Problems with links
With the move to the new location, I've found a problem with the links in the menu bar on the left of the page. They don't work properly from the individual blog entry pages. I will fix this soon. For now, please go to the home page, for the links will work properly from there.
Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause you.
UPDATE: I've now fixed the links so they'll work properly.

New home
Welcome to the new home for the site and the blog -- rreini.org rather than rreini.com. The old provider was no longer meeting my needs, so I moved to a new one. Unfortunately, they are making it difficult to impossible to move my old domain name, so I've started using a slightly different one. Most of the links should work, but if you find any that don't, please let me know.
As a provider of thoughtful comedy and satire, though, Tracey is still tops on my list. Tomorrow's episode will be the last of the first season -- hard to believe. But it goes out on a winning note.
One more thing: in case you missed seeing Tracey on the Tonight Show last Friday night (18th) -- she wasn't listed on TiVo or on TV Guide, as she was a late addition -- the show is available for a limited time on Hulu.

Tracey on Tonight Show April 18
Thanks to surfing the Web -- and the Late Night TV Page -- I have confirmed that Tracey will be appearing on the Tonight Show tomorrow night (April 18).

A few things
Well, three episodes of State of the Union have aired, and two more are left in this, its first season. If it were up to me, there would have been more. But consider that many comedy series in Britain run for just 6 episodes, so this is in line with that. Still, I hope there will be a next season -- a longer next-season.
I wonder what SOTU characters are everyone's favorites? I find myself partial to musical pharmacist Padma Perkesh and commentator/blogger Arianna Huffington.
My main work right now is creating the episode guide and commentary for SOTU. But I'm also getting ready to move this site to a new location. There will be a lot of work involved in updating the pages to use the new location instead of this one. When that's done, I'll announce where you can find it.
Undoubtedly, many fans of Tracey are also fans of the late Kirsty MacColl. I'm reading the new biography of her written by her mother, Sun on the Water. Don't look for it in your bookstore unless you're in the UK, for it's not available in the US yet. Amazon.co.uk has it, if you want to brave the extortionate exchange rate between the pound and the dollar. I just received it this week and am reading about Kirsty's childhood. She was taken from us far too soon....

SOTU Guide Updates Delayed
Thanks to a hard drive crash this morning, my update to the State of the Union episode guide for episode 2 was lost, so I'm going to have to rewrite it again from scratch. That wasn't the only thing I lost, either, but I'll spare you the details.

Guide to SOTU started
Now that State of the Union has begun, I can announce the beginning of my guide and commentary to the program. Each week, as the episodes air, I'll add to it. It's definitely a work in progress, so things may change.
I also want to send out birthday greetings to Tracey's daughter Mabel, who is 22 today. It may seem hard to believe, but it is true.
