Sorry about health issues, DR Michael Shayne. Hope everything is back to normal and there is no recurrence of the problem.

Hope DR Elmore is also healing and improving.

Glad to read about DR SWW's improvement. Hope it continues.

As I look at that packet it seems rather modern to me. This is more what I remember

My question for Dear BK Day:

Dear BK, have you ever eaten a crawdad?

Crawfish, yes - is it the same thing?

BK-

I asked this Question Two Weeks Ago and never got a reply...so again

Jerome Kern was signed to do the music for ANNIE GET YOUR GUN and died.Irving Berlin was signed on and we know what that score Is. However,it would be interesting to know what Kern would have come up with.

What existing Musical would you have liked to have been written by another Composer and Why?

Don't forget to give my regards to Kevin

Actually, I think I did answer, or at least I said I'd have to think about it.  I don't know if I'd have liked the result, but I did have my interest piqued by a Rodgers and Hammerstein My Fair Lady.

Saw BK's semi-beloved Musso and Frank in a very funny skit in Tracey Takes On...., which I just reviewed.  Have you ever had lunch with Ruby Romaine, BK?  ;)

I've only had lunch with Ruby Tuesday but on a Thursday.

I believe CBS, NBC and ABC are all showing the president at 8pm. Fox is showing SYTYCD (8-10pm).

I remember Fizzies but not in a packet like that. I never much cared for them either. I also don't remember having to add sugar. Maybe things were different in Coon Rapids.

I remember a Fizzies packet that size, but only in the supermarkets.  The candy stand Fizzies were only two tabs in a packet. 

I never liked the taste of the drink they produced, either.  Mostly, they were purchased for the sole purpose of watching them fizz in a glass of water.  The drink was simply taken into the backyard and conveniently spilled onto a rosebush.

Yes, but I believe Obama is making a special guest appearance on that show, too.

DR Ben - I like Maoz, although I will admit that the first time I went there, it took me a while to figure out the "logistics" of their menu. But it's very good falafel, and if you stack the various salads and toppings "correctly", you can come away with quite a nicely-sized meal.

And, apparently, Susan Boyle's appearance on "America's Got Talent" tonight prompted the White House to move the press conference from 9:00pm to 8:00pm.  And if you happened to catch "The Hoff's" appearance on the "The View" yesterday, well.... What an a**hole!

With all the postings about Patrick Cassidy yesterday

Unless I missed it, did no one pick up on the lady with PC in the 42nd Street photo was his mother?

I think he is very brave to let his hair go gray.

Yes, Patrick proudly said in many interviews that he and Shirley are the only mother/son team to ever perform together on Broadway. But Mark, being the anal-retentive journalist that he is, did some research and found that George M. Cohan and his mother also performed together on Broadway a bazillion years ago.

I don't know if Patrick's grey hair has anything to do with bravery. I believe he's always colored it based on what he believed would get him the most work. And the producers on the "Ruby" team probably thought that his given his character (a responsible car salesman), the grey hair was most appropriate. The storyline hinted he may go back to being a pop star, in which case, I wouldn't be surprised if a hair-color change was written into the script.

So, did anyone here actually watch "Ruby & the Rockets" last night?

Although, Debbie Reynolds does have that horn section.

When I opened up THE LUCY SHOW dvd last nite, I got a very pleasant surprise--there was a flyer advertising upcoming releases and one of them was THE MOTHERS-IN-LAW--both seasons of the show (50+ episodes) in one set.  There's no release date set yet but I am sure looking forward to it, whenever that will be.

Also I had a chance to meet him although I had no scenes with him when he guested on the TV series Sirens.

I think he is very brave to let his hair go gray.

As DR Amy just mentioned, that pic of Patrick Cassidy with his mother, Shirley Jones, was from when they stepped into the most recent revival of 42nd Street.

I like his gray hair. When he was on the Joseph tour, I remember how "gold" they had dyed his hair.  It looked OK from the audience, but backstage - I played a few times on that tour - it was quite, well.. "gold". ;)

*Although, I didn't really mind his make-up enhanced six-pack abs. ::)

I don't know if it counts, but didn't Judy Garland occasionally march out the kids during her "Liza"/"Joey, Joey, Joey"/"Lorna" medley?
