JSB's "Adagio for Organ and Strings" is the melancholy little number that plays a time or two in Orson Welles' film version of The Trial.

So there.

7. My dear swag......

I'll just bet you're aware that today is JSB's birthday!

8. Thanks for the notice, Peggy.

I hadn't been aware of Bach's birthday. When I posted I had just heard the tune on the classical station and had remembered the film from my first viewing, which happened during my second-to-last blissful period of unemployment (three summer months in 1983 in Washington, DC), when I first saw the movie one afternoon at the National Gallery of Art.

Thanks for the note on Bach.

10. What does that mean, 'Ah, Bach'?

13. Well, since you keep asking...

In one episode of M*A*S*H, Radar wanted to impress this nerdish/hottie nurse, so he pretended to be an intellectual. One of the doctors gave him some catch-phrases to use when chatting the nurse up. One of them was "Ah...Bach.", with his hand on his chin in a contemplative pose.

16. "What does that mean, 'Ah, Bach'?" is a quote from that episode of a TV

program, an episode that appaprently looms large in your TV-watching life.

17. Ah, well...

""What does that mean, 'Ah, Bach'?" is a quote from that episode of a TV program, an episode that appaprently looms large in your TV-watching life." is a quote from the episode of Facts of Life where Mrs. Garrett catches Blair Warner terrorising three documentary film-makers in the woods.

18. Well, yeah. So?

[CanuckAmok]

19. Sew buttons.

[asthmaticeog]

12. Does it make me an idiot that I preferred

the more recent version with Kyle McLachlan?

Maybe I need to see the Perkins one again, it's been rather awhile.

[swag]

14. I don't think so.

Haven't seen the Kyle, but am aware of some of the many flaws of the Orson version.

The $180 device, available at www.bestbuy.com, is a modest-size box that connects to the U.S.B. 2.0 port of a Windows PC and can be plugged directly into digital cameras and camcorders, televisions and VCR's to record onto CD's or DVD's.

The drive is capable of CD write speeds of 48x and DVD speeds of 16x. The device includes One-Touch software from Honest Technology for capturing DVD video and editing it.

Not least, it is compatible with all CD and DVD formats, even double-layered DVD+R and dual-layer -R discs. "The beauty of this multidrive is that you can use any of them to transfer and archive your home movies, digital camera photos and videos from your camcorder," said Chris Neff, a marketing director for LG. Sounds simple enough.
