DR Jane - don't you wish all household problems had easy fixes?

I sure do.  We did get lucky with another "easy" fix today.  Things are looking good. :)  If only the sun would shine.  I should force myself to walk in the rain.

Thank you DR JANE!

I have been checking IMDB to see all of the movies that feature my relatives from the past:  Sir Thomas and Sir George Stanley, etc.

Sir Thomas is in a lot of movies with his friends Richard III and Henry VII.

I am not sure if he is in THE TUDORS.....

Nope not mentioned in the credits....Henry VIII did stand when a son was christened, but I guess that's kind of boring stuff for that show.

Back from a half jog/half walk.  I did a little under 3/4s of my usual run - my legs are still pretty sore from the other day - then I walked briskly for the rest of the route.

Now that others have mentioned it, I have vague memories of Apple Brown Betty in the Louis Pasteur cafeteria.

I am a bit non plussed that he would say that MY own career in choreography and dance is NOTHING and means NOTHING when in fact, I have and will continue to do quite well, though never reaching the heights of fame of Mr Kelly.

If that is the way you took what I said, then that is the way you took it.

My point was that Kelly made his name and fortune with dance, was rewarded for it, and was honored for it, despite your oft-stated very negative opinions of it.  

Your being a dancer, of which I was only vaguely aware, is not something I was alluding to and has no influence on how I react to your comment at all.

And please never fear for one moment that Kelly has anything on you in the "pretentious" department.  You will go on and on and on...and I don't think a lot of folks share your assessment of the man and his talent.

That's not to say you don't have every right to dislike him, but to take so many opportunities to discredit someone who actually HAD a career in dance and has been acclaimed for it and actually MADE a very successful career out of it seems rather spiteful, snide and sad.


The above comments seemed personal to me - regardless of how you meant them, Mister.  :P

I must confess that I've never seen all of the film, but I find Irene Sharaf one of the most overrated designers in theatre. I think her costumes for the concluding ballet are awesomely ugly.


I don't care what you think of the costumes.

Don McLean was the inspiration for "Killing Me Softly With His Song".

(Of course someone may have answered that by now).

Guess it's time to tend to a few computer items and then head back down to begin evening viewing. I cleaned the dining room this morning, so that's out of the way.

BTW, just a general question for all:

At night and when you get up from it, do you turn your computer completely off, put it in a sleep/hibernation mode, or leave it running all the time?

To this:

Kelly at his pretentious worst and his ego gone wild with some really dumb dances to some really great music.


I truly wish I could just have laughed it off.  

That said, I am sorry I offended you.

I turn the PC off.  I would like to be able to do the same with so many other electrical devices - "Stand by" uses power.  (I'm just too lazy to keep resetting clocks).

you are allowed to post and say whatever you want about Miss Allison Hayes, BUT I can't write anything about Gene Kelly or a certain other female singer who I STOPPED posting my opinion about simply because I KNEW it made you upset....and now this.

Other people may let you write and say what you want about them and their posts, but I won't - not anymore.

STOP READING MY POSTS and STOP commenting on them, please, and life will be wonderful.

Nope, I had only heard the Warren Beatty.  I'm reading about the song now, very interesting.  Do you have the original recording by Lori Lieberman?  It doesn't seem right she was never credited for her original poem.

The Ladies Dance Call finished at 3:45.  And I was still on the clock as of nine minutes ago!  :)

All in all, it was a very good day.  We had a decent turn out, and there was certainly more "good" than "bad" and "mediocre".  I even got "introduction applause" today too after Kathleen Marshall introduced me! :)

Tomorrow, the Men.

And it's nice to have a few hours to recuperate after playing the 24-bars of the dance combination 141 times.

-Not that anyone was keeping track of such things.  ;)
