But I think I know who the stalker is.

He's a producer. He's too "busy" to make small gestures. Like thank you.

So, knock me over. Office depot just arrived and carted away the damaged table.

Good morning, all! I am on pills and needles today wondering if Office depot will show up and cart away their mess.

I slept well last night. i've been rereading the book about the stage designs of William and Jean Eckart, which is full of stupid errors by the author, who should knew better as a theatre person: orchestrator William Russell Bennett, actor Robert Roundsville are the two big clinkers. Still, the book is gorgeous to look at, and the Eckarts' comments are both informed and entertaining. So, i read far too long last night and as a consequence slept in.

Does the book mention the McNay Museum here in San Antonio? It has a collection of Eckart designs. They even staged a revue if songs from musicals that the couple worked on. Sadly, the organizers were too enamored of Maggie Flynn.

It lists the sources for all materials, so I'm sure it does. The book is now out of print so I'm glad I purchased it new.

Gee, um, nice black stage floor there, DR Jrand64. It adds so much!

Wednesday morning greeting from LAX! We're here until about noon (PDT) and will then be on our way to Cincinnati. This place is mobbed!

Thanks for all the travel vibes - so far they're working like a dream!

Ginny · « **Reply #48 on:** July 01, 2015, 10:34:20 AM »

DR Ben, thanks for posting the photo. The SF office was quite hospitable and my visit completed my circuit of all 5 FC major locations. Until NY moves, of course. Then I'll have to make a pilgrimage to the new location.

Kate is a delightful young woman who refers to me as a "Hall of Famer" network supervisor. Nicer than calling me an old-timer!

Ginny, your trip to CA/SF has been noted by someone in the San Francisco office on our internal Intranet. Kate Tkacik posted the picture.

That's a great picture! Is the woman to Ginny's left wearing a dress with books on bookshelves? That's pretty cool, too!

So, DR Ginny, did you encounter anyone from the Packard Humanities Institute?

DR Elmore, I think they had an exhibit at ALA, but I won't know for sure until FedEx delivers my big box o' swag. I included in that shipment the 350-page program book with the exhibit directory in the back.

I do remember seeing a nice Packard appreciation wall at Monterey Bay Aquarium.

Ginny · « **Reply #53 on:** July 01, 2015, 11:03:20 AM »

Yes, DR George, her dress had books all over it. Everyone was admiring it.

Jrand73 · « **Reply #54 on:** July 01, 2015, 11:03:27 AM »

So true DR CHAS SMITH.....but the time is coming.....

There's a Packard car museum in Dayton, OH.

Ask BK Day:
Bruce, have you decided if you're going to audition for that play?

I'm not - no time.

I'm up and finally got eight hours of sleep, maybe even a bit more than that. Must go do stuff now so I'm ready for the two o'clock rehearsal today.
