Good morning from Montreal. I haven't seen leaves changing in a long time. I forgot how beautiful it was.

George is ushering "Something"

It was a benefit...and there were about 650 people in the audience. They loved the show. I listened to it in the lobby as I read my Kindle. I'm reading the Complete Wizard of Oz Collection. I'd never read any of them before, so it's very enlightening. The movie is obviously based on the first one, "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz," but is very different...actually, the movie is very different than the original book. The Wicked Witch of the West is referred to but doesn't actually appear until more than half way through. But it's a quick read. So far just last night, I'd read 14 of the 24 chapters.

Today, I'm working concessions for an early matinee of a local production of "Go Dog Go," by Olympia Family Theater. They're the group that put on "Goodnight Moon," earlier this year. I worked the sound board for that. I'm sure that it'll be delightful.

After that, I'll go to my parents' for a family dinner. It'll be kind of a long day, but fun.

Have a good day, all!

Hi all. I'm trying to ketchup very little by very little. But I'll get there.

Sunday morning greetings! I guess going to sleep at 10:30 is why I woke up a little after 7 this morning...

Loved that series when I was a kid, especially the first book. And I was kinda bummed at the ending of the movie, because it wasn't just a dream. Even at 8 or 9, I knew that was a cop out.

Good morning.

Now, I'm off to do a panel for the Austin Film Festival.

Later....

DR GINNY has returned home!

DR CHAS SMITH is still in the city of the angels.

DR MATTHEW is across the bridge.

I'm glad I didn't come to HHW this morning before I went to buy my newspaper, otherwise I would have come home with a box of donuts.

Today is the Annual Meeting of Putnam County Playhouse. All of the committee members have to present their year end report, which I will be writing for the Promotions Committee in a few minutes.

I have been excused from rehearsal this evening since I only have the ONE LINE in Act Two.......which is nice.

Next Sunday night the Cryers will be in town, so we will be doing the show for them before they are folded into the fold.

Good morning, all! I am sleeping poorly these days: my right shoulder joint is givng me a lot of pain and sleeping is difficilt because I am uncomfortable. I have no plans for today, so I slept in. If this discomfort continues, I'll call my doctor about going back to physical therapy.

So, today, I'm going to listen to a British musical I've never heard, CHU CHIN CHOW, and watch some DVDs. If I can locate my heating pad, I'll apply it to my shoulder and see if that helps.

DR George, if you've ever read the 1902versionof THE WIZARD OF OZ, you'll be glad that the MGM film stays as close to the original book as it does. I had a copy of the published screenplay, and the early drafts for OZ, like the 1902 musical version, played fast and loose with the book's plot.

I've only read the first three OZ books. I loved THE LAND OF OZ, which I read quite often in grade school, and I really like the film RETURN TO OZ.

Good morning from the nation's capital. Canada, that is. It's amazing how quiet the airport is on a Sunday morning!

I think Ms. Streisand's concert last night was the best so far, though he second performance in Brooklyn came close.

In the last two shows she did a duet with her sister, Roslyn Kind, who has longed to sing with her on stage. They did the Judy Garland/Barbra duet of Get Happy/Happy Days Are Here Again, with Roz doing Judy's song. It was great, but of course not like the original.

KevinH · « **Reply #21 on:** October 21, 2012, 08:14:54 AM »

Barbra's son, Jason Gould, apparently discovered (at the age of 45) that he can sing! He really can! He does a duet with his mother of "How Deep is the Ocean" and performs "This Masquerade" solo.

Waiting for my flight to Toronto on Porter Airlines, which I had never heard of till I booked the flight. They fly to Toronto's City Airport, which is much closer to downtown than Pearson.

Good morning, all.

Going out or a last drive before turning this car in and submitting to Group Activities. Will seek out something yummy to eat, too. This might involve a donut.

The new Criterion set of the movie Lonesome has, among it extras, a film version of George Abbott's Broadway, which had been lost for ages. Apparently, this is a put-together between the silent version of the play and the talkie.

No posts in an hour?

Where is everybody?

I'm up, I'm up. I was up at ten but refused to get out of bed. I finally got out of bed because I knew there'd be so many posts to read. Apparently I was wrong.

I've been getting cleaned up, reading the paper, and emptying the dishwasher. Now I'm watching the Cleveland/Indianapolis football game, mostly to see the stadium. The conference special event Thursday evening was Jersey & Jeans, a tailgate party at Lucas Oil Stadium that included tours of the facility. Even though I have a cute new Michigan shirt that I could have worn, I thought the price was too high and didn't attend. I told my conference roommate, who is a national board member and went to the event in her Buckeyes sweatshirt, that if it had been $35 I might have gone, but $55 was out of line. Especially for hot dogs and nachos.
