Well, you've read the notes, the notes threw a whirling dervish out of whirl, and now it is time for you to post until the whirling cows come home.

And the word of the day is: PERSPICUOUS!

Of course, if I were in NY I would be happy to step in and direct FJL's show, but alas I am in LA.
-
BK, that would be cool if you were able to direct Fred's show. :)

Topic of the Day: Double feature: Airport AND Airplane.
;)

I was just at www.bing.com looking at their pictures of the day. It's cool that you can go back and see the last week's pictures. Anyway, I was thinking to myself that I need to get to bed so that I can get to work in the morning and it suddenly hit me only as I was looking at today's picture that I don't have to go to work in the morning! I totally forgot that it's a three-day weekend! :D
-
Morning all.
That is all.
-
Good Morning! Happy Holiday!

How I wish, how I wish today
To be in the same city as BK

Thanks for your nice wishes, George.

Good morning, all.
Coffee!
And that's all I got right now.

Stupid idiotic repeating dream had me up way too early.
-
Good morning, all! Speaking of idiotic dreams, my last one involved my trying to give Richard Rodgers the DEAREST ENEMY CD while thinking, you weren't on the comp list because you're dead. I had a very restless night and slept very poorly.
I need to reach my HMO and see if the physical referral came through before I can go to physical therapy. And I have a choral arrangement to finish.
-
Monday morning greetings! Sorry, I forgot to log out last night...
I'm off for lunch today with Becky - our last until she gets back from California and I get back from Georgia next month. We were going to have gel manicures but chickened out after some internet research. The Dr. Oz videos are particularly convincing :P

You Weren't on the Comp List Because You're Dead:
A Memoir by Larry Moore
-
Good morning!
-
Thanks for the laugh, DR elmore!
-
Good luck with your search,DR FJL!
-
Yesterday I saw The Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder. I really loved it! I agree with Ben. The leading actor, Bryce Pinkham, is just as deserving of accolades as is Jefferson Mays, who plays at least 8 characters (wonderfully). Bryce has a terrific singing voice.
And Jane Carr steals the scenes she's in. I saw her at the show and told her I was thinking of her as "Mary MacGregor" in The Prime of Miss Jean Brodies and she said you have a good memory.
-
Kevin, I'm so glad you enjoyed Gentleman's Guide. It seems to be doing OK business, at least it's still running. I was worried after the reviews that it might close up shop and quietly fold but I hope it stays around at least until the Tony awards.
-
Good luck with your search,DR FJL!
Thank you, Kevin!

You Weren't on the Comp List Because You're Dead:

Yes, excellent!
-
Are doctors' offices open today despite the holiday?
-
The garage door people are open, but they can't come out till tomorrow at 2 p.m.
I knew you all needed to know that. It is my pleasure to provide this and other essential information.
-
No physical therapy today. My HMO is closed today, so even if the referral were ready, there's no accessing it. We'll try again tomorrow.

Good morning, all.
Woke up in the middle of the night with an allergy attack. Still bothering me, but apparently I'm not alone. There are quite a few people here at work who are also suffering from the same cedar pollen.
-
Great bit, Larry. Logic rarely interferes with my dreams.

Two!

Great bit, Larry. Logic rarely interferes with my dreams.
Oscar Hammerstein was also in the dream, but I knew he was dead. Rodgers seemed happy to have the recording.

Well I came home on Sunday evening because the snow was as MUCH as they said it might be.
Yesterday we had a Noon call for a 1 p.m. start full dress rehearsal.....but technical problems delayed us until 2 p.m. We got a lot of technical problems solved so we finished about 6 p.m.
Thanks for all the vibes over the last couple of days. Tonight is our Preview audience....then we have dress rehearsals on Tuesday and Wednesday - then we are off Thurs-Sat and we open on Sunday with three additional performances Mon-Wed. Quite a strange schedule....but the DePauw Winter Term is short this year, and we competing with Rush Week and other variables.
The show actually looks pretty good considering we first stepped foot onstage one week ago today.
-
Here are a few production photos from the show.....that do not include me.
Achilles, Hector, Iphegynia I like it best when a representation of the head of the Trojan Horse flies above the stage up right....I hope I can get a picture of it...in the next couple of days.

Instant theatre!
Yesterday the Tim the director was mentioning how appreciative he was that everyone was working 100% on the project, and that he didn't plan on having a preview just SEVEN days after we started, but that thanks to everyone, we have a play.....and I agree. It is quite interesting.
Afterwards he asked for questions, wherein Hecuba (who still doesn't know her lines and blocking and can't be heard past the front row) raised her hand and announced she would miss Tuesday's rehearsal because she has a dance concert.....
I know Tim's head was about the explode, and everything got VEWY VEWY QUITE....he just said..."Really? ....you really do? Hmmmmmmmmm......" I was glad he started rehearsal and we got out of that discussion.

DR SINGDAW....do you mind if I put you on hold?

Looks good, JRand.

Saw all these postings on the other website about comments made by Richard Sherman and I'm wondering what any of this has to do with Mary Poppins or Saving Mr. Banks.
I guess I need to keep up with football even nominally more than I do.

