Well, you've read the notes, the notes were exhausted, and now it is time for you to post until the exhausted cows come home.

And the word of the day is: AUSPICATE!

I know some video was shot last night, so hopefully I'll be able to post a couple of things tomorrow, along with some photographs.

BK, as always, congrats on the success of your successful singing series!! :D
-
Good early morning again.
Up after after only a few hours sleep.
-
Regarding On the Twentieth Century... somewhere I had read that Prince kept nagging Kahn that she wasn't giving a full performance. Finally, at one performance, she went full out - singing, acting, getting all the laughs. Hal came back to her after the performance and said something to the effect of - You got it, that was it, don't change a thing! To which she replied, Surely you don't expect me to to that 8 times a week?
-
I agree with DR George - hoping that bk will post some video from yesterday's shows. Congratulations to the entire company on two very successful shows!

I had this really weird dream.... Somehow I was working for Dick van Dyke. He was calling Mary Tyler Moore, who was on vacation in Hawaii, but he didn't want to be alone with her on the phone. So he asked me to get on the phone, too. (In the dream it made sense because we were all going to be working together on something). She wasn't initially too warm to my joining them, but I made small talk about Hawaii and kept things moving along. Bizarre!

TOD:
I will be traveling for most of the day. Driving an hour to the airport and then spending two hours or so checking in and going through security. Miami International is one of the busiest airports in the USA and has the only direct/non stop flight this time of year that I need.
I am flying up to Montreal to spend the Jewish New Year with my family. This is strange since we are Roman Catholic.
I am taking my beloved Kismet to spend the week at Pet Hotel where he will sleep and play with many other dogs and on his final day be treated to spa treatment (Shampoo, manicure, teeth brushing, ear cleaning and anal gland cleaning) I've experienced everything except the last item on the list so I know what my dog will enjoy everything.
Now of course I'm not really Roman Catholic, but I wanted people to say Whaaaat??!!
-
Hope everyone has a great Labor Day.

BK
If you can remember can you ask Bob Gitt if he is working on a Blu Ray release of the original Lost Horizon. I would love to see if the last technologies can improve even more on all the wonderful work he has done on the film.

A most happy birthday to Ron Pulliam!!!

I am intrigued by a quote ad in yesterday's New York Times Book Review. The ad is for a new novel entitled "Alex," by Pierre LeMaitre. One of the quotes reads: ...Makes Lizbeth Salander look like Mary Poppins. >:(

So much for a good night's beauty sleep - two hours doesn't quite do it, but hopefully I'll fall back asleep at some point.
-
TWO HOURS??!! You're probably all keyed up from the double header yesterday.

Good morning, all.
Got a few people coming over later today for a nice low-keyed get-together, so mostly need to continue straightening things up that had recently suffered some crookeding.

A very happy birthday to DR Ron!

Good morning!

The show last night sounds wonderful. I would especially hope someone captured "Three Friends" on video. And more, too. Always more.

Happy birthday, DR Ron Pulliam.

DR Mike: Travel vibes and whaaaaaaaat?
-
I'm praying the decongestant works today. The Benedryl only worked part of the time, so I didn't get a great deal of sleep.
-
It's off to Austin and barbecue food trucks today.
-
Mike: Interesting Rashamon take on "20th Century." Kahn's version of what happened and Prince's. Sounds like an echo of Dean Jones' leaving "Company." Wonder what the truth actually is.
I know he tried to get the album redone with Judy Kaye, but Columbia refused. And he made sure Kaye was featured in all of the photos for the vocal score.
-
Glad the shows went wonderfully!

DR JRand, thank you for the nice words about my interview with the Punjabi actor. The interview seems to be quite a hit in India, and I now have 3 more Punjabi actors lined up for interviews!
-
TOD:
Hopefully will get some things done around the apartment. A couple of friends invited me to go to the movies to see THE BUTLER. I am supposed to go see it with a co-worker, so I may not go today. But I will see it at some point.
-
You are welcome....it was most entertaining and informative. He certainly didn't hold back in what he thinks the reasons for success or failure are.... And of course the photos are nice, too.
-
Walking to the mailbox vibes for DR ELMORE.
-
I did make it to the post box and back. It was an ordeal but it had to be done. When I got down to my ground floor and out the door, I had to sit down on a step to ease the pain. Then I got across the street and mailed the payments. Standing at the postbox and waiting for the light was intense, so once I got back to my side of the street, I sat down again to let things ease up on my legs.
The worst part was dealing with the sympathetic neighbors; I don't want to stand on two painful legs and explain the situation, then hear their offers of help or suggestions. I know they mean well, and I do appreciate their concern. Just let me get through the mess and then I can be friendly.

