Well, you've read the notes, the notes were unknown, and now it is time for you to post until the unknown cows come home.
-
And the word of the day is: PANACEA!
-
Morning all.
That is all.

Hairspray was lots of fun. It was well done and there were some very good kids in the show. There were some sound problems and I lost some lyrics and words but it wasn't enough to make it a real problem. All this work for only 4 performances. They opened on Thursday, had a performance on Friday and 2 yesterday (matinee and evening). Some of the kids seemed a bit tired but overall the energy was good and a good time was had by all.
-
We didn't go to Olive Garden after the show. It's been raining here since Friday afternoon so we decided to go back home and order Chinese food. A nice employee of the restaurant delivered the food to us. I had chicken with string beans.
-
Tell us your impressions, DR George!

Good morning, all.
I'd set my clock for 6:30 AM but was tossing and turning well before that with little backaches that were just perceptible enough to be annoying. Turned the alarm off and laid in bed till seven. But now I'm up and at 'em. What exactly "'em" is, I don't know yet.
Coffee!

The musicals at this school run for six performances over two weekends, plus a couple of weekday morning ones for students. They used to run for three weekends, which was HELL.
-
Someone asked about DR Matthew last night. He appears to be just fine and posts frequently on Facebook.

That picture of breakfast looks excellent, singdaw. I'll have one of each.
-
A lot of shows in NYMF or the Fringe put in as much rehearsal work as an off-Broadway show, for a run for only five performances.
-
Good morning, all1 I hope I am seeing TRANSPORT at the Irish Rep this afternoon, but I've still had no word from Joshie. I was going to buy a ticket on Friday and he sent me this email: John is going to check tomorrow for Sunday matinee. Don't buy anything yet I will keep you posted.
So, I will go to Toyland, which is 5 blocks from the theatre, accomplish what I need to do and wait for further information. If I don't get to it today, that's fine. I can buy a ticket for one of next weekend's performances.
So, i'm ff to Toyland, and i have no further news at the moment.

The Zephyr Theatre!
I was in there exactly once, in the late 1970s, to see a friend perform in a play called BAGEL INCIDENT by Samuel Gerstein, about which I remember exactly nothing. At the time, my friend worked in one of my regular Beverly Hills lunch haunts, Bon Appetit on Beverly Drive. I hadn't remembered the horseshoe seating, but the one picture on their website brings it back well enough. Miraculously, the program survives. It contains ads for Fellini's, which I'm not sure I was ever in, and Posh Bagel and Bagel Nosh (do you detect a pattern here?).
-
It's a sunny day on a Sunday!
-
I see the Zephyr is in the block to the east of the original Johnny Rocket's (still there), and if I'm not mistaken, the Thai restaurant Tommy Tang's was in that building on the other corner, between the two. But those came in the 1980s when Melrose fairly exploded with excitement. That was a wonderful time.
-
Re: The expensive Funny Girl.
You also get an LP version, a CD version and booklet. People are complaining that they didn't include the alternate mono versions especially Cornet Man.
(http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/81rw5kjzoOL._SL1500_.jpg)
-
I love the Johnny Rocket's in Hoboken.
The other one I've been to, in Atlantic City, was a little less exciting, IIRC.
-
That set looks wonderful, as far as the (presumably high quality) vinyl pressing and the reproduction of the original art is concerned. But the price is crazy, and I've read some of the complaints about the lack of those other tracks. I'm no expert on Funny Girl, but it certainly does seem like this kind of thing could have been so much more.
-
But as soon as it hits the five-dollar bin in Walmart, I'm there!!! :D
-
Good morning. We had family visiting and were very busy there for a while.

Greetings from Toyland!

Happy Sunday to one and all....the newest Broadway Radio Show is available for listening and this time we will chat with MAC Award winning songwriter Tom Toce about his picks for his 12 favorite showtunes. Tom was on a few weeks ago discussing his new CD and now he's back to chat about songs by other writers that he loves. It's a fun and interesting show....give it a listen!

Johnny Rockets didn't make it here. There was one on the River Walk, but it didn't attract enough business, and one bite of the burgers could tell you why. There is one left in town, but it's part of an amusement park.

Good Morning ALL:
Well DR"S, it was one year ago today, on March 30, 2013 at 6:14 PM that I joined this great group of people.
I want to say that I have enjoyed being a part of this unique Forum.

