Nice link DR ELMORE!!

Congrats to MR BK on casting the LA Show!  I also enjoyed the wrestling link.  I think each location had its own Ricky Starr like wrestler.....I am trying to remember the name of the Indy wrestler......Ricky may have come through town a couple of times.

Dental vibes for DR VIXMOM.

The best Willy Loman since Debbie Reynolds!

I'm with VIXMOM on this one....I don't like the show.  I can understand its appeal to performers.....but the audience not so much.

TOD:

Dustin Hoffman: (I don't like him much as an actor, but several people here on HHW have commented on how nice he is and how professional he is to work with, I don't MIND him quite so much.....he just seems like he is very much like his annoying "actor" character in TOOTSIE)......

I am not an Arthur Miller fan, although I do love The Crucible.  It has real passion and anger. As soon as Willy Low Man enters, you see "Loser" and "Fraud" written all over him.  I will not pay attention.

Tonight, at 7:15 I am meeting Joshie's brother Jeremy and Joshie's roommate Michael Gildin at 441/2. Joshie and John Bell, our host, are arriving at 7:30 and we will surprise him.  Joshie thinks he will not see me until tomorrow morning.  Hee hee hee . . .

Great menu! Scallops? Cod? Salmon? Ravioli? Lobster pot pie?

Great Jubilee stories, Elmore. I love that score and your work on it just makes it sparkle. Begin the Beguine is my favorite song, but there are so many other gems in there: Why Shouldn't I?, A Picture of Me Without You, the Kling Kling Bird in the Divi Divi Tree, Just One of Those Things, Me and Marie.

Marathon Man
Little Big Man
Death of a Salesman
Dick Tracy

Bancroft:
To Be or Not to Be
Great Expectations
Turning Point

I am finally listening to all of the Hamilton cast recording, and I really enjoy most of it. There's a lot to absorb. There are a lot of references to other works, but my favorite thus far has been a reference to John Adams by way of 1776:

Sit down, John, mother------.