DR John G.....do you ever get tired of eating BBQ?
-
Pain free vibes to Elmore!!!
-
TOD - I have already mowed the yard and have the second load in the washer. One more and I'll be done with that. I plan to go around the house and go through the piles of misc stuff I need to sort (junk mail, magazines etc) and then vacuum the house. I also plan to clean the kitchen and maybe cook or bake something fun. Haven't decided what yet
-
Yesterday I went to visit my parents. After I fixed dad's tv and internet (they got frustrated and had unhooked all the cables..sheesh!) After that we worked on a jigsaw puzzle, went to a flea market, and then went out for ice cream. It was a fun relaxing day.
-
Our heat wave broke Saturday night. Saturday day was unbearable, but I went to our annual Artsplash (109 artists, musicians, great food vendors etc). I had a nice time until I practically had a heat stroke. Well it wasn't that bad, but it was starting to make me feel ill....that's when I know I have to cool off.
-
Happy Anniversary to DR Kate and DH Jerry!
-
Happy anniversary to Kate.
-
DR Singdaw,
Thanks so much for the beautiful Anniversay Card.
Also, I love the Song "Who Knows Where The Time Goes" sung by Judy Collins.
In fact We saw her about 8 years ago and She signed my minature guitar.
-
I fell back asleep around five-thirty, I guess, and slept until Barry Pearl called at ten-thirty - so I guess I got around seven hours of sleep somehow. Exhausted, but I'm sure I'll doze off at some point. It is already 77 in the house so I'd imagine it must be in the 90s outside.
-
Thanks DR Ginny!
-
Thanks BK!
-
At Artsplash I found these cats. The Calico was basically like this, the middle cat was brown and darker brown striped and the one on the right was gray and white. The artist offered to custom paint the gray one to look like Boo, so I bought them. She painted it but it was so humid out that it didn't dry. She put them in a sack and the paint ran all over. So she told me what paint to buy so I could touch them up and finish them. Here is the end result.....Callie Ricky and Boo

Thanks DR ArnoldMBrockman!
-
Thanks Brother Kevin!!
-
Happy Anniversary Kate!
-
I'm thinking about adding some white dots for whiskers on Boo. She does have white whiskers, it may define her face better
-
As I painted Boo's, she posed. When I moved on to Ricky, she jumped down and walked away. It was really funny
-

Just got great news about our next Kritzerland show - The Story Goes On: The Songs of Maltby and Shire - Sally Mayes is coming in to do it - this has taken four weeks to make happen but I'm thrilled - she, of course, was one of the original stars of the Maltby and Shire revue, Closer than Ever.
-
DR Cillaliz - those critters are adorable!
Also, thank you for reminding me that I definitely need to accomplish some loads of laundry today.
-
Great news, bk. That will be some show. Love Maltby & Shire's work!
-
Happy Happily Ever After, DR Kate!
-
Thanks DR Laura!
-
Well, I will be starting Kritzerland soon. I am looking forward to it.
-
Congrats to Diana Nyad! 5th time is a charm... She made it swimming from Cuba to Florida
-
I am having a big bowl of fresh Missouri peaches (not to be confused with the Colorado or California peaches) with vanilla bean ice cream. They were cheaper than the Colorado or California peaches but still taste very yummy
-
DR Singdaw thanks and glad to remind you about laundry. I like that chore because most of the time I can sit and relax and do other things... like eating ice cream with fresh peaches
-
Happy Birthday to DR Ron Pulliam!!
-
Happy Labor Day, all!
I made it to the day off after tech hell, and other dramas.
BK, Congrats on the success of your Anniversary show!! It killed me not to be able to be there, and I am thrilled to hear that everyone rocked both shows.
TOD: I'd like to lay around like a stalk of brocoli (or so many fish?), but I have some food to buy, laundry to do, and a week of previews to prep for. We open Saturday night.
I hope everyone will have a wondrous day! :)

Thanks DR Cillaliz!!

