And, yes, we did have a fun and funky waitress at Fred 62. Her name was "Talia", and, yes, she was named after Talia Shire. -Which, of course, led bk to tell her about David Shire. Etc., etc., etc....

What a coinkydink!  Last night (just a couple of hours ago), my friend Margo and I went to Red Robin and like BK, I had fish and chips for dinner.  And another coinkydink, we had a funky and funny (and flamboyant...if you know what I'm sayin' ;)) waiter named Brandon.  It turns out that Margo and Brandon sort of knew each other.  He used to work at a local Hollywood Video (before it closed) that Margo went to and they recognized each other.

Saturday morning greetings!  We had a fun Friday evening with Rob and Mary Linda.  First we met them at the Verizon store where Richard and I were shopping for iPhones for each other and we thought Rob would be able to ask astute technical questions and explain the answers to us.  His only input was to ask Siri "What is the meaning of life?" - for which the Apple engineers have devised a cute answer.  Jason, the salesman, was much more helpful and we are now the proud owners of all the peripherals for the iPhones that are being shipped to us.

We then proceeded to The Meadows for Richard's belated birthday dinner.  Nothing fancy, but always a good meal in a convivial atmosphere.  We were concerned, though, at how unbusy they were for a Friday night.

Today, my friend Joseph Rubin is coming over to listen to God knows how many of the 102 Victor Herbert songs we recorded, so I've got some cleaning and tidying to begin.

DR cillaliz, I'd go to the debate with you; it could be to be one of the funniest shows ever, watching these bigots and morons display their stupidity and lies.

DR Elmore, when they first announced that program I thought for sure we'd go.  But we were waiting to see if we'd be invited to an out-of-state wedding in our extended family (we were not, apparently) and then my cousin asked if he could stay here tonight.  Guess it was just as well I hadn't bought tickets ahead of time...

Yes, I know it's sacrilege department:  I've been listening to the three volume Bernard Herrmann at Fox set co-produced by our very own Nick Redman, and I must say as much as I love, love, love Herrmann, he is one of the most consistently unmelodic film composers out there.  So I'm wondering (maybe BK or RLP knows), was there ever a pop hit culled from a Herrmann score?  I couldn't think of one off the top of my head, but I am probably just not remembering.
Title: Re: ACTUAL FACTUAL
Post by: bk on November 19, 2011, 12:13:58 PM
A pop hit?  I think not.  Nat King Cole recorded the theme from Marnie, with very bad lyrics.  And one of the themes from Vertigo had lyrics but to it, but I don't know that it ever had a recording.   Russ Conway, pianist, recorded the love them from North By Northwest in the single hardest to find 45rpm record I've ever searched for.  It was impossible to find when it came out (and believe me I tried, from every record store in LA), and obviously more impossible after that.  I finally found it in the mid-1970s going through a stack of film-related 45s at some used record store.

All last week I suffered thru leg tremors, or cramps, or whatever you want to call them.  They would start as soon as I would go to bed and would continue most of the nght.  I got very little sleep on several nights.

My doctor's office said that it could be from dehydration.  I thought about it, and although when I am at work, I drink a lot (or alot) of water, but I never think about water when I am at home.  My friend, Leslie, thought I meant I didn't drink water at home because I didn't like the taste.  so, she  brought me a bottle of MIO.  I tried it, but I don't understand the point.  I like water.  This MIO made me think of that other type of Kool-Aid that they used to sell back in the 50's.  Was it called FlavorAid, or something like that.  It just tasted like slightly flavored water.

Sorry to hear that DR TCB. I occasionally get cramp in my leg in the middle of the night but it only comes on after I've been drinking (no - it doesn't happen every night!). Drinking causes dehydration so that may well be why I get it. It certainly is painfull.

Everybody knows there was a fight that night.  Natalie was drunk.  She was upset.  She slipped and fell off the boat.
End of story.  Let her rest in peace.  These vultures should stop feeding off of her grave.

I think I agree. 30 years on, what is the point in dragging everything up again?

Being Saturday I had the Big Breakfast of bacon, sausages, egg and tomato. Lunch was a moderate slice of ham and bread. Evening is Chicken Kiev (to put me in mind of my trip to the Ukrainian city in a few months). I snacked on some nuts and biscuits and had my usual copious mugs of tea and coffee - as soon as I finish one I start making another.

Yum, Chicken Kiev.  And what is tomorrow's main course?

It's roast beef tomorrow (but don't tell Jane).

Will there be Yorkshire Pudding?

Of course - although it will have to be Aunt Bessie's frozen Yorkshire pudding.

Mt friend Joseph just left. He arrived about 12:15, we listened to about 90 minutes of the Herbert songs and broke for lunch. Then we returned and listened to about two more hours of the 5-hour set. By that point the postman had arrived with the first edit of the new recording of EILEEN, which I recorded in Dublin in August. So we then listened to all of it.

I kept suppressing my tears; it's so damned good, and the orchestra and singers sound amazing. I really love the folk on the recording and miss them all enormously.I am very very proud of all of us.

All last week I suffered thru leg tremors, or cramps, or whatever you want to call them.  They would start as soon as I would go to bed and would continue most of the nght.  I got very little sleep on several nights.

My doctor's office said that it could be from dehydration.  I thought about it, and although when I am at work, I drink a lot (or alot) of water, but I never think about water when I am at home.  My friend, Leslie, thought I meant I didn't drink water at home because I didn't like the taste.  so, she  brought me a bottle of MIO.  I tried it, but I don't understand the point.  I like water.  This MIO made me think of that other type of Kool-Aid that they used to sell back in the 50's.  Was it called FlavorAid, or something like that.  It just tasted like slightly flavored water.

