BK-my question would be, what is the best theatre restoration you have seen?

And what restored theatre has the most successful programming, in your opinion? The type that makes it a destination point, that would draw people from a large radius because it was unique, or it had some alluring identity?

The best movie theater restoration I've seen is, hands down, the El Capitan here in LA. Formerly one of my favorite movie theaters, the Paramount, by the late 70s it had fallen into a state of neglect by SRO Theaters. Then, Disney bought it, and completely restored it to the way it looked when it was first built and changed its name back to what it was when it was first built (I sort of wish they'd kept it the Paramount, but that's a different studio). It's spectacular.

Also, the theater where Lion King played, the New Amsterdam, I think - also a Disney restoration. Gorgeous.

My first question for ASK BK day... who are the most beautiful female celebrity and the handsomest male celebrity you have ever encountered?

I've met some real beauties, baby. And worked with a few, too. I'll start with last night's encounter - Eva Marie Saint who, even at her age, is still so beautiful. Of the people I've worked with I was entranced by the beauty of Patricia Neal, Susan Dey, Shirley Jones, Jean Simmons, etc. Tanya Roberts was very pretty, too.

And lest we forget - Miss Ann Margret!

All lovely choices, to be sure.

I'm up, I'm up. I've already talked to the local post office - they take no responsibility and say they do NOT scan delivery confirmation packages until the UPS Store people are THERE and they hand them those packages. The UPS Store has a different story, so I'm now going to a postal inspector. The time is nigh.

The sound clips for The Brain have been fixed (she imported them incorrectly) - you may have to empty your cache, but now no one should sound like they have a lisp when they're singing. There will also be more photos up later today. And you can now also see the lyrics as well as download them.

...Look for one from me later this evening. I don't like to do online shopping from my work computer.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #160 on:** January 31, 2007, 09:48:21 AM »

I was only following orders.

I once followed a tray of orders at a wedding. The pigs in a blanket were scrumptious.

Our local Jewish deli stopped serving blintzes, bolstering BK's theory that the blintz has fallen out of favor. I used to love them. Adrianna, it's kind of like a burrito filled with cottage cheese and fruit! Yummy!

It is a crepe made with milk, not water. The filling delicious filling contains cream cheese & farmers or hoop cheese flavored with vanilla, cinnamon and sugar.

I can't eat the ones made with cottage cheese.

Actually, I don't think anyone has commented on the audio clips, which now sound great - go listen again.

DakotaCelt · « **Reply #168 on:** January 31, 2007, 10:19:08 AM »

Arrgh, now I cant get ballroom blintz out of my head!

Adriana Patti · « **Reply #169 on:** January 31, 2007, 10:19:18 AM »

Good morning!

Happy Birthday DR Micheal Shayne!

I don't think I will be trying any cottage cheese burritos....

I have a whole list of errands around the lovely town of HOLLYWOOD to do, so I must get going before it starts to rain!

Edisauris-I hope the history of the theater is maintained. If the “colored only” entrance is torn town I would expect the lobby to have photos of the original entrance and stairway leading to the section. I would also expect a plaque to be placed outside the current entrance. I’m not sure why there is a debate since the original sign has already been removed. History should honor what was and show respect for those who were forced to use a separate section of the theater.

DakotaCelt · « **Reply #173 on:** January 31, 2007, 10:23:08 AM »

I did listen to the the clips and they are quite good.

DR elmore did an excellent job arranging and bk did a great job with the lyrics. They are fun tunes!

Congrats on 4000, DR Ben

Sorry Bruce, I will check it out later. I did listen to some nice clips before you mentioned they were there. I will see if something new is up since then. I do intend to order “The Brain”.

I’ve got to go now, Sherlock is waiting to play with a friend and then we are going for a hike.

Just when I thought things were going well at the office I get a phone call that someone complained because I worked at home one day and then the next day said I got a good deal at the store closing. Can you believe this crap. I went on my lunch hour and my time sheet reflected that. 2 people called my boss to complain about this.

I made some calls about office rents today, it's cheaper than I thought. I'm back on the opening in August plan

People - maybe Pick a Little Talk a Little was more truthful than we know.

And yet,.... I sense a stirring, an aura, a forcefield...... there just may be another Aquarian celebration here soon........yes, very soon.........

Yes.....the TIME IS NIGH! ......it isn't quite here yet, but it is definitely NIGH !!

More will probably be revealed in tomorrow's notes.

Hmm, I feel those stirrings also. All will be revealed tomorrow at 12:01 am (or whenever BK puts up those notes which is actually 3:01 am NY time).
