Page Five!

[TCB]

There is a button missing on the "reply page," but I am not sure what it said.

[TCB]

Well, my work here is done.




G'night!

[Jane]

DR TCB, or any other DR's, have you been to Fiji?

Not yet.

.....but I would like to see it.  Probably not this week.  I'll wait till it dries out.

I don't recommend going during the rainy season.  We got lucky it cleared up the last part of our trip.

[Jane]

Sleep well DR TCB.

[Jane]

'night

[Laura]

For several months now we have had this series of commercials that are personal stories that end with, "And I'm a Mormon."  Now in the last few weeks we have the same types of stories, but these end with, "And I'm a Phoenix."

What next?

I have no idea what this means.

[Jennifer]

Early this morning I couldn't sleep & opened my Nook to read.  The book I was reading now says ""Error Dialog.  User not activated"  Then I have to click ok to remove it.  Has anyone experienced this before?

I don't mind about the book since it is boring & I only returned to it as I have finished reading THE PERFECT HUSBAND.  Perfect really should be in quotes on this one.

The "error dialog" book is from the library, however, it is not due yet & still available on my computer.

Maybe someone with a nook can help you.

DR Jane if you liked the Perfect Husband ... well the FBI profiler series only gets better and better as you get to know the main characters better and their stories develop. I love this series.

[John G.]

Well, the cocktail conference has started. And it's all very tasty studies.

[bk]

Finished with my viewing for the evening.

[JoseSPiano]

Good Evening!

I really enjoyed Anything Goes. Some of the changes to book still "surprise" me after doing the bus-and-truck tour of the Lincoln Center/Patti LuPone version, but I do like the new dance arrangements and orchestrations. I'm still not totally sold on Joel Grey's take on "Moonface Martin" - it's just way to low-key and non-"traditional" for me. I know some people have a "problem" with Sutton Foster, but I liked her "Reno Sweeney", and any sort of "stiffness" is part of the way she was directed. In any case...

There really is nothing like a 10-minute tap number to bring a smile to one's face.

[John G.]

Night, all.

[JoseSPiano]

I hope DR Kevin H was not affected by today's problems(!!!!) affecting DC's Metro system. Apparently, there was a major delay this morning due to a cracked rail, and then a few hours ago, the whole computer system shut down. People were - and still are - stuck on trains for an hour or more. There are reports of drivers walking to the next station to see if they could proceed, as well as commuters walking along the tracks to get to their destination.

Well, the cocktail conference has started. And it's all very tasty studies.

Any pickle-backs?

[JoseSPiano]

If any DRs are thinking of heading down to DC to catch The Music Man at Arena Stage, some performances in May and June just popped up on Goldstar:

Tony-Winning Musical Comedy The Music Man at Arena Stage

What is Goldstar?

Goldstar is a discount ticket service. I believe they started in Los Angeles, but they now have a presence in a bunch of cities across the U.S.  Various performing arts organizations will "give" them a block of tickets to sell to their members - membership is free - and those tickets are sold at a discount. It's a way for a theatre/concert venue/club/etc. to fill up their seats. Another similar service is SmartTix.

[JoseSPiano]

I have to say, on the basis of the tv commercials, these new tiny orchestrations for THE GERSHWINS' PORGY AND BESS stink.

Yep.

[JoseSPiano]

It is getting more difficult to find standard machines.  I chose mine as they had the easiest doors & lids to open, plus the dryer was easier to get into.

Is there a reason why you wanted to get iinto the dryer?

I'm kind of surprised at how some washing machines do not have a fully adjustable water levels. My parents have "new" machines, but the water level settings are "small", "large" and "extra large". -And, I swear, the "small" setting provides just enough water to wash six pairs of socks. Meanwhile, "large" is, well, "large". Where's my "medium" setting?

[JoseSPiano]

DR TCB, or any other DR's, have you been to Fiji?

Not I.

[JMK]

Well I'm back from opening night.  Some really inventive pieces, though I will say some of these writers "want to be Sondheim," to quote a song Guy Haines once sang, and evidently others want to be Duncan Sheik.    But some really great writing all around, and all but one of the cast in my show were indeed able to count to 7.

DR JMK - If this was "opening night", how many more chances will that one cast member get to count to 7?

Congrats!

There is a button missing on the "reply page," but I am not sure what it said.

Same here. -And I can't remember what it said either. Was it "Spell Check"?

[JoseSPiano]

In any case...

Goodnight.

[George]

Tonight's rehearsal went quite well.  We started at the top and worked through the whole show.  It's gonna be pretty good, in my humble opinion (IMHO, in Internet lingo).

[George]

Feel better vibes for DR TCB.

I have spell check on Firefox.

Interesting...I don't have spell check on Firefox. 

[George]

I don't have to be at rehearsal again until Tuesday.  I only have four lines...what do you expect?

[George]

HOPEFULLY, a week from next Tuesday, I'll be ushering for the tour of Young Frankenstein that's coming to Olympia.  I've sent in my usher request e-mail, but I haven't heard back, yet.

[George]

Two weeks from yesterday, I'll be seeing Capital Playhouse's production of Hair.  I asked for those two days off from rehearsal and they were (easily) able to schedule me out.
