Post by: bk on April 02, 2021, 12:03:55 AM
Well, you've read the notes, the notes were 141% and began on a high C, and now it is time for you to post until the high C cows come home.

This morning I see my urologist who removed the tumor last year and see if I have prostate cancer.  I've been very nonchalant about the situation for the past two weeks, but I will confess that this morning I am scared. I know it's easily treatable, and I have several frienda who came through it fine and dandy; my friend Jason's dad survived state 4 prostatye cancer, and my pharmacists this week tol;d me it would be fine. Still, this morning I am frightened.

Last night I had to clean out Annabelle's nose, and it's a torturous process since she fights like mad, and I worry I will injure her by holding her down while she thrashes and fights. She was fine this morning and ate with the others, but she's pissed at me and staying as far away possible.

BK, I have those two Cinderella DVDs, and I need to watch them again.  Last night's Don Quixote was not a success, but it was nice to see a bit of my friend Martin in the extra features. For a 19th century ballet about the Man of La Mancha, he and Sancho are secondary characters to rthe lovew story of Kitri and Basilio. The wonderful Marianela Niñez is a fiery Kitri, but I'd rather see the musical again.

It's that time of year dept.

I have received three Facebook messages - with videos - from mothers who think their teen daughters would be perfect to play The Narrator in JOSEPH.

I always reply that I would certainly welcome them at auditions but that I really want someone older for the part.
Title: Re: 141% OR STARTING APRIL ON A HIGH NOTE - A HIGH C
Post by: Jrand73 on April 02, 2021, 08:04:17 AM
Of course these are kind of of kids who put "Narrator" under the character they are auditioning for and check the "No" box by the "Would you accept another role?"

Which is really a good thing because then when they are told they are in the ensemble - they don't have to quit.....which most of them do.....

Post by: elmore3003 on April 02, 2021, 08:17:00 AM
On a Gleason(?) scale of 1-10, with 10 being the worst, the pathology report of the biopsy says I am a 7.  My doctor said that if I did nothing, depending on how the cancer progresses with regular biopsy checks, I might have 10 years, but the cancer could spread to my lymph nodes and then to my bones. So, we will set up a conference with the Radiology Dept. pf Lenox Hill Hospital. where I had my surgery last year, and I will have most likely some form of radiation treatments.

145%!!! And close to passing 11K - so $12,500 is not so far-fetched now. Already deciding on the first of the added stuff - each addition, of course, ups the bill but that's why we keep going. Very exciting. Two of the four first edition plays went first thing this morning. If the other two go that will put us well on our way to the 12K. The good news is that the guy who's taken most of the scores and the first editions is in Burbank so I'll save all that postage and meet up with him somewhere.

Saw the Triton first editions, many of which were perks and still are. Already some have bids and it's just the first day - they'll all go for more than our perks and some will go for considerably more. Their timing is a little odd, if you ask me - he's very aware of our campaign and probably saw how quickly those moved.

I'm sure they don't exist for either film, actually, especially for Hans - Goldwyn doesn't seem to have kept any separate music stems for these films, only M&Es.

Some are reprints. Some are originals, if that matters to you.

I received an email today from AT&T saying that they couldn't process an automatic payment. I received a new debit card recently, so I knew the case. But I honestly thought it was a phishing email. At the top, "customerservice" was misspelled as one work. The CTA to correct the problem told me to "upadate" my information. And the header was the ungrammatical mess: "Hi John.,"

I wanted to cry.

  The White Christmas is also the Decca “original cast” of the soundtrack. Peggy Lee (unrecognizable) subs for Clooney while Trudy Stevens subs for Gloria Wood, who dubbed Vera-Ellen.

That gives me a headache.       8)

Yup. And an ulcer.

147%!!! Only one first edition grouping left out of the four posted late last night. We've crossed 11K and are heading to 12K. IF we get there, I do believe we'll get all the way to 12,500 and maybe even beyond.

DR Elmore, so sorry to hear your news. But, as others have pointed out, it's a very common condition and doctors have a good handle on how to treat it. Lots and lots of people come through it just fine.

MEGA VIBES to DR ELMORE!!

You should see US Bank's website. It's full of stuff like that. Their programmers simply don't check their work. When they ask what I think of the bank, I tell them. No one seems to be listening.

As far as I'm concerned, they don't KNOW their work. I don't mean the programming. They don't know any more about good literate instructions and prose than many many people today. And of course there's no one employed to check them.

DR Jeanne, would this be, say, east of La Cienega? Or maybe near Beverly Dr.?

DR Jane mentioned Motor Ave., but that's out west of there. I picture the more eastern parts getting seedy. (Sad to say.)

Triton is a company that sells Broadway posters. I've bought two in the past from them. So I'm on an email list.

Here's the link: https://broadwayposters.com/

Some are reprints. Some are originals, if that matters to you.

Thanks. Not looking for anything, but it'll be fun to browse it.

They have managers. Some managers choose not to get involved, not to oversee anything. "They're professionals." I was not that kind of manager. The work that came out of my group was something we could all be proud of.

Not far at all, just a few blocks.

I think of all of that as Bruce's nabe. Real estate agents would probably break it down into several different neighborhoods.

I used to walk to Beverly Hills or to Westwood Blvd.  Rarely did I walk as far as Robertson.  All the way to La Cienega was a car ride.  I really didn't know of many shops past Robertson.
