I have a terrible habit of writing down phone numbers without writing down the name of the person to whom it belongs - i am always finding scraps of paper with unidentified phone numbers written on them

I include the names but unless I write down part of the conversation I haven't a clew who the person is.  This of course is only with folks I have just met.  I'm not that senile yet. ;)

At least you don't remember being that senile yet.

Had you not commented DR TCB I would have been disappointed in you. ;) :)

 I am that senile -- the big joke around the office  is that I cannot remember anyone's names when I wish to address them -- there are only 9 of us

I resort to saying "you - blonde girl" ---

at first they were getting insulted   and then my mother called one day and had no idea what my name was and had to introduce herself as my daughters grandmother


they realized then that the apple did not fall far from the tree

And I thought I was bad at names. ;)

There's even a Facebook page! The school's in Pittsburgh, I believe.


BK, I think you should drop in to the final performance - unannounced.  You could go to the cast party.

Excellent idea!

It's been a long long day but the meeting about the winter holiday in Appalachia went quite wonderfully. We're ready to begin a series of readings. My friend Kasey has said yes to playing the sexy new preacher on the mountain and I have a call out to Sara Jean Ford, who's playing Christine in PHANTOM at the moment, about playing the Virgin Mary.

And who is Kasey?

I knew that would perk you right up!

Does he have a last name?

Want the phone number, too?

Well, not that you are going to stop praying after 24 hours, but you know what I mean.

Well sure, if you have it handy.

There were some wonderful songs on the album "Charles Sings Strouse" that are not overly familiar. "Homeless" from "Lyle," "Too Young to Be Old" from "Lady for a Day" and "The Man Who Invented Ice Cream" from "Bojangles" are three favorites.

I've always been fan of "Those Were the Days" from "All in the Family," too.

Can someone get me mp3s of these songs?
Can one e-mail mp3s?

And productions happening in Australia and Montreal, Canada - the latter has it also listed as: Le cortex de la plančte X

I just tried to look up the one in Montreal. Have no idea where it is. But what I did read was that it will be in August. And that they will be alternating between French and English. And potentially they may have the same people play it in both languages.  I remember many years ago they had a big production of LES MIS and tried to do the same thing.

Yep. Pull them from your iTunes to desktop and open them in an email as an attachment.

I sent the songs plus a couple of extra, "I Want to Sleep With You Now" from "Palm Beach Story" and "Me, Oh My, Oh Man, Do I Miss Milwaukee" from "Lyle."

I never knew you could send music that way. It's easy. Almost too easy.

If you'd like to hear the song from "Nightingale" that George mentioned earlier, i have that, too. "Bring Back Birdie" and "Annie 2" as well as "Annie Warbucks."

I have all incarnations of Annie and sequel, and I issued Bring Back Birdie on CD on Varese.  I don't really have a soprano in our show, though, so I don't really need the Nightingale song.

I had quite a scare this morning.  I was trying to figure out what was causing the water on the basement floor and went into the furnace room.  I looked over and noticed that the vent from the gas water heater was coroded, separated at a joing and had holes in it.   In other words it was venting carbon monoxide into the basement!!    So, I immediately opened windows and called the plumber.  He came out with his handy roll of duct tape and made a few temporary fixes.   I had already decided to get a new water heater (the one here has a 6 year warranty and was installed in 1993).   He gave me a quote, but it seemed a bit high, so I waited until I could get to Home Depot and check out the prices.   I've decided his price is reasonable, so i'll call tomorrow and will probably get it installed tomorrow.  He said they will put in all new venting.  that's a good thing

I never did figure out the water.   I have the dehumidifier going and hopefully that will dry things out.  There has to be a leak somewhere, just not sure where
