iPod is ready with 7.3 hours of songs that should please almost all of the passengers in the car. And personally, I'm resigned to have an awesome time. I will check in later

I am back from bank, post office, and Magnolia Bakery with a pumpkin pecan muffin. It's time to work on taxes.

When DR Druxy first told us about Chester, someone said what a perfect name for a dog. And it really is. It would fit on a good many dogs, but being a fairly distinguished name, you would certainly have to find it on a classic English bloodhound, perhaps on a dog living on the Rutland estate in MARNIE.

Sounds like a fun day, Matthew. Enjoy.

It's also the name of a good hamburger joint here in San Antonio.

ChasSmith, if you enjoy The Elegance of the Hedgehog, you might also enjoy Gourmet Rhapsody by the same author. It's a foodie tale with exquisite dribblings about all things gourmet.

Nice Filichia on Friday about "The Fig Leaves Are Falling," a show that has always intrigued me because of Allen Sherman's involvement. There had been talk in days gone by and the record label that shall remain nameless of a recording being released. I guess that's a dead issue.

Chester is a fine looking Canine DR DRUXY!

After seeing how Rob Ashford can screw up a musical with "How To Succeed, it's nice to learn that he's turning his production of "Cat On A Hot Tin Roof" into a musical: http://www.nypost.com/p/entertainment/theater/cat_needs_an_exorcism_WNLojujBRW1WikfFhig8LN

Some choreographers always remain chorus boys.

CHESTER-What A Great Name!

ChasSmith · « **Reply #42 on:** January 04, 2013, 08:55:44 AM »

I had an Uncle Chester.

Actually, my dad's uncle. But we all knew him as that. And he was definitely a Chester.

Actually, if he wasn't 3 years old and used to the name "Chester," I would have called him "Mitch".

He has Robert Mitchum eyes.

TOD:

Turntable - an old favorite I haven't spun in years, THE TWILIGHT ZONE, Vols. 1 through 5, with an executive producer whose name sounds vaguely familiar

BLU - THE TWILIGHT ZONE (are you detecting a pattern here?)

Also, BELOVED INFIDEL which I didn't finish up last night. And I'm now waiting on a nice shipment of the UK Jacques Tati BLUs.

I'm up, I'm up. Once again I was up at five, turned on the heat, and fell back asleep at six and slept until just before ten.

Had the telephonic conversation and it was a good one.

Going back to see THE MUSICAL OF MUSICALS: THE MUSICAL tonight, its last weekend. I liked the show just fine for the most part, but the four people doing it (five, actually, in this one; they aren't sharing piano duties as was done originally) are just brilliant and need to be seen again.

They're here! The UK Blu-rays are here, and in record time -- six days from shipment, and that includes a weekend and a holiday. Would that life could be like this all the time.

I've been thinking about you this morning, Vixmom. I hope you test went well and they give you good results today.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #53 on:** January 04, 2013, 11:40:06 AM »

Yes indeed - good test vibes for DR VIXMOM.

DR ELMORE that link about CAT is pretty scary. How the heck do these people keep getting work?

Warner DVD-on-order is having a January clearance sale. Now, if the DVDs are only made when people order them, how can they be on clearance? Logic aside, there are some some finds for 25-35% off:

Thanks for posting Chester's picture on this site.

I'm glad it worked, Druxy.

I wish I knew, Jack! We'd be stars!

I do think Ashford is really overrated. I got tired of prancing chorus boys interrrupting "Grand Old Ivy." It's like he can't stage a duet without believing adding a lot of bouncing boys will only im[prove the number. He's not very good but he works. Same with Scott Ellis.

Still on Page 2? I guess the holiday is over.
