No need to tell you who the clown in the middle is, I suppose.  If there's a camera around, he was always there.

He was perhaps under the impression that the name of the show was HELLO, CORNELIUS!

Sorry about the loss of your friend, DR JRand...

[Dan (the Man)]

Bon Voyage, DR Cillaliz!

Our next show release is from the early 1960s and if anyone was paying attention to the notes in the last few weeks you'd basically know what it was - or who the songwriter was.

Wouldn't It Be Great If It Was ' A THURBER CARNIVAL"

And It Might Just Be That!

[Jrand73]

I think DR ARNOLDMBROCKMAN is on the right track.

Thanks, DR DtM.

I don't know exactly how the following will be received by members of this forum.  I expect some will find it hilarious, and others will find it inflammatory.  Most everyone will remark at it being a bit profane.

But, it's called Broadway Rhythm No. 1 and it has its point-of-view!

Watch with caution!

Question for BK:  what are two or three of your favorite television entertainment specials from the past?

So many that I can't think of any.  Isn't that always the way?  Ethel and Mary comes to mind.

Thurber is not a songwriter

Back from the McGlinnventory and Toyland! I am so looking forward to a blizzard. I wish there were one tomorrow.

I'm sorry to hear about your friend, DR JRand59. I have to run out to the bank and then get to work on the Loesser  revisions.

I would, of course, do A Thurber Carnival in a heartbeat.  But it will probably end up on Arkiv as a CDR or download - pity that.

Definition-wise, this doesn't work.  But it's all that goes through my head with the word of the day!

When you tell a story
Amorous or gory
You can tell it best if you absquatulate

Suppose the mighty Sinbad
Meets a Djinn who's been bad
They can guess the rest if you absquatulate

A tongue is a tongue
And a lung is a lung
In a tale you can shout or sing
Without the gesture? Nothing!

Should Scheherazade
Undulate her body
That can be expressed if you gest...
Can be assessed if you gest...
She'll be undressed if you absquatulate

Thanks for the birthday wishes!  It's the big 3-1 & I have the birthday blues. Never happened before! 
You all can laugh at that because I'm so young & theoretically shouldn't have them, but I do.

On the bright side, I'm heading to Yosemite to spend the day & then watch the meteor showers from Glacier Point.

Happy Birthday! Hope you have a fun day.

Remember all the physics tutoring that was taking place around our dining room table this summer?  Well, DN(and goddaughter) Lauren just texted me that she got a C in the course.  She and her tutor (DS Rob) are quite pleased!

What luck. The plane from Omaha is the plane to Toronto. I will definitely make my flight. Laters.

Great news and sort of funny.

My Lord what a weird night.  I got in bed at twelve-thirty.  I fell asleep at two, woke up at three-thirty, fell asleep at four.  At 8:56 the alarm went off and I don't mean the radio/alarm I mean the house alarm.  That is a first (and I hope last).  I was so tired and so disoriented I didn't know what was happening.  I finally realized where the sound was coming from (the alarm center in the kitchen).  Once there and once my eyes focused, the alarm control panel read PH1.  I had no idea what that meant and quickly checked all the doors and windows all of which were fine.  I found my instruction sheet, entered my code plus "enter" and it stopped.  Then I called the security company and asked what that was about.  Apparently from 8:56 to 8:57 there was an "interruption" in the phone line, i.e. the phone line went down for less than a minute - that causes the alarm to go and is what "PH" means.  I asked her what would have happened if the line hadn't come right back up - she said the alarm would have just kept ringing.  That's not good, but if it should ever happen again I can call and have them power down the system.

But what happens if you're not home. Does it just ring and ring and disrupt the whole street?

Condolences to DR Jrand. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Well, I actually saw and loved both SIDE SHOW and RENT.

That video was interesting. I will give it that much.

Just did my 7-minute walk and found it goes much faster with The University of Michigan Marching Band as accompaniment.

Well my friend Vickie's mother passed away early Monday morning.  She had been in hospice for almost a year. A vibrant and talented woman named Adeline Knoy......the "K" is pronounced.....Ka-Noy.

She was a teacher at Cloverdale Elementary School for decades - the learning center there is named for her.

She was a member of the board of directors at PCPH for many years - played Bloody Mary twice, played Dolly Levi, AND Mame Dennis.  I directed her as Rosemary in a production of PICNIC and we spent many hours in the ensembles of several shows.

Tomorrow is her service, my guess is, once again, for one last time, she will fill the house. 

JRand, my condolences to you and to Vicki and her family.

I'm off to do whatever it is I do. 

[Dan (the Man)]

The new release probably isn't DONNYBROOK!

(The "!" is part of the title--I'm not making an exclamation...)

LOL--it's like the person who wrote this was living in my head and knows all my thoughts!

[Dan (the Man)]

Twitter seems to strongly suggest I follow this guy even though he's only tweeted there twice a year ago:

I wish it was DONNYBROOK.

Art Lund used to be a publicity client.

BK, I read all of your notes...I just don't keep track of them.

Apparently so - although this particular alarm (for a phone problem) can't really be heard outside the house.

Back from a really nice and productive lunch.

I believe the rest o' the day is mine all mine.  At around four I'll do my jog.  I had a chicken salad sandwich and onion rings.  Excellent.
