Yesterday, I spent over 90 minutes on the phone with Apple Care trying unsuccessfully to remove some spyware from my Mac.  I can remove t via Malware, but when I restart my computer, it returns, and the Apple Support folk cannot find where this devil has taken rooty in my system to keep generating.  I am not happy.

ASK BK

Are there are more "holy grails" of soundtracks and cast recordings that have never been released or you would like to remix (a la Follies) that you would like to release on Kritzerland?


A holy grail for me would be Elmer Bernstein only Academy Award winning score for "Thoroughly Modern Millie" and with a complete song soundtrack: Looking at the World thru Rose Colored Glasses, Ah! Sweet Mystery of Life, and some other traditional trackswhich are very brief but would be nice to have. Also the title track is different in the movie than it is on the released version.

The only Bernstein music I could ever find was on a compliation was the scene with the biplanes on the way to Muzzy's mansion.

I have no idea what it's doing because I keep deleting it. 

As long as the computer is running, it's deleted.  As soon as I restart, it regenerates and I have to remove it again.

I'm up, I'm up - ten hours of sleep.  Something is coming out of me - don't know if I'd call it a voice yet, but I'm making sounds at least.  Totally stuffed up and congested.  I'd go have more chicken soup but Jerry's is kept about fifty degrees and that's part of this - the AC in the theater is really blowy and I'm positive going from the theater to the hot air is part of this.

My car is in the shop today. And tomorrow. It turns out it did have a leak and needs a new fuel pump. I'd taken it yesterday to the independent mechanic I've been going to for several years now and we were planning for them to do the work. I then thought I'd better check the warranty. I doubted it'd still be covered, but I checked anyway. The warranty expired last March, but Audi has some sort of voluntary "recall" on the water pump and are taking care of it. I'd rather have the independent do the work, but it's an $800-900 job, so I'm letting Audi do it. I haven't had a lot of experience with Audi service, but I've come to loathe dealerships based on past experiences on other cars.

I'd rather have the independent do the work, but it's an $800-900 job, so I'm letting Audi do it. I haven't had a lot of experience with Audi service, but I've come to loathe dealerships based on past experiences on other cars.


The dealership should have had plenty of experience doing the recall work.  I hope it is done to your satisfaction and there aren't any hidden costs.

Bruce, Boiron's Chestal cough syrup with HONEY is highly recommended by me. There are many products with similar names, as DR Jane found out. Be sure to buy the adult one and the one with HONEY.

Even if I had purchased the correct one it is still an expectorant:
"Temporarily relieves cough due to minor throat and bronchial irritation as may occur with a cold.
Helps loosen phlegm (mucus) and thin bronchial secretions to make coughs more productive."


When it didn't work I knew, from years of experience, only codeine was going to stop my serious cough. Bryan, the ER doctor said he never prescribes codeine.  I can understand that, not knowing the patients or if they are just trying to get their fix.  When he mentioned this I did laugh at the large bottle my prescription was for.  I also found taking half the dose, and only at night, was the best way to use it.  I used the Boiron's during the day.

Larry, given that the elevator isn't working, is someone collecting trash or would that be too much to ask for?

Can the elevator be repaired?

The building management is accepting bids for a new elevator system, although I have no idea when the installation will begin.

My super is helping me get things to the basement.

Good and good.

Back from a cup of chicken soup and a bagel - thankfully it wasn't too cold in there as it's not quite as hot today outside.  I'm obviously in the phlegm breakup phase - huge amounts of guck coming out of my nose and throat - so I suppose that's a good thing.

A very good thing.  It can be pretty gross...but good. :D

;D Yes, gross but good.  I doubt then that you need a strong cough medicine with codeine.  Try the Boiron's.

Just had a fine laugh - I get these e-mails from NYMF touting whatever the newest new musical is.  This e-mail told me all about The Time Machine, a brand NEW musical.  Never mind that I both met its songwriter and received the demos for this NEW musical back in 1998 (he moved here in 2000 and I attended his dueling piano bars at Universal's City Walk) - so at what point is there truth in advertising?  At what point do you just admit, hey I have this twenty year-old musical and we're doing it?  It happened the year we were at NYMF - one of the highly touted shows had had its first production in the late 1970s!

My car is in the shop today. And tomorrow. It turns out it did have a leak and needs a new fuel pump. I'd taken it yesterday to the independent mechanic I've been going to for several years now and we were planning for them to do the work. I then thought I'd better check the warranty. I doubted it'd still be covered, but I checked anyway. The warranty expired last March, but Audi has some sort of voluntary "recall" on the water pump and are taking care of it. I'd rather have the independent do the work, but it's an $800-900 job, so I'm letting Audi do it. I haven't had a lot of experience with Audi service, but I've come to loathe dealerships based on past experiences on other cars.

I'm glad you were able to make use of the Boiron. I often use the approach of alternating products of the same type, especially pain relievers.

The pharmacist suggested I use it during the day for the expectorant.  The codeine has the same expectorant in it so I couldn't combine them.

right. You'd have too much of it. It was a pharmacist who first told me about this approach. It's safer.

Tonight's light fixture swapping too much longer than usual. :P The ceiling was painted after the original fixtures were put in, and before my sister bought the house, so the fixtures weren't as easy...but they got swapped.
