COMPING THE VOCALS

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

Thundery rain showers here in Bucharest. I've had to take shelter in a cafe, after previously taking shelter in the art gallery!

DR John G. - I think Leslie Ann Warren's performance in Victor/Victoria is one of my all-time movie favorites.     :)

Great pictures. Yes.

I forward a lot of them to my somewhat more boring friends.

Of which I am more boring than they are, sometimes.

But I am always more fun.  Because I choose to act like i'm 5 at 60.

Good morning, all.

Yet another crazy surreal dream that I can't quite recreate in my mind.  Other than that, I guess, nothing to report.

Coffee!

Good morning, all! I slept late. until 8:00pm, and then got tied up with emails about DEAREST ENEMY and ROBERTA, same as yesterday. I'm on my second cup of coffee and thinking about eggs.

Today I am taking a personal day and doing as little as possible. I wanted to go to the library at Lincoln Center and look at Otto Harbach drafts of ROBERTA, but I forgot to take my copyright libretto from Toyland yesterday in all of the madness, so I'll do that tomorrow. This will be a housecleaning day, and the apartment needs it.

Good morning, all.

Leslie Ann Warren, Alex Karras and the rest of the supporting cast are great. Just enjoyed it so much more than the filmed version of the stage play, which I'm glad to have but is a pale, pale shadow of the original.

BK, you made the right choice about replacing the singer. The longer you pondered it, the less time her replacement would have to prepare, and rehearsals to settle things need the cast to be there.

DRcillaliz, welcome back!  I had meant to ask DRvixmom if we'll ever see the return of William Orr. I would like to see that.

And now, let's fix some eggs.

 Great photos, DR Laura. Loved the dragonflies. What type of bird was in the final shot?

Also, great photos, MBarnum.

BK, re: replacing the girl.  I can see blaming her for not knowing her stuff. But I personally don't think that you blame her for what the other theatre did.  You said she was young. I can totally understand why she would not want to burn any bridges with those people.

But that said if she can't be at the rehearsal then i think you are right to replace her.

I wonder if the other theatre would have replaced her if she had spoken up.

So, yesterday around 2 pm, our U-Verse modem went out, and we were told that the repairman cannot come until between 4-8 pm today.  We had no internet access or television last night.

 >:( >:( >:(

I was not a happy camper...primarily because I movie I've wanted to see for years was on TCM last night, and I missed it.

 :( :( :(

This morning, I get up ad the modem is working.  Miracle of miracles!

 :o :o :o

However, I'm still going to have the repairman come out and replace it.

Sorry to hear that. I hate it when stuff like that happens. What was the movie?

My Blu-Ray player is giving me problems, and it will probably be better to replace it that to repair it.

I want to get a player capable of surround sound (the room is pre-wired for it) and also with a tray that slides out.  I hate the players that "grab" the disc and pull it in.

Any suggestions for a good brand and model?

I have a Samsung, but I've never been totally happy with it.

Thanks.

Wednesday morning greetings!  Rainy morning here in SW Ohio and I slept quite late.  Easing into the day before I have to get ready for my dental appointment this afternoon.  I'll get my new crown today.

On the way home from the Y yesterday I stopped to pick up a tuna sandwich at Subway.  While I was eating it, DN/G Lauren texted to ask if she could visit.  She was here for a couple of hours and we had a nice catch-up.  She's working 2 jobs this summer, one of them her first real professional job as an athletic trainer.  It was great to see her!
