Scrabble Turns 60

My daughter Brooke and I love to play Scrabble. Occasionally my husband will get in on it as well but for the most part this is something Brooke and I enjoy together. The other day when I was out at Toys R Us, I saw this and was tempted to pick one up as I am playing on an original old school Scrabble set from circa 1960s or 1970s. I am done my Christmas shopping so I left with only the gift cards for neices and nephews. As Scrabble celebrates its 6oth birthday, I will contemplate getting for Brookes upcoming Birthday.

Case Closed

I remember as a young girl reading the Stephen Truscott story and it fascinated me. It was two years lady when I was 15 that I began to follow this story. It stayed with me over the years and it was the catalyst for a school project I did on child predators. I think these horrible tragedies were the fuel that ignited my career choice in working with the mentally ill. I love learning about the human psyche and profiling of these type of killers intrigues me. Today as I read this I feel some comfort for the Walsh family that this case can finally be closed and left to rest in peace.

"It's a show that has universal appeal because everybody can relate to having part of their lives hidden."

Showtime is developing a series about gay people coming out to friends and family. I have many friends that are homosexual and have discussed with each of them the pivotal moment that they came out and made the big reveal to loved ones. This show appeals to me and I like how they will also then chart how relationships are changed after the revelation.

Today Was A Mary Tyler Moore Day

I once shared a fact of life that pertains to Jewelgurl with a friend of mine.
I explained to her that for the most part, I lead a fairly charmed life and things usually run fairly smoothly during the course of my day. However, every once in a while the Karma Gods want to play little tricks on me and when they do.......they make it a day from hell from beginning to end.
So what I am trying to say is that when I am having a bad day it never usually turns around until the light of a new day. Sometimes I want to jump up and down and scream, "Okay you win" and then go to bed until tomorrow arrives.
My friend told me that is what she calls "A Mary Tyler Moore Day" as there was an episode about that very thing.
I won't give you every sorted dirty detail of my day but I will share my particularly frustrating morning.
I had to get up very early this morning to run an errand with my husband to get his car fixed and I had planned on going to the gym after I dropped him off back at home. When I arrive at the gym, I realized that I forgot my running shoes in my gym bag. No problemo!!
I drove back home and got my shoes.
After the gym I decided to go to Sears to pick up my latest order and when I get there after waiting in line for 5 minutes I realize that I don't have my Sears card as I just changed wallets. No problemo!!!
I drove home and I got my card. While I am getting back into my car to return to Sears I realize that I left my Winter boots at the gym and am still wearing my running shoes.
I decide to return to the gym to get my boots and then onto Sears to once again pick up my order. Of course I have to wait in line again and of course I have to be behind the most annoying woman who is trying to pull the most pathetic scam I have seen in ages.
She has apparently just bought a Sony Blue Ray machine from Sears and has decided to present them with her receipt and show them a flyer from Walmart that has a Sony Blue Ray machine at a much lower price. She is requesting them to price match.
The Sears retail lady explains that there is no model number or any type of detail to show that they are the same machine. She explains to the lady if you can present me with more detail and info then we will honor the price match. The customer becomes quite annoyed and says, "Well how many models of Sony DVD machines are there. I shouldn't have to do that. You should have the model number on the receipt, blah,blah,blah."
It is at this point I decide to offer my 2 cents and I say there are quite a few different models of Sony Blue Ray machines with various price points and that the onus is on the lady to provide the details for Sears to honor the price match. The lady then turns to me and says "What does this matter to you?" All I am thinking is......." I am just trying to speed you along so I can get my my bloody order and go home." Instead I say, "Because what you are doing is wrong and I you are being totally unreasonable." She picked up her flyer and receipt and out of the store she went. I eventually picked up my order and made my way home to more of my horrible no good very bad day.
I shared with my husband that I was having a Mary Tyler Moore Day and he very sweetly asked, " Are you turning the world on with your smile?"
Not quite!!!

The Stories Behind Hollywood Studio Logos

Have you ever wondered why the DreamWorks logo shows a boy fishing on the moon? Or who modeled as the "torch lady" for the Columbia Pictures logo?

In all 3 X-Men movies, the X in 20th Century Fox stayed lit as the logo faded.
In some of the 90's Batman movies turned the WB shield into the Bat-logo.
Shark Tale does a fun little bit with the Dreamworks kid. Since the movie takes place in the sea, the kid casts his line and the worm on the hook screams for dear life and starts the movie.

She was a regular on 7th Heaven (she played Ginger), Lois & Clark (she played Ellen Lane), and Port Charles.

RIP: Nina Foch

Nina Foch is known to me from her role as Ducky's mother on the show NCIS. However, she also starred in several vintage horror movies back as early as the early 40s, such as Return of the Vampire and Cry of the Werewolf. She also had the honor of being the very first murder victim on Columbo, in 1968's Prescription: Murder (done in by hubby Gene Barry). She also appeared in several other TV shows, such as Bull, Just Shoot Me, Dharma & Greg, Murder She Wrote, L.A. Law, Hunter, Lou Grant, Barnaby Jones, Hawaii Five-0, That Girl, and a ton of others. She appeared in Spartacus, The Ten Commandments, An American in Paris and others. She was even the associate director on The Diary of Anne Frank.
