Well, you've read the notes, the notes read swimmingly, and now it is time for you to post until the swimming cows come home.
-
And the word of the day is: ENSKY!
-
Morning all.
That is all.
-
Good morning, all.
Went to bed very early, dead tired from the day's adventures in Tarnation, U.S.A., and woke up at 3:30 AM tossing and turning. It took me a few minutes to realize that I was actually comfortable and fairly well rested. Finally accepted that sleep wasn't returning any time soon, and decided to ketchup.
-
Which was a good idea because I missed a few pages of postings last night.
-
Okay, that's all for now. Will get some more rest before actually getting up. (Been ketchuping via smartphone in bed.)
-
Good morning, all.
-
good morning to all
-
Tuesday morning greetings! Very busy day ahead for me, so I got up early to enjoy a little puttering time before it starts. Have to take a box of books and some sweet treats to the book sale venue and pick up a stack of our promotional bookmarks. Then I'll come home, clean up, have lunch, and head for Miami University's Voice of America learning center for an afternoon meeting, dinner, and my evening class.

TOD:
I'd like to go to Cape Cod. Why? It's all Patti Page's fault.
-
:)
-
Good morning.
Tuesday vibes. Glorious vibes for everyone.
;)
-
I also went to bed early last night, 9:30pm is early for me, tossed and turned all night.
But, I need to get used to trying 7 or 8 hours every night, instead of this just 4,5,or 6.
Which is not working too well. ;D
-
And the day begins.
Shower, drive, work, coffee.
Did I mention coffee. And cookies.
:)
-
Note to self. Order 2 cd's when I get home tonight. Keep forgetting.
-
:)
-
Good morning!
-
Good morning again.
But this time...
Coffee!! :)
-
Good morning, all! Another restless night, so I slept in. I am bathed, dressed and on my first cup of coffee. At some point today I expect to hear from my friend Susanna Moross Tarjan, who's in town for a Jerome Moross event at Columbia this evening. I wanted to go, but I still cannot negotiate stairs well enough.
Today, I will do some work on a Moross score, if i can find the music buried on my desk. I've decided that this weekend I must go into Toyland, just to check on the place and hopefully accomplish some work. I must pay a couple of bills today as well.
I'd like to get to Paris before I die, as well as more of England and Ireland.
-
Well Stojko did mention Toronto, but I thought he said he was coming to Broadway afterwards....maybe not.....I was just watching in passing.....
-
TOD:
Rome.
-
I would like to read Earl Holliman's autobiography, but he probably wouldn't write about what I was interested in reading......
-
Off to the shop to pick up my car. Dead battery.....$125.
-
TOD:
Being a Western buff, I would like to visit the Little Big Horn.
-
BK, I think this recording is demanding a Kritzerland reissue!
-
Well Stojko did mention Toronto, but I thought he said he was coming to Broadway afterwards....maybe not.....I was just watching in passing.....
Actually you were right. Well we're both right. The news here was of him doing Chicago in Toronto.
But he will be doing it on Broadway for one week in March. When I did a search it only showed the Toronto news.
-
vixmom - Wow, glad the 21st century Oldies book arrived in company of Dearest Enemy.
-
The parody book is on Kindle, though the format is more consistent in the print version.
You can search on amazon for
fred landau kindle
and it pops right up.
-
BK, I think this recording is demanding a Kritzerland reissue!
Whoa! That's the one album among those that I never seemed to come across on vinyl in my record hunting days, no idea why, and I haven't heard it at all.
-
To make an extra post, here's the direct link
http://www.amazon.com/21st-Century-Oldies-Parody-ebook/dp/B00FQ8VBVS/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&sr=&qid=
-
To get to page 2 -
It was #72 in "Parodies" books earlier in the week (I took a pdf of that, of course, doubt it'll get into the Parody 100 again unless a miracle happens), among lots of distinguished parody books in that 100.
Not sure if that's measured by traffic to the page or sales or both or a combination of factors.
-
We just got our first review on Amazon for DEAREST ENEMY and it's good. I get a slam for my brass writing being 1930s and 1940s, but since the reviewer is vague about which brass sections, it's hard to know if he's knocking my work or the original late 1920s rescoring I worked from! I wonder if he's actually listened to much authentic 1920s vrass playing.

