Good morning, all! Two dreams last night, the first of which I cannot remember now, and a second in which I was appearing on Broadway in a production of LaBiche's ITALIAN STRAW HAT.

This morning, first thing, is laundry. When it's finishede, I will bathe and see my doctor for a follow-up from the ER visit. After that, I'm back here for more work on DEAREST ENEMY and ROBERTA. Yesterday, the Dublin boys sent me a suggestion for a young man in the cast that would be fantastic if we could get him. Fingers crossed.

DR Danise, I'm sorry about the job transfer, but we're lucky we have work these days. It will all work out.

BK, how was your friend in SPRING AWAKENING?

  DVD: two Netflix are arriving in today's mail, there are several operas sitting here as well
  CD: ONCE, several Irish groups, DEAREST ENEMY ootlegbays from Goodspeed and Villiage Light Opera, Guy Haines

I saw the original Spring Awakening on Broadway. Reminded me a little too much of the pain of having to read "The Sorrows of Young Werther" in college, as if being told by someone that I was supposed to like the show. I did like the Bill T. Jones choreography very much.

But what I remember best was seeing John Kander at intermission. The theater was across the street from where "Chicago" is playing, and he went to the sidewalk to see if he could check on the size of the audience that Sunday evening. (I think their show started an hour or so after ours.)

I also remember seeing Joan Rivers wrapped in mink and noting how grotesque her facelifts had made her look in person.

The woman who has the desk next to my new one is retiring today (I swear I had nothing to do with it). Her immediate goal is to do nothing but get up in the morning, sit out back of her house and read the paper.

Favorite line:  Claudius:  "What men won't do under the inspiration of their beliefs!"

On deck:  Tons of CDs need listening to.  Lots of BDs in a pile, including "Bite the Bullet" which is likely to be the next one I watch.

Enjoyed the new Filichia on Friday. "Pipe Dream" is such an oddity. I can't get into the cast album, no matter how hard I try and only enjoyed the libretto fitfully, as I recall. (I read it back in college.) But I'm wondering if a new book, one closer to Steinbeck's original, would work.

I was also a big fan of the Nick Nolte-Debra Winger movie.

I first listened to the OBC of SPRING AWAKENING on a car trip north to Tacoma, where I had been hired by THE SONDHEIM REVIEW to do a quick write up on a Tacoma Symphony Bernstein-Sondheim concert.  IIRC, I met Jed, Ann and Tom (but not George, I seem to think) at a sweet little downtown restaurant before the show.  George, were you there?  Maybe you were and I'm having Half-heimers.

Maybe y'all can help me with some detective work.  The car in which I rode to Columbus and back Wednesday had SiriusXM satellite radio and we listened to the Broadway channel the whole trip.  On the trip home, Seth Rudetsky was playing the whole cast album from an unfamiliar version of THE SOUND OF MUSIC.  We missed the intro and were home before it ended, so we didn't hear any of his commentary.  Maria was not Mary Martin, Julie Andrews, or Rebecca Luker, but she sounded almost child-like and had a very breathy voice.  The kids sounded very British and Suzy thought maybe it was an Australian cast.  Overall, it didn't sound to me like a very good production and I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas as to who the Maria might have been?

Is this in any way related to that "Miss Pettigrew" movie with Frances MacDormand? Or is it just the coincidence of using the same name.

Yesterday afternoon we decided to enjoy the glorious spring weather by taking the two new dogs to the beach and for a walk on the Boardwalk. The newbies had no problem getting in the car and enjoyed the ride. (As we exited the drive you could hear the howls of disappointment from the blondes  left behind.)

Both Moose and Zev enjoyed walking on the sand; Moose would have nothing to do with the surf, but Zev walked right up and stared at it - as each wave came in he backed up a few inches to keep his paws dry.

They both enjoyed meeting people and other dogs on the walk along the Boardwalk - Zev was the most surprising, he walked right up to strangers to meet them - the shyness seems to have disappeared. He met two bull terriers who got a bit snippy and Zev just backed up a foot and gave them a "How rude!" look - no return growls. Moose is still a lease tugger, but Zev just trots along without tugging.

We took a break at a boardwalk bench

Last night I went to a neighbor's house to discuss Major Pettigrew's Last Stand, which was a big hit with all of us.  We decided we'd cast Geoffrey Rush as the Major in a movie version.

Got home just in time for the UC/OSU basketball game, from which the Bearcats will NOT advance.  I hate to admit it, but Ohio State is a very good team.
Is this in any way related to that "Miss Pettigrew" movie with Frances MacDormand? Or is it just the coincidence of using the same name.

Coincidence.  Having seen the movie the name caught my eye when I saw the book & the reason I picked it up to check it out.  I'm so very glad I did.

Betsy: 4.5

Part of this is because Zach hasn't that many films made from books he's read.  Also, he has an issue with motion sickness, and the film is evidently full of that oh-so-popular jiggly handheld crap and it bothered him.

