One report said four whole trains had disappeared Friday and still not been located.

I hope it turns out to be a false report.

Ok, time to start my day....first breakfast - then the store to buy everything for an irish dinner....actually I just do a boiled New England dinner, but it's about the same thing

Great parody, FJL. Her voice was as wonderful as always.

Good Morning!

I'm up, I'm up... And I just sorted some old towels, curtains(?!?), and clothes. Some are going to the textile recycling booth at the Greenmarket, and the rest are going to Housing Works.

Thank You, DR Matthew.

Thank You, DR MBarnum.

Thank You, DR JRand, my birthday twin.

DR elmore - I hope you have/had a great time at Carroll Studios. Sitzprobes are always exciting!

*Now, of course, if you had ended up at Carol Studios, well...

Re last night's mention of theater seat prices going up and up -

Just put up a parody of PRISCILLA QUEEN OF THE DESERT from the "point of view" of its lead producer BETTE MIDLER
(parody-tribute to tune of of Amanda McBroom's classic song THE ROSE)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q5CCbK-Qvoc

A little bit theater-insider-ish, but Jan Horvath sings it gorgeously. it's about 2-1/2 minutes, if you have time to watch.

*Should I forward that to Amanda McBroom?

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #68 on:** March 12, 2011, 08:36:49 AM »

And speaking of Priscilla...

There was an interesting article in the New York Times about the "Americanization" of the show - a.k.a. making it less gay.

A Broadway Makeover for ‘Priscilla’ Queens

...And I guess that explains why the show went back into a full rehearsal period here in NYC after it closed in Toronto a few months ago.

I'm up and awaiting the arrival of she of the Evil Eye.

And now I need to get my butt cheeks in high gear for a few hours.

Laters...

Seriously, Jose, I tried to reach her by email well before putting it on "Public" mode to make sure no specific lyrics offended her, but got no answer at all. I figured it's best not to write her again, i guess.

Finished my grocery shopping in plenty of time to get home before the Michigan/Ohio State tip-off. Halfway through the first half, Michigan is letting it slip away, I'm afraid...

Does she know someone in Ashland? It sure is hard to clean with this shoulder.

My brother & niece will be very disappointed. Bryan has no interest in the games. I should ask Craig if he follows them. He came home long enough to walk Yogi & will be leaving soon. Tonight I sleep in his room with Yogi & Kitty while I'm sure Sherlock will take over my spot in my own bed.

Ginny · « **Reply #76 on:** March 12, 2011, 11:46:48 AM »

Halftime - Michigan's down by 4

Jane · « **Reply #77 on:** March 12, 2011, 11:51:46 AM »

Ginny I always appreciate your game reports so I pretend to be knowledge when I email my brother.

Ginny · « **Reply #78 on:** March 12, 2011, 11:57:46 AM »

Glad to be of assistance, DR Jane!

Jane · « **Reply #79 on:** March 12, 2011, 12:34:22 PM »

Poor Yogi. He know Craig took his back pack with him, and Yogi knows what that means. I have one upset dog here.

Ginny · « **Reply #80 on:** March 12, 2011, 12:47:01 PM »

You also have an unhappy Wolverine - Michigan's down by 17, with just 2 minutes to go

If Amanda has a problem, refer her to me - we're friends.

bk · « **Reply #82 on:** March 12, 2011, 12:51:21 PM »

I'm back for but a brief moment - must hopefully go pick up some packages and an important envelope.

John G. · « **Reply #83 on:** March 12, 2011, 01:08:02 PM »

Am making flan for the first time. Just put the tray in the oven. I love the stuff, but I don't know if it's worth the effort. Won't know until tomorrow night.

FJL · « **Reply #84 on:** March 12, 2011, 01:12:28 PM »

Thanks, BK!

I'm figuring she just must get so much e-mail.

the Vixter is taking part in a A Cappella concert tonight === she is spending the day learning the songs and then the concert is tonight

vixmom · « **Reply #86 on:** March 12, 2011, 01:17:31 PM »

Tomorrow morning is pj day at church -- I am serving as assistant minister and the Vixter is a communion assistant so we are committed to wearing PJ's..... first time we are trying this --- I comfort myself with the thought that the clocks move ahead today so chances are a lot of people will miss the early service and end up at the second service

vixmom · « **Reply #87 on:** March 12, 2011, 01:18:05 PM »

well errands acalling --- see you all tomorrow

vixmom · « **Reply #88 on:** March 12, 2011, 01:20:21 PM »
