I was just about to post this last night, so I saved it first...just in case:

First I saw HBO was as a kid on vacation in 1980 or so, watched Norma Rae on a hotel tv in Nebraska.

I remember watching The Harrad Experiment alone on my bedroom on my little black-and-white TV. ::)

"Cherry Ripe," an 18th century song, appears in a major way, in the first movement of Eric Coates' wonderful "London Suite."

It is also charmingly sung by the wonderful Elizabeth Harwood on this album, which was re-released as "Heart of Oak: Songs and Folksongs of the British Isles," one of my all-time favorite recordings. The orchestrations by Charles Mackerras and Ernest Tomlinson alone are worth the price of admission.

Even though I don't go to the theatre these days because of the walker, I wished the Camelot revival a lot of success. I think three things killed it for me - the director Bartlett Sher who has no gift for whimsy or comedy in my book, Aaron Sorkin's serious political viewpoint, and the "woke" attitude destroying revivals of period musicals. I was lucky to see the original 1960 production in its first national tour. I remember little about it now beyond the glorious scenery and costumes, but I've read the libretto several times, Lerner's revised libretto for London, and his unfortunate screenplay, which got some things right and blew others to hell. By the time of the screenplay, he had removed all magic from the show except for Nimue's enchantment of Merlin at the end of scene one. Given the fact that the show credits T.H. White's wonderful epic, as opposed to the public domain Mallory or Tennyson, little remained of White's Once and Future King, or the loads of magic in the book, beyond the rogram credit.

A lot of folk hate Morgan le Fey's comedy in Act Two, but I've always found it a hoot. It and "What Do the simple Folk Do?," which has been shortened in the new production, are the only moments of lightness in the second act before the tragedy of Arthur, Guenevere, and Lancelot speeds to its conclusion.

I shall have to try watching the clip later - sites like that are difficult for my computer to handle.....so many videos showing at once and things to click on and "x" out.

I think the comments are moderated - so all of our comments will have to be read and approved by the PTB at DEADLINE.

HA!  I was watching Planet of the Vampires last night, too.....on Screenpix.

The costumes with the high collars that hide the actors' faces look very uncomfortable.

And there is certainly a LOT of room to walk around in in the spaceship.....it's as big as a baseball diamond.

I've never watched it to the end - still - but maybe I'll give it another try.  It certainly beats Queen of Blood - except that movie has John Saxon.

Thank you.  I, too, am rather happy about it.  Hopeful it is all uphill from here.

I first saw "Planet of the Apes" in the summer of 1968.

I was working in a warehouse, and one of my summer student co-workers had seen it on its first night at the Carolina Theater in beautiful downtown Greenville SC.

She was utterly enthusiastic and resisted saying more than "You won't believe that last scene!!!"

Happily, I saw it on its first Saturday (matinee).  The next morning in Sunday School, the ending was being brayed by a couple of morons who enjoyed ruining things for others.

DR JohnG, how was the concert? Did the soprano break your heart in "Knoxville: Summer of 1915?"

The concert was very nice. This was the first time i had heard the New Philharmonic. Not quite the level of the old symphony.

The singer was excellent. I think Barber broke my heart.

I first heard Dawn Upshaw, then I got Eleanor Steber's recording since she commissioned the work. I have Price's recording, but I hate the Hermit Songs.

The Barber song that completely reduces me to tears is "Sure on this dhining night."

Planet of the Apes opened in - what, March or April of 1968? I'm almost positive I didn't see it until I was home for the summer from my first year at school... and where I saw it was at a drive-in, on a double bill with Fantastic Voyage which I had already seen several times the previous year. I believe I have the movie listing that matches up with that.

I loved it, but I didn't follow the movies back then. I may have seen one other one at a theeder, but I never really dived into the others until I had the DVDs and then Blu-rays. I also have the TV series on DVD but I don't think I've even watched it. I have no interest in the reboot(s).

Later, in the late ‘70s, Chicago’s ABC affiliate would have “Apes Week” as part of the after-school 3:30 Movie (before afternoon TV was all newsmagazines and court shows). I watched the first five movies on there. Diminishing returns by the time Paul Williams showed up as an ape. I never saw the TV show, but my sister did have a gigantic puzzle from it. Like 3x4 feet with giant pieces.

The remakes look like shit with worse fx, and I never watched them and never will.

Dropped some food off for FIL. He was sleeping and never knew I was there. Then to the hospital to check on MIL. Quite disconcerting. She’s such a proud woman, and hospital life just takes all of that away. Her pride also prevents her from telling nurses what’s wrong or asking for help. She can’t get out of bed by herself. Can’t see very well. Won’t eat. I don’t even know how we’ll get her home if they say she can leave. It’s bad.

This sounds very hard.  Do your in-laws have any help at home?  My father had someone who cared for him at home.  When he was in the hospital she went with him to make sure he received the care he needed.

We have a short bench here, as they say in sports. Nobody backing us up. We’ve been wanting to get them a helper or have them move to a safer place, but they never wanted to admit they had gotten to this point. They’ve been one fall away from this outcome for a couple years, and here we are. It’s why we moved here, to be close, and to help, but it’s now worse than we can handle.

Must write some notes. now. Today we found out that we're chosen for another festival, this one in LA, so that's fun.

Congrats, BK!

For her birthday present from me, she asked if I would buy her some lotion from eBay.

She bought this kind several years ago from some store, but they no longer carry the specific scents that she really likes.

Someone on eBay had some new bottles, and so I got her three bottles each of two different scents.

She came across them, and I got them for her a couple of months ago, so I didn't need to get her another gift for the party.

But I did get her something else, just to have something from me to open.

But my sister would like me to go to Costco before the party to (again) do some shopping.

I'll get her debit card first, go to Costco, then go back yo her hose before the party starts.
