Well, you've read the notes, the notes had a very necessary haircut, and now it is time for you to post until the very necessary cows come home.

After I posted an item on FB yesterday about the murder by burglars of my first publicity client, actor Charles Wagenheim (FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT, GUNSMOKE, etal.), it dawned on me that, in my lifetime, I have known or met MANY people who were either murdered or had murdered somebody.

In addition to Charles, victims include actors Sal Mineo and Susan Cabot, screenwriter Robert Lees (ABBOTT & COSTELLO MEET FRANKENSTEIN) and a director/acting coach who, back in the mid-late 1960s, was shot by a student in his theater, located in Hollywood on Vine Street. He wasn't a client for long and, unfortunately, I can't recall his name. Anybody know this case?

On the other hand, killers I've met or known include Gig Young, who shot his wife, then himself, Christian Brando (just a young boy then) and my one-time neighbor, Eddie Cannizarro, who claimed to have shot "Bugsy" Siegel.

Makes me wonder if I'm a jinx or something.

At least one immigrant child has died, several have been sexually molested in the current concentration camps, some children in these places have lost parents to deportation and administrative incompetence, people with documentation to stay in this country are being rounded up and deported, and the Nazi wannabe keeps rallying his idiot white trash supporters.

 I just get the feeling that in live theater, the only people who will go to the  trouble of buying tickets and going to the revised play are people who already agree with the concept.  (On TV, it can be a different thing, I guess.)

DR FJL, the last production of the play on Broadway with Natalie Portman(?) was Wendy Kesselman's revised script. A high school production of the play was the first play I ever saw around 1958 or so.  i had just finished reading the diary and couldn't wait to see it.

As to your comment There is a MAJOR difference between detaining people who have entered the country illegally, then deporting them, and detaining 6 million Jews then murdering them, you are right. However, many people being deported have legal claims to be here and ICE is ignoring that; soldiers who fought for the USA were promised citizenship and our little Hitler wannabe and his ICE are deporting them. How do we not know Trump's Final Solution isn't already in place? Even Adolph started small.

I think it's brilliant in the Nazi-Fascist threat this country is currently under.  ICE is no more than Trump's Gestapo.

ICE is not sending people to concentration camps where they are gassed. :(

Not yet.

I don't know how to respond to that remark...so I won't.

At least one immigrant child has died, several have been sexually molested in the current concentration camps, some children in these places have lost parents to deportation and administrative incompetence, people with documentation to stay in this country are being rounded up and deported, and the Nazi wannabe keeps rallying his idiot white trash supporters. Welcome to Berlin 1930.

When you compare what is happening today with people who have entered the USA illegally to the six million who were murdered during the Holocaust, you s**t on their memory.

I don't think I do in the least; but if your sense of humanity only sees the current plight of ICE victims as those "who have entered the USA illegally" then God help you.

Please don't put words in my mouth or question my humanity.

To be real, the "production" is at a tiny crapbox theater of less than fifty seats and it plays twelve performances in Los Angeles - the creative team, such as it is, and the cast, such as it is, is, well, perhaps, less than stellar.  There are hundreds of these little things every year - sometimes they do this kind of thing to get noticed - the name of the production company should clue everyone in on who they are: Pop-Up Productions.  It seems rather silly to me to do this particular play about a real and very particular person with a Latino cast, but that's just me.  I don't think for a second that the Latino population would like it if Pop-Up Productions did a version of In the Heights with an all-white cast.

I don't think at this point in time it is possible to look at what's happening here and think it's good.  I think that is elmore's point and he is passionate about it.  Partisanship is a rather silly thing when it blinds to what can be clearly seen.

This is in the My Sister Eileen wiki:

In 1953, Joseph A. Fields and Jerome Chodorov adapted their 1940 play for Wonderful Town, with lyrics by Betty Comden and Adolph Green and music by Leonard Bernstein. Its success on Broadway prompted Harry Cohn, head of Columbia Pictures, which had released the 1942 screen adaptation of the play, to seek the film rights to the musical. When they proved to be too costly, he decided to hire Jule Styne and Leo Robin to write a different score. Because the film couldn't bear any resemblance to Wonderful Town, a studio attorney was assigned to make sure there were no similarities between the two. Even the musical numbers had to be positioned at different places in the storyline.

We had to do this for Bogie.  DR Ron was a pro at doing it for his cat and gave me lots of helpful tips.

The cat should be fine with it.   Keith put a hook in the cabinet over the washing machine to hang the liquid bag which made the process easier.

If the liquid squirts through the skin don't freak out.

Things went well at the winery today. I was asked to serve as the moderator. Lots of people said they were entertained -- and not just by the six glasses of wine in front of them.

I had dinner and started watching The Visit with Ingrid Bergman and Anthony Quinn.

We had a terrific stumble-through - a delight from start to finish.  We did our first Porter show exactly halfway back - our 45th show and it was one of the very few shows I was not that happy with for a variety of reasons.  We have righted all those reasons and this is the Porter show I'm happy with.  The cast is perfect, there were huge laughs, everyone was swooning over the romantic Porter classics, the version of My Heart Belongs to Daddy is, well, I'm not telling until it's done, and the new lyrics for You're the Top got great laughs.

Wish I were there. Sounds wonderful.

Finishing up The Visit. I can see what Fred Ebb saw in the material. But, boy, is this movie lousy despite Ingrid Bergman and Anthony Quinn. Everybody else seemed dubbed and their acting should have been dubbed in addition to their voices.

I did manage to get some part of the kitchen cleaned up. And I started listening to The Great Alone from Kristin Hannah in the process. I think this will be an interesting book.

DR CHAS SMITH did FDR get rolled off the stage during the rain, or did he have to get up from his wheelchair....

I asked him today since I had been frantically at work packing up my own things. No, sadly, he did not wait to be wheeled off. And he feels a bit bad about that. But they had to hustle, too, and in his words, "sorry, kids, the magic is over. We're outta here!"

He's a good FDR.

Well, I must be off.  I need to go into work for a little bit, then go to my sister's to help her daughter inject (yes, inject! :-\ ) fluids into one of her cats who's having some health issues.  She was shown how to do it by the vet so that she doesn't have to bring the cat in just for this (and pay for the office visit each time).  She needs to give the fluids every other day for a week or so.  After that, we're going to my parents' for our regular weekly family dinner and get-together.

Hope everyone is having a good day!

We had to do this for Bogie.  DR Ron was a pro at doing it for his cat and gave me lots of helpful tips.

The cat should be fine with it.   Keith put a hook in the cabinet over the washing machine to hang the liquid bag which made the process easier.

If the liquid squirts through the skin don't freak out. 

Good luck.

Thanks, Jane.  My sister actually has a hook in her kitchen ceiling, so that's where we tried to do it.  My niece was shown how to do it, but she can't seem to find the correct place to inject.  It didn't work tonight, so I'll go over there in the (late) morning and try again.

No, CASTAWAYS isn’t a great classic.  It is just fun in a RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK and JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH style of fun movie. Plus music!