Speaking of Elvis, did I miss discussion of Norway's
YLVIS with "What Does the Fox Say"

TOD: STRATFORD ON AVON. Don't know why I've never been would love to see the Royal Shakespeare Company...which I've seen many times... perform in their home theatre.
-
TOD: San Francisco.
When I was doing the high-powered legal stuff for those years, we took a trip there for an acquisition, and pretty much went from the hotel to the office for the meetings and work, and except for some nice meals, never had time to see the town, which looked great.

AAA will install a battery on site out here.

DR TCB: Re: James Spader!
DITTO. He's the only reason I haven't watched an episode. And he's quite reason enough.
Feel the same way, actually, about Robin Williams (different reasons, but the same "ugh" applies).
-
DR vixmom:
Quite the ordeal over the weekend. Pardon me if I confess you had me chuckling about all the awakenings shortly before you needed to be somewhere.
-
Good morning.

I want to experience it.

Mumbai (formerly known as Bombay).
I am sure I don't need to say why :)

DR Ron Pulliam, I don't know if I have mentioned this, but lately you have been looking as young as springtime.

From DR TCB:
Now let me get this straight, Jane. You are teaching Keith computer things??
LOL No, library things :) After fiddling with both his Samsung smart phone & his iPad, downloading from the library to my Nook is MUCH easier. I think now I'm glad I couldn't find a cover for the Samsung Tab and am sticking with my Nook.
-
DR MBarnum I know people who rescue Bernese Mt. Dogs and see dogs of pets in need on FB. My concern is my own safety if we get a dog. Almost every dog has inadvertently caused me some kind of injury. I admit, I like getting up at night at not worrying about tripping over an animal. Plus the sad fact that I cannot take the dog hiking on my own.
If we do get a dog maybe I can get it trained as a service dog to protect me from getting knocked down.
-
Dogs are always nice to have.
DR JENNIFER - I am sure Elvis will be as good in NYC and he is in Toronto.
-
Good morning. I'm home. Trying to get things together and get motivated. The "Dearest Enemy" CD came when I was away, as well as my new iPhone 5s. Both are exciting. I still haven't seen DD Ben yet. My pal Judy, whom Ben stayed with while I was gone, is bringing him to choir rehearsal this evening. So much to do today, one of which might be purchasing a bass guitar. Which is daunting, but exciting.
-
DR LAURA, if only I had followed my thought - that is was indeed the battery - I could have saved myself a tow fee. But I thought it was the starter.....
That's what I get for not trusting my own thought.
-
Finished and submitted my review on the book BEVERLY GARLAND HER LIFE AND CAREER. The book is for fans of Beverly Garland...my review probably is not.
-
LOL, JRand!
-
Everyone in my office is off to San Francisco to visit a furniture showroom to see the latest in office furniture product, have lunch and meet with new reps at the manufacturer's showroom.
Except for me. I am blissfully immersed in silence for the next couple of hours. Just me and my PC.
-
I know. I can order lunch.
-
I can also start Page 3.
-
I could/should walk the lake. Don't wanna, tho.
-
elmore, that Shelly Manne Li'l Abner has been on CD for ages. I have it and love it, along with my Percy Faith version.
-
I'm up and have been so since nine-thirty. Just had a visit from Terry Trotter and will now stare at my song list for an hour or so.
-
Good morning, all!
Last errand day here before I fly. Yipes!
TOD:
London, Scotland and the Irish countryside.
After all of my worldly travels, though our ship often docked in Dover, I could never go into London because it was a quick turnaround day for the crew. I'd love to go for a few weeks, take in the feel of the place, and see tons of theater.
Irish countryside (and Dublin, Galway and Antrim) - it's the culture I was brought up in with my mother being a Gilligan, and no doubt the side that gave me my singing genes. I've been to Cork and Blarney (yes, kissed the stone), but again, all too swiftly. And I grew up seeing photos of the Countryside. I need to go there... and sing in a pub with the locals.
Scotland - when I met Billy Connelly (who is Scottish and Irish), and we talked about travels, he asked if I'd been to Scotland. I said, "No, only Ireland". He said, "Oh, you have to go to Scotland. Scotland look like Ireland thinks it looks." :)
-
I watched a terrific movie the other night, SIDE EFFECTS, directed by Steven Soderbergh and starring Jude Law.
It's a thriller with 2-3 very surprising plot twists...and, these days, I am not easily surprised.
-

