As I suspected, the gridiron cake has turned up on Facebook - hope this doesn't put us in widescreen:

The latest installment of OUTSIDE THE BOX strikes a chord here because the movie in question is the only one that I remember really freaking Richard out.  Alet and Andy are perfect!

Did you get to see this new PBS broadcast? If not, try to tape it when it's broadcast in Indianapolis.

My packages are ready to be mailed, so I am quite happy at the moment. I just caught a wonderful special on Actors Equity and the AIDS crisis; nice interviews wth Judith Light, Denis O'Hare, Billy Porter, Ann Harada, Tom Viola, Marc Kudisch, Kathleen Chalfont, and Jerry Mitchell, with footage from Broadway Bares, the Gyspy of the Year, and the Easter Bonnet competition.

I suppose if there were only one movie that freaked my husband out I would like it to be this one. ;)

They were perfect.

That's pretty cool, Jane!  In a couple of the wide shots, it looks like that there are more people performing than watching. ;)

The reason why I've been absent lately excuse......

I've been having laptop problems. I have 9 bad sectors (according to the guy at the Genius Bar at the Apple Store).

I went to back up my hard drive and found out that my backup  disc drive somehow got damage and now longer worked.

So I went out a bought a Dream Machine by Apple (which is not exactly cheap and the money I spent would have gone towards Christmas Gifts for family and friends) and spent three and half days backing up my hardrive. (My laptop would shutdown after three hours if I didn't use it. Finally figured that out and disabled it.)

I didn't go on line during the backup process for fear of losing anything else or screwing up the backup

One of the bad sectors holds almost all my music from my ITunes. That was almost 20,000 tracks. Most upsetting for me was the over 300 songs (many of them rare and very difficult to find) that I collected for my Academy Award winning song collection these past two years. I got really really upset over that. I really didn't care about the other music.

I had planned to give a CD of my Christmas Mix as gift this year, but that's not going to happen.

Luckily #1:
Finally I remembered I had all the songs on my IPod and had upload  them to my IPod.
The good news is that any song I downloaded from ITunes is recoverable. I also found some other songs in folders that were somehow not save in the ITunes music folder. These included songs I had downloaded from Amazon.

That leaves over 19,000 songs I am going to upload again.

Luckily #2 I still had all my Cd's. I had been cataloging them as I was planning to sell off my collection of Cast Albums, Broadway/Film related and vocal albums as one package on Ebay. I will be holding off on that.

Luckily #3 I had backed up all my documents and photos on "thumb drives" as I was trying to free up my hard drive because I thought it would make things going faster; not knowing I had bad sectors that was causing my problems.

After the New Year I will take it into Best Buy and see if my extended warranty will cover the replacement of the hard drive. I'm will to pay any difference to get a larger drive. (If they will do that).

So that's my sad story. :-)

Back from hearing mixes.  Fantastic!  What a release this will be - complete for the first time and with it a rejected score by a well-known B'way composer.

I believe I have a review copy of THE LITTLE MERMAID waiting for me in a rather large to-do stack.

And I'm almost positive I reviewed the SF NUTCRACKER years ago when it was first released.

We broke out of the box fast today, but what happened?

Just back from the church children's Christmas pageant, which went much better than I thought it would. The little dears actually behaved themselves and I didn't have inaugurate a new Christmas sacrifice.

We had a 15-piece children's orchestra, which was great. We have a wonderful tuba player, tiny wisp of a girl, who seems to get lost in her horn. Then these magnificent growling, Kurt Weill-style sounds come belching forth.

Also from yesterday:

I was browsing eBay last night and was shocked to see how much some of our stuff is going for - signed Chitty went for seventy or eighty bucks last week.

And HERE is one that's listed at $99.99...to start! :o

It's ending this afternoon, but I don't think that it'll get any bids.


I guess you will just have to lower your price, George.

Enjoyed the new Outside the Box!   I was thinking that Andy Taylor must hear a lot of jokes about his name.

Not as many as his wife, Opie.

Good morning, all! I slept really late and I am pondering the events of the day. At noon, I must be at Staples as as soon as they open to pick up storage boxes iy's impossible to move around this apartment without stumbling over piles of libretti and full scores for THE RED MILL, ROBERTA, and DEAREST ENEMY. I may need to purchase shipping envelopes as well, so my next project this morning is to group tgether everything I will be shipping on Tuesday morning and see what I will need to buy.

At 12:30 I'm taping the Lincoln Center broadcast of NUTCRACKER, and the rest of my day will be spent on building an orchestra score from scratch for the ROBERTA Act One Fashion Show.

I enjoyed the new OTB, but I kept thinking of Alet as Yoni and her big hair in THE BRAIN FROM PLANET X. I'm seeing Andy in ONCE on Wednesday, and I really look forward to it. He does look a bit like Michael Douglas!


I have a Playbill for THE PRODUCERS in Boston that is signed by Brad Oscar and Andy Taylor!

Well, I should head for church, I guess. Today is the children's nativity, since they think no one will come next week. Sigh. At least we found the costumes; last year we didn't have any.



A nude children's nativity?
