I just read the news report ....and I recognized the name.

She and I worked in some files together over the years...

What a terrible tragedy

It must have been a shock to know her

I have not read Jo Nesbo's "Macbeth" yet. I didn't realize it is part of the Hogarth Shakespeare project which gave 8 authors a chance to recreate one of the Bard’s classic plays. http://hogarthshakespeare.com/

There is one author, Gillian Flynn, still to publish a book.

Macbeth is 88 pages long. Jo Nesbo's Macbeth is 500 pages long.

I didn't care for Anne Tyler's take on Taming of the Shrew, but I loved Margaret Atwood's Hag-seed, which is The Tempest.

I think I should read the 88 page Macbeth instead

DR John, and thanks for the feedback on the books you read.

I had not seen the update on DR Ron's mother. She is worse today than yesterday. I hope she pulls through.

Sending her more good vibes!

Cast for the May Kritzerland is finally set - Karen Morrow is one guest - she's going to reminisce about Grass Harp since we just put that out. And in the fun department, our other guest is Don Most (formerly Donny Most) from Happy Days - we've been trying to work this out for a while and May did the trick.

That's pretty cool! Congrats, BK!

Watching a motion picture on the computer - we're doing a soundtrack release that's wildly out of film order and it's never been very effective as a listening experience despite it being a wonderful score. So, if the licensor will allow it, I'm going to reorder it in film order.

Good! I hope they agree. It seems that a lot of the Disney animated musical soundtracks have all the songs first, and then the instrumental tracks. I really don't like that. I've come across a few sites where people have listed these tracks in the correct film order and to me that makes it a more enjoyable listening experience.

But I have to go eat now.

Pizza. If you must know. And you must, you must.

Hope it was good. Tonight at my sister's, we also had pizza for my niece's birthday. It was all quite delish.

Well, I finally get to leave work. It's my niece's birthday and everyone is at my sister's house (and has been since 4:00!), but I've been in a meeting since 1:00 pm. But no more!

Be back later!

Happy birthday to George’s niece.

Thanks, John! It was a simple celebration just with family...as usual.

Now I can't get The Manhattan Transfer "Twilight Zone" song out of my head.

(it has a favorite fake rhyme: Unpretentious / girl from Memphis )

And now my anal retentiveness must rear its ugly head: the full song is called "Twilight Zone/Twilight Tone." First, they do a variation on the Seasons 4 & 5 intro to The Twilight Zone:

Spoken:
With a key, you unlock a door to imagination
Beyond it is another dimension
A dimension of sight
A dimension of sound
A dimension of mind

You're moving through a land of both shadow and substance
Of things and ideas
Guiding you through this wondrous journey
Is the hypnotic sound of the twilight tone

And then the song proper is actually called "Twilight Tone":

When I hear this melody
This strange illusion takes over me
Through a tunnel of the mind
Perhaps a present or future time, oh oh

Out of nowhere comes this sound
This melody that keeps spinning 'round and 'round
Pyramidal locomotion
From a mystic unknown zone

Hearin' the twilight
Hearin' the twilight, twilight tone

Unpretentious girl from Memphis
Saw the future through her third eye
People came with skepticism
Picking, testing her precision, no, wo, oh, oh

Suddenly they heard this sound
This melody that keeps spinning 'round and 'round
A signpost up ahead is calling
Through the mystic unknown zone

Hearin' the twilight
(Twilight swept away, feelin' the rhythm)
Hearin' the twilight
(Twilight swept away, ba da, loo da, ba da loo da)
Hearin' the twilight, twilight tone

Hearin' the twilight
(Twilight swept away, feelin' the rhythm)
Hearin' the twilight
(Twilight swept away, ba da, loo da, ba da loo da)
Hearin' the twilight, twilight tone

Spoken:
Submitted for your approval
One Mr. Miller, who's about to take a trip
Into oddness and obsolescence
Through a zone whose boundaries are that of imagination
Accompanying him on this journey is the mesmerizing
Sound of the twilight tone

Sung:
On a cold and rainy night
One Mister Miller had a rare flight
Glen was up there boppin' a rhythm
Then the engine stopped to listen with him play that beat, oh, oh

Suddenly he heard this sound
This melody that keeps spinning 'round and 'round
Now, he resides and plays trombone
In the mystic unknown zone

Hearin' the twilight
(Hearin' the twilight)
Hearin' the twilight
(Hearin' the twilight)....

I've never seen this before!! Thank you!!

You're very welcome, Vixmom!

What's really cool is that a few years later for their music video for Blee Blop Blues, they set it in an episode of I Love Lucy! They very accurately recreated the set and became the characters...and it completely works!

Today was Dental Day again, and hopefully the last of the abscesses and root canals is behind me. This was my twelfth dental visit in the past six months. There's other dental work to be done--OF COURSE!--but, short of an emergency, I'm taking a break from it for a bit. My bank account needs to recover. As do I.
