Any other shows that should have been recorded then that we have missed?

There may have beena few flops that might have been recorded. The most serious loss besides LOVE LIFE and WHERE'S CHARLEY? is the fantastic Villa-Lobos flop MAGDALENA.

So, now that I am here in Toyland, what personal possessions do I take home today?

Follow the Clinton tradition, take anything that isn't nailed down.

If they have a Keurig coffee maker, I'd suggest that.

If you spend too much time shucking ears you might get a corniche.

I was at that wonderful concert of MAGDALENA and I have the CD. What I meant was t that that score should have been recorded with its original cast (Irra Petina, Dorothy Sarnoff, and John Raitt) in 1948 but the strike prevented it.

Heading For The Bus - the title of the second part of the third book of my memoirs.

Good Morning!

I'm up, I'm up... And I'm taking today as a "personal mental health" today, of sorts. -And after the three days of SETC auditions last week, and the very long(!) day of auditions I played yesterday, well... I need it.

*And as for the audition call I played yesterday... -And I'm glad that some other "Professionals" are starting to speak up about this matter... -There are some people making a lot of money off "innocent" kids by making them think that taking ONE class with a "Master Teacher" will automatically guarantee them a job on Broadway. The amount of disillusion and the resulting disappointment I witnessed yesterday was both depressing and infuriating.

Laura - i believe that where my parents live, anyone over 50 is seen as eligible to use the Senior Center.

Well, that's depressing.

Try to look at it from a different perspective -- if you are in your 50s and taking an exercise class in a seniors center, chances are you will be the "star" of the class, presuming most of the class would be in their 70s and 80s.

Ginny · « **Reply #79 on:** March 08, 2011, 08:59:33 AM »

Yes, DR Ron, I was definitely the youngest person in the exercise room this morning. This "class" is really guided individualized instruction on using the handweights and resistance bands - just what I need for my next step. Since I'm all warmed up from that, I'm going to take my basement walk now.

As for the Topic of the Day...

-"Mass" - I'm sooo happy that Naxos preserved Marin Alsop's rendition with the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra and forces that I was very fortunate to experience Live at Carnegie Hall a few seasons ago.
-Candide in it's various incarnations and variations.
-"La Bonne Cuisine" song cycle. -Who knew recipes could be so musical?

-"I Hate Music" song cycle.
-"Arias and Barcarolles" song cycle. I had a chance to play one of the piano parts (it's a duet accompaniment) with an opera company in DC many years ago. Challenging and moving.
-Some of the "Anniversaries" - Bernstein wrote various "tribute" pieces to various people (friends, composers, etc.) It's interesting to see how he interpreted them through his music.
-Trouble in Tahiti - The whole "There is a garden..." sequence destroys me every time. -And then I get picked up again by "What a movie!".

Classical:
Aaron Copland's Appalachian Spring
Aaron Copland's Rodeo/Billy The Kid (I play these two recordings incessantly!)

COPLAND remains one of my favorite Sylvester Stallone films. They took some liberties with Copland's life story, but it was better than neglecting this composing master.

And don't forget Stallone and Banderas in ASSASSINS!

While I was at the market on Sunday, I was looking over all of the oatmeal products and decided to try McCann's. I'm trying to decide if I prefer it to Quaker.

Irish oatmeal is a totally different "experience" from Quaker rolled oats. I like both, just usually depends how much time I have in the morning prepare it.

I didn't know McCanns made an instant oatmeal

I like their original stuff very much - but I am usually too rushed to cook it in the morning and up with the Quaker instant at work

DR vixmom - You can actually prep the original stuff the night before. When I'm in an Irish Oatmeal Mode, I prepare four servings at once: 1 cup of oatmeal, 4 cups of water. I prep it the night before by bring the water to a boil, then adding the oatmeal. I then bring it back up to boil for a minute or two, then turn off the heat and let it sit until morning. You can then either heat it all up on the stove, or microwave individual portions. -You can also freeze it in Zip-Loc bags if you don't think you'll be eating all of it over the course of the next couple of days.

Stallone had a habit of redoing things his way. Look what he did to the ASSASSINS movie.
