Well, you've read the notes, the notes wrote what they knew, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they have no idea what to write because they know NOTHING.

A Very Happy "Eliza Doolittle Day" to Everyone!!

Good morning, all! And, yep, Happy Liza Doolittle Day!

The alarm went off at 4:45 and I got out of bed around 5:20; I need to get more of the Loesser score finished by June 1 so I'm currently juggling it with the final round of revisions for BABES IN TOYLAND, two Moross piano pieces, LIFE BEGINS AT 8:40 and the McGlinnventory. Yesterday, I worked at the law office until 2 pm, went out for a snack with Mark Kaufmann, one of John's oldest friends from Northwestern, came back here, read the mail, answered emails, and finished two more Loesser orchestra parts before passing out. Around 9 am, I'll leave for several hours at Toyland before coming back here to pick up the Loesser work again.

Morning all.

I have a meeting at 11am.

I have finished my oatmeal and coffee.

I will now shower and go to the office.

That is all.

I decided to take care of the BABES rewrites first. Now to Mr Loesser and the Napa Valley. I've got 90 minutes before I go, so maybe I can finish the horns.

Happy Little Hunting Horn

And then it was Wednesday! Yes the King has declared that it is Eliza Doolittle Day! I think this year she once again has asked for 'enry 'iggins' 'ead.

Jrand73 · « **Reply #9 on:** May 20, 2009, 05:23:30 AM »

Damn, now I want to see that show again......the SHOW, not the movie.

Jrand73 · « **Reply #10 on:** May 20, 2009, 05:25:50 AM »

Interesting notes - reading a book, much less WRITING a book, has become sort of a thing of the past....although NON FICTION books seem to do very well. And what with the innerweb, everyone has a forum today.

But as I told my friend Bryan many years after I volunteered to read for his theatre's Play Writing Competition - typewriters should be registered like guns....not EVERYONE should have one.

I don't think the results were that shocking. I think the pay schedule DR Cillaliz
posted was more shocking. I think that a) shawn was way more popular than
the other 2 who were not really celebs at all. Come on, an olympic champion vs
melissa who has been popular for 10 minutes and gilles who nobody ever heard
of. Plus mark is a better choreographer IMO (much better than tony). I think shawn
did the best on monday. Her dances were better, choreography better. The other
two were so strong on the first week. They were probably better dancers. But
shawn ended up at their same level. I was rooting for melissa. But i was fine with

I can't say who will win idol but it should be adam. Not happy with that last song. And i love "mad
world". But i do think it had much more impact the first time he sang it.

Dan (the Man) · « **Reply #13 on:** May 20, 2009, 06:20:53 AM »

I had considered calling in and voting for this Adam Lambert guy because I heard on Twitter that there were anti-gay forces out there that were campaigning to prevent his winning. But then I thought that I never cared about American Idle before so why should I start now?

Jrand73 · « **Reply #14 on:** May 20, 2009, 07:26:37 AM »

American Idol? Is that tired old show still on?

Yep, and still the top rated show on network TV.

Good morning!

The cool is still with us though today should be a tad warmer than yesterday and tomorrow will be warmer than today. I sense a trend here.

Matt H. · « **Reply #18 on:** May 20, 2009, 07:39:46 AM »

I will be wokring on the Blu-ray of FARGO today for my work project. I haven't seen the movie in several years, so I'm looking forward to revisiting it. And there aren't a ton of bonus features either, so I should have some time this evening to watch something for fun. I have very little to watch on the network TV side of things tonight. Most of my favorites are either off the air now (LIFE) or have had their season finales already (CSI: NY).

Matt H. · « **Reply #19 on:** May 20, 2009, 07:42:25 AM »

CBS has just announced its fall schedule. Some major shifts in favorite shows:

THE BIG BANG THEORY moves to Mondays at 9:30

THE MENTALIST moves to Thursdays at 10 after CSI.

COLD CASE moves to Sundays at 10.

MEDIUM was indeed picked up by CBS and will be on Fridays at 9.

As for new shows, the new Jenna Elfman comedy goes in at Mondays at 8:30 after HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER which returns to the 8 p.m. slot.

The new NCIS spin-off has been paired with its mothership to make an 8-10 p.m. block of NCIS.

Fans of MOONLIGHT's Alex O'Loughlin can enjoy him in his new show THREE RIVERS on Sundays at 9.

Speaking only for myself (of course), I've found Jenna Elfman TOTALLY RESISTIBLE as a comedienne and as an entertainer. Never found her remotely appealing in anything.

I, too, find her appeal lacking. I'm very glad she never got to New York in the talked about but never done revival of Sweet Charity.

Not a favorite of mine either. I was only reporting the TV news.

I had a bad allergy attack at four in the morning, so I really needed to sleep, but today was the day some cretins decided to do some work on the house that has sat empty and/or been lived in by suspicious types for the last two years - it's right next door and they were hammering right by my bedroom window. I'm going to mosey on over there shortly and find out just who they are and what they're doing and how long they're doing it and they better have good answers or I'm calling the cops because everyone in the neighborhood is baffled by the house, its occasional low-life occupants, and the sporadic work.