Yesterday afternoon we decided to enjoy the glorious spring weather by taking the two new dogs to the beach and for a walk on the Boardwalk. The newbies had no problem getting in the car and enjoyed the ride. (As we exited the drive you could hear the howls of disappointment from the blondes  left behind.)

Both Moose and Zev enjoyed walking on the sand; Moose would have nothing to do with the surf, but Zev walked right up and stared at it - as each wave came in he backed up a few inches to keep his paws dry.

They both enjoyed meeting people and other dogs on the walk along the Boardwalk - Zev was the most surprising, he walked right up to strangers to meet them - the shyness seems to have disappeared. He met two bull terriers who got a bit snippy and Zev just backed up a foot and gave them a "How rude!" look - no return growls. Moose is still a lease tugger, but Zev just trots along without tugging.

We took a break at a boardwalk bench

Maybe y'all can help me with some detective work.  The car in which I rode to Columbus and back Wednesday had SiriusXM satellite radio and we listened to the Broadway channel the whole trip.  On the trip home, Seth Rudetsky was playing the whole cast album from an unfamiliar version of THE SOUND OF MUSIC.  We missed the intro and were home before it ended, so we didn't hear any of his commentary.  Maria was not Mary Martin, Julie Andrews, or Rebecca Luker, but she sounded almost child-like and had a very breathy voice.  The kids sounded very British and Suzy thought maybe it was an Australian cast.  Overall, it didn't sound to me like a very good production and I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas as to who the Maria might have been?
It wasn't the Petula Clark recording, was it?

DR John G, I've just listened to some clips of that recording on iTunes and I don't think that's the one.

You can also search through castalbums.org (http://castalbums.org/shows/The-Sound-Of-Music/333)...there are 107 recordings!!

Michele Bachmann has a million dollar debt for running for president? I'd ask what kind of fool does that but I already know what kind of a fool she is! A Huge One!
Yes, but she has much more money than that, so it's a tax write-off.

Don't rain on my parade.

From Zack's reaction I think I would rather read HUNGER GAMES than see it.  Since I'm sure we will eventually watch the movie I'll skip the book then, at least until after I have seen the movie.
Dr Jane you must read the book. Interesting that you say you would wait to read the book till AFTER seeing the movie. Every other avid reader I know desperately wanted to read the book before seeing the movie. I would always rather read the book first.

I know, I'm somewhat strange that way.  When the book is better than the movie, which is usually the case, it doesn't take away from the book if I see the movie first.  The other way around can be more of a disappointment.  On the other hand, seeing the movie after reading the book I can fill Keith in on all the important bits that have been left out.

There are many books I simply don't want to revisit even though people rave about the film.  Sometimes when I know Keith will want to see the movie I skip the book. 

When do you plan to see the movie?  I'm curious what your reaction will be since you have read the book.

Jennifer:

Josh Hutcherson (Peeta) has had many leading roles in movies
Kicking & Screaming (2005), Zathura: A Space Adventure (2005), RV (2006), Bridge to Terabithia (2007), and Journey to the Center of the Earth (2008).The Kids Are All Right (2010), 

I expect he'll do a bang-up job in Hunger Games.

I know he has done other movies. But he physically does not look right for me. Peeta is such a vital role. Although many people i know who saw the movie said he was very good. I really hope so.

Sometimes, having seen the movie I can picture the actor in the book.  The other way around can be impossible.

If we were relly good parents, we'd take the blonds down today - with the temps in the mid-70s and a clear sky, the beach/boardwalk will probably be mobbed.

I have several small procedures upcoming and if they need me to be at the house for any reason, I have GOT to be there.  i don't know the if or when exactly so that's why I didn't want to go to HR.

I've never seen the show, but I deeply love a lot of the music.  Duncan's pop albums are gorgeous.  I perform some of his songs regularly at my gigs.

I had an onstage seat for the show on Broadway.  It was a cool experience and I'm glad I did it.  I liked a lot of the music but wasn't that keen on the show.  I have wanted to see it again from the audience.  I think I'd like it better from there.  I was a little more into the experience of being onstage and being a part of it than just watching the show

The News of the Day

The Bad News:  No sign of Danise's smart phone at my home.  Perhaps if the phone is really that smart, it will escape from UPS and find its own way to my house.

The Good News:  I have apparently been approved for Social Security Disability.  Well I have not received any kind of letter regarding this, I did receive a deposit into my checking account from them for what would be two months of Disability.  It could be Hush Money from Rick Santorum.

The Bad News:  I went to my pre-op appointment yesterday at St. Joseph's.  I completed my paperwork, my blood work was done and my EKG completed.  This afternoon I was notified that my EKG tends to indicate that I may have previously suffered a heart attack.  They are rushing me to see a cardiologist on Monday, but he will not have the results back until Monday 4/2/12 - the day before the scheduled surgery.
