Swishy that's what I like about the Subway diet...

It's not about exercise, it's about eating sandwiches.  Could life get better than that?

(for the record, Jared lost the first 80 pounds of his eventual 170 doing little to no exercise a day and ONLY eating Subway) :D

I like the idea of making Emily responsible for everything, including the war in Iraq and world hunger.

TCB... I'm Roman Catholic.  In some way, I already feel guilty over the war in Iraq, world hunger and not going to Church.  :)

Must... hold... back...

There's another half litre of egg nog in the fridge.  It is singing such a beautiful song:

"Driiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnkkkkk mmmmmmeeeeeeee.... Drriiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnkkkkk mmmmmmmmmeeeeeeee"

What's another 37 grams of fat after the first ones? ;)

My 2 cents, if I may?  I know that I am still a relative “newbie” despite my full member status.

I have been though this kind of thing before.  I’ve said things on boards, thinking myself funny only to have them blow up in my face in a totally different way then I intended.  I’m equally guilty of taking offense where none was meant and lashing out, sometimes very cruelly, or being deeply hurt to the point of tears, myself.

It was only after a long, long talk with an internet buddy I came to point where I made a real effort to step back and tone down a bit.  I’ll be the first to say it doesn’t always work.  I still make mistakes but on the plus side, I think I’ve also mended some fences.  

What is said between you, BK and Mark is your own business but I have to think that at some time, you both had, at the very least, an understanding/friendship/mutual respect for one another.  If any part that is important to you or him, I strongly urge both of you  to reach out and talk about this, quietly and in private.  Don’t let either one of you be to big to say “I was wrong” or “I’m sorry”.  

Ok, I’m off the soap box.

And now I have a few bones to pick myself with Mr Craig.

Emily, I'm glad SOMEONE knew I was kidding, or at least attempting to be humorous.   There are times I think I've gone totally insane - wait, I HAVE gone totally insane.  

Just got off the phone with dear reader Craig - and I won't make any decisions  for a bit.  I will try to get everything to work out or at least that will be my goal - one way or another.

I threatened to make pasta and so I'm making pasta - simple, with butter and cheese.  In the meantime, I just found this wonderful photo which I had to share with you.  It was taken at Joe Allen after the Night of the Hunter session.  On the right are the late and missed Miss Dorothy Loudon and Claibe Richardson.  Standing on the left are Stephen Cole and Todd Ellison.

What had you all been drinking to make you so blurry BK? Diet coke can surely not do that. Or is what I have been drinking today?

BK,

Are you trying to say that if some people had not been on a certain side they might still be with us?

Sorry for the blurry - it's actually a very good photo, but I don't have a scanner so I have to photograph the photo and then upload it.  Isn't that technical?

If I squint the photo comes into focus. Maybe I should try that method with life in general.

DR MattH is speaking for himself.  If JRand doesn't turn around and start appreciating Maureen Lippman's performance as Aunt Eller, I'm going to boo him every 72 hours until his karma ain't an integer!   :o

What did I start?  It's all my fault.  JRand, you're welcome to denigrate Maureen Lippman until the cattle are no longer standing like statues.

If this here site shuts down, no one will ever discover the answer to the Who did Larry Hart collaborate with after Richard Rodgers? question.

I can't hear Riding on the Moon on the radio show either.

I'm not overtly taking any sides, except to say that from now until this damn thing is revolved, I will not be sitting on any Barkalounger chairs!

I don’t know what your all upset about anyway, if anyone on this board has any reason to be upset at this point in time, it’s me, me, me.

I must regale you all with my own tale of woe.  

In an effort to stay away from the stores today, I decided it might be a good idea to go have my hair trimmed today.  Trimmed, I say and trimmed is what I said to the beautician.  

Well, I walked in with hair down to my elbow–look at my picture to the left and walked out with hair to my shoulders!  I was sheared like a sheep!    Now if that isn’t just cause for being upset, I don’t know what is.  I’ve thrown a hissy fit, I’ve cried, I’ve almost passed out when I first saw it.  I’ve been ROBBED!   And it’s all you people who said, “Stay out the malls today fault!”  If I had been   shopping like God intended, my beautiful hair would have been safe from the depraved and evil clutches of THAT “professional hair care person!!”

Next year I will rise at the crack of dawn and go shopping like I should!!!  You see what happens when you try to upset the natural  order of the universe??  I pay with my hair!

Is Debbie playing Roxie or Velma?  Also will Brent still be in the show when Debbie joins it?

Now there is post with priorities. Thank you Danise. At least you were not at Sweeney Todd's - or were you? Thank you for the smile - even though it is at your expense. Think of the challenge now facing you in light of your new look. Guess you can change your name to Sean for a while.
Noel: I thought the question was only for Jennifer. I suspect people are only thinking about musical collaborations - there are other possibilities.

Re Maureen Lipton. I still have not managed to watch "Oklahoma" (after two years of having it here on the shelf  - I tried - but in the DVD I mentioned in post #2, I thought her personality shone through. Her description of Mr Jackman's effect on the cast of "Oklahoma"when he first undid his shirt was a classic. (Not a dry anything in the house!).

Oh my gosh, I leave for 5 hours and come back to this!

I emailed Bruce privately about what I think.

Do I think Mark's email should be printed here? No.

But the problem is we have no facts. Of course I don't want the site to be shut down.  Yet I have no idea why it would be.

You, Jennifer, will have to provide your name or answer the following question: What's the last name of the only composer Larry Hart collaborated with after Richard Rodgers?   :-X


Yes, the trivia question was originally posed to Jennifer, who, I felt, had the best shot of answering it.  But now, anybody can give it a shot.

Even though I'm on shore leave or retirement or something, I've read some of today's post and have to unretire for a minute to say that what I first found appealing about this site when BK told me about it and I checked it out was that it was so "nice" and relaxed and bright. It would be a shame to spoil things because of hurt feelings, misunderstandings, etc.. I know that this place is a second home for many and it would be terrible to lock the door and leave them homeless. That said, back to retirement and the Motion Picture Home for Non-posting Writers.

Why would I have the best shot of answering it? Was the person Canadian?

Give us a hint.

From what I read online, it said that Rodgers asked Hart to do Oklahoma, but he declined (so Hammerstein stepped in). Then it said Hart died. It didn't say anything about Hart doing another show.
