Well, you've read the notes, you've welcomed February with open arms, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're contemplating coming home during a little month we like to call February.

Interesting stats:  January 2006 was our fourth highest posting month - however, we were considerably behind last January (2005) when we had our highest posting month ever, with almost 1400 more posts than this January.

Good morning, all!  I had another night of strange dreams, something involving performance and music but it' all too vague now.

I did not watch the Dubya's speech last night; he and his crew are taling the term white supremacy to new heights, I detest their policies from the patriot act to the war in the Middle East, I'm unhappy over Alito's confirmation, and I feel that I and many others on this site are sitting ducks for one of this current regime's policies to find an excuse to lock us away or terminate us.  I know I'm being a bit melodramatic here, but this is a crew of evil personnel under the control of worse examples of humanity.

So, instead of listening to rationales for all the current evils in politics, I worked on various and sundry items:  The Golden Apple vocal book, Toyland, a chart for Ron Raines.  I have to finish my taxes, but I do detest giving my money to pay for a bunch of policies I neither support nor respect.  End of soapbox.

I saw JUNEBUG last autumn, and I liked it.  My goddaughter's godmother is in it, and I liked the cast a lot.  I found it a peculiar film, didn't understand the value of the artist's orgasmic work in anyone's collection, but there were moments in the family dynamics I both cringed and laughed over.

This morning I have a follow-up on my colonoscopy, then an afternoon at the NYPL Music and Theatre Collection.

TOD:  I currently have no questions and no answers.

DR's Donald and Kerry - Happy Happy Happy Happy Birthdays!! (that's 2 apiece...)

Another glorious day in LA. gosh I love it. I've been slowly moving into the loft in the Marina... it looks like Charles (the ex...) and I will be sharing it. We have agreed to be good room mates - at least until someone's old tapes begin playing... at which point we'll have a fine chat about it. And whoever wants to bring "company" home gives the other roomie some bit of time to skedaddle. We'll see...

And I have done 4 auditions, and another coming up on Monday. Looks like the ol' curse is broken. The Chuckster sang an audition yesterday - first one in more than 2 decades. Reinstated his Equity card, having taken an honorable withdrawal in 1974. He was a fraid this would happen!!! I bet he gets a gig before I do!!!

I'll be checkin' back in as the Birthday festivities get slammin'.

I just got an email from my third roommate, who is planning to move out *sometime* this month. She wanted to ask if it'd be OK for the new roommate, her replacement, to move in TONIGHT! Nothing like a little short notice to start your day. Maybe I'm a bit sensitive right now, but I think it's very inconsiderate to wait to the last minute to ask that....

Does that extend to how one should appropriately offer  well wishes to someone about to auditon for a part?

It sounds very calculated to me. Waiting until the last minute assumes you wouldn't have the heart to say no and leave someone stranded in the cold. Not a friend in my book.

She just emailed me again and said that he called last night and left her a message asking if he could move in tonight and that this is the first chance she's had to get to a computer to email me and the other roommate. Well here's a clue...pick up the f**king phone and CALL US! She's got both of our phone numbers. How hard would it have been to pick up the phone and call so that we could have at least cleaned up the apartment a little bit before he moves in? Or had time to clear out a shelf in the kitchen for him. Or just had time to get used to the idea that someone new was moving into our living space? This is yet another reason why I hate living with roommates. It's a good thing she's moving out... Of course, we still don't know when she's planning to DO that, but I'm guessing she'll let us know a few minutes before she starts packing up the truck.  ::)

Hmmmm....I am going shopping, so I will think of a question ...

In the meantime.....my interim question is:

What is your favorite Guy Group [not Guy Haines] and your favorite song they recorded.