TOD:
BK, I and the hubby watched THE BOOK THIEF last night.
My question to you is: Did you guess who the NARRATOR was?
I actually did!
It was a very good Movie!
-
Well it snowed again yesterday.
Right now my ambitious hubby is snowblowing our driveway.
Let's hope we will be SNOW-FREE in April!
-
On Friday, my nephew Patrick had his GRAND OPENING of his new FITNESS CENTER, called HYBRID!
It was a smashing success with a tremendous turn out!
May God bless him and I wish him well!
-
On April 13, Patrick will be trying out for THE AMERICAN NINJA WARRIOR in Colorado.
Please All wish him luck!

Goodbye for now :) ;) :D

Guess which game show premiered on television 50 years ago today?
What is 'Jeopardy,' Alex? :)

No word from Joshie, so I guess I am not seeing TRANSPORT this afternoon. I love my adopted son dearly, but I just wish he'd have let me get a ticket on Friday, and it would be done. I hate sitting around waiting for a yea or nay.
-
The problem with people saying "let me get back to you" is that, no matter how well-intentioned they may be, they rarely do. ???
-
I'm up - once again the thoughtless neighbors were out there at nine with whoever's baby it is - Cole seems to be the name of it. And again, they were out there just long enough to wake me up and keep me up for ten minutes, after which, as always, they disappear never to be heard from again.
-
The COLE PORTER - that's the name of the carriage in which Cole is carried
-
Or would that be the Cole (Trans)Porter
-
A Little Cole Porter shtick (very little)
I enjoy a little chat
Though the chat may be old hat
But the brat's right by your flat so oy and vey
And I'm always waking you, neighbors, in my fashion
Yes I'm always waking you, neighbors, in my way
-
No tax returns today.
-
Maybe a good day to do the family's extensions
-
Just one more on the way to page 3:
I love chatter in the evening
I love chatter late at night
I love chatter that's at lunch time when it's sunny
I love chatter over dinner when it's funny
I love chatter in the morning
Every morning of the year
I love chatter, I tell you, Cole, that I love chatter
But please don't chat right here
-
Go Blue!
-
Wonderful, FJL.
-
Wishing DR Kate's nephew Patrick mucho success, both on the opening of his fitness center and on his television audition.
And more wishes.

Short ribs are braising right now. Cauliflower is roasted. In a few hours, I head off to a tagine party that a friend who owns an olive orchard is throwing. She has a collection of tagines and wanted to have some fun putting them to good use. I didn't realize you do a lot of the work ahead of time and assemble. And you can use a Dutch oven, too.
-
Thanks, John G!
-
Any news on whether Larry got a ticket?
-
Will we find out before page 3?
-
DR Jane I am finally reading Wild Justice by Kelley Armstrong (the last book in the Nadia Stafford series). Did you ever read it? I think that you had read the first two books. It's probably been like 4 or 5 years since I read book two. But my library only got book 3 a couple of months ago (even though it came out in November). I'm looking forward to reading it.
I've been doing a review/e-book challenge for the month of March. So this will be the first paper book I've read in a while.
-
Three.
Slow going today, say what?
-
Well, they can't say we didn't get to page three.
-
They can say anything about us they want, but they can't say that.
-
Happy HHW Anniversary to DR KATE.

-
And I am home. Around 3:15, i heard from Joshie; he's trying to get me and harpist Karen Lindquist, who's played several Irish Rep shows, tickets for the same performance so we can all step out afterwards, That would be a lot of fun.
So, I accomplished a lot at Toyland, and I have some work to do here.
-
well remember when I said as long as it's not snow I'm not complaining?
-
I lied.
-
The basement has a nice clean floor thanks to all the water I mopped up = and all the "basement" towels in the house have been washed and dried, several times

BK, I and the hubby watched THE BOOK THIEF last night.
My question to you is: Did you guess who the NARRATOR was?
I actually did!
It was a very good Movie!
I didn't think the movie kept the narrator but it shouldn't have been a guessing game. I think knowing from the beginning is important.
-
Oh no DR Vixmom.
-
Happy Anniversary to DR Kate.
-
DR vixmom: Oy!!

