It's been a beautiful day in Manhattan, sunny and cool.

I balanced my checkbook (who even does that anymore) and got the casserole ready to bake later.

I'm listening to

Dewi Griffiths

on Radio Wales right now. The show is String of Pearls.

At 4pm

Beverley Humphreys

comes on with Showtime. I will put the casserole in the oven, listen to Beverley and then we will eat dinner. Anthony wants to watch the new Mystery on PBS this evening.

Back to work tomorrow. Ugh!

A nap would be nice but then I'll miss Dewi and Beverley so I'll stay up.

Jrand -

A COMPLETE SET OF ROLL-ALONG LUGGAGE

Yes, JR, add one more initial to yours and you have the headliner.

I believe Bear Manor is the publisher which once contacted me and offered me a contract to write a Farmer biography, but they couldn't do hardbacks, didn't want to include glossy stock for photos and most of all didn't like my idea of combining a traditional bio with my own journey to find out the truth about what happened to her.

"Bear Manor" sounds like one of DR elmore VHS tapes.

My sister, my niece, my mom, and I went to see STAR WARS when it was first released. I didn't enjoy the experience; in fact, I was bored to death. I have never had any desire to see any of the other STAR WARS' films

And, yes, Jason Robert Brown and Shoshana Bean were appearing in Indy over the past two nights at The Cabaret.

Sweeney Todd - Great footage of the first London production with Dennis Quilley

And...

Stephen Sondheim in 2010

Denis Quilley was a wonderful man. He was also the original Candide in 1958 in London. When I met him, he had stories about Hellman.

I'm stll on my Encores! orchestration so I may miss the G&S at Symphony space. I've also not heard from Jo today so there's been no Kindle aid. DR Jose, you're MR Techno - have you any Kindle experience? Perhaps we could make a date this week?

DR elmore - The Kindle is much easier to set up than you think. Have you watched the Set Up videos on Amazon? They literally walk you through the process. Just start one up and follow along. It should take no longer than 5 minutes - probably more like 2 to get it set up and certified.

Otherwise, if you'd like to meet tomorrow afternoon...

And now I need to head back into midtown to get a few more hours of practice in. I believe I got most of The Boys from Syracuse in my fingers. I just need to futz a bit more with the dance breaks since those are definitely meant for horns and not a piano.

Laters...

Shayne, the Blu of Chitty does not have foreign language tracks, at least that I can find. It's got one audio track, the 7.1 stereo. So, you must be talking about the older DVD?

No. I have the Blu Ray
I checked the audio choices before I posted.

To get to the other language choices you go to SETUP. Choose AUDIO.

The first choice is English 7.1 and if you scroll to the righ this is the order of the languages: English Stero, Spanish 5.1 Digital, Porutguese 5.1 Digital, French 5.1 DTS, German 5.1 DTS, Italian 5.1 DTS,

5.1 DT, Spanish Casetellano 5.1 DTS, and I assume Eastern European languages in mono (I think) Cestina, Polski (Polish?), Thai (Guess) and Turkish (??)

I must say Bear Manor is not really to my liking - I don't like the look of their books. No slight to Druxy, who has a good relationship with them - this is purely an aesthetic comment. They are, like many publishers today, basically self-publishing without the charge and with the use of an editor (I think I'm right about that). They don't take returns and therefore cannot get in most bookstores - that isn't even a problem anymore, however, since brick and mortar is going the way of the dodo bird. I just wish they put out a higher quality product, even as a paperback.

Sorry I didn't answer your question DR ELMORE.....no I do not have an all region DVD player.

As to your post RE:the Post Office.

My MP3 player left California on October 5 - via first class.....and there have been NO updates since then.

You let your MP3 player fly First Class? I can't even afford to fly First Class.

I don't think I've announced this here, but:

I've just signed a contract with Bear Manor Media to reprint my book, Basil Rathbone: His Life and His Films, which has been out-of-print for 35 years.

Not sure when it will be released, but my guess is either late this year or early next.

Congratulations!

Ditto!

Kevin, great news about the Lottery.

We are having Ginny's famous "tuna glop" for dinner except that I put in chicken instead of tuna.

Years ago Ginny posted a recipe for tuna noodle casserole that she called tuna glop. It's easy and tastes good so it's become a part of the Morelli/McLaughlin household menu.

Tuna casserole is one of my favorite "comfort foods." I can't remember if I ever made tuna glop.
