td: Vibes and prayers. If you want to hear stories about Home Health Aides, we had one for Joe (actually many over the course of ten years) and he finally decided he'd rather not spend the money.Thanks for the thoughts, fortunately though, I don't have to "hire in;" between the retired friends of my folks, my cousins and my personal friends, I have been able to create a monday thru friday schedule which filled up quickly.
Do you mean a recording or sheet music? If you mean recording, did you know that Bernadette Peters recorded it on her "Sondheim, Etc." CD when it was first released, but the song is no longer on the CD? Does anyone know why it was removed from the recording?Wow! I never knew that it had been removed! I guess buying it blindly on the day of release was a good thing.
Should a holiday serve to make people feel bad? Don't get me started on Yom Kipper...
Bernadette Peters: George, are you sure you don't have the Walmart version of the CD. Since Walmart is the largest single retailer of CDs in the U.S., many rock/pop groups record a separate sanitized version that meets their squeaky-clean standards.
I know a guy I dated last year was in a state of rapture when he found out SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES was being released on DVD. He really loved that film.
DR Noel - What a yom kipper?
I think it's a typo; it should be "yum kipper". It's what an appreciative Englishman says to his breakfast fare.

Love and Smooches to you all. I'm feeling giddy and wonderful today - I met my pianist yesterday, and he is superb!
SWW your son-in-law smokes. I hope not around the grandlads. Could that be the true cause of their “allergies”?I don't think so. They've been exposed to his smoking enough that they've probably built up a resistance to the smoke. (It's kind of like the advice that, if you're going to be in an area and know you're going to have pollen allergies, you should get some honey from that area to build up an immunity. Apparently, it works!)
The local public radio station is currently their self-produced show, "The Sound of Swing". This week's theme is very neat. They're playing Gershwin songs back to back. Well, first they're playing a classic and/or original vocal version of song, then following it with one - or two - swing/jazz/big band versions of the same song. I didn't know Kate Smith could swing! ;)
I had no idea (until yesterday's posts) that there was an alternate version of Bernadette's Sondheim, Etc without the wonderful "Making Love Alone." As a couple others have said, I guess it pays to have bought it within days of its release! :DAll right, here's something someone might want to check (and I would, but don't have the CD with me right now).
For Valentine's Day - which Hollywood couple shared this first kiss as man and wife? 8)

More likely, since it's the younger grandlad that had the problems and he went down into the basement, which is damp, he got exposed to some mold or something and was reacting to that. And their mother loves to panic over everything.
Sitting here wondering what to get my guy for the big V-day. We're going to a nice dinner, he hinted about bringing me a special dessert (he being the pastry chef and all) I'm thinking a lovely card and some Romantic type CD....
God knows, I love the guy, but he's not a playwright."Yes, the play was rather deadly (plays, actually -- two one-acters). And deadly Irish, which is even worse.
Gift update - I settled on a nice coffee table type book 1000 Chocolate Recipes. It's a lovely HUGE book.
Is it...could it be...Venetia Stevenson and Russ Tamblyn???
DR PennyO - I keep meaning to ask... And maybe you mentioned it earlier, but I somehow missed it...
Are you doing a residency at Bristol Riverside? Or did they just offer you two weeks in an Elysian setting complete with gym? -I wish I could make it up to see you show, but, hopefully, I'll make it to one of them sometime sooner or later.
And who is your pianist? What is his name?
Echo & I had a very nice visit with our friends at the nursing home. I also exposed myself to a violent intestinal virus. The clothes I was wearing went directly into the washing machine.
We have decided to go out for dinner tonight. Our first choice of restaurants had one opening left, unfortunately they have a special menu tonight which doesn’t include many vegetarian dishes. Our second choice is booked until 9:30. So we will just go into town and “wing” it.
If this isn't page 5, I'm going to go watch Angels in America.
Me starring in Chekov's The Nose.
Has anyone seen Wonderland? That's what I think I'll watch tonight - perfect Valentine movie, don't you think?
And DR TD was correct.
It was indeed Natalie Wood and RJ Wagner! ;D
JRand--It wasn't page 5 yet!!
But, pardon me, it WASN'T page 5! :D
Yes, once I got a correct response, I had to capitulate....although it is NOT Clifton Webb.Can you be positively sure? Did Clifton attend the wedding of his protege?
He was kind of a Nash rambler, wasn't he?
And I would still like to hear the complete score td. I have a feeling we have missed out on mcuh beauty.
BTW. I gave my sister a DVD of "AI" for Christmas. She has now watched it and loved it. Of course she as our sort of background!

April 6th just can't come soon enough for me. . .
..The metal diaphragm is sitting there exposed
...and just finished watching BUCK PRIVATES...
Yes ice it. I would do what you are doing. I gather the glass cutting board didn't cut you. I hope you have soft comfortable shoes to wear tomorrow.
No, no residency. I offered. Somehow it never came together - but the accommodations are wonderful, there is a salaried guy from the theater whose sole job is to keep the talent happy.
That's not Natalie Wood! That's Clifton Webb in a dress! :D
As for meeting in NYC, I may be up there Feb 29-March 2 to catch some friends in some shows and cabarets. Will you be leaving March 1? Or March 2?
