Three!

[John G.]

Went to brunch at a little Czech restaurant just outside town. Pecan pancakes, poppyseed kolache, omelet. Nice to get out.

[Jane]

Watching a British series called "Country Matters" that was filmed who knows how long ago. Ian McKellan is a young man. It's a series of stories about country life, and if the first is any indication, it's going to be wonderful.

Did you rent it or is it on tv?

[Jane]

What I want to know, DR JRand63, is whether the Dream-o-Matic will be sold with the store or does it get to retire with you.

Good morning, all! I have a bit of housecleaning today. Now tht the celing is repaired, I can begin my treks to Toyland on Tuesday, so today and tomorrow, following physical therapy, i plan to get my apartment in some semblance of order.

I completely missed the fact that June 16 was my 35th anniversary of moving to Manhattan. Iy was a Saturday in 1979. I was 32 years old and ready to conquer. Today I feel older than God and unprepared to conquer anything.

I don't know, elmore, just reading this page wears me out!

Thank you, DR TCB! It all seems another lifetime and another person!

I hope he keeps it open. Those $35 deposits to paypal should keep him in DR MBarnum's castoffs! And I rely on its observations.

Got it from the library. Back of the box says it's from 1972. Peter Firth, Pauline Collins and Prunella Scales are also involved. Hugh Leonard is one of the writers.

Scales or Ransome?

Vibes for DR Vixmom!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

[Jane]

My library has it.  I have saved the name to check it out at a future date.  We have more than enough on our DVR to watch at the moment.

[Michael]

good evening to all

[Michael]

All the best to our very dear reader Vixmom

My friend Don Carrier was in 54 as Julian who was supposed to be Halston. His part ended up being a cameo. His scenes must have been in the material that was cut. One of the scenes was a hot tub scene with Ryan Phillippe.

Thanks, DR Singdaw!

Happy NYC anniversary to DR ELMORE.

Yes, lovely story DR GINNY.

DR RLP I carry the Dream-O-Matic 6000 around with me....it is portable.

[Ben]

We saw

Prunella Scales

last night when we watched

Hobson's Choice

She plays one of the sisters.

HC is based on the play of the same name by Harold Brighouse.

The Broadway musical

Walking Happy

is based on Hobson's Choice. The song, Walking Happy, by Sammy Cahn and Jimmy Van Heusen, came from the show. One of the stars was

Norman Wisdom

in the

John Mills

role (Will Mossop)

And that is your history lesson for today.

[Ginny]

I'm beginning to wonder if I'm confusing two different goings-away from Middletown...

DR Elmore, do YOU remember the scene in the Martins' driveway?  Or did we do that when Jim left to do CAMELOT?

Didn't Nancy have some sort of farewell for you here at the house?

Aaaaack, I'm getting old!

[Ginny]

WALKING HAPPY, the musical, tried out in Detroit before opening on Broadway.  I saw it with my high school drama club for $2.25.

[vixmom]

Thank you all for the vibes  -  Jane-  several  but  only one  rather large  thingy (technical term  that might be of concern

[Ben]

Not to take anything away from Larry's anniversary but my 34th year in New York will be in August. I arrived on August 28, 1980 (it was a Thursday) and the next day we went to see 42nd Street at the Winter Garden Theatre. It had just opened that previous Monday (August 25th) with the revelation, by David Merrick, that Gower Champion had died that afternoon. They kept the news from Wanda Richert, his girlfriend, until that moment.

34 years later (in August), like Carlotta Campion, I'm still here.

[vixmom]

today I went for a walk and this is what I saw

Walking Happy is one of the many musicals and plays from the 60s that I never saw because I was in Coon Rapids. I know the score from the CD but I don't think Walking Happy is done.

Hey, Jack, you could do it in Indiana!

And I'm back in the office tomorrow for more overtime. At least I'm making money off this and I think, besides paying for the dental work, I'm going to buy two new computers, a laptop and a desktop.

I'm also going to use a gift card (I got it in 2011 for 20 years of employment at the Foundation Center), I think, to buy a tablet which we will use on our trip to the family reunion to Michigan in August instead of taking the laptop.
