Doretta was an amazing soprano.  She was in the original cast of WHERE'S CHARLEY?  I haven't decided if I prefer her or the late great Lee Venora opposite Alfred in KISMET.  They both had flings with him.

Have ONLY heard the recordings....but I think I will take Lee.  But not if she is flung.  :P

LOL...I agree.

MR BK has had lunches, telephone calls, and much to think about.  Perhaps 2007 will start with some ANNOUNCEMENTS!   8)

Well, I do know that Cathie and Alice want to see "The Brain from Planet X!"

I'm quite enjoying this musical.  I suspect it is for the music and the voices rather than the lyrics though.

How do we know that Peter Pan didn't say fuck occasionally?  Even the twee ones get a bit pissed every now and then.  Just my observation.
Only when played by Robin Williams.

Come to think of it, those pirates were always terribly polite, weren't they!

The pot roast has had it's vegetables added (rose taters, carrots, boiler onions.

And der B wants me to watch the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie with him, because he never finished it the first time and suspects it would make sense to watch #1 before watching #2.

DR Tomovoz, I already have the "Patience." It's available in the States.  I don't know anything about the "Pirates" DVD!

And, with Cyril Ritchard leading them, nellier than Richard Simmons in a thong and  singing "I feel pretty"!  I think Jason Isaac butched them up in the last PETER PAN film.  I gather that the original Hook, Gerald du Maurier (Daphne's father), was every child's nightmare as Hook.

Ginny & Matt H-Thank you for the back pain sympathy.  I often have that, & there is a good chance will by tomorrow, but at the moment it’s my hip.  I’m very disappointed as we had plans to go out to dinner tonight & enjoy the winter lights.  This was our only opportunity before the lights come down after the New Year.  Alas, I had to pass since sitting is very difficult.

FJL, JRand56, & Cillaliz-Thank you.  If I keep moving it isn’t as bad.  I also had a nice glass of Harvey’s Bristol Cream Sherry. :)

Thanks Jose-A blink of the eye for the pain to hit, that would be very fast relief indeed.  Maybe if I move the “right” way instead of the “wrong way”.

I'm back from a thoroughly enjoyable viewing of "DreamGirls".  What a phenomenal debut for Jennifer Hudson!

The girl can SANG!

Very moving performance, too.  Eddie Murphy was a revelation.

The rest was "nice" icing and fun.

When it comes to serious awards, I think only Hudson and Murphy merit acting nominations.

Ah....

Well for DREDISAURUS - I would say your dream about the lovely room in your home means that to you, every day is a discovery, a welcome discovery. And that you value even the unexpected.  You are also unafraid of new challenges.

DR DtM - since your room was difficult to get to, I would say your dream is similar, but that challenges are just that to you.  And that you value the job well done rather than the job itself.

Okay, I'll buy that.  I'm just glad that it didn't mean that I was maladjusted in some way.

I'm so jealous. I would love to see Dream Girls, but it doesn't get here until january 12th.  Maybe I'll see if it's in Omaha.  I could make a trip tomorrow.
