Well, you've read the notes, the notes were the notes, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're currently looking reading their fortunes - You will soon come home. 

[bk]

And the word of the day is: EDACIOUS!

[George]

Happy Friday!  The bios for "The Brain From Planet X" are due today!  I'm rewriting the one I used for "Romeo & Juliet" last year, but I want to add a little bit.

[FJL]

Just finished a big monster of a return.  (no, not "The Return of Godzilla")

Hoping Monday and Tuesday will be catching-breath days, relatively easy days (comparatively) since they're holy days on the Jewish calendar (last two days of Passover), so we know the Orthodox Jewish clients will not be calling.

[Ben]

Morning all.

I will be on Long Island this weekend and Larry is in DC.

That is all.

[Jrand73]

And I'm still here.....an Yvonne DeCarlo reference.

[Jrand73]

Don't we get a Kritzerland release announcement here tonight?

Sounds like the rehearsal for the LONG musical is going along nicely....and what fun everyone must be having.  I hope everyone has a PENCIL with them and writes everything down!!!

[Kerry]

TOD:

CDs--Original Cast- "Drowsy Chaperone"  and "Flower Drum Song"
(Not that the Drowsy Chaperone and Flower Drum Song had the same casts).

I'd like to hear the OBC of "My Fair Lady"  sing the score to "Flower Drum Song" and vice versa.

TOD:

DVD: "Chinatown" and "Clueless," but not as a double feature.

CD Player: "Gospel at Colonus," "Shenandoah"

Today is Good Friday.

[Dan (the Man)]

[Matt H.]

Good morning!

It nearly got up to 90 yesterday and today and tomorrow will be the same. 90 in early April? What does this mean for this summer? Yikes!

[Matt H.]

No new review material has arrived yet (though it's still relatively early so something might come later). If not, I'll have a day off from work today. For some reason, I really love having Fridays off.

[Matt H.]

How wonderful that we get new episodes of MEDIUM and GHOST WHISPERER tonight. MEDIUM is the first of a two-part episode. That doesn't make me thrilled, but I'm so glad to have it back that I'll take whatever they give me without complaint.

[Matt H.]

Friday Media Check:

CD - MR. PRESIDENT (OCR)

DVD - RESURRECTION
         JULIE & JULIA (Blu-ray)
         NCIS, Season 2, disc 4

         last night's THE MENTALIST
         last night's PROJECT RUNWAY
         last night's SUPERNATURAL

[Dan (the Man)]

Speaking of Tivo, I might be upgrading to the new Tivo Premier soon.  It not only records HD channels, but also allows access to downloadable media from Amazon, Netflix and YouTube.  Also, I got an e-mail offer to get the lifetime Tivo service at 50% off, along with a sale price on the unit itself.  The only dealbreaker might be Comcast--I think I had read last year that the company was going to stop supplying cable cards to its customers and this particular Tivo relies on a cable card.  Once I find out about this for sure, I think I will pull the trigger on this purchase...

[Matt H.]

Yes, I read a brief little snatch on-line about PROJECT RUNWAY, and it does sound like a VERY surprising episode. I'll likely get to it at some point today, especially if I have the day off.

[Laura]

Good morning!

It nearly got up to 90 yesterday and today and tomorrow will be the same. 90 in early April? What does this mean for this summer? Yikes!

Around here, it means a normal summer of 118F.

[JMK]

It is pouring down rain here, and they are predicting hurricane force winds for the coast.

[JMK]

And the downspout was of course clogged, so I just got to go out in the monsoon with the ladder and unplug it.

[JMK]

Betsy is in the hospital this morning having some minor surgery.  So I have been up since 5.  Oy.

[Matt H.]

Hope all goes well with Betsy.

[Matt H.]

Still no UPS. Looks more and more like a day off for me! Yipee!!!

[Matt H.]

Now, I guess I'll finish up some work here in the office and then head downstairs and get ready to go out on my usual Friday errands.

WBBL.

Made it through about 3/4 of the Warner Archive THE THIRD DAY.  I think I must have seen this on tv when I was a kid, because I somehow remember Arte Johnson's creepy lounge pianist (is there any other kind, LOL?).  All I can say about Percy Faith's music is:  wow!  What a great score, so full of unusual colors (don't think I've ever heard a bassoon used in a mystery-thriller score the way he does, and the string effects are incredible).  In fact, BK, if you could find stems for this and Faith's Universal release I'D RATHER BE RICH, I think it would make a great two-fer, and I have Faith connections where you could reach a bevy of fans who would snatch this up in a sconce.  (Is that right?).

And BTW since BK did not answer my trivia question yesterday (at least that I saw), I'D RATHER BE RICH features a title song by Maltby/Shire (must have been one of their first), arranged and orchestrated by Maestro Faith, who did the underscore.
