-Barbara Walters

WOW!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

I found LA RONDE incredibly sad underneath, almost sour

Try listening to "Hello Again" sometime.   ;D

CD:  The Perfect Storm (OST) and re-recording of El Cid
DVD:  oy--the Berkeley set, the Torchwood set, just finished Will & Grace 8, also have Robotech Blu-Ray to get to sometime.  Thankfully one box of stuff is delayed, so I have a weekend's respite before the next onslaught begins.

The Songs of Jacob Sterling.  Everyone is acting like this is a brilliant new concept, like no one has ever come up with fictional bad songwriters.  Not only Meltz and Ernest, but their precursors in the One From Column A days, Gluckman and Fitz, and long before that, off-B'way's Mooney Shapiro Songbook, and a couple of others I can't remember.  I wonder if this show would exist had we made the Meltz and Ernest film way back when, if the producers hadn't crapped out because they were so gung-ho about putting all their money into a great new musical (it's also why they crapped out on Nudie Musical) - the great new musical?  Bklyn.

Very gray outside.  I think I'll wait till ten-thirty to jog, just on the off-chance it will clear up.

If it's on the warmish side, wouldn't you want to finish your jog before it burns off?

Today, a work colleague gave me a bite of her octopus salad, which I had never tried.

It was very tasty!   :)

I enjoy a little sunshine when running.  It's been cooler here even when the sun has been shining.

DR Cilla, so glad Boo wanted back in the house.  Have a great trip!

In honor of your trip to Bethesda, today I’m doing one of the major tests they routinely did during my visits to the NIH.  I figured it was about time I did it & I’m sure everything will be fine.



I thought of you as I drove by NIH.  I thought  "Hmm I think this is where DR Jane used to go"  Ok, I didn't think "DR" but the rest of it is true

DR Cillaliz - did you wave as you flew over Ohio?

I hope you have a great time in Bethesda and get an "A" on you homework!

Time to do homework and maybe take a nap.  It's gray and cloudy here today.  It may rain. I decided not to hassle with going into DC.  I would like to see the WWII memorial, but I should have time to do that on Sunday.

LOL, thanks.  We aren't graded, but the mock hearings we do are critiqued and recorded so we can take them home and watch them.

I was looking for Ohio....but all I saw were clouds and listened to the lady next to me snore.  I really hope her kids got to the airport to meet her.  She asked me if I would walk her to the baggage claim, so I did and we got our bags, but I didn't wait with her. She was really quite nice. She retired 12 years ago and is coming to DC for the first time in her life to spend a week with her kids who are coming from around the country.

And you can take the Metro right to Mall to get to the WWII Memorial.  -Unless you really want to deal with parking in DC.  ;)

Hmm...  I've been reading some of the press releases - I love David Pittu! - and reading some of the reactions so far, and I think you're reading too much into everything.

I don't think the producers and creative team are claiming that their premise is at all original.  It's a riff on a riff.

*And as for BKLYN, well...  Just be glad you don't have to play and listen to some of those songs during auditions.  ;)

In other news...

My iPhone is now updated, and my last load of laundry is in the dryer.  Oh!  And I've even made a run to the grocery store for orange juice, cereal and dusting cloths.  -Sounds like I'm in for a fun afternoon! ;)

I didn't read it on a board - I was told about it.  And you are right, the producers and creative team aren't claiming it's original - they're not claiming anything :)  It's the people talking about it who are acting as if it's a brilliant new idea.  My point, of course, is that everything old is new again.  I wasn't the first, Mooney Shapiro wasn't the first - in fact, I'm really trying to remember what was the first - I have this memory of something in the early 60s that maybe Dom de Luise and Barbara Streisand were in?  Am I crazy?  Wait - Harry Stoones?  Does that ring any bells?

 ;D  If I were going there today the test would be free.  All the extra money would be spent having fun.

There is an Original House of Pancakes in Bethesda, which unfortunately was never open when I could go.  Maybe that was a good thing I could go eat a million calories.  

There is a nice Indian restaurant in the downtown area.