Boy, this has steadily turned into the crappiest day ever. Good thing all I needed The Great Outdoors for was to throw a few things on the grill. It's also a good thing I can just pull the grill underneath the overhang and let it rain. I wonder if it's going to break any of this humidity. Nah, probably not.
-
Happy Anniversary to DR Kate!
-
Sounds like the show went well yesterday. Great news!

Happy Anniversary to DR KATE and her Husband.

Very nice DR CILLA LIZ!!! I love the ceramic cats!

Continued Page Five Pain Be Gone Vibes to DR ELMORE.

I just finished the lobby slide show for HARVEY and as it is being burned to DVD - the director sent me another photo to include. I told him if for technical reasons I had to redo it, I would use the photo;
-
I've been on the phone for the last hour. The first call was somewhat horrifying to me - the producer of Totally Hidden Video, a show I labored on for three long years, called me - he's done a sizzle pilot for a new hidden camera show - I'm told these things run from three to five minutes. And he wants me to come in and do it, to put it together with an editor, with the promise of doing the show if it should sell. I have been so out of that world now for a decade that the thought of going back into it makes me nauseous and makes me quiver. He's willing to let me cut it here (the show would shoot in Vegas and elsewhere) but I'm just not sure how I would negotiate all of this, time-wise. I could certainly do this sizzle reel, which would probably take a week sometime in the next two weeks, but there would be little money in it and I just don't think I want to go to that land again. Looking at the bigger picture, while doing a series would be some money (I don't know how much this stuff pays these days, but I don't think it's even as much as I was making twenty-three years ago when I was doing Hidden Video), but we're talking long days and evenings and something that wasn't an issue back then but is now - network interference and involvement. I just would not know how to do that full time and put out CDs and do the other stuff I need to do. I also think I'm twenty-three years older and to commit to that kind of schedule of fourteen to eighteen-hour days - well. I talked to my friend David Wechter, who's still in that world, and he felt like it maybe was not the right thing. I told the producer I'd let him know tomorrow and certainly I'm very flattered to be asked - my instinct is that I will say no, that I can't move things around in time to do it. But I'll leave the door open should it go to series. I think he knew that me doing this sizzle reel was last-minute so I don't think he can be upset if I can't clear things.
-
Well, that IS flattering, to be asked - but if your gut/initial reaction was horror, then that's probably your answer right there.
-
A Very Happy Birthday to Ron Pulliam!! :D

DR John G.....do you ever get tired of eating BBQ?
I think my doing West Texas first that I have gone through the worst that I'll have to taste, which is the mesquite-smoked meat. Mesquite lingers with you a while after you eat it. Went to Austin today, where oak is used. It's cleaner and I like it a little better. So, I was getting tired of the sameness of mesquite, but the oak sort of woke me up again. And I'm raring to go.

The heat is unbearable today. Either that or I'm just tired from all the traveling. Today's trip made for more than 1,000 miles in three days. And all of the food trucks in Austin were closed. On a holiday. What gives? Only ate at two places. But one was above and beyond wonderful.
-
Congrats on the casting of Sally Mayes!

Bruce there is a Hami FB page. During a discussion on teachers I asked about Bill Gordon and received the following message:
....after the 1970 teachers strike Bill went to work in Chicago for the National Education Association. After a few years there he came back to LA (Woodland Hills) and worked for the California Teachers Association as a field rep and organizer until he retired. He died about ten years ago. Myself and four other teachers from Hamilton attended his memorial service. Miss him!
-
He was a good teacher and an interesting person.
-
I then asked about his two darling boys and his troubled marriage and received more info.
He was divorced from Lois and was happily remarried to a beautiful woman he met in Chicago. His last years were good ones! The two sons are successful and great kids!
-

Astrologically a reticence until 2014 is your best bet MR BK.

