That must be it!  Lily's longtime companion (like, for over 30 years now) is Jane Wagner, author of "The Search for Signs of Intelligent Life in the Universe" and "Moment by Moment".

If you Google me you'll see that I'm making mission trips to Hungary. (Don't tell the rabbi!)
Also, I coach a girls' soccer team.

I'm hungry, but I can't decide what to eat. I may go to Gelson's and scope out the place. Or somewhere else... Decisions, decisions...

My favorites among Sammy Cahn songs include "Come Fly With Me," and the joyous "Walking Happy." I like the "Tender Trap," but can no longer hear it without thinking about Billy Crystal's Oscar takeoff ("Those eyes/Those thighs/Surprise!/It's The Crying Game"). (BTW, it was Bruce Vilanch, I understand, who penned those lyrics.) Of his Oscar winners, "All the Way" is by far my favorite. But "Call Me Irresponsible"? I'm surprised it won over "Charade" and "More" (theme from Mondo Cane).

Warning, following is a post by a proud mother :)

It would be nice if I googled Craig and found something regarding his Peace Corps work, but no such luck.   At the end of this month he will be running, with a few other volunteers, a special camp for girls:

"Girls Leading Our World" (GLOW) camp will host 20 young women chosen on the basis of an essay contest held in several local communities. Participants will attend the camp free of charge. They will represent the diverse social, economic, and regional backgrounds of Romania. Participants will be encouraged to network with fellow campers in order to promote the idea of diversity in Romania and enhance resources for participants in the future. All of Camp GLOW programming will be held in English, thus enhancing participants' language skills in order to facilitate a cross-cultural exchange with their American counterparts. In addition to promoting cross-cultural exchanges, Camp GLOW will strive to increase the participants' proficiency in a language that will expand their horizons as Romania moves toward an expanded role in the world community. Camp GLOW will focus on improving leadership, teamwork skills, and self-esteem, while also attempting to improve understanding of the various social issues facing Romania and the world today such as Diversity and Tolerance, Domestic Abuse, Gender Issues, Environmental Responsibility, Conflict Resolution, and Goal Setting among others.”

Those Google searches are fun - I was 5 last birthday and live in Yorkshire.

Must try for my "birth" name instead later.

Never apologise for being a proud Mother. Warning not necessary at all.  Proud sons too I would think.

Pace, DR Noel, but I am going to disagree with you about your various periods of musical theatre.  It's my belief, from the turn of the 20th Century to the present, that musical theatre has always comprised three basic forms:
  1.  operetta
  2.  musical comedy
  3.  review

These forms are ever-changing but ever-constant in their attitudes if not their appellations...
This is one of the best analysises...analysi...uh, let's start again...

This is one of the best ideas I've come across for analyzing musical theater.  Thank-you.

I hope there are no side effects to googling yourself - just tried it with the name on my birth certificate - nice to know I was stunt bus drive in the latest Harry Potter Film.

Jane, that sounds like an absolutely great camp your song will be helping to run.

Make sure that his good deeds don't end when/if he returns to the States :)

Pace, DR Noel, but I am going to disagree with you about your various periods of musical theatre.  It's my belief, from the turn of the 20th Century to the present, that musical theatre has always comprised three basic forms:
  1.  operetta
  2.  musical comedy
  3.  revue

But that is my belief, too.  Those three types of musical entertainment have existed for nearly 150 years.

My five period of musical theatre are meant to give students an historical perspective, and help them to understand why we insist they perform material that's deeper than Eurotrash, enduring standards (from the musical comedy period) and, the best stuff to act, Golden Age material.  The cabarets next week weren't supposed to have anything written after 1980 (but, for good reason, we let a few squeak by).

The clearest difference in periods is from before and after Oklahoma.  It truly changed everything.  But I also see a great difference in shows that followed the season of Company and Jesus Christ Superstar, and those before.

Thanks for the pic offer JRand, but I can't email out of my phone-camera. Something is wrong, but I didn't have more than an hour to spend at AT&T, so I left. I'll talk to them again on the phone and fix it when I have time.

Google makes me out to be a guy who is *THE* supply chain manager for Woolworths supermarkets out in the midwest.

All this talk of pie and I forgot all about the apple crumb pie that I have in the fridge.  I just wolfed down a slice.  Not bad.  Maybe tomorrow I'll get a pint of vanilla ice cream and have it a la mode.

SWW -- Do you have a good recipe for Tamale Pie?  My Mother's recipe blended the corn meal into the casserole, and it was wonderful.  Unfortunately, all of my Mother's recipes got sold at the estate sale by mistake.

Thank you everyone for the compliments on my photo.  Does that mean that you all thought that I was actually out of focus in real life?

My sister has a dog (Murphy) and EVERY time he farts, he surprised himself!  It's as if he has no idea what just happened.  It's hysterical!

Minx does that too!  Of course she's surprised a second time when she sniffs and decides that the spot she had been sleeping in is no longer her happy place.
