introduced in 1962, had a bore and stroke of 4 in (102 mm) by 3.25 in. Power ranged from 250 hp (186 kW) to 375 hp (280 kW) depending on the choice of carburetor or fuel injection, camshaft, cylinder heads, pistons and intake manifold. In 1962, the Duntov solid lifter cam versions produced 340 hp (254 kW), 344 lb·ft (466 N·m) with single Carter 4-brl, and 360 hp (268 kW), 352 lb·ft (477 N·m) with Rochester mechanical fuel injection. In 1964, horsepower increased to 365 hp (272 kW) for the now dubbed L79 version, and 375 hp (280 kW) for the fuel injected L84 respectively, making the L84 the most powerful naturally aspirated, single-cam, production small block V8 until the appearance of the 385 hp (287 kW), 385 lb·ft (522 N·m) Generation III LS6 in 2001. * L79, L84 1963-1965; Chevrolet Corvette. This block is one of three displacements that under went a major change in 1968/1969 when the main bearing size was increased from 2.30 to 2.4 inches (58.4–61.0 mm). In 1965 the SS malibu choice of the 327/350 hp know as the "L79", with a aluminum manifold, holley squarebore carb, chrome valve covers, a huge 8" balancer, huge 2.02" intake valves and could only be ordered with a 4 speed trans.

400

A 400 cu in (6.6 L) small-block was introduced in 1970 and produced for 10 years. It had a 4.125-inch (104.8 mm) bore and a 3.75-inch (95.3 mm) stroke. Initial output was 265 hp (198 kW) and was only available equipped with a 2-barrel carburetor. In 1974 a 4-barrel version of the 400 was introduced,while the 2-barrel version stopped production in 1975. 1976 was the last year that the 400 was used in a Chevrolet Passenger car, available in both the A-Body and B-Body line. While popular with circle-track racers, the engine was prone to cooling troubles if cylinder heads without steam holes were used. they mostly put out 250 hp stock.

Later Small Blocks

This section documents the odd-size small blocks developed after the 350 appeared in 1969. Many of these basic blocks are variations of the 350 design.

262

The 262 was a 262 cu in (4.3 L) 90° pushrod V8 with an iron block and heads. Bore and stroke were 3.67 in (93 mm) by 3.10 in (78.7 mm). Power output for 1975 was 110 hp (82 kW) and 195 lb·ft (264 N·m). The 262 was underpowered and was replaced by the 305 the following year.

This was Chevrolet's second 4.3 L-displacement powerplant; two other Chevrolet engines displaced 4.3 L: the Vortec 4300 (based on the Chevrolet 350, with two cylinders removed), and a derivative of the LT1 known as the L99 (using the 305's 3.736-inch bore, 5.94-inch connecting rods, and a 3-inch crankshaft stroke).

This engine was used in the following cars:

    * 1975-1976 Chevrolet Monza
    * 1975 Chevrolet Nova

267

The 267 was introduced in 1979 for GM F-Body(Camaro), G-bodies (Chevrolet Monte Carlo, El Camino, and Malibu Classic) and also used on GM B-body cars (Impala and Caprice models). The 267 cu in (4.4 L) had the 350's crankshaft stroke of 3.48" and the smallest bore of any small-block, 3.500 in. The 3.500" bore was also used on the 200 cu in (3.3 L) V6, which was introduced a year earlier. (The 200 was a Chevrolet V6 engine based on the small block with the #3 and #6 cylinders removed).

It was available with a Rochester Dualjet 210 - effectively a Rochester Quadrajet with no rear barrels. After 1980, electronic feedback carburetion was used on the 267.

While similar in displacement to the other 4.3-4.4 L V8 engines produced by General Motors (including the Oldsmobile 260 and Pontiac 265, the small bore 267 shared no parts with the other engines and was phased out after the 1982 model year due to inability to conform to emission standards. Chevrolet vehicles eventually used the 305 cu in (5 L) as its base V8 engine.

305

The 305 variant of the small-block Chevrolet had a displacement of 305 cu in (5 L) with a 3.736-inch (95 mm) bore and 3.48-inch (88.4 mm) stroke. The 262 was considered underpowered for use in vehicles with a wheelbase greater than 110 inches, so GM engineers decided to increase the bore diameter from 3.671 to 3.736 inches (93.2–94.9 mm) and increase the stroke from 3.10 to 3.48 inches (78.7–88.4 mm) (from the 350). Some performance enthusiasts have noted a marked resistance to performance upgrades on the 305 because of its small bore, poor selection of aftermarket cylinder heads, and the relatively high availability of 350 cu in (5.7 L) engines.

