At work, we can't listen to MP3s and RealAudio streaming audio, so I couldn't listen to the clips for "The Creature Wasn't Nice." Now that I'm home (and have been for a few hours...and I've remembered), I can. :)

And now, I must take out my contact lenses, brush my teeth and go to bed. Have a good evening, Tom!

Goodnight George.

Good morning to myself.
No one here but us chickens.
I'm not listening to anything right now. I am about to go and do the obvious at 7:20am on Friday, March 23, 2007.
We will watch As Time Goes By this evening, now that Channel 21 (one of our local PBS outlets) has ended their fundraising and gone back to regular programming.
We are supposed to go out to New Jersey tomorrow for a "Cousins" get together. The Morelli clan cousins are very close and have spontaneous gatherings frequently. I'm a cousin-in-law so I'm allowed to be part of the party.
We saw Johnny Guitar last night. While the pre-show was a bit disorganized, watching the movie was a hoot. I had never seen it before. I saw the Off-Broadway musicalization (a mix of camp and musical and great fun) but never the film. Miss Crawford was in top form as ingenue Vienna (even though by that time she was around 49-50 years old) but she was beat in the overacting game by Miss Mercedes McCambridge. Between the two of them the scenery was in splinters. The print, a 35mm, was in decent shape also.
Alas, I must move on to the kitchen. I will return (a Douglas MacArthur reference).
P.S. Anthony's Drowsy Chaperone audition is this afternoon. Vibes would be appreciate. Thank you all.

Bye Jack.

once again i cannot plan anything for the weekend. i have guests for the weekend. but i will probably listen to the david shire cd in my car.

Because you're getting up early today to write. Remember? :)

A grateful thanks to all and sundry [we are our own clerisy!] for your kind words and warm welcome to HHW.

Good morning, all! DR TCB, what are you doing up so late or so early? You too, BK?
I have no plans beyond laundry and a trip to NYPL. I spent the afternoon looking at the new critical editions of RIGOLETTO, and Johann Strauss' DER ZIGEUNERBARON, DIE FLEDERMAUS, and EINE NACHT IN VENEDIG. I'd guess each volume of the Strauss operettas costs around $500, and they are beautiful! I want them all, especially ZIGEUNERBARON. Each volume contains an intro in German and English describing the editorial decisions for all the volumes, a history of the work, the full orchestra score, an appendix of revisions and alternate numbers, and the libretto, often several different ones - such as the Berlin and Viennese texts which often have major differences. I didn't know until yesterday, for instance, that Strauss wrote a different Czardas for the leading lady in a revival of FLEDERMAUS. I'm surprised no one's recorded it.
The RIGOLETTO costs around $350, and it's equally beautiful, but not as complex as some of the other Verdi editions because it wasn't subjected to rewrites/fullscale revisions like MACBETH or DON CARLOS. I hate being poor.
Next week I will look at the new Rossini edition and the new edition of Grieg's PEER GYNT.

Why am I up at 5:38 a.m?

DR Ben, be sure to tell Anthony that we'll take him for ice cream if he gets the Drowsy Chaperone tour and it comes here! That will certainly make him do an extra good audition!

For NYC area H/Ks - and others, perhaps, as well, although you'll need to check your local schedules - PBS/13 will be broadcasting the Met's new production of Tan Dun's The First Emperor on Thu 3/29 at 9:00 PM. And again Sat 3/31 at 3:00 AM.
The world-premiere broadcast of Chinese composer Tan Dun's epic opera features legendary tenor Placido Domingo as Emperor Qin, who built the Great Wall and gave China its name. Tan Dun's music is a fascinating mix of East and West, and this monumental production is staged by revered Chinese filmmaker Zhang Yimou (Raise the Red Lantern and House of Flying Daggers), with costumes by Oscar-winning designer Emi Wada (Kurosawa's Ran).

Yes, you (and others) were very generous in your vibe wishing earlier in the week for his audition for Shear Madness. Today is Drowsy Chaperone and Monday is a Rodgers and Hart revue in Connecticut.

That's the thing about work in "the biz" He hasn't had auditions for weeks and now he has three and more in the next couple of weeks. Unfortunately, we know he won't be going back to Mill Mountain Theatre in Roanoke, VA for this year's summer production of Big River (they have decided to cast locally instead of coming to New York for talent) so he needs to find other jobs.

