My grand-cat is so smart she can print information off the computer all by herself. Our printer is in the laundry room off the kitchen. We were all in the kitchen talking when we heard the printer start working. Confused I went to see what was printing & found Craig's baseball info. I didn't realize kitty enjoyed baseball as much as her father does.

A Glut of Polyglottal References is the title of my next multi-language dictionary.

Well, okay. But I'm claiming "The Leap To Hebrew" as the title of my next Religious dissertation.

. . .which evidently also includes a section on interpretive dance.

I used to music direct for a "new thought" church here in Portland and they had this daffy old lady (as in her 80's or 90's) that used to dress up in a toga and big purple sash and do interpretive dance for various holidays. I found it's hard to play piano/organ when you're giggling madly under your breath.

Must go finish PAL JOEY and SWAMP WATER (who says my days aren't eclectic).

DR Elmore, you must have missed some posts last night...it was n't Tate Taylor I was asking about....although I was certainly looking at him!!

I find your continual erotomania so depressing that I just wish you'd get laid! I hope and pray that it will cool your jets. I think you need more saltpeter in your diet.

So, I forgot to mention that I spoke to DR Danise last night.She is not staying at Columbus Citcle as she had announced. She's staying three blocks from me on 79th Street. Hopefully, we will get together for a visit this afternoon.

Speaking of subjects as depressing as Barnum's erotomania, I am having a completely nerve wracking computer-printer situation with the DEAREST ENEMY scores:
one pdf of the Full Scores, No 9 Entr'Acte, will not print on the office computer; everything else so far of the first eleven numbers printed fine, but No 9 is a problem: the copier revs up to print it and then deletes it. Today, I tried printing out the first 20 numbers of Joshie's new vocal score pdf. No 9 will not print! Neither will No 17.

I rebooted all the office equipment, shut down things, started them up again and nothing will print that score, either P-V or Full Score. I can print them both here on 8x11, but he scores look different on this printer. I sent the files to Joshie at City Center. Everything printed fine. What the hell is going on?

Hello, everyone.

Let's see if it works this time. I keep getting those connection messages.

I'm a fan of both classical and modern dance, but I was underwhelmed by THE BLACK SWAN. So much hype, too!

Jeanne · « **Reply #74 on:** February 28, 2012, 10:40:27 AM »

I'll add

BALLET SHOES

to the list.

Jeanne · « **Reply #75 on:** February 28, 2012, 10:41:55 AM »

Each time I put on that dress with umpteen petticoats I get caught in an absolute pettiFOG, and fear I'll NEVER find my way out again!

You haven't lived until you've seen Aronofsky's π (Pi). Let's just say it makes that final moment of Frankenheimer's Seconds with the power drill look like child's play.

Huh?

That "pi" looks suspiciously like the Hebrew letter "he" or perhaps "cheth", as I'm sure everyone will agree.

That's what I thought, too.

You evidently haven't seen the Rock Hudson film Seconds (directed by John Frankenheimer).]

Can we have a photograph of her printing out documents.

I don't think shaving off my beard has done me any favours. I'm going to grow it again. It helps if my face is hidden.

Perhaps you should post before and after photos and let us be the judge!

Personally, I am fond of facial hair.
