Got up and opened the blinds facing the little hill at the rear of the house, thinking, Oy!, I know there's no snow in the forecast but what a dark overcast day it looks like so far.  Then I walked across the room and opened the ones facing where the sun comes up and was greeted by the most intense red start of sunrise, the likes of which I rarely get to see and appreciate around here.  Those moments are always so fleeting, but it just happened my camera was lying close by, and I grabbed it, and ladies and gentlemen, I SEIZED that moment and got what I hope will be a down and dirty snapshot that does some justice to that sky.  Well, we'll see.

Good morning, all! I slept late and, once I get moving, I need to do some banking first thing. I've also got a trip to the post office. After that, the day gets easier: wrapping a few late Christmas gifts, working on my taxes.

Tonight, I'm having dinner in midtown with my friend Bruce Pomahac, whose gift still hasn't arrived from Amazon.co.uk.

Things are exciting on the castrecordinglist: two of my least favorite posters, both arrogant fools, are engaged in ugly duel. I suppose the bigger fool deserves it because he continually pulls an "I'm leaving this group" whenever his nose is out of joint, yet he always comes back to post more stupidity; he's living proof that a lot of working critics are complete fools, legends in their own minds, but completely clueless. For a working music critic, he's the stupidest man I've ever encountered. I can't wait for round two.

And so to work.

DVD - "The Best of Sammy Davis Jr Live" from a concert in Germany. I saw Sammy Davis Jr around about 1963 at the London Palladium. He gave an amazing performance which I've never forgotten.

Also been watching a HD TV broadcast of "Rosemary's Baby" which has superb picture quality.

When DR Druxy first told us about Chester, someone said what a perfect name for a dog.  And it really is.  It would fit on a good many dogs, but being a fairly distinguished name, you would certainly have to find it on a classic English bloodhound, perhaps on a dog living on the Rutland estate in MARNIE.

Nice Filichia on Friday about "The Fig Leaves Are Falling," a show that has always intrigued me because of Allen Sherman's involvement. There had been talk in days gone by and the record label that shall remain nameless of a recording being released. I guess that's a dead issue.

I wish I knew, Jack! We'd be stars!

I do think Ashford is really overrated. I got tired of prancing chorus boys interrrupting "Grand Old Ivy." It's like he can't stage a duet without believing adding a lot of bouncing boys will only im[prove the number. He's not very good but he works. Same with Scott Ellis.

Hello, everyone.

Glad BK liked THE HEDGEHOG. I couldn't imagine him not liking it. It's a perfect little gem, in my view.

BTW, Garance Le Guillermic, the actress who plays the 11-year-old, is also in TO ROME WITH LOVE, the new Woody Allen film.

Yes, DD Chester is a handsome fellow. I mentioned the other day that I liked the name. It's a name with character. Plus, it's known to most people, easy to say and spell, and yet not common.

DR Druxy it really isn't that difficult to change a pet's name.  When I think of all the nicknames our dogs & cats had I also remember they answered to every single one of their names. :)

DVD - "The Best of Sammy Davis Jr Live" from a concert in Germany. I saw Sammy Davis Jr around about 1963 at the London Palladium. He gave an amazing performance which I've never forgotten.

I'm a big fan. I liked his work when I growing up, but he's one performer who I appreciate even more now. I've never seen him in person. You are quite lucky, Doug!

When DR Druxy first told us about Chester, someone said what a perfect name for a dog.  And it really is.  It would fit on a good many dogs, but being a fairly distinguished name, you would certainly have to find it on a classic English bloodhound, perhaps on a dog living on the Rutland estate in MARNIE.
It's also the name of a good hamburger joint here in San Antonio.

Well, I must be off.  I'm ushering tonight for Broadway’s Next Hit Musical (http://www.washingtoncenter.org/upcoming-events/2013/1/4/broadways-next-hit-musical.html)! ;D

Quote
Every song is fresh. Every scene is new. Every night is different. It’s all improvised and it’s all funny.
 
The hysterical Broadway’s Next H!T Musical is the only unscripted theatrical awards show. Master improvisers gather made up, hit song suggestions from the audience and create a spontaneous evening of music, humor, and laughter. The audience votes for their favorite song and watches as the cast turns it into a full blown improvised musical - complete with memorable characters, witty dialogue, and plot twists galore. BNHM has been seen recently at The Triad, Tribeca Film Festival, and at the New York Musical Theater Festival, among many others.

Sounds like it's going to be great (at least, I hope it will be).  They're doing two performances, one tonight and one tomorrow night, and I'm ushering for both.  AND since I'm ushering and not working concessions, I'll actually get to see all of both performances. :D

Be back later!

sory I was E & T yesterday   I had a  truly frustrating day with people who were being intentionally obstructive -  I had a massive headache and since I was on a special diet for my PET scan today could not take a tylenol or aleve andcould not bear to look at teh computer screen any longer

Of all days to have a headache.  Were you going through caffeine withdrawal?

probably caffeine withdrawal  - I generally have 3 cups a day at the office and then tea at home at night

I went through caffeine withdrawal a number of times until I finally kicked my Pepsi addiction.  Have you tried caffeine free tea at night?

I slept until 9! today after going to sleep around 10 -  I usually only get 6 or less hours of sleep a day so this was massive!

I envy that. Since going on decongestants for the cedar pollen, I haven't slept well. The pills are non-drowsy, but that seems to last through the night, too.


Why are you using non-drowsy medication?  Judy Garland would be very disappointed in you.

Watched half a motion picture, then wrote more pages - I seem to be keeping pace with twelve a day - very unusual for fiction.  I wrote more than that on the two non-fiction books, because non-fiction just goes faster for me since I'm not making things up as I am with fiction.  Since I don't really outline, other than copious notes about things I want to include, I do have to stop and figure things out as I go - that's the fun of it for me, frankly.  Back in the Kritzer books days I was so happy to do three pages in one day, but by the time of the third Kritzer book I was doing five to seven steadily.
