"Women on the Verge ..." is closing and no mention of a cast album? There are a couple of other shows in the city also without cast albums ("Elf" and something off-Broadway I can't remember). I thought for sure that Sherie's home company would record "Women ..." Guess not.

Sherie's home company doesn't pay for anything - the producers pay and hand it to them for a distribution fee - that's how it's done these days.  I think Lincoln Center has probably dropped enough money on this show and there is no upside to spending another $300,000.

Apparently, if I'm reading correctly, Thom died from complications from the surgery he posted about in September.

Now I think I'll do a few little things, then settle down to watch something called The American.  Was this movie a hit?

TCB, what's the latest - did you fill out the forms?  If you put that money into a machine, then it has to be there and they cannot screw around like this.


The forms were completed by 6:00 a.m., and sent to my credit union; and at 9:00 she forwarded the paper work to the accounting department.  I just talked to her and she said that had sent another e-mail to Accounting and advised them about my concerns about bounced checks.  So, we shall see.

It was a beautiful day here in Phoenix. Nice blue sky with temps in the mid-60s. They say a storm from the Pacific is headed our way, bringing lots of rain and freezing temperatures for the rest of the week. You'd never know it today.

Our weather report was heat and cold and rain and snow and ice and wind...not all at the same time but all happening in the next three days.....of course "heat" is relative.  Nearly 40 degrees

DanThe Man - I hope you're OK with how this came out.  I sent your hysterical post - with your screen name on it of course - to the Times comment box re the snow storm

As of now, it's here, with full attribution to BlueSkyFox of course:

Very cool!  Thanks very much, DR FJL!

Work was productive today, but really hard to get back into the swing of things.  I was able to finish up a couple cases and a very difficult client hired a new attorney (yeah)!  He's on his 10th DWI arrest and can't figure out why he has to go to prison.

Well, Ricky put his nose somewhere it didn't belong....he has a scratch on it.  doesn't look too bad, but I'm keeping an eye on it.  He and Boo now chase each other around.  I think she's training him.  He actually sat back and let her have a turn playing today!

You can get around in Manhattan though the cross-street corners have not been plowed. We had to go to the post office today (which was open) and then we went to Trader Joe's for some food. The Avenues and side streets are all plowed but as I said the corner cross streets are still full of snow. You have to walk in the street to cross. It's a little inconvenient but it's supposed to be in the 40s in a couple of days so it will melt off and we will be back to full streets soon (lots of slush though).

Sad to hear about Thom.

If he keeps it up, I'll post it soon.  He's either going 100 MPH or stopped and sleeping

I got a giggle when I looked at the TV grid and saw that they didn't bother to change it to "Tuesday Night Football". ;)

Sad news today - our occasional (59 posts) dear reader Thom Moore has passed away at 68.  He was a great guy.

I am very saddened to read this.  I was looking forward to his return and continuing our discussion on local Toy, Birmingham & Bloomfield, Michigan spots we have in common.

I thought he was recovering from hip surgery.  ???
