I guess my suggestion didn't work

Oh, I'm sorry Jane!

The director who's cooking said she already had plenty of white wine, so the folks who can't handle it are taken care of!

Jane · « **Reply #123 on:** October 17, 2007, 10:46:06 AM »

I'm relieved, originally it seemed she didn't want any white wine at all.

How go the rehearsals lately, DR George?

Adequately.

Actually, they're going fairly well, but we still don't have any sheet music. I think it's safe to assume that we're not going to get actual sheet music at all.

Otherwise, I didn't have to go to rehearsal last night and tonight is my one real conflict! I have a season ticket for Capital Playhouse and they're in the middle of their production of Sweeney Todd (supposedly based on the recent Broadway production) starring the Tony Award® Winner (for his performance in Damn Yankees) Jarrod Emick! It should be wonderful...and a great reason to miss rehearsal!

DeGeneres in Dog Mess

Quote

Death Threats Won't Sway Rescue Group to Return Dog Ellen DeGeneres Gave Away

The owners of the doggy rescue agency that snatched back the pup that Ellen DeGeneres gave away say they are not going to bow to death threats from fans and pressure from the talk show host and they will not return the dog to DeGeneres' hairdresser.

"It's never gonna happen," attorney Keith A. Fink, who is representing the owners of the Mutts and Moms agency, told FOXNews.com. "There is more of a chance that the Yankees are going to win the World Series this year."

Mutts and Moms dismissed DeGeneres' tearful plea on her talk show Tuesday, maintaining that DeGeneres violated her contract by not informing them that she was giving away the dog, a Brussels Griffon terrier mix named Iggy.

"They are not going to be bullied by the Ellen DeGeneres camp," Fink said. "It's Hollywood culture — she thinks she's above the contract and the law."

DeGeneres explained on her show that Iggy didn't get along with her cats, so she gave it to her hairstylist, who has two daughters, ages 11 and 12.

Fink told FOXNews.com that Mutts and Moms has a rule that families with children under 14 are not allowed to adopt small dogs — but they might have made an exception had DeGeneres gone through the proper channels.

Good policy - give 12 year old girls Rottweilers and Doberman Pinchers, save the cute fluffy terriers for the teen-age boys.

Today I have SVU from last night to watch, and then will proceed with MEET THE ROBINSONS, Disney's latest attempt to do a computer animated movie without the Pixar label. The movie was a moderate hit at the box-office (but earned less than half of what RATATOUILLE earned). There are some bonus features on it, but nothing like the treasure trove they put on their important releases.

I will say that Disney's last non-Pixar animated movie THE WILD was a bomb, but I liked it a lot more than the previous CHICKEN LITTLE which was a sizable hit for them.

I liked "Meet the Robinsons," but then I saw it in 3-D (which was incredible), so that could've influenced my opinion.

Ask BK:
Some of my favorite Alan Menken songs aren't particularly well-known. Are any of these in your upcoming benefit?

Ah, Men!
Need To Know
The Volunteer Fire Brigade
Real Life Funnies
Stop and See Me
With a Dollar In My Pocket
Not So Near
and, of course:
Pink Fish

I have a question for BK about the benefit, also! Will anyone be performing any of the new or extended versions of songs from the stage version of The Hunchback of Notre Dame (called "Der Glöckner von Notre Dame" in German) that weren't from the original Disney movie?

You gotta wonder about this agency. Why didn't they just go investigate the new home before removing the dog.

That's the pair you must operate yourself. There's a more advanced -- battery-operated pair -- in which the big toes of each foot tap automatically.

Okay, our new Kritzerland release is up for preorder - who will be first??? It's an exceptional release - a 2 CD limited edition of the soundtrack to Jacques Demy's Une Chambre En Ville by Michel Colombier. You can hear some track samples and read the blurb at www.kritzerland.com. I've kept the price low for a 2 CD limited edition (limited to 1200 copies).

For anyone who loves Mr. Demy's The Umbrellas of Cherbourg or The Young Girls Of Rochefort, this score, although not by Legrand, is right up there with those - it is an achingly beautiful score, through-sung (the film would have to be categorized as a musical, since every line is sung, as in Umbrellas), symphonic, filled with glorious melodies. Take my word, it's a winner all the way.
