All right all right. Enough of this! So he's good looking...so what...is he a nice person?

Well....hmmm...as a matter of fact he is that, too. LOL

I'm going to watch AUNTIE MAME this afternoon as well!

Has anyone ever sang that old song "rain rain go away, come again some other day" ?
Well, we're a-singin' it around here. Four days of thunderstorms and torrential rain. Now, for the record, I loves me a good thunderstorm. But I wanna go to the beach! *pout*

Well, I finally had my breakfast/brunch/lunch/late-lunch... A "scramble" of eggs, spinach, pastrami and pepper jack cheese! Yum! -Good pastrami too!

And now I'm off to the mall to see what catches my eye.. and my wallet. I need to pick up a few Thank You gifts for the staff at the theatre - what a great bunch!

Later!

DR ANN - maybe they need a sacrifice to the volcano gods to stop the rain!

Didn't you forget that talented young man that was in Scrooge in Leavenworth? I think he was a ghost or something?

LOL
I'll add that one in for him. That ghost boy in purple tights definitely needs to be on the list. And there's another one...an older version of said talented young man who was in Oliver...I think he was a pickpocket or something. He needs to be on the list too

I had not read Jennifer lost karma before I posted the note to Penny. I’m sure Penny didn’t have a clue about applaud or boo.

No idea what any of this means... told ya I'm slowwww...

And to answer about "Rats and Mice and Fish" - I played Selma in that scene, so I had all the solo "and FISH!" stuff. Plus my big showstopping high notes (Hal had Larry G put 'em in just for me) in the Opera Audition scene... unfortunately recorded badly, with four of us on one mike. Where was BK when he was needed??? And my beautiful duet (as Jacqueline) with Nora was cut from the recording. Aw, heck. Twenty years later, and I'm still MAD, d'you hear, MAD!!!!

So, Jane, I have a weather window Sun/Mon - I'll probably be whizzing through and not stop... but I'll stop over on the way back in two weeks. Egad, this is fun!

MBarnum: I loved the 40th birthday gift. But those pictures dispel the myth that your previous flattering profile photo was merely the work of good lighting. Face it Michael, you are a damn good looking guy.

I will concur. You are very very photogenic!!!!!

I'm confused. He was waiting in NYC at the end of your subway ride? Were the roses in YOUR suitcase? And if so how did they get there?

Sounds intriguing.

I'll assume we're still talking about DR MBarnum. Yep very nice. He sent me M+Ms.

I think I need to eat. I just realized I have not eaten yet today.

Yes DRJENNIFER you are correct!

MR BK must be super-bizzy today!

I'm about to direct some looping for the show. After that, I shall be looped and posting up a storm - I look forward to reading lots of your excellent posts when I'm done in an hour or so.

HAPPY NEW YEAR TWELVE GUESTS!

Jrand74 · « **Reply #103 on:** January 02, 2004, 12:19:18 PM »

Oh! I almost forgot about the most fabulous part of my trip to Chicago.

We went to IKEA! Yes, a lot of you DR's may have been to IKEA before, but not me. I had not! There is NOT an IKEA store in Indiana. This one was in Schaumburg, Illinois. And I loved it.

What a bunch of STUFF!!!! Most of it I don't need, but it was great to see it!

And let me tell you this, you need to get your television sets out of those chiffarobes and put them on low tables! That's it....design has spoken....the entertainment center is on it's way out. You heard it here at HHW!

AND I saw with my own eyes for the first time, an escalator for shopping carts. Yes, I am from Indiana, and we have no such thing here. As you ride down the escalator (or up) your cart rides up (Or down) on its own escalator beside you!

I am amazed.

More details

Well... I had to meet him. And I took a subway to meet him and he gave me roses then. and then I had to store the flowers in my suitcase to sneak them across the border.
When I give more details, it will makes sense.

However, I just would like to say, that had DR Jason made a move, it would definately have been over between me and cygopp!

Ya know, Dear Reader JRand 53, had you gone to Kansas City instead of Schaumberg, you might have seen a skyscraper seven stories high.

Thank you, m'lady. I will pass on your kind words to the old geezer if I see him around.

P.S. Ann: Rain is nature's cure for skin cancer. Don't forget it!

I just returned from Bloor and Bay (the upscale part of our downtown) - I had to make a Liquid Paper purchase. It was very warm for January, the sky a perfect blue; people were window-shopping everywhere and families were lined up at the Royal Ontario Museum. I popped into Whole Foods for a loaf of outrageously priced pecan and raisin bread, then bought a couple of lottery tickets and even remembered to get the Liquid Paper. A perfect way to start the New Year.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #110 on:** January 02, 2004, 01:10:14 PM »

LOL Dan - that just made me think of Lily Tomlin's monolog about being
"a impulse buyer...."

Oh wow you had to hide them. They don't let you take flowers across the border? Wow.

So when do we get the "more details"?

And did he grovel?

I want to add my voice of thanks to DR Jason for the photos of the marquees in NYC. Not having been there in two eyars, I miss it terribly and these pics bring it much closer. Thank you so much, DR Jason.

July can't come fast enough for me so I can once again return to beloved NYC.

Tomovoz · « **Reply #113 on:** January 02, 2004, 01:33:13 PM »

Best performance in a movie this year: Ellen DeGeneres. I quite liked Kennth Brannagh in "Harry Potter" as well.

Well, I wasn't in the right frame of mind this afternoon to watch the mother reject her robotic son in AI, so I took it out and put in ON THE TOWN this afternoon, a fun fun movie. I'll return to AI tonight.

Thank you, DR Ron, for the comments on the pic. We await the return of your image at a hopefully soon date.

JRand -- They didn't have souvenir books when I saw the preview, but they may have them when I go again later this month and if they do I'll get one for you. I will gladly send you a Playbill®. E-Mail me your address. By the way, I hate to correct you again, but it's NEVER GONNA DANCE. not SHALL WE DANCE (which was also a Fred & Ginger film. That was Gershwin which was why you may have confused Gershwin with Kern before).

Diane -
If you can only see one movie, make it THE TRIPLETS OF BELLVILLE. It was the best reviewed film of the year and deserved to be.

Matt H. · « **Reply #116 on:** January 02, 2004, 01:42:06 PM »

I didn't mention Ellen Degeneres in NEMO or Andy Serkis is RETURN OF THE KING, but both of them did outstanding voice work in their respective films and certainly are deserving of recognition.

I keep expecting some of you to mention those world class cinema artists Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck for GIGLI, but as yet, no one has thought to mention their sterling work.

Jed · « **Reply #117 on:** January 02, 2004, 01:45:42 PM »

Well, I gave in to sleep. But only 2 hours of it, so hopefully I'll still be able to get to sleep at a decent hour tonight.

Wow! I've never seen such a thing, either! I reckon I needs to get me to the city more.

Oh WEL.....whatever will you do with me?

But you know...it's that show with those people and those songs by that guy that is named after that movie with those other people....you know!

You and me both, DRJED! They say movies talk now and everything!

Just read Ken Mandelbaum's review of the Rodgers and Hart classic LOVE ME TONIGHT, recently released on DVD. He reports that on the commentary track, critic/musical historian Miles Kreuger rates LOVE ME TONIGHT as the best movie musical ever made? Wow! I like it, but I'm not prepared to say it's the best ever.
