And the word of the day is: HOISE!
I had the opportunity to work with Henny Youngman once in the the late 70's on a Canadian TV series. The premise of the sketch was that he could make anyone a comedian. He would give the setup line and I would give the punchline. So this is what I did.
Henny: I gave my wife plastic surgery for her birthday.
Me: I cut up her credit cards.

The Ginger Rogers Show (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WCqj4Y9YhTw)
a pilot from 1963 for a possible weekly television outing for Miss Rogers. The pilot was never picked up. After we watched the show we realized why it wasn't picked up.

Ohh...you look really pretty at avatar size...and we can see all of you!
The Ginger Rogers Show was the pilot Ginger was shooting at 20th Century-Fox while Cynthia Pepper was shooting the "Margie" pilot.... They were in the makeup room together early one morning, when Cynthia said to her, "I think you used to know my father....."
Of course....he was Jack Pepper, Ginger's first husband. Ginger's response was reported in the TV Guide article that reported the incident.

After the show was over, my mother's first husband came over and congratulated me.

Back from a three-mile jog. I've been having some fun doing slight revisions for The Brain from Planet X for high school productions, so they're not left to their own devices for changes.
I was wondering if anybody would like to buy a lovely house on long Island -
Only an hour from Broadway, 20 minutes to north shore or south shore beaches,
90 minutes to the Hamptons,
Complete with an indoor basement wading pool
All offers considered

New things on the board: Ability to post calendar events is now working - the updated software has some weird thing where it has to be tied to a board, which it now is - if you scroll down the home page of the board you will see a calendar board - when things get added to the calendar they'll show up there - kind of pointless but that's how it works now.
The board has been pruned - you'll notice there are now a bit more than ten new archived sections for the older topics. That, for me, is very helpful, as the board has not been pruned in over four years and there were close to a half million posts that resulted in 92 pages of topics, which is just too unwieldy - those have all been broken down into several archived topics now.
Captcha has been set to the next level of security and since that happened not one spam registration has come through.

Workers are winding down - they may or may not finish today, but definitely tomorrow - the last of the painting is happening now - all of the lattice work on the patio - boy does that help. Originally they weren't going to do it, so I offered to pay half (it wasn't much) and that did the trick. they've been very good to me here, and have never raised the rent in eight years.
I like how the new board lets you fix a post. If you do it quickly enough, it doesn't even show that you had to go back in and edit.

THIS WAS JUST SENT TO ME:
NEW YORK-Saying he could no longer stand idly by while a vital part of American culture is lost forever, activist and Broadway producer Mel Brooks has founded a private nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving the word "schmuck."
An emotional Brooks stopped short of kvetching at a schmuck fundraiser Monday.
"Schmuck is dying," a sober Brooks said during a 2,000-person rally held in his hometown of Williamsburg, Brooklyn Monday. "For many of us, saying 'schmuck' is a way of life. Yet when I walk down the street and see people behaving in foolish, pathetic, or otherwise schmucky ways, I hear only the words 'prick' and 'douche bag.' I just shake my head and think, 'I don't want to live in a world like this.'"
The nonprofit, Schmucks For Schmuck, has compiled schmuck-related data from the past 80 years and conducted its own independent research on contemporary "schmuck" usage. According to Brooks, the statistics are frightening: Utterances of the word "schmuck" have declined every year since its peak in 1951, and in 2006, the word was spoken a mere 28 times-17 of these times by Brooks himself. The study indicates that today, when faced with a situation in which one can use a targeted or self-deprecating insult to convey a general feeling of disgust, people are 50 times more likely to use the word "jerk" than "schmuck," 100 times more likely to use "dick," and 15,000 times more likely to use "fucking asshole."
Perhaps more startling, only 23 percent of men know what schmuck means, and only 1.2 percent of these men are under the age of 78. If such trends continue, Brooks estimates that by 2015, such lesser-used terms as "imbecile," "dummy," "schlub," and "contemptible ne'er-do-well" will all surpass schmuck, which is projected to completely disappear by the year 2020 or whenever Brooks dies.
"We must save this word!" Brooks said to thunderous applause as those in attendance began chanting "Schmuck! Schmuck! Schmuck!" "How will we be able to charmingly describe someone who acts in an inappropriate manner? Especially given the tragic loss of the word 'schmegeggie' in 2001. So I urge you: Tonight, when you get home, please, call up your family, your friends, your loved ones, and tell them they're a bunch of schmucks."
Hundreds turned out at a Boca Raton, FL demonstration to show their support for the dying word.
"I've never told anyone this before," Brooks added, choking back tears, "but my father was a schmuck."
The foundation has already raised more than $20 million, thanks to donations from supporters such as Jackie Mason, Albert Brooks, the Schtupp Institute, Sen. Russ Feingold (D-WI), and the Henny Youngman Endowment for the Preservation of Schmekel. The money will go toward projects aimed at reintegrating "schmuck" into the English lexicon, including billboards and flyers plastered with the word "schmuck," the upcoming 5K Schlep for Schmuck Awareness, and a new Mel Brooks film< /SPAN>.
"The world cannot afford to lose this valuable and versatile word," Brooks told reporters during a charity auction in Manhattan's Upper West Side Tuesday, where attendees bid for the chance to have a private lunch with Brooks and repeatedly call him a schmuck. "You can be a poor schmuck, a lazy schmuck, a dumb schmuck, or just a plain old schmuck. A group of people can be collectively referred to as schmucks. You can call someone a schmuck, and you can be called a schmuck. You can even call yourself a schmuck." Plus, it's just so fun to say, Brooks added. "Schmuck."
Many of the foundation's volunteers say they share Brooks' passion for the word "schmuck," as well as his outrage that it is slowly disappearing from everyday use. They claim that if they do not act now, the trend could create a snowball effect.
"Today it's schmuck, tomorrow it might be toochis," said SFS volunteer Harry Steinbergmann, 82. "What's next, schlemiel? Putz? Yol? Schlimazel?"
Steinbergmann went on to classify this scenario as farcockte

