Ooooh, we're getting a family fight, exclusively here on HHW!

Who would have thought?

Imho, short posts are just to add up without wanting to say much!

Not fair! Not fair!

The dating pool? Seems I'm usually in over my head in that regard.

Wait, let me rephrase that . . . !  :)

I meant to mention this last night, but on last night's LAW & ORDER, both Sophie Hayden and Michael Rupert, two musical theater favorites, had roles in the show. I hadn't seen Michael in several years. I hardly recognized him.

Ah, how well I remember being so impressed with him in THE HAPPY TIME, a show I've always felt got a bum rap. I found it very entertaining with a glorious score.

Craig, your review was faboo (to quote a certain puppet)...

But the real question is: did you see Madonna at the opening? :)

Colin and I have no memory of anyone in "She Loves Me" using an American accent when we saw it. It would have been most off putting. Maybe they used the accents if there were Americans making up the majority of the audience!  Maybe people think Russell Crowe and Nicole Kidman use American accents. They don't to my ear. The lead actor in the show used an American accent when he was on a British sitcom ("As Time Goes By") but certainly not when I saw the Ruthie version.

Oh and to all you SURVIVOR junkies...

I am SO glad Rupert was not booted today.  He's the only good part of this season...

Am I the only person...

who has noticed that I really like using ellipses (aka the "three dots") in all my posts?

I mean... really... I use them a lot...

More to the last post. I had assumed that John Gordon Sinclair was an American until I heard a decidely British accent in "She Loves Me".

What DR ROn is referring to was an advanced screening (by one day - lol) of MASTER AND COMMANDER that I went to tonight. It is quite a wonderful film, and if you like the Horatio Hornblower type sea yarn or if you've read the books, you should enjoy this very much.

I have always been a Hornblower fan!

Random story:
At work today, I was talking with Megi, who's 11. Her brother, Jamie, is in our teen class. I mentioned how he's a good actor and that he also has a nice little voice. (I caught him singing on Monday.) I asked Megi if Jamie sings at home. She scrunched up her nose, looked right at me and said, "Yeah, all the time. You should hear him when he's on the toilet." I tried so hard not to crack up! Guess what story I'll be telling to the teen class on Monday night! heeheehee

TCB and Matt...

I LOVE the Hornblower books and the movies...

Is there anyone hotter than Ioan Gruffudd?  sigh... Ioan...

(Why is it that I have a thing for men with weird names?  First Norbert Leo Butz and now Ioan Gruffudd.  This is what happens when every second girl newborn is called "Emily"!) :)

In the BBC version of SHE LOVES ME that I have on videotape (taped on my very first VCR circa 1979), they all use British accents.

Does anyone find it odd that the TABOO review on Broadway.Com is NOT by Kenmandelbaum who normally reviews all Broadway and most Off-Broadway musicals?  Did he decline or were they afraid of what he would say?

By the way, I would classify the bonus tracks on the GYPSY soundtrack with Florence Foster Jenkins and Mrs. Miller!

I thought Survivor was aired at 8pm local time in all time zones Mark.. making my post okay (since I made it past 12:00am EST) which would have meant that even those DRs in PST would have had the chance to watch it live.

If I did spoil it for anyone... I'm sorry :(