DR elmore3003 - thanks very much for posting the Kathleen Battle article yesterday. Most interesting!
-
And the word of the day is: CLERISY!
Back when I was in high school, all the honor students took care of their acne problems with CLERISY.
-
Oh, I used that on my acne.
All right, you beat me to it.
-
Singdaw, if you go up to the top of the page, you will see links to various pages on the site. There is a feature here called The Broadway Radio Show hosted by Donald Feltham. It's a weekly show focused on theatre and sometimes film music. He has interviews and plays CDs, etc. This week's show is a "Putting it Together" show where he focuses on one show (Cabaret this week) and uses different recordings to play all the songs. It's a very nice way to hear different performers.
The show usually changes every Sunday so this week, March 25th, the show will be about The Brain from Planet X.
On top of this page click on Broadway Radio, or from the home page with the notes click on the microphone at the left side of the page. When you get to Broadway Radio Show click on the title under "This Week's Show" Real Player will open and the show will begin. Even on a high speed connection the lag between clips can sometimes be slow so be patient. The show will usually play in its entirety, it just takes some time between clips. It has to do with the server and configuration and all that technical stuff.
-
DR Ben [and others] - thanks for your patience with the new guy. I had somehow got the impression that Donald's radio broadcasts weren't happening any longer, or that there was some sort of technical problem.
I am glad to stand corrected! :)
-
And it's time to get ready for work. Already.
Le sigh.

DR elmore3003 - thanks very much for posting the Kathleen Battle article yesterday. Most interesting!
I tried to post an anecdote my late baritone friend William Parker told me, but I lost it when I tried to post it because I'd added Will's photo. I'm not even sure after so many years that I'm telling this accurately.
Will told me that Ms Battle and Ms Jessye Norman were in a European (London?) production of Nozze di Figaro and at the opening party someone read an article mentioning the "black American soprano Kathleen Battle." At which point Ms Battle began a tantrum about "it's always black American soprano!" She finally became so worked up and hostile that she left the party. At which point the wonderful black American soprano Jessye Norman said to the stunned crowd, "well, someone had to tell her."

DR elmore - Two things:
1) I've actually been looking at those new critical editions myself. The "dormant" vocal coach in me may end up purchasing one or two of them. And since I can get them through my old music store, I can can get them at a nice discount. Well, at least at a discount. So... Shall I investigate what the cost-cost would be for you? ;)
2) Dinner tonight?

Yes to both! When do we plan on EARNEST IN LOVE and DARK AT THE TOP OF THE STAIRS? I have to plan a trip to Ohio.

As for the Topic of the Day...
My iPod has been on "shuffle" this week while I've been on the subway. That's been about it.
-
Yes to both! When do we plan on EARNEST IN LOVE and DARK AT THE TOP OF THE STAIRS? I have to plan a trip to Ohio.
OK!
Well, I'll bring the flyers for both shows with me tonight, then we can go over schedules then.
Do you want to sup up in your 'hood, or do you want to venture downtown? -I'll be back at Chelsea from 3:00-6:00 today. Call you/call me.

If anyone's interested, here's the info on the Johann Strauss Edition. I want them al! And they could be very tasteful Christmas gifts for certain individuals who deserve them like, well, me, for instance!

At which point the wonderful black American soprano Jessye Norman said to the stunned crowd, "well, someone had to tell her."
Hee hee! ;D
A musician friend of mine once moonlighted as a waiter in an upscale restaurant near Chicago's Lyric Opera. One night, after a performance, Jessye came in with her entourage. My friend made a bet with a fellow waiter that before she left, he would get her to sing.
Word of the bet circulated among the staff, and soon, the waiter's station was piled high with cash, all betting against my friend's claim.
At the appropriate moment, he dashed to the kitchen, grabbed a spare pastry, stuck and candle in it, and delivered it - to an unsuspecting young couple seated unfortunately in just the right spot in the dining room. My friend then began "Happy Birthday", encouraging all seated nearby to join in. Jessye won my friend's wager by contributing a thrilling high note to cap the song off.

I meant to mention when DR Ben talked about Ant's audition for SHEAR MADNESS that the show had a nine month run here, the longest in the history of Charlotte theater.
The authors personalize the show for the area where it's being performed, so it get A LOT of local attention, and it also is a VERY funny show which leaves the audience feeling good and with goofy smiles on their faces when it's over.
And crossed fingers and toes for his auditions today, too!!

