Fill-in-the-blank of the day for everyone: It's not Thanksgiving dinner without __________.

In other words, what single dish makes Thanksgiving dinner for you?

Sweet potatoes

And that's recent. We didn't have them when I was growing up.

BK, thanks for the "Umbrellas" report. Did you get it from Amazon.fr (in France)? I found a listing for the Arte Video release and will order it soon.

Both Blu-rays (Les Parapluies de Cherbourg and Les Demoiselles de Rochefort) have been ordered! They're supposedly going to arrive by the first week of December...we'll see about that. I've ordered a couple of things for my work that were never received, somehow got returned to Amazon.fr and cancelled/credited. I don't know why.

Ginny, my nephew and niece receive the "off the floor" Playbills unless there is a fresh pile sitting unattended by an usher. Then I will take 2 off the top. I always make sure the off the floor Playbills are not beat up or torn but I'm always surprised at the number of people who just leave their Playbills on the floor as they leave the show.

DR Ben, I'm sure your nephew and niece appreciate the Playbills. I, too, was surprised at the ones that were just casually tossed aside.

Topic of the Day:

In my CD player at work: the original 1-CD recording, "Songs from Ragtime" and then the 2-CD original Broadway cast recording of "Ragtime."

A co-worker of mine asked if I had a recording and/or the sheet music to "Back to Before"...of course, I did! I loaned her the OBC CD and the songbook. She said that she doesn't have the belting voice to be able to sing "BtB," but she really wanted to hear the whole 2-CD recording. That got me thinking that I hadn't heard it in a very long time, so now that I got them out of my garage, I want to listen to them. So I am.

Picked up a prescription and delivered it to Mom. She's in pretty good shape, considering what she went through yesterday.

And does DR MATTHEW have a show that is opening tonight as well? I can't keep up with all the shows and entertainment that HHW produces!

Thanks DR JRAND - we opened The Little Mermaid Jr last night. It was fine

Went to the new ~~Comcast~~ Xfinity store today and picked up my first ever DVR. It's downloading/programming itself as we speak.

How many years did this take??

Don't answer that.

Funny you heard it on the news and we missed it.

I doubt if I will be watching anything this weekend. I'll be spending the 3 days at the Wizard World Austin Comic Con, and I'm sure that I will be so exhausted every night after I get home that I'll just fall into bed.

This is something I've never done but think I would enjoy doing.

Some shameless self-promo for me, Skip and sometimes-DR Julie:

We had our table-reading of VIVA MAX!, our new musical based on the novel by Jim Lehrer, was presented for an invited audience yesterday aftrenoon. The musical has a book by Julie and me, and music & lyrics by Skip.

Mr. Lehrer gave it a standing ovation and made a lovely, touching, funny speech at the end.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
