Well, you've read the notes, the notes were pianistic, alarming, and devilish, and now it is time for you to post until the pianistic, alarming, and devilish cows come home.

Good morning, all!

I slept relatively well with no ghostly activity. I will be glad when the weather warms up,though; it was chilly last night. Today, I am back to Toyland for a Fed Ex shipment of binding supplies. Then, tonight at 6:30, I, meet Charlotte for "Jack the Giant Killer." That's my day.

Just a handful of us so far this morning. Well, it is early.

Good morning, all.

First day to work from home. Promises to be interesting.

Someone emailed me that a photo of me from 2009 had been posted online this morning. Sure enough, there I was serving bratwurst at one of our annual Fiesta parties. I'm not the one in the hat:

The entire score of "The Good Companions," especially Stagestruck Me, Stage Door John and I'll Tell the World
Petticoat High
Run, Cinderella
Plus, many of the songs already mentioned

Here's a very odd, too-busy version of Stagestruck Me sung by some little girl named Lena Zavaroni.

Good morning, all.

First real day of spring, as far as I'm concerned. And not a moment too soon. In fact, a few moments too late, but what can you do.

Coffee!

Nice photo, DR John G!

I just heard from the assistant to our producer that the Epilogue and Appendix of DEAREST ENEMY will be coming soon! Very good news.

And greetings from Toyland!

Coming soon to you, Elmore. Not soon enough to the rest of us.

I like all the Johnny Mercer songs that were previously posted, but my "favorite" is one that he was supposed to write but didn't.

Mercer was supposed to write the lyrics for a Johnny Mandel tune in a movie called THE SANDPIPER.

For whatever reason, he couldn't do tackle it, so the assignment was turned over to my publicity client, Paul Francis Webster, and that resulted in "The Shadow of Your Smile," which won the Best Song Oscar that year.

Have I passed over something by accident? Is this JACK THE GIANT KILLER thing a running error designed to drive the Gaslit and deliberately-driven-slightly-nuts among us even more bonkers and screaming: It's JACK THE GIANT SLAYER!

I'm expecting Allen Funt to step from behind the Candid camera any second now to say "Gotcha" as if the whole world had suddenly started using "soundtrack' where they meant "cast album."

All of the LA pictures at that link are most entertaining! That site that used MR BK's rant also has tons of great photos from Hollywood of Yesterday.

Does anyone here have a copy of Main Street to Broadway? It's a 1953 MGM film. I've found 2 sellers on Amazon but I thought since there are people here who traffic in older films that someone may have a copy?