-

DR PennyO, the alternate Czardas is published in the appendix of the Strauss critical edition of FLEDERMAUS. There's a companion vocal score published, so it may be an appendix in that as well. Check the UCLA music library and see if they have the edition in reference.

Last night's "Ugly Betty":
SPOILER
The episode was extremely well done, I thought. Some terrific turns...especially between Mark and his mother...and Betty.
I was a bit put off by the twist involving Daniel and Alexis. Daniel seems to have simply wussed out. I had hopes for him, and now I'm disapppointed. I don't know if that was the show's intent or not.
Of course, the show has to develop in interesting and devious ways....so....Stay Tuned, I reckon.

Re: last night's UGLY BETTY.
I don't know, but i didn't love it as much as i've loved most of the other episodes. And i love Patti Lupone. But didn't love her last night.
I liked the parts with betty and marc. That was pretty funny. But i just didn't think the stuff with daniel and alexis was all that great.
Maybe i was distracted by doing other things. But i just wasn't as thrilled with this episode as most people here seem to have been.

We won't get to Slings and Arrows until sometime in May probably. We don't get Sundance on our cable so Anthony's mother is recording the episodes for us. When we do get them, though, we will have a marathon because I think it's only 6 or 7 episodes and they are almost over.

I'm intrigued...tell me more! :)

Yes, Anthony has left New York, moved to California, stopping off in Oregon to pick up a very large, young dog and has moved in with Cason. Heather has left Cason and moved to New York and is now living in Chelsea. 2 switches out of 4.
And it's not even April Fools Day yet.

Do you put a muzzle on Toby and Dylan when you walk them?

DR Ben, I don't use a muzzle with my Zach, but he's very friendly. And I don't live in NYC. I do know dog owners that use them, with dogs that are either somewhat aggressive and/or unpredictable with strangers. And, I suppose, people that are worried about the increased litigiousness of society today. But whether it's uncomfortable for the dog, I don't know.

Do you put a muzzle on Toby and Dylan when you walk them?
DR Ben, I'm not sure if it's the same thing or not, but my sister has been walking her dog using something called a "Gentle Leader", which is a heavy canvas strap that goes on like a muzzle. From what I understand, it's the latest trend in controlling your dog on lead without using a chain choker collar. Homer (my sister's dog) can't wait to put it on when he sees it because he knows it means that he's going OUT FOR A WALK!!! Once he's home, though, he can't wait to get the thing off.

Dear DR M(dashing & hunky)Barnum.....
Unfortunately, my dates to go to NYC have to remain the week starting on Monday June 25th. It dovetails right after an event I have to be at in Chicago.
Are you sure you can't come then?? Dinner at Joe Allen, treats at Serendipity, the sparkling Elmore, the saucy Jose, the suave and distinguished Fred & Skip,........
-
On my budget I just can't come that weekend...if I go earlier the plane ticket is only $234. If I go later the price doubles!
My orignal plan was to attend Monster Bash in Pittsburgh and then stop off in NY...but then the price triples not including hotel accommodations...I really need to watch my spending so I am cancelling my trip to Pittsburgh altogether.
However, I am still going to be in LA April 24 through the 29th...and seems to me we have a dinner date on one of those dates...do we not? And of course it would be quite fun to have you along on my trip to Little Tokyo and Bronson Canyon if you are free and willing.

This dog is wearing a head halter called a Gentle Leader. It is not a muzzle! It lets you guide your dog easily without putting pressure on her neck or throat. Dogs wearing Gentle Leaders can still bark, eat, drink, or do anything else they normally do.

DR Musicguy and DR Ginny, when were you both planning on being in NY?...
DR MBarnum - DH Richard and I have been planning to head to NYC from Washington, DC, on Thursday, June 28, and stay until Monday, July 2. That plan may have to be altered depending on
1) what Richard learns from the shoulder doctor he's seeing on Monday (vibes for no surgery, please!) and
2) whether or not my request to have the jury duty (for which I received the summons today) rescheduled does not interfere with those plans. The 2 weeks in May for which they now have me scheduled conflict with major work commitments, so I'm going to ask for a time period in July or August.

