Well, let's hear some more of the comments!

My mail just came! :D And I got a DVD!! ;D But it's not "Deceit." :( It's a movie from eBay...which I'm glad I got, but I was hoping for "Deceit."  Oh, well.  Maybe Monday. :)

Come to think of it I can see why some got theirs also, NYC is a huge sorting center for the US mail for the northeast and she lives in North Jersey near the big apple and that would explain why she got hers already.

What happened to the standard for U.S. Priority Mail being two days?  Or is that a thing of the past?

Oh, never mind, I see that Priority Mail now has 2 to 3 business days as their guideline.

In the larger cities yes but in the rural areas no. Parts of ND only get mail delivery three days a week.  That is one reason I am glad i dont live in western ND. It takes a week for a letter to go to the more rural areas and just as long going out.

One poor gal wont be able to comment about the DVD until after it arrives for her in Britain.

These aren't going priority.  For Kritzerland that IS a thing of the past.  I was losing almost a dollar a package doing it that way.  Now, it all sort of comes out even, what with the cost of the envelopes and the helper and the labels and the delivery confirmation and all.  I just couldn't lose any more money on shipping and only wish I'd not done our first five releases priority, as I probably lost about five hundred bucks doing it that way.

The question about the UK girl is will she be able to view it.  I made the DVD all-region, but it's NTSC and the UK is PAL, so she has to have a player that does the conversion (or a TV that does).

she has a dual region DVD player that can play US releases.

eBay update:  The item I was bidding on went above the price of one of the Buy It Now copies of the same thing.  So, I dropped out of the bidding and bought it outright.  Wonder how long it will take to get here from Ft. Wayne, Indiana?

Salt Lake city fan just got her copy and her family teased her about it...

Northern Jersey and NYC fans have gotten... I am suspecting that the SoCal area fans got theirs also.. Have not heard from STeph yet...

No word yet from Florida, KY, Massachusetts, DC, Colorado, NY state, Washington, Michigan, Tennessee, oregon, Georgia, Missouri, Mississippi, Iowa, Ohio, Texas, Illinois, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Minnesota....

I suspect the Canadians and the UK one will be a bit later.

I have to concur with some of the choices already mentioned.

A Quiet Thing. (Liza Minnelli's version is my least favorite. Practically everyone else who has recorded the song has done it better than her.)

Disneyland. (I like Bill McKinley's version as it has some different lyrics than the one that BK recorded. But Jodi Benson is still the best female version.)

Once Upon a Time is a beautiful song and always enjoy listening to it.

Liz Callaway sings two of my favorite songs Stop Time and The Story Goes On from Baby. No One But No One can do justice to these two songs they way that Ms. Callaway sings them.

Meadowlark. Once upon a time it was a favorite but it has been recorded too many times by too many people and there is no one special version for me.

Someone In A Tree is in the top ten of my favorite musical songs of all time.

Dorothy Loudon's version of But You Go On. She was singing this song despite knowing the show was bombing and not going on to Broadway. What a great performer she was. She is missed.

I have been trying to figure out the trivia question. I went on a certain track which had some possibilities but it hit a dead end.

Great series of questions. This one is really hard. Not sure if I am going to be able to figure out.

So BK if you don't get a lot of answers at least know that I am trying to figure it out.

And since we were talking about Annie.

There is a new documentary about life after Annie for the girls who played on Broadway and the road.

Here is the NYT article about it.

Okay, the Spirtas DVD is officially up for preorder right now.  Spread the word, and Dakota anything you can do to get it on the Days' boards would be great.