Induction systems for the 305 included carburetors (both 2 and 4-barrel), throttle-body injection (TBI), tuned-port fuel injection (TPI), and sequential fuel injection (GM Vortec).

After 1996, its usage was limited to light trucks and SUVs as the Vortec 5000.

LG3

Years:1976-1980

Dualjet 2 bbl carb version with 8.5:1 compression.

LG4

Years: 1980-1987

The LG4 was the "low output" 305 cu in (5 L) (compared to the L69). It produced 150 hp (112 kW)-170 hp (127 kW) and 240 lb·ft (325 N·m)-250 lb·ft (339 N·m). The addition of a knock sensor for the engine management system in 1985 allowed an increase in compression and a more aggressive spark timing map in the ECM. As a result power increased for the 1985 models to 165 hp (123 kW) from the 150 hp (112 kW) rating in 1984.

L69

Years: 1983-1986

The L69 was the last true H.O. engine. The High Output 5 L (305 cu in) , featuring higher compression of 9.5:1 with heads of the to-be-discontinued LU5 Cross-Fire fuel injection engine, and utilizing camshaft and 4" catalytic converter of the 5.7 L (350 cu in) L83 which was used on the Corvette of 1982 and 1984. Complete with a 2.75 inch exhaust system, topped by a recalibrated 4-barrel carburetor, dual snorkel air cleaner assembly, aluminum intake manifold, aluminum flywheel, electric cooling fan, and furthermore a knock sensor including more aggressive spark timing, this engine produced 190 hp (142 kW) @ 4800 and 240 lb·ft (325 N·m) of torque @ 3200 rpm. In most cases, being mated to a 3.73 or 3:42 ratio limited slip rear axle and a T5 5-speed or 700R4 automatic, this engine provided its driver with a wide range of rpm to play in.

LE9

Years: 1981-1986

The LE9 5 L (305 cu in) was the truck/van version of the High Output 305. It also had flattop pistons for a 9.5:1 compression ratio, the "929" truck 350 camshaft for more torque, 14022601 casting heads featuring 1.84/1.50" valves and 53 cc chambers, a specially calibrated 4bbl Q-Jet, the hybrid centrifugal/vacuum advance distributor with ESC knock sensor setup, and lower restriction exhaust. The engine made 210 hp (157 kW) @ 4,600 and 250 lb·ft (339 N·m) @ 2,000 rpm.

L03

Years: 1987-95

The L03 was the "low output" 5 L (305 cu in) (compared to the 305 TPI LB9). It produced 170 hp (127 kW) and 255 lb·ft (346 N·m) of torque (190 hp (142 kW) at 4,400 rpm and 275 lb·ft (373 N·m) at 2,400 in 1993-1995 GM trucks). This engine used throttle-body fuel injection. The TBI uses a unique injector firing scheme, for every rotation of the engine, each injector fired twice.

LB9

Years: 1985-1992

Introduced in 1985, the LB9 was the first Chevrolet small block to have tuned-port fuel injection (TPI). It was introduced with 215 hp (160 kW) and 275 lb·ft (373 N·m) and varied between 190 hp (142 kW)-230 hp (172 kW) (with 275 lb·ft (373 N·m)-300 lb·ft (407 N·m) of torque) over the years offered. It was an option on all 1985-1992 Chevrolet Camaro & Pontiac Firebird models.

350
Not to be confused with Buick V8 engine, Oldsmobile V8 engine, or Pontiac V8 engine.

The first generation of Chevrolet small-blocks began with the 1955 Chevrolet 265 cu in (4.3 L) V8. But it was the 350 cu in (5.7 L) series that came to be emblematic of the Chevrolet small block V8 engine. The engine's physical dimensions (oversquare 4.00-inch bore and 3.48-inch stroke, 102 mm by 88 mm) are nearly identical to the 400 hp (298 kW) LS2 engine of today, but much has changed. It is by far the most widely used Chevrolet small-block; it has been installed in everything from station wagons to sports cars, in commercial vehicles, and even in boats and (in highly modified form) airplanes.

First usage of the 350 was in the 1967 Chevrolet Camaro and 1968 Nova producing 295 horsepower (gross); other Chevrolet vehicle lines followed suit in the year 1969.

The GM Goodwrench 350 crate engine comes in several variations. The lowest priced uses the pre-1986 four-bolt casting molds with two dipstick locations; pre-1980 on the driver's side and post-1980 on the passenger's side. This engine was produced in Mexico since 1981 as the Targetmaster 350, and now the GM Goodwrench 350.