Hopeful vibes continue for the Lassners...
I just talked to Jane: Sherlock is finally going in for the shoulder surgery and, while they have him under, contrast x-rays. The doc is hoping to find the bones intact, which would mean no digging around inside, looking for fragments to remove.
The detailed pix of the elbows showed a slightly less-disastrous condition than expected which, however, cannot be corrected right now. The surgeon will open up both legs to see what's the story with those elbows, and then close 'em up. It may be - this would be the miracle - that, as this baby boy grows, the situation wouldn't be as bad as it looks right now. The best-case prognosis is that Sherlock will come up to as much as 90 percent of normal growth and movement, running, hiking, playing. Worst case is something I will not consider right now. HHW vibes for best-case, please!
More info as I get it.

That is difficult to say...most of these titles I have not seen..however, stuff from the early 70s are usually a good bet, campiness wise...and if you click on the picture of the dvd in the listing it will bring up more info...some have viewer ratings.
Here are some of the titles that I thought looked like fun...
this looks like a cute comedy....
(http://www.erosentertainment.com/erospromos/eros_us/Product/image_s/Joroo-Ka-Ghulam-s.jpg)
this one from 1960 has a wonderful cast....

And this one seemed heartwarming.....

I am FREE to take on the weekend!
Dinner party tomorrow night with gardener friends
Dinner party Sunday night with a filmmaker friend who is doing a doc on clergy in the military before she goes over to be emedded with troops in Iraq.
And much house cleaning so our cat sitter doesn't flee screaming from the house! (Where's Matt H when you need him?)
-
I do have this title...it is from the 1940s and I quite enjoyed it. A fun historical epic....

BTW, for any HHW gardeners, my gardening show is returning to HGTV every weekday morning at 8AM est. starting on Monday.
New episodes will air every Monday starting April 2, the rest of the week will be reruns, but recent ones.
The show is called "A Gardener's Diary":
http://www.hgtv.com/hgtv/shows_grd
It's not a how-to, but more like half hour documentaries about gardeners across the country.
-
...otherwise just click on various titles and a plot will be given and maybe you will find someting fun...my taste might not match yours..for instance I am not too crazy about 80s and 90s films, Bollywood or otherwise, but there might be some grand titles there.
Beware, there are a couple listed that do not have subtitles...so be sure to look for that. The end of the listings are compilations of musical scenes from various movies..those can be fun.
-
Of the upcoming episodes listed, I edited the ones showing on:
3/26
3/27*
3/29
3/30*
4/3*
4/4
4/9
The ones with astericks are particular favorites of mine.
The friends we're dining with on Saturday are the subjects of a show later in the season, where I got to take a few subtle digs at our city's anti-historic preservation attitude. Hehehe...
-
Well, I was hoping I could hold out and make my next post a huge announcement, but no such luck...
I haven't heard back from the Full Monty people - either saying I did/didn't get the job...so until then, I just waaaaaaaaait...
Yesterday was fun -- I did some background work on "The Office," though it just made me jealous -- I wanted to be ON "The Office" not working as an extra...
-
Hey, be sure to let us know which episode you will be an extra in!
I would love to work as an extra...only because I am a terrible actor...although I could play a mute role really we..
-
The episode is going to be the one right before the season finale --
The portion I might be seen in is where Jim and Andy go to a Scranton high school to save the account after Dunder-Mifflin sent a batch of paper to them with a watermark bearing a resemblance to two cartoon characters in compromising positions -- and while doing so Andy recognizes his "girlfriend" at the school...

One last one Singdaw and Edisaurus.....
KARZ has a lame plot, but one of the leads is a total hottie and the musical numbers are lots of fun...I get my dvd of it out quite often just to watch the big Busby Berkley-like number at the birthday party. It alone is worth the 99 cents plus postage.

Whelp, no news is good news I suppose.....(damn them, damn them all the hell for drawing this out...). At least you're really making them think about if they want that six-toed, three nippled guy or you....

DR Naomi Dingdaw -- Congrats on becoming a goddess up here on Cloud Nine. See me over to your right -- I'm the one waving ....wait, hold on, now I'm holding up the margarita (on the rocks with salt) as a toast to your fine goddessness. What color toga do you want? Let's see now... there's pink, green, white ... (lots of white .... no one here at HHW seems to like the white)... gold, blue, red and a few yellows and oranges. I took the last copper, so no more copper togas, sorry...

