Well, you've read the notes, the notes were fashionably noteworty and unfashionably late, and now it is time for you to post until the fashionably and unfashionably late cows come home.

Good morning, all, and a special good morning to DR SWW!

I had a fitful night of very peculiar dreams, which I attribute to this cold and my current state of health.  In my last dream, I was carrying my goddaughter Charlotte, who was a baby, into the stockroom of Barnes and Noble.  I had set her in her carrier down on a table with books and for some reason I had to move her.  I picked her up and I was suddenly in the Miami Universitry theatre's costume shop around 1970:  long tables with fabric and sewing supplies everywhere.  When I got to a table and put the baby down, I was carrying my sleeping brother Tom.  I have no idea!  I also remember part of a dream involving a carton of work I had and an elevator.  Oy!

So, much as I want to stay in bed, I have to go to Fourteenth Street for several hours:  I have errands and a bit of work I must accomplish.  After that, I shall hie myself back here and crawl back to bed.

TOD:  maybe later.

Sunday morning greetings!  DH Richard is off to church in Cincinnati and DS Rob is on a canoe/camping trip with UC friends, so I'm enjoying my solitude this morning.  It's blessedly cool and the humidity's down, so we opened our windows last night.  It's so nice to air out the house after being hermetically sealed in air conditioning for a couple of weeks.

Good morning!

The rain continued off and on for hours last night, so outside was a soggy mess this morning, and though it's not burning hot, the heat we do have makes it SO sticky outside and definitely uncomfortable.

I'll be doing my usual SUnday errands (laundry, cleaning my bathroom) and glad to be inside doing them.

I really have no idea what I'm going to be watching today. I've kind of soured on the idea of the nearly three hour THE GOOD EARTH.

I'm thinking definitely ON BORROWED TIME, and I think maybe ORCHESTRA WIVES, too, at some point today. Neither of these are very long, so I should be able to watch them and get chores around the house accomplished without much grief.

As for the quality of the Region 1 I, CLAUDIUS, I haven't watched it in awhile, but if I remember correctly, the transfers were taken from the videotape masters which is why they might not be as sharp as they could be.

I don't remember having any problems with the sound, however.

I do adore the series and it's not such a bad idea to possibly revisit it during the upcoming week.

Nothing like a festival to get you working on your show.  We just got the latest draft of the script and score off to the theater.

Hearing all the NYMF excitement around New York theater circles is a little tough.  We were just recently greatly honored when we were asked to do a NYMF production as part of this year's festival, but when that happened, we tried all day and evening to get our creative team together for a schedule that would allow us to do it, but several of them were just not available at that point.  It would have been quite prestigious for us to be able to also do NYMF, but I guess you can't look back.  :(

Back from the longer version of the jog - cloudy, so not quite as broiling as yesterday.  

Now, I must say that given all the NY hainsies/kimlets get-togethers over the last couple of years, I expect we should have a big West Coast version when The Brain From Planet X opens, which, coincidentally, is on my birthday, December 8th.  So, start saving your pennies now, book early, and let's do it up right.

Back from Xeroxing but had a message from David Wechter - not feeling well, so we're postponing our work session for today.  

In other breaking news, and I am really saddened and even annoyed by this - our two baby birds flew the coop yesterday.  As you know, I felt mommy bird was not there enough towards the end, and that, coupled with the extreme heat, made babies impatient and miserable.  I sensed yesterday that they'd be flying off soon - they were sitting up the whole day, flapping away.  But, it was too soon, mother wasn't there, and they took off and unfortunately couldn't stay airborne and flew right into the pool where they drowned.  

Well, I suppose I did everything I could to insure that mom and babies were never bothered or scared in their nest (I refused to let anyone use the patio doors near the nest), and once they fly the coop, they're on their own.

BK - We've assumed there's no point in trying to get you to come to Seattle (you'd be flown out - or up - of course) on August 4th,  because of the LACC cabaret series conflicting.  Obviously, if the cabaret series could do without your presence for the one night, the offer is very much there.

I so appreciate that, FJL, but alas I must be there.  I also have a major event I'm supposed to go to on the 5th, but can't be there, either.

I just scooped the birds out of the pool and buried them in the garbage can.

It was too hot for you
Bye bye birdies
And I'll miss you, too

I'll miss the way you chirp
As though it was for me
I'll miss you in your nest
Why did you have to flee

Bye bye birdies

I did something totally dumb today. I washed my billfold. I thought I checked the back pocket of the shorts I was washing, but I guess I didn't. Stupid, stupid me!

Anyway, of all the paper items in the wallet, what's the one paper item that was destroyed beyond recognition. You guessed it, my car registration. So, I've just come from the online website where I ordered a new one. My little lapse in sanity cost me $15.00.

The cash that was in my wallet, well, not only was it only slightly wet, it dried faster than any other paper items in the wallet. I guess that rag paper it's printed on is more resillient to moisture.

