Well, you've read the notes, the notes spoke of coming home to Los Angeles, Los Angeles, and now it is time for you to post until the Los Angeles cows come home.

Woo Hoo, first after BK once again!

We are getting some rain.

A relaxing evening here. Watched the second half of HIGH TIME, then, following a brief intermission, JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL.
EXCELLENT TRAVEL VIBES for BK's return.

~~~SAFE TRAVEL AND GOOD WEATHER VIBES FOR BK AND HIS RETURN TO L.A.!!~~~

This weekend, I recorded "Exodus" with Paul Newman for my dad. I'm recording it from my DVR to my DVD burner. Aside from it being so long, I'm really surprised at how may times the actors walk into the very obvious shadow of the camera. What's that all about? :-\
-
Did anyone really find Paul Newman believable as a Jew?
-
Oh! I was going to post Jane's 45000th post plateau, but Photobucket doesn't seem to be working. I can't log in! I keep getting the message:
Secure Connection Failed

I got that message yesterday afternoon...not a good sign.

Good morning, all! Yesterday, we began the first session with Annalene and Jim, our romantic couple. We started with their waltz, "Here's A Kiss," and then went back to "Here In My Arms" for a couple of more takes. We gave them a break and moved on to the Exit Music, then recorded therm in "Bye and Bye." We did a runthrough of the Overture, and broke for dinner. The second session, which began at 6:30, finished the Overture, we moved on to the Bows, and finished up with the Intermezzo between Act Two and the Epilogue. We finished about 9pm, struck, and joined the cast at the Whitefriar Grill for dinner. I had a wonderful cheese souffle and too much wine. We closed the restaurant and then we - our producers Joe and Jonathan, conductor David, Kim, Hal, Jim, Joe, and I - went back to the Hibernian Club bar and the party went on until 2am. Annalene was smart and left the restaurant around 10:30 since she and the beautiful baby Harry were off to London at 8:45 this morning.
So, I got to bed around 3am, and I woke around 8:15, so I could say goodbye to the. I then had breakfast with Kim, Hal, and Jim, and said goodbye to them at 10am. Now, I will pack and take a nap. After that, I have a meeting at 5pm with Joe, Jonathan and David - a postmortem - and then dinner with Joe and Jonathan and their ladies.
I think we've made a lovely recording and I cannot wait to hear the first edit.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Most Excellent Safe Travel Vibes & Xylophones to our BK! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
DR ChasSmith, thanks for posting the photos.
DR JohnG, photos will be forthcoming. I want to get back to the States and my big computer to deal with that. There will be a lot of photos coming through.
-
Morning all.
That is all.
-
DR Danise, yesterday, I got a rock for you from St Stephens Green.
-
Good morning all! Looks like I AM going to Pittsburgh for Thanksgiving. Will book my flight tonight, I just want to call the kennel first to see if they will take the dogs for the five days I will be gone. If they will I will book my flight to leave at one on tuesday so I can drop the dogs off at the kennel before going to the airport.
Thank you DR Elmore for the rock! It's my first Iriish rock. I have one from England but it is (until now) my only foreign county rock.
My doctor said that I have cysts in both kidneys but that 9mm stone only shows up on one type of X-ray not the others so he is puzzled as to the "ghost stone" and wants to monitor it before doing anything. As long as I feel well, he said not to worry about it but to see him right away if I have any pain or pass blood. Forty dollars, please. Gezzz I could have told you that!
Travel vibes for our dear BK.
Enjoy your last day abroad, DR Elmore!
Vibes to all who need or want them.
Have a wonder filled day!
-
That's wonderful advice from your doctor, Danise. Everybody should try to see a doctor if they have any pain or pass blood. That should be on a sampler.
-
And I have packed. Tomorrow morning, I pack up the meds and toiletries, but everythingelse is ready to go. I'm glad I checked the Aer Lingus printout: I thought I was flying an hour later than I actually am, so I need to be up earlier than I anticipated.
I think I saw my friend Bob Zubrycki in one of the session photos DR ChasSmith posted. I wish I could have bewen there. Lanny's work is so good.