ZQ3

Years: 1969, 1970, 1972-1975

The ZQ3 was the standard engine in the 1969-1970 Chevrolet Corvette. It was a 300 hp (224 kW) version of the 350 cu in (5.7 L) small-block, with 10.25:1 compression and hydraulic lifters. It used a Rochester "4MV" Quadra-Jet 4-barrel carburetor. This was the first block produced that featured the larger 2.45 inch main bearing versus the older 2.30 inch main bearing in 1968/1969.

The 1969 ZQ3 produced 200 hp (149 kW) and 300 lb·ft (407 N·m) with 8.5:1 compression, dropping another 10 hp (7 kW) in 1973. 1975 saw the ZQ3 at 165 hp (123 kW) and 255 lb·ft (346 N·m).

L46

Years: 1969, 1970

The L46 was an optional engine on the 1969-1970 Chevrolet Corvette. It was a 350 hp (261 kW), 380 lb·ft (515 N·m) version of the ZQ3 with higher 11:1 compression.

LT-1
LT-1 from a 1970 Chevrolet Camaro Z28

Years: 1970-1972

The LT-1 was the ultimate 350 cu in (5.7 L) V8, becoming available in 1970. It used solid lifters, 11:1 compression, a high-performance camshaft, and a Holley four-barrel carburetor on a special aluminum intake to produce 370 hp (276 kW) and 380 lb·ft (515 N·m). It was available on the Corvette and Camaro Z28. Power was down in 1971 to 330 hp (246 kW) and 360 lb·ft (488 N·m) with 9:1 compression, and again in 1972 (the last year of the LT-1) to 255 hp (190 kW) and 280 lb·ft (380 N·m).

There was also a later small-block engine called the "LT1".

L48

Years: 1967-1980

The L-48 is the original 350 cu in (5.7 L), available only in the Camaro or Chevy II/Nova in '67 & '68. In '69 it was used in almost everything; Camaros, Corvettes, Impalas, Chevelles & Novas. From '75-'80 it was available only in the Corvette. L-48's use a Hyd Cam, 4bbl Qjet, Cast pistons, 2 bolt main caps, "Pink" Rods, #0014 Blocks & #993 heads. Power output ranges from 300HP(gross) down to 175HP(net).

The L48 was the standard engine in the 1971 Chevrolet Corvette. It produced 270 hp (201 kW) and 360 lb·ft (488 N·m) with an 8.5:1 compression ratio.

The 1976-1979 L48 was the standard Corvette engine and produced 180 hp (134 kW) and 270 lb·ft (366 N·m). The 1980 L48 stood at 190 hp (142 kW) and 280 lb·ft (380 N·m) from 8.2:1 compression.

In 1972 the only way to get a L48 (4bbl V8) in a Chevy Nova was to get the Super Sport Package. This is indicated by the 5th digit in the VIN being a "K". 1972 was the only year you could verify the Super Sport package by the VIN.

In 1973 the "L-48" had cold air induction (throttle activated) and developed 190 hp (142 kW) (net). Beginning in 1974 the hp was reduced for several years until it reached a low of 165 hp (123 kW) (net) in 1975, before rising again.

L82

Years: 1973-1980

The 1973-1974 L82 was a "performance" version of the 350 producing 250 hp (186 kW) and 285 lb·ft (386 N·m) from 9:1 compression. It was down to 205 hp (153 kW) and 255 lb·ft (346 N·m) for 1975. It was the optional engine again in 1976-1977, producing 5 hp (4 kW) more. The 1978 L82 recovered somewhat, producing 220 hp (164 kW) and 260 lb·ft (353 N·m), and then 5 hp (4 kW) and 10 lb·ft (14 N·m) more for 1979. 1980 saw yet another 10 hp (7 kW) and 15 lb·ft (20 N·m).

L81

Years: 1981

The L81 was the only 5.7 L (350 cu in) Corvette engine for 1981. It produced 190 hp (142 kW) and 280 lb·ft (380 N·m) from 8.2:1 compression, exactly the same as the 1980 L48, but added computer control spark advance, replacing the vacuum advance.

L83

Years: 1982, 1984

The 1982 L83 was again the only Corvette engine (and only available with an automatic transmission) producing 200 hp (149 kW) and 285 lb·ft (386 N·m) from 9:1 compression. This was again the only engine on the new 1984 Vette, at 205 hp (153 kW) and 290 lb·ft (393 N·m). The L83 added Cross-Fire fuel injection (twin throttle-body fuel injection).

