Well, you've read the notes, the notes had art and communicated, and now it is time for you to post until the communicating cows come home.
-
And the word of the day is: NERVURE!
-
A Very Happy Birthday to errant and truant DR der Brucer!! ;D
-
Topic of the Day:
"Nine"
I mean... "8 1/2"
:D

Good Morning!
Greetings from NYC!
-
I zonked out on the bus sometime around Baltimore, and when I woke back up I thought we were still somewhere on the Turnpike. Well, we were about to head into the Lincoln Tunnel! The bus driver made great time too!
-
And then my cab (driver) managed to catch all the (green) lights from 34th to 87th Street!
-
And now, more sleep.
Laters...
-
Morning all.
That is all.
-
Birthday wishes to dear DR der Brucer.
-
Any chance he'll drop in to get his birthday wishes?
-
Good morning, all! DR Jose, welcome back to NYC!
This is day of personal business at home: call Medicare and straighten out some things, schedule a barber appointment for tomorrow, call the Kurt Weill Foundation, and defrost the refrigerator. Yes, this is the day. I can no longer procrastinate. At 9 am, the project begins.
Thank you all for the vibes for my friend. He's a complete mess at the moment. Ron Raines' comment last night on our mutual friend is "I'm afraid he's headed over the cliff." I'm amazed at the choices he's made and the mess he's got himself into. "I am a camera" indeed! All I can do is watch, pity, and pray he'll get his act together, but I doubt it. Pray for him.
-
good morning, all.
-
Happy, happy, derBrucer!
-
More vibes for Elmore's friend.

TOD: Love the Italians.
Fellini:
I Vitellioni
Il Bidone
la Strada
Nights of the Cabiri (sp?)
8 1/2
Amarcord
And the Ship Sails On
Intervista
La Dolce Vita
Variety Lights
(Seriously, I am omitting the ones I don't care for, such as Casanova, which I couldn't get through, Satyricon and Juliet of the Spirits)
Rossellini, De Sica, Sergio Leone, Visconti, Antonioni -- you name 'em.
When I lived in Florida, my friend Deb would have people over for a day of Italian movies and Italian food. We'd watch three Fellini films and eat pasta, drink Chianti and have fun.
She now lives in Austin and brought up the idea just this weekend, so we may have to revive that tradition.

Prayers and vibes for the friend of DR ELMORE.
-
Such lovely photos of flowers and wedding guests and venues yesterday! Very nice.....
-
Tonight is another dress rehearsal....of Camelot.....so we shall see what we shall see.
I need to buy a long sleeved black undershirt at Goodwill today.....and then I will have everything I need....in the costume dept.

I used to be able to go to my history and click the link that would take me right to BK's daily column here. For over a year that link has utterly disappeared...there are links that take me to various stages of the Discussion boards, but the link that takes me to BK's column utterly disappeared. I have to reach it by typing in the URL or going to my favourites page. What happened?
-
Happiest of birthdays to DR der Brucer!

Good Morning!
I'm up, I'm up... And I'm posting via my iPad. -I decided to leave my laptop in Virginia this trip.

DR Pogue - It could be that your History is just reflecting more recent views and click-thrus. It could still be there, but just pushed down to the bottom of the list. -Especially if you haven't actually typed the URL address lately.
Just Bookmark http://www.haineshisway.com and that should take care of it. -It will also prioritize what comes up first when you start typing in "Haines.." in your browser's address box.

My computer mystery o' the day: Betsy was futzing with this netbook last night and managed to make the font on internet pages much bigger than it used to be. Now I'm smart enough (barely) to know to go into Display on Control Panel and make sure the font size is not set to large, and it wasn't. So I'm stumped as to what magic she did on this machine.
-
Well, this is truly weird. Betsy had told me to hold down CTRL and use the scroll wheel on the mouse to affect font size and nothing happened. Then she said rather curtly ;) "Are you in an email?" And I told her no, and she realized she had left out one salient piece of info, so I did that in an email and now fonts are displaying correctly. Ya learn somethin' everyday, I tells ya.
-
From last night:
Yes, DR Cillaliz, I'm watching BB! My favorite is Rachel, who everyone seems to dislike. My heart broke for Jordan last night. What a sweet sweet girl.
-
Happy Birthday to DR Der Brucer!

