DR Jennifer,

I find that with these matters, it's easiest - and probably fastest - just to retype rather than angsting over the situation. You may even find that you're improving on the original as you go. Consider yourself fortunate that you have something to type from. (Any chance that you saved it as a Word document and can attach it? And maybe that's the best way to proceed when you do retype it; that way you can save as you go along.)

I think your advice is good.  The reason I'm hesitating is that it took longer than an hour.  And I'm still not convinced I didn't send it.

I am stupid because I did save it as I went along. But after I thought I sent it, I erased what I saved (since i thought i was saving the email i sent).

And no I didn't save it as a word document.  And no I can't improve on it, since I'm copying it word for word from something I have with me.

Panni I didn’t receive your message.  To be on the safe side I reduced the number of messages in my in-box just to be sure there is room to receive more.  Does the message show up in your out-box?

TCB sends his "Hello" and best wishes to the usual suspects. He will try and log on at some.  Still major problems with his computer.

Did I got to School with your father? I remember the years well - and the hit parades.  Did anyone find out how much was that doggie in the window. Perhaps Gord. and DR DIT would know.

Jennifer, it was an hour of typing, not just doing the work?  When does your friend need this?  Can you do it at home, a little at a time?  Will your friend call you as soon as/if the email is received?

He doesn't "need" it, I just promised I'd send it.  And I don't know how long it took, but more than an hour, maybe even two. :(

And yes I will know if it is received.

Thanks for caring.

What's up with that?

And listening to DRs Panni and Jane - it makes me wonder how many messages are MIA.  Crazy.

Thanks for saying that since I feel like a complete idiot.  At least most people in my position would know if they actually sent the message and HAD to re-type it.

The Risë Stevens/Aldolp Green recording is availbale on CD together with extra material - Danny Kaye singing six numbers from the show including "Jenny" and "My Ship".

Now then DRs - can you connect the LP (Lady in the Dark) with the DVD (Marx Brothers) in the requisite six degrees or less?

der Brucer
The CD of the Rise Stevens LP of Lady in the Dark includes extra material featuring Danny Kaye...

...Who appeared as himself on The Lucy Show (episode: "Lucy Meets Danny Kaye") starring Lucille Ball...

Who in turn played the female lead in the film Room Service...

Which starred the Marx Brothers.

I tried that line once, and failed miserably. I believe an exact quote would have been "No way am I driving across country with 5 dogs in the car!". (And you were only dealing with 1 more - I had Blond twin adolescents with which to contend.)

Though I would have thought that adding two more to the family would be unfair to the three we had, it turns out that they are all the happier with the added playmates.  (And the blonds have learned to share "qualiity time" with me laying on the bed and gazing out of the window at the squirrels and birds cavorting in yard.)

I'd have said "always a sucker for a lost puppy," at least for as long as I've known you.   ;)

Jane - I sent you a long PM in reply to yours yesterday about the videos and it's not in my Outbox, nor did you get it. Aaaargh!

Could someone PM me Jane's email. I think I had it, but no longer do and she's not signed on. Thanks!


ADDED: FOUND THE ADDRESS.

BK - I've checked, I've looked, and I still cant find where you've answered my BK query, so here it is again:

I'd love to know about the process leading to the selection of the songs for What If.

When different people were cast, did you then find material that would be right for them?
Were songs dropped after casting because nobody was right for them?

Had you, before embarking on this project, a list of songs that you thought would be good in a revue - to draw on.  What "new" listening did you do, once it seemed Plan B might become a reality?

Did you ever get in touch with Marcy and Zina?  Their new musical, Junie B. Jones, opens next week at the Lucille Lortel

Ah, but we did find a home for the "blonds"...OURS!   :D :D

Bonnie is currently under my bed, and Buster is on top of it, looking down and watching her tail wag.  Pounce time is approaching.

Spoo, forgot about Monk.  Der Brucer will have to tape it, I guess, since Stargate: Atlantis plays it's opener at the same time.  (See, Danise, you're not alone!)

All right, I'll bite.  Is she going through all of the audio commentaries, or just watching the films over and over and...

I mean, I've heard der Brucer's daughter complain about what goes on when her mother visits, but your MiL takes the cake!

Pounce Time has occurred!  Bonnie and Buster have been racing up and down the hall, pausing only at one end or the other to wrassle (either in the living room or on my bed).  The other dogs are just watching them, bemused.

I have had a very quiet day off, mostly spent napping.  The morning glories planted along the dog run downstairs have been spectacularly blue, with one in bright fuchia opening up as well (a mini-flower version).  Life is pleasant.

Media check:

VHS: both taped off of TV, IT CAME FROM BENEATH THE SEA (too much talk, not enough monster)...and THE GIRL MOST LIKELY (fun to see Keith Andes in a musical comedy, but otherwise it was just OK)

DVD: A few episodes of Stingray.

And my Bollywood DVD this weekend is HARISHCHANDRA TARAMATI (whew!).

It apears to be a nifty little costume/mythological treat from 1963, the kind of movie of which I have become most fond of!

It stars Helen along with some actors I have not heard of before.
