Roy Thinnes has filmed an introduction for every episode. We've all aged, of course, but he was SUCH a beauty back then. Those blue eyes are electric, captured in these color episodes.


I liked him better when he was on GENERAL HOSPITAL as (one of the) Dr Phil Brewer.  Why do I even remember that character's name?  I was so jealous of Emily McLaughlin because she was married to Roy Thinnes on the soap opera and Jeffrey Hunter in real life!

I see today on eBay someone's selling a vocal score to THE OLD MAID AND THE THIEF.  Hmmm . . .  

Oh!

Did you want that old thing back?    :o

DR TCB, can you sit out on a balcony veranda of a lovely summer's day, watching the buff boys pass by into the park below, a cool breeze at your forehead, and a lovely libation at your side?

I hope not. He'd think he had died and gone to heaven.

Well today is the day to reveal what I alluded to yesterday because what I was waiting for has arrived in the mail this afternoon.

I am making a major employment change hopefully to start in mid-August. I am leaving Fedex Kinkos (I hope no at work sees this because they don't know it yet) and returning to what I was studying to be when I first met MattH online about 14 years ago.

I am returning to the teaching profession. I have received my letters of eligibility to teach English, Social Sciences & Drama  Middle & High School. (Grades 6-12) for the state of Florida.

I only have to take my General Knowledge Test, Professional Education Test and my Subject Area Examinations.

I do not have to take any extra English, Social Sciences or Drama courses. According to my friend who is a teacher this is very rare that one does not have to take additional courses in their Subject Areas.

Now the next step is to get a job interview and my friend is going to help with that.

I will keep you all informed as things progress.


Wonderful news, Michael!

OH!  And on my way back from Starbucks, I also picked up tonight's winning Take Five and MegaMillions lottery tickets.

;D


Sorry, Jose, I already bought the winning Mega Millions ticket.

That was the plan for tomorrow, but I may just stay in bed and hide under the covers.

That, or he's out seeking Sikhs with oh-so-cute turbans that thrill him like the vocals of Deanna Durbin.

If Fred were here, he'd craft us a turban/Durbin ditty.

Perhaps I'll have to follow it up with "WING SINGS THE CARPENTERS" next.   :D

I highly recommend "Wing Sings Dancing Queen."

Well, then, they'll just have to wear damp clothes (which in your climate will stay damp for about 45 seconds).

It is beyond hot here - finally had to turn the air conditioning on which, of course, is playing havoc with my allergies.

Well, I made 2 stops on my way home and didn't find the magazine DR Elmore recommended.  I even called him from the bookstore to make sure I was looking for the right thing.  Will try again tomorrow, someplace else.

DR JoseSPiano - where were you sitting for the Chelsea taping?  Were you and DR Cason in the last row, toward the left hand side?  Because it almost looked like the back of your head and a teeny glimpse of Cason [on your left?] in the intro to the last segment...  Maybe not.

DR brian mentioned finding a new appreciation for Miss Peggy Lee.  I have found a new appreciation for Jack Jones.  I've been listening, today, to Mr. Jones' 60s' albums, DEAR HEART, LADY, THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM and SHE LOVES ME.  I've also listened to Eydie Gorme's DON'T GO TO STRANGERS on my ITunes and IPod.

Good Evening!

Yep, this weather sucks!

I had to run out a little earlier to take care of a few errands - which I should have taken care of earlier in the day, but... In any case...

It is raining, but at least it's not that hard, soak-you-in-five-seconds-rain.  However, since it's been going on all day, well...  And it's not really supposed to clear up until Sunday, so...

-On the bright side, when I got to Kinko's, all(!!!!) the copiers were working, and only one of them was occupied.
