Page three? Three pages?

I am enjoying reading the home town posts.....

Another favorite Detroit place - The Masonic Temple. It's auditorium was where I saw Peter, Paul, and Mary a couple of times, The Kingston Trio, and Bette Midler on her first concert tour when Barry Manilow was her pianist and Melissa Manchester one of her back-up singers.

P.S. to TOD:

I didn't mean to skip over the United Artists films. They were also mostly shown at the Carolina Theater, but the Plaza would also get them, too.

Here's the interior of the Masonic theater. If these photos are putting others into widescreen, I'll delete them...

Great photos, Ginny. Love those old theaters.

And I am home. I've been dealing with a plethora of emails: the Man From Philadelphia and I will be guests on a New Jersey radio show called Dress Circle on WWFM (http://www.wwfm.org/). The date has to be set.

As much as I loved seeing shows there, the Fisher Theatre lacks a bit of grandeur:

But the outer lobby of the Fisher more than makes up for the interior:

Ooo, I hope we get to hear it!

Piano tuner is very late - he'll be here in ten minutes but now I'm stuck here until at least one-thirty.

Excellent!

I see "Listen Live" on their web page, DR Ginny.

Am I missing someone? I just noticed that Ricky Martin, Paul Rudd and Matthew Broderick are the only known names outside of theater circles currently on Broadway. Could that explain why "Nice Work" made more than $1 million at the box office last week?

Just saw this:

Howard H. Scott, who was part of the team at Columbia Records that introduced the long-playing vinyl record in 1948 before going on to produce albums with the New York Philharmonic, Glenn Gould, Isaac Stern and many other giants of classical music, died on Sept. 22 in Reading, Pa. He was 92...

I didn't do a very good job of going E&T today. Looks like tomorrow instead.

I don't suppose G. Washington would have been very happy with the statue of him looking like he is just out of the shower.

ROTFLOL!

Greetings from Toyland. The pressure in my eyes is back to normal so Dr Moazed and I are both very happy.

Back to the charts!

GREAT NEWS!!!

And now I am off to Salem to have my daughter accuse my neighbors of witchcraft so that they will be hanged and I can purchase their property at bargain prices.

I grew up in Scottsdale, AZ, before Scottsdale became "Scottsdale." My house is 50 years old. This town started to really grow in the 50s and 60s. As Scottsdale spread north it became upper income. The people up north refer to us as "SoSco" now, since we are working class people and they don't want to be associated with us. We make sure we say we are from south Scottsdale, so people we meet don't think we are from the fancy part of town. Although I don't suppose mistaking me for an upper class person is very likely.

This is interesting to me. My only experience with Scottsdale was during a company trip which included spouses. We stayed at one of the posh "ranch" hotels. While the surrounding neighborhoods were nice I don't recall over sized homes.

TOD - Detroit, Michigan
I've only been back to the old neighborhood a few times, the last in 1998 to drive Rob (then age 12) past Mom's childhood home and schools. He was stunned, thinking his mother had grown up in the ghetto.

I was also very surprised to find how beautiful areas of Detroit were. One of my favorite activities I did while living in Bloomfield Hills was going on house tours. I toured some beautiful old Detroit homes.

Strange day at work. But work has been done. That is good.

Oh, my, I sat down in my recliner and fell asleep for about an hour...

Lucky you.

This has been one screwed up afternoon! Nothing is going as planned. I may go to bed and hope tomorrow is a better day.

Piano is tuned and he did some work on the hammers and knuckles because there were action problems. Two hours he was here. I had some tuna sandwiches for lunch right here, because he took so long.

Then at three-thirty I went to the mail place, deposited the annoying mail in the trash and was nauseated to find that my amazon package was not there yet - thank you Ontrac, truly the worst ever and I'm going to be calling amazon and railing on about it and will tell them I'll stop ordering unless it's sent via UPS - they're bad, too, but Ontrac is THE worst - when are they going to get there? Six?
