I had a terrible night of sleep, and I place the blame squarely on Miss Annabelle, who - instead of heading off to her chalet in the bookcases - decided to sleep on my pillow and cramp my sleeping style. At one point I had all three cats vyng for as much bedspace possible. By 5:30, Stella was gone, Annabelle had moved to a new pillow, and faithful Thatch stayed with me. I fially dragged myself out of bed around 6:30, but I would have liked an excuse to stay there for another hour or two.

Forgot to share a hilarious moment in The Mavericks concert the other night. Lead singer Paul Malo did three solo acoustic songs while the band took a break. A bat appeared somewhere in the theater and swooped several times toward the stage. He took it in stride and said, “If that bat flies into the balcony and turns into a guy, I’m outta here.”

I have never seen Heartburn OR When Harry Met Sally OR Sleepless In Seattle -

I have however seen The Goodbye Girl - the first time on network television.  I loved the movie - Quinn Cummings not so much - but all of the scenes that MR BK wrote about in the notes were so good....and the early scene when our leading lady is accosted by muggers and loses her purse and groceries was so realistically done - it was frightening.  And the visit to the dressing room was EVERYTHING.

As was the clueless director yelling:  "My mother LOVED it!"

I was leary of the musical version of The Goodbye Girl because - get the firing squad ready - I hate the performances of both Bernadette Peters AND Martin Short.....they set my tith on etch, as Ricky Ricardo would say.  :D

I did buy the Cast CD - but I do not think I have ever played it all the way through....

I only vaguely remember seeing The Goodbye Girl in a movie theater, and I remember virtually nothing of it. Isn't that awful? I'd say it's time to check that one out again. And I know nothing of the musical.

As for those other movies? Not a one! I've certainly seen clips, but I was never drawn to see any of them.

Marvin Hamlisch wrote a whole new score (except I think they kept one and a half songs) with a new lyricist and none of the new score was better...in my humble opinion (IMHO in Internet lingo).

It was horrifyingly bad. After Peters' first number, I said to my friend "I bet she's out for the second act. Her voice is shot." No, she stayed in the whole stinking show.

A good Sunday morning to all of you.

This morning is dark, gray and wet in Johnston SC, part of the CSRA above the "ridge line" of South Carolina.

We used to have a news thing called "The Ridge Citizen"....all the news about folks on the ridge.   My PaPa (my mom's dad) used to call it "the Ridge astonisher".  Lots of grip-and-grin photos (you know what those are, right?  Unnatural handshakes with bodies turned toward camera and big old toothy grins being displayed),

There is now an entity called "The Edgefield Advertiser" published once a week.  What sets it apart and makes it readable is its colorful letters to the editor section.  We have some remarkably "odd" people here, many of whom would put QAnon to shame and then some.

I slept so very, very well last night.  I cannot quite comprehend it.  I was in bed before midnight and I arose a mere 30 minutes ago. 

Were there dreams?  Why, yes.  Bless you for asking.

And were they repetitive dreams?

NO!  There were plenty of disparate, crazy, non-inimidating dreams, but none repeated.  I had a plethora of subject matter, including one seemingly indecent proposal that was really only a bid for companionship and a cuddle.

No, Jack...there will be no elucidation of that dream.

As I mentioned earlier, it is a gray, dark and wet day...and I could just as easily pop back under the covers and try to snooze some more.

But then I might miss the most important part of this day yet to come. Yes, the weekly Zoom chat looms high on the horizon.

Hello everyone....we have a very fun new Broadway Radio Show.  Douglas J. Cohen joins me to chat about his new book How To Survive A Killer Musical, a behind the scenes look a the making of the musical No Way To Treat A Lady (with a nice shout out to Bruce Kimmel for producing the cast recording, which has given the show an afterlife).  Then we move on to his latest work The Big Time, which has just released a cast recording with a wonderful group of performers including Santino Fontana, Debbie Gravitte, Will Swenson and Jackie Hoffman

Are the bagel stores closed for Rosh Hashanah or do you normally buy them in the markets?

I am conducting a little test. I purchased some plastic storage containers online last week. They came in a large box. We are supposed to put cardboard boxes in the recycling bin, but I am unable to hold the lid of the bin up with one hand and still get the large, broken down boxes into the bin with my remaining hand. I don’t have enough hands. I could wait until Tuesday and hope that the gardener is here at the same time I am, or I could ask Mr OCD for help. Instead I did what I used to do, which is to put the boxes next to the recycling bin and let the gardener take care of it, which is his job and he is happy to do. This worked fine for a couple years until Mr OCD had a conniption because the boxes weren’t IN the bin. We shall see how long it takes for him to bang on my door or put a notice on the bins that I hadn’t followed regulations or simply put them into the bins himself.

It’s “Marty”.  A robot that wanders about the store, supposedly to look for spills and hazards; but I believe it’s real purpose is to film shoplifters. The opposite side of Marty in covered with camera lenses.

MR OCD is simply rude.  He should be glad to help and put them in the container if it bothers him.  I am sure I was not the only person in my building that found it difficult to lift the lid.  As our container is in the garage, the lid is always left in the open position.