Happy Birthday to der Brucer!

TOD:
IL BIDONE

Here's another teaser trailer for my new book of short stories:
This story is called "Bugsy's Boys".
If you read my memoir, you should recognize that this yarn was inspired by something that actually happened to me.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0SM0W5FTUrk
BTW: The person playing "David Goodman" (me) is, in fact, my son (David), who graciously allowed me to use his photos for this trailer.
He's not a member of SAG, AFTRA or Equity, so I didn't have to pay him.
;)
-
My refrigerator is a mess! I'm taking a break from all the ice. It's ugly.
-
Here are Rob and Mary Linda at the conclusion of the Michigan bridal shower:
(http://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/283427_10150345214765049_537325048_9919247_313723_n.jpg)
-
The refrigerator is finished and so am I! I've crawled into a tub of cold water to shake off the sweat and cool down. I hope the fridge still works and in another hour I'll check the freezer to see if it's still working.
My barber appointment is set for tomorrow, and then I'll have lunch with Joshie somewhere around City Center. I spoke to Social Security and they advised me to call Medicare with my questions, which is funny since it's the Social Security phone number on the back of the invoice! So, that's my afternoon project.
-
Happy Happy Birthday, Dear Der Brucer!
-
I, on the other hand, am up.
-
And the word of the day is: NERVURE!
And The Song Of The Day Is: POOR BUTTERFLY

"It's a collander. . .it's a bridal headdress. Versatility like you've never before experienced!" ;)

One hopes there was a missing "y" at the end of of Melody's percentage in the notes. Or BK has seriously lowered the bar. ;)

Jose, I have haineshis way bookmarked and often just type that out to reach the site. It used to be when I when to haineshisway in my history fromthe previous day, it would show everyplace I had been on the site. It still does except for GK's notes. I have no idea why. I used to access notes through my history. I can't do that anymore. It's slightly inconvenient, but hardly insurmountable...I'm just curious, if anyone else has experienced this and why it not won't let me access notes through the history links.

Thanks to all for the vibes for my mom. She wound up not having her gall bladder taken out and is now doing time in a rehab facility until she is back to her independant self again (prolly another week or so.) In about five weeks or so, she'll return to the hospital to remove both her gall bladder and the stent in her bile duct.

Is she feeling better now, Dan (the Man)?
-
Medicare, Emblem Health (my HMO), and I are happily married now. I understand all the invoices now and I can sleep easy.
That's something good off my back.
And the refrigerator still works.
-
Is she feeling better now, Dan (the Man)?
Yes, she is, DR Laura. The drain bag on her gall bladder bothers her sometimes (the stitches that keep it in place, mostly.) But she's pretty much back to her self and is actually happy that she is getting daily physical therapy (though it wipes her out at the end of the day.)
I can tell she's getting better because she is already doing things she is not supposed to do yet (shuffling her wheelchair around her room and into the bathroom, getting out of and into bed on her own, etc.) But she does know her limits and I don't think she'll do anything foolhardy (at least I hope not...)

DR Elmore - your refrigerator probably works even better now that you've defrosted it. Be sure to keep your freezer full for maximum efficiency...

Happy Birthday, Der Brucer!

Back from the four-mile jog.
-
I just got a bootleg of the Ohio Light Opera JUBILEE: someone has revised all of my work concerning the three saxophones, which they do not have in their orchestra pit, and it sounds pretty god-awful. I'm rather happy I missed it, but i'm also bummed that this travesty is credited to me.
-
Hi Elan, good to see you
-
Hey, Mike Barnum, check your e-mail. I think you got hacked. I just got a message from you. I responded so you can see what I'm talking about.
-
I've rejected today's candidates for the role of Eileen, so we're back to the drawing board: three roles left to cast now: Eileen, Sir Reggie, and Shaun the smuggler.
-
I have to bus into midtown for dinner with a friend. We're meeting at Nizza at 44th and 9th Avenue.