Thank you for the reminder. I just put a hold on it at my library. There are 11 holds in front of me and only 1 book so it will be awhile. I now have all the hold permitted from the library on both my card and Keith's.
Did you receive the eBooks for the review challenge free of charge?
-
I AM complaining :(
I don't blame you. I know how much work it is to clean up water in a basement, or anywhere in the house when it floods every time it rains.
-
back to the saltmine.... or should I say bog
-
Bruce I had no idea fans weren't happy with season 3 of SHERLOCK. We are extremely pleased and agree with your comments on how the 2nd episode unraveled.
-
Sunday evening greetings from West 46th Street! We had a smooth train ride from Philadelphia and now I'm watching the Michigan/Kentucky game - Go, Blue!
-
The wedding last night was fabulous! Maybe someone who's on Facebook could post here the photos I'm sharing there, hmm?
-
We spent our pre-train time today at a casual brunch at the lovely home of the parents of the bride. Richard and I were so honored to be included in so many of the extra gatherings.
-
.... or should I say bog
CRANBERRIES!
-
Congratulations to DR Kate on her one year anniversary!

Glad it was wonderful, DR Ginny, and that you had/are having a wonderful time.
Here is our very own DR Ginny with the fabulous bride:

Thank you to DR Singdaw for posting my photos! Haven't figured how to post them here with just my iPad.

The e-books i review from netgalley or edelweiss are all free. The challenge does allow for e-books you've purchased yourself under $5. I think I may have had one 99 cent book.
-
DR Jane how many e-books are you allowed to put on hold?
-
Here are the five Palmer cousins, together for the first time since 2006!

Oh Crap. I made it to the Garden Show, but forgot the multi-cultural fair. Oh well
-
It was 74 degrees here today but very windy.
-
I did enjoy the garden show. Gave me some good ideas and I signed up with Earl May to have them come and give me an estimate on landscaping. I'm in desperate need of landscaping. I may contact a couple other nurseries too and see what they think.

A question for DR Chas or Jane or any other DR who has lived in many areas: Do you ever forget where you are? When I'm reading posts or the NYT or just odd times during the day I sometimes think I'm still living in the East and have to remind myself that I'm back in LA. Do other people do this, too?
-
I'm up - once again the thoughtless neighbors were out there at nine with whoever's baby it is - Cole seems to be the name of it. And again, they were out there just long enough to wake me up and keep me up for ten minutes, after which, as always, they disappear never to be heard from again.
I have some neighbors in the next building who go out on their balcony many evenings for a little party. They aren't out there long, maybe 20 minutes, but at midnight or 1 am it isn't appreciated by the likes of me. One of the women has a shrill, annoying voice. Ugh!
-
Just one more on the way to page 3:
I love chatter in the evening
I love chatter late at night

-
Bruce I had no idea fans weren't happy with season 3 of SHERLOCK. We are extremely pleased and agree with your comments on how the 2nd episode unraveled.
I'm a SHERLOCK fan who's been a bit disappointed in season 3. The show is so clever, IMO, and I can see where it'd be tough to keep it up. It'll be interesting to see what they do with season 4.
-
Well, the snow is back, albeit wet snow that doesn't stick.
Kevin, what's happening with the cherry blossoms? Is it too cold for blossoms?
-
I must have chased everyone away.
TTFN.
-
No, I'm just here reading.
-
But now, Jeanne is gone.
-
Love the wedding photos, Ginny. Excellent choice of dress, i agree.
-
Sorry, Ginny!
Yeah, thanks, DR TCB. As I told Richard, if they'd been playing anyone else I'd have been for Kentucky. Guess I'll keep my loyalty to the Big Ten and be for Wisconsin next weekend.
-
Thank you for all the nice comments. My dress was very comfortable.
-
DR Jane Six books does not seem like enough. Is there a limit on how many ebooks you can have out at once? I guess they feel like if you put holds on too many books then too many will come in at once. But the six only includes ebooks that your library already has and not books that have not come out yet?
Once an ebook becomes available do you immediately put holds on new ebooks?
-

When I'm reading posts or the NYT or just odd times during the day I sometimes think I'm still living in the East and have to remind myself that I'm back in LA. Do other people do this, too?
Having moved from Michigan to Connecticut and back to Michigan the rabbi asked Craig, during his Bar Mitzvah, if Craig knew what state he was in. ;D
I can't recall exactly forgetting what state I was in. You lived in one area a very long time. I can imagine that happening if we left Oregon after being here so long. I can still tell you where something was located several homes back yet have no idea where the item is here or sometimes if I still own it. That rarely happens anymore but it was always a big problem moving around. I still miss various stores in particular areas we lived in or being able to go someplace.
What you are describing is kind of like traveling when you forget what bed you are sleeping in and have to think about where you are. I'm sure I did that in the beginning of moves and had to think about where I was.

