Well, you've read the notes, the notes were supercalifragilisticexpialadocious, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're currently having a spoonful of sugar after which they will feed the birds.

And the word of the day is: FORTUOSITY!

Morning all.

That is all.

Glad to hear TCB will be on the road to recovery soon.

Danise · « **Reply #4 on:** March 06, 2012, 03:48:16 AM »

Good morning all. Sorry I was so short last night but that first day back at work was a monster and I was tired.

Dear TCB I don't want to hear one negative word about your surgery! No talk of dying because THAT is NOT going to happen. You are going to sail though it and be so much better afterwards. I won't entertain any other thoughts on that subject! You have to go into the surgery with a positive outlook.

I remember when I went in for my breast surgery I was trying to joke and said "I'll see you on the other side" to Themla. My meaning was the other side of the surgery but the nurse took it to mean something else and asked me if I thought something bad was going to happen. She really gave me the what for about it because she said your mind set can have an impact on how well you will recover.

So positive vibes and thoughts your way!!!!

I'm so sorry you have to work so many hours DR Vixmom. I know that must be a bummer.

I'm calling Angie at Angies list (not the same Angie that was on tv but someone who works for her) today to get more details about what is going to happen. I will tell you all about it when I get home if I don't get another phone call. It's been busy since I got back.

Good morning, all! Another night of curious dreams and one involving a bus: Kelli O'Hara and I were riding a bus down Verity Parkway in Middletown, Ohio, and she was carrying a ream of 11x17 copy paper. Then, I had a dream that I was trying to rent a car and the dream was complete frustration. Oy!

This morning, I have a date with my barber and a trip to my accountant. Then, it's more DEAREST ENEMY and ROBERTA work.

DR TCB, great news about the surgery.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Vibes for our DR TCB! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I think the first Sherman Brothers song I remember hearing is "Tall Paul." I still don't like it. I do love "Let's Get Together" and the score for MARY POPPINS. I'm currently listening to the OBC of OVER HERE with Michael Gibson's great big band charts.

Good morning, all. I feel a little better after a night's sleep. I think I was gifted with whatever is going around work in my small, stuffy cramped room, which got more cramped yesterday with the addition of two new people. I have been promised a cubicle and I hope it happens. Soon.

John G. · « **Reply #8 on:** March 06, 2012, 05:01:39 AM »

Mega-surgery vibes and mental vibes for TCB. Glad the surgery has been scheduled at last.

John G. · « **Reply #9 on:** March 06, 2012, 05:02:11 AM »

Great news, Danise, on the followup story.

John G. · « **Reply #10 on:** March 06, 2012, 05:08:39 AM »

TOD:

Sherman Bros. favorites would be a great big long list, but a few highlights include:

"Over Here" score
"Mary Poppins" movie score (all the stuff they wrote and not the lame additions for the stage)
"Slipper and the Rose" score
"Hushabye Mountain"
"Chitty Chitty Bang Bang"
"Fortuoisty"
"Busker Alley"
'He Had a Way"

And too many more to remember this early.

Must go to work.

DR TCB I am so glad that youy surgery has been scheduled. Btw. what kind of kindle do you have again. Is it the keyboard one with wifi or 3G? Because remember you can get onto HHW from your kindle. But if you have the wifi one (which is what i have) then they would have to have wifi at the nursing home.

Jennifer · « **Reply #17 on:** March 06, 2012, 06:19:33 AM »

DR Danise glad you got those follow-up calls. DR Laura on the show Angie said that they would work with some local contractors to fix up DR Danise's house. She did not go into details but i think it was implied that they would try to fix up what the other guy did not finish.

John G. · « **Reply #18 on:** March 06, 2012, 06:33:21 AM »

Today is the 100th anniversary of the Oreo cookie. Sounds like a reason to celebrate to me. Deep-fried Oreo cookies with Oreo cookie ice cream and chocolate-dipped Oreos on the side. (Diabetic? Who, me?)

How long have you and your barber going out together? :-)

Great news from DR TCB - at last, you're on the schedule!

Continued good news from DR DANISE!!!

I did not get to watch SMASH last night, so I do not know what the SHOCKING surprise was.....perhaps I will watch it ON DEMAND....if Nick Jonas isn't on it again.

Michael · « **Reply #22 on:** March 06, 2012, 06:43:03 AM »

TOD

It would have to be Mary Poppins. It was also the first movie I ever saw.

I think my favorite from the score is "Feed The Birds"

The next set of songs I was aware of had to be Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

and my favorite song from that score would be "Chu Chi Face" (sp)

Jrand73 · « **Reply #23 on:** March 06, 2012, 06:45:54 AM »

So sad about Mr Robert Sherman - I purchased THE BOYS on DVD after reading about it here.....very interesting and entertaining. But now it is even sadder to think about.

Like DR ELMORE - my first Sherman Bros. song was TALL PAUL.....unlike DR ELMORE, I do like it. I like all the songs they did for Annette......

Songs:

Let's Go Fly a Kite
Feed the Birds
Doll on a Box
Up From the Ashes
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
Toot-Sweet
Hushabye Mountain

So much of their work.....and YES the songs from THE PARENT TRAP.

Jrand73 · « **Reply #24 on:** March 06, 2012, 06:48:01 AM »

I was watching THE UNTOUCHABLES last night, and who should show up as "The 90-Proof Dame" but Miss Joanna Barnes.....who was also in THE PARENT TRAP.

I always liked Joanna. She is so beautiful.....and she can really be funny.....as in AUNTIE MAME as Gloria.....and in GOODBYE, CHARLIE....as one of Charlie's dames......

She was also on the syndicated version of TO TELL THE TRUTH in the late 60's and was always a very good game player.

Don't know for sure, but I suspect there may be a lot of curiousity among BK's legions who are curious to read what he wrote about Robert Sherman.

Waiting for the piano tuner.....I'm beginning to believe it's sort of like waiting for godot

While waiting I pre-ordered the Original Cast Recording for ONCE. It will be released on March 13 and is only $9.99 on Amazon
