We just got back to the hotel to drop off some stuff, after walking from 46th to 66th and over and back and forth between 7th and 9th, seaching for a necktie for Mr. Linton.

I underestimated how dressy a Bat Mitzvah would be, based on past experiences of events in NY and elsewhere, where I was very over-dressed. Weddings, film premieres, Broadway shows...I always thought people got dressed up for things more than they do.

Oy!

I'm sorry I'm just now paying attention to your Bat Mitzvah woes.  Yes, they can be rather dressy.

it's ever so nauseating.

Speaking of nauseating: The hot chocolate last night at DR Ben and Ant's put "hot chocolate" back on my radar screen.  So this morning I went to Dunkin' Donuts and let them talk me into a "Milky Way Hot Chocolate(TM)."

Big mistake.

It was truly nauseating!    :P

Hmm, I guess I did play some of the auditions for the current revival of Grease...

Are you now a close, personal friend of Max?    ;)

I wonder if he mentions his preferred method for cutting his birthday cakes?

The mind boggles...

Also on tonight on TLC is the Miss America Pageant.

I normally probably would not watch. But i have been watching the Miss America Reality show with the guy from Ugly Betty. So i am curious how that will play into things if at all.

I have the opposite situation to DR MattH. I have the 10pm Thursday's CHUCK to watch.

DR MattH, i'm curious why you watched the 10pm show first (i'm guessing maybe you were watching something else at 8pm and found yourself free at 10pm).  The reason i ask is from what it said in the blurb in the tv it sounded like the 10pm show was in response to things that happend at 8pm!

We are supposed to get the remains of the latest California rainstorm. They expect it to hit around 8 p.m. I hope so. The rain last week was very brief, indeed.

If Mr. Barrowman likes to show himself off so much, then why did he wear a shirt while in bed with April during "Barcelona" in the Kennedy Center COMPANY?  Did he have a cold or something at the performance I saw?

I wish I'd known about plans for a spontaneous get-together tomorrow.  We've got a brunch at a neighbor's and then I'm rushing off to see SUNDAY IN THE PARK WITH GEORGE (the painter George, not DR George :) )

Maybe it's in earlier posts...... I"m catching up.

Mr Montengro wrote for The Ambushers, Lady In Cement, Charro, the Undefeated, Viva Max - and of course The Man from U N C L E.

He was the conductor/arranger for Harry Belafonte.

(From Movie Classics CD - the music of Ennio Morricone and Hugo Montenegro)

Tomovoz - And David McCallum of MAN FROM UNCLE fame was one of the leads in Skip's show TIME AND AGAIN at Manhattan Theatre Club.  That's only two degrees of separation between Skip and Mr. Montenegro.

I don't know what, exactly, but apparently DR Edisaurus's work will be on display during this broadcast.  :)

A shirt?  Really?  Hmm... All I seem to remember during that scene was him in a black Dolce & Gabbana brief (which I think was actually a swimsuit) that had black "buckles" on the side.  I'll have to check my production shots.  Hmm... ???

Hmm... I may see you at the Roundabout tomorrow afternoon, DR FJL.  Although, I may be going to the evening performance.  A friend of mine who just started working for Roundabout "has" to see the shows, and since he gets two passes for each show, well... We'll see.

Well, I'm sure if you do a Google search, you'll come up with the details.  He's actually mentioned it a few times in some of his interviews for "special interest" magazines.

Well, the next time you're in the city, I'll have to take you to Grom for their Hot Chocolate.  It's basically their gelato base heated up.  Sooooooo good.  Soooooooooo rich.

Is anyone else reading the new John Barrowman autobiography?

Of course, the idea that anyone this young feels compelled to write their autobiography is a bit strange...

I think Kenneth Branagh wrote his autobiography at age 28 or 29.

DR vixmom - So.... Did the vixter like "Sweeny Todd"?  Even though she had to cover her eyes a few times?  Is she having any "after effects" (nightmares)? And, yes, the final moments are actually the most shocking to me too.

DR George, I was very fortunate to have a real estate agent who talked me into going for a 15 year mortgage when I bought my house with the result that I had the house paid off several years before I retired and was able to use the money I wasn't paying for the mortgage over the course of years to save up a nice little nestegg to live on now.

It was among the best decisions I ever made.

Today I took the Vixter out to the hairdresser and paid for her to have purple hair extensions put in.  The salon is running a promotion where all the money ($10 per extension) goes to the Leukemia Society.  The Vixter had six put it on one side of her head.  It looks vey nice actually!!