Just returned from the fish fry for which I contributed the pecan pie. The way it works is: you pay and go through the line for your dinner (2 kinds of fish, mac & cheese, green beans, french fries, hushpuppies, and the best cole slaw I've ever tasted) and dessert is at the end, $1 extra for a piece of pie or cake. Richard and I got our dinner and I glanced at the dessert table where my 6 slices of pecan pie had joined all the other items. By the time we finished our meal and returned to select our dessert (which I brought home for later), all the pecan pie was GONE! Richard selected banana creme and I chose turtle.
-
Oh look, DR Jorge has joined us. The last time I saw you, you were a little sleeping gnome under the hypnotic bk trance...glad you're back...and still in your glasses and red hat (it must be glued on cause it didn't move all night, not even when you fell asleep)...

Strange day at work today, with a leak coming from one of the freezer units, resulting in a puddle that stretched under the shelves to two aisled over.
And Cashier Laurie somehow jammed one of the coupon printers (but we're blaming assistant manager Robert - it's kinda like blaming Jose).
And there was a backlog at the deli department, resulting in a customer (male) having a supermarket version of road rage meltdown. Chill, dude, sheesh.
-
And what is it about frozen pizza, that when a customer is buying a frozen pizza there is this irresistable urge to put something else on top of the pizza box while it's on the belt before I can scan it at the register?
Laurie has noticed this happens, too.

And what is the fascination some customers have with $100 bills?
I had one guy today who ran up a bill of something like $110. So he hands me two hundred dollar bills. Uh, he didn't have anything smaller? Like, this somehow made him look more powerful?
They have pills to cure E. D. Some guys just haven't heard about them yet.
::)

Are they toasted sliced almonds on top of the whipped cream?
Never settle for anything less than toasted sliced almonds on top of the whipped cream.

Time to get dinner made.
Spaghetti, with smoked sausage in the sauce.
Which will hopefully make up for last night's chili, which was somehow bitter and simply wrong.
(Yes, I can screw up on occasion.)

I think my toga is white.
It will stay that way as long as you don't wash it with red underwear. Pink togas are so not right.

At least the news wasn't as horrible as it could have been.

No appreciative comments from DR George re the talents of song writer Randy Newman.. DR Edisauras will not be impressed. Are you still being checkmated by the Swedes?

This afternoon I went for a walk, and this is what I saw:

AARRGGHH!! (he said sheepishly) :-[ You caught me. When I came to work this morning, I forgot to put the CDs in my bag to bring to work. They're still sitting on my table at home...where I put them so that I wouldn't forget to bring them to work. Dopey me. ::)

No, you put the CDs in your bag when you realize that you want to take them to work!!! No waiting!
I've got a bag I take with me to work every day. It has the book I'm reading (always a cookbook or something about food) and my coat inside, and my nametag pinned on the outside.
And there's still enough room inside for whatever I bring home for making dinner that night!
Walt, our pharmacist, has the same kind of bag, uses it every day. But I think his wife does all the shopping.
-
No CDs in my bag. I get to listen to muzak. :P

The tomato sauce with sausage is burbleing.

Back from the meeting and shall now try to slog through two more pages.
Speaking of pages - Cilla, any info on my last question - I'll need that info for the next chapter. Thanks.
I don't know. I've done some checking, but I can't seem to find the answer.

I was hungry for scallops tonight. So, I went to the store and got some sea scallops that I wrapped in bacon, sprinkled with garlic pepper and broiled. They were mighty tasty!

While I was in the kitchen, getting the sauce to the burble stage, I had the TV tuned to the Food Network's "chefography" of Rachael Ray. She has been elevated somewhat in my view, because her favorite pet has been a girl pit bull named Boo. Anyone who realizes how sweet these dogs can be, given the chance, is given brownie points.

I just read HERE (http://www.playbill.com/news/article/106775.html) on Playbill.com that if you haven't gotten the currently-available "world premiere recording" of the off-Broadway production to Grey Gardens, GET IT NOW!! When the "original Broadway cast recording" becomes available in an exclusive internet sale on the PS Classics website starting March 27 (otherwise available everywhere on April 15), the first recording "will be replaced by the Broadway album, which the authors see as their definitive version of their work, PS Classics co-founder Tommy Krasker told Playbill.com. The first disc will, like the Beales, gracefully go out of print."
Just had to share. :)

"Extreme Body Make-Over" Day 5 - Personally, I am enjoying the plan so far. DP, however is it. Being the foodie he is, he can't eat the same thing more than once in a few days, so this is driving him nuts. He's been on the EBMO (Extreme Body Make Over in internet lingo) forums, and has picked up some recipes for sauces and such. Hopefully, that will help. I'm just grateful he's been doing most of the prep. It makes it easier. I walked today, which was great, hills and all. On this plan, I seem to have an abundance of energy, which is great. Shirts are feeling looser across the chest, I'm happy - for now (and only for now!)

