Ok, back to the salt mines

[Jrand73]

DR JMK when is your next comedy gig?

[Jrand73]

I think it is very nice of the Arena Stage to refurbish itself just for DR JOSE's conducting debut.

[George]

A very early good morning to all.

I am up to get ready to go to the airport and fly up to Montreal. I need to/want to be at the airport early. I'm about an hour away from the airport and I want to park in longterm lot.

I hope to get on line at least one a day while I'm away.

~~~Travel Vibes for DR Michael S.!!~~~

[Dan (the Man)]

I'm enjoying everyone's Mormon stories.

I think if it weren't dinner time I would have been more receptive of my visitors last night.  And I don't think it's necessarily because I'm welcoming religious discussion--it's just that right now, I'm associating Mormons with Dolly Levi, Mame Dennis, the citizens of Anatevka and the young kids on the Corny Collins Show.

I am very excited to learn that we now have a Middle Eastern restaurant in Salem called Al-Aqsa. I can't wait to try it out!!

Mikey, today is Brian D'Arcy James' birthday.

My question for ASK BK DAY is a supposition.

Do you think your career would have taken a different turn had the Whipple, Jr, Charmin campaign continued as originally planned?

I don't think there was any plan to do anything but that one commercial, so not really.  The only thing that would have taken my career in the direction I really wanted it to go would have been a hit series or if Nudie had been the hit it should have been.

We finished the transfer - made some small additional color corrections and framing things, but it all looks pretty fantastic, save for the end credits and there's simply nothing to be done about them, unfortunately, other than to try and clean some of the scratches when we're doing the cleanup.  I don't know what happened to the negative but it's pretty appalling.

For those who haven't figured it out it's Here On Earth from The Brain From Planet X.  There's a production being done in Montreal in French!  I just got the entire script and lyrics translated - so much fun to sing these in another language and whoever did it did a great job.

[bk]

And there's a production in Winnipeg opening in two weeks.  Will Jennifer go to either?  You can find both productions on Facebook.

Love that!

I always hope I'll run into ten elderly men from the U.N. 

[FJL]

Too many Mormons
Waiting and intending to preach to you
How many Mormons
Are there still to come

[Jrand73]

C'est magnifique!

I like the Winnipeg poster.

Now you can sing along...sort of.

[George]

And who knew that daughter Donna would grow up to be Shirley Temple, then turn into Alice Faye...and others??

[Jrand73]

That IS a nice poster!

[Jrand73]

I am now getting my act together and taking it to Greencastle.

[DakotaCelt]

Good Day one and all

I am still waiting for my passport

[DakotaCelt]

Winnipeg is only about a 4 hours or so from FArgo

Interesting article from the local meteorologist

[Ben]

Well, I had an exciting afternoon.

Our guest came by for a spell before heading uptown to see Sister Act. I went back to the office and began to eat an apple. Well, the apple fought back by breaking a tooth! It's not even one of the teeth that was going to be worked on by the dentist. I was able to save part of the tooth. I don't know if I swallowed some of it or threw some away when I spit out the apple (I bit, began to chew and heard and felt a crunch. Knowing apples don't crunch I suspected something was wrong). I then headed over to the NYU Dental Clinic for emergency treatment. In about an hour and 10 minutes they fitted me with a temporary crown and have re-written my treatment plan to include this little bugger. I have to be careful while eating and do no chewing with the affected tooth until the real crown is attached after 3 visits. I need a root canal, a post and core and a crown which adds about $1,200 dollars to the aforementioned treatment. Oh, well. I know it would be double if I went to a full out dentist. The treatment was good (you would never know I just lost a tooth), as painless as possible and I'm happy to have it over!

I lost a very dear friend to the Mormons several years ago.

Wow!  That's certainly an unexpected adventure.

[Ginny]

DR Ben - sorry about your dental mishap!

[Laura]

I am also sorry to hear about your dental adventure, Ben.

[elmore3003]

DR Ben, I'm sorry to hear what happened to you, but isn't the clinic wonderful?