I don't know if they really are considered a "guy group," but I love Cook, Dixon & Young (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000BCXZUE/qid=1138812392/sr=1-3/ref=sr_1_3/104-4173848-3336706?%5Fencoding=UTF8&v=glance&n=130) (formerly known as the Three Mo' Tenors (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00005QJHM/qid=1138812467/sr=1-5/ref=sr_1_5/104-4173848-3336706?s=dvd&v=glance&n=130))!  They now have two DVDs with corresponding CDs and are just fabulous!  I highly recommend them. ;D

I woke up this morning and I heard voices!  No really!  The problem was that at first, I thought that I was having a flashback to when I was living with my sister and she would would listen to morning news radio.  But no.  I listened, wondering where the sound was coming from.  It wasn't from outside, it was coming from inside my house!  I looked at my clock and it was blinking...ahh, there was a power outage, but why the heck was my TV on??  I went out into my living room and somehow, my TV got turned on by the power outage! (calling TCB!! ;)) That's never happened before.  After turning off the TV, I went back into my bedroom and noticed that my DVD player was on!  What the...??  So, I turned off the DVD player and reset my clocks.  Everything else seems normal, but you never know.  And that was my morning.  Now to the shower, then to work. :)

So far i've decided on a 7 layer dip (my sister requested that i bring that).

And i also found a really cute recipe for chocolate rice krispies treats. But they are in the shape of mini footballs, and you put white icing on the top so it looks just like a football. I think that will be cute.

But i'm still looking for other options.

Why don't I know who Joan Ryan is?  The Kritzerland Upcoming List sounds VERY interesting.

Like the Four Preps, The Four Aces, The Ames Brothers, The Mills Brothers, Smokey Robinson and The Miracles, The Kingston Trio,  and a few others.

Joan Ryan was in the original company of Together Again, the original LA company of Ruthless (and on the cast album I produced) and on a lot of the STAGE benefit albums.  Her album is very good.

DR Ben: No, it didn't work, but shutting down the computer about a half dozen times and restarting it finally got it back to normal. Once it was up and running, I realized I had forgotten to delete a very large video file (about 4 gigs) and I backed up about 450 .jpg files and deleted THEM, so I now have much more space on the hard drive and it's running just a little faster and smoother now.

My REAL question for ASK BK day:

What is the BEST and WORST fan letters you have ever received, and what made them so....

I've gotten so many wonderful letters over the years, both from the acting days and then the producing days.  I got one wonderful letter in the late 80s from a gal in Florida who was a huge fan of mine, especially from The Partridge Family.  She said while all the other little girls had crushes on David Cassidy, she had a crush on me.  Also, got a sweet Nudie fan letter from someone in Chicago who told me there was a John Smithee Fan Club there.  

I don't know that I've ever received a "worst" fan letter.  While at Varese I did get a couple of letters where people took exception to something or other, and I always wrote back and in the instances I'm remembering, won them over.

Overnight, I recorded the Biography episode on Carol Burnett. I was hoping there would be some footage from the first ONCE UPON A MATTRESS or JULIE AND CAROL AT CARNEGIE HALL (or LINCOLN CENTER), but no MATTRESS clips at all and a couple of seconds from CARNEGIE HALL.

The Biography stopped at Carol's return in MOON OVER BUFFALO, so the other career and life highs and lows since then weren't there, weren't updated. (The Biography on Angela Lansbury had been updated since the original aired including the death of husband Peter Shaw. This Carol episode had not been touched.)

I finished up my afternoon viewing with COURTING ALEX from Monday night. Perfectly pleasant people in a mundane sitcom. Nothing wrong with it other than just not being terribly funny to me.

However, it's scoring a bit higher ratings than my favorite OUT OF PRACTICE did in the time slot, so I'm not sure what that means for its fate.

I read that CBS had only ordered six episodes of ALEX, but now that it's done well enough in two airings, I wouldn't be surprised if they keep it on and plug OUT OF PRACTICE in somewhere else when it comes back in March (IF it comes back).

Philemon - "The Streets Of Antioch Stink"  and "I'd Do Almost Anything To Get Out Of Here and Go Home" may have reflected the audience response (48 performances).

I quite like the Cd.

Same here. On order but hasn't arrived. I'm not expecting it this week frankly. I guess I could pull out my LP, but it's mono.

Ken Mandelbaum said the CD sounds much better than the LP, but those MGM cast LPs never sounded great to my ears, especially CARNIVAL! They also seemed to get worn out/scratchy earlier than other discs. Of course, that might have been my fauly since I played THE FANTASTICKS, CARNIVAL!, SHE LOVES ME, and CHARLIE BROWN so much.

