I am so happy it's Friday.

I refuse to do anything this weekend that I don't want to. (except laundry).




That's the spirit, Sam!

And I have to say that strolling up the new Times Square Pedestrian Mall was very cool... and very weird... and funny.  Different companies have donated the various lawn chairs, so each block has their own style.  It was also interesting to note that most of the people sitting at the south end of the TSPM sat looking north, and vice versa.  I guess they just all want to look at the neon.  For some reason I was thinking that even some of the cross streets were blocked off - they are not.  However, there are extra police on duty redirecting traffic - automobile and pedestrian - as necessary.

And speaking of lawn chairs:

Thank You, DR DAW.  -Now I just have to convince the roommate who moved out that the security deposit is something he has to get back from from landlord, and not the people who are still staying in the apartment.  :-\

Do you need condiments too?

If any DRs happen to be heading to the movie theatre this weekend to catch one of the newest releases, here's an ARTICLE about a new website/service that will help you know when to "go".

Very sorry to hear that 1940s actress Jane Randolph passed away at her summer home in Switzerland.

Evidently she broke her hip and was convalescing when she decided to get out of bed. She fell and broke her other hip and died from complications. She was 90.

She will be well remembered by HHWers for her lead roles in ABBOTT AND COSTELLO MEET FRANKENSTEIN as well as both of Val Lewton's THE CAT PEOPLE movies.





Very sad, Mike.  She was quite beautiful.  Did you ever interview her?

I never interviewed her, however she was nice enough to autograph a couple of photos for me back in the 1990s.

Jose - i decided not to go to D.C. after all.  The train ride alone, then four hours and two intermissions somehow didn;t seem like fun once I thought about it this morning

My friends Sharry and Micheal just saw GIANT - THE MUSICAL.  They said it was wonderful!

Lordy, I am finally back home.  The work session with the copyist took close to five hours.  At that point there was no way I was getting on the freeway in horrifying rush hour traffic, so I went to a couple of stores in Westwood, bought a couple of Blu-Rays I didn't have (Meet The Robinsons, which I very much enjoyed the first time I saw it, and something else I can't remember).  I killed about an hour and fifteen minutes, then decided to brave Beverly Glen to get over the hill, and much to my surprise and delight there wasn't really any traffic to speak of and I was back in the Valley twenty minutes later.  I went to Jerry's since I hadn't eaten a thing.  There I had to endure a table of thirty fourteen year old girls screaming at the top of their lungs, AND some beer-guzzling yahoos sitting at the bar watching basketball and screaming at the top of THEIR lungs, what with being as emotionally mature as the table-full of fourteen year old girls.  I left with a headache, but the food was fine.  I must now sit on my couch like so much fish.

Gotcha.

And, once again, thanks for your PM/link.  It really did help (me).

Here is the Save A Soul Mission staff from GUYS AND DOLLS, plus the very handsome Sky Masterson.  (Notice the plush dressing room)

I read the obituary in this morning's newspaper and meant to mention it earlier today and forgot about it.

Every one of us who has done theater has dealt with dressing rooms just like that or worse. It comes with the territory.