FUNNY!! This would probably make a great audition monologue! :D
Brooks will be appearing at Brooklyn's Francis Scott Key Junior High on Nov. 12 to give an informal lecture about his experiences using the word "schmuck," and build grassroots support among a key group of young Americans by explaining that "schmuck" is a Yiddish term for the foreskin on the head of a penis. In addition, he has hinted at the possibility of a reunion with longtime comedy partner Gene Wilder, during which the two will call each other schmucks.

Interesting with only dried fruit. I'm curious how you will end up storing it. How often do you need to add the brandy? Of course you must let me know how it comes out.
I am on FB with a West L.A. group and for the most part is is fun. This afternoon I welcomed a new member who in response thanked me and asked how I'm doing. He then sent me a friend request which I haven't responded to.
On FB I asked if he was being friendly or if I should know him. I don't know him & he is much younger, and went to a different high school so why he wants to be my friend I haven't a clue.
The semi-creepy part is the message he sent me:
"HELLO JANE U CAN REMEMBER ME OK AND U CAN STAY IN CONTACT WITH ME IF U LIKE OK. IF U LIKE TO TXT LET ME KNOW I CAN GIVE U MY CELL OK. NICE TO MEET U JANE."
Other than that, she's got good health.

Just let the musical director of our next show go - she won't be invited back, I'm afraid. She told us in advance that she was busy mid-month, but had no problem doing the show. She's done one before and she most certainly knows what I expect, which is one work session prior to rehearsals and then the other stuff. I noticed today she hadn't even responded to let me know she'd gotten all the music I'd sent six days ago - I worked so hard to get all this stuff early and be ahead of the game and not even a confirmation e-mail. So, I had Adryan Russ e-mail her and she got back a response that she'd had guests and hadn't even opened the damn e-mail from You Send It (these files expire after about five or six days) and didn't care to print anything out and that I should do it and deliver it and that she had no time to work before the rehearsal week. At that point I told Adryan to dismiss her immediately. And we have the wonderful Shelly Markham to replace her so it's all good now.

Sorry, right you said bourbon. What did you decide to store it in besides cheesecloth?
Be sure to line it with something or you will have bourbon stains ;)
So, I'm watching some clips of the Tony Awards Show. Can someone explain this to me?

What does a vegan zombie eat?
Graaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaains!
Just finished "Pushover," a nifty film noir with Fred MacMurray and, in her first role, Kim Novak. Really enjoyed the first five minutes, a bank robbery, in which no dialogue is used. The director, Richard Quine, seemed to be having fun.
What did the Buddhist say to the hot dog vendor?
Make me one with everything!
Off to block Angel Street Act Three, where there will be lots of kissing, and fighting, and tying people up. Some of it is in the script.

Many people don't know that the play's subtitle is Hogtied, Hollerin', & Hickies.
I am on FB with a West L.A. group and for the most part is is fun. This afternoon I welcomed a new member who in response thanked me and asked how I'm doing. He then sent me a friend request which I haven't responded to.
On FB I asked if he was being friendly or if I should know him. I don't know him & he is much younger, and went to a different high school so why he wants to be my friend I haven't a clue.
The semi-creepy part is the message he sent me:
"HELLO JANE U CAN REMEMBER ME OK AND U CAN STAY IN CONTACT WITH ME IF U LIKE OK. IF U LIKE TO TXT LET ME KNOW I CAN GIVE U MY CELL OK. NICE TO MEET U JANE."
That is creepy. Definitely don't accept him. Some people are creepy. While others just probably friend everyone they come into contact with. Either way you don't know him, and since he can't even spell ... well I would click ignore.

Workers are winding down - they may or may not finish today, but definitely tomorrow - the last of the painting is happening now - all of the lattice work on the patio - boy does that help. Originally they weren't going to do it, so I offered to pay half (it wasn't much) and that did the trick. they've been very good to me here, and have never raised the rent in eight years.
You have been lucky. I hope that doesn't change after all the work they are doing.
I don't think it will - they really like having me here.
Probably nice. Good home renters are worth keeping & appreciated more, IMHO, than apartment renters.
During lunch, I made a Whiskey Nut Cake. It had to bake for three hours.

At what temperature?
Vet called with Callie's results. She still has high calcium levels, but she always has had. Interestingly enough, I just read online of people thinking there's a connection between lactulose and high calcium. She also has high cholesterol. That may be because she just ate before we went to the vet. Anyway, if I want more tests to figure out the calcium, I can do it. Since she's been that way for at least 8 1/2 years, I don't think it's worth messing with
I'll have you all know I just unjammed the ice-maker in my fridge.
I hear thunder...

LOL-Understandable.
How long has she been on lactulose?

Well, it was there when I watched it, TCB. It was the Rascals.