To qwell my curiosity about the Region 1 I CLAUDIUS, I put in the first disc. On the Region 1 discs, all of the episodes are a little short of an hour, and there are 13 episodes. Maybe the Euopean version combined the first two episodes if it was longer than an hour? I watched the first two on side one of the set. The shows are on three double sided discs.

At any rate, I'd say the video quality is 3 1/2 out of 5. Nothing looks awful, the color is solid (for mostly videotaped scenes), and the mono sound is clear and solid. So, I don't know who's reviewing this set so badly that you've read, bk, but it's better than mediocre, I'd say. The series is 30 years old after all.

I finished the afternoon watching YOUNG AND INNOCENT, an Alfred Hitchcock film I had never seen before. It's one of his British works, and this one is very similar to THE 39 STEPS (which it followed), perhaps a bit jollier in tone than STEPS and not having quite as charismatic leading actors as STEPS had. Still, most enjoyable.

Did anyone watch CAB TO CANADA last night? It was on my list of favorite TV movies and low and behold it was on one of the cable channels...there seems to be one that shows nothing but old TV movies!! I don't remember the station but will post it when I find out.

CAB TO CANADA was made a few years ago and stars Maureen O'Hara and Jason Beghe. Quite a good little film.

I just read reader reviews at amazon - I should know that those should always be suspect.  The BBC must have combined the first two hours, I guess.  The quality is really excellent on the region 2.  I'm assuming that the rest of the episodes are one hour - also, there was some talk on amazon of the US set being slightly shorter than the original broadcasts.  The UK set is on five DVDs and includes some nice extras.

Sorry to hear about the baby birds.

Today i watched my first episode of Project Runway. NBC showed it last monday, and will show episode 2 this monday.

I know i would love it. But i don't get Bravo. My sis does get it on LIFE a few weeks delayed, so i may ask her to tape it if NBC stops showing it.

Does anybody know how long NBC is planning to show it for? It would be sort of mean for them to get people hooked and then stop showing it. But perhaps many people in the US get Bravo.

There are several. It runs out of gas, and they have to push it. They slow down to scoop up the heroine's dog (a beautiful shot). They scoot across railroad tracks just in front of an oncoming train.

Hmmn...what I was thinking of was scene where a ledge or something collapses with the car and the couple barely make it out...I might be thinking of a different movie.

Last night I watched a show called TSUNAMI on the Discovery Channel.  I imagine it has been on before.  Has anyone else seen it?  It details the 12/26/04 tsunami in Southeast Asia using real video, first person memories, and recreations.  Wow!  It is pretty powerful stuff.  I had seen a lot of still photos of the water and the damage, but some of this video is horrifying.  It is not easy to watch, but it is very well done.

Good Evening!

Back from a very full rehearsal day.  I got the rest of the music taught - which is a very good thing since I'll actually not be at rehearsals tomorrow and Tuesday due to other previously scheduled gigs.  Most of the material is pretty solid, and there are two sections that are still a bit troublesome.  Of course, on paper, those two sections amount to about two full pages of music.  And once they're running at tempo, they only last about 15 seconds total.  But boy are they a bit tricky.  -And a bit "exhausting" to learn - and teach!  Hopefully, my sub won't do too much damage over the next two days, and when I come back in Wednesday morning, I can get things to fit together properly.

But all in all, it was a very good day.  :)

Well, it turned into a beautiful day here in NYC. I went out to the grocery store for a few things while Anthony stayed in and worked on his picture project. He is almost finished putting together all his Beauty and the Beast pictures. It will be a two-disk set with some video clips as well. Anyone venturing into the apartment will most likely end up seeing at least a few of the pictures.

Anthony is watching Miss Marple right now and I'm here in Kimmel land.

Unfortunately, Anthony has to take a trip out to Long Island for a few days beginning tomorrow. A dear old friend (literally, she's 82) fell and bruised her ribs. She didn't break anything but for a day or two she was in intense pain (according to George her Husband). Anthony has known Elinor for over 25 years and feels as if she is his grandmother. He's going out to visit her and make sure everything is OK. George is a bit frazzled by the whole thing and can use some help so Ant will be gone for a few days taking care of friends.

Yes, in 1993, we had my mom here from Phoenix for almost a month and guests from Michigan both weekends of the US Nationals.  We spent a lot of time out at the venue, where there was a lovely juried craft show.  That's where DH Richard bought me the ring I wear most frequently on my right hand - 2 blue topaz and an amethyst.  I think in 1992, we'd been in Phoenix ourselves during the competition and in 1994 the weather was awful and they lost a lot of money on that event.

No, you're remembering correctly. The girl falling over a cliff with the guy extending his hand is very similar to NORTH BY NORTHWEST, but in this Hitchcock milks the danger a lot more, and, you're right, the cliff chips off bit by bit as she's yanked up. Beautifully done.

I finally got ON BORROWED TIME watched. The print TCM showed was only in fair shape. There was a fair amount of specks and scratches, but the story is still gripping, and I liked it so much.

They had to do some camera tricks to get Lionel Barrymore out of that wheelchair and walking, of course, and it's an obvious double in long shots and he's merely standing on a stand while process scenes move behind him near the end. Still effective.
