My on-screen weather bug says the temperature is 93 and it feels like 97.

I'm glad I'm inside.

I'm up, thanks to another tree-trimmer ringing my doorbell at nine, wanting to give me a quote. I gave him a quote: "Nevermore."

I put a small sign on my door that reads: "Day Sleeper -- please do not knock or ring bell."

It works most of the time.

The movers were great and very speedy. I am now off to the bank and then to 27th Street to wait for them. U will check in from Toyland.

We are still trying to get the temperature to go above 60 today. But it is still early.

I have a friend who has had too much heartache recently, except for the birth of her grand child. Will you please help her by voting for her granddaughter's bedroom. You don't have to sign up for anything, just vote for Ashlynn's Nursery

Thanks.

Voted!

Deb, hope your time in Canada is relaxing. You need a good vacation.

Vixter wasn't involved in The Scottish Play at SCCC was she? We saw the notice on the billboard when we were in Centereach. Anthony's parents live very close to the Ammerman Campus.

You do know what I mean by The Scottish Play don't you? It's the Shakespeare play with the curse and many people only refer to it as TSP and don't quote any lines from it.

Friends of mine also refer to it as "MacB" and/or "Mackers."

It's the one that isn't "MacBird."

I hope someone doesn't slip and type it out or Haines His Way may be cursed!!!

I had (finally) ordered Ted Chapin's book, "Everything Was Possible" and it just arrived! Also, it's inscribed to Barbara...which Barbara, I'll never know.

Can anyone tell what the word before "College Forever" is??

ChasSmith · « **Reply #104 on:** July 24, 2012, 11:51:59 AM »

Conn -- as in Connecticut?

(I just googled to make sure there is one by that name.)

Ben · « **Reply #105 on:** July 24, 2012, 11:55:55 AM »

Well, he did graduate from Connecticut College in 1972

Chapin Bio

Jrand73 · « **Reply #106 on:** July 24, 2012, 12:01:54 PM »

I agree....looks like Conn to me as well.

Obviously Ted values Barbara more than she values him OR his book.

All 18 cartons are in the hallway, ready for the elevator and the movers.

DR Ben, THOU SWELL THOU WITTY is the only source for the photo of the peg-leg dance in DEAREST ENEMY. I hope I can find an original copy to scan for the recording booklet.

I remember when I bought my copy of Dorothy Hart's book; it was spring, 1976, in a large bookstore in downtown Dayton, OH. While I remember all of that, I cannot remember if I'd gone to Dayton with Jim Martin to hear a Dayton Opera Chorus rehearsal or if I had gone with our DR Ginny. My memory tells me I was with Ginny and I remember nice spring or autumn-like weather.

DR Elmore, the bookstore, called Wilkie's, is no more. You and I both went to the rehearsal with Jim because they needed costume measurements for the chorus members. You measured the men and I measured the women and then we went to the bookstore while the chorus rehearsed. Someone else from Middletown was in the chorus and rode along with us. I think we went to the Upper Krust, also now out of business, to eat afterwards.

Conn College Forever...makes sense. Thanks!

John G. · « **Reply #109 on:** July 24, 2012, 12:30:23 PM »

Does that make him a Conn man? Sorry, I couldn't resist that one. Maybe it's the dregs of the knock knock jokes that inspired it.

Greetings from Toyland! I guess, even though the Toyland project is dead, it will always be Toyland.

I left the house dry and collected, rode the bus to the bank, went to the subway, then the deli, then the office and removed my shirt, which was soaked though.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #112 on:** July 24, 2012, 01:36:47 PM »

We had a heavy duty copier that hasn't been used since around 2004. It is big enough to house a family and weighs a ton. I called the building's sanitation service and they told me if it were in the basement, they would charge me $75 to dump it, but $275 if they had to come to the 10th floor and take iut down. The super and his assistant just took it to the basement for me, and I'm going to give them each $50 each for carting it out of here, saving myself $100 in the deal.

Good Morning! Good Afternoon!

I'm up, I'm up... And it's hot and muggy in DC (too).

Otherwise...

Jrand73 · « **Reply #114 on:** July 24, 2012, 02:00:09 PM »

Easy $100!!! And people who did you a favor got $50 each!

Jrand73 · « **Reply #115 on:** July 24, 2012, 02:00:26 PM »

And so I am off to my first MILLIE rehearsal.

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #116 on:** July 24, 2012, 02:00:46 PM »

Thanks for the Welcomes back!

-Or should that be "welcome's back"?

-Or "welcome backs"? (sound more like a DR MBarnum cinema favorite)
