But one last thing before I go...

IT'S OFFICIAL!! My refinancing went through! My original 30-year mortgage is paid off!! I won't have to start making payments for my new (almost 2% lower) 15-year mortgage until May!!

In other news, I started developing a headache around 5:00, so after I was done with the auditions, I just headed on home. Thankfully, my headache is starting to go away. I think I just mis-timed my meals and snacks and water breaks today. We shall see. Otherwise, it was a pretty cool audition session. I thought it was just going to be the final auditions for prospective Jane's and Michael's for Mary Poppins, but as I was packing up my bag I was informed, "Oh, there are still more auditions to play for." Oh!, OK. -And that's how I ended up playing for Harvery Evans.

Did you say hello to Mr. Evans - we like him very much.

How To Succeed was, in its day, considered a hard-edged satire of big business, but the film is pretty similar in tone, if I remember correctly.

The first time I did the show we had quite a cast:

Me as Finch
Mike Lembeck (Harvey's son, and now director of the Santa Clause sequels) as Frump
Annette Cardona (aka Annette Charles aka Cha Cha in the film of Grease)
Linda Hart as Smitty
and Kenny Rogers' then wife, Margo, as Hedy.

DR RLP - I hope you took advantage of the Gold Box and got Girl Next Door....for 8 dollars less than I paid.....grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I did get it!

As for commentaries, I'm always wanting to believe the folks who do them know exactly what they are talking about. Sometimes, though, the research doesn't seem to be all that thorough with them.

I don't know how Homeier or Leith pronounced their names, but I'd like to think I'd have heard something other than "Ho-myer" and "Leeth" after all these years.

Frump....LOL....I'm going out for a smoke.

He's going out to call his mother.

Wow, that's an inspired bit of casting!

Oh, wait, I'm thinking of Linda Hunt.

"American Idol" chatter ahead...

Quote from: Ron Pulliam on March 13, 2008, 11:33:25 AM

And I don't care what anyone else thinks: Kristy Lee Cook rocks! That song was very agreeable for the C/W spin she put on it. It was a bit too C/W for my tastes, but it "worked", despite Simon's hypocritical stance that it didn't translate. It was as viable for C/W as Amanda's was for a southern juke joint.

She was the performer who I thought had performed her song better last night, than during her initial performance. I actually went back and compared the two performances, and she really was off a half-beat for most of the time on Tuesday night. Her toe was tapping down when it should have been up - or something like that. She was never "in the pocket" on Tuesday night. *It also sounded like they adjusted the audio mix to help her out during the elimination show, more bass drum, and less kick (more "boom", less "chick").

And, yes, David Archuleta was so not good this week. His cuteness really carried him. However, when someone "good" has a "bad" week, that usually ends up helping them in the long run. The "public" tends to start taking good performance after good performance for granted. Now he can stage a comeback.

Jrand73 · « **Reply #198 on:** March 13, 2008, 05:10:26 PM »

Well we can just start calling him Skippy Ho-mee-ay and see how many people correct us.

Virginia of course is most famous as Jan in the Pan in THE BRAIN THAT WOULDN'T DIE.

Rode mentioned he had been trying to contact her for a book he was writing on Film Noir, and she was MIA.....

Mr. Wiggley is quite comfortable, laying on the couch next to der Brucer.

He's confused by events, of course, but not threatened.

...Wiggles first trip to the side yard.

...

It was quite something, when I walked into the house post-workday, to find five faces looking up at me, one of them fully black and curious as to what was happening. Wiggles is indeed ~~a doll~~ a boy's pose-able action figure.

He immediately knew that the line-up for doggie bisquits was to include him, and what "sit" means.

He's still unsure of what these new surroundings mean for him. So far, there have been no fights, at least no negative ones - I don't count puppy pouncing as negative.

I should try to get dinner on the table. I'm making another stab at fish and chips.

Pray for Rosemary's Deep-Frier.
