DR Elmore - here's a virtual {{{{{HUG}}}}} to hold you over until I can deliver one in person. There's comfort food

Comfort food?! Yes, that's the ticket -- and isn't that the Enabler's speciality? DR Jose, take DR ELmo to Serendipity 3 for the $25,000 Frrozen (not a typo -- two r's) Haute Chocolate (ELmo can then take the goblet, spoon and bracelet to a pawn shop to help pay the taxes)...

(Good Gracious -- the rich have too much money if this is what they do for grins...)

And one for Dollar

Who's Dollar?

(And Penny's on second!)

Guess I should have made that "PennyO's on second" for a HHW reference...

So sorry to read of continuing problems, DR Elmore. I hope things can straighten themselves out without your having to be hospitalized from an ulcer or other problems brought on by so much stress.

I did read one little bit of news this morning that made me think of you and I hope will cheer you up a smidge. There are tentative plans right now for Image to release FANNY on DVD in April of 2008. We'll keep our fingers crossed for that.

Good morning, everyone.

TOD:
A mini-series, not a movie, but my fave RECENT production in a school context is BRIDES OF CHRIST.

Miss Karen · « **Reply #65 on:** November 08, 2007, 07:51:43 AM »

Break time is over. In parting, "Power to the People" vibes to DR ELmo!!

Jeanne · « **Reply #66 on:** November 08, 2007, 07:53:53 AM »

Larry,
so sorry to hear of your angst. I've found that most people can be bribed--and often for very small amounts. You might want to sweeten the deal on the Macbeth's loan in return for quick settlement. I personally have mixed feelings about people getting away with paying less than they ought, but it can be an effective strategy.

Hugs in any case.

Here's another one:

Rudolph, Frosty, and Captain Kangaroo: The Musical Life of Hecky Krasnow-Producer of the World's Most Beloved Children's Songs, a memoir by Judy Gail Krasnow

Even more TOD - when I taught in the Teacher Ed department at Miami University, I used one of the best educational films I'd ever seen:

The Mind's Treasure Chest. VHS, 92 min. (two parts 48 min. and 44 min.), color, 1991. Developed by Learn Television. Writer/director Harry Nathan Gottlieb. Support provided by Follett Software Company, Encyclopaedia Britannica Educational Corporation, Apple Computer, Computype, Epson America, Leaf, Mohawk Midland Manufacturing, 3M, and UMI....This program shows how a high school senior running for student council is able to win the election against a tough opponent using the marvelous electronic resources of the library. Its goal is to not only excite students about using libraries, but also to stimulate a change in attitude towards learning and education. Targeted to secondary schools, but also recommended for college freshman and adult library patrons.

I saw this well over 100 times and never tired of it. It's very clever and fun, but was becoming out-dated as information-seeking technologies were migrating to the Web. Still, I wish I had a copy.

I know I'm a day late for "Ask bk" day, but I was just wondering if Mrs. Goldsmith ever acknowledged your letter about the botched tribute?

Those who know her well suggested I not write the letter - to just let it go, because I'd never actually spoken to her, they said she would never associate me with it - and I took their advice.

I'm hoping Film Score Monthly will get around to Up the Down Staircase - they'd have to find something to pair it with, though - but they've done several UA albums and I know its owner liked Mr. Karlin.

Why I'm up at this hour is anyone's guess. Even anyone isn't up.

Matt H. · « **Reply #72 on:** November 08, 2007, 08:13:46 AM »

BK's up and I'm going down the staircase to clean up a bit for my lunch out with friends.

Hey, Ginny,

Here is a plot synopsis along with songs as they appear in the show. It should answer your questions.

I really like the CD. It's got some good numbers in there. Like many Jones & Schmidt shows, it was not particularly successful but it has had a long life in college and other theatre circuits.

Celebration

Thanks for the link, DR JOSE....but personal preference precludes me purchasing a book that lists WILL & GRACE in the category of 101 BEST TV SITCOMS....

Guy Haines recorded the wonderful Celebration song, I'm Glad To See You've Got What You Want.

THE CORN IS GREEN

Perhaps the green corn was grown in the valley that was so green.

And for TV shows:

Room 222 (which I sure wish would release on DVD!)

singdaw · « **Reply #82 on:** November 08, 2007, 08:50:30 AM »

DR MBarnum, half the time I'm thinking you're making these movies up.

Who could possibly have greenlighted some of them?

Donna · « **Reply #83 on:** November 08, 2007, 08:55:24 AM »

GOOD MORNING TO YOU ALL!

TOPIC OF THE DAY
There was this episode on, I think, Streets of San Francisco with David Opatashu as a teacher who barricades several students in a school room handcuffing them to their desks. He keeps them there to LEARN!

(Like the Twilight Zone episode with Burgess Meredith, this show has always stayed with me.)

MANY THANKS TO ... JRand57 and VinTek ... for your suggestions on where to sell my vinyl records!

Jrand73 · « **Reply #84 on:** November 08, 2007, 08:56:26 AM »

OMG of course HIGH SCHOOL HELLCATS!

Up the Down Staircase is probably my favorite school movie because of many of the things that MR K wrote about in the notes. Loved the book, and Sandy Dennis was so wonderful in the part.