L98

    For the new Generation IV V8, see GM L98.

Years: 1985-1992

The new 1985 L98 added tuned-port fuel injection "TPI", which produced 230 hp (172 kW) and 330 lb·ft (447 N·m). It was standard on all 1985-1991 Corvettes (rated at 230 hp (172 kW)-250 hp (186 kW) and 330 lb·ft (447 N·m)-350 lb·ft (475 N·m)). Optional on 87-92 Chevrolet Camaro & Pontiac Firebird models (rated at 225 hp (168 kW)-245 hp (183 kW) and 330 lb·ft (447 N·m)-345 lb·ft (468 N·m)) 1987 versions had 10 hp (7 kW) and 15 lb·ft (20 N·m) more thanks to 9.5:1 compression. Compression was up again in 1991 to 10:1 but output stayed the same.

LM1

The LM1 is the base 5.7 L (350 cu in) with a 4-barrel carburetor (usually with a Rochester Quadrajet) in passenger cars until 1988. Throughout its lifespan, it received either a points, electronic, and/or computer-controlled spark system, to conventional and feedback carburetors.

LM1s were superseded with the LO5 powerplant after 1988.

L05

The L05 was introduced in 1987 for use in Chevrolet/GMC trucks in both the GMT400 (introduced in April 1987 as 1988 models) and the R/V series trucks such as the K5 Blazer, Suburban, and rounded-era pickups formerly classed as the C/K until 1996 which includes chassis cabs and 4-door crew cabs. Although usage was for trucks, vans, and 9C1-optioned Caprices, the L05 was also used with the following vehicles:

    * 1992/1993 Buick Roadmaster sedan and station wagon
    * 1991/1992 Cadillac Brougham (optional engine)
    * 1993 Cadillac Fleetwood
    * 1992/1993 Chevrolet Caprice Wagon (optional engine)
    * 1993 Chevrolet Caprice LTZ
    * 1992 Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser Wagon (optional engine)

L05 usage was replaced by the GM LT1 after 1993 in GM B-Bodies until production ceased in 1996.

In mid 1996 the L05 was equipped with Vortec heads used in the 1996 G30.

L31

The L31 replaced the LO5 in 1996 - known as the Vortec 5700. Known as the GEN 1+, this was the final incarnation of the 1955-vintage small block, ending production in 2005 with the last vehicle being a Kodiak/Topkick HD truck. Volvo Penta and Mercury Marine still produces the L31. The "MARINE" intake is a potential upgrade for L31 trucks.

I don't know the exact number of calls we get but we do get a lot of them... especially last year because we had a particularly hot summer and fall.  The calls tend to come in around mid morning to early afternoon.  Usually the callers claim the dog is in distress but you'd be surprised how often the dog is parked in the shade with water and seems very happy.  In 20 yrs I have only officers need to break into a car one time and that was for a baby locked in a running car. New mom didn't realize that she had locked her door and when she went to get the baby out of the backseat the back doors were also locked.


I have had to call a few dog owners... being on a college campus I can trace most registrations to staff or students and we have those numbers on file. I have never had to call animal control for a dog in a car but I do call them for dogs running loose on campus. (runaways or strays)

Hey Q-I have BTVS, Roseanne and Angel DVD series etc on DVD, but have been thinking about buying them in Blue-Ray. I know you have collected tv series too and was wondering, do you them in blue-ray and liked them? Mine, especially BTVS, are getting scratches, and I am going to have to replace eventually but just haven't tried blue ray yet. Also figured the quality was better, but wasn't sure.

Joss is anti Buffy on Blu Ray so I am too...


watch this video to see just some of the reasons why




https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F28XcxHxH6k






As far as Roseanne and Angel... I'm inclined to say no to those as well just because they were never meant to be on blu ray so I don't see the value of it.

The emmys are my favorite... I've actually been the last 3 yrs in a row!


I also like the oscars.  I don't watch the grammys or any music awards anymore. Once I stopped listening to contemporary music I couldn't be bothered with them because I never know who anyone is or what the songs are.


I have never watched the razzies

The emmys are my favorite... I've actually been the last 3 yrs in a row!


I also like the oscars.  I don't watch the grammys or any music awards anymore. Once I stopped listening to contemporary music I couldn't be bothered with them because I never know who anyone is or what the songs are.


