Post by: elmore3003 on January 23, 2012, 04:22:31 AM: Good morning, all! Last night was a lot of bizarre dreams: working at the Miami University Library; schlepping about Miffletown, OH; sitting at a library table reading and trying to decipher what a former friend was reading at the table next to mine and, after deciphering that it was Murger's Scenes de la vie de boheme, why he was reading it; before the alarm went off, I dreamed that I was rifing on a crowded bus and moved over to make room for a young lady to sit.

I cannot find on this Mac keyboard the symbol I need to make a grave accent for my e's! HELP!

BK, what a speedy little cuss you are! I can't wait to read it. And DR cillaliz is becoming the James Galway of Sioux City.

Today, I have to attend the orchestra reading of the new orchestrations for MERRILY WE ROLL ALONG, and it will be fun to spend time with Rob, Joshie, Bruce Pomahac and Jonathan Tunick. Before I leave, I have work to do on both the Herbert songs release and DEAREST ENEMY.

More coffee, and to work.

Today,

Post by: John G. on January 23, 2012, 04:45:06 AM: Cedar allergies still have me feeling ragged. Hope they clear a little later today.

Yesterday, I got out of town to do a story and the air was much clearer there than in the city. The temperature was about 80 and the sun finally came out (it had been foggy until mid-afternoon). It was the most un-January-like day I can remember.

Post by: John G. on January 23, 2012, 04:48:08 AM: BK, you had asked for our favorites of your albums recently and I discovered one yesterday that didn't make my list. I was looking for another CD and game across the recording of "Bed and Sofa." It may not be my favorite musical of all time, but I love the fact that I have a recording of it.

Title: Re: LOOK I MADE A BOOK WHERE THERE NEVER WAS A BOOK
Post by: Jennifer on January 23, 2012, 07:38:16 AM: DR Jane, I finished CATCH ME by Lisa Gardner last night. Really liked it.

Only one question. Which of her other books have you read? I think you're up to date on the D.D Warren series? But have you read any of the FBI Profiler series? The reason I ask is that a few characters from her other books appear briefly in this book. Quincy and his daughter (from the FBI Profiler series) talk to D.D over the phone. But they mention stuff about their lives/relationships that could be considered minor spoilers for that series if you haven't read it.

Post by: JMK on January 23, 2012, 07:43:22 AM: I received the absolute oddest email last night from a very well known silent film historian with whom I had been in contact some time ago about a release he supervised. Last night he forwarded me the weirdest email, very long and incredibly detailed, from a professor on Vanuatu (no, I'm not kidding) about some silent films I had never heard of which were found in Vanuatu (no, I'm not kidding), with his added comment: FYI. Okey-dokey, then, so glad I'm up to speed. :)

Post by: Jennifer on January 23, 2012, 07:44:30 AM: DR Jane mentioned she was looking for something to read. This mystery thriller which is usually $13.99 is free on both amazon and nook for a very limited time. It's supposed to be sort of like John Grisham.

Post by: JMK on January 23, 2012, 09:14:20 AM: BK, is there any way you could license some of the old Paramount LPs? I've been listening to the original TV soundtrack of MANNIX, which has never been released on CD (Lalo did a rerecording which has been released with various covers, including one that *looks* like the original TV release, but isn't). It's a fantastic album, different than the re-record (Lalo's piano solo on the theme from the original recording is spectacular).

I am going to look into taking private lessons now. There is a teacher at the local community college who has a doctorate in flute and gives private lessons through the college. You don't have to enroll in school to take lessons. It may be a way to get into some groups. I'm really glad I'm doing all this. I've been playing again since September and it just keeps getting better.

GOOD FOR YOU!!!

I met a woman today who reminds me a little of you. She runs a non-profit food truck that fees the homeless and anyone else in need of something nutritious to eat. She gathers leftover fresh produce from the farmers market and breads from several bakeries to include in her meals.

As she gets to know the regulars, she has begun to make 10 vegetarian meals and 1 vegan meal, plus numerous diabetic plates.

She is a former lawyer who left the practice years ago after losing a client on death row. She recently enrolled in culinary school and has decided her new mission is to combat hunger "one plate at a time." She drove up to Joplin last summer and fed many of the workers there right after the tornadoes.

This is a person DS Craig would like to meet. He would want to make completely vegan meals.

It is also referred to as an evangelical Christian fiction novel. Since it is free & the reviews are excellent I have ordered it. Thanks for the tip.

