Haines His Way

DR Singdaw, thank you.  I somehow think I beyond quick, I’ll be happy if this doesn’t last more than another week.


COMPUTER VIBES FOR DR JRAND!

And now Greetings from my quite spacious and roomy room at my hotel. -Although the way this hotel is set up, all the rooms are spacious and roomy.   Not that I've been in all of them, that is.  

Not that I've been in all of them, that is.

Only most of them?

I inspected a packet of Jelly Bellys at the store - didn't buy them, though.

But I actually wrote down the flavor assortment to share with all you DRs:

Skunk Spray
Rotten Egg
Ear Wax
Booger
Baby Wipes
Pencil Shavings
Toothpaste
Vomit
Moldy Cheese
Black Pepper.



Yum!!

So I guess you had a good meeting the other day, DR Ginny!

Congratulations!

Ah! The new assortment of Harry Potter beans must be out. -I actually like some of those flavors. -The Black Pepper ones have real black pepper in them, and I keep waiting for them to show up on "Iron Chef".

So I guess you had a good meeting the other day, DR Ginny!

Congratulations!

Thanks, DR Jose!

Yes, the meeting went even better than I expected on Tuesday.  My mouth was dry and my palms were sweaty, but I've recovered and feel quite comfortable with the decision.  Shock waves continue to reverberate throughout my "sphere of influence," though.

Well, this is my tenth or so stay here. As a registered guest, that is.

And the others were as an interloper? A euphemism, to be sure.

I cannot figure how to fit it over my hand!

Maybe you're supposed to wear it on another appendage entirely.

I've been on the telephone, and am getting a very late start on the jog.  So, I must away.

And speaking of blood sugar levels, I really do need to head out and get some lunch, especially since I didn't have much of a breakfast. So...

Laters...

At least not this trip. Yet.

So, I got my diabetes bracelet, and I cannot figure how to fit it over my hand! I hate jewelry.

That is good. Now if you start acting strange (due to a sudden drop in blood sugar), people will know why.

And don't call me Ernie!

DR Druxy,

I noticed that you are responsible for bringing Roger Corman to the next Ray Court's show? How wonderful! Perhaps I missed it, but do you still work as a publicist?

Also, you had mentioned Diana Darrin was one of your first, who were some of the others that you represented back in the day? I am most curious!

I haven't worked as a publicist for 15-20 years.  I decided that I just wanted to write, and working almost exclusively for Mr. Corman gave me a very nice living for many years.

Frankly, I go to these autograph shows with former clients (Steve Kanaly, Michael Ansara, Diane McBain, Bridget Hanley, the late Dan O'Herlihy) and friends because writing is a lonely business and this activity let's me get "back in the action," so to speak.  It also gives me the opportunity to see old friends who I haven't seen in years.

Other clients?

The list is SOOO long.  In no particular order:  Christine Lahti, Barbara Hershey, John Williams, Ernest Gold, Henry Darrow, Paul Francis Webster and Sammy Fain, Abe Vigoda, Pat Harrington, Maurice Jarre, Gale Gordon, Jack Carter, Jessica Walter, Conchata Ferrell, John Russell, Edward Dmytryk, Howard Keel, Kathryn Grayson, George Sherman, etc., etc.
