Sickie-poo. That's us.

Not very descriptive.

Head? Throat? Tummy? Further down and requiring an anti-diahreal?

Enquiring minds, that sort of thing.

And THAT brings us to the page three dance? Sheesh!

Trick is to do everything ACOUSTIC, in one of those superbly-designed European opera houses...

...and bypass the nitwits in the headphones, altogether.

And MY second day of school was just swell!!! I have three academic courses, which are led by wonderful, quirky professors. I think I'm gonna LOVE this!!! (even if I didn't exactly LOVE shelling out over $300 for textbooks...)

I am nostalgic for Autumn in Noo Yawk, as I read the posts of all DR's assembling there for community fun... I am wit' you , in spirit!

I hear you on the textbooks. They are rediculously expensive. One professor put 6 copies of a Microbiology text on reserve and the students are taking advantage of that. THat text costs $185.

Good luck with your classes and I hope you ace your classes DR PennyO!

Through work I can take one class free. I am finishing up my public history degree and have to take a capstone class where we do a major research paper. I am doing it on IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act) and its implementation in school districts in a rural state.

Talk about the NIMBY syndrome or Not next to my kid!

I had a high school chorus teacher who used to punch us in the stomach to get us to use our diaphrams for getting the notes....

PennyO, I am also with you on the headphones... You go girl!

Edisaurus, the Kritzer trilogy lays the foundation for so much of who BK is today, which is why I mentioned it. BK just said that more eloquently--and more modestly. The character of Benjamin Kritzer is still very alive in today's BK.

My question for Aks BK day:

What musical number from a Broadway show that NEVER made it into the film version is MOST missed....and how would you stage it?

Ask this question next week when my brain has returned.

Sound reinforcement for the stage is a fact of life - the artists do it in a subtle fashion - the B'way folks have made B'way all about them (sound design) and they are ruining the theater. I remember seeing the awful The Capeman and thinking they got it right - very subtle but very pleasing sound reinforcement. Then I found out that Simon had brought in his long-time engineer Roy Halee.

I'm probably going to bring Vinnie in for The Brain - just to give his two centimes.

Yes DREDISAURUS - that is true. I have only worked with "sound" people in the theatre and not on TV, Recording, or film - where things are probably MUCH different.

Using sound as an art and NOT an end in itself would be refreshing!

Is Donna M's book a memoir or a self help book or a book or pictures or what?

I am having a hard time finding the trilogy on HHW or Kritzerland...where is the best place to purchase said books?

DR Edisaurus, they're not on Kritzerland. Go to the HHW home page where Bruce's notes begin every day. You see where to click on the Kritzer books.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #85 on:** September 27, 2006, 10:54:58 AM »

If ordering through HHW, please let me know if the paypal account it's going to is kritzerland. It should be - when we originally did this it was a different paypal account that no longer exists - so, please be sure it's kritzerland. Otherwise, you can simply order the three books by going to paypal and putting in kritzerland@adelphia.net and then just add in the costs for the three books, plus only ONE shipping cost.

I could not agree more with you Jeanne. Wonderful imagery and writing.

A professor at a nearby school has his Writer's Block text on reserve for his writing class.

elmore, we wrap at ten tonight - we could meet at Joe Allen afterward, but I may not have much voice left, so you'll do most of the talking and I'll nod. If that's okay, just make a reservation for table 20 under my name and I'll meet you there. Just confirm with me here or via e-mail.
