Do you really want to get DRs FJL and Ron Pulliam started again?   ;)

My new 2-DVD "The Sand Pebbles" has arrived.


I'm satisfied.

What?  Just because I said that Max, who's playing Danny in the Grease revival, would make a good Doody?

Whatever happened to the young actress (starlet?) named Allison Doody?

The one I really like is reasonably paced and has a snippet where Brenda answers a comment about ruining a wedding with a smart quip.
The other is a quick cut and paste job that moves so fast it's hard to focus on any particular image - I'll try and pay more attention.

Ha! The quick cut one was done by the department head that likes to go in and "play". We had cut a "new season hype" spot, but she wanted  to see what her editor could "bring to the table".

Her editor cut her spot from a DVD and then I had to go back into about 60 or 70 dailies tapes to find the actual shots that were used in the edited show (we didn't have the online yet.) There were tons of 3 and 4 frame edits, and she had reels with those same scenes, but no....she had to find the exact scene her editor had used, because of course those three or 4 frames wouldn't have the same emotional impact as the ones on the clip reels. That was torturous but I did it.

Of course, she would chalk it up to both of us being "old" and that she wanted to do something edgy. And she only submits her own spots for awards, and will make us keep repurposing her spot so you will be seeing it for awhile.

I'm still at work but this has cheered me up. ("I did that groom a big favor." is the quote, I think. It's the hilarious third episode, which is followed by a tragic and deadly serious 4th episode.)

Today has been quite interesting.  I've spent time with:

-a Russian environmental scientist looking for funding to translate a book

-the library's early literacy specialist

-a public school teacher who runs an urban volunteer program for high school students

-a counselor from a local university who wants me to do grants training for her staff

-a community organizer who's helping someone secure a piece of property for a new nonprofit

And, I've successfully used our brand new self-check system to borrow an audiobook  ;D

Congrats...especially on the self-check system.  We've had them here at our library system for a couple of years and it seems to be catching on.  Patrons and employees really like it.

Good news just came in on the musical theatre project: our formatting of the new scores has been approved, which means we will not be closing down.  Now if we lease on the new office signed, we're good to go for a while!

Maybe I'll start sleeping easier.

Congrats to you, too! ;D

That's the one - it gives nothing away, highlights Brenda's appeal as a character, and makes me want to tune in.

Today I got the book "The Letters Of Sacco and Vanzetti"  I'm really looking forward to reading it

Dear BK and dear Dear Readers,

Do you have a lucky pencil, pen, crayon, or other writing implement?

LOL-I would be afraid to, knowing it would disappear eventually.

Who at school has a lucky crayon?

BTW - I saw the new office today after the new carpet was laid.   It looks great!  I am going to get a key and can start moving in the week after I get back.  Tomorrow I'll call the movers and the furniture store to make the arrangements on times and dates for delivery.  Cool beans, this is getting closer to reality all the time!

Oh, I don't know. Probably somebody somewhere has a lucky crayon.

A couple of weeks ago, I had a (somewhat long and involved) question about the score to "The Creature Wasn't Nice," but I can't remember what it was all about...I hate it when that happens. :P

So, I'll try to remember what it was, but if I don't...oh, well. :-\

I remembered my question for ASK BK DAY!  I had actually copied it to a Word document and saved it...here it is:

BK, I have a question about the score to "The Creature Wasn’t Nice."  In the liner notes, you wrote about David Spear not wanting to listen to the temp track that you had put together for the film and you didn't make him listen to it and that the main title theme that he wrote wasn't the right style for what you wanted.  Assuming that David has since seen the movie, does/did he agree with you that the opening theme wasn't right for the opening?  Is there any possibility for David (or even you) to rewrite or adapt it so that it's closer to what you had originally wanted?  Assuming that money is no object, would either of you have the time or even the interest to do that?

Today, it was operational only in the audio-visual department and they were handing out chocolate to people for trying it.  Tomorrow we go live at the main desk, where people check out books.  Reserves are now self-serve, too.

If you're in Crystal City, you're just one exit away from Signature via I-95.  Alas, Signature is not subway accessible, so a cab would be your most convenient way to get there.

Thanks, DR Jose for the transportation information.

I'm so thrilled for you starting as a sub for A Chorus Line!  Are you likely to know in advance when you'll be "in" or is it more of a spur-of-the-moment thing?
