Well, you've read the notes, the notes were a Valentine, and now it is time for you to post until the Valentine cows come home.
-
And the word of the day is: MOONSTRUCK!
-
Good morning, all!
-
I was awake at 4:45 for a bathroom break and cuddle with Thatch. I slept a bit more and decided to get up around 5:45.
-
I had weird dreams, the strangest being a trip to a performance of The Threepenny Opera with Judith Malina as Jenny and Stephen Macht as Macheath.
-
And Happy Valentine's Day! I never got any, so it's not really one of my "days."
I'll spend it with iTunes and the mess.
-
Happy Valentine's Day to all who celebrate!
-
So enjoyable to read the progress of the DRAT! THE CAT! rehearsals!
-
We've gotten hooked on the eight-episode first season of the CIA-based series THE RECRUIT.
-
Some of the wit amidst the violence is in questionable taste, and I hope the real CIA is nothing like this, but it's really beautifully plotted. for grabbing the attention.
-
The main drawback has been that the commercials during THE RECRUIT feel so randomly inserted, but at least those ads are short (usually just 15 to 30 seconds).
-
Good morning, all.
-
Horrible night of sleep. Recurring dreams of having to store stuff and not having enough place to store it.
-
I also couldn't breathe through clogged nostrils. It was not pleasant.

Sixteen years ago, on Feb. 14, 2009, John McGlinn's body was discovered when the police broke into his apartment. He had died from a heart attack severaldays earlier, but the actual time of death is unknown.
Since then, I doubt there's not a day that passes without my mentioning or thinking of John; I cataloged his estate, and until 2015 I worked in an office surrounded by his scores, books, orchestra parts, and manuscripts. There were days when I would swear his ghost was haunting the space.
I've said much ill about him and most likely will continue, and yet I owe much of my career to him. Until the Big Blowout of 2002, when he blamed Robert Kimball and me for his deserved removal from a project, we were friends. It was a strange friendship, because he had a stunted and extremely limited view of what friendship was. He probably considered mea better friend than I did him because negotiating John's megalomania, treachery, and manipulations were not always fun. For him, a good friend was someone on whose shoulder he could cry about his love life or allow him to talk about himself for hours. Occasionally the conversations were two-sided, like when he'd call and we'd start casting a concert or album together.
Still, in the 1980s, working on SHOWBOAT, the Danbury Concert, the Book of the Month Club, dealing with diva Kiri Te Kanawa, and sitting in the Carnegie Recital Hall and letting him know when the band was too loud are some of my most cherished memories. Thank you, John!
RIP, my friend and, sadly, my enemy. I will listen to one of your CDs today and mourn you. Maybe even miss you!

Larry, the split in how you feel about John McGlinn is nearly identical to my feelings about Julie Miller (former DR Julie, producer of our Last Starfighter musical at NYMF in 2007, and co-bookwriter starting in Feb. 2010 on that version of our Viva Max! book). Julie was delightful in all regards and a wonderful co-worker all the way up to Nov. 2010, then in Dec. 2010 her emails show she decided she was a co-worker only and any sense of friendship had gone completely out the window - but we stayed co-writers because I felt the co-writing we did together was great for the particular show we were working on.
I don't quite know what changed her so abruptly, but emails (and the dates on them) don't lie.
The only change in her circumstances that I see is that she became V.P.of MAC in Nov. 2010, just a few weeks before the abrupt change in her emails. In Nov. 2010, Julie and I had even gone together to the Ebb Foundation Award reception, the year Doug Cohen won the Ebb Award and I was one of the six finalists, and everything was still wonderful between us then. Then, beginning of Dec. 2010, it became different: Many of her emails after Nov.2010 don't even feel as if the person writing them was the same Julie I knew before the change. I suspect many of those emails after Nov. 2010 were drafted by lawyers before Julie sent them.
-
Julie (who is a very smart canny lawyer) had through the years become openly and vocally bothered by her share of the "Viva Max!" musical being one-sixth.
When the musical became book by me and Julie, and music and lyrics by Skip, Julie began to characterize the sharing as her getting one-sixth, while Skip and I got five-sixths. But it was just the way the math is on just about every musical, book gets one-third, music gets one-third, lyrics get one-third, and she and I were each half of the book's 1/3, or one-sixth.

