DR François - I like Mssr. Wilson. I just don't like his "Musicals" album.

Oh OK!

(I "know" at least 2 (Two) DRS who "detest" his singing!

)

There's a book out on him right now (In French) with loads of nice pictures...

This "Musicals" cd goes back to, what, 15 years ago?!

AND, it has been rereleased!

Meet the cast of the forthcoming Broadway revival of A Little Night Music!!

Miss Zeta-Jones is such a gorgeous looking lady!

Too bad they didn't give Hunter Ryan Herdlicka a chance to comb his hair and fix his tie after coming in from the very windy day before they took his photo.

Today, I'm going to work for a few hours, then I'm going to my sister's for pizza, a movie and to hand out candy in her new neighborhood. That's the extent of my day. But before all that happens, I have to install a new shower head in my shower. There's a part that's cracking and it's easier to replace the whole thing...and it's just getting old. I had it in the house I rented from my sister, so it's more than three years old. Now I have a brand new shower head.

Any excuse to try on your tool-belt wearing Lesbian costume.

Just had a delicious Indian lunch with my neice Katie, her hubby Brian and baby Cole.

Now I most got to Kohl's to buy a Christmas gift for Cole, while it is still on sale.

Then some thrift shopping

then home to watch some Halloween type movies.

And speaking of Halloween movies, I posted a write up of the Bollywood version of CHILD'S PLAY on my blog. The film is titled PAPI GUDIA (The Sinful Doll) and it is a perfect film to watch on a scary night...and that is just because of the disco numbers.

In 1979, the band marched in the Village Halloween Parade, and Kaiper Wilson and I made an appearance as Siamese twins.

I remember the parade very well. That was the year that "Roller- Arena” changed her name to “Rollerena” and was the belle of the ball.

Anthony is fixing our Cuckoo Clock. A friend gave it to us 2 years ago and the bellows have finally worn out. The paper tore on both bellows and our cuckoo doesn't cuckoo anymore. We went on line and found a repair shop and bought new bellow tops. We ordered them Wednesday afternoon and our post person delivered them this afternoon. When the USPS works, it's great. Soon we should have a fully functioning cuckoo again!

The time change in the rest of the world means that Beverley Humphreys and Showtime isn't on until 6pm tonight. Next week I can listen at the usual time of 5pm

I'm reading, for the first time, the book Auntie Mame. What a delight! I finished all the books in the house and was rooting around for something "new". I went to the library and they didn't have any copies of They Forsyte Saga but there was Patrick Dennis and Auntie Mame in a new (2001) edition with an introduction by Paul Rudnick and an afterword by Michael Tanner (son of Patrick Dennis). Some things are slightly different and many portions are much longer but it's a very funny book. I'm quite enjoying it. After Mame I will begin Michael Tolliver Lives. I haven't been reading much the past few months but between the chaos at work and getting rid of cable I find I have much more time and it's well spent reading. We watch movies (or BBC television shows) on DVD but watch very little other television. I'm very happy to have the extra time now to just sit down and enjoy a good read. I need to find a good copy of Forsyte Saga (Anthony's is old and wrapped in waxed paper to keep it from falling apart) so I can begin that which may take me through the early winter.

How many DRs of the male variety have ever done drag??

As much as I love to joke about it, I have actually not.

So far.

I played Greta in BENT. The character sings "Streets of Berlin" in drag and then the next scene finds Greta taking off the makeup and getting back into men's clothes. It's the only time in my life I have ever worn drag.

Your cuckoo clock has bellows? Is that normal, or does this clock cuckoo really loud? So loud that it...

That should be Broadway Bound not Lost in Yonkers, but I agreee. It's sad that this show can't make it some 26 years after it first played. I saw a recent performance and thought it was quite good. Noah Robbins made a very good Broadway debut.

I think bellows are normal. The word bellow makes it sound big but the pieces being replaced are actually small. The cuckoo isn't that loud and we latch the door at night so it doesn't cuckoo through the night.

I began my morning watching the making-of documentary for NATIONAL PARKS. It was actually a 25-minute "commercial" PBS-style for the series with excerpts from each chapter. Of course, some chapters I have yet to see, so this did give a little preview of them.
