Tuesday morning greetings!  A thunderstorm was my alarm clock this morning and now it's just raining.

Well, it snowed in her hometown yesterday.  Rob was really surprised when he arrived home to sunshine and temps in the 70s.

Good morning, all! My day is looking to be an unpleasant one:
     1. I have several terse and tense communications to be accomplished today, none of which I look forward to. 
     2. The search for the missing Victor Herbert song continues and I guess another trip to the Library of Congress is in  my very near future. Much as I like the trips, they cost money I do not have given my current job situation, even for reimbursement later.
     3.  I need to contact Ohio Light Opera, and I am not looking forward to any of it.

Damnation!

TOD:

This is a hard one, since even the minor songs from Coleman's better scores are incredibly catchy.  But if I must choose:

Deep, Down Inside
I Got Your Number
Big Spender
There's Got To Be Something Better Than This
Nobody Does It Like Me
Hey There, Good Times
Thank God I'm Old
I Like Your Style

TOD: This is difficult, as DtM says. I love most every note of Cy Coleman's. Even did a paper on him in college. And then rewrote it for another class.

The whole score for On the 20th Century, especially the overture
Witchcraft
When in Rome
The Best is Yet to Come
Hey, Look Me Over
On the Other Side of the Tracks
The Truth
Big Spender
Rhythm of Life
Where Am I Going?
My Personal Property
The Late, Great State of New York
Welcome to Holiday Inn
Ride Out the Storm
Spanglish
It's Not Where You Start
Join the Circus
The Colors of My Life
Hey There, Good Times
Someone Wonderful I Missed
Lovers on Christmas Eve
My Body
Too Old for the Oldest Profession

It's too early to remember any more, like the songs on "Unsung Broadway" from that divorce court musical.

Reading about DR Ginny's birth certificate issues.

I find it extremely odd that the person at the passport office did not tell you that your birth certificate was not acceptable. I would contact the passport office.

It does seem to happen a lot that people need new proper birth certificates (i did too). But for the passport office not to tell you... well that is not fair to you. That person made a mistake.

One of my mom's friends came to the sedar yesterday.He is a really good cook. He made 2 dishes that were excellent (potato latkes and smoked meat). And better yet he left me will all the leftover smoked meat brisket. It was so good. I told him he's my  new best friend.

Can't wait to eat it again!

And my aunt made some really good dishes too.

She left me with a cold brisket (love that). And some tsimmis (sp?). Yum.

And I have matzah ball soup.