I have never watched the razzies

Melissa McBride (The Walking Dead) her character had had one hell of an evolution and her work on season 4-6.1 deserved/deserves Emmy recognition for best supporting actress in a drama

Joss whedon needed an Emmy for writing for Buffy. He was only nominated once for Hush and that ep is so amazing it should've won.  The ep is one of the few stand alone eps. Even if you've never seen an ep of Buffy you could watch that ep and know what was happening even if you weren't fully aware of the character dynamics.

In answer to question one and two...

Tatiana Maslany (Orphan Black) While she's won a few awards she has been nominated for only one SAG (Screen Actors Guild) and one Emmy... she should have been nominated after season one and she should have won this past year when she was finally nominated. I assume she will win it this year for sure. (Viola Davis gave a hell of a speech tho so it's hard to bed mad that Tatiana was overlooked)


On that same note Viola Davis deserved the Oscar for the Help but it went to Meryl







Favorite award speech?

When Halle won the Oscar for best actress I jumped
Off my couch celebrating then I stood in the middle of the room crying with her. My mom called during I answered the phone and hung up on her.  I called her back once I stopped crying.


I had the honor of being in the audience this past year when viola gave her speech. She gave me
Chills and I was on my feet to applaud her by the end of it.

I would probably wear Ross or dress barn. As usual. Lol.

Seriously tho I kinda wanna go in a tux!  :D

It was lame. That dude is an idiot.  Sharon actually kicked him which, if he were smart he would sue her for, but he's not. I loved when she flipped him off

Also, someone probably got fired over it...the show aired on CBS, the talk is a CBS show. les Moonvies runs CBS and what's her name Julie Chen is married to Les....that dude was awfully close to his wife which means she coulda been harmed. That means someone is getting fired.

When did Charlie's Angels full throttle
Come out on DVD that may have been the last DVD I bought at suncoast  ;D maybe it was the first Charlie's Angels movie

Trying to think about the last time I was in an actual mall. I don't go to them often. We have an outdoor
Mall in Santa Barbara (2 actually) and o was
In one or both of those last month. But inside a mall
It's been maybe. Oh wait I was inside a mall to return something to hot topic. It was sept.

I hate hot topic. I bought something online that was a girls tee and I like unisex but the stores are soooooo loud. I never feel like a
Cranky old woman until I step into hot topic.  :P

Its been at least a decade since I've seen a suncoast. I loved that store though. We don't even have fye anymore :p

What CD do you presently have in your CD player? At home or in the car?

We do still have an fye. I was in it a few months ago


I don't have any cd in my car CD player. It won't let me use the Aux feature to plug in my iPhone to play my music.

I needed room for crap in my apt.  I took down my stereo set and put up a speaker set that I can hook up to my iPhone. I have about 500 CDs and no means to listen to them except transfer them to my iTunes and listen on my phone.

About 6-8 months ago I was in az visiting my parents. And I went to help her friend fix a computer issue. The husband is 85-90 and an and music collector. He was showing me his records and CDs. His fave hobby is making CDs for friends and he had an album I couldn't resist so the last cd I listened to on my road trip home was Shawn Cassidy da doo run run. An album I cherished I the 70s. If I'd seen the Scott bail album I'dve had him make that cd too.

I'm boring I just like solid colors. Browns, greys, blacks, sometimes blue.
My mother made me a comforter cover from two sheets they are royal blue with colorful polka dots on them. I hate it but I'm using it because all my other linen is in the hamper.

They aren't selling but I learned today that they rented it today.

The new family moves in this weekend. I meet them tomorrow


If I could actually afford the house then I would probably move somewhere else. There are things I like about the place and things I don't like. It's old and it doesn't have an en suite. I couldn't live somewhere without an ensuite. I need my own private bath.

About the only way I could love in the house is if I had their house and my apartment.

I did the Avon walk 4 yrs in a row.  It's a two day event. 26.2 miles day one and 13.1 day two.

The best I ever did was the fist year when I walked

17 miles day one and 10 day two

The next year I did 13.1 day one and 8 miles day two

Then I did 9 miles day one and 13.1 day two.

Last year I did 8 miles day one and decided not to walk day two

This year I decided not to walk it really hurts.  ;D

Question  What is the most important season of Buffy?

Don't forget about those stupid moving logs.
Question  What is the most important season of Buffy?


Yeah I hate the logs and the turtles.

Oh wow. Most important season of Buffy?

