DR JOHNG - that's a LOT of money.

Yes DR MBARNUM - I would suggest nice trousers for the matinee.....
And who's going to buy him those damned long pants? Sorry, MBarnum, the Jerry Herman in me just took over.

DR John G - Um, DR MBarnum will most likely ask, "Jerry 'who'? Was he the cute extra in the background of the drag race scene in "I Married A Hot Rodder"?"

Margaritas are good with breakfast. Just sayin'.

Especially when they're made with fresh squeezed lime juice. Great source of Vitamin C!

OK.. The "trial" is wrapping. Be back...

Back from the show - slow today, but somehow I had more fun. I sold a few books, no Blu and Rays and a few photographs. I'm about to go join Cindy and writer Bo Kapprell in the restaurant. I had really nice chats with Diane Baker, Millie Perkins (so sweet), Barry Bostwick, and Henry Winkler. That alone made it a fun day, but I met some nice folks, too.

Cable guy is gone and all is connected and working. However, I now have found that my new DVD recorder will not record from channels that have now started copy protecting their movies/tv shows...for instance Encore Westerns.

Evidently, DVD recorders made before 2006, which my old one was, were able to by pass the copy protection that cable stations use...new machines do not bypass this...I am beyond unhappy. My DVR is FULL of stuff recorded off of Encore Westerns and now I cannot burn them to DVD like I could with my old machine....so getting a new DVD recorder was rather pointless. Hopefully Turner Classic Movies is not using the copy protection.

Saturday's service in which Holy Nativity will be designated our diocesan pro-cathedral, making Richard the Dean.

I'm not familiar with this. Is it a special honor for Richard?

Hello, everyone.

TCB, I'm so sorry to hear your surgeon's visit went so badly. I really hoped you'd be getting some relief soon. It angers me the way patients are treated sometimes, too. There is just no excuse for it. I hope relief is coming soon.

Jeanne · « **Reply #101 on:** October 02, 2011, 01:55:41 PM »

Sorry to hear about your former neighbor, Jane. My sympathies.

JRand, I hope you have your new credit card in hand VERY soon. What a bummer!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Excellent Travel Vibes & Xylophones for BK! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I've moved some furniture around, and I'm ready to begin some prep work on ROBERTA, a 1933 musical comedy by Messrs Otto Harbach amd Jerome Kern.
You're doing the original, not with the movie interpolations, like "Lovely to Look At"? And is it "Roberta" or "Gowns by Roberta"? I have a divinely deco designed piece of piano music for "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes" from the original production hanging on my wall and it just says "Roberta," but I've heard others swear the title had the "Gowns by ..."

The original title of the show that opened out of town was "Gowns by Roberta," which is the title of the Alice Duer Miller novel that the musical was based on. By the time it opened in New York, it had changed directors and title. The early Russell Bennett scores have the "Gowns by Roberta" title, and the alterations have "Roberta." There are three Appendix numbers: "Lovely To Look At" and "I Won't Dance," added to the film, and "Armful of Trouble," cut from the show, although the melody appears in the underscoring several times. I'm taking the novel with me to DC

I never read the book. Should I? I like the movie.

Jose, I can't believe that OKLAHOMA'S run is over! That's because I can't believe it's Oct 2. I've enjoyed hearing your stories and I hope you have a great closing night. Travel vibes too for your trip home.

TCB · « **Reply #105 on:** October 02, 2011, 02:04:32 PM »

BK, will the 100th CD release be marked as the 100th?

Jeanne · « **Reply #106 on:** October 02, 2011, 02:06:01 PM »

JohnG, I'm actually surprised you can buy a water heater for $377. The last time I priced one it was over $900. Apparently, they have been redesigned and are now much safer--but more costly, too. Maybe this is one of those "get ya in the door" promotions with an unrealistically low price, but lots of add-on charges? I hope this is soon behind you.

Jeanne · « **Reply #107 on:** October 02, 2011, 02:07:14 PM »

Glad BK has enjoyed the Chicago show. Did you really have to fly to Chicago to meet with Cindy?

Jeanne · « **Reply #108 on:** October 02, 2011, 02:08:33 PM »

Good morning, all! I slept lste, much later than I had intended, but I blame it on the meds: yesterday morning, in a fit of mental distraction I tok my evening meds, so around 6 pm last night I took the morning ones, one of which is hydrochlorothiazide, for high blood pressure and water retention. As a result I was up half of the night running to the bathroom. Oy!

I have had to stop taking my hydrochlorothiazide, because this imaginary (in my head) spinal stenosis has caused me to have bladder control problems. The restroom at work is on the other side of the office. And wetting my pants at work is not something I wish to do.

For DR Jose:

My MIL's family moved to Oklahoma when the land was opened for settlement. These are DR Sandra's great-grandparents. The baby is Great Aunt Naomi, who was born in 1900. (The boy is a cousin -- my MIL doesn't know who.)

Last night I watched the 1964 B movie RAIDERS FROM BENEATH THE SEA.

It was an interesting movie, but not nearly as exciting as the poster would suggest...

What about the bedroom scene?

Wow - Charles Grodin can suck the life out of any scene he is in.....doing it right now on THE IRON HORSE on Antenna TV.

I thought Charles Grodin and Dyan Cannon were hysterical in HEAVEN CAN WAIT.

I started packing for Los Angeles. Trying to decide if I should take a pair of slacks to wear to the play. It is at the East West Theatre and I don't know how dressy it normally is for a matinee.

How about a kimono?

I'm sure the stress of your "imaginary" condition isn't helping your blood pressure. I looked up the "imaginary" condition & didn't really find too many comments that it is in one's head. Were you told your current problem could be a side effect of the surgeries? They were so long ago it is difficult you would suddenly imagine these problems.

CONTINUED VIBES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
