Back from storage and much lugging of boxes.  And here, in all its glory, is Ye Newe List - we have very low quantities of several titles, so order quickly:

For every ten ordered at one time, you receive one free CD of MY CHOICE (most people last time did their own choosing - but because of low quantities, that just doesn't work).  If you order twenty CDs, you also get free priority shipping.  Otherwise shipping is between 3.50 and 5.00 depending on quantity ordered.  

Don't dally on some of these titles.


I'm ordered!  Never disordered, but often uncomposed.

DR der Brucer - I don't know...somehow I had pictured you and DR SWW with 5 petit hounds.  But, from the pics, at least some of them seem quite large.  Glad you have a lot of space there!  :)

...Tomorrow, even though it's Easter, we have nothing special planned. No Easter Egg hunts, no bunny baskets, nada. It's nice actually.

Is that a bunny basket, or are you just happy to see me?

Tell me about it!

Marty - full name Martin Nuyer (we found him at the pound at New Years) - black Lab mix - 70 pounds.

Mikey - full name Michael Augustus Snipps (another pound puppy - they insisted on snipping him) - terrier/pug mix - 20 pounds.

Bonnie - full name Bonnie Bell Begonia - one of our street rescues - blonde, perhaps some basangi in her heritage - maybe 30 pounds now.

Buster (my buddy) - full name Buster Beauregard Begonia - Bonnie's brother, same heritage - my guess is between 35 to 40 pounds.

And Fletcher - full name Jeremy Be-Bop Fletcher - the overweight Dalmatian - 125 pounds!  Yep, him is a fat dog!

Added all my little fixes from my sleepless night, most of which worked really well and one of which made me laugh out loud.  

I still have a little to do, which I'll get to when I return from rehearsal, which I'm now on my way to.

I'll have to look, but Sondheim At The Movies is either gone or close to it.  I'll update upon my return.

All the snow has melted away.  An April snow.

(A Dorothy Fields reference, always appropriate.)

But it's still a good night for French Onion Soup, and a salad with a warm bacon vinaigrette.

We were quite busy at work today.  We've been quite busy at work all week.

A couple of ladies were upset that we would dare be open tomorrow.  Too bad - not everyone shares their religion.

We went across the street after the film to the same place bk had dinner.
I had a bowl of soup and iced tea.
Greg had a salad.
Susan had soup and salad and tea.
Terry had chicken pot pie.
Michael had a glass of fizzy water.
Ivan had tap water.

Total of the bill: $95!!!!


You should have stayed away from the tap water.

But thanks so much for your kind words about the CD.  they are much appreciated.


Isn't amazing how we tend to take things for granted.  As an actor, I know how important it is to hear from people that they enjoyed, were moved, were touched, or were delighted after seeing one of my performances.  And yet, sometimes, I forget that regardless of whether you are an insecure actor, like myself; or an extemely talented team like Fred and Skp, we all need to be complimented on our work.

So, if haven't said it enough, let me say it again....


I love THE LAST STARFIGHTER CD.

Glad to hear you liked BRUTE FORCE. I haven't seen it yet, but must do so. I do like Jules Dassin.

After not seeing some of his movies for many years and others like BRUTE FORCE not at all, I've become a big, big fan.

Thanks DRs MATTH & derBRUCER.   Yes, I was exploring those upper peninsula channels last night....almost shocking difference in picture quality!

On what station does Fritz take a shower?

I began my afternoon listening to the audio commentary on the BRUTE FORCE DVD by Alain SIlver and James Ursini. They offering up information on the filming, stories about the participants (including many who were later blacklisted), and analysis of Dassin's techniques in making the movie - what a good commentary should be. Really enjoyed it.

Still have some other special features to get to.

For a change of pace, I watched another WILD WILD WEST episode "The Night of the Watery Grave." The best thing about the episode for me was seeing a major heartthrob of mine - John Ashley - in a key guest star role as a Navy lieutenant. With the lush color that is featured in these episodes, let me say that Mr. Ashley has never looked sexier or more desirable. WHAT a gorgeous man!

"April Snow" has been on my mind all day. Dinner sounds yummy.

One more comment about BRUTE FORCE. One of the men who shares a cell with Burt Lancaster is actor John Hoyt.

Now, I've seen John Hoyt in films and television shows for decades, and always thought he was a a wonderful actor - commanding, authorative, even sneaky and devious when the situation called for it. But I never thought of him as a sex symbol or even a man who would have had a decent body at all. At one point during the film as the men are getting ready for bed, Hoyt has his pajama top on part of the way. The body he displays practically made me gasp for air!

If I remember to bring it back upstairs tonight when I log back on after evening viewing, I'll do a frame capture and show you what I'm talking about. Those who know who he is will be equally amazed, I think.
