But now I must get me to sleep.

Good night!

Morning all.

That is all.

For a dollar less you could get this..........

Good morning, all! I could not get to sleep last night and as a consequence, I am very groggy at the moment. I remember that once I did fall slpee, I had fascinting dreams, none of which I now remember.

I am off to Toyland, my first trip in three weeks. I know that the Man from Philadelpha has been up to something, but I have no idea of the condition of the office, whether my colleague Chris has fonshed the work that brought him into town, or if my possessions are where they were when I last was there. I've got several things I want to finish in the next month so I can move my possessions out of there.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ DR vixmom, good vibes for your x-ray results! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is sad. The police say there was no crime?

Wednesday morning greetings! We're due for some stormy weather and afterwards it's supposed to cool off a bit.

It looks like another sunny day here.

Good morning, all.

Well, this was not the world's greatest sleep, either. First, I really should have turned the a/c on yesterday. I didn't, because we're getting the cool-down tomorrow, too -- in fact, today should be a little cooler -- and since it had only been in the low 80s, I thought I could delay its "opening" till the next warm spell. Well, it was really too muggy for that, and I tossed and turned. Mostly turned.

Also, I'd started playing around with the new Blu-ray of THE NUTTY PROFESSOR, and fallen dead asleep on the couch in front of it for longer than I'd thought at the time. Once up from that, it was really late, which is why I was here in the middle of the night after the notes went up.

So, I don't know what all of this verbiage tells us, except...

More coffee!

$2.98 for secrets like that? IT'S A STEAL!!!!

ChasSmith · « **Reply #20 on:** June 04, 2014, 06:05:15 AM »

I loved the "Hollywood 28, California" touch. Perfect. And I recognized my own 90028 instantly.

Yes, it was zones. I've always remembered ours as "Fort Lauderdale 12, Florida" prior to ca-1962 or thereabouts when the zipcode system was implemented by expanding the existing zone numbers to five digits. Welcome, 33312. Oy! Amost as sad as looking back at the names of telephone "exchanges".

That Sandy Bainum card looks similar to the one for her NYC appearance last fall. I have it here somewhere. It's a good one.

And that's a great picture of the ~~two~~ one of them!

And the zip code was expanded to the +FOUR system in the 1980's.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #25 on:** June 04, 2014, 06:21:28 AM »

And everyone's phone numbers are ten digits now. Nowadays no one even thinks about saying a phone number without including the area code.

At least we already knew our area codes. The only disastrous upshot of the change to dialing the whole number was right here in Connecticut where we are (I think) the only place in the country where you never know whether you need to dial with or without the "1" up front. We dial a lot of numbers twice here in the Nutmeg/Constitution State. See, our nicknames even reflect being conflicted over which thing to use.

Well I don't know what happened, but it must have been the HHW Vibes. Last night's family night was a great success.....and everybody did a wonderful job. The songs and scenes were all well-received....

We have one more run thru tonight and then we open tomorrow night.

Act One clocks in at 85 minutes and Act Two is 59 minutes, so with the intermission, we will be doing the curtain call about 10:45.

Adelaide & Nathan on the front page. I know her dress is wrong for the period, but she is hard to fit....and I finally just said what the hell....find something that fits and put it on her.

We all have to do that sometimes, DR Jrand63. Find something that fits and put it on.