-
When you're in Pittsburgh, please try to have lunch with Ann Miner and become her close friend for a few years, so that she can a few years later turn on you and treat you like a cold piece of garbage. :)
I was talking with a friend JIm last night about how every odd this is actually, that this happening in FRIENDSHIPS happens like - never. Maybe once in a great while when a marriage fails. Maybe when a business relationship fails. But a friendship, of any sort - just about never, that two people are just friends, the friendship ends, and for whatever reason, instead of the friends just co-existing in the world where they run into each other all the time, one of them (all IMHO of course, though I think it's all documented in emails) actively, continually, viciously, maliciously, evilly, mistreats the other person WORSE than they would other people than they never knew as good friends.
One wonders at the psychology of it - perhaps it was for those months that it bothered her that this person who she decided wasn;t her friend any more was still at her chat board and wasn;t leaving - but it was a theater chat board that had hundreds of epople who weren't her "friends" - ever, and I'd been on the chat board before I'd been her friend - but it actually made me now wonder if the horrible, miserable, pathological, mistreatment (because it was sou outside human behavior for friends) was actually an attempt over that time to make it so unpleasant that I'd leave, but the fun was still outweighing the unpleasant ness with her, so i stayed until somehow she found a bizarre excuse to "ban" me, etc, etc, etc. Then the stuff with govt filings started and THEN -only then - tangible unpleasantness towards her started form my side.
Thanks for letting me get this out.
Don't know if anyone read that, but it felt good to write it out publicly
-
Good morning to all
-
Safe travels to BK
-
ASK BK
Did you ever go see the Hollywood Palace while it was on the air?
-
Good morning. It is at least Wednesday. And we got rain!
-
Mega vibes to all!
-
I think I saw my friend Bob Zubrycki in one of the session photos DR ChasSmith posted. I wish I could have bewen there. Lanny's work is so good.
Which one is he? There might be other shots of him on the cutting room floor. (This phone camera was barely up to dealing with the lighting levels, etc.)
-
That sounds like the most amazing week, DR Elmore.
-
I am off to the dentist in a couple of hours, for a replacement crown. When I was in for my checkup last month they saw that something had happened to one of the two crowns she'd put in a year ago -- nothing I can detect, but there's a break in it, or "something" that should not have happened. She's replacing it free of charge.
These are the "same day" crowns. She prepares the tooth, then I go away for a few hours while the machine makes it. How in the hell they safely remove the old one is a mystery, since the bonding is supposed to be so good. I'll be finding out soon enough.
-
I'm up. I got a little more sleep, although I woke up about six times during the night.

The principal violinist. He's wonderful!
DR ChasSmith, it was the most fantastic 10 days! I think our EILEEN recording is pretty good, but I think DEAREST ENEMY will be even better. Those HHW vibes kept things going well: we managed to record Stephen Rea, just as I was sure his illness would keep him away, we had a fantastic, enthusiastic cast of whom I cannot say enough, we turned 20 classical chorus singers into a rather rowdy Broadway chorus, and we have a fine 33-piece orchestra led by a wonderful musical director. I can't wait to hear the first edit!
I've been out to buy my brother Randy and Jo some silly irish souvenirs, and I thnk I will continue reading HOW GREEN WAS MY VALLEY. If I nap, I nap.
-
Good morning, all.
Vibes for Danise and kidneys.
Glad to see a glimpse of a sense of humor there, FJL, about the ATC fiasco.
-
I forgot my cell phone today. After having lived 48 years without one, let's see if I can last a day now without one.
-
I'm not a person who lives by the cell phone, but on the rare occasion I don't have it with me, I feel totally vulnerable to all manner of horrible things.
-
DR Elmore: I think this is him, talking to BK?
(http://home.comcast.net/~chasmith7/Avatar05.jpg)
-
Yep, that's Bob - great to see him - haven't in a decade.
-
Just back from Fed Ex so everything is done and now I'll just finish the packing. Keep sending those excellent vibes and xylophones for a safe, secure, and on time flight and for the weather to remain good until I'm home. So far they're working splendidly.
-
Wednesday morning greetings! There is nothing on my calendar for today, so I'm easing into it with lots of coffee, both newspapers, and some computer time. I do have to return a couple of things to the local public library and, maybe, do a little shopping.
-
Travel vibes for BK - wave when you fly over Ohio!