Good morning, friends.

Happy Valentine's Day to those who celebrate.

Nope. When we told people were moving to Vancouver we could tell by their reactions if they thought we were going to B.C.
-
"Oh, it is beautiful there" or "I love Vancouver" meant they thought we going to B.C. ;D
-
When traveling people tend to ask where you are from. It is confusing when we say Vancouver and we have to explain which makes our response a bit long.
Next trip, we are going to simply say Vancouver without an explanation.

DR Freddie if I drove to the 2nd Vancouver (we were first) and left now, it would likely take 5.5 hours to get there from my address.
-
We know some Vancouver, WA travelers who say they are from Portland. But then they often get asked Maine or Oregon.

Fort Vancouver, which I would have suggested Skip explore had I know about it, is near us.
Fort Vancouver was established in 1825, before the city was incorporated.
-
Fort Vancouver was named after Captain George Vancouver, a British explorer and sea captain. The fort was built in 1824–1825 by the Hudson's Bay Company as a headquarters for their fur trade in the Pacific Northwest.
-
Vancouver, B.C. is also named for George Vancouver.

Keith & I don't really do anything for Valentine's Day anymore. Just being together is enough.
-
I expect we will have a video chat with a special little girl to watch her open our birthday gift.
-
I leave the Valentine's Day activities to my lovely housemates, but here's a regular Friday kind of TOD:
Last night I watched Brian De Palma's BLOW OUT (1981) - which always seems like it should be hyphenated, like BLOW-UP (1966), but I digress. I have a like-hate relationship with the earlier so-called "Hitchcockian" thrillers of his. There's a lot to like, but their similarities and certain things he can be guaranteed to indulge in eventually get to me and I can go a long time between viewings.
I like BLOW OUT more than some of the others. The Philadelphia setting is interesting, I like the piecing together of audio/video evidence (the basic idea being borrowed from BLOW-UP), and I think Travolta is great in it. I like Nancy Allen, but isn't she kind of the same character in all of these? Maybe not, but it sometimes feels that way. John Lithgow is a surprise (nowadays) as the bad guy. So it was good to see it, and good to watch De Palma's very sixties early experimental film MURDER A LA MOD (1968) that's included on the Criterion disc.
-
My question is about the end of the movie DR JOHN G so I'll wait until your get it all over with to ask.

It’s over. Ask away.

I finished up some stuff, so I'm about to put on a McGlinn CD (haven't decided which one yet) to listen to while I bring some order to the Music Room. I've actually wanted to hear some recordings of his lately, anyway, so time to get into it. I also need to fix up those turntables, because what I'd really like is to put on the Book of the Month Club album.

Exciting news from Criterion! These two films actually make up the complete novel Les Trois Mousquetaires of Alexandre Dumas

I don't know if this is real, but if so, something's got the soiled panties of the Fat Orange Felon in a bunch!

Spent the last ninety minutes getting everything ready to send to the publisher and getting everything to Doug for the flap copy and blurb on the back cover - he'll also do the pre-order page.

I tend to say Vancouver BC if I’m talking to people, and that’s the best shorthand because for me to explain where I really live is always going to be a big conversation.

Not complaining though. It’s good to have an instant conversation starter to lean on.

I was obsessed (Obsession!) with DePalma in my younger days. But never did see Murder a La Mod.
-
I tend to prefer his early, sloppier things now. Greetings; Hi, Mom!; Phantom of the Paradise… than when he became fully Hitchcock Junior.
-
There was a screening of Phantom of the Paradise somewhere recently. A girl I know attended and sat in the back near Paul Williams.

For some reason, when I was in a Helen-Reddy-songs parody period around 2008, it seemed the right thing to do was to send the songwriters the YouTube link where their email addresses were easily findable online. Paul Williams sent me such a lovely email back, saying he really liked the parody of "You and Me Against the World." It was really appreciated.

