Good morning, all! I shall be E&T most of the day. DR FJL and I are taking the bus to Hartford for a performance of
L'Homme de musique and I am very much looking forward to the trek. Footage at 11.
I'd go for dinner with Allison Hayes over Bernadette and Barbra any day.
DR MBarnum, last night I caught a bit of "48 HOURS" and they were reporting on the 1978 death of actress(

) Christa Helm, who was a Hollywood pop tart moving in a very fast lane, keeping sex diaries, tapes, and lots of admirers of both sexes. She was stabbed to death in front of her agent's home. The case has been cold until this past year when her daughter convinced the LAPD to reexamine the evidence. The DNA under her nails says the attacker was a woman, so one of the questions is, was the attacker one of her girlfriends or the girlfriend of one of her boyfriends.
Marc Acito will be at the 82nd Street Barnes & Noble, my alma mater, on May 12. I'm hoping I can get over to have him sign my books, but I've got a band rehearsal that evening for the Ellington charts. Oy!
