and my second favorite of a stage performance is this one with the late great Lucia Popp.

Do I see an Edisaurus looming in the distance?

Back from a good work session - several decisions made and arrangements done.  We're moving right along.  

I recommend Knowing When To Leave to everyone, but we just did it in Linda Purl's act, so it's a no go here.  I think elmore will be happy with Joan's CD - I really didn't let her go to the Meadowlark place.

DR Elmore - I have forgotten the answer if I even asked it! Is "Songs Of New York" available On CD?

Caught up with e-mails and telephonic calls.  I had another call from a post office person yesterday (from the branch where the problems have occurred) - he left a message yesterday along with a phone number - that number has been busy everytime I've called it.  I just called the regular number - they have no idea why he'd leave a number that's always busy.  He'll be back in a half-hour and I guess we'll have a little chat then.

No.  Its a Book of the Month Club (or whatever) issue .  Larry did some orchestrations for his close and personal favourite John McGlinn.  I have the record set.  I guess the Sondheim set is better known.

No longer.  Book-of-the-Month Club dropped it ages ago from their catalogue.  I hardly ever see it on eBay.  I have a set that I entered into my iTunes and I could burn you CDs if you would like.

Nope!  This was a 2-CD/2-LP compilation of New York songs from the 1890s through 1984 or so.

Thanks Larry - it would save me quite a few hours of cleaning discs and transferring them etc.

I could say so much about Maestro McGlinn and his research, but since I am bound by silence, I will say nothing.  

The Sondheim set hardly ever shows up as well.

Good Evening!

I just had some breakfast for dinner: scrambled eggs with cheese and a bagel.  Good and comforting.  And best of all, I didn't have to venture out into the cold for din-din.

Of course, now I want some chocolate, but there's none in the apartment right now.  Well, there is that box of liquer-filled chocolates I received at Christmas, but I'm not really in the mood for those right now.

Through the magic of YouTube, I've just discovered a heretofore unknown (to me) Shirley MacLaine movie--JOHN GOLDFARB, PLEASE COME HOME.  It looks like a wonderfully silly 60s comedy.  It's not available on DVD or on VHS, for that matter.  I want to see it!  Anyone ever catch it?  Has it ever been on TCM?

I saw it when it came out. A loooooong time ago!

More Mac tsuris...apparently, I can't even make an *appointment* to see a Mac Genius until I upgrade my OS! So now I have to go down there in person to make an appointment for another day.

ARGH!!!!

They look like Larry and one of the Darryls from "Newhart".  I wonder if their other brother Darryl knows?

Hmm... Sorry you're having Mac problems, DR edisaurus.  Which OS are you currently (still) running?

In the meantime, there are tons of Mac forums on the web.  Any luck with those?
