Well, you've read the notes - you HAVE read the notes, haven't you - the notes were your oyster or your shwarma or your meat ball sandwich, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're currently making Apple Brown Betty.

Good morning, all! Where in the world is everyone?

I will shortly be off to Toyland, and after that I have a few errands to run.

Good morning.
I am here. I will be off to the world of Borders books shortly.
I find it unseemly that only DR elmore and I have posted, and it's only a bit after 8 on the east coast. . .

Welcome to new reader DR DA NIECE.

More thoughts to DR FJL.

Sounds like DRKERRY is coming along on his foot....and I certainly agree with him that Neal Hefti's score for HARLOW is lovely - though at times anachronistic....sort of like Carroll's hair and makeup.

My favorite episode of LOVE AMERICAN STYLE featured Mr Alan Sues as a baker who was trying to sell a wedding cake so that he could afford to get married. The couple he had made it for broke up over some minor incident, so he was trying to get them back together.

Alan Sues was always very funny.

Frosty Sunday Morning.

DR JMK will they have a unit to replace your defective one?

Good Morning!

I'm up, I'm up... And just waiting for breakfast to finish cooking.

And The Song Of The Day Is: LAZY AFTERNOON

In the meantime, Steve has one of his cable-TV-radio-music stations on: Jazzup Broadway. Quite the eclectic selection of music.

"Once upon a time you had to go to the theatre to find the best tunes. Hear what happens when the finest jazz singers meet Great American Songbooks."

So, far we've heard two versions of "Send In the Clown", as well as two versions of "Ol' Man River" - Al Hirt and "Screamin'" Jay Hawkins (that rendition certainly woke us up!!!). However, I think the coolest track so far has been Shelley Manne's version of "I Could Have Danced All Night".

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #12 on:** November 25, 2007, 07:11:13 AM »

Aww.. And now they're playing Dorothy Loudon's "Bobo's".

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #13 on:** November 25, 2007, 07:19:22 AM »

...And I'm still deciding when and how I'll be getting back to NYC tomorrow. I'm tempted to just fly back on JetBlue again mid-day, but since I want to bring up a few things, Amtrak would be easier for that. We shall see...

Good Morning Jo Jo-

Can one get JAZZUP BROADWAY on the Internet?

I'm checking into that now. I think it should be, but I'm not coming across a proper link at the moment.

*Although, right now, they're playing Renée Fleming's version of "Hello, Young Lovers"...

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #16 on:** November 25, 2007, 07:38:29 AM »

DR ArnoldMBrockman - "Jazzup Broadway" is part of the UrgeRadio network. So far, the Google searches I've done just bring up other cable systems. However, I'm also coming up with hits for MTV's radio service too which is now joined with Rhapsody.com. So...

From Friday's NYTimes... You can not blame The Enabler for this one.

Good morning!

Cold and overcast today. We're supposed to get rain today and tomorrow. We certainly need it so no complaints from me.

Matt H. · « **Reply #19 on:** November 25, 2007, 07:50:59 AM »

I spent about 40 minutes this morning finishing PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: AT WORLD'S END. It's 30-45 minutes too long and not a very satisfying movie experience. Every character has his own agenda (and there are A LOT of characters), so it makes for a very splintered type of storytelling that I almost never like. The movie made a billion dollars worldwide, and I'm sure if they would work it out, DIsney would make another one in a heartbeat, but wouldn't it be interesting if instead of trying to top themselves every time out with more length, more effects, more everything, they'd go in the opposite direction and strip the movie down to its basics. It could make an exhilarating 90 minute little adventure with just a few core members of the cast.

This afternoon, I'll be exploring all the bonus features. The first disc has the blooper reel. All the other featurettes are on disc 2. I suspect this will take me most of the afternoon.

I'm also going to rewatch the first 15-30 minutes of the movie now that I have the plot worked out in my head since I thought the movie got off to a very jumbled start.

Matt H. · « **Reply #21 on:** November 25, 2007, 07:54:06 AM »

With time left today, I'll be watching WITH A SONG IN MY HEART. Hope I can get to it. If not today, tomorrow for sure.

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #22 on:** November 25, 2007, 07:54:22 AM »

And from today's NYTimes...

Hard to Be an Audiophile in an iPod World

Quite an interesting read. And there's a mention of how today's home theatre systems are affecting one's "listening options", as it were.

Matt H. · « **Reply #23 on:** November 25, 2007, 07:55:15 AM »

Tonight, of course, there's new episodes of DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES and BROTHERS & SISTERS.

There's a late NFL game in my area, so that means COLD CASE will start late and I won't be watching.

I think there's a new DEXTER tonight, but I'll have to check the listings when I go back down.

Morning to one and all.

It's another lovely day here in Sunny Florida.

I'm watching the new BattleStar Galatica movie. It's ok.

Nice to see you posting, DN (that's short for Dear Niece) Debi! I told you this was the best internet site on the web.

The dogs are really wanting to go to the dog park but I can't take them for a few more weeks. It's cute to see how they care coaxing me to go.

Bear seems much better after his fall off the bed. I'm so happy he wasn't hurt.

I guess it's time for me to head downstairs and start thinking about fixing some lunch.