That's a hard one because you have:

Season one has really strong bookend episodes with Welcome to the Hellmouth and Prophecy Girl as the series pilot and season one finale but the middle eps aren't the strongest. But I feel like those bookends written by Joss of course, really set the tone for the rest of the series and for the most important eps thoughout the run of the show.

season 2 is where the show actually got its legs. You can see the evolution of Buffy trying to balance growing up with the adult responsibilities of being the slayer. You have the tragedy of her giving herself to angel only to have him turn on her. You have the strong second finale of becoming where she has to make the ultimate sacrifice for the greater good of the world.

Season 3 is important because it gave us my 2nd favorite tv writer Jane Espenson she had worked on Roseanne - (as had Joss and Amy Sherman Paladino of Gilmore girls)- but it wasn't until she started working with Joss that she really found her voice and style.  Also that season gave us Faith!

Season 4 gave us one of the top episodes ever in Hush and while there were some missteps there with the lamest of the 'Big Bads' (Adam) and *ugh* the addition of Riley, the season reintroduced Spike as a recurring character/series regular.

Season 5 is the one where Buffy gets a sister (a lot of people hate Dawn but I like her)  buffy has to deal with the death of a parent and she makes the ultimate sacrifice to save the world.

Season 6 gives us another important ep in Once More With Feeling and we see the dangers of addiction (Willow's Magic) and how sheeshty it is to live in the real world.

Season 7 really tests Buffy as a leader and really sets the tone for the series finale. I think it's the most underrated season. Truth be told it's the season I've watched the least but each time I watch it I wonder why it's so underrated. It's really actually good

Okay so I needed to run through those to see which is the most important season and I wanna say, gun to my head, for the season as a whole based in number of good eps and story arcs I think it's season 2 or 3 are neck & neck contenders for the title.

It's not really a show about zombies it's study of the human condition after the breakdown of society and how a group of people come together and fight not just to survive but fight to retain their humanity in this new inhumane world.

A varsity letter is given out to players of a sports team. It means they stayed on the team long enough or performed well enough to get a letterman's jacket.


Here's a pic of Michael J Fox in one. Based on the letter & the school colors I assume the pic is from Teen Wolf

I don't like him.  He came from y&r right? So how about a trade.  They can have him back if we can have Steve.  But he left cause he was following Jill Phelps.  People don't like her, actors hate her.  But our Jason is buddies with her.  Remember when he was quitting to move to Nashville?  Then, surprise!  He winds up on Y&R right when she did. So I doubt he would come back.

I don't like Frank & Ron at all.  Forcing Kelly & Michael as a couple twice.  That's from their Passions obsession. I like Roger but I hate Franco.  As much as I adore James Franco, who made the character, I've always been annoyed by this Batman-like villian.  And it was caused by a tumor, really?  ::)

I haven't watched it. I'll see if I can add it to my list someday.


The show was also one of Pete O'Toole's last gigs.  His performance alone is worth sitting through all the needless battle scenes.

Has the Buffy tv series totally outdone the movie?



with the very first episode!!!


I saw the movie in the theaters... that was one of the reasons I was really resistant to watching the tv series... The film was campy but it wasn't very good.. .the acting was over the top and it looked pretty stupid...

then a film professor i respected very much asked me if I was I watching the show.. I said no because I had seen the movie and wasn't impressed.  She told me to put my opinions aside and watch an ep. I did... I was hooked immediately... being 1997 and all I had to wait for re-runs to catch the pilot and season one eps... it was torture waiting for the filler (my first ep was the season one finale Prophecy Girl). 

But when I saw Welcome to the Hellmouth I knew immediately who Buffy was and what the tone of the show was going to be.. there would be humor but not the camp of the movie... granted I then saw Puppet Show and realized the series would have camp but well executed camp so i was okay with it.


Here's a quote from an interview Joss did about the movie...

Whedon felt that “it didn’t turn out to be the movie that I had written. Not that the movie is without merit, but I just watched a lot of stupid wannabe-star behavior and a director with a different vision than mine — which was her right, it was her movie — but it was still frustrating.”

Considering peoples experiences vary by class, race, region, and personal experiences I can't answer that question generically...


for me it was pretty okay. I mean I was a person of color in a predominately white area so it wasn't easy but I enjoyed myself.

I loved the music and the movies and the tv shows... I lived in California's Central Valley... It was okay. I wouldn't want to do it again.... unless I could do it knowing what I know now and make some serious changes in my choices...

When I was a kid I watched so many cop shows I thought I wanted to be a cop...

After I graduated HS I wasn't ready for college so I went to Community college and didn't know what to study so I got my AA in criminal justice.

