The omens were not good for me this morning. I got to the bus stop, a location for two buses I can take to 96th Street. After waiting for 15 minutes. with no sign of either bus arriving, I was freezing, so  I came home and canceled my appointment for today. I cannot go tomorrow because of a ROBERTA rehearsal, so I guess I'm going on Wednesday.

And I found my cell phone. It was charging and i forgot about that. Shoot me. Please.

There've been several times where I've set down my phone while doing something and I forgot where I put it.  Fortunately, I've never lost it.  Hopefully, I won't.

What are they saying on castrcl?


Someone started off asking if she was the last person in the world to know Bruce Kimmel was Guy Haines, and it developed into quite a nice laudatory discussion topic of you.

I get the daily digest and everything that I've read so far has been quite complimentary.

Well, my missing cell phone has me all akimbo; I just moved my physical therapy up an hour to 11:15 since i am so unprepared to get out of the apartment.

DR George helped me with this photo from page 12 of the October 1981 issue of BLUEBOY magazine, where the hot new cabaret act "Just Good Friends" was featured on page 12, before the photos of the naked porn stars took over.  We were featured as the thing to see in Manhattan.

While I was working at Tower Records around 1983-84, one of the clerks kept telling me, you look so familiar but I can't think why.  I assumed it was because of the act or from working at Drama Book Shop or the Men's Chorus. One day as I was leaving Tower Records he yelled out, you were in BLUEBOY!

Oy! the things we do for fame!


Great photo, Larry!

The fact that I now clearly remember recharging it last night and that I saw it was charged up when I went to the bathroom in the middle of the night really freaks me out that this morning I had no idea, absolutely no idea of where it was. Oy.



When I charge my phone I leave it on top of my purse so I don't forget about it.  Maybe you can charge your phone next to your keys.

I have a couple of long-life batteries and since they're bigger than the regular ones, they charge on the charger without being attached to my phone.  When one battery is getting low (one bar of power), I put in my other battery to charge at night and it's right next to my bed on a dresser, so I can't miss it.  I swap it out in the morning and am good to go.

DR TCB - I thought I had commented favorably upon your new avatar, but apparently that was only in my mind.       :P

I am wondering if my comments regarding it were also in my mind.  DR TCB I expect you know I like it since you have your beard :)

Got the first blurb for the book - it's wonderful, but I've asked to have two little things changed because we don't want to give too much of the plot away.  So, I can't show the blurb till that's done.

I just caught the joke when Harold and Marian are on the foot bridge and Marcellus get's Harold's attention.  Harold makes the excuse that he's expecting a phone call from Rudy Friml.

Jack, you can't find CastRecL because it's not an Internet site. It's a moderated e-mail list serve, much like the old e-mail sites of years ago at the beginning of the Internet.

The overall theme of the list is musical theatre but there are sometimes off-topic messages. You have to send a note to the moderator with a verifiable e-mail address. He then approves you and you start receiving the e-mail, either as they are sent or you can choose to get one e-mail every day which contains all the e-mails posted that day.

There is a regular coterie of posters (Larry among them) and there are hundreds (or perhaps even thousands though I doubt that number) of lurkers who may post once a year, or less. I am one of those lurkers. It's sometimes very interesting but also sometimes when someone gets a bee in their bonnet it can get tedious. There are some people on the list who feel they know everything there is to know about every aspect of musical theatre. They also feel there is only one opinion, theirs, and that opinion can't possibly have anything wrong with it because it's their opinion. All other opinions need not apply. That's when it gets tedious. If you get the e-mails as they come in you learn which people can be deleted without reading their post(s).

I subscribe to the daily digest.  I find that much more manageable than getting every single post.

TCB I too failed to tell you  how much I like your new avatar ---


my very favorite of your avatars though, is the one where you are bearded, and  in profile facing right. It was from one of your shows, I think, but I am not sure which one.
 


Thank you.  Was it the one from the MTV program?

I've liked them all, but the one Vixmom just mentioned is probably my favorite, too.


Maybe you guys are talking about the Buffalo Bill photo.
