Well, you've read the notes, the notes were active, had a brain, and had a syndrome, and now it is time for you to post until the active cows come home.
-
And the word of the day is: ANTHOPHILOUS!
-
And now - Dino at the piano.
-
Actually, I have a proverbial sliding door.

T.O.D.
I think I came here in 2002. My friend, Sharry, had asked me if I had any idea where she could find a mailing address for Jerry Herman. I told i would see what I could find on the internet. I was searching, and one of the sites connected to Mr. Herman was this site. I have no idea why, but I came here and never left.
-
A lot of memorable events, but really, the bottom line is the people who are here now and those that have left us for one reason or another.

First post after Tom. ;)

About finding HHW, I wrote this on November 09, 2004, 02:27:14 PM:
I, too, will not attempt to imitate BK's inimitable style. I started coming to HHW sometime during the summer after it started (June or July, I think). I didn't know about The Real A on sondheim.com, only BK's notes on FA. When that site no longer proved welcoming, I drifted without direction until I found HHW. I've been coming here ever since (except for when my computer permanently crashed in April of this year and I had no easy access. I wasn't able to spend ALL of my time at work on HHW...that would be unseemly ::) ).
Anyway, meeting Jeff (and Jeff's wife and kids), Mike (MBarnum) and Jane a few months ago was a thrill. Hopefully, we can have another PNW HHW gathering that will include Jed, Ann and Tom (TCB)*. Maybe BK can take a field trip to the Northwest!**
*We eventually did.
**BK eventually did, too.

And now, I must sleep.
Have a good day, all!
-
Good morning, all!
-
My HMO has a message system which is how I communicate with my various doctors. In the 25+ years I have used my pharmacy, which is not a big franchise, but a mom & pop store, I have neither expected nor requested an alert when my prescriptions are ready. However, I do expect my doctor to reply to my messages.
-
If she had replied something along the lines of "They've been sent to your pharmacy," all would have been fine.
-
Today I must work on this choral piece. I would like to finish it by next weekend.
-
And I slept quite well last night. I still wonder when this long streak of poor work and income will end and I continue to worry about making those payments by the 18th. It's difficult to live on the hope that tomorrow that Ohio property will actually sell as it is to expect s lottery win.
-
Good morning, all.
-
I don’t feel like leaving a warm, comfy bed. But I must.
-
After I fed the cats, I went back to bed, but Stella kept climbing over me and Thatch chattered away in the cat tree that sleep was impossible.
-
Good morning, all.
-
And..... I see that I’m at 5% battery power on the iPad, so I must needs put it on the charger and return later via a nice fresh laptop.
-
Sunday morning weekend vibes for all in the meantime!
-
Sunday.
I am going with my uncle who has decided he wants to buy a new house.....because he likes it.....nothing wrong with his current home....but he would likes this house more.
It really is a bargain. It is very BIG....and he is 78 years old....but still quite active....so we shall see.
-
DR TCB didn't comment on his dream interpretation.....
Or pay me my $35.
Yes DR TCB.......MOST..... HA!
-
Today is the birthday of my brother Macbeth. I will celebrate it by ignoring it as much as I can.
-
Good morning!
-
DR George: I would like to take you up on the offer of a DVD of 42nd Street. Thanks in advance!
-
I'm up, I'm up - maybe seven hours of sleep and awoke to a message that our Mrs. Stanley had a car accident and will not be at rehearsal this day - she's fine but is going to get checked out. I have yet to have a single rehearsal where everyone has been with us. I believe TWO people are out today - our Professor Metz is as well.
-
Vibes for Mrs. Stanley.
-
Sunday afternoon greetings! Sorry to have missed yesterday's HHW anniversary. I worked the Holiday Bazaar in the afternoon, took a long nap when I got home, ate pizza with Richard for dinner, and spent the evening at my craft desk.
-
Wishing everyone a good Sunday.
-
So, DR Elmore brought me here after I spent some time with him in NYC and he talked a lot about this great online group. I lurked for a while, then successfully answered a trivia question posted by DR JRand and the rest is history.
-
Allow me.

