Well, you've read the notes, the notes finished the vocals, and now it is time for you to post until the vocal cows come home.
-
And the word of the day is: PERICOPE!
-
Morning all.
That is all.
-
GOOD MORNING TO ALL!!!!

bk is a most busy bee these days. Lots of exciting things to look forward to. Love reading about it all.

Good morning, all! The apartment ghost drove me mad last night playing on the computer. I slept poorly, but I also had very weird dreams; the only one I remember involved the Royal Shakespeare Company doing my Appalachian show, only it was transferred to a poor Irish family and I recognized none of the music. At some point, i had to leave the production, and when I got back, my rooms had been assigned to Annalene Beechey and her family, and I could not locate anything in the apartment. I remember a bus ride with Annalene and her kids to a hospital and drain problems in the shower.
Around 8:30, I will leave for my barber and then head to Toyland.
-
Good morning, all.
Oy! One long crazy dream. Woke up feeling like a truck had run over me. Even though that isn't what happened in the dream.
-
How can it be Thursday already?
Coffee!
-
The site is really wonky this morning. Off and on, though. Off and on.
BTW, I only ever report such a thing when all other sites are fine, because I know the problem could be local to me.
-
And in other news, it already feels like a Benadryl day.
Eyes are itchy and my nose is going crazy. We'd had a drop in temperature overnight, so the air is "different". Supposed to be back to normal through the day, but some over-the-counter assistance is definitely called for.
-
I am ready far earlier than I wished to be, so I guess I will head downtown.
-
Very glad it's Thursday. It could be better and be Friday, but it's not.

Good Morning All:
TOD:
Red Roses, which I received from my wonderful Hubby for our 31th Wedding Anniversay on Sept 2!

Movies from the Library:
PANIC IN THE STREETS
DALLAS BUYERS CLUB
A YOUNG DOCTOR'S NOTEBOOK
HOLLYWOOD BEST CLASSIC MOVIES, WHICH INCLUDES:
ONE EYED JACKS
TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD
THE WILD RIDE
THE GREAT ST LOUIS BANK ROBERY
I really borrowed the above so I could watch TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD, which I have seen several times!
-
I would appreciate any comments on these movies!
-
I also picked up THE BRIDGES OF MADISON COUNTY for $1.00 from the library.
I did read it before, but would like to read it again!
-
Goodbye for now!!! :-* :-* :-*

TOD:
I do my own gardening (although not too well since I work full time), and continuously fuss over all my flowering plants. I love impatiens because they bloom even when they're planted in areas that get zero sunlight. I also love petunias, but they need lots of sun so that's where I plant them. I have a couple areas where I switch out the annuals twice a year, but I mostly try to plant perennials so they last longer. I also have about 30 different rose bushes, which all have such interesting names. My favorites are the "flaming peace", "snowfire", "George Burns", "topsy turvy", "purple tiger" and "oranges and lemons".
-
Greetings from Toyland! It was not easy getting here today. Traffic in this City can be ridiculous.
But I like my haircut.
-
Good morning, all.
-
TOD: I love irises and have ever since I was a kid. My old Kentucky home is surrounded by them in all sorts of colors, yellow, powdered blue, purple, bronze and black. The aroma is intoxicating to me.
I tried planting a type of iris in my backyard, but it was too cold for that variety, so they only lasted a couple of years. I haven't tried any others. I do have roses, salvia, morning glory, a Mexican love vine and esperanza in the yard as well as two crepe myrtle trees, which are covered with a lilac colored flower for about five or six months of the year.
My plumbago didn't survive the summer drought, and I need to plant some more. They're a particular favorite.
My friends grow zinnias and they've been giving me some of their great bounty lately. I may try those because they're so beautiful to have around.
-
From the old homestead:

SlapJack, thanks for the link of the CPAP cleaner. I'll watch that later. And yes, I hate to clean mine.

Vibes for DR ELMORE's wagon.
The Dream-O-Matic is in for maintenance, but I would just say to DR ELMORE and DR CHAS SMITH that sun moving toward Libra is very likely to present us with convoluted dreams that are more to be forgotten and remembered..... It will be much better after September 13, when more dreams of portent can be counted upon.
-
I made some calves' foot jelly for the play. But I don't know what it's supposed to look like, but I am sure someone here does.

We always had lots of wild flowers growing in the yard.....I liked daisies and naked ladies and zinnias.
Now I like mums and irises and hibiscus.....and coral bells....which is more of a plant than a flower.
-
Mum's the word!

DD Zach is at a "dog boarding/dog day care & hotel" facility today, being evaluated. I will go and pick him up in a few hours and find out if he can get along with all the other dogs. We have never had to board him in the 13 years we have had him, but there may be some occasions coming up where he'll need to go there for a day or two. They have webcams where you can see your dog in their individual kennel and interacting with all the other dogs in the large playrooms.
-
TWO!
-
Wow - HHW is really zippy this morning! :)
-
As comforting for you as it is, it is DD Zach who would benefit from being able to see and hear you on a daily basis when you're gone.
-
Today is Thursday in the everyday world. For me, it's my work week Friday.
I'm so glad I only had to work two days this week!
I'm totally ready to retire. Every fiber of my being screams out to me to retire.
But there remains that one little nagging voice inside my head that says, "No, No! Work. Accrue more time!"
We shall see.
-
SlapJack, thanks for the link of the CPAP cleaner. I'll watch that later. And yes, I hate to clean mine.
Ditto!