DR ELMORE - I think Unsung Broadway was one of the first BK-Produced CD's I bought without knowing anything about it....and "New Words" is a special song that has wonderful meaning....and a beautiful arrangement.
When the occasion calls for it, I always do that song in sign language, and it never fails to bring down the house!!!
The arrangement gives me lots of time for improvisation. ;D

Re: Ugly Betty
[size=20]SPOILERAGE!!![/size]
While I appreciate the demands of plotting on a soap opera/telenovella like this, I am disappointed by the totally negative rejection by Mama Weiner of her son, Mark. Yes, it happens, but not nearly as often as supposed. It is the fear of the rejection that keeps so many men (and women) like Mark from being honest with their parents. I would have preferred Mama Weiner saying something like "I don't know what to say," and then leaving, than her outright rejection of her own son.
MySisterTheBitch used this fear of rejection to drive a wedge between my father and myself for years. When I finally got the nerve to talk honestly with him, he did not reject me, but accepted me for who I am.
And MySisterTheBitch is the family Democrat. Go figure.

Aaaand, this one has sliced almonds on top of the whipped cream.
Almonds are good, and great on many things, I'll grant you that, but I'd end up picking them off cause I do not like "stuff" (I was going to say nuts, but I knew you HHWers would have a field day with that...) in whipped cream, nor in my ice cream (now chocolate chips or candy bits in ice cream are another story...)..
Whipped cream is one of those culinary delights that needs no enchancement...

DR SWOODY,
I once had the unlikely problem of possessing a number of $100 bills. (How I got them is another story.) Actually, they can be harder to get rid of than you would think. Many places don't have enough cash to deal with them; many places don't want bills over $20. I learned through experience that a grocery store was the best place to use them.

DR MattH - Drive safely. -Are they doing an environmental staging of The Donkey Show like it was done here in NYC? If so, bring comfortable shoes, since you'll most likely be standing. A lot.
Yes, they did. The theater was turned into a disco hall, and since my friend was the choreographer, he told me this in advance. And naturally, since he knew I was going to be there, I got pulled into the show. All this was expected and not a surprise.
More about this "show" in a minute.

I don't wear a toga. I work at home.
DR Jose and I have had a delightful evening beginning with Indian food (eatcha heart out, Barnum!) at Sawat, and then a delightful performance of the 1960 musical ERNEST IN LOVE. This concert presentation was a delight, overall much better sung than the original off-Broadway cast, and the cast was quite wonderful: Lauren Molina, the Johanna from the recent SWEENEY TODD Revival, was wonderful as Gwendolyn, and Mr Nick Dalton was a delight as Algernon Moncrief. I had a great time hearing the score again, as well as the music that didn't make the original recording, and I enjoyed everyone's perfromance. It's quite a clever adaptation of one of my favorite comedies.

Okay, hainsies/kimlets drug addicts - I need to know what kind of drug, popular drug, would be given to someone who has had a huge tragedy - you know, to sedate and calm them down because they'd gone into a completely depressive state - is that Zanex? Lithium? There some flavor of the month drug whose name I can't remember that's like Zanex but isn't. Any help?

TOD: Jeepers Creepers

Before I left on my daylong excursion this afternoon, I did manage to find time to watch last night's SMALLVILLE.
I didn't really understand how Clark's skin could be broken and bloody since all the literature after SUperman I know had his skin impervious to everything unless he was significently weakened by kryptonite. That wasn't the case here. He was in a FIght CLub situation where he was getting beaten up and he was bloody and broken. (BTW, by the end of the episode, he didn't even have a bruise, much less any open wounds. Unless weeks had passed between the end of the fight and the end of the episode, that seemed strange too.)
The Lana/baby storyline was not been of much interest to me all season, so some of that got wrapped up though I can see that all is not what it seems.
But the producers are definitely writing and filming this toward their target audience: teens and early 20s males with the fight stuff, the two women having an almost lesbian encounter before swapping body kicks and other punches.

I'll have to check "Not Quite Ripe" - the auto-biography by Debra Byrne. Each chapter introduces a new drug. One of them will have to work here, I'm sure of it.

I also had time to watch ANDY BARKER, P.I. A new receptionist character was annoying, and while the show is rather whimsical and sweet-natured, it doesn't seem to have the dynamic comic thrust to make much of an impression.

