What no Seussical swag?

Jack: I haven't been able to find much of anything that's SEUSSICAL-related. We don't really have a whole lot of promo stuff - just CDs. Sorry... $:-\$

Jrand73 · « **Reply #153 on:** January 18, 2006, 12:56:00 PM »

That's okay! But after all you are THE SOURCE!

I bought a book that I thought was ABOUT the show, turned out to be a vocal selections book, but that's okay, too. People will be screaming for that before auditions!

Now I am going to watch a movie called Sinderella and the Golden Bra.

I've not caught up DR JRAnd but there was certainly a large article etc in one of the Show Music magazines re "Seusical". I still think the show should have won best score in its year -- IMHO way ahead of the enjoyable but not brilliant score for "The Producers"

More later. I'm not awake enough yet. 13 hour drive yesterday.

For MattH.... Have you ever done Brigadoon?

No, I haven't, but I love the show and have always wanted to play Jeff even though he doesn't have any songs of his own.

Enjoy your movie JRand55, and please forgive me

Matt H. · « **Reply #161 on:** January 18, 2006, 01:20:30 PM »

My lunch date went great, and we had a wonderful time talking movies. He's a big movie buff, loves classic films, and is a big fan of cheesy 50s sci-fi, so he'd fit right in here with DRs JRand and MBarnum among others.

He's coming over Saturday afternoon to watch a DVD or two. Looking forward to that!

Burt Mustin told a joke that made Johnny Carson laugh harder than I ever remember him laughing.

A guy was ice fishing and not catching anything. He moved down beside a small boy who had a large basket of fish. He asked the boy what his secret was....and the boy mumbled an answer. The man asked again, and again the boy mumbled. Finally the man said: "What is YOUR secret."

The boy spit out a mouthful of worms and said: "Keep your bait warm."

I remember that! That became one of my favorite jokes! I never knew that that man was Burt Mustin.

You learn something new everyday!

Once I got in, I started by finishing the CSI: MIAMI episode I started yesterday about pirating. The story turned out to be more about ethnic cleansing and was a nasty piece of goods all around - riveting drama.

Is he a buff movie buff?

Next switched to last night's LAW & ORDER: SPECIAL VICTIMS UNIT. A newborn baby was found thrown out with the garbage, and that was just the beginning of an eye-opening story concerning genius, madness, and incest. Among the guest stars was Zeljko Ivanek, a favorite actor of mine.

I'd say so. He's half an inch taller than I am and somewhat stockier in his upper torso.

Great pic, DR Tom!

Rodzinski · « **Reply #171 on:** January 18, 2006, 01:28:55 PM »

I'm interested in the Canadian answer as well. I once wrote a piece for a hockey publication, and it was about the first black man to play in the NHL (Willie O'Ree). A PC editrix changed it to "African-American" even though the guy was born and raised in Canada, so that change peeved me. But I don't know what the "right" answer is.

Next I watched THE SHIELD also from last night. A compelling cop serial that gets better with each passing season. IAB is hot on the trail of semi-dirty cop Vic Mackey, and now they're wiring a member of his strike team to try to get the goods on him.

DR Elmore: It's really of no concern to me. It's just one of those little trivia tidbits that is sometimes pondered. People is people. That's how I see it...I just found it to be an interesting question. Sorry if you were offended by my curiosity.

DRJason, I wasn't offended at all! I just got on my political soapbox again. I see DRvixmom turned tail and ran. I find it fascinating that there's such a need to exert this awareness among certan ethnicities. What about Native Americans or Asian Americans? What are they considered in Canada?

I have no idea if my ancestors were sent to this country through a desire to relocate or that great form of capital punishment, deportation, possibly even a form of slavery called indentured, but I, like probably everyone calling themselves Afro-American, was born here, and my family - just as most of theirs - has been here a long time. I don't think of myself as Euro-American or White American or Caucasian American. Now we'll see what a can of worms I've opened!

Great pictures, Tomovoz!!

Tomovoz · « **Reply #178 on:** January 18, 2006, 01:31:51 PM »

I would assume the Canadian answer to be African Americans. Canada is in America!! As is Mexico etc!!

There appears to be an assumption that the USA is America!!

Matt H. · « **Reply #179 on:** January 18, 2006, 01:32:28 PM »

Still have THE CLOSER from last night to watch. Since I may pass on the next night of AMERICAN IDOL auditions, 8 p.m. would be the perfect time to watch that leading right into a new LOST episode.