TOD:
As a kid I really liked Sweat Peas and poppies

TOD:
As a kid I really liked Sweat Peas and poppies
You mean Sweet Peas, I hope. Time to go home!
-
Favorite flowers:
Hollyhocks, Dahlias, Irises, hyacinths, crocus, daffodils, tulips, narcissus, Mister Lincoln rose, lupin, pansies, snapdragons, etc.
Wildflowers I loved: Queen Anne's lace.

No. Sweat Peas. They grow in the gym.

It's jello, right?
-
From foodterms.com:
Calf's foot jelly is:
An aspic made by boiling calves' feet until the natural gelatin is extracted. The liquid is strained, then combined with wine, lemon juice and spices and refrigerated until set. If sugar is added, it can be eaten as a dessert. Calf's-foot jelly was once thought to be a restorative for invalids.

It's not a jar of jelly, in other words, but a gelatin mold.
-
DTWO!
Don't you mean...
(http://i254.photobucket.com/albums/hh119/RonPulliam/Singdawisthismany.jpg)
But of course! :)
-
Other flowering things I love:
bougainvillea
morning glories
Angel's trumpet
wisteria
hibiscus
clematis
-
It's not a jar of jelly, in other words, but a gelatin mold.
And it ranks right up there with sweat peas, in my estimation.

Mister Lincoln rose.
Lovely, but looks more like a Mickey Mouse rose.
:D

How about sweet peas in a gelatin mold? Lime, perhaps. With tuna fish, rice, walnuts, celery and more? That was my favorite dish my mom ever made.

Wow, here is a harrowing story of a young, handsome gentleman who miraculously survived a massacre by that horrible ISIS group that killed all the others in his group.
Warning: The video interview is likely to get you choked up. They guy gets a bit emotional at times, naturally.

-
And home!
-
I'm up - was up at nine-thirty after almost eight hours of sleep. Had the telephonic call and will shortly go get something to eat - probably a cup of soup and a sandwich.
-
That is some interview DRMBARNUM!

I got this for my birthday from my friend Sabian who now runs a children's theater in Arizona.

-
The ragged door edges were caused by my father on his Jazzy.....
-
Great gift, JRand.
-
Thank you DR JOHN G.....I was looking at some pictures of the REAL stuff.....and it was pretty disgusting looking.....
Using pudding makes it easy to care for and it will last for the couple of weeks of the run without a lot ... or any ... care.
-
Joan Rivers was taken off life support this afternoon. CBS News just reported her death.

That is one neat gift, DR JRand64! It needs a button you can push to hear Ms Hayes sneer.

Wow, sorry to hear about Joan Rivers. Such a crazy person, but she brought us much (all kinds of much), and I will miss her presence.
-
This became a very crazy day, so my own presence is lacking. Back later tonight after rehearsal!
-
Looks like we are on the verge of a violent, dramatic storm. It's almost as dark as night here!
-
Back from picking up the DD from his "evaluation." He has been approved for boarding and/or daycare.
From what I can tell, they put him in the playroom with other, smaller dogs. Seeing as he is a senior citizen, it is probably smart that he is not in with all the big, high-energy critters. I did see him on the webcam - he mostly lay on the floor, while all the others did their thing around him. And he didn't seem too traumatized when I picked him up, so that is good.
-
HHW is now back to being quite sluggish.
-
How did they blow up DR Jrand64 to be 50 feet tall?
-
And now there is yet another book on the writing of Fiddler on the Roof!

Joan Rivers was taken off life support this afternoon. CBS News just reported her death.
Exactly as I said six days ago. I had been told definitively (and posted here) that she'd arrived at the hospital brain dead. That came right from someone who was at the hospital, but I wanted to make sure at that time everyone knew it was third-party information. The various press releases from her daughter, who most certainly knew what was what, were all very misleading. She was eventually called on it and had to finally admit that her mother was STILL on life support.
-
Congrats on the doggie approval!
-
Audio would indeed make the gift even more perfect DR ELMORE.
I am still the same size DR SINGDAW....it's the picture that got smaller.
-
Well last night I unleashed the complete BANJO onstage.....as per MR BK's suggestion. What took me so long? You may ask.
Well, since you asked, it completely bumfoozled my scene partner.....Sheridan Whiteside hizzeff....even though I had been giving him hints and working in the direction for a week.
The director wants me to keep everything I did....and I may go ahead and add the rest of it tonight......
No one else onstage at any particular time had a problem with it....and in fact went along on the ride with me....
-
I shall now be off to my last rehearsal of the week!
I am sharing a microphone with Professor Metz and Beverly Carlton.....since we are each on in just one scene.
Professor Metz dubbed it the Microphone of the Stars.
-
Oh, that's fantastic, DR Jrand64. Since your Whiteside is still learning his lines, it shouldn't make much difference. :)
-
DR John G. - the true story is that the dish Slang Jang was named after me. 8)
-
...and then there was the time we pulled a prank by filling his office cubicle with twinkies...
(http://i1282.photobucket.com/albums/a532/singdaw1/twinkies_zpsd4de43ca.png)
-
VIBES FOR DD ZACH!!!! I hope he is ok with the kennel. Have you looked into a pet sitter to stay at the house with him?
-
The ragged door edges were caused by my father on his Jazzy.....
;D
Nice gift.