Good Evening!
As DR elmore mentioned, we did indeed have a delightful evening. Good dinner at Swagat. Good theatre at Musicals Tonight. And good company.
*And since I felt like walking around for a bit, I went ahead and walked up to 96th Street then over to CPW to catch the C Train back uptown. -And, yes, I did make a stop at Cafe Lalo for a Pistachio Brownie. :)

THE DONKEY SHOW was abysmal, a slight bar tab show disguised as a piece of musical theater. The story of two couples with the womanizing men being left by their girl friends and then reunited by show's end, it couldn't have been lamer or more uninteresting to me. Community theater or not, there were a few people with considerable talent on that stage that was utterly wasted in this when a REAL show could have shown off their talent.
And if they had their heart set on doing a disco show, get the rights to SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER for goodness sake! At least that had a story.

I think my toga is white.
Was.
-
I bet he's not there.
;D
-
No, I think it must be one of the egg shell colored ones cause there are tons of white ones left in the toga room...actually it looks like the box of white has never been opened...still sealed with the plastic covering..
Umm.... He made it himself. There was an article in Martha Stewart Bollywood Living.
And as for that box of white togas... Well, it's labeled incorrectly. You'll find some more copper ones in there.
-
Well, no word from San Diego Musical Theatre still...
But then again, it took them 4 days to call me after the initial audition regarding the callback, so, if we're going off of precedence, then nothing is impossible yet.
In the meantime, I guess I'd better get ready to head out for work.

And if I'm remembering correctly, the show actually has Shakespearean roots.
-I was amazed that it ran as long as it did in NYC. And I was even more amazed that they had cast members who stayed with it for as long as they did. They were truly making next to nothing.

Maybe Musicguy and I don't have a dinner date after all seeing as how he totally ignored my California/NY related post earlier.

Some character NAMES from Shakespeare's A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM, but there all similarities end.

I just read that contrary to earlier reports, actress Emma Watson will appear as Hermione Granger in the last two HARRY POTTER films. So, the trio of actors who began the series will see it through to its conclusion. I'm glad about that.
-
Okay, hainsies/kimlets drug addicts - I need to know what kind of drug, popular drug, would be given to someone who has had a huge tragedy - you know, to sedate and calm them down because they'd gone into a completely depressive state - is that Zanex? Lithium? There some flavor of the month drug whose name I can't remember that's like Zanex but isn't. Any help?
Well, if you want to make it interesting, marijuana seems to making quite the comeback lately. :-\

Making plans for my post-tax season jaunt to Pittsburgh. Anyone here ever stay at the Omni William Penn Hotel there?
-
Darn it, Cason! We were hoping for a big announcement.
-
The laserdisc version of THE MUSIC LOVERS came in the mail today, so I was even more frustrated that I couldn't stay home and watch it tonight. Hopefully, I will get to it tomorrow. I haven't seen this in years and am looking forward to revisiting it.
-
Jose - Thanks so much for the cookies! I'm sitting here weighed down like a content hot-air balloon. And that's a good thing, IMHO - a very nice feeling.

Hi -
Okay, for bad news, it's really good news:
I just spoke to Jane - Sherlock came out of surgery very well. The surgeon was able to fix the shoulders, and the good news was that the bones had NOT shattered yet, no garbage to clean out, and the prognosis is not bad on the shoulders.
There were bone fragments in both elbows - those were removed, but the big problems with the joint can't be fixed right now, so keep your fingers x'd for the next go round.
Jane and Keith are very much more relaxed than they were this afternoon, and may even get some sleep tonight. They pick up the pupster boy tomorrow morning. He's been shaved here there and everywhere, and looks like he's been nibbled by rats... Now will come several tedious months of convalescence - during which a puppy isn't allowed to cavort and play...
Hold a space for miracles in your hearts, Hainsies!
-

Well, I've never stayed at that particular property, but I've always had wonderful experiences at Omni Hotels. And spending the few extra dollars to stay on the Club/Concierge floors is sooooo worth it - breakfast and afternoon cocktails and light hors d'ouevres plus some other amenities.
-
That's the best bad news we could hope for, PennyO.
-
HEALING AND MIRACLE VIBES FOR SHERLOCK~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Penny thanks for the updates. It's much better news than it could have been. Let's all hope that the good news continues.

Yup - I told them how kind and sweet everyone has been all day, holding the good vibes... they do feel it, and are so grateful.

