Walk to Save the Animals

September 30, 2006 - Terri Togonon, of the Rat & Mouse Club of America, gets a kiss from one of her pet rats at their booth...

der Brucer

THAT is pure PROPAGANDA!

How do I know that SHE gets a kiss from the rat?  Looks more to me that she's giving a kiss to the rat.... something I find definitely disgusting!

Propaganda I say! It takes more for me to get to "love" rats! AND there are loads of rats in politics! I wont give names! :D

Rat & Mouse Club of America!!! Gee whiz!! ::)

EDISAURUS:

Well, since your postulated Johnny Mercer film will certainly be a musical, it will be An Edisaurus Line.   :-\  I know I'm not up to FJL's standard of truly no-groaning-allowed-here-at-hainshiswaydotcom puns, but I'm trying.  Very.

Glad to see the kudos all around for The Last Starfighter, and also for the Grig.  The CD gets lots of plays at my home and work.  Just so sad I could not attend and also sit opposite the lovely Mr. Kevin Spirtas.

Also good to read the positive review of Night of the Hunter, another show I have grown to love from the CD.  But I ask you, why do these reviews never mention the orchestrations?

I suspect because neither the reviewer, nor most of his readers, are at all aware of "orchestrations" - they usually only stand out when they stink (much like sound)- (and, yes,  film editing!).

For the R&H films, Robert Russell Bennett's credits are listed under "Other Crew".

And who ever heard of Jonathan Tunick or Jonathan Tunick!

And what in the dickens is an "arranger" (a male Dolly Levi)?

Well, a last minute field goal just put the NFL gane into overtime - there goes CBS, schedule all to hell, again.

So...

For this Thursday, it looks like it will be a relatively small group - at least compared to last year's jaunt.  Off the top of my head:

DR Ginny and her DH Richard
DR vixmom and the vixter
DR Cillaliz and DR jhvw
And myself
...
That's it, try to make me feel guilty for not coming up for this year's tour.

It ain't gonna work.

I do not have the day off, der B and I cannot just jaunt up to NYC without some kind of planning.

So there.

I don't feel guilty.

Not even a little bit.

Not even a little, eeny-teeny bit.














Besides, my feet are tired from all the pavement pounding I've been doing at work.

Sunday greetings from beautiful Englewood, OH!  DH Richard and I decided to get ourselves near the airport tonight, rather than fight Monday rush hour traffic coming through downtown Dayton.  We had a lovely dinner at Caffe Antiolli, an Italian restaurant that's celebrating its 75th anniversary in business (they've only been at this location since 2000).  I had the seafood special, grilled salmon fingers on mild parmesan rice.  It was so simple it was exquisite.

We are just relaxing here and I'm trying to bond with the MacBook keyboard.

An idle thought:

In the good old days (i.e. when I was younger) filmed Documentaries meant unbiased scholarly research like Ken Burns "The Civil War". ...
Which der B helped out with, giving personal recollections.  Burns listened to them with the proverbial grain of salt, of course.  His loss.

Whew!  I think I'm ready to stop now. The stove has been cleaned, the oven is clean, the microwave is clean, the science projects are no longer in the refrigerator.  The laundry is done and folded...

I haven't had a cleaning frenzy like that in a while.  It was sorely needed!

You were 'way more ambitious than I, DR Cillaliz, but I did get rid of anything in the refrigerator that would not last the week.  Garbo, the garbage disposal, ate well this morning.

Well, things took a turn for the better at work today!

All that extra effort I've been putting in, wrangling carts in the parking lot, has given management the idea that I'm no one-trick pony.  So, today, I got to get some cross-training in the produce department!

OK, most of what I was doing was restocking bell peppers and apples.  But that's part of what they do in the produce dept.  Learning how to restock correctly has a little trick involved, particularly how to "rotate" the veggies/fruit so that the newest stuff is on the "bottom" of the stack.  This means that any fruit/veggie that is going bad gets spotted and tossed, since the entire bin has to be examined.  It also means that, in most cases, the veg/fruit that is located where the shopper is most likely to grab will be the stuff that has been on the shelf longest.

So, of course, logically the absolutely newest stock will be where you normally wouldn't grab first, right?

You didn't read that.  You never read that.  I will deny ever having written that.

He may be, but I know no Oscar Moore.  It's interesting, too, that I worked on two entirely different shows for this festival, and I liked both; I believe that both of them have potential.  What is interesting to me is that no one involved with the Nun who saw the Hunter likes it, and vice versa!

DR MATTH - I am sure TCM will rerun DOBIE sooner or later.  For some reason, I thought I remembered it in color - but it ain't so.

DR ELMORE - I certainly concur with your estimation of Barbara Ruick in CAROUSEL....that's why I was so shocked to like her in DOBIE GILLIS!  What went wrong with CAROUSEL, THE MOVIE?