Bird of paradise was my mother's favorite flower.

From Lara:
That didn't make sense. Dark doesn't affect my ability to post a photo.
What I mean is if it wasn't dark, I'd take a photo of mine and then post it.
It made perfect sense to me.

Good news. She should be stronger by the time she has surgery, on the other hand I bet she wishes it was over.

DITTO!

A very Happy Birthday to der Brucer! What is on the menu for your birthday dinner?
-
Sam, I would much rather see you give in to the temptation of food rather than alcohol. Going on a diet is easy compared to being in recovery. I will pray for you today.

And now I'm off to my storage unit!

Bird of paradise was my mother's favorite flower.
My mother likes bird of paradise so much that they were used for her corsage for my sister's wedding (almost 50 years ago!). Very challenging for the florist.

I had a terrible Monday. I got up late, when I got to the parking garage there was this jerk, who did have access to the garage until 6:00 a.m.. He kept trying his badge everry minute. I kept asking him to putll out and I would open the garage for both of us, but he refused to move his effin Lexus. Finally at six, the garage door opened and the parade of cars behind Mr. Lexus were allowed to enter.
Today the pain in my legs was almost unbearable, but I managed to make it through until 1:30. Then I came home, wet my pants, and I am now catching up on e-mails, posts, and Facebook messages.
-
Vibes for DtM's mom!

How long before it was 6:00?
I hope you have one of the convenient handicap parking spots.
-
Vibes for TCB.

Hi Elan, good to see you
Yes, indeed.

Those aren't mine. Just pix I found online. My is not flowering yet. Hopefully within the month, if the heat doesn't kill it.
-

It was about six minutes to six; but I could have gotten us all in earlier. I have 24-hour access, which Mr. Lexus does not have. Yes, I have a parking spot near the elevator.

Richard, Rob, and I went out to our local Greek restaurant for dinner, after which we were going to do errands at a couple of places. When we left Target, the skies looked so threatening that we decided come on home. We got here just as the rain started and now we're having a doozy of a thunderstorm.

Good Evening!
Well, I've had a rather productive and enjoyable day today back in Nueva York. And I had a few very pleasant and most welcome surprises come my way too this afternoon. :)
-
DR JMK - I believe those are Minnie Mouse Ears and Bridal Veil. Not a colander.
-
And the refrigerator still works.
...and you can now have cold beer and ice cold vodka again. ;)