Thank you. Thank you all.

Oy! Welcome to my world. (See what I did there?)

Up from a small nap. A longer nap is called for. But it ain't happening today.

Hello all
-
I went to church where I acted as communion assistant and had altar guild duty
-
Then I bought egg sandwiches at Ricks deli and brought them home to Vixdad who had a pot of hot tea waiting
-
Then back to church fir a deacons and assisting minister meeting
-
Then off to meet a work friend for a paint nite event
-
Back from rehearsal and some pizza from the local pizza jerky.

Some moron posts about the death of Meadowlark Lemon - as always just shares what he sees as if it was new - without even clicking to see the how, when, and why of it. I called him on it. What does Mr. Moron do? Admit it? No. Doubles down and says "I didn't know it happened." Well, had you clicked on the article you would have seen that this happened four YEARS ago in 2015. And every moron friend of this moron's is acting like it just happened, my favorite of which was the Big Moron who actually posted, "How sad, I just saw him play last week." And then this guy tells in all CAPS to shut up or I'm gone. I made a final rather scathing post, told him I didn't need HIM to tell me to be gone, unfriended and blocked. One less moron. And remember, these morons friended ME at some point, not the other way around.

I like those colors DR VIXMOM.
-
Did everyone hear about Meadowlark Lemon?
He's still dead.
-
It was a very nice house. Lots of nice vibes.....not a lot of yard - which he doesn't need.
Very well taken care of....and as I said a BARGAIN. So I am hoping they accept my uncle's offer. There were two couples there neither of whom seemed particularly interested, although may have just acted that way.....
-
We shall see.
My sister and I were talking to the real estate agent. It turns out she lives just two streets away from me.
She graduated from our local high school....probably the same year or the year after my sister Molly....
She asked me when I graduated and I told 1968....and she said her brother did, too.....Steve....who I knew.....and who just happens to be married to our cousin Debbie....
Small towns.....

Hell, I don't even know who Meadowlark Lemon is.

He was a famous sportsball person DR ELMORE.

Since my chemotherapy, I have been getting skin tags.
I finally found some Tea Tree Oil in a roll on bottle and have been using it. It really dries them up.....takes some time - three or four weeks - but it works.
-
Good evening.

Oh goodness. This isn’t even possible.

Perhaps we will have a rush of people in the evening hours?

Thanks for the tip. I have a couple I'd like to get rid of them.

Went to coworker Krista's today. She was throwing a birthday party for her husband. I got to play with their twins, Olive and Eli.
-
His brother was smoking chicken, sausages and brisket. Excellent food and side dishes.
-
Then I stopped by Half Price Books, which was having a 50% off sale on a single item. I found a Criterion set of Claude Autant-Lara films from the 1940s that look really good.
-
I also found the English National Opera's version of Street Scene, a copy of Brahms' First and a Rossini opera called Armida that I know nothing about (but it was 3 CDs for $2).
-
Three!
-
And now I'm watching Booksmart. Some of the jokes are really LOL funny and really crude.
-
Booksmart spoiler alert:
Had to laugh at the soon-to-be high school grad who tells a girl that he really wants to make millions from designing airplanes and then use the money to produce new musicals.
"Enough with the revivals already," he says.
-
What is this page three malarkey?
-
Finished with my viewing.
-
Listening to music.
-
Found two interesting photographs in Getty Images. Will post them in the notes.
-
All is ready for the new CD announcement.
-
All is ready for page four.
-
Except for a few posts.
-
I have now started a Philippe de Broca film from the '90s called On Guard, a lavish French swashbuckler. Looks like fun.
-
Hello, everyone.
-
I've been watching THE KING AND I. It's not my favorite musical, but it was a fine production, with some excellent voices. I've always liked Kelli O'Hara, too.

I bumped into Jrand there and we said hello.