After my flurry of activity this morning, I've had a pretty quiet afternoon. Found more laundry to do, and the last load is in the dryer. Other than that, I've been sitting.....that's about it. Getting hungry and not sure what I want for dinner.....
-
It's a beautiful day today. I had the windows opened most of the day. It got hot inside for a bit so I closed up and put on the air, but thinking I'll turn it back off and open up very soon

I'm at home doing absolutely nothing. The problem is that I need to do laundry, and a lot of it. I'd better get started! First, I have to take a shower, then I can wash clothes that require warm or hot water. ;)
-
I've been doing laundry since our company left today. I'm on the last load. Without a dishwasher we used every dish towel and that is what I'm doing now.
-
I never knew exploring for poop in the yard would be so very entertaining for a four year old. You should have heard Eleanor's excitement when she found the bear scat.
This morning she went to Keith with her "Who Pooped in the Park" book and asked him to take her out again. This time they went on the road to find coyote poop. Also needed, along with the book, was the tape measure to check the size of the various findings.
That reminds me, now that Eli is gone I need to sweep up the bat guano from the deck.

Back from a three-mile jog, planking and thirty sit-ups. I just want to stay in and not partay, but in about thirty minutes I'll mosey on over to the partay and probably only stay less than forty-five minutes.
-
Just watched "Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day." Glad they're turning it into a musical. Think it could be a great deal of fun.
-
Seven!
-
I went to the HHW calendar and was briefly confused as Labor Day is apparently on September 9th-lol
-
Many Thanks to DR's , Jennifer, JohnG, George, FJL, and Jane for the special beautiful cake!!
-
It's been taking forever for the HHW site to load on my computer. I know it's not my browser/connection, etc, but it's been taking a long time for pages to load. Anyone else having this issue? I hate to say this, but it started when the "new" board kicked in.
-
DR Kate I'm glad you had a special anniversary with your special man and your family. :)
-
Now DR's Get ready for my pictures. Kevin H is working on it right now as I speak. I know your all excited to see me! LOL
The picture is of me in my new kitchen. Behind me is the famous Red wall that my hubby painted! I think he did a great job.!
The other picture is me with my guitar and of course Bruce's Kritzerland book.
-
By the way, DR's before we went to dinner I read a few pages of Benjamin Kritzer. After a few pages I was already laughing out loud. It isn't often that I laugh out loud at a book.
So far it is hilarious! Can't wait to read it all!!
-
It took over 3 minutes to post my last post, and I had to change browsers to see if it posted as my screen did nothing in that time. Anyone else having this issue???
-
That took 1 second using Safari. It might be Firefox. I'm thinking of switching to Crome anyway.
Sorry for this rant.
-
DR Matthew,
Yes I did have a problem also posting, But now it seems ok.
-
Sorry, DR Matthew. I use Chrome; I have not seen this type of problem.
-
Haven't had that happen at all, DR Matthew.
-
We went to dinner at Bravo Cucina Italiana, then to Barnes & Noble. Earlier this afternoon I took a portion of homemade chili to my Mom.
-
Hello--Went to see "Blue Jasmine" with my brother and sister-in-law this afternoon and loved it!
-
Afterwards, as reported by DR Kate, we met for dinner with my other brother joining us.
-
DR Kate failed to mention that singdaw is posting the photos for her.
-

I apologize I meant that Kevin H. Emailed the pics to Singdaw who has so graciously agreed to post them for me.
Also my darling dog Sadie(The Lady) will be making her grand appearance on our site.

DR Kate - I think the red wall is really quite lovely, as are you. :)
And who could resist Sadie?
-
Hello, DR Kate - nice to see you!
-
Great pictures, Kate. (Thanks, Chop Suey.)
-
DR KevinH - thanks for the assist. I think it is lovely that your family was able to gather together to have this milestone celebration.
-
Trying a new cocktail for the evening. It's called a Dog's Nose and it was created after a drink mentioned in Dickens' Pickwick Papers.
Mix gin, a porter-style beer, a pinch of porcini powder and freshly grated nutmeg.
Glad I'm not driving. It's really strong.
-
Nice pics, DR Kate!
We should all do this now, post a picture taken with a pet or an instrument, and BK's book.
-
That took 1 second using Safari. It might be Firefox. I'm thinking of switching to Crome anyway.
Sorry for this rant.
Not having a problem. And I'm surprised. I seem to be a jinx with computers lately.
-
DR Kate - I am sure that DR George would be more than happy to crop the photo of you to create an HHW avatar that you could use here.
-
DR Singdaw,
Thank you so much for posting the pics. You did a great job.
Thanks for the compliments for me and Sadie. You are quite the gentlemen! You are one of my favorite DRs
-
8!
-
Where is the "blush" emoticon when you need it? ;D
-
DR Kate your kitchen is beautiful and so are you.
-
DD Sadie is a cutie.
-
DR Kate - I am sure that DR George would be more than happy to crop the photo of you to create an HHW avatar that you could use here.
Excellent idea :)
-
DR Singdaw :) ;)
-
DR KevinH - thanks for the assist. I think it is lovely that your family was able to gather together to have this milestone celebration.
Thank you, DR singdaw!
-
how was that?
Thanks :-)
-
Bummer. We could probably use some rain but I am very happy to have a clear day.
If it rained you may not have to sweep the bat guano

