Well, you've read the notes, the notes spoke of eight dead rats, and now it is time for you to post until the eight living cows come home.

Good morning.  Looks like I'm catching the crud that's going around.  One of those cough in the night kind of things.   Last night Boo jumped up on the bed and came up to cuddle with me after a coughing spell.  She hasn't done that since we got Ricky

I did sleep with the window open a crack and opened the window downstairs for the cats when I got up this morning.  I'll call today to schedule the new water heater for Friday.

Good morning, all! I slept later than I meant to, but I did. After yesterday's gray rainy day, today looks quite sunny and bright. I like that.

This is a work day; I've got Herbert notes from the NYPL to be transferred to my files, spoken dialogue to locate for the two EILEEN finales, and a seach for several types of mountain songs. I still have the books I removed from Toyland to be put away.

DR cillaliz, right after I moved to New York, my former Office Outfitters coworker Ollie Lige and his wife Minnie were killed by carbon monoxide in their home, I still miss them. I'm glad you discovered this problem in time.

DR Ginny, I'm not sure exactly what you were asking about the Duchess' entertainment; are you posting that in the opera, there was a guest appearance by the band? It's not an uncommon occurrence. FLEDERMAUS New Year's Eve performances for years have thrown guest artists into the party scene as antertainers.

TOD: Outside of AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 DAYS, I can't think of a single David Niven film.

DR JRand - From last night - As for a recording of Oklahoma!, I'd have to go with DR elmore's choice of the revival cast with Christine Andreas. Otherwise, I guess I grew up with the movie soundtrack.

Question for Ask BK Day...

If you were asked to come into audition for a show...

What would your uptempo song be?

Your ballad?

Monologue?

Thursday morning greetings!

...DR Ginny, I'm not sure exactly what you were asking about the Duchess' entertainment; are you posting that in the opera, there was a guest appearance by the band? It's not an uncommon occurrence. FLEDERMAUS New Year's Eve performances for years have thrown guest artists into the party scene as antertainers.
...

DR Elmore, that's exactly what I was asking - thank you!  And, yes, the WPAFB brass quintet made a guest appearance.  They should get quite an ovation when the house is full.

Read thru was most enjoyable....for the most part....except too many stupid young kids running around and making noise and listening to no one....who will add NOTHING to the show....

And there is NO REASON to correct the grammar in the script, idiots......if it says "Leave me go...."  you don't have to say instead "Let me go...."

Thanks and thanks to all for the vibes, support and prayers. I haven't heard since yesterday, so I would assume he's stable.

It is a Thursday morning.
I don't think I know the calorie count of any dish at any restaurant.
How many calories are the Chicken and Biscuits at Cheesecake Factory (not that it really matters when that's what I'm thinking of having)?
