DR FJL that actress was great as Ann Landers in that clip.....just the way I remember her on her television appearances.  We had Dear Abby in our local newspapers.....but they were nearly the same.....I think they were twins.

I'm back from Encores! I proofread the Overture and God knows what scores my son Joshie will have for me tomorrow. Now I have to run to the bank and make a deposit.

DR DougR, great news about retrieving the photos.

...And then I hightailed it on out of here back to Stella's to have lunch with Liz and Gary. Liz and Gary are former professors at VCU - they retired last year. Liz is a costume designer and Gary is a director, and they're both like second parents to me. It was great catching up with them. And Liz was soooo happy to find that Stella was back in the kitchen making her Brunswick Stew. If things were going crazy in the costume shop at school, Liz would walk the block and a half to Stella's original location, order a bowl of soup, and start to feel human again.

*And they were not out of the galaktabouriko today! HUZZAH!

DR elmore - Are these "new" orchestrations just an expansion of the orchestrations for the more recent material? I thought Tunick had done most of that work for the run at The Kennedy Center during the Sondheim Celebration (almost) 10 years ago.

The postman just rang once.  When I answered the door there was a lovely and wonderful gift from BK himself.  Let me tell you, I am very happy that I sent my address as soon as it was requested.  I shan't say what the package contained; but I will say that I love it!  Love it!

I have been watching some of the YouTube clips from Mandy and Patti Together (or whatever it is called).  Surpisingly, it is Mandy who I am finding irritating, rather than Patti.  There are also some clips included under the Patti and Mandy umbrella that are not from their show together.  One is my all-time favorite clip from the TV series LIFE GOES ON, where Patti sings "The Wind Beneath My Wings" to Chris Burke, who played her son.

Weather-wise (or Whether-wise) I am not sure that January was the best time to start my retirement.

DR TCB, they're showing on the news tonight some of the objects recovered from the Titanic that will be auctioned on April 11. I thought of you at once.

Is that on the national news, and if so, what network?

I doubt I could even manage to win $189 million in the Lottery by April; so, I guess I am out of luck.