Hello Everyone:
Well today is our 30th Wedding Anniversary. I am married to the greatest guy!
I received a beautiful silver necklace and bracelet.
We just returned from The Original Pancake House.
Later we will go out to dinner to celebrate!
Congrats
-
Thanks Mike!
-
DR Kate, So good to see you and Sadie. Great Photos!
-
DD Sadie is a cutie.
She is, DR Jane, and the nicest dog ever!
-
Just got great news about our next Kritzerland show - The Story Goes On: The Songs of Maltby and Shire - Sally Mayes is coming in to do it - this has taken four weeks to make happen but I'm thrilled - she, of course, was one of the original stars of the Maltby and Shire revue, Closer than Ever.
Fantastic! Miss Byrd!
-
Thanks DR's Jane And Cillaliz!
-
DR Kate - I am sure that DR George would be more than happy to crop the photo of you to create an HHW avatar that you could use here.
That would be greatly appreciated George!
-
Goodnight All. Thanks to everyone for the well wishes and especially To DR Singdaw! :)

What is the difference between a joint and a jernt? Is a joint classier? ;D

I don't think jernt is on my publisher's acceptable words spelling list.

You pays your money and you takes your cherce.

Goodnight!

Hello, everyone.
Congrats to BK and company! I'm especially pleased that the matinee was well attended. It sounds like you have a market there. I hope you'll be able to do other matinees, as well. Any plans for that?
-
Happy Anniversary to DR Kate and her DH. I enjoyed your photos.
-
Congratulations, BK! I was thrilled to read all about both shows yesterday.
-
I had this really weird dream.... Somehow I was working for Dick van Dyke. He was calling Mary Tyler Moore, who was on vacation in Hawaii, but he didn't want to be alone with her on the phone. So he asked me to get on the phone, too. (In the dream it made sense because we were all going to be working together on something). She wasn't initially too warm to my joining them, but I made small talk about Hawaii and kept things moving along. Bizarre!
!!
-
I am intrigued by a quote ad in yesterday's New York Times Book Review. The ad is for a new novel entitled "Alex," by Pierre LeMaitre. One of the quotes reads: ...Makes Lizbeth Salander look like Mary Poppins. >:(
REALLY??!! Wow.
-
Travel vibes and a good holiday to DR Mike.
-
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO RON PULLIAM!!
-
Feel-better vibes to DRs John G and Larry. And to anyone else who needs them.
-
A very Happy Birthday to Our
Delightful (and scrappy) DR Ron Pulliam!!
-
Glad Cillaliz found something at the art festival. The cats are cute and it's always nice to find something unexpected.
-
Well, that IS flattering, to be asked - but if your gut/initial reaction was horror, then that's probably your answer right there.
Yes, very flattering. As busy as you always are, how could you possibly fit it in?
-
Congrats to Mike Barnum on your interviews.

Hello, Tom.
-
I'm praying the decongestant works today. The Benedryl only worked part of the time, so I didn't get a great deal of sleep.
I read that as, "I am praying the deodorant works today."
-
Not that you asked my opinion, BK , but I tend to agree sometimes your "gut reaction" is the one to go with
-
A neighbor came over today and helped me move a bookcase. I spent the rest of the day unpacking books and rearranging. I've been wanting to do this for some time, but could NOT with an injured ankle. I've also been in the mood to cull. It's much easier, I find, when I'm in the mood to toss. Otherwise, things may get moved around, but don't go OUT. So I'm pooped.
-

LOL. That, too! ;D
-
Off to watch DVD.
TTFN.
-
Sometimes even when I'm in the mood to cull, things still don't go out! :) But you gotta work at it whenever you can.
-

That's a daily prayer, too.

