Well, you've read the notes, the notes have made you ponder your brake pads, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're currently replacing their brake pads, which are unusually large - they have maxi pads, you know.

Very, very, very, very (that's four verys) impressive! No will ever be able to catch up (or even ketchup) with you!

I just put my shirts in the laundry. I got distracted in my bedroom, finding things hidden under my shirts (in a pile on the floor

...fortunately, nothing that was ever alive, just things). I dumped the pile on the kitchen floor (where the washer and dryer are) and went to the bathroom (just had to share

). When I came back shortly thereafter, the cat was all snuggled up in my pile of dirty shirts! Too bad. I just couldn't let her (the cat) stay there, so I carefully pulled one shirt at a time out of the pile and put it in the washer. By the time I got about half of the shirts out of the pile, she got the hint and moved. She's now eating and the washing machine has started. I guess I'll be up until it's done so that I can put all the shirts into the dryer so that I'll have dry (and clean) shirts to wear for the next several days.

Tomovoz, I sent off your package today! Let me know if anything arrives broken. I sent it in a "Star Trek: The Next Generation" box that was discarded from the library where I work. They repackage all of the boxed DVD sets, so things like this either get thrown away or saved by staff member who collect junk (like me).

I'm outta here.

Goodnight three guests!

All this talk of the remake of the Poseidon Adventure makes me think of the Mad Magazine take off which they called (and which I always think of when PA is mentioned) The Poopside Down Adventure.

It is supposed to be a record hot day in Manhattan (and all over New York City) so it would be easy to be SEDENTARY. I will be in office air conditioning and since it's already in the low 80s at 7:30 I told Anthony he could keep the AC on in the bedroom during the day. We only have one room with temperature-controlled air and to prevent a shocking electric bill we try to keep it off during the day. Today is an exception. It is supposed to be just as bad tomorrow but if the weatherpeople are to be believed, it will be better on Wednesday and through the end of the week. Here's hoping!

I know I have somewhere in my CD collection a Poseidon Adventure musical cast recording. I think it was called something like The UpSideDown Adventure.

Many Years ago I was at the Billy Rose collection at the NYC Public Library at Lincoln Center. I went into another room and there on the floor by the door was an Academy Award. I Picked it up and held it for a few seconds. It was Burl Ives oscar for The Big Country. I wish I had a camera. My friend was meeting me in NYC the next day and I told him to bring a camera so we could take a picture. Of course when we went back the next day it was gone. I wondered why it was there in the first place.

Well, I'm not dead yet, but I wish I were. Actually, I feel a teensy-weensy bit better today, though I'm now a low bass as opposed to my regular baritenor. That's good, though...means it's settling in my chest now and will soon be out of my nose. I'm calling in at work again today, which I really never, ever do.

Jose: I'm glad Joe got to go last night. I hope you guys had fun without me... *sob*

And now I'm off to blow my nose...again.

Congrats to Macchus999, whoever you are...

This week's trivia was not only fun, but educational as well. I did not know that Lt. Columbo's origins went that far back. I also learned that Thomas Mitchell died of cancer just seven months after the play closed. And that the creators of Columbo had originally offered the TV role to Bing Crosby.

IIRC (if I recall correctly), one of the New York Fringe Festival offerings in the past few years was a musical stage version of Poseidon Adventure.

You know, it is most inconvenient not having my computer at home and only being able to check in while I am at work!!

Vibes of health to DR Jason! Hope you start feeling better soon!

Thank you, MBarnum.

My bad Annie: any ANNIE.

I will be off to the wilds of Burbank, California in a mere three days. Saturday I will sit with Ms. Laurie Mitchell at her table and watch as she interacts with her fans and signs autographs...perhaps we will converse with Mr. and Mrs. Shirley Jones, our table-neighbors..perhaps not. I wonder who will be sitting on the other side of us? It will be lots of fun...I will get many autographs of various B-movie celebs and tv stars and will purchase many 8X10 photos for my collection and for use in my upcoming magazine interviews.

I am still trying to find a fun movie or play to go to on Sunday evening, but haven't found a thing.

I do hope that Mr. Bruce Kimmel will stop by and say howdy while he cruises the Ray Courts Show either Saturday or Sunday. If he brings a copy of the new Guy Haine's CD I might like to buy it!

Monday I shall hie myself to the center of Los Angeles...Holt Ave to be exact, where I shall take Carolyn (The Thing that Couldn't Die) Kearney and her husband out to breakfast...then I will maybe do some sightseeing and then make tracks back to the airport and return to Salem, Oregon!

And that is my itinerary!

MBarnum · « **Reply #27 on:** July 26, 2005, 07:01:38 AM »

Some of the people I am most excited to see at the Ray Courts show include...

Ms. Virginia Davis who played Alice in Wonderland in the 1920s Disney short subjects.

Former child actress Marcia Mae Jones.

HEAD OF THE CLASS star Tony O'Dell.

One time James Bond, George Lazenby

1940s actress Jean Porter

and 50s starlet Yvette Vickers

MBarnum · « **Reply #28 on:** July 26, 2005, 07:02:27 AM »

Tony O'Dell has aged quite well (he is in his 40s now)

Jose, I am so jealous that you went to Musical Monday at Splash last night. I love Musical Mondays and have been trying to get Rodzinski to come with me to check it out. Let us know if you want company the next time you go.
