DR John G, I was unlucky enough to see the original Public Theatre production of "The Human Comedy" for three reasons: my friend the late Ken Bryan was in it, I like a lot of Galt McDermott's music, and the reviews had been excellent. It was one of the worst pieces of crap I've ever seen, with about half of a good cast (the real stinkers were the boy from FRIGHT NIGHT and Gordon Connell), and too large a band playing too loudly in too small a space. The first trumpet shrieked nothing but high notes, with a few so high that only dogs can hear them, till I thought I'd go deaf. It stank. The movie cannot be as bad. The story was, too me, typical William Saroyan paddlin' maudlin home.

I had actually ordered the CD from Footlight.com, but it's been more than a month and I haven't heard anything about it. I haven't received the CD and I also haven't been charged for it...but it's still listed on the website. I suppose I should e-mail them asking how long it'll take.

I just learned that my dear friend Russell Warner died in Seattle this morning. He's been in terrible health for a long period of time that I cannot say I am completely shocked. I am very sad.

Besides being a very dear friend, he was a talented composer and an excellent orchestrator and arranger. I will miss him enormously.

Larry, I'm so sorry. My condolences.

Just recorded the song I wrote for the twelve-year-old Melody. I really like it a lot. We're calling her show Melodyland and here's the lyric I wrote:

I had to look up money note.

If any of you have his recording of FINE AND DANDY, have a listen and enjoy his sparkling witty work. Ignore mine, but the score is mostly Russell's.

One of my favorite recordings of recent years. "Let's Go Eat Worms in the Garden" is sublime.

DR GINNY - polka dots NEVER go out of style.

LOL, DR JRand! When I was about 13 and in need of a confirmation dress for church, I insisted that my mother make me one out of white fabric with 1" navy blue polka dots. All the other girls had pastel-colored chiffon and mine sticks out like a sore thumb in the group photo. Never again!

And your mother did it-lol. This time I'm sure your future daughter in-law would stop you.

So I got through allergy season in SW Ohio by using my Rx nasal spray and decided last week that I no longer needed it now that the tree blooms have come and gone. Didn't realize driving 250 miles north would be like turning the clock back about 3 weeks. I wish I'd brought that med with me...

I'm sure you can get some if you go to the pharmacy. How much longer will you be staying?

My favorite track is Gavin Creel's beautiful "Starting At The Bottom." Russell's work matches Gavin's: complete magic!

How does one upload a sound file? Where? I certainly wouldn't put a rough iPod recording on YouTube. The music is really cute, I think - many key changes within the verses - it just came flowing out like that. Starts in Ab for the first two lines, modulates to A for the next two, then to C for "Melodyland" and the next line, then to Eb for the next, and then back to Ab for the next verse.

And tonight GLEE is on for an extra 1/2 hour.

Not sure if I will get to watch it tonight. Apparently my aunt really want to watch the Canadiens playoff hockey game. I know i want to watch the DWTS results show. I felt so bad for Karina last night.

I have to record "Glee" tonight. Larry, my sister's boyfriend, is coming over to record some things that I have on my DVR so that he can make native-widescreen (but not hi-def) DVDs of them for me. He has to record them onto his laptop and then do stuff with programs that I don't have. I asked him if he could teach me how to do that on my computer and to let me know what new type of video card and program(s) that I would need. He said that he has a video card that he's not using and if I have room for it in my computer, I can just have it.

George · « **Reply #168 on:** April 26, 2011, 03:04:08 PM »

Then, the only things that I'll need to get would be whatever program to use and the cable.

You're tired!

For the last week or so, my dog has been waking us up once or twice in the middle of the night to let her out.

Then, at 6 am on the dot, our alarm clock [CORRECTION: our cat] starts yelling to be let out of the guest bathroom.

Is your dog ok?

She's 15...has arthritis...possibly a bit of dementia...

Other than that....

Last night we watched INSIDE JOB and thought it was excellent. Keith was very familiar with many of the respected, in his opinion & apparently the people who did this, economists and over the years has given me many of their articles to read. If anything was missing it was comments on the history of economic downfalls and what might have been done in the beginning to turn this around.

I am reading THE WORST HARD TIMES: The Untold Story of Those Who Survived the Great American Dust Bowl by Timothy Egan. I have been completely engrossed in the lives of these people who stayed.

I can't help but constantly compare what happened then to what has happened today. The government encouraged the people to "destroy" the land while ignoring the few who said you can't pull up the grass. Those who saved money during the good times lost it when the banks failed.

The banks failing is why regulations were instigated, yet the government thought it would be ok, and still does, to deregulate banks.
