DR Jeanne - Which part of the country do you live in again?


*And if you'd like to come to New York City right now, it's about 75-80 degrees in my apartment.  -Which reminds me of an episode of "Laverne & Shirley" - Shouldn't it be raining in the doorway?  -Or some line like that.

I'm in Virginia these days, JOSE--not that far from your Fairfax pad--in an 1820 house. Normally, I enjoy winter, but when there's a wind this house is COLD!

Big Time -- also from MACK & MABLE -- starts out slow, builds big
I Believe In You -- HOW TO SUCCEED
Hey There, Good Times -- I LOVE MY WIFE
The Other Side of the Tracks -- LITTLE ME

The great Duke Ellington vocalist, Al Hibbler, had a chart topper version in 1955!

OracleBandHarry Belafonte sang it at the 1956 Academy Awards.

My favorite is the Lettermen version of 1962

der Brucer



DER BRUCER, I bow to your greater age and experience. :)

Didn't know the Lettermen did it. I was a fan of theirs as a teenager.

Aren't you the one who was SOO excited because you were now going to have heat in your room?  Be careful what you ask for...you just might get it ;)

And, DER BRUCER, aren't you the one who likes Microsoft software??!!!

Yup, and it was Technical Diectors like me pushing their products in major aerospace companies that helped Gates make his fortune. However, I was instrumental in having UNIX systems embedded in military hardware. Early on the PC wars were between Apple and Microsoft - and in the engineering community Microsoft won. (UNIX kept an edge in special purpose applications).

I've never really spoken of it, because why bother, but I used to have some help with Kritzerland - someone a couple of you know, who used to be with me at a certain label.  He wasn't doing much, but did do the occasional contract, and did get things up at amazon and cdbaby.  This fellow, despite the fact that I did him a rather major favor (in so many ways) back in 2001, has not responded to an e-mail or phone call in over three months (I finally stopped trying and left him a final, rather strong message), and has basically left me on my own to deal with everything.  And today, I find out that he didn't forward me certain e-mails from CD Baby, which is why a couple of albums have never made it to iTunes.  All the CD Baby e-mails now come to me directly, but what a creep he turned out to be.  We know he's around because he boldly posts on several theater chat boards - and I know he knows I occasionally read those boards.  I tell you - people never cease to astonish and amaze me - both in good and bad ways - unfortunately, for this gentleman it's the latter.

Australian University Investigates Cadaver Abuse
Tuesday , February 06, 2007
 

Four staff members at an Australian university are being investigated for mishandling body parts, the university's vice-chancellor said Tuesday.

The University of New South Wales' school of anatomy in Sydney had its license to conduct anatomy classes revoked after an audit revealed remains were sexually interfered with and piled together in coffins.

It's what happens about 15 seconds before the average person turns off the porn tape.

Re: HEROES.

I read somewhere that they said peter was 26. It was on one of the HEROES message boards. I'm not sure when it was mentioned. But now we supposedly know that claire is 15 and peter 26.

I think when they met, i personally assumed claire was 17 going to turn 18. And i figured peter was early 20s (since it seemed like he had just started being a nurse).

They count, but not for Joan.  But keep listing because out of lists come ideas.

bk, you can bitch slap me from here to eternity, but I don't know who Joan Ryan is.  I am really bad with names and faces, voices, etc...   Anyhow, what kind of "person" is she?  Is she a Merman type and sometime more subtle?  That would help in trying to think of up-beat songs.

DR Derbrucer, I heard that Snickers pulled their Super Bowl ad since there were some objections.

This was the commercial i referred to yesterday that had two men eating at 2 ends of a snickers bar and they accidently sort of kiss (well their mouthes meet). They are macho so they sort of freak and then decide to do something manly and pull out huge chunks of chest hair.

I can see why some people would be upset. But it was a pretty original and funny commercial. One of the best i thought in terms of originality and getting people to remember the brand name.