The Chinese Food Story:  My usual place, Bamboo Village, has not been so hot the last couple of times I've been there.  So, I toddled over to a place called Bamboo, next to the wonderful Cafe Bizou.  Now, this place has been recommended to me with great verve by several people - the best Chinese food in the Valley.  I ordered my usual cashew chicken and orange chicken and some white rice.  Couldn't wait to get home and try it.  I should have waited - the single worst Chinese food I've ever tasted - two bites of each dish and in the trash it went (and it was EXPENSIVE!) - totally flavorless, the chicken all soggy and fatty, and the orange chicken without a trace of orange in the flavor.  I put some butter on the rice and ate that.  I guess it's Genghis Cohen or Chinatown from now on.

I did not watch the Dubya's speech last night; he and his crew are taling the term white supremacy to new heights, I detest their policies from the patriot act to the war in the Middle East, I'm unhappy over Alito's confirmation, and I feel that I and many others on this site are sitting ducks for one of this current regime's policies to find an excuse to lock us away or terminate us.  I know I'm being a bit melodramatic here, but this is a crew of evil personnel under the control of worse examples of humanity.

I agree with you, Larry.  Just last Friday I was celebrating the fact that after 29 years, the Gay Rights Bill for citizens of Washington State was passed by our legislature.  However, before the governor had even signed the bill into law, our state's resident ballot petitioner has announced that will seek the necessary signatures to put a referendum to repeal this law before the voters next fall.  Since this gentleman has made a rather well-paid career out of gathering referendum signatures, I have no doubt that he will succeed in getting this measure on the ballot.  Although I think that this attempt at repealing the law will be defeated by the voters of Western Washington, we have the other half of this state that still lives in fear of the gay agenda!



I saw JUNEBUG last autumn, and I liked it.  My goddaughter's godmother is in it, and I liked the cast a lot.  .

Doesn't that make this woman your wife, Larry?

I woke up this morning and I heard voices!  No really!  The problem was that at first, I thought that I was having a flashback to when I was living with my sister and she would would listen to morning news radio.  But no.  I listened, wondering where the sound was coming from.  It wasn't from outside, it was coming from inside my house!  I looked at my clock and it was blinking...ahh, there was a power outage, but why the heck was my TV on??  I went out into my living room and somehow, my TV got turned on by the power outage! (calling TCB!! ;)) That's never happened before.  After turning off the TV, I went back into my bedroom and noticed that my DVD player was on!  What the...??  So, I turned off the DVD player and reset my clocks.  Everything else seems normal, but you never know.  And that was my morning.  Now to the shower, then to work. :)

I finished up my afternoon viewing with COURTING ALEX from Monday night. Perfectly pleasant people in a mundane sitcom. Nothing wrong with it other than just not being terribly funny to me.

I don't watch very many sitcoms right now because I don't find them funny. But I really like COURTING ALEX.  I think it is more of a woman's show though.

I think Jenna Elfman is really good.  And I like the chemistry between her and the bar owner.  I think it is a sitcom yet it almost has the potential to be part 1/2 hour drama to me.

I prefer this much more than CRUMBS (even though that show had a fantastic cast too). I just find ALEX to be a more relatable and interesting story.  ANd putting after TWO AND A HALF MEN insured that it would do well.

RE COURTING ALEX: I just find the writing very generic and the attraction very predictable (though they're both very attractive actors). Dabney Coleman's bluff and bluster is tedious to me and not at all funny. But it's doing well, and I'm sure CBS will order additional episodes of it. I suspect the next episode will be the last one I will watch. (I try to give new shows three chances to win me over before I do something else with the time.)

Horse racing, no doubt!

I saw today that a Cary Grant boxed set of DVDs is coming out next week. The box contains HOLIDAY which I really, really like and want. However, it's not being sold separately, and I already have several of the films contained in the box (THE AWFUL TRUTH, HIS GIRL FRIDAY). I don't know if they've remastered that awful transfer of THE AWFUL TRUTH, but HIS GIRL FRIDAY couldn't look any better.

