I may go out and get drunk with Randy and Jo Ann tonight.

You must! And hoist one in "slainte!" to your dear dad...and one in "slainte!" to yourself and Randy and Jo Ann

...Or I could just go back to bed for a few more hours...

Good Morning! (once again)

Are you sure it's not our dear Elmore's?

who was trying to take a peek at "your streamers" (or "open seam-ers")

Good morning. Well it's not yet 11:00 AM and I have finished the laundry, dug out from last night's snow, eaten breakfast and cleaned the kitchen! Whew! I am relaxing for a few minutes before I shower and pack for my overnight trip.

OK, folks, I'm about to make my way over to the funeral home. In perfect conditions, it's only about a 10-minute drive. Today - who knows?

Bye for now.

Cillaliz · « **Reply #66 on:** February 17, 2007, 09:07:51 AM »

Think I'll have an early lunch and hit the road. I think they should all be cleared by now

I'm still humming The Brain's Song and tapping around the computer to The Brain Tap this morning -- and I don't even have the CD player on yet -- it's just that those songs are that catchy -- you can't get them out of your mind..I think I was even dreaming of aliens dancing to Now! last night...lots of catchy tunes on that CD....

Perhaps they could combine and take The Brain to the Big Apple?

Yes!! What a capital idea -- BUT only if they sign on the original Zubrick as part of the deal ! I really like that kid !

I did hear from a producer in NY who'd been interested in the Brain - he's heard the CD and was quite taken with it. We'll be having some discussions after he's read the script, which I'm sending him shortly, along with our reviews and press materials.

GOOD VIBES!

Best of luck to all--at funerals, driving, etc.

The Marvelous Matt (painter/handyman/restorer) just left. He and I were talk, talk, talking about renovation issues. I thought of DR EDISAURUS. (That's why I was sitting here like so much fish.)

Matt has been staining the interior shutters for my little library/den. The walls are paneled and stained and we were trying to match the stain. Matt has a good eye and the match is PERFECT! I'm very pleased. I've lined up one guy after another to do this project and all somehow find excuses not to do it. It's a pain in the tuchus and few people have the patience. It's now half done--at long last.

Marvelous Matt also fixed the kitchen track lights and now I won't have to replace them after all, thus avoiding the inevitable patching and repainting of the ceiling. He also repaired an antique lamp in all of five minutes. One by one my many projects are getting done. Hurray!

I'm a happy camper/renovator!

Cason Murphy IS Zubrick...there can be no other choice!

I am thrilled to hear of the interest of the Brain, BK! But not surpised!!!

And I am most intrigued with Mr. BIG and BK working together!

Don't forget to look for Diana Darrin today...she worked with Bert I. Gordon in THE AMAZING COLOSSAL MAN, you know!

MBarnum · « **Reply #75 on:** February 17, 2007, 09:57:10 AM »

Books...well, I have the worst time getting a book read all the way though lately...but here are the ones that I have recently finished...all are written by my various interviewees:

LETTERS TO RAINBOW by Jeffrey Stone

BAHA'I: THE NEW VISION by Lisa Janti (a.k.a Lisa Montell)

CONVERSATIONS WITH THE DEVIL, DIALOGUES WITH THE SOUL by Jon Christian Eagle (aka Rod Dana)

All three I highly recommend, I particularly learned a lot from the last two books.

MBarnum · « **Reply #76 on:** February 17, 2007, 10:00:22 AM »

Books I am half way through reading (a bad habit of starting more then one book at a time)

THE MILKMAN, THE CONNECTION by James Westmoreland (aka Rad Fulton)

HOW TO WRITE A DIRTY BOOK: by Bruce Kimmel

And two books about Bollywood actresses ---

HELEN: THE LIFE AND TIMES OF AN H-BOMB by Jerry Pinto

FEARLESS NADIA: THE TRUE STORY OF BOLLYWOODS ORIGINAL STUNT QUEEN by Dorothee Wenner

I recommend all of these books as well.

Matthew · « **Reply #77 on:** February 17, 2007, 10:05:05 AM »

The last book I finished was "The Glass Castle" which was awesome. I'm finishing "Mozart in the Jungle" which was fascinating. Basically, it's a auto-biography about an oboe player making a living in NYC. It's great, I reccomend to all you musicians out there, especially you, DR Jose!!

Matthew · « **Reply #78 on:** February 17, 2007, 10:05:46 AM »

However, next on the book agenda is Ted Chapin's book about "Follies" which I'm really looking forward to.

Critical Thinking: Learn the Tools the Best Thinkers Use
The Cambridge Companion to Eugene O'Neill
Contour in Time: The Plays of Eugene I'Neill
Eugene O'Neill: A Critical Study
Thirst and Other One-Act Plays
Water Wars: Drought, Flood, Folly and the Politics of Thirst

Tons more textbooks where those came from....By the end of my Master studies, I should be the resident expert on Eugene O'Neill -- and hopefully all the elements of theatre that help make one a master in directing...

Eugene I'Neill? What plays did he write? ... better find a book on "How to Type Better: Avoiding Typos" before those papers are due...

No it comes in waves...I'm either sitting like so much fish or I am in fast forward. My cat sitter will be here tonight and my parents next weekend. There is MUCH cleaning to do...but for now I am hitting the road so i don't miss Samantha

Cillaliz · « **Reply #83 on:** February 17, 2007, 10:42:33 AM »

Before I go....the last book I read was Thunderstruck, by Erik Larson, well if you don't count the books I'm reading to study and for work. It was good..the murder part was interesting. I got really bogged down in all the Marconi stuff and the morse code/wireless transmissions. A little too much detail for me..it's non-fiction

Cillaliz · « **Reply #84 on:** February 17, 2007, 10:43:18 AM »

I go to sleep at night with Kurzban's Immigration Law 10th Edition.

Sandra · « **Reply #85 on:** February 17, 2007, 10:43:41 AM »

I think the last book I read was Clippity The Pony. Kayla picked it out.

Cillaliz · « **Reply #86 on:** February 17, 2007, 10:44:06 AM »

Now I really must go, I said I was leaving a half hour ago. I won't be on the computer, well maybe, I have to fix something for my dad, ...but probably won't post until tomorrow

Back from the sweet and fitting service for the father of our dear DR Elmore. The young minister used a lovely image of "living life between the bookends" that will stick with me for quite a while.

DR Elmore looks quite distinguished in his suit.