-
AH hah!
Wednesday!!!
Last night at rehearsal, I was the only one who did NOT use his book onstage! And I had about 80% of my lines.....
Tonight we do Act Two - where all of my real physical comedy starts......I think I have 100% of my lines!!! We shall see.
Before rehearsal, I am also going over my part for the USO Radio Show.....we are doing a skit called Ware/Where which is very reminiscent of Who's On First.....with a man who is having car trouble in Ware on the telephone with the dispatcher trying to get help. Of course, he is also on Watt Street.....all in Merry Olde Englande.
-
I am also doing the Mel Blanc part in a Jack Benny Radio Show about Jack buying Christmas presents for his staff....I am trying to sell him shoelaces.....
-
TRAVEL VIBES for MR BK.
The recording sounds most excellent.
Good Judgment vibes for DR CILLA LIZ and her client.
-
And the word of the day is: EUNOIA!
And The Song Of The Day Is:
(It's A Tie)
SOMETHING GOOD and
FOR GOOD
-
Last night DR Cillaliz asked me about my heart attack warning signs. Well, in the spring and early summer of 2010 I was treated for bursitis in my left shoulder. On the day of my attack, I had what I thought was indigestion and a knot in the hollow at the base of my throat. Funny, after the blocked artery was stented and the dissection healed, my "bursitis" went away...
-
I too - along with many people in the cast - am having trouble sleeping.
My only guess is that the Sun is in opposition to Neptune which is also trining Mars.....it's a wonder ANYONE can sleep. Add to that, Mars entering Scorpio and the Sun entering Virgo.....don't waste time TRYING to sleep....get something done.
-
Travel vibes for all.
-
Can't recommend this video highly enough:
Elizabeth Banks' "Just a Little Heart Attack" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7wmPWTnDbE)

Car should be here shortly. Packed and waiting for its arrival.

Good Morning!
I'm up, I'm up... And I'm watching dancers.

Good Wednesday, all and one.

I forgot my cell phone today. After having lived 48 years without one, let's see if I can last a day now without one.
It never fails, this would be the time everyone calls and or texts me. When I have my cell phone with me...zilch! LOL!

BK-Travel Vibes and Marimbas For A Safe Journey

Just to brush up - I watched The Jack Benny Show last night - Bobby Rydell was the special guest.....it was not the best episode, and Mel did not make an appearance.
One of my favorite Blanc/Benny routines.

So...
I apparently fell asleep sometime after posting last night. I think I woke up some time around 3:00am, turned off the TV, turned off my computer and turned out the lights and went promptly back to sleep.
When my alarm went off at 6:45, I thought it was a mistake. Then just as I was about to hit the snooze button, I remembered that I had made plans to meet a friend for an early breakfast down at City Bakery. So... Shower, dress, subway, City Bakery.
-
And now I'm in the midst of the final audition session.
-
Good day!!!
Safe travel vibes to bk!
Health vibes to Danise
Travel vibes and relaxation vibes to Elmore...
Vibes to all who need them
-
Just had a power cut which is extremely unusual. It only lasted for about 30 seconds and it set off all the burglar alarms in the area.
-
Safe travel vibes to bk.

Wow! Nobody in the joint, not even a Guest or two.
-
Now there are 4 Haineses and 54 Guests. How quickly things can change.
-
Just back from dentist, where the crown prep is absolutely NUTS. I guess I'd forgotten what an ordeal it was last year. And of course this would have to be the back tooth, for maximum inconvenience in the chair. I love the same-day-ness, though -- no temporary to deal with for two weeks. They put a gel on the bare naked tooth to protect it, I refrain from eating or drinking, and two hours from now I go back for the crown.
-
When you said you were getting a new crown DR CHAS SMITH, I imagined you were preparing for your coronation.

Congrats to Jane on her milestone. Forgot to past that last night.
It appears Doug R has reached one, too.

The easiest way to get a new crown is to spread some Imperial Margerine on your bread.

There is an elderly woman in back of me who has not been off her cell phone since I sat down. She calls everyone she knows to tell them she'll be boarding soon. What did everyone do before cell phones? They got by perfectly fine.