So, I guess I'll have to pass on the box and make my own DVD of HOLIDAY the next time TCM shows it.

There was a group of "Close Up" kids tonight - about 200 of them - and they had to be the most unruly, misbehaving bunch of kids we've ever had.  They were talking to each other - from across the stage!  (We're in the round, so... they were mouthing things to each other.)  And then a bunch of them decided to sit in the boxes so they could be "cool", and also get a good nap in.  UGH!  *Close Up brings kids in from all over the place, and they plan a day or two of activities for them in DC.  In other words, the kids get "stuck" with whatever happens to be on the itinerary for them that day.  Nothing like having a bunch of "unwilling" audience members in those seats.

...And then there was the lady who apparently passed out during the first act.  Her friends had thought she had just fallen asleep, but then they noticed that she had some vomit on her chin... So...

Ah - Life in the Theatre!

RE: Chinese Food - I've usually found the cheaper the food (cost-wise), the better it is.  Thankfully, there are two "window service" places right near my apartment in NYC.  That's some good eatin'!

Before VCRs came in, a local theater in town would let us bring our ninth graders in and show them ROMEO AND JULIET after we had studied it. That was always an impossible field trip. Most didn't mind being away from school, but they didn't want to sit in a theater and watch Shakespeare. I was glad once VCRs came in that I could show excerpts to my class and not watch the whole thing. I encouraged them to rent it themselves if they wanted to see it all.

Yep, the fella and I are having lunch again at "our place."

I suspect many of you get up at 'normal hours'?

Just watched the LUCY SHOW episode where Lucy tries to get Jack Benny to put his money in the bank where she works...oh, my golly that is one of the funniest episodes of any show I have ever seen!

I even vaguely recall it from my childhood!

Not a huge Lucy fan but I have enjoyed a lot of her work....

DakotaCelt: What loverly pictures. I, too, am a photography enthusiast. I'm not very good, but I'm learning. :)

The new roommate installation in the Bratton Museum of Housing and Cohabitation is complete and I must say, so far things look good. He's a nice kid - only 23 - and seems to have a good head on his shoulders. He even managed to get the DVD player hooked up to the cable box so we can watch movies again.

Speaking of movies - NetFlix is starting to disappoint me. I've gotten two - count 'em, TWO - copies of Disney's "The Rescuers" and both of them have been cracked. TWO! These are not the first discs I've received from them that have been broken. Since moving into this apartment, I've received at least five discs that were either severely cracked or just totally broken in half. Methinks they may be getting too big for their breeches and quality control is going down the toilet. Still, they get the movies to me quickly and send out replacements faster than I can send the broken ones back, so I shouldn't complain...too much.

Tomorrow night I do believe my friend and I are going to see "TransAmerica." No, not the Greek. He and I are going to see the final invited dress rehearsal of  RING OF FIRE, the new Johnny Cash revusical, on Tuesday night and my coworker, Koji, and I will be seeing BAREFOOT IN THE PARK on Wednesday. Very exciting. In addition to all that hullabaloo, I'm going back to Boston on Friday for a weekend getaway with Julie. She's making me a comfort food feast for Friday night complete with casseroles and pie. Yum! :)

Oh... And the sink is now clear...  I have to say that may parents can really dirty up a bunch of dishes in a day's time.

;)

*And my dad made a Roast Leg of Lamb tonight for dinner... Which will be my lunch tomorrow.

Well, time for me to stretch a bit... I had another good run between shows, but as I've discovered, my body still is not used to be more limber - my hamstrings still have a tendency to "lock up".  So...

Goodnight.

Well, I need to go.  I wanted to scan some pictures but something's wrong with my scanner.  It probably had something to do with the power outage that I had this morning, but I'll need to disconnect things and restart my computer.  So, I'm doing the Wussburger thing.  Have a good evening, all! ;D

Power outages can do quite a number on scanners. I have had brownouts that killed mine...

bk,

I was chatting with a cousin of mine who is going to go to school in NYC next fall.

Her Mother is moving with her and she is HOH but loves theater and would love to see a play live. Do you know if theatres houses in NYC make accomodations for HOH?
