Sounds like an enjoyable day at sea, TCB.

The two "partial films" I saw; one was an old friend and one was a discovered
treasure.  The old friend was APOLLO 13.  I can't believe how caught up I get
watching that movie.  Even knowing how it ends, I still hold my breath wondering
if they will make it.  Another movie with a great cast of actors from Tom Hanks
to Gary Sinese.

And the discovered treasure, but probably only a discovery to me, was a film
entitled BIG FISH.  I couldn't really describe it, nor would I want to try, but
if you get a  chance to see the film, go for it. Albert Finney in his most
American role.  A touching little film. 

Big Fish, the musical, is trying out in Chicago. The reviews were quite encouraging.

BIG FISH on stage sounds strange enough, but I guess it would be terrific as a musical

How did you sneak back in here John?  I thought I was alone.  What time is it in Texas?

DAYS AT SEA - almost sounds like a title

[TCB]

Hey Fred!

Sounds like an enjoyable day at sea, TCB.

DAYS AT SEA - almost sounds like a title

Actually there have been enough histrionics on this cruise to make a good soap opera.

[TCB]

No one interested in chatting?

[TCB]

Oh well!





G'night!

[Cillaliz]

Welcome back, Jane and Cillaliz.

LOL, I really didn't leave and didn't realize I hadn't been posting

[Cillaliz]

I can't imagine Big Fish on stage

[FJL]

Yikes, i went for a glass of tea and TCB left.

[Cillaliz]

Tomorrow morning I'm going to the Humane Society garage sale.  No, they aren't selling things from the Humane Society, they are selling donated items FOR the Humane Society.  I'm guessing that there may be some good finds at that sale.  It's the first really nice weekend and the end of the month so I think I"ll drive around and look for garage sales.  They are always best at the end of the month...people moving who need to get things sold

[Cillaliz]

Oh shoot, I would have chatted, TCB.

[Cillaliz]

What kind of tea?

[Cillaliz]

Guess I scared everyone away...

In a way, it seems more like a couple of years!  Can it really only be last June - ten months ago - that BK, DR Elmore, DR Ben, DR FJL, E&T DR Producer Julie, and some singin' gal named Sandy Bainum had our first get-together??

I am so very glad that you came to join our family here!!

It's 10:47 in Texas. Sorry I slipped out again to finish watching my movie.

So, I guess everyone was watching "Carousel" on PBS tonight, right?

[vixmom]

My son and I sat outside and watched the mockingbird feed the fledglings.

The babies are very loud. And the second after the parent drops the bug in that big open mouth, the baby starts crying again for more.

that is a GREAT photo!!!  Thank yiou Laura!

[vixmom]

Well today in my cd player is the ANgela Lansbursy cast of MAME  - but TOMORROW i will be listening to PIPPIN -courtesy of dear DR JRand

Thank you very much Jack, I truly appreciate it  -- the Vixter was quite chuffed as well when she saw what was in my package

[ChasSmith]

Oh HELL.  Which Carousel??

Couldn't have anyway, as I was playing a show.  But have I stopped into the Comcast office for a DVR?  I guess you can guess the answer to that one.

[ChasSmith]

Oh!  --  the NY Philharmonic.  Damn it to HELL.

[vixmom]

I was busy making door prizes for a fund raiser at our church on Sunday  - I am too lazy at the moment to get up and take pictures

[ChasSmith]

Let's see if I can say HELL in three consecutive posts, shall we?

[ChasSmith]

It repeats on Sunday at 12:30 pm, for anyone else in Channel 13 Land who needs it.

In other news, I am relieved and delighted to say these (now)-amazing high school kids pulled a great opening night of BARNUM out of their collective arse.  There are many nits to pick, but it wasn't the disaster one would have fully expected after last night's debacle.  And this place is no Calabasas.  No, sir.  But somehow, the spirit of the show was unleashed like a genie from a bottle -- for the first damned time -- and they even covered a few tech bloopers better than you could ever imagine.

I started listening to the French production of Sunday In The Park With George sung in English. I'm so used to hearing it sung by Americans (Broadway Cast) that the British cast is sometimes off putting.

It is available for listening for another month. So I will take my time. This show is really a visual delight so listening only to everything (dialogue included) can be a bit of a chore.
