*And she's planning on getting in line tomorrow morning by 4:30am in order to get a viewing spot for the Parade and Ceremony. -The National Park Service is, apparently, "opening" The Mall at 4:00am for people to start getting in "line".

For JFK's "do" we were in formation at about 9AM - and damn near froze to death by Noon.

And after the parade, I hit the bar, and waited for my date to change for the Inaugural Ball.

And what did he wear to the Inaugural Ball?

Midshipmen did not date "hes". (At least not in public)

Ohhhhhhhhhhh!

THE MENTALIST did seem to have audio problems last night. It happened right after each commercial break. Since I had never seen the show before, I started to think that it might be a conscious choice on their part.

Snow melted a bit on our driveway....and now it's frozen again into ice....slight incline....so I slid down to bring the garbage bins back.

I bought sea monkeys for several young friends for Christmas, and they've already hatched...

I've written about five and a half pages. I'll probably do another one or two before I leave. Meanwhile the gray sky is finally clearing, so I may go do the long jog.

There's a good song to be written about sea monkeys.

I just ordered the Martin Hello, Dolly! recording. Do they have any others like that - other stuff that's never been released on CD? I find their site almost impossible to search.

Well, as of tomorrow we can say goodby to 8 long years of "Bush didn't win the 2000 Election".

Tomorrow, we can welcome in 8 years of "Obama really isn't the President".

I just received this fundraising appeal:

Quote

Because until Barack Obama releases his original birth certificate, USJF will challenge every action he takes as President, including executive orders and legislation he signs, because he will have stolen the election!

That's right . . . even if he's sworn into office on January 20, Barack Obama will not legally be President of the United States, unless he can prove he is a "natural born citizen."

What's more, every action taken by him while he occupies the White House would be invalid. And if he cannot legally be President, every law passed by Congress will be null and void because the Constitution clearly says all laws passed by Congress must be sent to the President . . . and without a legally elected and sworn in President in office, that becomes an impossibility.

Some folks clearly have too much time on their hands.

TOD:

I've mentiond this every time we do this topic: STARS OF THE SILVER SCREEN 1929-1930 which contains studio recordings of some big stars' talkie film debuts (Fannie Brice, George Jessel, Everett Marshall, John Boles. Maurice Chavelier, Jeanette MacDonald, Gloria Swanson).

The London cast recording of HELLO, DOLLY! with Mary Martin.

B'way: A TIME FOR SINGING, THE THREEPENNY OPERA (1976).

DR Matt, the HELLO DOLLY! is available through ArkivMusic.com:
http://www.arkivmusic.com/classical/album.jsp?album_id=202001

How could I forget John Morris' glorious A TIME FOR SINGING?

Thank you so much, DR Elmore! The last time we had this topic, you directed me to the PORGY AND BESS soundtrack, and now HELLO, DOLLY! You are the greatest!

I think the Mary Martin version is my very favorite HELLO, DOLLY! I do love the Pearl Bailey version, because that is the cast I saw on Broadway; but I think I still prefer the London cast.

I always liked the Mary Martin recording because the tour that ended in London began in Cincinnati and I saw the production. Martin was a fantastic Dolly Gallagher Levi.

I've always heard that Ethel Merman was the original choice for Dolly but turned it down because she didn't want to do another long run. Was Martin the next choice, or was she involved with JEANNIE and couldn't do it then? I find it impossible to believe that if they couldn't get Merman they'd go next to Carol Channing instead of to Mary Martin.