Off to see Talley’s Folly tonight. It’s been years
As if to back up that there was likely no New York topic that I didn't do a parody of, when I was doing a video every week. This was a tribute to the glorious Danny Burstein going from playing opposite Sally in FOLLIES to playing opposite Sally in TALLEY'S FOLLY. One of the lyrics I'd gotten Sondheim's OK to do.
This was SALLY TALLEY's FOLLIES - "Story of Sally & Sally" - From FEB. 2013

I was not going to retest for covid today, however, Keith said we have lots of tests and why not see if the test line has gotten lighter.
The night before he tested negative you could barely see the T line. Thing is, he felt better and I don't.
Since we had plenty and they were expiring, I tested tonight. It only took one second, if that, for the T line to be obviously positive. It hadn't even reached the control line.
When I asked Keith where the extra test were he said there were five in the box. Nope, I used one of the two in the box.

I don't know if this is real, but if so, something's got the soiled panties of the Fat Orange Felon in a bunch!
It's a fraud!

Darn...but it's funny because Twitter and I think the Faceplace are no longer fact-checking. People can post funny stuff like this or not-so-funny disinformation and leOn and Zuck no longer care.

Good night, friends.

And others.

You have a pizza my heart.
Awwww!

Grant Garret's most iconic role?
I would say Rodzinski...in Naked Space or whatever you know it as....but I could be wrong.
We have a winner!

There was a screening of Phantom of the Paradise somewhere recently. A girl I know attended and sat in the back near Paul Williams.
For some reason, when I was in a Helen-Reddy-songs parody period around 2008, it seemed the right thing to do was to send the songwriters the YouTube link where their email addresses were easily findable online. Paul Williams sent me such a lovely email back, saying he really liked the parody of "You and Me Against the World." It was really appreciated.
He did a Q&A on some website back in the day and I was able to tell him how meaningful a song was to my cousin when she lost her son, and he said feedback like that is what he calls his “heart payments.”
-
Indian food was good. Record shop was nice. Was able to find a book a friend of mine wrote about Canadian Glam rock. And a couple records.
-
I tried watching several movies to no avail.
-
Then I tried watching no avail to no avail.
-
I sketched out the ballet thing - I know the ending and the beginning and the theft part and have ideas on how to get to each.
-
Had a small Marco's pizza thing for food.
-
Hadn't had one since mid-December.
-
Is page six the new page ten?
-
Feeling logy.
-
I have had a small headache most of the day - stress-related, I'm sure.
-
Ah, the page that shall not be named and yet has been named.

Howdy, Rupert!

I enjoyed the production. The only things I remember from the show, which I haven’t seen in 40 years, is a pair of ice skates and how wounded the two characters are. I would have loved seeing Danny Burstein in the role of Matt.
-
I am running a slight temperature. The cedar pollen really has made me sick.
-
Found a movie I want to watch, but it was too late to begin it. I'll shower now, write notes, post notes, then sleep.

Off to see Talley’s Folly tonight. It’s been years
As if to back up that there was likely no New York topic that I didn't do a parody of, when I was doing a video every week. This was a tribute to the glorious Danny Burstein going from playing opposite Sally in FOLLIES to playing opposite Sally in TALLEY'S FOLLY. One of the lyrics I'd gotten Sondheim's OK to do.
This was SALLY TALLEY's FOLLIES - "Story of Sally & Sally" - From FEB. 2013

That was great, Freddie!

I was not going to retest for covid today, however, Keith said we have lots of tests and why not see if the test line has gotten lighter.
The night before he tested negative you could barely see the T line. Thing is, he felt better and I don't.
Since we had plenty and they were expiring, I tested tonight. It only took one second, if that, for the T line to be obviously positive. It hadn't even reached the control line.
When I asked Keith where the extra test were he said there were five in the box. Nope, I used one of the two in the box.
Noooooo!!!!!
-
The set.

Yum! It certainly looks better than the pizza I had tonight. ::)
-
What I had wasn't bad, per se. It was a frozen deep dish pepperoni and sausage pizza.
-
New notes are up.
-
Up are new notes.
-
I've seen them.
-
I've read them.
-
I wrote them.
-
I thought I cooked it according to the directions, but the crust ended up being really hard and not easily cuttable or chewable. ::)
-
It tasted okay, but just hard. The sauce and toppings were good, though, so it wasn't a total loss. :)