Added a couple more song choices for the revue.
-
bk, what is your revue about? And when is it?
-
SHREK (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00E4XR7TG/) has arrived in Tumwater!

Good morning again.

Coffee!! :)
I like my caffeine cold and carbonated. :D

My sister and her daughter and her boyfriend have gone to SF several times and they've never asked me to go with them. :P I would love to go...just to say that I've gone.
The one time I went to NYC, several of us went to Greenwich Village and we walked by Stonewall Inn. I got a picture of the plaque that was on the building, so I've been to that gay Meca. ;D
-
I'll get the Shelly Manne CD, then. Got the Percy Faith LP.
-
The revue is based on the songs of Newley and Bricusse, mostly together, but a handful of songs they wrote by themselves - but no songs they wrote with other partners.
-
I also went to bed early last night, 9:30pm is early for me, tossed and turned all night.
But, I need to get used to trying 7 or 8 hours every night, instead of this just 4,5,or 6.
Which is not working too well. ;D

I've bought all 9 volumes of the MAIGRET series with Bruno Cremer on the MHz Networks label which contain all 54 episodes. I was able to sell my four French box sets which contained 40 episodes for more than I originally bought them, so ended up paying no extra.
MHz Networks present the episodes in chronological order of production which is better than the jumbled way they were presented on the French boxsets (I think they selected the best episodes first). The final 54th episode is very sad to see because by then Bruno Cremer was ill with mouth cancer (he was a heavy cigarette smoker). And apart from looking ill, his voice had to be dubbed by another actor.
It's a wonderful series of films, with great atmosphere, and I never get tired of re-seeing them.

Simply has arrived!

Pleasant as home is,
It isn't what Rome is!

When I read this, I thought it was a good idea IF the story was something like this....
I always thought that Bobby should "come out" in the story. Doing all he could to live up to the expectations of his "friends" in the story, but eventually had enough of trying and would come out.
But I don't like this new concept.

Back from a wonderful lunch with two of our cast members, one of whom I was meeting for the first time and who I liked immediately.

Sandy's "simply (http://www.kritzerland.com/bainum_simply.htm)" has arrived in Tumwater!! :D
-
I'm up and have been so since nine-thirty. Just had a visit from Terry Trotter and will now stare at my song list for an hour or so.
BK, recently you've mentioned several lunches/visits with Terry Trotter. Might a new project be on the horizon?? Or just friends having lunch together?
-
Then I check out the FSM board and guess who's back trying to cause her usual trouble and failing miserably. Yes, that's right, 3D Diffusion. Not only has herself, but she creates yet another username to do her dirty business - that name was banned instantly. She's still coming here 24/7 looking for ways to cause trouble. In the FSM thread she even brought up John Yap for some unfathomable reason, as if that had anything to do with anything, and implying that I'd told someone else to shut him up - wow. I'm thrilled to have a lovely board where I can point this out to anyone who comes here, because the depths of this woman's obsession and illness knows no bounds. It's pathetic, and she just doesn't seem to be able to stop. It seems she's made me the focal point of her entire existence. There's a name for that, isn't there? Oh, yes, stalker. Since we know she's reading this and every other word I write anywhere on the Internet, maybe some day she'll actually stop this nonsense and perhaps have a nice, productive life. If you hate someone, what's the best path of action, do you suppose? To let the person you hate create a cancer in your body? Brilliant. If I don't like someone, I move on, never think about them again, and don't let anything about them enter my world at any time. Not our 3D Diffusion. Note to 3D Diffusion - really, seek help.

