I tried to see Kevin Spirtas in concert tonght. He was doing the show that bk directed. I wasn't familar with the concert hall and tried to put the address into my gps, but the street for the concert hall was not recognized. I was not near a computer to try mapquest. This was the firs tine that this happened to me

Back from the birthday dinner at Ruth's Chris. Our work session was really fun - I have to say that working with this kid is more fun than I can tell you - and I heard her sing the song I wrote for her opening number and she's great. We lowered the key a half-step so it sits better in her voice. Ruth's Chris was amazing as always and I'm really glad I did a two and a half mile jog today. I had the New York, a lettuce wedge with thousand island dressing, and a few bites of several different vegetable side dishes. But the steak was the thing and it was brilliant.

All you Titanic fanatics must watch pisode One of DOWNTON ABBEY! I was hooked within the first ten minutes, And there are five+ hours to go? What will happen? Who's watched this besides DR John G?

What is DOWNTOWN ABBEY?

A BBC series, similar to UPSTAIRS DOWNSTAIRS, writtien by the writer of GOSFORD PARK. It's quite wonderful. It begins the morning after the Titanic sank.

I think Dan the Man was the one who turned me on to the series. Viva Maggie Smith.

I can now state definitively why Leslie Uggams could not remember the lyric to "June is Bustin' Out All Over". She was still experiencing Post Traumatic Stress Disorder from this film:

Here's a 15-minute clip of scenes from the original "On a Clear Day ...," proof that Barbara Harris will never have an equal.

John, I believe you asked about my infamous Uncle Charlie the other day. My *other* infamous Uncle, the convicted Soviet spy (no, I'm not joking), rented to Barbara for many, many years. I've told this before but before you were here--when he died and we went back to NYC to close out his estate, we found a locked cabinet that we assumed had rent checks or some valuables in it. When we got it open, out poured literally hundreds of press photos of Barbara, many of them signed. It was truly bizarre.

I had a great uncle in Germany who was a fanatic about Mussolini. He used to make pilgrimages to Benito's widow and sons. They found as deranged as the rest of us did. But he would not be moved in his admiration of the man.

The new book is already up at amazon and barnesandnoble.com.

I don't think I knew that, Jrand
