DR Jose, what a splendid frenzy! And what an exciting day you've had. It sounds like a lot of fun.

I'm happy that DRs Cillaliz and jhvw got in safely, although it sounds like the flight from hell for both.

Is this a slow news day here at haineshisway.com? Not one question.

I had a question about the hotels and whether I would likely be safe or end up another Blue Dahlia.

Very interesting sheet music, DR RLP.

I checked my AUNTIE MAME Original Soundtrack Album and no such song was included....so I am NOT sure where it came from or why it exists.

For MR BK - what piece of sheet music have you been looking for and have NEVER found?

I have achey feet (another day of cart wrangling), and it's time to get dinner going...

Dixie, my direct boss, told me that she and the rest of the management team now have me listed as both a cashier and cart wrangler in the computer. This way, she and they can now schedule me for the wrangling one day per week, and schedule enough cashiers for that day as well. Before this, I've been wrangling under a cashier schedule, which has cut into how many cashiers they've been able to have on staff at any time. No wonder the other cashiers have been working like crazy lately!

This is a part-time job, by the way. This week, they've got me scheduled for forty-four hours! I'm working harder now that I'm semi-retired than I did before I took early retirement!

DRJOSE - I wish ALL copies of ACL, the movie, would disappear.

DR RLP...hmmmm....Kim Gannon wrote the lyrics to "Moonlight Cocktail", "Five O'clock Whistle" and "I'll Be Home for Christmas."

AUNTIE MAME is not even listed in his IMDB credits, so that is a RARE RARE RARE song.....you're right, probably Never sold or played.

S. Woody White · « **Reply #129 on:** October 04, 2006, 05:10:42 PM »

Here's a theory...

Could the Auntie Mame song have been written and published before the film was released, as part of the pre-release publicity? It then could simply have not been used in the film, for whatever reason, and disappeared from the public eye.

It's not a song IN the movie, Jack...it's a song written to the main theme of the score. Sort of like "This Land is Mine" was penned by Pat Boone to accompany the "Theme from 'Exodus'"....after the fact...

Oh, Mike, I'm certain that it is all entirely up to you how you end up...who you hang out with, where you hang out...that sort of thing.

I'm sure that if you keep your cell phone handy and call Larry Moore any time a strange/untoward situation arises, he will surely be able to talk you through it.

Maybe if Pat Boone had recorded it, we might have heard of it.

Just saw a television promo for MARIE ANTOINETTE.....that had two of the funniest v.o. comments ever:

"From acclaimed writer-director Soffia Coppola...." and "Based on a true story...."

I'm up, I'm up. My publisher is trying to figure out why amazon has added a "sourcing fee" to the latest book - it makes the hardcover cost $44.10! Neither of us have ever seen such a thing and it certainly wasn't there when the book first went up. I'd called amazon yesterday, and they told me it could have only come from the publisher. The publisher tells me they've never heard of such a thing and that it absolutely didn't come from them. The fun never stops at amazon - the publisher is supposedly calling them to discuss.

Keith, the ex-publisher, says a sourcing fee makes sense from a bookseller’s perspective. I found the following quote Amazon wrote to a customer “We add a sourcing fee for special order titles and other selected items because of the additional costs associated with processing these orders.” The sourcing fee in that situation was a $1.00, which is more in line with the amount Keith would expect.

Vixmom-GS nuts and candy! Is this something new?

Maria-the B & B sounds wonderful. I’ll be watching for photos when you return.

Ben-I’m relieved your eye is okay but did you have to make me read about your purchases first, I wanted the important news first.

bk · « **Reply #138 on:** October 04, 2006, 06:58:57 PM »

There has never been a sourcing fee on amazon for any book that I've ever seen, including my other five, and certainly not from my publisher. amazon can't explain it, but they're fixing it supposedly.

I have been looking for the "inspired by" song from Vertigo (the sheet music) forever. I have it in a fake book, but I want the real deal. Drifting is an odd title for the Auntie Mame song. The first bar, the lyric that fits the tune would be, of course, Auntie Mame, Auntie Ma-ame, but I don't know what music drifting would fit.

Hello!! I am so glad the purple envelope arrived Fred, I felt horrible about the imposition thanks for being my knight in shining armor!!

Sounds like Jose liked A Chorus Line a bit more than me - I liked it okay, but there was no goose bump factor for me ever, and I have had the goose bump factor not only with the original company, but with several others as well, including the one Kevin Spirtas did on tour that played the Wilshire here in LA.

Jane · « **Reply #141 on:** October 04, 2006, 07:00:44 PM »

Ginny & Jose-Thanks for the update on Cillaliz & jhvw.

I’m so glad I’m missing beautiful weather, but boy will I be upset if it snows/and or rains by the time I make it there.

vixmom · « **Reply #142 on:** October 04, 2006, 07:03:21 PM »

I am looking forward to tomorrow... if only the weather cooperates.....

Bk when are you going to be back here again? (Exactly?)

vixmom · « **Reply #144 on:** October 04, 2006, 07:12:50 PM »

Jane the nuts and candies are soemthing that the Girsl Scouts here have been doing at least 9 years as they have been doing it as long the Vixter has been in Girl Scouts but I do not recall ever seeing them before she joined so it may have started aroun then. They now do magazine sales and nuts and candies inthe fall and cookies inthe spring,,, I don't mind shilling the cookioes as they are somethin gthat peoiple truly seem to enjoy and the prices seemed inline with what you'd pay in the grocery stores for a similar products but I will not push magazine subscriptions at people.

I understand that some fundraising is necessary but after a while it starts to seem like she joined Future Saleswomen of Amercia rather than Girl Scouts.... of course the schools are just as bad everytime you turna round they are sending home a fundraising envelope... funny I don't remember having any fundingraising when I went to school (of course that was back in the stone age)

Jane · « **Reply #148 on:** October 04, 2006, 07:15:09 PM »

Vixmom-a few of the boys schools offered the option to make a flat donation instead of selling products "no one" wanted. For the most part the parents were thrilled & made nice donations.

Jane · « **Reply #149 on:** October 04, 2006, 07:16:01 PM »

Before I leave-ME TOO! I'll see you in March or April, if not sooner.