Terry has written a musical and he's asking my advice on it. He's basically retired now and while he does play occasional gigs around town, he doesn't really ever want to go into the studio again.

That's too bad about him not wanting to record again (bad for us, I mean). But it's pretty cool that he's written a musical. Hope it does well!

Connecting here? Nope.

I'm glad it was only me. Maybe it didn't last long enough for anyone to notice. I gave up after several tries and had work to do anyway. Fortunately the links I needed for the work opened just fine.

Naturally the package that should have been here much earlier is still not here - thank you Ontrac for your continuous wretched service.

It will probably arrive close to six now, which is incredibly irritating.

Would love to go to Argentina, Peru, Australia and the Pacific Northwest.
-

Well, Sondheim probably wants to keep working and maybe rewriting is easier than writing. Tom jones pulled the same thing with the last FANTASTICKS production, and I don't think the new lines are better. I've heard he's doing the same with I DO, I DO,and it's already happened with 110 IN THE SHADE, I think.
-
DR LAURA, if only I had followed my thought - that is was indeed the battery - I could have saved myself a tow fee. But I thought it was the starter.....

They tested the battery and the alternator before they replaced the battery.

Indeed.

There is only one dog for us now. Little dogs can easily be tripped over and they are a pain to keep lifting up when they can't walk, hard on my arms that ache to begin with. I know this from doing it with my sister's dog. Big dogs are often more gentle than the little ones. It is really walking with any size dog that attracts dogs other people don't control and where I get in trouble.
When Buddy was here running around with me I knew within a minute I didn't have to worry about him.
-
DR Jennifer, we have only considered larger dogs. Larger as in bigger than Sherlock was-lol
-
Watching Abbott and Costello movies today. They've met Boris Karloff, the invisible man, Dracula, Frankenstein and Marjorie Main. Glad I'm on the last one in the set, something called Lost in Alaska.
-
Five.
-
DR Jennifer, we have only considered larger dogs-lol
Yep other dogs can be trouble. Today there was a lady walking her two little dogs on the bike path (not the path at the lake). One of the dogs tried to jump in front of my bike.
I wasn't close to hitting him since I was riding as far from him as possible. And i had my hands on my brakes. But I don't get it. There was a huge green space beside the bike path. Why have your dog walking on a bike path if you know your dog is likely to jump in front of a bike. Just not safe for the dog.

I added to my comment, bigger as in dogs larger than Sherlock was.
Echo was a bike jumper/chaser and I worked very hard at breaking her of that habit. I had to watch carefully for bikes and tell her to "leave" before she even began to chase. I then did the same with Sherlock. I don't get those idiots either.

Thanks! I've seen most of the profiles on the A TIME TO KILL FB page. I'll be curious to hear about it from anyone who sees it. I do want to go, just depends on a lot of things. I'm still hoping for January, but it may not happen

Great!

DR John G - I made an apple pie, it was very good, I made an apple crisp, it was also very good. I gave a bag of apples to Paul. I still have a bunch in my fridge. Edith doesn't like apples. So, I haven't been able to take what I make to work and that's a problem because I eat the whole thing. Over a number of days, but still.
Bob starts sharing space on Monday, so I'm planning to make a pie or something and take it to work. I'm sure he'll appreciate apple pie and there never is much going on in the beginning.
-
RH was writing one of his first drafts when I was doing a murder trial. We had many good discussions about all sorts of law and justice issues. I didn't know he was working on it at the time but he did say several times that something or other was like A Time To Kill. I found out later why he kept making that reference. That's why I really want to go. I'm very curious to see how his adaptation turned out.
-
He was also on a jury not to long before that. It was a criminal case. So he has a perspective that many of us never get to have of a trial.
-
I can't think of a TOD. I guess that means I'm happy where I am :)
-
Cilla did you try John G's apple and onions recipe? I never heard of it before John mentioned it and now we have it quite often - it's great with pork and chicken
-
I would like to go many many places - if money and time were no object i would probably be constantly on the move... must be my gypsy heritage

DARN IT! I forgot to go to the movie theatre and buy a ticket for Merrily We Roll Along

DR Jane if you get a bigger dog can you just walk him around your property when you are alone. And only take the dog to the hiking paths when Keith is with you and can control the leash?

