Well, you've read the notes, the notes returned and weren't nice, and now it is time for you to post until the not nice cows come home.

It's going to be a very hot day in Manhattan.  I must go to market at some point, but my general; goal is to stay inside, tidy, work on my book a bit, and read a bit.  I took Kirk Douglas' book I Am Spartacus with me to my appointment and read the first three chapters while I waited.  I'm hooked.

Patrol was short.  Annabelle seemed uncertain that she wanted to patrol this morning, but while I stood there with the door open, she finally walked through it.  She's become very assertive about the elevator.  She walks right to it and wants to ride down to the first floor.  we saw no neighbors and no birds, so she became bored quickly, walked back to the elevator and demanded we go home. 

so we did.

That reminded me, that I'd seen the Woman of the Year mop dance with Bacall and the "cleaning ladies" on Tv variety shows, that it turned out to be a liftable number!!!  This clip is with Wayne Newton.

(the mops start about 2 minutes in; you somehow forget the 2 "cleaning ladies" are well-paid Broadway actresses.)

The SAE announcement seems to have confused people on the FSM board, who somehow have taken it to mean that SAE will donate it to some organization of film music society.  What a joke.  I'm not sure what about the word liquidate they don't understand, but they'll be selling the collection - tons of OOP stuff, tons of one-off rarities.  I was offered anything I wanted to take but that didn't feel right to me.  But the big estate thing, the Profiles in History auction comes in November.

Post by: John G. on July 19, 2019, 06:10:29 PM
They were different cuts and grades of meat.

First was a choice rib-eye, usually my favorite. And it was nicely marbled with a good, toothsome quality.

Then a choice New York strip cooked alongside an Akaushi New York strip. The first had wonderful flavor, then I tasted the Akaushi. It was velvet and practically melted on the tongue. I went back to the regular cut and all of a sudden this meat that was so good before now tasted coarse, difficult to chew and second rate.

The last was an Akaushi tenderloin, and it was so tender you really didn't need your teeth to eat it.

In Kritzerland, Benjamin goes on his first out of town trip, to St. Louis, in the summer of 1960, July to be exact.  When he gets back he goes to see Psycho at the El Rey Theater.  We now know that was on August 9th, the Wednesday it opened.  In St. Louis, he, as I did, sees the musical Rosalie at The Muny, something I've never forgotten, even the title tune which I can sing now without having heard it since.  So, I just Googled it and there it was - but what was surprising was who I saw in it - who knew?

July 25–31. Rosalie. Dorothy Collins, Bobby Van, Arthur Treacher.

I have no recall of what this was for, but I imagineered Disney recycling "Lion King" for when they do "Dumbo."

Re-using the tune of  “Circle of Life”

(chant)
Fly in Dumbo - with his ears he can fly
Flying Dumbo - see his ears make him fly

Come on fly him, when ya gonna fly him?
Come on fly him, when ya gonna fly him?
Come on fly him, when ya gonna fly him?
Come on fly him, when ya gonna fly him?

From the time we arrive at the venue
We’re glad not to sit through a plot
The kids don’t need scenes that should never be seen
No story and we say “So what?”

There’s may be a lot to take in here
But we’re here and we all know why
For now boredom is gone
The kids cheer Dumbo on
Yes, we’re watching an elephant fly

It’s the Circus of Life - yes, we’re all in thrall
The kids feel we're great - we bought their love
Dumbo finally flew
We all point in wonder
It’s the Circus, the Circus of Life

(maybe there was an article about a stage version of DUMBO?)

Still listening to music.  Got a batch of CDs in the mail today.  I did watch a couple of videos on the Tube of You

Perhaps the heat has affected everyone’s typing skills.

Or perhaps people prefer to use their AC, instead of their computers.

CATS, the movie appears to be everything the stage musical was.... and less.

I have no recall of what this was for, but I imagineered Disney recycling "Lion King" for when they do "Dumbo."

Re-using the tune of  “Circle of Life”

(chant)
Fly in Dumbo - with his ears he can fly
Flying Dumbo - see his ears make him fly

Come on fly him, when ya gonna fly him?
Come on fly him, when ya gonna fly him?
Come on fly him, when ya gonna fly him?
Come on fly him, when ya gonna fly him?

From the time we arrive at the venue
We’re glad not to sit through a plot
The kids don’t need scenes that should never be seen
No story and we say “So what?”

There’s may be a lot to take in here
But we’re here and we all know why
For now boredom is gone
The kids cheer Dumbo on
Yes, we’re watching an elephant fly

It’s the Circus of Life - yes, we’re all in thrall
The kids feel we're great - we bought their love
Dumbo finally flew
We all point in wonder
It’s the Circus, the Circus of Life

(maybe there was an article about a stage version of DUMBO?)

That's funny, Fred. ;D

Today at work, I received the Blu-ray to the 1999 London cast revival of Rodgers & Hammerstein's Oklahoma! (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06VSWVGQB), with pre-Wolverine Hugh Jackman, who (if I remember correctly) wasn't a big enough star at the time to transfer with the production to Broadway.