I wonder if she's related to the woman who rides on my train every day who is always yakking on her cell phone and yelling, "I'm on the train...I'm on the train...I said I'm on the train!"
And this is on the Quiet Car, mind you...

Congratulations to DR Jane and Doug for milestones!

How are you doing today, FJL?
-
This is actually kind of hilarious, because people seem to think they're the only smart people. it's like that scene in GUIDE FOR THE MARRIED MAN where the guy is found in bed with his girlfriend and he just denies it with the lady right there in bed with him and his wife sees it right there and he just denies, denies, denies,
Matthew Murray is a fine journalist whose essays I love and have never missed a chance to praise. He reviews for Talkin Broadway, and Ann Miner, and engaged in a public twitter back-and-forth yesterday in favor of Ann Miner
I tweeted and wrote to him as well, trying to correct some misconceptiions. He emailed back this morning: [emphasis added]
Fred, I have done everything possible to stay out of this, and I do
not appreciate your dragging me into it in this manner, to say nothing
of CCing Mike and Ann on your correspondence with me.
I believe it would be best if you did not contact me again, through
any medium (including, but not limited to, e-mail, Facebook, and
Twitter), for the time being. Perhaps you and I (sans CC recipients)
may reevaluate our relationship at some point in the future, but I am
not comfortable talking with you about this matter, or anything else,
at the present time.
Tweeting out in public where the whole web can see - in response to someone posting on a private listserv - is doing his best to stay out of it. No one else is smart, i guess. :)
-

Good Afternoon!
Today's final set of auditions and callbacks were, well... Wonderful. Some people truly stepped up their game, others surprised again with their imagination and talent. Alas, all of the goodness made the final winnowing down a bit difficult. It was one of those situations where if we could have cast everyone, we would have. It's always hard letting some people go. However, we have great people in the "back-up" slots in case any of our first choices end up turning down the offer. A true abundance of riches.
-
Congrats to Jane on her milestone. Forgot to past that last night.

A very mini-milestone :)

An error occurred during a connection to login.photobucket.com.
Cannot communicate securely with peer: no common encryption algorithm(s).
(Error code: ssl_error_no_cypher_overlap)
I got that message yesterday afternoon...not a good sign.
It's finally fixed! Here's Jane's 45000th!!

Saw this on my twitter feed... Denzel Washington died in a skiing accident sTill checking on the details
http://denzel.washington.mediafetcher.com/news/top_stories/actor_skiing.php
According to this it's a hoax
Denzel Not Dead (http://techie-buzz.com/scams/denzel-washington-dies-snowboard-accident-hoax.html)
While I'm not pleased at all about the hoax, I'm very pleased he is alive and well.

Is there snow somewhere for skiing?
LOL. That also caught my attention, especially since a location wasn't mentioned.

Anyhoo -
Back permanently for a while from my travels abroad and otherwise. Happy to be back at home with the DP, who of course is working, and the DD's. Back to Legally Blonde which opens in close to 2 weeks.
Trip to Orlando was lots of fun. Went to a Disney Water Park - Typhoon Lagoon - which was a lot of fun.
Kinda tired today as yesterday was long.
I'm glad you had a good time.

Can't recommend this video highly enough:
Elizabeth Banks' "Just a Little Heart Attack" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7wmPWTnDbE)
It took awhile to load but worth watching. :)

I am back from dinner with David Brophy, Jonathan Ford and his beautiful lady friend Órfhlaith. We went to a wonderful Italian place. I had cod with green beans and a fantastic peach mascarpone. The meal was delicious and the company sublime.
I am all packed and set to go in seven hours, and this will be my last post until I get home. Please keep those travel vibes coming!
-
Travel vibes for DR elmore!

Congrats to DRs Jane and Doug R on their milestones!

Vibes for a safe and happy trip home, DR Elmore!

You know, it is just still to darned expensive for me to fly to Mumbai. That is all.

I recently listened to the Encore's CD of Merrily We Roll Along and was not impressed. Mostly by the performances. I longed to go back and listen to the original. Anyone else have an opinion of this?

Evening all! We have had buckets of rain the past few days. And now we have TS Isaac that may or may not hit Florida. If he gets me out of going to work, I welcome him.
