Happy Happy Birthday, DR Ron Pulliam! Are you planning to do anything special today?

Back from a jog. I shall now sit on my couch like so much fish until I head over to Mr. Grant Geissman's home environment, which will be around four-thirty.

Good Morning From OZ.

We saw a local non-professional production of "Beauty & The Beast" on Friday night.

It's a cute show and the company did a good job given their limited resourses. Unfortunately "the Beast" was a let down as you did not feel for him. I think you really need that Act One closing song to "Touch" the audience.

Last night's viewing was "Candide" which is such fun. DP Colin's choice as he had been listening to the "new" CD I"d been playing in the morning.

Considering his recent surgery, i suspect Colin is only half-listening!

Help! I'm hitting 60 and my mind is crumbling! Do I want an "R" or "NC-17" version of a movie?

What's run away with my mind?

?

Okay, so I visited the dealer rooms at Cinecon, and there's always one guy who has tons of theater programs - I got a few. One that I got from some Long Beach Community Theater production of Bye Bye Birdie from 1963 was most interesting. I bought it because in this production, local girl Jennifer Warnes played Kim. Funny, huh? Albert and Rosie were played by Del Moore and Sherree North, and Momma was played by Lynn Bari, so they got some notables in the show. Now, more interestingly, in the chorus was a fifteen-year-old youngster named Drew Eshelman. Drew, of course, has played Thernardier hundreds of times in Les Miz, both on Broadway and on tour, and he appeared in our cast recording of After The Ball. BUTT - even more interestingly is another chorus member, who also served as rehearsal pianist - are you ready? The one and only - SKIP KENNON.

Personally, I'd go with the "NC-17." The "NC-17" version would be more explicit than the "R" rated version, which would have to have bits and pieces cut out to get the "R" rating. It's the new "X" (but it's not "XXX," which is of course, PORN).

BK - Who is this Skip person to whom you're referring?

Actually, Skip says Drew Echelman beat him out for the role of Harvey Johnson.

FJL · « **Reply #98 on:** September 02, 2006, 03:40:14 PM »

By Echelman, I mean, of course, Eshelman.

FJL · « **Reply #99 on:** September 02, 2006, 03:43:27 PM »

It's confirmed - it is indeed the same Skip Kennon.

Pictures, Bruce?

FJL · « **Reply #100 on:** September 02, 2006, 03:44:28 PM »

I'm on a Skip Kennon frenzy!

Story of my life, though.

George-I’m very happy you are getting the condo you wanted.

Thanks! I am too!

I went to work for a little bit (not to work, though) because on Wednesday, my realtor and I got together and filled out and signed all the forms (contracts) that I needed to and yesterday the seller signed everything and made a few changes. I went into work so that I could have the papers faxed to me (we're allowed to receive and to send faxes if they don't involve long distance phone charges), then I had to initial all the changes and sign a couple of other pages and then fax the pages with changes to the seller's agent. Originally, my agent (Sheryl, who is in Packwood today) was going to drive up to her office in Gig Harbor from Packwood, then drive back down here to Tumwater so that I could sign the papers, then drive all the way back to Gig Harbor then go back to Packwood. Because the pages could all be faxed and faxed back, Sheryl saved about nine hours of driving! I'm glad that it all worked out...because that means:

I'VE OFFICIALLY BOUGHT A CONDO!!

(dependent, of course, on an inspection of the premises and my finances.)

Cilla your bat story cracked me up. I hope I can get up there and see your house sometime. It's been a rough few days for sleep, didn't sleep Thursday night and got about 4 hours last night. Don't know what's wrong with me. Stuck at work now until 11, a zombie. Then finally a day off. You have no idea how boring weekends around here are, I can feel my brain melting!

I remember when Bob Newhart's show came on in the 1970's and the description in TV Guide was something like "Bob Newhart stars in this new series about a condominium owner who works as a psychiatrist in Chicago."

It was some big deal to be a condominium owner then, right? It struck me as very impressive at the time.

Congratulations, DR George! And thanks for the NC-17 help.

As to your condo, you should look for a film that Ben Bagley used to rave about on the back of his Revisited albums, "House Dick: He'll Inspect Your Premises."

FJL · « **Reply #108 on:** September 02, 2006, 03:53:10 PM »

My error, Bob Newhart played a psychologist, not a psychiatrist, of course.

bk · « **Reply #109 on:** September 02, 2006, 03:55:27 PM »

And here is the living proof of both Mr. Kennon and Mr. Eshelman.

bk · « **Reply #110 on:** September 02, 2006, 03:56:40 PM »

Mr. Kennon is four rows down, center picture (with the glasses), and Mr. Eshelman is three rows down, first picture.

bk · « **Reply #111 on:** September 02, 2006, 03:57:35 PM »

In the text on the right, you can read that this was Mr. Kennon's debut, and that he aspires to be a writer in the musical theatre.

"To Serve as a Composer is a cookbook!"

I was on trivia withdrawal today, but that find by BK more than made up for it.

Thanks, TCB and Elmore! Now, back to reality...I have to work on cleaning up my bedroom! My parents are coming over on Monday morning to help clean up the entire house (to get it ready for my sister to show it and hopefully sell it) and we're all going to just box up whatever is left. I need to go through my bedroom FIRST (which I've said before

, but now it HAS to be done. And I always work better with a deadline.

Later!

"Promising and authentic teenagers" - I think that's code for "we can get away with paying them bupkus."

Congratulations, DR George, on proceeding toward home ownership!
