Sorry to have been E&T again, but my Mim is in the hospital again.  Her atrial fibulation is acting up keeping her heart rate too high.  When they use drugs, her blood pressure drops too low.  Plus she has a touch of pneumonia and she's not eating as she should.  This morning they are going to determine if she can go through a procedure called ablation which would shock her heart back into the proper rhythm.  Please send some vibes her way. 

Prayers and vibes for your mom, Dan!

Good morning, all! I wasn't in bed before 1am, so I slept late (for me). I'm still tired, but I am washed up, dressed, and on my first cup of coffee. I have to make the bed, tidy the apartment and vacuum before I tackle the Intermezzo from DEAREST ENEMY. Five numbers to go!



Well, elmore, I am glad that you have finally admitted that you are washed up!


And thanks for the set-up, Lar.

Thanks for the notes on GOBOD, JMK. (Can I get any more initials in that?)


You could have signed it J.G.

DR ELMORE thank you for all of the ONCE links.  I don't think I watched the movie all the way through - but this really looks like a very entertaining show.  It's nice when something good is embraced by the reviewers!!! 

Yes, and I was glad that Egbert and Egberrt liked it, too.

if you desire them, just go to the website to order - they'll be "live" at six.

I went to the webssite and was surprised that the new CDs didn't show up on the opening page.

A little clicking found what I wanted, and I ordered it.

I wasn't born yesterday:

No, I had eight, because you had Uranus.

I think when TCB was born, there were 13 stars.

What are you talking about?  I don't remember any stars.

DR JRand61, I posted the party photos especially for you!

Thank you I appreciate it.....everyone looks great!  You can see the pride in their faces....and their clothes are great as well.  No jeans and t-shirts!

The bleeding stopped but it took ninety minutes, which seems long. I had someone else look at it and they did not think it looked deep at all. Although it does look a bit worse than i originally thought. I am just glad it stopped bleeding.


Finger vibes for Jennifer!

But do you remember how many stars were on the flag then? I honestly don't.

48

July 4, 1912 – add Arizona and New Mexico 48 stars
July 4, 1959 – add Alaska – 49 starts
July 4,, 1960 – add Hawaii – 50 stars

der Brucer


I have an extremely rare 49 star flag which was part of my father's commissioning ceremony when he made the rank of Brigadier General in early 1960.  I've been told it's worth a lot of money.

And elmore still has a Confederate Flag from when he was dating John Wilkes Booth.

I have never forgiven him for missing you and shooting Lincoln.

Shocking news from France.
Horrible news.

That is!  AND several local schools are in lock-down because of a reported triple shooting in Lacey, WA!! :o

What is this world coming to??


And, no doubt, the shooter will be from JBLM.

DR JMK at least you didn't come to a competition in Indiana - here you would have found an LP of GOBOD by the Terre Haute String and Brass Orchestra augmented by the General Lew Wallace Elementary School Chorale.


He wrote BEN-HUR.  Not JMK, but Lew Wallace.

Thank you for the clarification. I did get those two confused the other day.

DR Ginny today I picked up this little purse.



I really needed this on the cruise.  I went for the more sedate colors so I can take it on my next cruise, whenever that might be.

With the purchase of the purse I received a cute little mirror in the pattern on the right, only mine looks cuter.

Thanks, der Brucer. Jones also said elsewhere that he could never get a handle on Bobby. I think that's why he was so good. He was as lost as Bobby is, and in his singing, he's not afraid to show it. Hard for an actor to do that. And in the clips of the 1993 reunion, he's so self-assured and just enjoying himself that he's all Dean Jones and no Bobby at all. He's still good, but it's not the same.

I gave up an offer to play Bobby, so that I could play Vittorio in SWEET CHARITY.  I think that was the beginning of my mental illness.

Love the pre-tied noose; so handy...after the strap breaks from throttling an adversary, you still have a nifty clutch left.

Yes, this is a rip off from a CLOSER episode.

Good to see that the New York Times redid its review of "Once" and liked the show more now. I, too, had friends who hated the movie and I would steer them clear of the stage version

Thanks for commenting.  Keith's cousin sent me a nice review from the LA Times.

See the bottom of this "review" for a complete musical sequence.DR Ben, I don't agree with you about the movie and the musical; i think the musical is an imaginative revision and not an attempt to put the film onstage: the songs are in different places, the cast iis utilized more imaginatively. I wish more movie adaptations treated the films they're based on so loosely rather than try to present the movie onstage.

Thanks for the link & comments.  I sent the link to Keith's cousin & aunt who will be in NY in May.

Sorry to have been E&T again, but my Mim is in the hospital again.  Her atrial fibulation is acting up keeping her heart rate too high.  When they use drugs, her blood pressure drops too low.  Plus she has a touch of pneumonia and she's not eating as she should.  This morning they are going to determine if she can go through a procedure called ablation which would shock her heart back into the proper rhythm.  Please send some vibes her way.

A friend at Twilight Time has confirmed that Best Buy holds "exclusivity" over "Titanic" (1953-20th-Fox: Barbara Stanwyck and Clifton Webb).   

Sigh.

I guess Fox really KNOWS the target audience for this title -- Best Buy shoppers!

Good morning, all! I wasn't in bed before 1am, so I slept late (for me). I'm still tired, but I am washed up, dressed, and on my first cup of coffee. I have to make the bed, tidy the apartment and vacuum before I tackle the Intermezzo from DEAREST ENEMY. Five numbers to go!

I posted these clips from ONCE several weeks ago, but after its reviews, it's time to post them again.

I just came quickly to a computer to google something. I was cutting some cheese and the knife slipped and cut my pinkie. It does not seem deep. But it hurts and will not stop bleeding. I actually ended up doing what it said online- cold water, then wrap tightly and lift hand over your head. Ouch.

Sounds like a good fix.  But yes, ouch!
