I hadn't been eager at all to see ONCE based on listening to the OCR but seeing the "Gold" number last night has perked my interest.  Also would like to see PETER AND THE STARCATCHER (though I don't think last night's snippets really showed it off all that well.)


That number of ONCE did not make me want to see the show. That's why i was curious if that was a fair representation of the show.

I thought that number was fantastic!

I am enjoying the liner notes from both new KRITZERLAND cd's.

I was surprised after all of the positive things I had heard, that Tracie Bennett seemed so off the mark.....


She seemed more locked into Judy from the late 50s, rather than Judy in 1969 and near death.

I have never perfromed in drag, but I could have done a better Judy Garland.

Or the HAIRSPRAY number...there was absolutely no point for that.  Not that it was bad, but just completely unneccessary.

I think it's pretty cool that cruise ships are doing Broadway musicals. I think it would have been fine for them to mention the fact that Hairspray was currently on a ship. Or even to just quickly talk to the cast members. But to do the whole number ... and then leave out Bernadette Peters accepting her award or the In Memorium section. That makes no sense.

Which makes me think, how could you not want to see BLOODLUST, after viewing this trailer!

I bet you never saw the Brady Bunch dad in anything like this before!

I saw the Brady Bunch dad in a pink and orange jump suit doing the Hustle on the Brady Brunch variety show. That is more than enough.

It was done to put her on par with Elaine Stritch, back when she had her acceptance speech cut off.

I started watching the Tony show at 8 p.m. (tape-delayed, of course).  Loved the opening number.  And then there was the number from "Newsies" and I was nearly apoplectic before it (mercifully)(finally) ended.   What a lengthy, tedious and boring number.  And it won the Tony for choreography?  Oh my freaking goodness!

I was a bit put out that Mr. Tiffany's acceptance speech went on and on and on and on and on and on..I mean, I switched channels and surfed a bit hoping it would be over before I got back...and it wasn't over.  He seemed to talk for several minutes.   And then poor Mike Nichols got about 95 seconds before the orchestra began playing him off.   

Happily, "True Blood's" fifth season started at 9 a.m. and I was able to spend the rest of my evening angst-free.  Still, I did record the show and will fast-forward to places you guys have said good things about (and a few bad things about, too).

Reed is so much taller than the rest of the cast they should have named it "Stranger on Midget Island".

Tonight I will be blocking the action sequence in THE CURIOUS SAVAGE....which some people do not realize is written into the script.

GREAT screams at the end of that trailer.

Yes, amazing they were able to include actual audience reaction to the film that way.

Are we sure the person that does the Judy Garland tribute is a guy?  I thought (seriously) that it was a woman.

It was a woman.  I was just saying that I have seen drag queens do a better Judy Garland than that woman did last night.

The fridge/freezer repair men came. They took one look at it and said it was past repair (so why did the previous repair man say it could be repaired?) My service contract provides for a new replacement if it can't be repaired but they said the phone line to head office was busy so they couldn't make arrangements for a replacement at the present time. They left saying they would phone to say what arrangements will be made. Grrr! Not happy!  >:(   

How frustrating for you!!!  Vibes you will be very happy with your new frig!!

This morning I had errands to do before my audiology appointment.  Now I have to get used to the changes.  Until I get used to them I don't know if this is an improvement or not.  I think it is.

Have to do a phone interview in an hour.  Picked up a new supply of the new book, plus a couple of other small packages.

Did anyone who watched the Tonys last night, notice in one of the audience shots stage left with NPH; there was a man sitting there dressed in a South Sea native (?) outfit, with this big head behind him?

No I have not taken any drugs today!

I saw that and thought that it was supposed to be either some bit that for some reason didn't happen or an inside joke.

Speaking of wildlife........

While driving home up our dirt road today I suddenly slammed on my brakes and stopped.  On the edge of the road was a rather small fawn.  I left my car parked on the road & walked up to our house.  Keith had heard me and was walking down our driveway to see if there was a problem.  I asked him to get the orange cones we have to put around the fawn so cars wouldn't run over it.

I put one cone down & when he walked up to do the second one the fawn got up and wobbled (as young ones do) over towards me.  Finally he went to off into the brush so we left.

Years ago Echo found a fawn & I read that mother deer do leave their fawns for lengthy periods.  They blend into the brush so well they are usually safe.  I hope this one is.

I feel very pleased right now.  This morning a facebook friend complained about his poison ivy.  I told him to go get Zanfel right away.  He just thanked me, said it was the best $40 he has spent in a long time. :)
