Aldo Ray???

It's a choral number from Sound of Music:

All: Do, ray....

IMHO  MBarnum is much handsomer than Aldo Ray ever was.

It seems the FOX in Atlanta is getting Light in the Piazza before LA. Read about it HERE
And look HERE for a great visual tour of the FOX

The Fox is an amazing movie palace that was on the verge of being torn down in the '70's to make way for Bell South. A huge campaign kicked in to preserve it, thank goodness!

We premiered the last feature I cut here and it sold out! I had pursuaded Van Dyke Parks to be our composer and he flew out for the premiere. It was great sitting in that amazing theatre with him (the sound wasn't so great...oh well...) and spending a few days showing him around Atlanta.

They still have screenings in the summer with singalongs at the beginning, with the might Mo Moeller organ and the bouncing ball, and occasionally a full orchestra accompanying a silent film. (I saw Napolean, Potemkin and Alexander Nevsky there.) And this was the same theatre where gravity was *not* defied at the end of Act 1 of "Wicked"!

DerB and George thank you for the kind words, I shall post them on my  mirror.     :-*
 
Dr Edisaurus, thank you for the kind advice. In the future all pictures of me shall be taken from  above, preferably several hundred feet above.     ;D

Did edisaurus read a short story last evening about how to write a certain type of novel?

Edisaurus was up until 2AM wrestling her transcoder to the ground trying (unsuccesfully) to digitze the Mercer interviews and collapsed in a fitful doze, no reading accomplished. But tonight---2 chapters will be consumed!

DR Vixmom, I will be sending healing vibes from my chiropractor's office tomorrow. I've been trying to go for over a month---somehow, everything else has become more urgent. To everyone else!!

Ah, the travails of travel!

While acknowledging that my horror experiences with airport security are far from unique, or even unusual these days, at least, dear reader, you can be sure these stories are real and not some made-up Internet hoax.  My most recent run-in with the TSA involves the recently-discovered deadly threat of carrying toothpaste on a plane at 30,000 feet.

Good Afternoon!

Greetings from "At Sea" - wherever that happens to be latitudely and longitudely.  (sp??)

I got to sleep in today... Till Noon!  Ahh... :)  And I'm off the rest of today too, so... As long as I stay out of the casino...  -I did quite well at the blackjack tables last night.  This morning was a different story.  :-\

In any case...  I'm still having a great time, and I'm still eating and napping and eating and napping, since that's what you do while you're on a cruise.  We pull into Ocho Rios tomorrow morning, and I may head out on one of the waterfall excursions.  We'll see.  I have to work one of the functions at 1:00, so, it's just a matter of finding a tour that gets back to the ship in time.

*And I highly recommend the Guava and Papaya Souffle!  -And the coconut macaroons ain't bad either.  And our waiter even made an origami box to take the rest of the macaroons back to our room.

Well...  The internet charges are piling up by the minute, so...

As for the difference between "cruise" and "cruising"....  Both can be used as a verb.  And one can be a noun, and the other one a gerund.  So...

Back from the meeting, now must figure out some Brain matter prior to our read-through.

Agony
That's what Vixmom is in
She pulled her back out
And she wants to black out
Should sneezing begin
Agony
It's a back full of woe
So just let the pain go

Have they a Willy Wonka casino where all the cards/chips/dice are made of chocolate?

And as for the Topic of the Day....

Faure - Cantique de Jean Racine
Beible - Ave Maria
Barber - Agnus Dei - the choral version of the Adagio from the string quartet
"Make Our Garden Grow" - from Candide - Yes, it's from a show, but it's often excerpted
Those Christmas Carols by P.D.Q. Bach - "Throw A Yule Log On, Uncle John", "Good King Kong Looked Out", etc., etc.

Plus a slew of other choral works which aren't coming to mind right now...  Maybe I need to get some more sun.  ;)

*And I believe it's going to take me a couple of weeks to get back "down" to my current avatar after I get off this ship at the end of this week.  -I'm just hoping my "no elevators" rule helps in that department.  Although, most of time, taking the stairs has been faster anyway....

Oh, where was I?

Oh, that's right...

Daily Beauty Tip:

Quote
12 Beauty Pinch-Hitters
Emergency stand-ins for your favorite beauty essentials

If You Run Out of Conditioner...

Use: Mashed avocado, whole milk, or mayonnaise.

How to: These supermarket staples contain fats and oils that will coat and moisturize hair, making it easier to comb. Mash one avocado and, after shampooing, coat your hair with the paste (or with ½ cup of mayonnaise or whole milk), starting at the scalp and working through to the ends. Leave on for 15 minutes, then rinse well, says Edris Nichols, a stylist and the owner of the Edris Salon, in New York City.

Thanks DR derBRUCER, buy hair care no longer belongs on my list of priorities, not for a few years now.

I just comb it out before I put it back in the box.
