DR Rodzinski - I'm glad to hear that you and DR TPunk had a nice visit to Ohio, but sorry to hear that you had difficulties getting here and back again.

England Dan being Dan Seals, who later had a respectable solo country career.  Brother to Jim Seals, whose on-stage and recording partner was (is?) Dash Crofts.

Yes, the most visible members of the Ba'hai faith. Seals and Crofts, whose "Summer Breeze" we have been known to make our own.

DR Ginny, do you want to get that info for DROWSY CHAPERONE to me so I can take care of your request?

Oh course, what many readers missed in Yin and Yang's dueling articles in Theatre Arts was that Noh is a form of Japanese Theatre, not Chinese, and they were slyly commenting on how Occidentals will confuse any Asian for another.  These guys were not only esoteric, but also highly satiric.  

A few years later, of course, Yin wrote another artice for Films and Filming about Hollywood's propensity for casting Chinese actors as Japanese in WWII movies.  I believe the article was called, "Keye Luke, Which Way Are Those Feet Bound?"

Yin and Yang never broke up their act.  I'm fairly certain you're confusing them with another Chinese comedy team, Ah and So.

Has everyone heard about the Dell Laptop Battery recall?  Turns out they can burst into flames...no kidding. Anyway, if you have a Dell Laptop you can go to this website and find out if your battery is recalled and order a new one free

DR Rodzinski, how is your diction on "I'd Really love to see you tonight"s - I'm not talking about movin' in -?

One of the great misheard lyrics.

In today's mail:  The long-awaited, I-thought-doomsday-would-get-here-first DVD of Hitchcock's "Mr. and Mrs. Smith."

Also, the LP of "The Belstone Fox" with original score by Laurie ("First Men on the Moon") Johnson.

Life is good.

When can life suck?  When a parent (or someone else) has given a man a woman's name...or a woman a man's name.

Hiya Ben!
No problem-o. Yes, I am back from Ohio. We had tough times on our flight out there, sitting on the runway for 3 hrs. And rough times on the way back, a sick passenger, and a two-hour wait for our luggage. But the time in Ohio itself was fun. Weather was very pleasant. Nieces and nephews kept me busy. Friend's wedding in Bowling Green was a hoot.


Sitting on a runway for three hours???  I would have demanded an airplane.

Hey Rodzinksi, if you happen to be of the mindset, you could call me on your cell phone during the concert and let me listen to some of it...after all I am the biggest west coast fan of your musical group.


You are the only west coast fan.....................

Not trying to get political,  just explaining one of the bizarre things about being from Iowa.  It's sort of a game to see how many of them you can see,  but the calls and ads start WAY too soon. By the time the caucuses hit we've been inundated for months and months and months and the real campaigning hasn't even started yet.  I'll never forget New Year's Eve 2003/2004  You could go to the Sioux City Elks Club and dance with John Kerry....lol... it's almost pathetic.  
 

True of several bars in San Francisco, as well.

DR JMK - for the SOUND OF MUSIC audiitions we had two high school kids (a boy and girl) do the ENTIRE love duet from MOULIN ROUGE (a collection of love song snippets) acapella....about 7 minutes of song - and it wasn't the girl's audition...she sang again by herself later....



I think I sang THE THEME FROM THUNDERBALL for my SOUND OF MUSIC audition.

And the reason you didn't include the trilogy as part of your Desert Island DVD list is because...????

probably because on a desert island, I'd need the men of Kristen Bjorn. . . :-X

DR Cillaliz, so was the one in the laptop that our DS Rob bought with all his high school graduation money and summer job earnings 2 years ago.  He's removed the battery, but says he can't deal with the steps to get it replaced until after his Prob & Stats exam tomorrow.

When he gets done tell him to go to that site. It took me about 2 minutes. You look at the battery type in the code and then they ask for your address and you're done.  It's really easy
