Glad that ANGEL STREET had a positive opening night, DR Jrand62! Sounds like there was no opening night cast party.

Hammerstein! -- and only a few weeks after Rodgers! I must email every member of that revue and let them know! No, better yet, I should call them, each and every one. Because nothing has greater impact than a personal phone call when you -- you know, reach out and touch someone.

Thanks to BK for the POLTERGEIST reminiscences.
Here's where I was thrilled and spooked out of my mind upon first seeing it.

Absolutely no idea.

Love the clips of MAME and GYPSY. Good lord, that is a precious look at the real Broadway.

Well, I must get busy on a few things because I need to be ready to drive over to Phoenixville, PA - home of THE BLOB - this afternoon to take in some BLOBFEST. The annual "run-out" is tonight, which always sells out but I grabbed tickets this time, and tomorrow will be spent enjoying the small-town street fair and other events at the WONDERFUL Colonial Theatre.

So, I shall be E&T through the day but will check in late this evening and first thing in the morning.

Wow! Reading all about the BLOBFEST, I am quite surprised that DR MBarnum is not the first one in line!

Safe travels and have fun, DR ChasSmith!

I was never scared by Poltergeist.
But then, I have never seen Poltergeist.

Have fun a blob of fun today, ChasSmith. Sounds like something I'd enjoy, too.

Friday morning greetings! Not sure where this week has gone, but I have a lot of AAUW work to do and some post-ALA follow-up.

Happiest of birthdays to DR Cillaliz!

One year from today we'll celebrate your birthday by eating wedding cake with DN/G Lauren and her ever lovin' Jimmy!

Happy Birthday to DR Cillaliz. Hope you have a great day!

Is anybody else here watching Big Brother After Dark at all? I mostly just fast forward through it when I get up. But last night's was extremely interesting for a change.

BLOB vibes for DR CHAS SMITH. We will need photographic evidence of same.

DVD: Nothing
CD: Nothing
Blu-ray: DRACULA (1958) - rental
I saw DRACULA decades ago on TV but frankly I’ve never thought much of the Hammer horror films. I thought I’d rent this to see if my opinion has changed but I’m afraid it hasn’t. I find it unimaginatively filmed, with static camera set ups; lacking style, atmosphere or suspense. Good examples of well made gothic horror films are the Edgar Allan Poe adaptations directed by Roger Corman, made about the same time as the Hammer horror films, which are vastly superior in every way. I’ve also thought Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee vastly overrated in their acting ability – would they have become stars if they’d never been taken up by Hammer? As for James Bernard’s, “let’s have a crescendo every three seconds” score, the less said the better….

Funny stuff at Filichia on Friday!

John G. · « **Reply #53 on:** July 12, 2013, 08:08:22 AM »

Did anybody watch this soon-to-be classic on SyFy last night? Almost makes me want to get TV again.

Guess LinkedIn isn't such a dinosaur after all.

Just got word that one of the contractors in the department I work in just landed a permanent position with JC Penney in Dallas because someone had found her resume on LinkedIn. (This was one of the twentysomethings who had told me LinkedIn was passe.)

It's great news for her, because her contract was due to expire at the end of the year.

Thank you, Ben. I forgot today was Friday and would have missed Filichia's column.

I'll add my own Swifty:

"I love Larry Hagman musicals," Tom whispered nervously.

DR George I left the book on my wish list. Too bad he didn't talk about his books which would have been more interesting.

I don't know why "Defying Gravity" lifts me up, Tom said loftily.
