Well, you've read the notes, the notes said hello and bye bye, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're currently trying to figure out why there isn't a musical called Bye Bye Cow.

Please do, especially children of the wind - but rags would be good, too, just to see if there's any difference.

I'll do it at work because the copy machine there can make one pdf file with multiple pages. I haven't figured out how to do that at home (I can only scan one page at a time). I'll also fix a wrong note in one of the songs.

Why am I up this early? I'll tell you why - because I had a feeling that I could not shake and when I went to my pants pocket to check, it was true: This little silly thing that someone gave me about eight years ago and that I have had with me in my pocket every day since is gone, thanks to that STUPID security check last night. I am FURIOUS and I'm sure it's long lost, although I'll call this morning and give them a rather strong piece of my mind and suggest that if they don't have it they're going to replace it.

Good morning, all! In yesterday's mail I got the new biography of Jerry Orbach, and I stayed up way too late reading it. It isn't very good; the author cannot even title the photos correctly: that's Jerry as Macheath in the 1955 THREEPENNY OPERA, not as the Streetsinger.

Yesterday could have been horrendous but it ended up a nice 6-hour session, playing through the vocal score and discussing EILEEN, My friend Greg Jarrett played piano for four hours and then the last two were discussions about the recording, the Herbert recordings we've done, etc. I was quite happy with the day's events.

This afternoon, laundry and mopping the floors. Then I have work to do on this Appalachian Christmas piece. I need to see if two folksongs can be performed together.

I'd forgotten she was in POCKETFUL OF MIRACLES! I love that movie.

Thursday morning greetings! Typhoid Mary, here. Our anniversary brunch plans have been scrubbed because my brother-in-law has caught my cold. Guess maybe I shouldn't have helped my sister fix dinner the other night...

If this isn't the funniest thing (on several levels) you've read this morning, please post something better:

JODIE FOSTER DEFENDS MEL GIBSON

"I'm not defending his behavior. I'm defending the man that I know. And I know he's kind and loyal and is an incredible professional," she tells the Associated Press. "He's probably the most beloved actor of anybody I've ever worked with in the film business. And I don't say that lightly."

Foster adds that Gibson's recent struggles helped inform his performance as a depressed man who only communicates with his family through a beaver puppet he wears on his hand.

MR BK - it is a travesty that you lost something during the "search" - not sure complaining will do any good - but keep trying until you get somebody who will at least mention the call in a meeting sometime.....not someone who will forget or dismiss the conversation as soon as you hang up.

What a terrific book DR CILLA LIZ! I have heard of it, but I have never seen a copy!

As for LITTLE RICKY and the Dr Pepper box.....well, I do the same thing with jeans.

Big brother "turned in" little brother last night. Little brother had been looking at some questionable videos on YouTube. I went back and looked through them, mostly harmless despite some shocking XXX titles, but my favorite was "Breast Massage," which turned out to be an informational video for women to self-check themselves for lumps.

Bye Bye Birdie, of course

State Fair - where she and Pat Boone have some really nice chemistry, when I saw it as a youngster, I really thought they would end up together!

Our Sons - a tv movie with Julie Andrews

I Oughta Be In Pictures

I guess I started to look away when she played a sexy role in NEWSIES.....

I like her best now when she does character roles that don't depend on her SEX appeal.....if she even does those now. But she is a survivor, and she doesn't seem to be afraid of a challenge.

It's nice to see Ms Foster ("I'm not Jewish so he's never offended me and I'm not a lesbian, although I do change tires and move pianos with other butch women") defend her costar. When he starts showing worse signs of major mental disorder I wonder what she'll have to say.

Good morning! OUr office smells like gas this morning, so I called the maintenance guy and opened the windows. He things the trap on the furnace drain dried out and it's sewer gas. So he poured wated down the drain. Then he said someone else in the building smells it so he might be wrong and left. It really didn't smell like the scent added to natural gas, so I'm just going to leave the windows open for awhile and see if it goes away
