I will not stay up past midnight tonight even though I've stayed up past midnight every night since last Wednesday.

Six hours today and we have 8 numbers to be read through on Saturday. We're printing out an original set of parts as she gave them to us riddled with errors and  some major editorial problems.  If the editrix gets uppity, I'm going to have the orchestra read the parts.  I look forward to her face when she hears the trumpets playing the melody in a different key from everybody else.

Poor Josh, who's stuck with correcting the errors, had a meltdown at 5 pm, and I understand the stress he's running under.  

I don't miss working in the theatre area on matinee days at all: a packed bus, an obnoxious kid who proved once again that kids in comas cause no problems and whose nanny should have put her in check.  I thought if she didn't stop yelling to her baby brother "hello, hello, hello . . ." over and over for at least 1o minutes straight I would pay the driver good money to run over her.

And now I'm home.

Nothing of significance to report from the land of OZ except:

DP Colin and I enjoyed watching "Show Business" last night. (and we've only seen one of the shows).

I am enjoying reading "Son Of A Witch".

I hope you continue to enjoy it.  :D
I'm reading the Repairman Jack series of novels by F. Paul Wilson and enjoying THE TOMB tremendously - it's a novel which I would heartily recommend to DR MBarnum.   ;)

Whatever happened to Baby Ron.

(I was listening to Debbie Burton's "title" song to Baby Jane just the other day).

I have seen THE SEARCHERS in repertory houses, on vhs, on laserdisc and on two dvd releases; next to RIO BRAVO, my favorite John Wayne movie.

I suppose the same thing that happened to Baby Rose Marie - whose VitaPhone short on THE JAZZ SINGER dvd is adorable!

You should at the very least see THE CONQUERER.  ;)


DR tomovoz, you HAVE to see MEET THE ROBINSONS.   ;)

I've not seen The Searchers but I do have a copy of "Caravans". I think the stories are supposed to be similar.

At least the soundtrack for "Caravans" is great listening.

The last typewriter I owned was the Brother Electronic AX-100.




I think that is the model I had, too.  I thought I had reached the peak of the computer age.

I'm not even sure that "Meet The Robinsons" has had a cinema release here.  I have ordered that and "Ratatouille" on DVD

JRand and George, you guys were very modern...this is the typewriter I owned during my Jr. high and high school years. In fact I had it until just after I moved to Salem.




This could be the reason that he only dates antiques.

We (as in my students) used the Brother electronics in the last years of "Typing Classes".
