Wow - I finally found an affordable copy of the original London cast of Bye Bye Birdie....Chita Rivera and Peter Marshall...with Marty Wilde as Conrad.  I love the orchestrations and the slightly different vocals....except of course the guy who plays Harry McAfee....

You should have asked--I have it, plus for some odd reason there have been a ton of used copies at various Everyday Music stores here, usually for pretty cheap.

Well, my exciting weekend continues apace.  Last night, the pleasure of hearing my music done by two virtuosos, and today I have received an email from an L.A. producer who's in a production company with an Oscar winning actor on whom I believe DS Betsy may have just an itsy bitsy crush.  ;)  He is interested in developing a new FF feature and they want me to help.  Is Venus in Uranus or something like that?  ;)

So, half the clocks did reset themselves for daylight savings this morning.  Only to find out that it's been moved up till next weekend.   I thought electronics were to be smarter than humans.   Or are my electronics still living in the past.   And then next year's time changes in the middle of November.   So why bother buying anything that is preset.

That's all.

Except I fear there will be a train wreck of sorts at church today.

Has anyone suggested moving the church off the tracks?

"It's been moved up " for three years now. Next year the time shift is is the same as this year - the first Sunday of the month.

der Brucer

The new schedule was heavily promoted by the "Anti Witches, Goblins, and Ghosties League" who wanted more daylight to scare away the beasties on Halloween.

The effort also had the support of numerous anti-Kimmelians* who looked forward to BK's predictable agitation.

* Not to be confused with Boy George's "Karma-Kimmelians"

What a lazy day! I am feeling hungover although I've had no alcohol in over two weeks and I'm ready for a nap. I'm also listening to Maria Callas sing, and her rendition of "Vissi d'Arte" is so moving and sad that it moves me to tears. What an artiste!

And speaking of Maria Callas, it was just recently officially announced that Tyne Daly will be portraying "La Divina" in Master Class this coming spring at the Kennedy Center as part of it's Terrance McNally "Nights at the Opera" series.

It's amazing what mentioning one little Oscar winning actor whose producing partner emailed me can do for the general state of one's marital bliss.  ;)

Jennifer, the cars were indeed parked in front of and in back of me on the street.  And they were literally almost right up against the front and rear bumber - there was no way at all to get the car out from between them.  And they were there until one-thirty in the morning, whooping and hollering on the street like fifteen-year-olds.  Since they're thirty, that makes sense since thirty is the new fifteen. 

They might, on top of being thirty, have also been thirsty AND drunk!
This explains that! :P

I've had it for a while. If I had known you wanted it, I'd have made you a copy LONG ago.

I began my late morning viewing by beginning last night's THREE RIVERS (I believe this was actually last Sunday's episode repeated last night). Within ten minutes, the new male character was pining away for one of the female staff members, and I decided I'd cut my losses and drop the show. Three episodes into a new show and they're alrerady cannibalizing the cast by pairing them off with one another. No thanks.

So, I watched Friday night's LAW & ORDER. A riveting case: the murder of a doctor who did late term abortions. Very fascinating sides of the case. Richard THomas was the primary guest star as the lawyer representing the shooter.

While I ate lunch I watched WHITE COLLAR, and yes, I, like others here, enjoyed it very much. Didn't think the twist to catch the crooks was all THAT inventive; BURN NOTICE has much better, zippier plots, but I certainly enjoyed the actors.

Oh that Daylight Saving CRAP!

It was last night here AND, thanks to that dreadful arrangement (NOT done by DR elmore!  ;)) I got to work 13 hours in a row, instead of 12!

Then I watched HOWARDS END on Blu-ray. It's not razor sharp. I suspect it was filmed just a little softly to evoke a long-gone era. Anyway, the image is spotless, beautifully colorful, and filled with detail. The DTS-HD MA 5.1 sound is marvelous, too. A really superlative Criterion release!

I started on the bonuses but didn't get very far. The first documentary is over 40 minutes long and I got barely through half of it before I needed to come up and do my afternoon surf. There are plenty of other bonus features to watch when I go back down, too.

Well, I guess I need to do a little writing. Then, it's back downstairs for the rest of HOWARDS END Blu-ray. I'll watch Friday night's MONK if there's time, and then tonight's episode of DEXTER.

Lazy bones.

Sung to the tune of Louis Armstrong's Lazybones


Actually, the tune is by Hoagy Carmichael with the lyric by Johnny Mercer.

And since those are the words, why would they have to be "sung to the tune of"?  Although, there's also a "Lazy Bones" by (Robin) Thicke.  Hmm...

I meant it to be humorous "Sung to the tune of"

And Mr. Armstrong sang it of course.

I didn''t remember that hoagy carmichael did the music thiugh
