DR Elmore - when my eyes are dilated I usually take a nap to sleep it off.

I can't sleep in daylight, so I'm happier complaining.

Whew! You can't buy a can of paint off the shelf anymore - you give the man - if you can find him - your color chip and he will mix it for you.

NOW - I know this is NOT NEWS to the educated hoi polloi here at HHW.....but I haven't bought paint since the 20th Century, so I really didn't know that.

What if you want white paint?

DR Cillaliz (or anybody else who watched), what did you think of last night's DANCING WITH THE STARS?

I was very impressed with: Karate Kid, Kirstie Alley and that Disney girl Chelsea. I"m not sure who my fav will be. But I have a feeling it might be Karina and Karate Kid.

I also like Dmitry a lot. So I may cheer for him and Petra.

WHITE CHRISTMAS

I recall that it wasn't very good, but I wouldn't mind again seeing the Mia Farrow PETER PAN that Danny Kaye did back in the 70s.

Everytime I see the name Mr. Uppity, I think of the song "Mr. Monotony".

It looks as if my friend Chase Brock, Rob Berman's partner, may be the new SPIDERMAN choreographer. Chase has been a huge defendent of the show from Day One.

They're predicting snow tomorrow, which seems to be shocking folk. I remember in 1984 or 1985 a huge blizzard early in April. I had a meeting scheduled at the Liederkranz Club on 5th Avenue and it took forever to get there, between the slow traffic and the walk through gigantic drifts of snow. When I got to the Club, I found it closed and the meeting cancelled. I was not amused.

I'm sure that's entirel

Good morning, all! I have two doctors' appointments this morning with a dermatologist and my ophthalmalogist, both at the HIP facility on 22nd Street and 5th Avenue. I hope it goes smoothly. I slept well until 4am, when the new tenant arrived home, created much noise for a couple of hours and disturbed my sleep pattern.

BK, perhaps this Mr Uppity dislikes you as much as you dislike him and snubs you because he prefers not to deal with you? That's why the lady is a tramp.

TOD:
The Court Jester
Hans Christian Andersen

I'm sure that's entirely possible, although why would be a question, since I've never done anything to the fellow other than speak to him a couple of times.

Mr. Uppity has fooled many people most of the time, but in LA it's not hard to do.

First it was lost and nobody had it because they gave it to me, but I knew I didn't have it....but they didn't have it they gave it to me....but I knew I didn't have it.

Then they found it where they put it.

Also, DR George, here the books only go in the system when the library actually gets them. I know some libraries have their books in the system as soon as they are ordered.

If the books went into the system as soon as they were ordered I would be able to see if there was a problem in advance. As it is now I can only see there is a problem once the books have already gone out to people.

If the books went into the system as soon as they were ordered, there wouldn't be a problem! We've been doing this for YEARS so things like this don't happen...your library really needs to get with the times.

Oy! This job I walked out of - or I thought I did - keeps trying to drag me back and I am pretty sure I don't want to go back to it. Gertrude Stein said, when you get there, there's no there there.

TOD:

Movies: The Court Jester. I would like to see "Me and the Colonel" but I've never been able to get my hands on a copy.

Songs: "Let's Not Talk About Love" and "Farming" from "Let's Face It." The latter includes a great Cole Porter bit:

Don't inquire of Georgie Raft
Why his cow has never calfed.
Georgie's bull is beautiful
But he's gay.

I like the Cole Porter sung by Mr Kaye that goes:

Let's talk of Lamarr, that Hedy so fair;
Why does she let Joan Bennett wear all her old hair?

Well, honey, I suspect you all
Of being intellectual

I'm back from various and sundried errands and whatnot, some banking, lunch at Islands (yummilicious), picking up a couple of packages, and am now just about through listening to the redone Carnival tracks - he's fixed most of the sibilance problems - some are still there but much less problematic for me. So, I'll approve and off it will go.

But didn't he leave Indiana for awhile? I know he's buried there, but he was dead at that point.
