I may be nuts, but Google Chrome actually seems slower than Safari, and it is of no help whatsoever with You Tube.

I have sent the owner of All That Chat a little e-mail missive - I have been on that discussion board from the day it began - and I have told them I won't be back because of both the idiot and our very own troublemaker who, of course, is right there with him. Who needs it when we have this beautiful site. There is nothing every posted there that is of any interest, really - just idiotic "reviews" and occasional threads that make my blood boil and require response. If I need to rant I'll do it right here where games are not played.

Thanks for that link, DR John G. I wonder if the NY Phil will also release this new performance of Sweeney on CD?

I would doubt it. The last recording was a numbered, limited edition and I understand it didn't sell well. Didn't sell 1,500 copies. But maybe PBS will broadcast it, like "Carousel," etc.They did a DVD of the Sweeney, but it wasn't New York Phil. I forgot the orchestra, but the worst substitution was another Elmore favorite, Miss Victoria Clark, appearing as the Beggar Woman in place of Audra McDonald.

And poor RyHog and dcb will just have to do without me - their poor lives won't be as full, but I'm sure both of these horrid little people will survive.

Sounds like all the problems with All That Chat, including FJL's as well as BK's, are signaling some sort of disintegration of that site.

Are you referring to the LuPone & Hearn SWEENEY conducted by Andrew Litton? I have that but don't see anything indicating a limited edition. I also don't remember having listened to it in all this time!

Elmore's favorite director (not!), Lonny Price, gets to try his hand at Sweeney Todd once more.

http://www.playbill.com/news/article/179883-Bryn-Terfel-Will-Star-in-New-York-Philharmonics-Sweeney-Todd-in-2014-Lonny-Price-Directs

Lonny Price will do fine by SWEENEY TODD; he's lousy with dead writers' works or those living whom he can walk over, like Tom Jones on 110 IN THE SHADE, and I gather that he, Audra, and Gemignani did a number on Jones& Schmidt!

Unless Sondheim dies, he won't do any damage to this piece. Lonny knows that Steve is meaner and smarter than he.

The blood was drawn, i peed, i came home. I'll know more on Thursday when I have my physical.

That's what this is. But mine isn't numbered or anything.

I just baked a delicious citrus sour cream cake. I know it is delicious from all the cake I ate that should have been the rose petals. Alas, the cake is not beautiful as it should be. At least it is yummy.

I've made this cake in the rose pan before and it slid right out and looked perfect. I don't know what went wrong this time.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #132 on:** July 08, 2013, 03:53:51 PM »

The parts that went wrong should be sent immediately to the following address.....

Good morning, all.

This is Monday. Right? Starting with the 4th, my days have been completely off. Hell, for all I know they've been taking advantage of my confusion and sneaking in extra days on me.

Dang! He found us out!

RE: the TOD

I don't think that people should be allowed to bring food to their seats. I think bottled water is okay. But no food. You can eat food before, at intermission or after.

I also think that people should look nice. It doesn't have to be a suit or a dress. But it should not be shorts and flip flops.

Today was the first day of camp (for me anyway, my 11-14 year olds started last week without me) - so I decided to try and get to know them. Since they were already cast (we are doing Beauty and the Beast Jr) I asked them their name, what part(s) they are playing and what exciting thing they did over the weekend.

I think this is the best I've ever heard--

Question to my 11-14 years olds today: What did you do that was exciting over the weekend:

Kid: I watched "Mame" (kid smiles like he's very proud)
Me: The movie?
Kid: Yes
Me: I'm sorry
(kid continues to smile)

Matthew · « **Reply #137 on:** July 08, 2013, 05:34:07 PM »

We are doing The Wedding Singer in the older group. What fun that show is. I'm looking forward to working on it with these immensely talented kids.

I just had a really interesting conversation with the guy who owns our hosting facility. He told me the traffic on this here site, both board and the notes is like no other site they host - he cannot believe how many visitors we get every day - he's setting something up so I will finally be able to see how many visits the notes get, but I think he's intimating that the ten million page views we get a year is very accurate in terms of visitors. Which is pretty astonishing when you think about it, and probably is better than All That Chat these days, where they frequently have nowhere near the number of posts we do. Oh, well - I'm sure ryhog and dcb will be very happy there, although it will be a little sad and lonely for them without me, I'm sure. All their fun taken away in one fell swoop.

bk · « **Reply #139 on:** July 08, 2013, 05:50:35 PM »

Now, get me off this damn page. Meeting with the East Coast Singer won't probably happen until Wednesday now, but that's not for sure yet.

Hi Kevin,

Glad you made it home safely, talk to you soon!

Right On BK!! (Regarding All That Chat).

Oh, and in the comedy department, we got a wonderful review for last night's show and the reviewer specifically mentions (and positively) one of the Jew jokes - so phut to the stuffed shirt who had the problem - my Jew jokes aren't going away anytime soon.

Yes, DR JR&62 I agree, definitely no jeans of any sort for Weddings and Funerals, (Very Disrespectful).

I love getting dressed up. It gives me a great reason to buy a new dress!

DR Ryako:

I can't imagine why anyone would have you dress up in a gorilla or giraff suit.

You are too handsome to be covered up!!

Kate · « **Reply #149 on:** July 08, 2013, 05:58:07 PM »

I am going to watch American Ninja Warrior again tonight at 9:00 PM. My nephew might be on again.

Again, it was so exciting watching him on National TV with his daughter, (My great Niece Sydney).