Watching "Evil Under the Sun." Love the use of the Cole Porter music in the background and the bitchy nature of the script always makes me smile. I know the movie is not well regarded, but I find it a guilty pleasure.

Seriously, over these past few days I've gotten every annoying thing cleared off my plate for the next few days. Tomorrow is a dedicated listen to DEAREST ENEMY, a few hours practice on I LOVE YOU, YOU'RE PERFECT, NOW CHANGE, and a couple of good movies. And damn it, that's all. The day is mine. All mine!

You can buy them on-line...unless you just don't want to do that.

What he said. :)

Well, time to head home, feed the cat, feed myself and watch some TV.
Be back later.
-
Is Vixmom sawing logs?
-
Love hearing the song "Simply" again.
-
Thanks, JohnG!
-
Page five? Really?
-
Finished with my viewing, which was the new Star Trek movie. Loud.
-
Lanny's arrangements are really fun. Loving the piano on "On the Other Side of the Tracks."
-
Page Six!

Oh dear, is the new CD out? I'm so behind.

Finished about 500 words tonight.
And that's all he wrote.
Good night, all.

I can't sleep. I'm having some cereal.

DR TCB: Re: James Spader!
DITTO. He's the only reason I haven't watched an episode. And he's quite reason enough.
Feel the same way, actually, about Robin Williams (different reasons, but the same "ugh" applies).
Thanks Ron. I am glad to know it isn't just me.
-
I Can't Sleep, I'm Having Some Cereal - that's the title of my next novel. Listening to what I hope will be our next release. I'm told we should have approval on it and the one after tomorrow, then I can breathe a bit easier.

T.O.D.
My first thought was the locker room of the Seattle Seahawks on game day, but that seemed a bit obvious.
My second choice is Tahiti.
-
BK, please tell Sandy for me that I am in awe of her beauty and her talent!
-
Soup is on the stove, bbq pork shoulder going into the crock pot tomorrow morning. I'll be set for dinner for my mom and brother tomorrow night. DB is staying over for a few nights.
-
And while we are on the subject; I am honored to be able to say that I know two such gifted artists as elmore and BK. I have experienced such pleasure today listening to DEAREST ENEMY and SANDY BAINUM "SIMPLY."
And BK, that song Simply is a killer.
-
elmore, that Shelly Manne Li'l Abner has been on CD for ages. I have it and love it, along with my Percy Faith version.
Shelly Manne put out a Percy Faith CD?
-
Good morning, all!
Irish countryside (and Dublin, Galway and Antrim) - it's the culture I was brought up in with my mother being a Gilligan, and no doubt the side that gave me my singing genes. I've been to Cork and Blarney (yes, kissed the stone), but again, all too swiftly. And I grew up seeing photos of the Countryside. I need to go there... and sing in a pub with the locals.
DR Ryacko, I would love to be there for that.

So, Sondheim is working on "Company" and the Roundabout is doing a reading of a gay version. Feckin ridiculous.

Gee, why doesn't Steve just write a musical version of BOYS IN THE BAND, and leave COMPANY alone?

TOD:
Would love to go to Argentina, Peru, Australia and the Pacific Northwest.
You are welcome here anytime John G.

You can buy them on-line...unless you just don't want to do that.
You would think they could find one damn theater here in Tacoma to show these films!
-
Time to read a little JFK conspiracy and listen to Barry Manilow. The two just seem to go together.
G'night!
-
I suggest the Cost Plus corn chowder soup starter mixy thingy. Very yummy

Tom, I'd be happy to pick you up and drive you down to Olympia to see it. :)

I'm watching tonight's "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D."
-
I just watched the last two episodes before this.
-
I really enjoy this show.
-
I never watched any of the "Avengers" movies.
-
There have been some references that I don't know about, but nothing major.
-
BK, I added Sandy's album to castalbums.org (http://castalbums.org/recordings/Simply-2013-Sandy-Bainum/27433).
-
Well...

...since we're so close...