Toss? What means this word toss? I think I have so many books that they're going to collapse on top of me. Maybe I should cull, too.

I should think so. Especially among those who reside in Hell, U.S.A. :)

Listening to some early Johnny Cash that I got as an early birthday present. Beautiful stuff.
-
Pleasure to finally see you Kate! I can see the family resemblance
The red wall id very pretty!
-
You know its just sad that I can type resemblance and fail on the word IS
-
Thanks DR Jeanne.

DR John G. "Cull" is a much easier word to accept than "Toss". Our library does a huge book sale every year and accepts donations throughout the year. I haven't given them many yet, but if I was going to "cull" at least I know that the library could make some money from the books.
-
Back from a fun partay - I stayed almost two hours, just yakking with cousins Dee Dee and Alan, Tony Slide, my pal John Scott - also seen, former LA Times film critic Kevin Thomas, Marsha Hunt and the ubiquitous Norman Lloyd.
-
I didn't eat that much - most of the food came from Gelson's - I had a tiny bit of salmon, some really good slaw, which I'll now have to buy from Gelson's, a good corn salad and that was about it - not much at all.
-
Too late to start a motion picture, I think.
-
Good night, all.
I need to cull some slumber.
-
As I painted Boo's, she posed. When I moved on to Ricky, she jumped down and walked away. It was really funny
Can you get each of the kids to pose with their lookalike??
-
Do you think we can make Page Ten tonight?
-
Yes!
-

I doubt that's going to happen....I may be able to do it with photos
-
DR Cillaliz - those critters are adorable!
Also, thank you for reminding me that I definitely need to accomplish some loads of laundry today.
Remember you are washing for one.
-
Do you think we can make Page Ten tonight?
Yes. Yes, I do.
-
TCB did you see my post about the post?
-
I hear that on a clear day, you can see forever. And ever. And evermore.
I believe that is
And. ev. er. mooore.

Tommy!!!
My next door neighbor just came over - he has been on vacation for the past two weeks in going through the mail his house sitter left for him he came across a misdelivered letter!
Thank you so very much!! it will be put to good use we are planning now for our next trip!!
Thank goodness. I knew there had to be a good reason. I hope this is the second check, not the first. They have stopped payment on the first. If your neighbor has been gone for two weeks, I assume this is the second check.
Was the address wrong on the envelope??
-
It took over 3 minutes to post my last post, and I had to change browsers to see if it posted as my screen did nothing in that time. Anyone else having this issue???
Nope, not me.

Nice pictures DR Kate!
(Red to match the wall)

I would! Those are very nice pictures, Kate (and Singdaw)!

Here you go...take your pick:

The easiest thing (I think) would be to save them to your computer (remembering where you saved them) and then upload them to your profile. :)
-
Even though they're larger than the avatar size, they'll automatically resize. I think that they'll stay at the correct ratio and look normal...at least, I hope that they will.
-
I just finished watching "The Doctors Revisited: The Eighth Doctor: Paul McGann." I had never seen this on-off episode, nor really heard much about Paul McGann, but it was actually quite enjoyable...in a 1990s kind of way.
-
The problem with this whole series (and I'm sure that I've said it each time) is that the episodes were originally shot in 4:3 full-frame but for these retrospectives they've stretched out the image to fill a widescreen TV...even the non-hi def broadcast. That's so stupid! According to reviews on Amazon, the purchased DVDs give you the option to view the original full-frame version. I've recorded all eight episodes, so I don't think that I'll buy the DVDs, even for the correct aspect ratio.
-
The weird thing is that I remember watching and recording episode seven with Sylvester McCoy, but I haven't been able to find that disc, so I just re-recorded it from OnDemand and am now going through both episodes and cutting out the commercials. Then, I'll reburn episode seven and burn episode eight. That's probably when I'll find my original disc...after I've reburned it. ;)
-
Fortunately, the discs are very cheap...only about 30¢ each.
