WISHES DR ELMORE'S DENTAL APPOINTMENT HAS GONE WELL!!

[Jane]

Where has DR Ginny gone   Ginny how much weight have you lost & are you still dropping pounds?  You look great!

[Jrand73]

Hmmmmmmmmmm.......Comcast is now working.....on all stations.....and I haven't lost the signal yet!

[Jrand73]

today we are going to go look at a house my sister from Seattle is thinking about buying - here in Indiana.

I hope it's nice.

[Ginny]

I have to judge a tequila competition this afternoon. I've judged wine and beer before, but never anything stronger. This is going to be interesting, to say the least.

It's a tough job, but someone has to do it!

DR Jane - I've been down the basement walking with Sir Elton.  After slacking off for a couple of weeks, it took a lot of effort to do my 30 minutes, but I made it.  My weight-loss numbers vary, depending on which scale I use and the time of day, but I can safely say I've lost almost 30 pounds.  I'm kind of stuck right now, but at least I didn't gain any during my travels.  Thanks for noticing!

[Cillaliz]

Congrats Ginny!

[JMK]

Perhaps DR Druxy, a PR pro, can explain why in heaven's name a tiny niche label's press contact would refuse to answer emails over the course of two months and also decide to stop providing review product for the site that is giving said niche label its widest audience and which can also provide sales data showing tens of thousands of units of said niche label's product sold.  Oy.

I'm having a blast with my handy dandy new smartphone, though like any typical geezer (technical term), I had to call Verizon last night to find out why a bunch of icons were suddenly appearing on my "home screen."  It turns out if you press an icon for too long it migrates to your home screen.  You can get rid of them by holding them down on your home screen and dragging them to the trash icon.  Who knew?  (Probably Jose). 

[Jrand73]

Great pic DR CILLA LIZ....and I am assuming you agree with the review!

The Rodgers & Hammerstein page on Facebook has a ton of photos of the OKLAHOMA! reconstruction at the North Carolina School of the Arts. I wanna see it!

That looks WONDERFUL! 

I somewhat recall the Christine Andreas/Laurence Guittard revival going along that re-creation route, but I don't remember to what extent.

The photos look great, though John Mauceri is starting to look as old as Celete Holm.

Dame John has to look good. It's a Big Ego.

Yes, I am back from the Dental Clinic and I ache from jaw to jaw. The unpleasant surprise was that  I had to pay for all four fillings in full; it is not one of the procedures that will permit installment payments. I am now $380 overdrawn, but I think my invoice check will arrive before the clinic's check lands inmy bank.

[Ginny]

Thanks, DR Cillaliz!  Elton John's music was great for my walk today.

Nice pic of you and Paul - sounds like you had a great time last night!

[John G.]

Congrats Ginny!

Ditto!

[Dan (the Man)]

I had PURLIE on an 8-track tape and loved to hear it in the car!

It's a fun score (with the exception of "Big Fish, Little Fish" which seems to go on forever.)

PURLIE was the first B'way show I attended. (My parents claimed otherwise, but it's the first one I remember.)

I'm happy the concert was a big hit. Was it sold out?

[John G.]

Now I can't get Melba Moore singing "Purlie" out of my mind...

...and she's LOUD!

LOL! (Laughing out LOUD!)   

Here's Melba Moore in PURLIE:    Was she a precursor to American Idol, I wonder?  The encore is especially thrilling, though!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0oFZV7fAbaE

I loved that video. "Purlie" seemed like it played forever in the early days of cable. Is the whole show available on DVD?

[John G.]

To answer my own question: Amazon has a used videotape of "Purlie" for $207. No DVD.

[Ron Pulliam]

Back from the urologist.  My 80-year-old doctor is back after having had a heart attack in November 2010.  He looks good if a bit "preserved".

Since I had some complaints, he "went in" with rubber gloves and Surgilube.  He was busy back there for what seemed a long time, but probably only 45-55 seconds.  He said the good news was that he felt no nodules.  The "other" news was that the prostate seems a bit inflamed to him.   So...antibiotics for a week or so and then more PSA tests in June and July.

Sigh.

[Laura]

Ron Pulliam, I hope the antibiotics does the trick and that's all you need.

[FJL]

Healthy prognosis vibes to dear DR Ron P.

Question for BK...or anybody else who knows the answer:

Where can you buy individual sheet music for older OOP songs?

Preferably in a pdf format.

It seems that, in my move to Austin, I've misplaced all of the sheet music needed for my 1-person Maurice Chevalier play.

I'm going over to my storage place in a little while to see if they're buried somewhere in there, but failing that...I've got to get new copies.

Some of the stuff will be easy to replace.  In fact, I probably have them in some books that I know are in the storage space.  But, several of the tunes, particularly the ones from the early Paramount movies (e.g. "What Would You Do?) are going to be difficult.

Suggestions?

Thanks.

I'm up, it's gonna be another hot day and I'll do a jog soon.

DR DRUXY you might try here.

Thanks for the links.

The good news is that, after digging through my storage space for over an hour...and pulling my back out...I found the stuff.

They were stuck inside a book inside a sealed box along with a bunch of other sheets of paper.


 

[Dan (the Man)]

To answer my own question: Amazon has a used videotape of "Purlie" for $207. No DVD.

I think I have it on video, DR John G.  I'll check when I get home tonight.

Thank you.  I will keep this and the links send by JRand on file.

But, thankfully, I found my originals.

1. I would have to know the name of the label in order to comment without speculating.  [Send me a private e-mail on that, if you prefer.]

2. Perhaps they've got a new person/company handling press for them, and he/she is making changes.  [After many years, Bender, Helper Impact no longer represents Fox.]

3.  Perhaps they're cutting expenses.  [Both Paramount and Universal cut their review lists 1-2 years ago.]