One day I was watching General Hospital and a camera crew got caught in the reflection.. it was in that moment that I realized I never wanted to be a cop I just wanted to work on a cop show but in the mean I was studying crim justice.

When I got accept to a four year I changed my major.. I wanted to study tv studies but UCSB only had a film major so I studied film theory and learned to analyze a film to death...

in the meantime I needed a  job that would pay me enough to live in Santa Barbara so I started working for the police dept on campus because I had the AA I was able to get a job in dispatch and because it pays more than production assistant I kept the job instead of following my dreams after I graduated.

I lived in Stockton ca (a crime pit in the Central Valley) anyway...I was lying to supplement my income from retail with a side job.

Anyway I saw this job and called and they said I could deliver phone books I my neighborhood (which was a good safe neighborhood).  Instead they assigned me the most dangerous area...high gang activity about 8 miles from my house. 

I did it because it was a Saturday and 10 am.

I went to a few houses and dropped off a two books per residence. The last house (my 6th) house I stepped on the driveway and heard the sound of someone racking a shotgun. And I hear get the eff off my property.

I say I'm just delivering phone books. I see the shot gun pointed at me and this dude is standing on his porch aiming at my head.  He says get the eff off my property.

I back up and say I'm leaving. As I back out the driveway and back down the sidewalk I see a car parked on the street that had bullet holes in it. 

I walked back to my car shaking put the phone books in the back and drove home. I Called
The company on Monday and told them I quit. I tried to call on Saturday but no one answered.

A few weeks later I got a check for $1.30. I'd delivered 10 books and got 13 cents per book.  >:(

Worst part (besides almost getting shot)
I had to load my pick up with the books (a few hundred) when I started the job Saturday.
I had to unload the books into our garage (or I couldn't use my car for the weekend) then on Monday I had to load them back on my truck and drive them to the company and then unload them. 

Also with all that weight in the bed of my truck the vehicle was off balance and I lost control of the back a few times. Thankfully no accident tho.

What's the worst job you've ever had?  :P


The worst real job I ever had was working for UPS. I worked there for about a month in June also in Stockton one of the hottest areas in the valley. The truck to drive around all day in hundred plus degree heat and then at 5 o'clock at night I would have to unload the trucks in a hot warehouse that was also standing all day in hundred degree heat.

I was not very good  at unloading the trucks and even worse at loading them up at the end of the night for delivery. I will get yelled at every day because my way working would be to unload a truck get out get a drink of water going to the  next truck unload that get out of it take a swig of water and then start on the next truck my boss told me I took too many breaks. My brakes only consisted of taking a couple sips of water. But apparently hydration was not as important as I'm loading the stupid trucks I hated that stupid job and I threw up every night after I left work because I was so hot & dehydrated

I feel sweaty just reading this, LOL. Reminds me of the job I had at a book company. The warehouse/workplace was sweaty, hot, and people were grumpy. They were probably grumpy for two reasons: The pay wasn't that great, and the place was hot and stuffy.  8-P

Ugh. Delivering phone books. 

I lived in Stockton ca (a crime pit in the Central Valley) anyway...I was lying to supplement my income from retail with a side job.

Anyway I saw this job and called and they said I could deliver phone books I my neighborhood (which was a good safe neighborhood).  Instead they assigned me the most dangerous area...high gang activity about 8 miles from my house. 

I did it because it was a Saturday and 10 am.

I went to a few houses and dropped off a two books per residence. The last house (my 6th) house I stepped on the driveway and heard the sound of someone racking a shotgun. And I hear get the eff off my property.

I say I'm just delivering phone books. I see the shot gun pointed at me and this dude is standing on his porch aiming at my head.  He says get the eff off my property.

I back up and say I'm leaving. As I back out the driveway and back down the sidewalk I see a car parked on the street that had bullet holes in it. 

I walked back to my car shaking put the phone books in the back and drove home. I Called

His soul was restored by the Kalderash Clan (gypsies). They cursed him after he killed a young female beloved member of the clan. Restoring his soul was torturous because he felt all the guilt from his years of torturing his victims.

Anyway the curse remained intact for like a century.  Rules of the curse were that if angel ever experienced pure joy he would return to his evil vamp self.  Hence him turning back to evil (really evil) Angelus in season two (after he slept with Buffy for the first and only time. 

We don't talk about Cordelia  :\'(

Here's a question, What do you do or say when someone on the street a random person wants to use your cell phone to call somebody? Would you trust that person to give it back to you and do you think they will run away with it if that happens?

The only people I would trust are friends and family.