If we had more than 24 hours to go until the preview DR ELMORE, I have a feeling that might have happened.

Greetings everyone,
Been missing for a few days or so, I know. We were in tech hell for the Ira Gershwin piece since Friday, and finished up with an invite dress rehearsal. Just recovering today and saw that we will be back to sub zero temps tomorrow. Nothing like Arctic Theater. :D
Anyway, first preview tomorrow, and opening on Friday. Then, oddly, done two and a half weeks later.
I hope everyone is well and staying warm.

I was planning on staying home and just watching TV and doing some laundry, but my friend Margo called and asked if I wanted to go to the movies...of course, I do! So, we're going to eat at Olive Garden at about 3:00, and then go see "Frozen" in 3D! ;D

That is indeed a very odd schedule of previews and rehearsals, etc., DR Jrand63. Or so it seemed to me.
BREAK-A-LEG VIBES!

Wrote a page, then went and had a chili, cheese and onion omelet and a piece of four berry pie a la mode. Nothing was really great, just okay today. Came back home and wrote two more pages and will now take a little break, then do another two or three, then try to do two or three beyond that later tonight.
-
Time for me to head to Olive Garden for lunch and then to the movies.
Be back later. Have a good day, all!

Back from a nice long lunch with Becky at our favorite Panera and my dental appointment at which I received a nice new crown. We are now hunkered down for, yes, another snowstorm.
-
Congratulations on receiving the crown, DR Ginny. I hope it was a nice ceremony.

Is it April yet?

I just finished Parts one and three of the choral medley. Part two is primarily the guest soloist, so it will be an easy choral part and I can finish that by the weekend I'm rather happy with the two big sections.
Time for dinner and then I can veg out.

I cannot believe I lost my Nook. Someone is looking for it at the Y but it wasn't turned in :(
I just realized I didn't have it when I went to read my book.

Oh, no, DR Jane! I hope they find it!

Thank you DR Vixmom. Now if only I can get my two library books to open. At the moment I'm trying to figure out how to add a password so no one else can open it.

TCB...here's the bio on the "taxi driver from Minneapolis" ok, it was limo driver. This appears to have been his first film role
Personal life
Abdi was born in 1985 in Mogadishu, located in the southern Banaadir region of Somalia. He was raised in Yemen.[1]
In 1999, at the age of 14, Abdi moved with his family to Minneapolis. He subsequently attended Minnesota State University Moorhead, located four hours northwest of Minneapolis.[1] Before entering the film industry, he worked as a limousine driver, a store-clerk at a self-employed telecommunications business in the Mall of America with his brother Guled Abdi, and disc jockey in Minnesota.[2][3]
Career
Abdi made his film debut in the 2013 movie Captain Phillips, where he stars as Abduwali Muse, a ship hijacker and pirate leader.[4][5] He received a nomination for the role from the Screen Actors Guild for the Best Supporting Actor Award. He has also been nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. Additionally, Abdi received a Golden Globe Award nomination and a BAFTA Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor.[citation needed] After the nominations, he made a number of media appearances, with plans to move to Los Angeles in February 2014.[6]
Abdi is presently directing a movie, Ciyaalka Xaafada. He has also directed several music videos.[

Here's another story about him. Didn't know about the khat charge, but I'm not surprised. A lot of the Somali's use Khat.

Jane, glad they found your Nook.
-
DR Jane: Whew!
Yup. I now have a password which I am going to hate. I turn my Nook on and off a lot.
-
Jane, glad they found your Nook.
Thanks. Now I might be able to sleep tonight. I know I would have worried about it all night if it wasn't found.

Thanks Ginny, they did find it. While they were looking I decided to drive down and it was found before I arrived :)

Glad you found it. I don't bring my kindle very many places. Because I don't want to lose it.
-
DR Jane: Whew!
Yup. I now have a password which I am going to hate. I turn my Nook on and off a lot.
I don't know if it's worth it for me to do that. But if you do end up losing your kindle i know you can call amazon and they can make it so that the person who has it cannot use it.

I am getting ready to watch the premiere of Masterchef Canada. Hope it's good.

While searching for the info on loading the password I saw the same for the Nook. I suppose a bit of damage can be done while I'm searching, or like today even noticing I lost it. Basically I only have email on there and facebook so it wouldn't be the worst thing I suppose.
-
Thanks John.
-
Have done five-and-a-half pages and will definitely do two more so I can finish the current chapter and begin a new one tonight or in the morning.

Think I'll mosey on over to Gelson's for a little evening snack of some sort - something light for sure.

No posts in an hour? And yet I see dear readers.

Give a Girl a Break was surprisingly good. Too bad the print used to make the DVD was hazy, scratchy and, well, not in prime shape. I know that BK is responsible for making me pay more attention to that.

Larry, did you work on the Encores version of Fanny? I'm watching a bootleg of it and it's joyous. I'm not going to be able to watch all of it tonight, but I love what I've seen so far.

I saw "Frozen" in 3D today and it was pretty good. I really like the songs and the score. It's not a musical version of H.C. Anderson's "The Ice Princess." It was "inspired by" it, but it's a totally different story.
