TOD

CD - Love is a Many-Splendored Thing
DVD - My Cousin Rachel
BLU - Pat Metheny: The Orchestrion Project

That's as of last night. The new day is young (and aren't we all), so who knows!

Maybe they do not realize how they are acting.
Maybe they do.

Parent's reactions are tricky. I know, I've been dealing with someone's reaction to the things I tell him about his kids for over a year. His eyes and ears are closed when it comes to his kids. Only 2 times he opened them where in court with his ex-wife.

I've given up. The kids lost my wanting to help them. Maybe I'll try again when they get older.

So now I just keep peace and stay away.

Vixmon is right, talk to a lawyer who is a friend.

Just my thoughts.

Happy Anniversary bk.

Happy Anniversary everyone.

My advice:

Don't send the letter.

I have no idea what the situation is, but you've already vented your emotions in writing the letter.

Sending ti can only throw gasoline onto the fire.

Let it go!

It's Friday, there is never a TOD, it's a list of what you're listening to, watching on various forms of video, reading, etc.

DR TCB - recorded music in a musical certainly has its place in these times, especially in a smaller venue with little or no space for musicians. I've never had an "accident" in performance (knock on wood) and I don't intend to. I tend to make it fool proof for vamps and such which takes a lot of editing and learning the show with the performers with the tracks. It's good for kids as they are able to rehearse with a track of what the music will be in performance. The more you rehearse with it, the more it settles in your body and you are less likely to "go up" at all.

Let me say it's NOT my preferred method of doing a musical, but it has its place and when it's used correctly, is an invaluable resource.

Gracious and aloof.

Those are the watchwords I usually attempt to embrace when I'm annoyed, irritated, hurt by a friend's/associate's words or deeds.

I'd certainly confide in "mutual" friends about my concerns and feelings about something, but I think vixmom and Druxy and Kerry are correct...the strongly worded e-mail will not solve -- but will accelerate deterioration of -- whatever the situation is.

If this is strictly business (i.e., no bonds of friendship ever involved), then strongly worded is the way to go.

My 7 1/2 cents worth.

I am not generally a fan of strongly worded emails - I think it leads to grief, burned bridges and locked doors

I prefer your usual method of washing it down the drain

I agree. When I have been incensed enough to take dramatic action I invariably regret it later. And once done, there's no turning back. Best to move on.

I just went to yesterday and read the posts from after I went to sleep last night

Is she still doing the act, as you created it, elsewhere?

Are you able to legally place an injunction on her doing the act?

This is my question too. Is she still doing the act?

Sending the strong email because the parents have been rude is a separate issue to me. IF she is still doing the act and you don't want her to do it then that is one thing.

I don't think that you should send the email. This girl probably had nothing to do with your split from her. And since you were so close she is probably quite upset by it all.

If you don't want her to do the act and she is then that is another thing. You can nicely tell this to the parents.

Also, if you really want to contact the parents then you should be the bigger person. Do not make it a mean-spirited email to get it off your chest. Do not tell them you think they are rude. If you wanted you could tell them how hurt you were that they did not contact you re: the award. The thing is it feels like they burned their relationship with you. So they are probably too ashamed to contact you.

TOD:

CD - THE RED HOUSE

MBarnum · « **Reply #50 on:** November 09, 2012, 07:57:40 AM »

BK, I' with the others. Don't send the email. It won't help the situation and will only make things worse.

MBarnum · « **Reply #51 on:** November 09, 2012, 08:00:04 AM »

TOD:

DVD:
An Eyetalian spy film from the 1960s titled KISS, KISS, BANG, BANG starring a couple of actors who are more often seen in spaghetti westerns.

DVR:
A couple of 1930s oldies recorded off of TCM this week.

John G. · « **Reply #52 on:** November 09, 2012, 08:01:10 AM »

BK, would it help to send the email to a third party you trust and who knows some part of the background before you send it off?

Did you ever see the American Kiss, Kiss, Bang, Bang with Robert Downey Jr. and Val Kilmer as a gay detective nicknamed Gay Paree? It had its moments.

How was opening night, JRand?

Jrand74 · « **Reply #56 on:** November 09, 2012, 08:03:02 AM »

Nice book review!!!

RE: The email....if you can stick to business as the subject - send it. But if the young girl was always pleasant and a hard worker....it will put her in the middle....

Friday morning greetings! I slept for over 10 hours last night, if you count that I fell asleep in my chair at the start of ROCK CENTER at 10pm. Today will be quiet, as planned.

I've been up since six, just stayed in bed until the phone rang a few minutes ago. But I guess I'm up now.
