Well, you've read the notes, the notes were doin' it, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're currently doin' it - but that's another story.

And the word of the day is: BLUDGE!

Topic of the Day: assuming that a TV, a player (VCR, DVD...whatever is appropriate) and an endless power supply is available, I'd choose a show that was funny like "South Park" or "Whose Line Is It Anyway?" Every time I watch these, I laugh and laugh and just when I think I can't laugh any more, I laugh again!

Good morning, all! The alarm went off at 4:30 but I slept in till 5:15 because 4:30 is too early. Yesterday, after four hours of sporting and cleaning the Toyland office and then another hour cleaning out my storage space, I got home, checked the mail, puttered about, had some dinner, napped during the news, and decided I'd rasther sleep than work. So around 9:30 I went to bed, I had a very strange and funny dream about my brother Randy's wonderful dogs Max and Maddie, woke up at midnight with indigestion and took some Gas-X, which seemed to work. Now I've got 3 hours to work on THE MOST HAPPY FELLA before heading to East 54th to sort through more McGlinnventory.

Today, around 2, I'm meeting with one of McGlinn's best friends from college, whom I've not seen since around 1985. He lives in LA, but he's back seeing his family in Paramus, NJ. After that, back here to continue the Loesser.

TOD: Seinfeld.

DR elmore3003, did you see the McGlinn obit in the current issue of Opera News?

Also - have you considered wearing a surgical mask over at his apartment? It might help relieve some of the dust symptoms.

I'm no longer at the apartment; I'm at a law office on Third Avenue and 54th.

I did see the obit. All that incorrect info about him and the Secaucus warehouse is continued because the obituary writer did nothing but reproduce another's incorrect info. For the record, since this will be on the internet for a long time, John McGlinn had nothing to do with the Secaucus discovery; he paid one visit there when he was hired to write the Kern section of the Cataogue of the American Musical Theatre, edited by Tommy Krasker and Robert Kimball, for which he was paid - as I recall - $15,000. He did zilch, which is why the inventory for Kern is not in the book.

His work on SHOW BOAT leading to the complete recordng has nothing to do with the Secaucus warehouse except for one thing: the cut numbers "Apache Dance," the Box Office Scene ("I Would like to
Play a Lover's Part"), and "It's Getting Hotter In The North" were part of the SHOW BOAT materials found in the warehouse, and McGlinn knew where they were because of his incompleted Kern inventory. When SHOW BOAT was in London recording sessions, the negotiations for releasing for the three cut numbers were made, and I went to Warner Brothers Music and collected the material. I took them from Warner Brothers, had them copied and sent to London for the recording, and then returned the originals to the attorney for the Kern estate, the late Harriet Pilpel.

Well I would love The Prisoner but it's only 17 episodes,

So It would have to be Law and Order as of this year they have 19 seasons worth of shows and hopefully by the time I get on the desert isle there will be more.

I do enjoy series so I would look forward to watching them.

Also they don't seem to show the Michael Moriarity seasons anymore.

Druxy · « **Reply #9 on:** May 19, 2009, 04:42:33 AM »

TV Series on a desert island?

LAW & ORDER

These shows never get old...even with multiple viewings.

I'll second that.

Can Masterpiece Theatre be considered a series or is that cheating?

Saturday after running errands and doing some house work the Vixter and I went to a local production of Disney's Beauty & the Beast

For an amateur production it was pretty good

On Sunday we went to church where I ended up serving at coffee hour since no one had signed up to do the job

I was asked by a lady if I was the Vixter's grandmother

And the proper response would be:

[ A ] "No, silly - her younger sister!"
[ B ] To pour the coffee over the dear lady's head.

I received in the mail yesterday a Census survey of business owners and self-employed persons [I suppose because I treat my singing income as self-employement on my tax returns].

It says that by law, completing the survey is mandatory. I plan to complete and return the survey today, but the mind does wonder...

What would happen if I refused to fill it out and return it??

ACK! I'nm late for work!

I did get to watch the dancing parts of DWTS last night. Although i probably should have told my niece that she couldn't watch it. That would have made her want to watch!

My sister and baby Jadyn will be coming home from the hospital today!

TOD:

Easy for me -

I LOVE LUCY - all of the half hour episodes + the 12 Lucy/Desi Comedy Hours.

Ethel: You know Ricky's temper.
Lucy: Yea, we've met.
Ethel: Well you're gonna meet again, and I don't want to be here for the reunion.

Lucy: My talent is always being hidden under a basket.
Ethel: Can't Ricky help you?
Lucy: You mean Ricky Ricardo the Cuban bushel?

Lucy: And what about when Little Ricky gets older? What will he tell his friends? My father is Ricky Ricardo the internationally known bandleader. And then there's my mother, whose name escapes me for the moment.

Lucy: But, Mother, the bus doesn't come down our street.
Mrs. Magillicuddy: That's what the bus driver tried to tell me.

Fred: Just send the card to Mr and Mrs Fred Horn-inskey.
Ethel: Or as we are more popularly know - the Tagalong Mertzes!

Ethel: That'll never work!
Lucy: It better work or Ricky and Fred'll be planting their footprints somewhere and it won't be Graumann's Chinese!

AND OF COURSE:

Lucy: Are you tired, rundown, listless? Do you poop out at parties!

What's NOT to like?
