Danise you bring back memories of preparing for winter storms when we lived on the east coast. Oh yes, the market was usually busy.

DerBrucer thanks for the tip. I checked if there are spaces for an easy fix, but no such luck.

George your method of url just takes so long I haven’t tried it yet.

Seems to be working now.

Pruning. Got it. It's a word I've never used before and probably never will again. But you never know...
It SHOULD have a double "n" - so you could prune one off...

For years I thought that "nuptials" was spelled "nuptuals"... Back in the days when secretaries would type scripts at the CBC, I would get my scripts back with "nuptials" spelled correctly (back in the days before spell-checkers, when secretaries had to know how to spell) -- and I would be incensed that they misspelled a word I had given them spelled correctly!

~~~~~ Better back vibes to DR Elmore.
~~~~~ Mild storm vibes to Danise

I was in a hurricane once. It was scary knowing it was coming, although the storm wasn't too bad when it actually arrived.

I went to Puerto Rico after Hurricane Hugo for disaster relief, so I saw firsthand what a BIG storm can do.

DRLaura did you go as a volunteer? With a group or on your own? Did you build houses?

Jane, I went with church folks from around the country. We worked in Red Cross centers. I've also done a flood, forest fire, and toxic fires. I was on call to go to LA last fall during the fires there. Sometimes it's after the disaster when the parents need to do paperwork without distraction; sometimes it's to work in shelters during the disaster.

Jane · « **Reply #130 on:** August 11, 2004, 07:09:31 PM »

DearReaderLaura that sounds very rewarding. Where do you stay, in the Red Cross Stations?

I would think a city as large as LA would be capable of recruiting locals for assistance with the fires. I was there at the time. We were very concerned my niece wouldn’t make it to her mother’s memorial service. Fortunately all went well.

My question for ASKBK day....what is the first movie set you were on? What were your impressions and how did it come about?

I was taking a break from job hunting and having lunch in Griffith Park in Los Angeles, on the Valley side, in a section called "Travel Town." (For those unfamiliar with Griffith Park, think of it as the Los Angeles version of Central Park, but not as square, and not as landscaped.) A film crew had set up around one of the old locomotives on exhibit there, and I recognized Peter Falk, in his Columbo raincoat, and David White (better known as "Larry Tate" on the sitcom Bewitched). Being a Los Angeles native, I didn't oogle as much as a tourist would have, and this time my non-oogling was to my detriment, as I later learned it was indeed a Columbo episode being filmed the director of the shoot was former Prisoner creator/star/director Patrick McGoohan.

Appreciate the time and cleverness put in by some of the Hainsies. I'm just not interested enough in computers etc to even bother learning how to do much at all. I am still in awe of those of you who bother to and apply the knowledge with such apparent ease.

...Jenny's I'm Breaking Down turned out to be a terrific choice. No song in either of the evenings got more laughs, and she basically brought down the house. This masterful performance, I must add, was entirely crafted by DR Jenny herself. All the direction she got (at least while I was present) was an argument against using a paring knife on stage to cut a banana. The audience went crazy for it, and I think they would have all run up on stage en masse to embrace Jenny and carry her on their shoulders if they didn't know she was holding a real knife.

As those who truly know Jenny will tell everyone else, never ever defy her when she is armed with a paring knife.

Congrats, Jenny!

Yes, I knew those upcoming releases from Universal were coming, and I'm excited about them

Anyone remember the NIGHT GALLERY episode where Richard Thomas played a "sin eater." That episode made me sicker than anything I have ever seen on television - meaning that it upset me so that I got physically ill. Beautifully done, but just the idea of it and the depiction on TV were SO real. Really freaked me out.

One of my favorites is The Messiah on Mott Street with Edward G Robinson. I hope this is included in the set.

Now for some comments on BROADWAY'S LOST TREASURES II.

I enjoyed the show and liked the fact that not every number was a golden oldie from a classic show but rather some interesting and different things: AIN'T MISBEHVAIN', CHICAGO, GRAND HOTEL.

Speaking of "We'll Take a Glass Together," I was especially impressed with the video quality of it. The night of that Tony Awards,. we were having a storm, and the cable (analong, not digital back then) was at the mercy of the elements. Reception was pretty lousy, and my copy of that number and the others (CITY OF ANGELS, ONCE ON THIS ISLAND) is snowy. This seemed crystal clear.

Also glad to get that wonderful number for LA CAGE. My 1984 Tony tape got accidentally erased a year or so ago, so all those marvelous Kander and Ebb, Sondheim, and Herman numbers went with it. Ah, well! Maybe one of these days we'll get "Wallflower/The Rink" from THE RINK on a Broadway's Lost Treasures sequel.

Jane, we stay wherever they can find room for us; motels, shelters, etc. In Puerto Rico we stayed in a vacant hospital room.
