HUMMING/SINGING THE GLORY OF LOVE

Bruce Kimmel Photograph bk's notes

Well, dear readers, it is Friday, another end of the work-week and I have just been told that I will be continuing on at least through the end of next week. So, I suppose that is a good thing, money-wise. As of the 13th of December, I shall be back writing full time, writing like a house afire (no mean feat), writing until the cows come home. Isn’t that exciting? Isn’t that just too too?

I was at work until eight last night and I must be back shortly, so again I apologize for having to cut these here notes short. Have you ever awakened and had a song in your head that you then continued to hum and/or sing all the live-long day because you are unable to extricate said song from said head? That is what happened to me this fine morning, and I have been humming/singing ever since – “You’ve got to give a little, take a little, and let your poor heart break a little, that’s the story of, that’s the glory of love.” What a wonderful song that is and I do think I may just have to have my close personal friend Guy Haines record it some fine day. The first time I ever heard that song was when I saw the motion picture entitled Guess Who’s Coming To Dinner, and it was love at first hear. “As long as there’s the two of us, we’ve got the world and all its charms. And when the world is through with us, we’ve got each other’s arms”. Yes, I shall be humming/singing The Glory of Love all the livelong day. Feel free to join me in a chorus or two should you be so inclined.

Don’t forget, we have a big weekend coming up here at haineshisway.com. First off, at some point today or early tomorrow we have the Max Preeo Unseemly Interview going up. Tomorrow I answer all your excellent questions and we have an Unseemly Triva contest, and then Sunday we have a big bash here at haineshisway.com. Monday, of course, is our Unseemly Live Chat. So, this is the place to be, there is no other place to be and you will simply not be if you are not here. After all, we are the ginchiest.

Well, why don’t we all click on the Unseemly Button below because I must cut these here notes short and vamoose or, at the very least, vamaardvark.

Have I mentioned that I have been humming/singing The Glory of Love constantly? Have I mentioned that I must cut these here notes short? Have I mentioned that we’re having a big bash here on Sunday?

Well, dear readers, I must take the day, I must do the things I do and I must work all the livelong day because we must send the epic piece that I’ve been working on for three weeks to the network for their mental delectation. There is quite a bit left to do in quite a short amount of time, so it will be a pressure-filled day filled with pressure. However, you won’t know it by me, because I’ll be humming/singing The Glory of Love and driving everyone crazy, I’m sure. Today’s topic of discussion: It’s Friday – the day in which you get to tell everyone what is in your CD player and what is in your DVD or video player. I’ll start – CD player: A new Naxos album of Jerome Moross music which is so ineptly recorded I can’t even enjoy it. Also, a double CD of marvelous Malcolm Arnold music, which I am enjoying (CD 1 opens with his A Grand, Grand Overture, a not-that-well-known piece that is really fantastic – an overture for orchestra and vacuum cleaner solo. In my DVD
player are the various and sundried PAL Region 2 DVDs that I am now checking out on the big screen. Your turn. Now, post often so I have something to read today, because I shall need it in the midst of the pressure and the humming/singing of The Glory of Love.