If you've read the rest of the D.D. Warren series then that should be enough. I think you would really enjoy the FBI Profiler series (i really liked it).
Just be warned that other characters from her other books appear in Catch Me. Specifically in reference to the FBI Profiler series D.D has a conversation with Quincy and his daughter. They do mention a couple of small things about relationships and kids. So if you really don't like knowing these types of details and you plan on reading the FBI Profiler series ...

Post by: elmore3003 on January 23, 2012, 02:05:36 PM: And I am home from the reading. Jonathan's orchestrations are quite wonderful, and I find my reaction to hearing the score again for the first time in thirty years is about the same as it was then: a couple of wonderful songs ("Not A Day Goes By" "and "Good Thing Going"), half of a good number ("Old Friend") and a lot of hostile dissonant drivel. Then along came "Our Time" and, just as it happened in the fourth preview and final performance of the original production, I found myself in tears, for friends I've not seen in years, for Steve sonfdhheim who got my arrangement of the song published, and for growing old.

Rob Berman, as seems to be usual, was prepared and fantstic; it was great to visit with my dear friend Leigh Beery, Mrs Jonathan Tunick, my adopted son Joshie did a fantastic job copying the socres, and it was nicve to see other friends as well. Still, I wish I liked the show more than I do, but it gets to me.

DR JRand61, it's great your package arrived so quickly. Enjoy.

DR elmore - I bought an external hard-drive exclusively for my iTunes Music Library. If you don't want to drag a good chunk of your Music files to the Trash Can, an external hard-drive would be an easy and not too expensive solution.

Jose is right...external hard drives are getting to be VERY inexpensive. I've seen 2TB drives on sale for about $100!

DR Jennifer if I begin with THE PERFECT HUSBAND will that help before I read CATCH ME? How many of the series do I need to read before CATCH ME?

The books in the FBI profiler series are:
The Perfect Husband
The Third Victim
The Next Accident
The Killing Hour
Gone
Say Goodbye

There are characters from The Perfect Husband in Catch ME. Actually if you don't care that much about the relationships/kids of Quincy and his daughter then The Perfect Husband would be the perfect book to read before Catch Me. Because I read The Perfect Husband so long ago i could just barely remember the characters that were in Catch Me. But if you read it now it will be fresh in your mind.

Well, one easy way to free up some space on your hard-drive would be to set up a folder on one of your external drives for some of your image files (jpgs, gifs, etc.). It's a very easy "drag and drop" operation. Moving your iTunes library is a bit more complicated. -Although, there are also some pretty good iTunes plug-ins that make managing your iTunes library a whole lot easier.

I need to move my iTunes library, too. I have it all on my C drive, but I'd like to free up that space. I have two external hard drives that are 1TB and 1.5TB in size.

Met friends for lunch and we went to a local Lithuanian restaurant which I'd not been to before. Had a spicy soup followed by some sort of beef dish, with roast potatoes and salad, followed by a cherry tart. All very filling. I now feel totally bloated so will go and lie down like a beached whale.

I've never had Lithuanian food. I'm not sure it sounds very good. I want to visit one day & see Vilna, the town my grandparents are from.

I've never had Lithuanian food either. Of course, I am a Methodist

Finessed, printed, Xeroxed (and am having the Xerox place to the complete book spiral bound for me to do the initial proofing before I get it to my two official proofers), and pages delivered. Muse Margaret doesn't think she'll be able to read all of it in one day, so I probably won't hear from her until tomorrow. In the meantime, here is a preview of the new book:

HOPE TO SEE YOU SOONER RATHER THAN LATER!!!

THANKS, JANE!!

I HAVE CABLE TV AND INTERNET ACCESS AT HOME!! ;D ;D

Granted, it was nothing like Michael S. went through, so in perspective, I feel quite lucky. But I'm VERY happy to be back on-line at home.

YES!!! :D

Rosie said that she wanted to do something different, so Kathy came in and they just talked without an audience. She said that they were supposed to just talk for about 45 minutes, but they kept going and talked for 2 and 1/2 hours! Rosie said that they'll show the interview on Tuesday AND Wednesday!

I love Rosie and I love Kathy!! ;D

Got to judge the Almost Famous Chef contest today. Three chefs from culinary schools in Louisiana and one chef from Dallas came to town and prepared some wonderful food. For me, it was between two dishes, but the woman chef was late, so she lost points. But the winner did a beautiful piece of pan-seared red snapper with fresh pickles and an Abita Amber rice. Just beautiful.

Sounds good. What is Abita Amber rice? I looked it up & still don't know. Does it have beer in it?
Yes. Abita is a New Orleans beer company.
