I was retained to represent a young man on a First Degree Murder charge.

Did you tell the family that there was an extra charge for providing fresh underwear?

I shall probably take a second look at my Netflix disc for the weekend, YUVA, which I'm sure that DR MBarnum would like as much as I did:

I won't say that it was my favorite Ghost Whisperer finale (that is reserved for the plane crash in season 1). But i did really like last night's show. And i am so confused about the ending (Prof payne and his comment about 5 shadows???). What was that about.
I thought the reveal about melinda's father was interesting. And her mom's story was crazy. But i am still a bit confused. Her "father" has been haunting her for a while. And what about all that stuff from last year's season finale with her "brother" gabriel. Now i'm really confused. Is he her brother? And what was up with all that stuff about trying to get her to the dark side (last year). That part confuses me with their new twist.

TCB - Hope you're not laid up, mostly for your health's sake, but selfishly (much less importantly of course) because I'm hoping you, George and I will still be able to have lunch on Thursday.

P.S. to George and TCB - If anything changes on Wednesday or after re our plans, though, please please please (that's three pleases) whatever you do or don't do, do not let me know via email or this board - my computer access will be extremely limited from Wednesday on, and I'm not relying on making peace with my Blackberry before I travel. I'll send you both my cell number. Please leave a message there as soon as you know.

Here are some factoids on some of the artists:

Marcos and his brother Paul Sergio Valle are often termed the Gershwins of the bossa nova, being siblings and all, with Marcos writing the music and P.S. handling lyrics. You probably know their best-known song, "Summer Samba" (made famous by Brasilian organist Walter Wanderley) by heart.

Miucha is the second wife of Joao Gilberto, one of the founders of the Bossa Nova, and also the mother of current Bossa Nova superstar Bebel Gilberto. Miucha's brother is Chico Buarque, best known for "A Banda," which was a hit for Herb Alpert (though you should listen to the original Brasilian vocal version by Quarteto em Cy).

Bena Lobo is Edu Lobo's son. Edu is probably my favorite of the post-Jobim composers, and has so many gorgeous songs to his credit it's impossible to list just a few. Tomovoz of course will know that Edu was one of the most-covered Brasilian composers by Brasil '66.

Carlos Lyra was also one of the founders of the Bossa Nova (though he usually takes a back seat to Gilberto and Jobim), whom younger fans will recognize for his work with Santana.

Joyce is a beautiful singer/songwriter with one of the clearest voices (reminiscent of Gal Costa's at times) I've ever heard. She is kind of like a Brasilian Joni Mitchell.

Wanda Sa was Sergio Mendes' original vocalist with Brasil '65. At that time she was married to Edu Lobo (Bena is her son, as well). I believe MBarnum loves Wanda's "Vagamente" album, but maybe I'm making that up. She still performs regularly in Rio with Roberto Menescal.

Joao Donato is simply one of the greatest pianist/composers ever from Brasil. Fans of Brasil '66 will know Joao's great song "The Frog," written with Caetano Veloso. Joao toured with Sergio's other band Bossa Rio in the late 60s and early 70s.

Ivan Lins is without a doubt the most sophisticated songwriter to come out of Brasil over the past quarter century. His brilliant use of altered dominant seventh structures is amazing to see and hear. His sultry song "The Island" has become a modern classic, though everything he writes is magnificent.

I've had a wonderful day but I'm quite tired now. Today I finished the adjustments in the masters for the rental vocal score for "The Brain from Planet X" and started the band parts. Then I met Milla for the matinee of Tennessee WQilliams' ECCENTRICITIES OF A NIGHTINGALE, which had a wonderful cast except for its leading lady who seemed as much a genteel southern lady of 1911 as I resemble Cary Grant. The production was smoothly directed and well performed, but I don't think the director was correct un he choices abut the play's intentions or its lead.

After that, Milla and I stayed for a play discussion with director, cast, and the editor of a new volume of unpublished-till-now Williams plays. We then bussed uptown for dinner at Good Enough To Eat, and I'm happy to report the excellent strawberry shortcake is in stock for the summer.

Now to read today's mail.

For those of us who like to listen to Joe Nichols, I have a live recording from the Broadway Meets Country concert series on which Mr. Nichols sings GUYS AND DOLLS' "Luck Be A Lady." In hearing this, I would like to see Mr. Nichols as Sky Masterson someday.

I have just been reading the televisionwithoutpity comments on last night's show (also i had not read DR Elmore's post when i posted before). I did not know that Jay Mohr had a pilot that was picked up. This makes me sad for 2 reasons. One i think that he and melinda have just finally clicked recently. But two, i am hoping that he is not dead. When he said "why are there only 5 shadows (with 6 people) i was left confused. I think knowing that he might be leaving the show would make people assume he was dead. But not knowing that it did not occur to me at all since they already did something very similar in season 1. I really hope that he is not dead. Maybe it is just foreshadowing. Or maybe one of the others are dead??? I really hope prof payne can at least be on the show sometimes. But i think that he has really added something to the show and i wonder what the show will do without him there full time (whether he is dead or not). fuadf udoai fuoifudoipasufo