And even though the forecast called for some "uncomfortably hot" temperatures today, I found it rather pleasant walking around today. I finally checked out the new extension of The Highline - Beautiful. And once I was at 30th Street, I just kept walking up to 59th to catch the train. -I had started walking from 4th Street. It felt great to walk that much of a distance again - which is not easy to do in DC since it's not really a "walking city".

~~~~~CONTINUED RECOVERY VIBES TO THE DEAR MOTHER OF DR DAN (THE MAN)~~~~~

And now I'm going to take a few minutes to pack my luggage for tomorrow. I pulled a bunch of things from my storage unit this morning. Most of it was brought down to the Textile Recycling booth at the Union Square Greenmarket, but I did pull some clothes and other items to bring back to Virginia. -Most importantly, the shoes for my brother's wedding!
My bus leaves at 7:30am tomorrow, and if I can have it all ready to go tonight...

My Dad was sent home from the hospital today but at the last minute my folks were advised that the special PT chair (dad had an artificial shoulder joint put in) that they were told would be coming home with them was not covered under their insurance - so now my Mom is calling all over creation to see if there is a way of getting one without costing them a fortune

Oh my, you have your priorities mixed up! It's teh cleaning that can wait :)
I wish I could. But I'm cleaning for the exterminator, who's coming later this week. Imagine that.

A very young Anthony Quinn is in "Waikiki Wedding." Silliness, but good music.

I'm watching a strange motion picture I TIVOd. And I just made a decision to do Nudie Musical as a stand-alone CD release when the blu-ray comes out. We've never actually had a release that was JUST Nudie that was available commercially. It will have the same contents as the CD that came with the DVD - i.e. the score and Grant Geissman's arrangements of same for the documentary - plus, I think I may be able to unearth a few interesting never before released tracks.

Night, all.

I just watched a movie starring both Keith Andes and Jeff Chandler, and am now suffering from beefcake overload.

A happy birthday to you DR DerBrucer!

I met my new neighbor in apt. 413 today. He was quite damp and sweaty from his jog...but seemed like a nice guy. He is from Utah and he is going to the university to get his masters, so he will be my neighbor for at least the next 2 years.

What goes on these days. What a bunch of WUSSBURGERS we have around here. Unbelievable. Eight o'clock comes and everyone, no matter what coast, is asleep. Doesn't make for much fun around these here parts. I, on the other hand, have finished with my viewing and am here for the duration.

I'll tell you one thing about this fancy-shmancy Apple computer I have - it has something like 500 gigs of something or other - it has a ton of memory - I use about 10% of that total. And yet if I download something it's like molasses.
-
Is it eight o'clock yet?
-
Time to sleep.

Good Evening!
Well...
I headed out earlier - after packing my luggage - to get a bite to eat. I decided to go to Flex Mussels, not only because I like the food there, but also because Zac Young from "Top Chef: Desserts" was in the kitchen tonight. We've met up a few times over the past two years at various foodie events, and because he was a musical theatre guy we have a bunch of friends in common.
As it turned out, my friends, Eric and Blake, were in the area and had just finished dinner, so they joined me there for drinks while I had my dinner. And we had a great catch-up session. Well...
Zac ended up sending out some desserts for us: his Chocolate Brownie Semifreddo Sundae, and some of his signature filled Doughnuts (Salted Caramel and Fluffer-Nutter). YUM!!!!
It was a most delicious and wonderful way to finish off my day back in NYC.
-
...And then we all headed over to Brandy's Piano Bar for a few tunes. :)
-
...And, yes, my bus is still leaving in six hours.
-
...And, yes, my alarms are already set. ;)

That sounds more like an issue with your Internet service. My brother has his home service "boosted"' and, boy, does that make a difference. *You may also want to check the download capacity of your cable(?) modem. They're not all "that" fast.

It's eight o'clock somewhere.

Oh, I guess if he's getting his Master's he must be too young for you. ;)

I'd make a comment, but, well... I think I'll wait for DR Elmore to catch up in the morning.

so foodies: what kind of sauce goes with lobster ravioli?
You could do a cream sauce or go with my favorite, aurora, which is heavy cream stirred into a tomato sauce.
DR vixmom - Yes, a "pink cream" sauce works wonderfully with lobster ravioli. If you want to keep it really simple, just sauté a few whole cloves of garlic in two sticks of butter, then anoint the ravioli with the garlic-infused butter. Maybe some dill or chives on top as a vegetable. ;)
-
Jose, why aren't you listed as part of the Creative Team?
I'm listed in the program and that's what counts. I also didn't fight(?) to be included in the program this time - at least in the bios - since I was not part of the original team in the Fall.
-
And the refrigerator still works.
...and you can now have cold beer and ice cold vodka again. ;)
Or Magnums!
Speaking of Magnums.... in our nutrition news letter under "food porn" I read all the reasons not to even try a caramel Magnum. They have coconut oil, corn syrup, etc & 330 calories & 14 grams of saturated fat.
And?
Yeah, DR Jane - And?

The cherries were so good that I bought tonight I'd love to have nothing else for dinner.
The peaches at the Greenmarket this morning were, once again, incredible! It was just too bad that their perfect state of ripeness meant that they would not travel well.
-
And since I need to be at the bus stop in five and a half hours...
Goodnight(!!)
-
If all goes according to Hoyle I'll be seeing Follies on Saturday night.

Cool! That's one definitely worth double-dipping. :D

Speaking of Anthony...his son, Francesco Quinn (http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2011/08/francesco-quinn-mourned.html), just died.

I would be a miserably ingrate if I did not log in to thank one and all for the Birthday Greetings.
