Good morning, all! I have about 45 minutes before I leave fro the NYU Dental Clinic, so let's have another cup of coffee!

After the clinic, I will drag my butt to Toyland and continue with the final Act One edits.

That's my day.

TOD:
   Piano: Arthur Rubinstein, Robert Casadesus
   Violin: Yehudi Menuhin
   Cello: Yo-Yo Ma

FYI, for anyone who might be interested, or just haning around the magazine rack at Borders, my interview with the lovely actress Jewell Lain is in the March issue of CLASSIC IMAGES.

Jewell appeared in TONS of television in the 50s an 60s as well as radio work in NY and starring roles in the films CRASH LANDING (1958) and SUICIDE BATTALION (1958)

Here she is with co-star Roger Smith in the disaster flick CRASH LANDING.

I, too, can't remember the TOD shifting on a Wednesday but I'm a hip, 1970s kind of guy. I can go with changes.

TOD: I've seen Itzhak Perlman perform several times and conduct once, so I guess he qualifies. But I don't think that I have any recordings because of the performer, except for Gould's Goldberg Variations.

And  here, I thought no year could top 2010 (lots of reasons why I've been a stranger) for nuttiness, and then 2011 comes along. Despite my wrist, a broken boiler in the theatre (2 weeks no heat!) but fixed in time for opening night, snow storms, etc., Inherit opened to great reviews, standing 0 each night for the first 4, now final four performances this weekend -- then we're done (Cason and I co-directed). I'll try to get Case to post some photos of the set and cast in action.

The wrist thing happened a week ago Monday, finishing up set and prop stuff in time for Press Night -- ice masked by snow as I went to the construction shed out back to get some stuff we had made, went down and the arm hit a rock hidden by the snow. Bad enough break to require surgery. Got a little plate and some screws in there so the mend will be a little more complicated, but I'm doing fine and can actually do more than I realized left-handed. The show must go on ....

The payment was the tip of the iceberg for dreadful occurrences in my current life. Toyland was shut down today so four friends and I are now unemployed. I don't know if this is a permanent or temporary state but I do know that it wasn't entirely unexpected.

I am now considering my options.

elmore, you seemed so busy lately - many projects for solo artists, Where's Charley and all your other stuff.

Too many jobs in the past couple of months, and one's been really aggravating lately. The Toyland work was something that came and went in volume depending on my colleagues and their outside projects. I can only edit what's given to me, and even my notes, reports, etc. often depend on another proffreader/editor to look over what I've done. What I don't know about the Toyland shutdown is if it will start up again and when, or what of the incompleted work - besides my personal books, piano, ephemera - belongs to me.

Sound check was fine.  The singer who provided yesterday's drama didn't show up - since she's never been in the Gardenia that's a little problematic.  She eventually got there but we'd already left fifteen minutes earlier after having been there an hour.  She had a call back for something at two - she said she'd get there early, which I doubt she did.  But even so, call backs for commercials don't take an hour and she was literally five minutes from the club.

Wednesday evening greetings!  Would anyone be surprised to learn that I spent last night and all day today at Miami Valley Hospital?

One of the things my cardiologist had told me to watch for was shoulder pain and Monday evening my left shoulder began to hurt.  I finally talked to the cardio's nurse late yesterday afternoon.  She thought it might not be a bad idea to have it checked, so Richard and I drove to Miami Valley.  If I'd been having the symptoms I had Aug. 3, we'd have called 9-1-1 and gone to our local hospital, but this didn't seem so urgent and I really wanted to be treated by my doctor and his colleagues.  They pretty much determined in the ER that I was not having a heart attack, but kept me overnight and did the stress test today that had been scheduled for March 14.  I passed that with flying colors and am really glad to have it behind me.  Seven minutes on the treadmill, top speed 3.4 mph, max heart rate 180.  Got home about 6:30 tonight.

You don't suppose there might be some stress residing in my shoulder, do you?

Thank you all for the vibes. I've drafted an email to the Master Toymaker but I don't know if I will send it. It's quite angry and maybe says more abut my anger than anything positive. I wanted the project to work, vainly speaking, because I wanted to be a published musical theatre historian and scholar, and I wanted to parlay it into a lecturing career.  I do my work well and I do it better than most. It's one of the few areas where I'm not insecure.

I was not admitted to the hospital as an in-patient, but in outpatient observation status.  It's all about insurance, but I got to spend about 18 hours in a room in the new heart tower that opened in December.  The rooms are all private, which is a huge improvement over the rooms in which I spent my first and last 2 nights there last summer.

(I don't actually understand this - by the way )  but Vixdad said it meant that they could access sites and if anyone traced it back it would show MY computers IP address not theirs...


anyway since MacAfee was completely unable to not only stop the virus but unable to notice it was there once I got it - Vixdad has added many more layers of computer virus protection  to my computer - however it has slowed it down to a crawl and yesterday evening made it impossible for me to post at all

Don't send the letter, Elmore. Who knows, you may want to add some vitriol in a few days' time.

This employer has been a pain in the derriere for 10 years. I have lots of vitriol!
  but on the other hand this pain has been an employer for 10 years.....

And I've been a good employee for ten years. I don't like the way we've been treated.

 I know - am I am sure you are right - but as I have been forced to remind myself numerous times -- there's that old golden rule....


thems what's got the gold makes the rules

I just finished cleaning up the kitchen from dinner (pork chops, roasted potatoes, corn and apples cooked in white wine, butter and brown sugar) and all I can think about is making french toast

So, are you vested after 10 years? Is there a retirement plan? Anything extra?

Elmore, that story does little to show Julie Taymor in a good light. Then again, TED does a lot to show people off to a pretentious disadvantage.

Tonight, we had a music rehearsal for Cannibal! The Musical!  I'm only in three songs, and one of them is only two pages long, so those will be easy to memorize. :D

Back from a wonderful show - beautifully performed.  Not as full as usual, but that was basically because of the rain - all our dinner reservations showed up and the main part of the room was completely full.  The people who didn't show up at all were all show-only reservations - about twelve people - had they, the room would have been completely full.
