He's from New Jersey, so the Oregonian needs to update their records. HOW I PAID FOR COLLEGE is set in New Jersey; there's that whole plot about the Hoboken diocese and Frank Sinatra.

Elmore, if you see this--years ago you posted a link (or maybe you sent it via email) to a hilarious parody of K-Tel commericals, only this one was for atonal music.  Do you still have it?  I want to send it to this kid who's doing the Hindemith Horn Sonata with me.

Nice review of MUSIC MAN in Hartford (featuring Patrick Cassidy, Shirley Jones, Jason Graae, Mary Stout, among many others) on Theatermania:

Brother David will be performing at Seven Feathers which is about 90 miles from us, and the location of our first pit stop when we drive to Portland.

It's along the same lines as selling something with a $.01 opening bid, but the shipping/handling charge (handling equalling labor, I guess) is something along the lines of $29.  And, of course, it's something that can be shipped via USPS for $4.80.

Bryan has a nifty little digital scale so he can immediately figure the postage, charge the customer a fair shipping price, and ship quickly.

I hopefully just emailed it to you.

DR George, I have liked everything you decorated yourself.  

Are you saying your sister chose your paint colors for you? ;D Did you approve them before she painted? I can't recall-what are the colors?

I've been hoodwinked  by Netflix! I need the super-special 3-disc set of THE JAZZ SINGER to se the footage of Elsie Janis, not the single disc edition that Netflix sends out. Damn!

Back from the worst-attended Ray Courts show I can ever remember.  Empty aisles for the most part, and when Patty Duke doesn't have more than a couple of people in line, you know something's wrong.  I did meet Patty (her handler is a friend of mine) and she was very sweet.  Mr. Rothman tagged along and had worked with a few people, so we had fun conversations with any number of them, including Dwayne Hickman, who's a great guy and who looks twenty years younger than he really is, Steve Franken, Warren Berlinger, Cisse Colpitz, Dick Van Patten, Dorian Harewood, etc.  Also seen, Kevin McCarthy with no one at his table the entire time I was there, the ageless William Schallert, Lindsay Wagner, Dom de Luise (very sour-looking individual), my friend Sara Ballantine and her daddy Carl, Edith Fellows, Gogi Grant, Linda Blair, Bo Hopkins, Jeff Conaway, Mini-me, and many others.

After the show we supped at Michael's Bar and Grill - another fantastic meal, and while I ate a lot, I did not eat as much as usual.

Bryan said something similar about the movie so we decided to pass.

This may seem strange but I'm not sure I read the book.  I may have read an excerpt from it, or just seen to many blurbs on it.  Obviously, if I have read the book it didn't make a great impression on me. ;D

Have you thought about doing something closer to your own color?  It looks very nice this way, plus it looks thicker with the darker color..

Okay, we've solved the mystery of Larry and TCB not getting their copies - there are about six invoices that aren't marked "completed" that we found, so obviously our crack helpers let these slip by - they'll go out first thing Monday morning.

I'm catching a bit of DR PHIL today. What on earth would make someone go on the air and admit to sexually abusing his sister, brothers and daughter, and possibly his grandson?

Why would anyone willingly want the world to see what a horror they are?



Hmm, sounds like Keir Dullea on LAW & ORDER.

She was a "free spirit" with no home of her own, really, she used to drift from place to place, so she asked me to keep it.  She was my "exotic" girlfriend--I was in my 20s, she was in her mid-30s, from Morocco, and was a very successful belly dancer here for years.  She also had a glass eye, which I did not realize until our first night together when she said "My eye hurts" and then she popped it out of her socket and set it on the nightstand.  I withstood the strong urge to scream like a girly-man.   ;D


Why was Jeffrey in her bedroom if they weren't married?