Glad to know about this. I used to get a lot of skin tags. The dermatologist zapped them. It wasn't fun. I have tea tree oil here. It's not a roll-on, but it should work. You dab them daily?
-
And where is page 4?
-
Going to watch Deadwood the Movie at Thanksgiving.
-
Needed a few comedies to balance it out.
-
I picked out two Harold Lloyd comedies, Lubitsch's Cluny Brown and Local Hero as possibilities.
-
We spend as much time on what movies we'll watch as what we'll eat.
-
They're fun visits.
-
TCB, are you feeling better?
-
Hi, Jeanne.
-
Have you had a good weekend?

Health vibes to BK and cast and crew.
Lots of Sambucol all around.

Health vibes to all DRs and their families, too.

Hi, John G.
-
Heard a favorite joke the other day: What is a Scottish gentleman?
-
Four!
-
I've had a relaxing weekend, which was needed.
-
You sound like you've been busy.

Answer: A man who can play the bagpipes but doesn't.
-
Health vibes to all DRs and their families, too.
I'll second that.

Well, I ushered at the last performance of Songs for a New World.
-
It was probably the biggest crowd (close to 50, I think), and they loved it!
-
PAGE FIVE DANCE!!
-
We are in L.A. for the night. We made a quick trip down to attend a 70th birthday party.
-
So, one idea for word-of-mouth advertising for Songs for a New World that the producer had was to give people who saw the show a business card sized poster of the show. They would put their name and contact info on the back of the card and then give it to someone who would then come to see the show and put the aforementioned card in a bowl for a drawing.
-
There were at least 70 adults and close to 10 children.
-
At the intermission of the last (today's) show, a name was drawn and that person (who gave the card) won a $40 gift certificate to a local restaurant, Octapas Cafe (https://octapascafe.com/). Well, I won the gift certificate! ;D
-
I didn't go to the restaurant after the show today. Margo and I went to McMenamin's The Spar. That was good because we each ordered the Happy Hour half Caesar salads, and the cook didn't read the ticket correctly and gave us both the full sized Caesar salads!
-
The waitress explained what happened and said that since it was their mistake, we get the big salad for the small price! Score!
-
We also got the two Happy Hour Cheeseburger sliders (one for each of us). That's become our usual at McMenamin's whenever we're there during the Happy Hours (3-6 pm, and 10-closing). :)
-
We are in L.A. for the night. We made a quick trip down to attend a 70th birthday party.
Happy Birthday to Whomever!
-
We enjoyed visiting the wife's family we have known since we were around 24.
-

Wow! I don't think I've ever been to a birthday party with that many people in attendance.
-
We enjoyed visiting the wife's family we have known since we were around 24.
That's pretty cool.
-
Whomever is our friend I met the same day in high school drama as the day I met Keith. We were all 15.
-
All his siblings were there including the one that graduated high school with Bruce.
-
I remember hanging out at their house with Keith and former DR Penny since our friend was chosen by his little sister to be her baby sitter. She liked all the attention Penny and I gave her 😊
-
Of course I enjoyed visiting with his siblings. I also got to meet his sister's grandaughter whi is named for our friend's dear mother.
-
For the first time I met the very nice father of the little girl. I believe a few of you saw him in his award winning performance on Broadway ;)

True.

Been listening to music after my viewing. Major new composer discovery. I've discovered a few great ones this year, and this guy is at the top of the list.

I already made our two new titles live for anyone who wants to grab them.

I've been watching THE KING AND I. It's not my favorite musical, but it was a fine production, with some excellent voices. I've always liked Kelli O'Hara, too.
I watched it tonight, as well. I don’t know if it was the PBS station or the recording from my cable company, but I had a great deal of ghosting during the broadcast. Most annoying.
-
John G., did you see the Lincoln Center production of THE KING AND I, or do you just not like Kelli O’Hara at all?
-
I had a great deal of trouble understanding Ken Watanabe’s qqwords during his songs. But I thought his performance was wonderful.
-
Well, I guess I missed George. I was going to congratulate him on winning the prize. Oh well. Good night.
