Good morning, all.

I thought I had something brilliant to say, other than that, but I'm afraid it has totally escaped me.

Good morning, all! 

Today is a Jerome Moross day.  It will remain Jerome Moross day until I go back to work on Paint Your Wagon.  The project I'm working on is a new vocal score for his last(?) musical, Gentlemen Be Seated!, which was performed in a series of new operas by New York City Opera in 1963, with a cast including Dick Shawn, Alice Ghostley, and Carol Brice.  The show, which has dialogue scenes, is a minstrel show history of the American Civil War. The score is quite beautiful, and I'm sure that the outrageously funny mini-opera about the shenanigans of Confederate spy Belle Boyd trying to seduce generals for information was very funny with Alice Ghostlry as the spy:
   I spy! I Spy!
   I find it's easy as pie.
   Though I'm svelte and I'm slim and I never look mussed
   I've a whole filing system within my false bust.


I also have laundry today, and that's about it.

I don't feel well. :(

I had a small fever last night and couldn't stop shaking. My throat is hurting and I did not sleep very well (waking up every hour and being up half the night).

Any day could be a Jerome Moross day for me!

DR JRand64, I love Belafonte's recording of "Mary's Boy Child," but that Bryn Terfel arrangement is mighty cherce.

I always liked "The Temptations" movie. They show it on VH1 a lot.

I just read the posts from yesterday and reading "The Life That Late I Led" made me think of another song from "Kiss Me Kate" - how about a child singing "I Hate Men"? Start 'em young on down the man-hating road, I say!

Today, I started listening to the OBC of Side Show in honor (?) of the revival closing.  I have to say, "I Will Never Leave You" is the most silly concept for siamese twins.  "I will never leave you" -- well, DUH!

I was at the gym at 5:50am this morning.  The only chance I get to work out with my friend Kris (husband of my best girl friend), Always a chore to get up that early to get there, but always rewarding.

My mother worked for the USO, Entertainment Division, during World War II.  She always told me that the story of Glen Miller dying in a plane crash over the English Channel was created to protect his publice image.  She said that she was told that he died in the bombing of a brothel in Paris.  In the last few years, I have seen more and more biographers going with that ending.

I heard that story as well DR TCB.  There was also a book a couple of decades ago from an RAF pilot who said that on the way back to England, they were dumping their bombs, and later they realized they had dropped the bombs on Miller's plane that was flying below them.

Other stories say he was killed by the Nazis when he was flown to Germany for a top secret meeting with the German generals who wanted to end the war.....

Mystery.....

I'm up after only six hours of sleep, but they were a good six hours.  It's been drizzling out and hopefully that doesn't cause the gardener not to come - a little rain and he just thinks he doesn't have to show up, although I'm fairly certain he still charges Mr. Marsden for those days.
