Well, you've read the notes, the notes were designed, and now it is time for you to post until the designed cows come home.
-
And the word of the day is: ADONIZE!
-
First post after BK!
-
And Congrats on miraculous miracle three!
-
And now, it's bed time for me.
Have a good day, all!
-
Good morning, all.
-
It’s going to be an allergy day. Mold is heavy in the air.
-
Good morning, all!
-
I must try to do some laundry today. It will be hell.
-
Tom Cotton is on CBS This Morning; what a total nincompoop. His going to an intelligence meeting today seems a complete oxymoron or a waste of time. I long to see a lot of these dumbass Republicans out of office. Or dead.

Good morning to all

RUN OF THE ARROW
ONCE UPON A TIME IN AMERICA
LOVE IS A MANY SPLENDORED THING (written by my late clients and friends, Paul Francis Webster & Sammy Fain)
-
A reasonably good sleep was had, with just one crazy dream about my Apple account somehow getting accidentally linked up to some stranger's, so that we were seeing each other's stuff. Or something like that. And then Apple fixed it, but I wasn't absolutely positive it was staying fixed, so I kept trying it. And then I woke up. The End.
-
And so what must I accomplish today?
Through the day, the usual. Whatever that is.
This evening, another meeting. Just a relaxing dinner one with my director friend.
-
The weather is giving us a very nice break this week, all week. Thank you, weather. It's been a light year as far as snowfall goes, but those last couple of icy little storms were a supremely awful mess. We need as much of a break from those as from the traditional heavy ones.
I am REALLY thankful the past weekend's deluges weren't snow. We'd still be digging ourselves out.
-
We are also having very comfortable weather this week - albeit with some rain. That's okay - no snow is always good in February.

DR TCB I did forego the Olympics last night to watch the first night of the Westminster Dog Show.....they had the hound, toy, non-sporting (I think).....and the rest of the groups are tonight. I watch it on Fox Sports Network.
The winner in the toy group was a pug.....his father was entered in the competition, but he passed away a couple of weeks ago, so the owners entered the son. He won! His name is Biggie, and he is a cutie.
I particularly wanted to see the Shi-Tzui and Sharpei. The Bichon Frisee won in his category....I also like the Affenpinscher. Such cuties!
-
Continued third miraculous miracle vibes for MR BK.
-
TOD:
So many!!!
Love Is a Many Splendored Thing (as mentioned by DR DRUXY)
MANY Elmer Bernstein themes, but especially:
To Kill a Mockingbird, The Carpetbaggers, True Grit

Hey, Michael, how is the dog search going?

TOD:
Two Mancini come to mind:
Two for the Road and Breakfast at Tiffany’s
Francis Lai’s A Man and a Woman
The Godfather

TOD: Casino Royale
For Your Eyes Only
Makin' it (from "Meatballs"), believe it or not - a wonderful happy number
Stayin' Alive

I hate mold. Vibes it isn't too bad.

If possible I will try and catch the Bernese Mountain Dog completion online. They compete at 12:00 West Coast time.

I'm sure there's many, but my favorite is "Do You Know Where You're Going To" from the movie "Mahogany".

Love that one, too. It was better than the movie, a guilty pleasure.

Val believes the elevator crew will be finished by the end of the week. When I walked into the building, I noticed that there is a new control panel installed as well as a new floor indicator above the elevator doors. It will be a month of work on Thursday and the estimated time was six weeks.

I'm up, I'm up - barely. About seven hours of sleep.

If only Thatch had been featured in a certain movie... then we could say "He's such a cute little Focker!"

Eat I must go soon.

I just got corralled into playing a run-through of ANYTHING GOES tomorrow evening. In Poughkeepsie. Where they pick their feet. Or so I've been told.
-
Beaumont version. Which I have here on a PDF.
But have I ever played it? Never. I mean, I've played songs from the show, but never a production. So I guess I know what I'll be doing all day tomorrow.
-
Must go eat now.
Did I already say that? Maybe there's an echo in here.
-
I'm printing Amazon invoices today so poor Annabelle has been banished to the bathroom. When I let her out, Thatch and I are moving to a hotel to escape her wrath.

I cannot think of a better way to spend a day. Those blissful Porter melodies.

Agreed! I wish I could play well enough for something like that.
-
I saw the Beaumont production on an Easter matinee. Patti LuPone was so much fun and the audience was so in tune with her that several numbers stopped the show, the title song and Blow, Gabriel, Blow. I’ve never seen that before or after.
-
Went to a local coffee shop, Corky's, that I've been wanting to try. I had a delicious sandwich - turkey, Swiss, cole slaw and Russian dressing on grilled rye. Came with four really tiny bite-sized onion rings. I'll be back.
-
I'll go later to pick up a package.
-
Just received in the mail all the way from England...The Body In The Seine (http://www.stagedoorrecords.com/stage2430.html).
-
DR TCB I am watching the Olympics. Go Team Canada!
I have really enjoyed what I've seen so far.
-
Harry Connick Jr. is going to star in a musical of THE STING at Paper Mill in NJ.
I'm very wary of New Jersey Transit trains, but may have to brave it for this if the reviews are good. I wonder if a bus goes there from Port Authority.
-
Unless the talk is that it will move to NYC right away anyway.
-
Here's the info is anyone else is interested. it's soon!
HARRY CONNICK, JR.
TO APPEAR IN THE WORLD-PREMIERE PRODUCTION OF
THE STING
A NEW MUSICAL
BASED ON THE UNIVERSAL PICTURES FILM, ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY BY DAVID S. WARD
WITH BOOK BY BOB MARTIN, MUSIC AND LYRICS BY MARK HOLLMANN & GREG KOTIS WITH HARRY CONNICK, JR.
CHOREOGRAPHED BY WARREN CARLYLE
DIRECTED BY JOHN RANDO
MARCH 29 – APRIL 29, 2018
AT PAPER MILL PLAYHOUSE
-
Wonder how they'll deal with the fact that many audience members will come in knowing the plot's surprises while others will not. It may be dangerous to go into the lobby at intermission because of some gabby people. (This was a big problem at SLEUTH, for example, overhearing people who saw it already dropping teasin spoiler hints to their friends while on line at the bathroom or concession stand)
-
Meaning the original Broadway production of SLEUTH, of course.
I gather the intermission crowd was very careful about spoilers when TCB starred in SLEUTH
-
Famous Kats of HHW!
Hope you saw the Bernese DR JANE.
I didn't get to it but thanks. At some point I should be able to retrieve the video.

