I may be able to get to the last of GOOD NIGHT AND GOOD LUCK today, and if 101 DALMATIANS comes in the mail, that it the #1 priority since the DVD streets tomorrow.

DR Elmore - I was going to suggest that maybe you needed a trip to Ohio for some pampering from your sister-in-law Jo and from your friends.  However, after reading the front-page

HEADLINE

on this morning's Middletown Journal, I'll just send some {{{{{HUGS}}}}} instead.

Part of it IS just you, DR Elan. For me, seeing a gay love story told in a musical (even as splintered as it was handled in BOY FROM OZ) was just as important as seeing Hugh Jackman's tour de force. I would have EAGERLY gone to the show even if Kevin Spirtas had gotten to go on.

Not to throw down a gauntlet here, but if you're looking for well-told gay love stories in a musical, I'd think of La Cage, Rent, Falsettos, or even in many ways Kiss of the Spider Woman before I'd think of Oz.

But hey, to each his own, and I've seen a lot worse than Oz in my lifetime...

And the word of the day is: RECHERCHE!
Laura knew that HER CRECHE was tres RECHERCHE - after all, how many collections of hand-blown glass animals include a hand-blown baby Jesus?

DR TCB....I ain't the Oil of Nuttin'.....although Gene Chandler, The Duke of Earl does live in Indianapolis....

I thought TCB had a great idea--you ought to be the Earl of Indianapolis! I mean, does anyone else hold that title? See, it's vacant. And I can't think of a better candidate!

Not many people know that the original, discarded title of the song, "Chain of Fools" was actually "Necklace of Tools."

But hey, to each his own, and I've seen a lot worse than Oz in my lifetime...

So we have six gay musical love stories in the space of, what, THIRTY years. The point I was trying to make is that they are few and far between and when one hungers to see his orientation portrayed onstage, he will look forward EAGERLY to representations of same even in musicals that are not top flight.

Matt, I know you write reviews, but have you ever turned your hand to fiction or screenplays? You certainly know a lot about movies; maybe others would enjoy the same stories for which you hunger. (Notice my correct grammar for the former English teacher.  ;) )

I would LOVE 12 hours of sleep! I don't think that's happened since I turned twenty.

DR Ginny - Whew! I was in widescreen too!  I thought it was just me.  -However, I went ahead and switched from Safari to Firefox and that seemed to "fix" the problem.  -And I was also able to see what who which DR was causing the problem too. ;)