I had to look up MIO.  It was sweet of your friend even if it tasted weird.  If I didn't like my home water I would want Aquafina.

VIBES DRINKING WATER STOPS THE TREMORS/CRAMPS!!!

Thanks, Jane.  So does Nicky.

There were a lot of dogs on the hiking trail today & the majority of them were overly friendly & rambunctious.  As were were leaving the trail, a narrowish path where we prefer the dogs leashed, there was a dog that kept banging into me and zipping in & out of my legs.  Had the dog been any bigger I would not have been able to keep my balance.   First I told the owner I get knocked down easily.  When that didn't work I explained when I fall I break.  At that point the owner finally came up and grabbed his dog by the collar saying "The dog isn't very well behaved.  Something is wrong with him."  ::)

Had I been able to control my temper I would have suggested he keep the dog on a leash until he got to the wider part of the trail.

Keith & I both think the guy looked a bit on the slow side as he walked up.

The trouble with marijuana is that it causes people to make friends with people with whom they wouldn't normally be friends.  (A truism I heard in the dentist's office a couple of weeks ago).

Saturday morning greetings!  We had a fun Friday evening with Rob and Mary Linda.  First we met them at the Verizon store where Richard and I were shopping for iPhones for each other and we thought Rob would be able to ask astute technical questions and explain the answers to us.  His only input was to ask Siri "What is the meaning of life?" - for which the Apple engineers have devised a cute answer.  Jason, the salesman, was much more helpful and we are now the proud owners of all the peripherals for the iPhones that are being shipped to us.

Which iphone are you getting?  I'm thinking about getting one  when my new every two is up on dec 4

I've been doing a number of things, nothing I planned on and trying to make some candy to take home for the holidays.  The almond bark went well, the seasoned pecans....that look like pecan brittle, didn't brittle.  The sugar just crystalized around them.  They are ok, but not very good.  I'm not sure what I did wrong

I'm currently back at Bru Artisan Coffee + Tea after another very good rehearsal and another very good meal with bk at Fred 62. This time, it was just a trio of us at Fred 62: myself, bk and Damon.

And now... A Day Off!

I was looking into upgrading my iPhone 3GS to the 4S a few weeks ago. I don't qualify for the lower upgrade pricing until the end of December. However, if I just wanted to get another 3GS, it would be free for me. ??? Hmmm...

I just finished watching HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS, Part 2.

The problem with these movies is that, if you haven't read the books and you just watch the films as they are released, you tend to forget who is who and what is what.

Half the time I didn't know what was going on and/or why it was going on.

To clear up my confusion, I guess I'll just have to go back and watch all the movies again in a marathon.

Or. maybe not.

All last week I suffered thru leg tremors, or cramps, or whatever you want to call them.  They would start as soon as I would go to bed and would continue most of the nght.  I got very little sleep on several nights.

My doctor's office said that it could be from dehydration.  I thought about it, and although when I am at work, I drink a lot (or alot) of water, but I never think about water when I am at home.  My friend, Leslie, thought I meant I didn't drink water at home because I didn't like the taste.  so, she  brought me a bottle of MIO.  I tried it, but I don't understand the point.  I like water.  This MIO made me think of that other type of Kool-Aid that they used to sell back in the 50's.  Was it called FlavorAid, or something like that.  It just tasted like slightly flavored water.

DR TCB - Have you been tested for a Vitamin B or D deficiency? Or potassium? A lack of those can cause cramps. My brother, Jay, used to get severe(!) leg cramps. His doctor "prescribed" a Vitamin B supplement as well as half a banana with his evening meal. It fixed his problem right away.

Front page story in today's Cincinnati Enquirer:

Symphony is Tweet Music to Their Ears (http://news.cincinnati.com/article/20111118/ENT03/111190315/Symphony-tweet-music-their-ears?odyssey=tab|topnews|text|News)

Discuss...


Well...

I think the idea of "Tweet Seats" is a good one. At the very least - or most - it makes sure that those people who are prone to not turning off their i/smartPhones, are seated in an area where it won't bother other patrons. And, for better or worse, it fosters a relationship between the audience and the Music Makers. The New York Phil and other orchestras already do sort of the same thing when they have live broadcast of their concerts. They will come up with a #hashtag so that people listening at home can talk about the concert with other like-minded individuals. Carnegie Hall worked a very a successful campaign with their Spring 4 Music series earlier this year where they featured five regional orchestras. It allowed the hometown fans to chime in about the concert and the music. Even The Metropolitan Opera "live tweets" their broadcasts now.

Is it an ideal set up? No.

Is it a way to attract and engage new listeners and patrons? Yes.

*WQXR just ran an campaign for "OBEY THOVEN" (http://www.nytimes.com/2011/10/31/business/media/wqxr-calls-on-beethoven-to-help-lift-its-profile.html)

Um... I think there's a side-by-side comparison chart at http://www.barnesandnoble.com/u/nook/379003208

From what I can tell, the main additional feature of the Tablet is the built in HD Hulu and Netflix streaming capabilities.

I've been home, then to work for a couple of hours, then I thought that I was supposed to work concessions for a local production, but when I got there, the house manager asked me why I was there.  "To work concessions," I say.  "Didn't you get the e-mail saying that ushers and concessions weren't needed?" :o "No," says I and he told me that I could leave, so I left. 

I've been home watching TV and YouTube clips. :)
