Can't put this on ATC, but I did put it in the NY Times comment box, and it came to me really thinking of it in Larry's and WHERE'S CHARLEY's honor, though I was afraid to write that, lest someone call me a shill for the show because of friends involved.  :)  Also knowing how the Loesser people feel about parodies of his work, which I learned last summer when i got a nasty legal note, so i shall not YouTube this.


Tune of ONCE IN LOVE WITH AMY

Once you’re hooked by Encores,
You’re always hooked by Encores
Season by season, hear the giddy voices,
Wondering what the choices will be

Once you’re struck by Encores,
You’re always stuck on Encores
Each time you go to New York City Center,
You are sure to enter with glee

Nervous of the coming renovation,
Of which we’ve been told
Checked out the brand new seating situation,
And I am sold

So I’ve been hooked on Encores,
Now I’m more hooked on Encores
Season by season, ever edifying,
Shows that we’ve been dying to see
Now Encores is even more fine with me.

Very nice, Fred!

Good morning, all! I've sent a letter of inquiry to the foundation asking if, rather than sending an express mail, they could wire the funds to my account. I may not hear from them the rest of the day, but I've done what I can to prevent disaster at this end. It does amaze me: I work for two institutions, one of them for 10 years now, both run by wealthy men, and we cannot be paid by either in a regular, orderly payment plan.

So, today I can do little; I don't have enough money to refill my metrocard, so a trip to Toyland is out of the question. I can walk to the NYPL, so I believe that will be today's work center.

SO, I have discovered that my payment woes really are as bad, if not worse, than I thought they would be.   The feds said that the funds to pay court appointed criminal lawyers ran out in February so they quit paying fee claims on Feb 23.  If a new continuing resolution passes, they will start paying the claims in the order they have been approved until the funding runs out then they don't pay until more funding is passed.  I found out this morning that my big fee claim made it to the first judge and is now on it's way to St Louis for approval by the second judge.  Since it hasn't been approved yet, it's going to be at the back of the line when the fee claims start being paid. 

And, they project that there is no way they will have enough funds to pay the entire fiscal year even if a continuing resolution passes, so this means that any outstanding claims that haven't been paid in August will not be paid until a new budget takes effect in October or whenever the &*#6 people in Washington can agree on one.   

I am glad I will not be depending on the feds for my income in the future, but this really makes things difficult.

"Scared Stiff" is my fave Martin & Lewis!

 I'd add to that "Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein!"

And . . .

I am solvent again. After several truly panicky emails last night, the foundation in Philadelphia transferred the last invoice payment to my account this morning, and the funds have landed. Thank you all for the vibes!

They've told me this will not happen again, and I hope it's true.

I'm surprised this is happening. The book had better be plenty different. I remember reading the original book and wondering, What was Lerner smoking? Nothing, apparently. But he was under the influence of other drugs at the time. That didn't stop Burton Lane from producing some of his loveliest melodies.

I do want to see the show but I'm slightly annoyed. I bought an "artists membership" at Vineyard Theatre specifically because the new production of OACDYCSF was part of the season. It was moved off the season a few months ago (we were notified about that). Somehow I doubt that I'll get any kind of break for a ticket to the Broadway version. Oh, well.

Someone posted that the Vineyard will provide tickets at the Vineyard cost to their subscribers for the B'way On A Clear Day.  That said, this revisal sounds like it's from hunger.

really, it's quite upsetting. I can't remember the last time I've had a really good night's sleep without having the cats wake me over and over.  

Same goes for snoring dogs & dogs that crash land on me during the night.

When I was away from the cats sometimes I couldn't sleep because I missed their cuddling. ::)

I went to the chiropractor again this afternoon.  He popped my shoulder in a different way and I think he got it, but my back is still a little sore.
