David Cote is, in my humble opinion, a raging BUTTHOLE!!!
I take it you refer to the theater editor and critic for Time Out New York, and not the similarly named Chairman and CEO of Honeywell.

Correct, I just heard him this morning pontificating about how Rock of Ages deserved the Tony nominations it got and my ire just spilled over into the internt.

I wanted to say thanks for everybody for the good vibes and what not. David made it through great, I'm at the hospital now and they finally got most of their systems running again. The storms yesterday were nuts. I'm going to let him check his email and stuff, thanks again guys :)

Thank you for the update, DR jhvw.  Continued vibes for David!

At some point tomarrow I will have to put tape over my mouth and go to the hospital.  When they are done running an endless barage of tests.  Only 20% of the heart tissue is conducting electricity, what else do they need to know.  It will never repair itself.  What happened to the days before corporate hospitals and their motto of spend spend spend.

Ben - remember David Sheward's response -"a perfectly fine guilty pleasure - like a  banana split"

To what show would you have give the fourth nomination slot, BTW?

Well, being out of work, I should be conserving my resources.  But I decided to be wild and crazy and treat myself to something I've been coveting for a long tim:

A Kitchen Aid stand mixer!


Oh man, I'm jealous about that one...congrats!

Cilla - VIBes and Prayers are being sent for David's rapid recovery!

Thanks!  I spoke to Jon this morning. He said the recovery is continuing well and David will probably be out of ICU and in a room by tomorrow.

I know too well what you mean.  I really feel for you. 

For years & years my Mother-in-law's doctor drove us up a wall.  She, of the old school, never stood up to him & was happy to do whatever he said.  One day while we for visiting her Keith's aunt asked my brother in-law why he didn't go to the office visits with his mother.  It wasn't until that moment I realized he was just as frustrated as we were.  His response was "I will only yell at the jerk".

We're actually incredibly tired and looking forward to a little vacation next week before he starts his new assignment in Lima.

Some thick clouds have moved into the area, so we may indeed get those eveing showers they were predicting.

I watched Thursday night's SUPERNATURAL while I had a little snack for lunch. (Hope to have a big meal before going to the theater tonight).

Another excellent episode before next week's season finale.

Fred,

There are three I can think of.

I know that [title of show] has something of a cult feeling to it (and I admit I'm part of the cult) so I would have been happy with that.

I would have been happy with the overlooked show, The Story of My Life (though that would have been a real long shot and my third choice out of the three)

Or, despite some of the reviews and Jason's very valid points about the show last night I would have given it to 9 to 5.

There are also four actors who should have been considered over Constantine Maroulis, Hunter Bell, Jeff Bowen, Will Chase or Malcolm Gets.

I do think that many Tony voters (despite the denials by some on the morning panel) voted for shows that are still running, not shows that were possibly deserving of nominations.

I don't know why I'm so annoyed but I just don't think you nominate "guilty pleasures" for major theatre awards.

I'm going now to eat my ground glass and then tie myself up on the mountain top so the crows can peck out my eyes  ;)

I also watched Thursday night's SOUTHLAND. I'm really enjoying the show a lot, but I could certainly be a lot happier if they'd just drop Sammy and Tami from the cast. I find them thoroughly unengaging. Everyone else seems interesting and worthy of further explorations of their characters.

I cut a big bunch of lilacs off of one of the few bushes I didn't cut down a couple weeks ago. My living room now smells wonderful!

Didn't the article in PLaybill say that the Tony committee disqualified THE STORY OF MY LIFE from any Tony consideration due to the briefness of its run and thus the inability of Tony voters to be able to judge it adequately.

The Rex Harrison version of DOCTOR DOLITTLE was playing this afternoon on the Fox Movie Channel so I watched a good portion of it while I waited for my company to arrive.

He's going to be here very soon, so I must hop off-line now and be ready to greet him.

I'll have a report on the show either later tonight or tomorrow.

Back from West Side Story.  I'll have much to say in the notes, but because I don't want to keep anyone in suspense, let's just say that Arthur Laurents not being nominated for a Tony is well deserved.  He needs to never be allowed again to come near any show he wrote - what he and his cohorts have done to this West Side Story is criminal and the fact that it's a hit speaks more to the power of the show itself (which is always criticized as being dated and silly these days) and the low values most of these inane tweens and teens who filled the theater and reacted as if they were watching American Idol.  The use of Spanish is stupid and pointless and robs the show of some of its best laughs.  One or two lines, okay.
