I usually have some Loratadine on hand, a non-drowsy antihistamine that I believe has been called Allerest commercially (der Brucer will correct me if I'm wrong here, he always does).
And Times Square is usually an equal mix of native New Yorkers, workers and tourists
But I just GOT the cd last week, DRMATTH. Indiana, you know!
Some good ones are already there...but I think we can do better.
Anyway I had a lovely (and partially St. Patty's day green) Chili Relleno (SP?) burrito. Was going to have the tacos stuffed with beef tongue, but changed my mind.
DR Jose -- DW Joy lived many places as a child, but, more often than anywhere, she was in the DC area. Slums of Alexandria. When I first met her over the internet she was in a place called Scotland, Maryland. In 1997, she was in The Sound of Music at the Lazy Susan, which, I assume, you must know.
Maybe this link works better:

In both cases, the forum truncates the link, so you have to cut and paste it.
How did that smiley thingy get there on my THIN MAN selection? I did not put it there? I eschew smileys!
I mean to say, BACHELOR PARTY???? If I had to put any Tom Hanks film on the list (and he is NOT a favorite of mine), it would be The Money Pit...certainly not anything co-starring a woman named "Tawny."
Wow Der Brucer you are quite the internet researcher! LOL! We ate at the El Sol de Mexico! I was stuffed by the time I got out of there...they serve huge portions, and tasty too!
Anyway, do you think you were born a Republican, made a Republican by your parents or... oh, horror, recruited by Republicans who infiltrated the school system?
We really shouldn't pick on poor Tawny. she is the only one of the Stocking Triplets (Beige, Ecru, and Tawny) who made good.

But I loved what you wrote, Dan the Man, about ratm (the resurrected Gwen Verdon post here) and would like to reprint it there at some point.
DerBrucer: In re your article from the Agape Press: Agape is Greek for Love, is it not? C.S. Lewis's Four Loves are, I believe, Eros, Philia, Storge, and Agape, and the greatest of these is Agape (as in I Corinthians 13).
Isn't this just too, too! (only two toos becasue we included no images!)Dang, and I wanted too too images of tutus! Two tutus would be too too!
Thank you oh Techno God DerBrucer, always there in a pinch! My Dad's version was always, "I represent that remark!"On my side of the family, both of my parents were Republicans, as were my father's parents (his father was Coroner of Riverside County, not Orange).

It is my SISTER who was recruited by the Democrats! A well-educated woman, who teaches at the university level, she truly believes that Nixon was responsible for the war in Viet Nam. (She's also the only one in the family to ever get a divorce, and the family homophobe. Go figure.)
You are certainly welcome to, but I think it will only fall on deaf ears. What we really need to start posting there is a lot of good dead budgie jokes.Yes, but not too many. You wouldn't want to be accused of going over-budgie.
And we CAN discuss musical theatre here. Monday, the Drama Book Shop had LaChiusa, Guettel and Jason Robert Brown singing and chatting and one has to wonder who annointed these three. Not counting a staged song cycle, Adam Guettel has had two musicals produced. Brown's been responsible for three, I believe. LaChiusa's written many more, it's true, but many are only famous for having bombed.Guittel has noted himself that his output would be larger if he hadn't had so much trouble with his addictions. As it is, his Floyd Collins has been produced widely in regional theater, and it appears that Light in the Piazza will share in that production history. Similarly, Brown's Parade is better known for the touring production that the one staged in NYC; Songs for a New World again is a staple in regional theaters, and Last 5 Years looks to be following that route as well.
If the new generation of musical theatre writers is to be noted, let's note people who've done more work: I think the songwriters heard on BK's Broadway Bound are excellent (especially Markell & Bernstein), and prefer my friends Darryl Curry, Heisler & Goldrich, Jeanine Tesori and Sammy Buck to the omnipresent Brown, Guettel and LaChiusa.

DR PANNI, you can imagine my embarrassment.
Quick post between homework:
I have a friend who, for an english class, needs a song from a musical that has to do with someone who's crazy. Any ideas?
It isn't from a musical, but Joni Mitchell's "Twisted" otherwise fits the bill:
Love that song, but hate Joni Mitchell's version of it. Annie Ross did it better in the fifties.
Swishy Sarah - Try "Manic Depressives Don't Do Rewrites" from the Jule Styne-Bob Merrill never-made-it-to-Broadway Prettybelle. Angela Lansbury sang it.
And here it is, Thursday, and no one, other than Jane, has read a book entitled Kritzer Time. I think I shall be sad. I think I'll go eat some worms.bk - A watched poster never boils. It takes time to read a book properly. Do not eat worms. They will make your allergies worse. Besides, what are those of us, other than dear Jane, who have already read KT and vociferously praised it -- chopped liver? I think not.
I just adore the way DR RLP keeps getting younger and younger and younger
I didn't get any responses to my query about the Jacques Tati movies. Does no one like them, or have folks not seen them?
Has anyone in southern California had to go to Traffic School and tried any of the internet or home study courses. Any recommendations?
Someone please tell me what number we are celebrating...

Ten posts to go for a landmark BK! No doubt a few late night posers shall be there soon.
I watched all three hours of SCHINDLER'S LIST tonight, not on the recently released DVD but on my old reliable laserdisc which is really a sharp transfer with excellent surround sound (though the music sometimes overpowers the dialogue). Yep, wept when Schindler broke down near the end just as I have always done.