Glad the vibes help with our very own BK's travel and hopefully DR Elmores as well.

When you're in Pittsburgh, please try to have lunch with Ann Miner and become her close friend for a few years, so that she can a few years later turn on you and treat you like a cold piece of garbage. :)
I was talking with a friend JIm last night about how every odd this is actually, that this happening in FRIENDSHIPS happens like - never. Maybe once in a great while when a marriage fails. Maybe when a business relationship fails. But a friendship, of any sort - just about never, that two people are just friends, the friendship ends, and for whatever reason, instead of the friends just co-existing in the world where they run into each other all the time, one of them (all IMHO of course, though I think it's all documented in emails) actively, continually, viciously, maliciously, evilly, mistreats the other person WORSE than they would other people than they never knew as good friends.
One wonders at the psychology of it - perhaps it was for those months that it bothered her that this person who she decided wasn;t her friend any more was still at her chat board and wasn;t leaving - but it was a theater chat board that had hundreds of epople who weren't her "friends" - ever, and I'd been on the chat board before I'd been her friend - but it actually made me now wonder if the horrible, miserable, pathological, mistreatment (because it was sou outside human behavior for friends) was actually an attempt over that time to make it so unpleasant that I'd leave, but the fun was still outweighing the unpleasant ness with her, so i stayed until somehow she found a bizarre excuse to "ban" me, etc, etc, etc. Then the stuff with govt filings started and THEN -only then - tangible unpleasantness towards her started form my side.
Thanks for letting me get this out.
Don't know if anyone read that, but it felt good to write it out publicly
WOW! I'm sorry you have to deal with all that nastiness.
I am also sorry you have to deal with this. Nothing hurts like friends who turn on you.

If I ever win the #@!$% lotto, I will buy you a ticket. Don't hold your breath waiting. I'm at 24 years and waiting for the same set of numbers. If I wasn't so scared my numbers would come up the moment I stopped playing them, I would.

Booked my flight for Pittsburgh and the dogs kennel. Just trying to decide if I want to drive myself to/from the airport since I will be leaving in the day and coming home in the day unlike most times.

Yes, Congrats!!!!! I am so far behind you all.

Thank you. All I've heard is praise for the new orchestrations, but that doesn't sound like enough to get me to buy it. Yet.

Tonight's Restaurant Week dinner: lobster ravioli in a cream sauce, beef carpaccio, cioppino (sadly with undercooked potatoes), and something called pastel impossible for dessert that was really special.

Travel vibes for DR Elmore!

I'm home - even though we got in a little early it seemed like the longest flight ever - about five and a half hours - I'm okay for the just over four hours trip going East, but I was really getting antsy. I've already been to the mail place and also had a Subway spicy Eyetalian sandwich just now. I'm listening to an upcoming Kritzerland project - not sure if it's going to be too problematic or not and it's very short at thirty-one minutes, but that's every note of the score. We shall see.

We received HUNGER GAMES from Netflix today and got about an hour into it. The disc then got all glitchy and would not play any more. We've both read the book and know how the story ends, but will have to wait until the replacement arrives to finish the movie.

Welcome home, BK!

Just enjoyed a post-dental Manhattan.
-
A laurel, and hearty welcome back to L.A. for BK, and VIBES to DR Elmore for an excellent pond-crossing.

How do you like the movie so far? I recently saw previews for it and it looked good.

Seemed to be very true to the book and Stanley Tucci is a hoot.

Thanks. I need to rent it.

I forgot my cell phone today. After having lived 48 years without one, let's see if I can last a day now without one.
I think everyone should leave their cell phone at home or off now and then. I find it a relief to not have it. The people who would really NEED to get a hold of me know how.

TRAVEL VIBES for MR BK.
The recording sounds most excellent.
Good Judgment vibes for DR CILLA LIZ and her client.
thanks JRand. It was an asylum case and she is very deserving in my opinion

Last night DR Cillaliz asked me about my heart attack warning signs. Well, in the spring and early summer of 2010 I was treated for bursitis in my left shoulder. On the day of my attack, I had what I thought was indigestion and a knot in the hollow at the base of my throat. Funny, after the blocked artery was stented and the dissection healed, my "bursitis" went away...
