I received my copy of "The Making of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" this week. DP Colin and I enjoyed the show very much (as did Ben and Ant.) in London. Sad that it was "watered down" and did not find an audience on Broadway. I think it needed the involvement that is part of UK children's theatre. The audience needs to be part of the show for the magic to work.

I've had to wait this long for the DVD as it has been way too expensive.

I'm free!

Now, really, DR elmore3003, I knew you were cheap, but free?

Congratulations!

DR George have you watched Jeff Wayne's W of the W or Val Kilmer is Moses yet?

No.

But tonight might be a good night to do so. I did skip through a bit of "WotW" when I first got it and since I only have last night's "Boston Legal" to watch from TV and I don't have rehearsal, I'll start with that first.

I always thought eating Grape Nuts was like eating little rocks. They had no flavor (unless you dumped a ton of sugar on them), and I always felt like they were going to break my teeth.

I always loved Raisin Bran. I adored all the sugary Kellog's products, especially Sugar Pops and Frosted Flakes. My daughter liked Fruit Loops and that sort of thing.

Vinnie was obsessed with Count Chockula.

Has anyone else seen a resemblance between Simon Pegg, the very cute star of Hot Fuzz and our own MBarnum?

Separated at birth?

Finished watching a DVD. I have to shave before rehearsal - I haven't done so since last Saturday.

Wherefore art thou, page ten?

And what does Art have to do with thou OR page ten?

I will single-handedly take us to page ten if necessary.

So, DR der Brucer...when is the kiddie party? Or did it happen and I missed it? And, more importantly...

Are you doing the kitty litter cake?

He's busy being appreciated by DR Dan (the Man)...wait, I think I meant that in reverse...

bk - not a question, but just telling you I'm writting to the cd people again as I haven't received aforemetioned CD. Pushing almost 2 months here.

singdaw · « **Reply #256 on:** May 30, 2007, 04:02:14 PM »

I'm afraid page 10 is a long way off...

A question for Ask bk day:

We know that you often commission or create charts especially for your recordings. But what happens if you want to do a CD of many different songs, from different musicals, with the original orchestrations. Do you rent the full orchestral parts for each show? And do you then get the entire set of parts for each show for each song represented on the recording? THAT would be a mountain of material! Or do you get sent just the songs you need from each show? It seems like that would be very daunting.

I am still alive!!

DBF last week told me I needed sometime away from the stress I have been under the last few months and took me away for a few days. WE went to Wisconsin this past weekend and I do have a few pictures I will post later on. However one of them did not turn out. However, there is one I think a few people will have a bit of fun with.

I do have to say he was right, I needed a bit of a break and I had a lovely weekend as we went traipsing around parts of central Wisconsin. We went to a small cheese factory in Rudolph, WI and i brought home some lovely cheese curds and fresh colby. The fresh colby puts the stuff in the stores to shame. Another little shop had freshly made German Wurst.

I even made a stop at the infamous Belt's ice cream in STevens Point, WI and had a nice tour of the city. I will admit my bird pictures are nowhere near as good as Laura for I had only a cheap disposable since I had forgotten my camera. We left right after I was done with Work on Friday.

I got to meet his parents, siblings and neice and nephew. His nephew graduated from high school and is enrolling at UW-Madison in the fall. BTW, I dont think I will ever be able to go to UW-STevens Point again with a straight face. DBF affectionately calls it "Underwear with Special Powers!"

However my journey was not complete without going to Point Brewery in STevens Point. I came away with some Root Beer and of course, beer!

On the way back we stopped off at the Albertville Premium Outlet Mall. He treated me to shopping, he felt I deserved it. I had not done anything really fun for ME in a long time and he felt I deserved it. I managed self control and spent only $20 and came away with two tanktops and two shirts.

DR DakotaCelt - what a fabulous idea! Obviously needed and well-deserved. It sounds like you had a great time. Welcome back!

DearReaderLaura · « **Reply #260 on:** May 30, 2007, 04:13:11 PM »

I'm glad you had a good time, DakotaCelt. I hope you had a chance to unwind. We missed you.

DakotaCelt · « **Reply #261 on:** May 30, 2007, 04:14:52 PM »

Nice pictures Ben! You gents look like you had a delightful time.

DakotaCelt · « **Reply #262 on:** May 30, 2007, 04:15:36 PM »

I missed you guys two and I have a picture that I think singdaw, MissKaren and derBrucer are going to have WAY too much fun with....

Cereal....

When I was a kid I loved APPLEJACKS, CHEERIOS, FROSTED FLAKES< COUNT CHOCOLA, and FRUITY PEBBLES

Now I prefer regular, Multi-grain, or Apple Cinnamon CHEERIOS

DakotaCelt · « **Reply #265 on:** May 30, 2007, 04:19:45 PM »

Matter of fact when I saw the sign I thought of you guys... Too bad the other two pics did not turn out for it would have made the one sign even funnier. I will post the two bad ones along with the good one for it fits the the little tale of the three signs

Dan (the Man) · « **Reply #266 on:** May 30, 2007, 04:21:17 PM »

Sounds like u had a great time, DR DakotaCelt.

Though I did a double-take when I thought I read "...Another little shop freshly made of German Wurst."