I generally don't offer up my cell phone to strangers....  depending on the situation I might make the call for them or I might say sorry but my battery is really low.



BTW... don't you still have a flip phone???

I've seen a lot of movies this year. (Oh and welcome back...stay longer please!  :)  )

I really loved Cap America Civil War
Deadpool was a pleaser!!!
Xmen apocalypse was alright it was kind of slow in parts
Conjuring 2 was good
Purge Election Yr was kind of lame but I liked Elizabeth Mitchell, Frank Grillo & Mikelti in it.
Jungle Book was way better than I thought it would it be
Independence Day Resurgence didn't wow me 
I didn't hate Batman v Superman as much as everyone else did but I saw major plot holes in it
Central Intelligence didn't amuse me at all
The Boss wasn't great but I was at the premiere so I didn't care too much lol

I'm sure I've seen more but they weren't that memorable.



I'm pissed I was supposed to go see a re-release of Willy Wonka on the big screen on June 26th and I was so exhausted from work I totally forgot about it.  >:(

Saw Civil War and DP and LOVED them.  I have no interest in BvS as I don't usually like DC movies (except Dark Knight trilogy), but I do want to see Jungle Book! And that is sad about Wonka, that would be a great opportunity!

DC movies don't even come close to Marvel...but I like them on their own level. It's kinda like comparing chocolates to chips.  Both are satisfying in their own way but when you want chocolate chips just aren't going to cut it!

I have high hopes for Suicide Squad. It looks really good...and after Deadpool was such a big hit they reshot some scenes to make it edgier.

Let me ask you a question, If a worker in a supermarket is working outside, should he be supplied free water when the temperatures gets above 90? What about you? Does your work supply you free water or do you have to shell out money to buy one? ???

I think it would be nice if the supermarket provided you with water but it would be quite costly to provide you with bottled water all day.  Also, if they provide you with water they would have to provide water to all the workers because it's not about you being an outside work vs them being inside workers... it's about no employee getting perks the others don't get.

You know you work outside so you should be prepared to bring your own water. Or, since it's a supermarket, you can buy cold water every day.

If they were to provide you water they would have to put a water station in the break room and if you were going into the break room too much that takes away from the amount of time you are actually working.

I know when I worked at UPS and I had to unload really hot trucks in 100+ degree weather I supplied my own water and I didn't mind.

I work in an air conditioned room but we do have a 5 gallon water dispenser for all the employees to use.

I usually bring my own bottle of water and drink that first, but when it's empty, I refill it with water from work through out the day.

1. Before the turnover, Pathmark had this small water refrigerator in a corner where they stored small individual cold water bottles and the front end manager always said when you come in from the heat take a water bottle, tell us so we can write it off on paper and that was that, it was a good perk while it lasted. Now either I can buy a package of water there and store in their dairy freezer when I need one or fill my bottle which I bring with me every day and store in their small refrigerator where they store the cold sodas.

2. That's what I do, I bring my own bottle and fill it up there, nice and cold.

Well Q I guess, but Q I don't want to BUY a package of water, water should be for free( unless you're a customer), I understand it's a different store and policy but c'mon for christ sakes this is just ridiculous! If it's hot and humid and I'm sweating like a pig, I don't want to go on-line to the U-scan and buy the water while I'm sweating like crazy, that just takes long, I want it available right away and convenient, if you know what I mean.

What I could do is for the workers is buy a package of bottled water and for me being a nice guy, the workers if they're thirsty, they can go into the dairy freezer and take a water if they'd like, since they don't have a water refrigerator anymore, that would be a good idea, packages of water have been cheap lately since the summer is heating up.

that would be nice of you but you should probably label the water bottles so other staff members don't think they are stealing it. 

And write your own name on a few bottles so you don't come back to work the next time and find someone drank all the water and forgot to leave you some.  ;)

Hey Q. :)

What would you do about bums that hang around a supermarket sleeping in a blanket? Just yesterday I saw a bum that was asking customers for cigarettes by asking to pay small change, then later on he was napping by an empty Rainbow store that just closed down in the parking lot mall a year ago. The property guy who cleans the whole parking lot, we saw him and he called his boss then preceded to call the police afterwards. I don't know if anything was done cause I saw the police car just drive around the lot and that was it. Would you threaten the guy and tell him the police are on their way? What are your thoughts?

I wouldn't do anything about him...... if he's not bothering anyone i'd let him be. If he's bugging customers I would ask him to stop...if he didn't stop I would call the police and let them handle it.