The onion rings, maybe the slaw (I am very picky) sound good.

I have mentioned before that my Vancouver was established prior to that famous one in B.C.
I have also mentioned we often walk over at Fort Vancouver.
Don't forget, we often walk along the Columbia River.
-
DR TCB I am watching the Olympics. Go Team Canada!
I have really enjoyed what I've seen so far.
Canada beat the Team USA in mixed doubles curling, however......
The first game of curling in the Pacific Northwest took place at Fort Vancouver. In January 1847, the Columbia River froze over, allowing teams from the Hudson's Bay Company and the Royal Navy's HMS Modeste to go head-to-head on the ice.

People can be terribly rude, or to be kind clueless.

Good evening!

More roller coaster weather: 30's today, high 50's tomorrow, high 60's Thursday.

Sounds interesting, FJL. I took the train from Penn Station in October to see The Honeymooners and didn't have a problem.

Tuesday evening greetings! Rebecca and I had a nice long coffee visit at Starbucks this morning. From there I did a couple of errands and have been home since early afternoon. Had a recliner nap before fixing us a Shrove Tuesday supper of pecan waffles and bacon. The tradition is pancakes, but I do better with waffles.

Our temps have changed but the days have stayed clear and dry. I will be sad to see the rain return.

Nice postcard DR JANE.
My mother is getting her right eye cataract surgery tomorrow....then she will be done....except for a followup on Thursday and daily eye drops for awhile.
She already sees much better with only ONE eye done...so I am sure she will be pleased with the result tomorrow.
-
I think it's Pairs Shorts tonight on NBC....Men's Shorts on Thursday....
-
Eye vibes for the mother of DR Jrand.

Glad to hear she’s doing so well. I saw my friend Betty last night for the first time since her 2 surgeries in January and she doesn’t look good. Can’t see very well either...
-
Men's Shorts on Thursday....
That's sounds like the title of something that wouldn't be unwelcome in Larry's VCR.
;)
-
I did not make pancakes because Vixdad doesn't care for them
-
I marinated 2 chicken breasts in some Chinese orange sauce then I browned them in a skillet, then they went into a baking pan with dome orange juice and dried cranberries fir about 20 minutes... Sides were mashed turnips and broccoli

I am sorry. Good vibes she will begin to recover soon.

Eye surgery vibes for Jacks mom

I took a beautiful sunset walk this evening. Keith called to tell me it was dark out. The path back to our place is dark and I was prepared with a flashlight. The walking path along the river is lit and there were lots of people out with cameras.
-
I have not been watching the Olympics
-
Page three? Really?
-
Page four? Really?
-
And on that note (F#), I'm leaving work.
Be back later.
-
Eye surgery vibes for Jacks mom
And more vibes.
-
I have not been watching the Olympics
But don't you compete Friday?
-
I bought a couple of Lubitsch films from Criterion and the complete Monterey Pop.
-
watching an odd film called Personal Shopper with Kristin Stewart in it. With the right director, she can be good. She's good here, but the story seems a little all over the place, part ghost story, part commentary about modern life.
-
My allergies are in overdrive right now. I think it's going to be a Benedryl evening.
-
I'm going to bed.
-
Good night, all.
-
Gratuitous post No. 100!
-
Finished watching a motion picture. Listening to music.
-
I think Keith is coming down with a cold vs just allergies.
DR John should I have put quotes around "just"?
-
Oh dear, oh dear, where can the people be?
-
Jane, Sambucol.
-
He tried it last time and it didn't help at all.
-
Tomorrow I will check if we still have some. I might be needing to try it.
For now he went to sleep with a cold ezze. I have one next to the bed in case my throat begins to feel like a cold instead of allergies.
-
Which formula is it again?
-
It's Sambucol and the box you want has a picture of a little white pill in the bottom right corner - thirty dissolvable tablets. Don't get any other kind.
-
Thanks.
-
The photos with a white pills say cold and flu. Is that it? I didn't expect the box to say flu.
-
I did a search here and found plenty of advice to take Sambucol with the little white pills that dissolve, but no mention regarding the cold & flu formula vs one of the others.
-
All I know is you want the one with the white pill on the right. It has been a lifesaver, sickness-wise, for four years now.
-
And yes, the box says cold and flu relief.
