At least, that was MY experience.

I felt the same way this past weekend watching "The Mummy" and "The Mummy Returns"....both CDs are showcases for the HD DVD format, IMO.

Did anyone else watch FOLLOWING SEAN on PBS last night?  I have a vague recollection that this documentary was discussed here a while back but I haven't turned anything up in my searches.

In any case, it is a wonderful piece.  A film maker (Ralph Arlyck, who I honestly never heard of before) catches up with a man who he had interviewed as a four year old back in 1969 when they both lived on Haight Ashbury in San Francisco (the original interview was turned into a short film that evidently raised some hoo-ha because of some of they things that they young boy talked about.)  The doc traced not only the lives of the grown-up boy and his family but also of the film maker, himself.  I was channel hopping and caught it about ten minutes in but I was completely hooked.  Unfortunately, it doesn't look like it's going to be repeated any time soon.  I'm going to check to see if it's available on DVD.

DR Jason - You didn't get home until 5:00AM?!?!?!  OY and VEY!  At least you don't/didn't have a matinee to work today.  ;)

Alas, I received a telephonic call at 9:15 (!!!) from one of my favorite managers, begging me to work the matinee of BLONDE because he had two people call out, so yes...I do have a matinee. AND the evening show.

And why do I feel hung over? I only had Diet Coke!!

Guess I should start getting prettied up for work...  ::)

I awoke to the sound of hammering.  The hammering went on exactly long enough to insure I was up, then stopped.

I'm about to call the actress for the role of Joyce, although my casting person just called and said he was going to make the offer to her, so I said go ahead.  If she wants to do it, let's just say she'll bring some name value to our production - I've also always liked her and I'm sure she'll be fine in the role if she wants to do it.

Have left a message for said actress, and offer is out, too, so we'll see.  I have her cell phone but I really hate calling people I don't know on their cell because they're always in the middle of something or the signal is bad or they're in the subway or something jerky.

I have to do flap copy but am not in the mood at the moment, hence I'll do it after my 12:30 meeting.

We're also still working on one Brain speech, which I'll also try to do today - it's the last of the little changes and then we'll stop tinkering until rehearsals.

It's a bit overcast today, which gives a little respite from the oppressive heat we've been having.

Has Jose acknowledged that he's playing our auditions?  I'm very excited that he is.

I am also wondering if we should try to see ACL? We've never seen it...


I would definitely recommend it if you've never seen a production.  It's such an iconic show.

BK - I'm really looking forward to seeing Brain inbetween all the Starfighter stuff that will be going on that week.  I've been enjoying listening to the CD, and I think the score is really terrific.  It sounds like the show will be great fun to watch.

Pull out the t-shirts,
Turn down the thermostats for air conditioning.
Get out the ice cream,
It may not help much but our brows are glistening now-

For we need a little August,
Right this very minute.
Heat index of ninety,
Cream with sun-block in it
Yes we need a little swim suit,
Picnicking and laughter,
We need a little August now!

No call back yet from the actress, but who knows how often she checks her home machine.
