Ya think?

I may have set the precedent for putting artists with shows, instead of nightclub acts, with Will Rogers in Ziegfeld's Follies.  Sorry about that.  On the other hand, it was something he changed nightly, so it's not exactly like a scripted stage show.  (Then, again, I understand Gertrude Lawrence was like that in every show she was in, so a second vote for Lady in the Dark is appropriate.   ::))

I would take the wayback machine (but without Sherman and Peabody)...
Technically, that's the W. A. B. A. C.

But my bet is that you did that deliberately, to see how long it would take for someone to catch the error.  Right?

These pics were taken opening night.  They are not optimal, and it never occured to the photographer to shoot the piano player.  And it was before I'd changed the curtain call to incorporate him.

All the pics bring back fond memories. I am hoping the show will be back the same time Grand Hotel is playing in LA

As for the time machine I think I would love to have seen a show at Shakespeare's Globe Theater and a play by Aristophenes.

Equal time. We must shoot the piano player - sans piano - but shot all the same.

Evening all.  I want to post this ASAP in case I lose the internet again.  It was up—you all saw me on line the night before last but when I came home from work yesterday, it was gone.  Most unseemly.

I know I owe some of you e-mails and I need to go back and read everything I missed but forgive me if I am a bit slow.

Today was the day the lady I worked with retired and it has been a very long and tiring two days.  They held the retirement party for her yesterday.  As usual, I made a fool of myself and started to cry.  I’ve been crying on and off all day today as well.  I hate when I do that but no matter how I try not to, I can’t make myself stop. I’m just not good at partings.  Right now, I feel very tired and washed out.  I think I will be going to bed fairly early.  

I have some pictures to share but I have to resize them for the board.  Let me go back and read what I missed, resize some photos and then if it’s not too late (and I still have internet access), I’ll be back.

Great pics of What If

I'm not sure why DR Jed has been so E&T of late...probably just preoccupied with lack-of-job problems...who knows.

Here is the world famous Bayshore Blvd.  Looking at the picture, it is hard to believe that less then a week ago that nice looking water was OVER that concrete fence!   :o  

The whole road was underwater.

Thanks to the US Immigration -- those people do NOT have wrinkles because they don't smile!! -- I visited Tampa many times over the years I lived in Florida!

I'm also quite familiar with Clearwater, on the outskirts of Tampa, where I saw Julie Andrews in Concert....

You needed to know that! :)

I just came home from doing a few errands. Everybody was rushing home for the debates. 32 pages of negotiated debate rules! I figure by the time they go throught the rules, it will all be over.

Following is a link for the best cat nip toys I have ever found.  Since I just ordered a few more for Bogie I thought I would share.

Hi all again.  Decided to go back and read some more.

Congratulations to DR Elmore not needing his crutches!   How wonderful!

Thank you to DR Noel the information about Issadora Duncan.  I knew that she had died while riding a vehicle but I just wasn’t sure what kind and I couldn't remember her name.  I hate it when I have a half memory of something I know I read or heard about.

I guess no one knew the answer to my other question.

I saw the comments about this board and how everyone here gets along together and I would like to make my own, if I may. Part of the reason I think that people get along here is because they don’t pick on one another over silly little mistakes.

For instance, I know that there are writers and publishers on this board and I also know that my grammar/spelling is not the best. I know it must drive them crazy when I use the wrong punctuation and/or word (such as the wrong to/too) but instead of getting all the bent out of shape and calling me down for it they allow me to communicate as I will.

I have seen other boards were a simple infraction of grammar or spelling has caused mass flame wars.

I’m not hundred percent sure as to the other reasons why everyone here gets along so well but I am so very glad that we do. After a long hard day, coming here is like an oasis in the middle of chaos.  

This is become more than a “board” to come and post on.  Judging from the emails, the snail mails, the phone calls and having someone like DR Elmore take some of his time to have dinner with me when I was in New York City, I feel like I have made some genuine friends.

I guess it's just that the people of this board look past the avatars and screen names and see that there are people behind each and every one of them.  I think the people of other boards forget that if you have the power to reach out and make someone laugh or chuckle at something you've posted, you should also realize that you can hurt them as well. "It's just a board.  You shouldn't take it serious." just isn't realistic.  

And in case I haven’t said it, Bruce, thank you for creating this place and thank you for allowing me to post here.

On that note, I think I need to say goodnight.   :)

Clearwater--that's where most of the old folks stay. ;)   How familiar are you with it?

Sad to be all alone in the world.

Debates?  Is that why I'm the only one here?  I have to believe that the entertainment quotient and intelligence at haineshisway.com will be far superior to that of any debates.  I shall watch a DVD and sit in the hot tub, not necessarily in that order.  Perhaps I'll even take a swim since the pool's about eight-two degrees right now.

Bruce if you have more pictures from What If? I and I am sure the rest of the DR would love to see them.

Also
did the new song Born Too Late replace I Don't Need You or Chinese Food In Bed?
