Three!

[Laura]

The Monarch Scientist has come and gone.

[elmore3003]

It's been a long day but  a very good one. Still, I am very happy to be home.

I accomplished most of what I needed to do at the McGlinnventory. I needed to pull libretti for the upcoming auction. I found several we hadn't pulled before, but not EILEEN, which is probably at the bottom of a drawer containing Herbert music.

Then I went to Toyland where I met my friend Curtis, who survived touring with Kevin Spacey, and we scanned the full scores for ROBERTA, talked through the logistics of the project and parted. After six months all over the globe, he's going to travel to see his brother's new child and I forgot to ask if his mother is traveling with him. He's back next Wednesday, and then we'll finish up the ROBERTA scores. At 3:30, genug was definitely enough, and I headed home.

That could be DR JMK

Still no People in the Picture.  Of course those in far off Rangoon received theirs days ago.

DR JMK I am sure that DR MBARNUM will be happy to hear that K Gordon Murray's SANTA CLAUS is on DVD....he may already have it.

However it will never reach the cinematic glory of his LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD AND THE MONSTERS....in ColorScope.

And don't forget, "Santa Claus Conquers the Martians."

I've seen Penny wear nice clothes from Costco.  I don't like buying anything without trying it on, and there aren't any mirrors there. 

Ours has mirrors but no changing rooms. But you are allowed to give anything back even bathing suits. For the most part i can try things on (i've gotten a jacket there). Or if it's a sweater i can pull it over my tshirt.  Pants is very hard (one time i wore a skirt and tried it on that way. For pjs (which i get there every year) i wear stretch pants and just make sure they can fit over them.

Our Costco does often have special vendors that come in just to sell a certain line for a week or two. Those things are usually more expensive than Costco's regular stuff.

More expensive, perhaps; but not nearly as practical as an 8 quart jar of maraschino cherries.

DR John G. YUM!!!

They did have egg in them as a binder.

But here's the recipe:

Would Egg Beaters work as a binder?

Maybe you have a music-loving mail person who wants to copy your cd's before they are delivered.

But of course. That's where crab rangoon came from, so they are special.

That photo yesterday was very depressing.  Barbara Eden was still very lovely at age sixty.  You would think that would have been enough.  Now, you can't even tell that it is her.

Yes.

[John G.]

How are you doing, TCB? Are those maraschino cherries for old fashioneds, by any chance?

[TCB]

Jrand, was this the Barbara Eden album?

[Druxy]

TOD - I, too, loved MIDNIGHT IN PARIS, but had trouble with Owen Wilson as the romantic lead.  I've been trying to think of someone I'd rather see in the part, but I don't know enough 40-ish actors.  Nathan Fillion, maybe?  We saw the movie in the theater while preparing for our trip to Paris and again on the plane when we returned.

I'm not an Owen Wilson fan either, but unlike actors who have played "the Woody Allen role" in other Allen pictures, he seems to have captured the "Allen rhythm" in his delivery of the lines.  For this reason alone, Allen will probably use him again.

Ditto!

I'll say it again:

The center of London was heaving with Christmas shoppers. Met Steve for the weekly meal and drink and we managed to find somewhere not  too crowded. I had ham, eggs and chips which was delicious.

[TCB]

I guess I have to put the word out that I don't want any calls before ten for the next two weeks - and yes, I'm up.

Good idea, Bruce.  And I will call you every morning at eight and remind you.

[TCB]

And I guess I should start getting ready for today's "condensed" presentations of MY FAIR LADY. We'll be taking the show on the road to Westminster Canterbury, which is an assisted living/retirement community here in Richmond. In fact, the actress playing Mrs. Higgins is a resident there. They have a nice auditorium there and two pianos (I hope), and we will be presenting a "greatest hits" one hour version of the show. They will also be providing us with dinner between shows, which, if the food quality has not gone down since the last time I ate there, should be quite delicious. The complex not only has the standard food service kitchens and dining halls, but it also has its own restaurant.

Prunes for dessert?

[Jrand73]

Yes DR TCB - the very album.

[Jrand73]

Dot Records - Where the Stars Are

Or rather where stars get their start before they run away and old stars come on the way to Collector's Shows.

[TCB]

DR JMK - Is this what one of your solo gigs looks like?

That was a trip.

[Jrand73]

Lets talk about favorite Record Label Art.....

T.O.D.


I am not a huge Woody Allen fan.
