Well, you've read the notes, the notes were sublime (or not), and now it is time for you to post until the sublime (or not) cows come home.

Yesterday was a day. I worked all day. I hate it when that happens.

Last night, I went to a local production of "How I Learned to Drive" by Paula Vogel. I'd only heard of the play but didn't know what it was about....now I do.

It was very well done...quite powerful. The lead woman was played by Heather, who played Joyce in TAO's The Brain From Planet X. I only knew one other person in the cast (of five), but I knew most everyone in the audience (of fifteen).

We have no heat in the building although it's not terrible outside so at the moment we are OK.

They will fix the boiler as soon as the parts arrive, or so says the note on the wall in the lobby.

I watched TOY STORY 3 last night.

It is not a movie for little kids.

Good morning, all! It's weird to write "I slept late so the alarm went off at 7:15" because to me 7:15 sounds like the middle of the night. After 4 days of rising at 6:15. I did sleep later and I do feel quite refreshed this morning. So, I need to start gathering my things for Ohio and write a list of things to pack. When I arrive in Middletown, I will pick up toothpaste, mouthwash, etc. at the enormous pharmacy (CVS?) when you cross the railroad tracks.

I've got some Jerome Moross work I can take with me, and tomorrow I will do a round of laundry. I've got the Sondheim lyrics book and a couple of books on ballad gathering in the Appalachian Mountains from 1916-1950 that I will take but a good cheap novel would be fantastic as well.

Today, I have several errands to run, including a trip to my barber at Rockefeller Center and another round of NYPL research. I keep hopng, if I throw out requests for that damned missing scrapbook, someone will eventually locate it.

I need to get a haircut also. I will probably do that tomorrow morning.

I got my haircut this week.....that process probably takes longer for that to be done for you DR BEN.

MR BK - this product got me through NEVER TOO LATE when I had an irritated throat. I do not know if it is available in retail stores, but probably....health food stores or some stores out there in Los Angeleez.

Thanks to DR DtM for the AIRPORT '77 clip. I think they also added scenes with Debra Lee Scott and some guy to pad out the time.

CD - A V/S compendium with all songs produced by MR BK which I got for ninety nine cents + shppg. It says Barnes & Noble on it, so I don't know if it was to play in their stores OR for sale in their stores, there is no insert.

It is most enjoyable, I have SOME of the CD's represented, but others are just NOT available!!

Some of those old Folkways recordings of Kentucky balladeers are a real effort to appreciate: way way way too much "raw" singing!

I'm trying to find a folk song dealing with the hardships of Appalachian existence, from coal mine or rail disasters to farming on the mountains, something that will bring a bit of reality to "let's celebrate Christas- ring the bells-feast and drink-praise the Lord!" I need something that's gritty but also a beautiful and heartbreaking lament. I've found some great titles:
I Am A Poor Pilgrim of Sorrow
Conversation With Death
Kingdom Come
Last Train from Poor Mountain
Fountain Filled With Blood

Trouble is, some of the best titles aren't folksongs but songs written and copyrighted after 1924. Most of the authentic folksongs are variants of songs from the British Isles ("Barbara Allen," "Come All Ye Fair and Tender Ladies") brought over by settlers several hundred years ago.

the search continues!
