Emergency phone replacement time

Tuesday, February 7th, 2012

Not an emergency phone that needs replacement, but rather an acknowledgement that I’ve waited to replace my old phone for so long that the battery life seems to have fallen off a cliff. The last two weeks or so, it’s been degraded enough that an 8 hour workday, without any usage, was enough to put the charge level into the red. But this morning, I’m at best 6 hours into a charge, and it’s already below 25%.

And now it just started to reboot itself for no obvious reason.

Reshooting the Past

Friday, August 13th, 2010

I’m watching Y&R today, and I realize, the ‘flashback’ I’m watching has to be new.  When Hope died originally, the actor was the other Adam.  I’ve always wondered what they did for a flashback, if the actor had changed.  It seems like it would only work for recent flashbacks.  You can’t reshoot Victor at 35 without way more effects budget than I suspect they have.

UPDATE:  Oh wow.  They reshot scenes with new Heather as well.  It’s going to be a whole episode of reshoots, methinks….