Very good. The big test will be how he reacts when you take him back.

Century Link sent a letter for $5 off the next phone bill. All I had to do was call an 888 number, listen to the recorded message for 15 minutes, then talk to a live person and hear what they were selling. The guy sounded very sad when I declined. Thank goodness for the speaker phone and the internet to play on while I ignored the recorded messages.

Sorry to hear about Joan Rivers.

DR John G. - the true story is that the dish Slang Jang was named after me. 8)
Thank you, S.J.

Up from a nap. Now, off to make some Shrimp and Corn Pie for dinner.

I wish I had taken a nap.

So glad the CD will be released soon!

Sluggish time trying to post.

Well, I'm off to The Midnight Sun for the first night of the last weekend of "An Improbable Peck of Plays 3D."
I'm sure that it'll be a real nice crowd. :)
Until later.

Sluggish time trying to post.
Hmm. I've had absolutely no trouble today...for which I'm very grateful.

. Please please completely shut down your computer at night vixdad says they are not ghosts they are hackers
-
Another long day at the office did not get in until nine but didn't leave till after eight. And the documents that were eventually forwarded to me by miss clueless were entirely wrong so it was a complete waste of time
-
So since I did nothing but work today I am afraid I have nothing to report
-
I am sorry to hear about Joan rivers
-
I however feel a real personal loss over the death of robin Williams silly as that may seem,I never met the man and was unlikely to ever meet him. Although vixdad once ran into him in a store in NYC. But something about his work always touvpched me deeply.

I'm sorry your Miss Clueless caused you to work extra hours & wasted your time.

I'm supposed to be hosting the September pot luck lunch for my book group on Tuesday. I don't mind that the pot luck portion seems to have fallen apart but I do mind if there won't be enough people to discuss the book.
-
Have you looked into a pet sitter to stay at the house with him?
That would be ideal, DR Jane.
-
DR vixmom - I feel badly that you are now "paying" for having gone away. These two days have probably completely wiped out any relaxation you may have enjoyed.

Back, from a long and tiring rehearsal with, well, let me count them... oh, just two cast members absent tonight. The usual one (for reasons agreed to many weeks ago) and another one just to keep life interesting.
-
thanks all for the good thoughts
-
oh dear oh dear how will we evr get to page 5 ?

vixdad kindly brought me to ihop tonight where I had the 55+ breakfast sampler but substituted my hashbrowns for sauteed mushrooms and onions

Since I ran out of time to write my Christmas cards last year I think that perhaps I should start writing them out now

It is very nice to see you here, my dear.

I would appreciate any comments on these movies!
I wouldn't consider ONE EYED JACKS a classic, but that is probably just me.

I have plumbago, but the doctor said it might be too much red meat.
-
Show dates are November 15 and 16.
-
Had a fun second rehearsal - naturally more drama re the CD, but I sent an e-mail basically saying if anyone said anything I didn't care for from this point on that I would simply stop communicating with everyone and that my interviews for the CD will be very frank.
-
Went to Gelson's and got some snacks. Had a cup of chicken soup and a grilled cheese and bacon sandwich for lunch.
-
Site seems to be humming along this fine evening.
-
It's not a jar of jelly, in other words, but a gelatin mold.
And it ranks right up there with sweat peas, in my estimation.
How about sweet peas in a gelatin mold? Lime, perhaps. With tuna fish, rice, walnuts, celery and more? That was my favorite dish my mom ever made.
Your mother made sweet peas in gelatin? With tuna fish?

Once you have been touvpched by Robin Williams, you never forget it.
-
BK, I hope that someday you can explain what this whole mess has been about.
-
Well, I am very tired.
-
But I can certainly do this.
-
Just one more post.
-
Well, there have been two messes this year. This is the lesser one - not a mess, just dealing with people who don't really understand the record business.
-
Page six? Really?
-
This site is humming along, which is more than I can say for the WUSSBURGERS.
-
Page Six!
-
Is this still a personality conflict?
-
Well, I guess that would be the nice way of putting it. I believe certain people knowingly or unknowingly create drama where there need be none, who need a villain. It's all fine because the album will be announced and we can all go our merry way.
-

But the group won't be gathering for any holiday parties?
-
I will see how I'm feeling about doing any events for the album. Right now I have a splitting headache and part of the reason is these endless dramas. I think I may just forego reading any further e-mails from anyone connected with this.

Not anymore. :)

I was talking to someone today who said almost the same thing...that the loss of Robin Williams affected her much more than the loss of Joan Rivers.