Jose - Thanks so much for the cookies! I'm sitting here weighed down like a content hot-air balloon. And that's a good thing, IMHO - a very nice feeling.
You're very welcome. It was the least I could do. *And I love that new postcard with the cutaway views of the cookies - at actual size!
Which one was your favorite? Or are you still making your way through the box? ;)
-

DR PennyO - Thanks for passing on the wonderful news. I hope that Jane and Keith do get a good night's sleep tonight... and tomorrow night too.
-
Yup - me, too, honeyboy. I'm gonna go hit the rack, meself, now. Nitey nite, kidz.

It's only 11:20 on a non-school (work) night ;)

And yes, it is a lovely postcard!

I'll take the Oatmeal Raisin and Chocolate Chocolate chip, please :)

That really is one pretty tasty Oatmeal Raisin Cookie. It's my favorite one in NYC - at least my favorite so far, but I think that one's going to be very hard to beat. And heck, with oatmeal and raisins in it, it has to be healthy! *My previous favorite oatmeal raisin cookie are the ones from Amy's Breads - now a very honorable second.

Well, it's another full day for me tomorrow (and Sunday), so... Once again...

So, it looks like Xanax isn't what I'm looking for - of the others, Paxil, Prozac, and Ativan, which would produce a stupor-like state - you know, a floating kind of inability to focus.

I'm considering going to see Taylor Hicks tomorrow night at the Orpheum. There are still half-way decent seats available. Too bad I'm not in my new office yet, I could try to sneak in and watch the sound check before I bought a ticket

I took valium when I had my wisdom teeth pulled. Valium and novacaine. I watched him pound and chisel but I just didn't care...it was a very strange experience that I'll never forget

I also had time to watch ANDY BARKER, P.I. A new receptionist character was annoying, and while the show is rather whimsical and sweet-natured, it doesn't seem to have the dynamic comic thrust to make much of an impression.

I'm looking for something a little more "today" among the rich crowd - I like the names Ativan and Paxil, but if they don't produce that kind of floating inability to focus state then it doesn't work. I'll use Valium if I must but it seems so 80s to me. And what about Prozac?
-
What about oxycontin...not sure if it produces that effect. That's what Rush Limbaugh and lots of other people are addicted to

4. Are there any activities that I should not perform while using OxyContin for pain relief?
OxyContin may interfere with your ability to do certain things that require your full attention. You should not drive a car, operate heavy machinery, or do other possibly dangerous activities while taking OxyContin.

Oh look, DR Jorge has joined us. The last time I saw you, you were a little sleeping gnome under the hypnotic bk trance...glad you're back...and still in your glasses and red hat (it must be glued on cause it didn't move all night, not even when you fell asleep)...
I so agree Karen, he looked adoreable!
-
bk, most anti-depressents will not be addictive or give the user any kind of otherworldly feeling. A pain killer might, however.
I would just call a local pharmacy and ask the pharmacist what kind of meds you are wanting to work into your story.

Try Ambien (http://sleepdisorders.about.com/od/medication/a/ambieneffects.htm)
It's the most popular drug for the treatment of insomnia, but it can have some strange side effects, especially if you don't take it properly,.
Drugs.com lists the following possible side effects:
• allergic reaction including difficulty breathing
• hallucinations
• abnormal behavior
• severe confusion
Other less serious side effects include headache, nausea, depression, muscle pain, vivid dreams, temporary amnesia, and others.
This is the drug Rep Patrick Kennedy was on when he was sleep-driving his car into the Capitol barricade.

I think oxycontin is a painkiller. It is in vogue with the young set at pharm parties (or used to be, anyway). I am not sure a doctor would prescribe it to calm someone down when they've had an emotional trauma. You'd get it for pain.
Antidepressants take a while to kick in. They wouldn't give you a high like you are looking for.
I think.

Quote from Goerge:
Did you (or anyone) happen to notice that when Jeff Goldblum was talking with someone, he would frequently glance away from the person's face at what looked to me to be a specific point?? All I could think about during most of the episode was that he's using cue cards!
Anyone who knows personally feel free to argue that I am incorrect, but I happen to "know" that Jeff Goldblum does nothing of the sort, and that the eye movements come from a rare style of acting called "thinking while acting". He is one of the few actors who I can see connecting thoughts and seemingly comes up with the lines as he says them, although he does indeed learn his lines.
