You mean he could fart while pacing the castle floor? No wonder he never played Lancelot!

Still have 10 pages of yesterday up with which to ketch.


Rex Harrison could f*rt too and never got to play Lancelot either!

But then only a French could be Lancelot!! 8) :)

Good Morning!

Boy am I glad I don't have rehearsal until 1:30 tomorrow afternoon.  However, I had planned to get my haircut tomorrow morning, but I'm thinking a good night's and partial morning's sleep would do me good.  -And after the cocktails and wine and aperitifs I had tonight at dinner, well...

And for yesterday's posts...

DR TCB - Mary Poppins has three "teams" of Banks children (a Jane and a Michael).  There are two new Janes-in-training who will be starting at the beginning of October.  Alas, the previous Janes have outgrown the show - literally - they're getting too tall.

DR Ron Pulliam - Yes, my "quasi-first-date" knew it was going to be a quasi-first-date.  Although, it turned out to be quite a wonderful "first meeting" - for all of us at the table.  And since we were all from different professional arenas, the conversation was all over the place - and that was a good thing.

And as for dinner earlier tonight... I really did have a wonderful time.  I was basically the "fourth wheel" at the table, but soon after sitting down, it was like we had all been friends for years.  I'm still amazed, for lack of a better word, at how well we all got along.  The evening flew by - when we went to check the time after we had had our desserts - and the complimentary digestif - we were all surprised to find that it was already past 11:00 - and we had been there since 7:30.

In short, tonight was just what I needed after an uncharacteristically stressful week for me.  Good food, good drink, good company.  And, most importantly, some good friends.  Good new friends.  -And not a single Chimney Sweep or Nanny in sight.  ;)

One of my favorite Vincent Price performances was in "Laura," because it seemed laughable that he and Gene Tierney would be such a hot couple.  There was an interesting chemistry there with Judith Anderson though.

Speaking of Laura, special thanks to DRLaura who gave me a ride home from the airport yesterday.

I'm off for much needed rest.   It was nice being away from 108 degree weather for awhile, though!

DR td - I'm suspecting Mr. Hamlisch will lead the orchestra in a few selections from the "West Side Story Dance Suite", and probably a solo version of "Maria" sung by the tenor.  I'd say there's a chance that Bernadette Peters might sing "Somewhere" - I think I've heard do that in concert at one point and time.  She does have some Bernstein in her repertoire, so those charts could be pulled out too.

I'd say go, especially if you've already paid for the tickets.

As for the Topic of the Day...

Well, the only thing that comes to mind right now is "House of Wax".  Oh, and the voiceover at the end of Michael Jackson's "Thriller".

Carol's Dress Returned -- By a Homeless Fan!

09-14-2007

TMZ has learned that Carol Channing's prized "diamond dress" has been
returned. Hallelujah!

TMZ spoke with a rep for the Hollywood Renaissance hotel who told us that a homeless Caucasian man -- a person completely not fitting the description of the person of interest caught on surveillance tape -- walked into the hotel lobby about an hour ago. The man approached a hotel security guard and handed over a bag containing the dress. The man told the guard that he found the dress in a plaid shopping bag in a park in Hollywood. He said he was a huge fan of Ms. Channing's and had heard about the stolen dress on the news, and felt the need to return it to her.

We've learned Carol met with the man this evening, and even took a couple of pictures. No word on whether the man will receive a reward for the return.

Boy, I must say, it's tough to keep up when I'm not working at a place where I can access the internet and I don't have my home service set up yet.

The phone should be connected on Tuesday. Why so long when they don't even have to come out---they just flip a switch or something...

I am up early waiting for Comcast to hook up the cable. This was suposed to happen last Saturday---then Sunday---then Wednesday---and now today. And between all those bogus appointments and lost work, I have probably talked to 20 different people there who assured me that everything was "in progress".

Apparently they pay people just to listen to you complain and then agree with you and then do nothing.

If they didn't have a monopoly here, they would be out of business. And I've heard the same horror stories from everyone else I've talked to about it. I would be embarrassed to tell someone I worked for them!

Hi bk, Ben and singdaw! Looking forward to seeing you all in NY. It's one of the things that's keeping me going. I'm hoping today that we will at last have a working shower in the house!