Thanks Ginny. It's disconcerting to me that women's heart attack symptoms are so much more vague than men's symptoms are.
-
I too - along with many people in the cast - am having trouble sleeping.
My only guess is that the Sun is in opposition to Neptune which is also trining Mars.....it's a wonder ANYONE can sleep. Add to that, Mars entering Scorpio and the Sun entering Virgo.....don't waste time TRYING to sleep....get something done.
I slept well last night, lol. Wonder what THAT means

Be sure to read the link that DR Jane posted earlier today. Also, I've been reading some pretty gruesome stories about how women are far less likely to be referred to cardiac rehab after an event than men and that insurance often doesn't cover it. It was a great confidence-builder for me and helped me develop some exercise habits that I can continue on my own now.

I'm starting my home exercise program in large part because I'm concerned about my heart health after my brother had his quadruple bypass last month at age 55. I need to lose weight and just get in better shape.

Well, I'm heading home. I MUST do laundry tonight. I have no choice. ::)

Anyway, until later!

About to watch Singing' in the Rain on the big screen for the first time. It's a fathom event. A digital projection.
Enjoy! The Vixter and I tried to go see it when it was shown earlier this summer but it was sold out and now we are in Canada where it is being shown on August 26th - at the same time we will be on the plane back to the U S of A
Oh well maybe onthe 70th anniversary we will get to see it on the big screen

Just in time for the convention.

Watching all the extras on "Short Cuts," which are hours and hours and hours long. Great stuff, but the profile of Raymond Carver is heavy going. He had such a brief life, but his writing is so wonderful to me. I'm going to have to read more of his stories after graduation.
-
So somehow it's okay for a site to post and distribute fake death things for celebrities? And this is somehow fine to do under the guise of "satire?" Do these idiots even know what satire is? That site should be taken down and anyone who posts fake death stuff like that should be taken to task for it.
-
I am very tired.

Just watching an episode of Centennial...
HEY there is a scene where Gregory Harrison has no shirt on..
Had a crush on him when I was younger....
-
Nice to have DVDs and old tapes to watch.. I would rather watch something fun and entertaining instead of seeing negative campaign ads inserted in commercial breaks...
Would love to see Winds of War, NOrth and South; and War and Remembrance.
For all viewing I have Upstairs/Downstairs and teh two Roots miniseries.
Also old episodes of Days and OLTL..

It really is disconcerting. A friend of mine had a heart attack that started out as indigestion.

I have a wicker chair right next to my exercies bike. Whenever I ride Ricky jumps onto the chair and it looks like he's riding sidecar. It cracks me up

Cats are interesting characters.. :-)

Just noticed this about Centennial...
Horses were reused many times. I have noted that one piebald paint has been ridden by Clay BAsket, Lucinda, two cowboys, four indians and Levi Zendt in the series... PIebald and Bay Pintos are unusual.
THis particular Paint horse appears in 7 episodes of Centennial... and darn he did not get a credit

Just received and email tonight letting me know that my dear friend and interviewee Jeffrey Stone (aka John Fontaine) passed away today. He'd had a stroke in December and had been mostly bedridden since then.
Jeff was one heck of a guy, who had a lots of adventures in his life. He was also one of the few actors to admit to me that he'd had a same sex experience (with popular B movie actor). Of course, Jeff had a very active sex life...very, very active! LOL!
He was married to actresses Barbara Lawrence and then Corinne Calvet. His films include THE THING THAT COULDN'T DIE, ARMY BOUND, THE BIG BEAT, and MONEY WOMEN AND GUNS.

Tonight I finished up a movie which recored onto the DVR from TCM. The film was titled SEPIA CINDERELLA (1947) and starred singer Billy Daniels and singer Sheila Guyse. They were both much better singers then they were actors, but I still enjoyed the movie...and Billy Daniels I will certainly be getting some CDs of...what a crooner! In fact there was a LOT of great music in this musical drama comedy.

Danise, listened to an interview with Matt Ashford tonight... I got the impression he has made his peace with Days and moving on...
Can't blame him for Days has never written for him in the last 10 years. I wish Matt the best on his future endeavours