If there is a limit on the number of books I can check out I haven't reached it. There isn't a limit on the number in my wish list and often books there become available. My wish list is very long now.
I don't always rush to fill in the empty spot on the hold wish unless I am anxiously waiting to add something to it.

I went to high school with Andrea. She was a cheerleader and graduated a year before I did. Pretty wild
Oh my, you must be very proud of your schoolmate.
LOL, she is a dog breeder of King Charles Spaniels....
Well, one gender of dog did come to mind.

Back from a presentation of some Doris Day tribute show that's going on Crystal Cruise Line in a couple of months. The performer was at sea, due to lack of preparation (and why do this kind of evening if you're not prepared), but that wasn't the problem - bad title, bad structure, too much patter that's never in the right place and which has a LOT of repetition.

The family photos were great, Ginny. Thanks for sharing them.

Tagine party went well. We had three types and I ate way too much.

Six!

I love the Johnny Rocket's in Hoboken.
The other one I've been to, in Atlantic City, was a little less exciting, IIRC.
Johnny Rockets didn't make it here. There was one on the River Walk, but it didn't attract enough business, and one bite of the burgers could tell you why. There is one left in town, but it's part of an amusement park.
One of the cruise lines, possibly Royal Caribbean, has Johnny Rockets on all of their new ships.

Tell us your impressions, DR George!

Well, I ordered the Breakfast Burrito with bacon (you can get just about everything with bacon, sausage or steak), the A.M. Grilled Taco with bacon and the Sausage Flatbread Wrap, but I couldn't get the Breakfast Burrito because they ran out of eggs. They had enough for the A.M. Grilled Taco, and the Sausage Flatbread Wrap doesn't have eggs. Since I already paid, I got a regular Burrito Supreme from their lunch menu, instead. However, they also gave me a coupon for ANY burrito as an apology! Good enough for me! Next time, I'll get there earlier than 10:50 (they stop serving breakfast at 11:00).

As for the actual quality, the Sausage Flatbread Wrap was a little dry and didn't have much flavor (not bad, just too subtle). The A.M. Grilled Taco just had the bacon bits thrown in after it was warmed up and a lot fell out when I started to eat it. They should either be cooked in the taco, or something else needs to be added to hold them in without falling out. A swipe of sour cream would be good. I really like the concept of them. I like breakfast foods, and I like burrito foods, so I'll give them another chance. I will go earlier, though. That should make a difference...at least, as far as them running out of eggs. ;)

There was a Johnny Rockets at the Capitol Mall on the west side of Olympia. It, too, didn't last very long. You'd think that a restaurant in a mall right next to the movie theaters would be able to stay in business for more than a couple of years, but not this one. :-\
I only went a couple of times. I don't remember much about it, but I know that I didn't love it.

Just one more on the way to page 3:
I love chatter in the evening
I love chatter late at night
I love chatter that's at lunch time when it's sunny
I love chatter over dinner when it's funny
I love chatter in the morning
Every morning of the year
I love chatter, I tell you, Cole, that I love chatter
But please don't chat right here
Was I the only one hearing Darlene Edwards while I was reading it?

I did enjoy the garden show. Gave me some good ideas and I signed up with Earl May to have them come and give me an estimate on landscaping. I'm in desperate need of landscaping. I may contact a couple other nurseries too and see what they think.
Plant milkweed!!!

Good Morning ALL:

I want to say that I have enjoyed being a part of this unique Forum.
And this unique Forum enjoys part of you!!

The wedding last night was fabulous! Maybe someone who's on Facebook could post here the photos I'm sharing there, hmm?
We spent our pre-train time today at a casual brunch at the lovely home of the parents of the bride. Richard and I were so honored to be included in so many of the extra gatherings.
Congrats, Ginny! And great photos!

I love this Unique Forum. I like it miles better than the non-Unique Facebook forum :) Then again, we've been around a lot longer. Anyone remember something called MySpace?

I shall now share with you my favorite lyric from a Fred Rogers song.
[clears throat]
TREE, TREE, TREE,
TREE, TREE, TREE,
TREE, TREE, TREE,
TREE, TREE, TREE.
I LOVE YOU,
YES, I DO.
YES, I DO,
I LOVE YOU.

Possible Replies:
A) Fred must have been in his minimalist/Cage stage when he penned that ditty.
B) Gee, I guess that means his bark is worse than his bite.
