Yes, nice to see Cilla here.

[Jeanne]

I did the laundry, but must take care of some cleaning. It won't all get done--THAT I know--but I'll attempt to do some of it.

[Jeanne]

TTFN.

[elmore3003]

Two Moross number to go. Mañana.

[FJL]

Very nice photo and clipping, Jrand!

[Jane]

Here is a picture from 2002, when I played the upstairs neighbor on the make in BAREFOOT IN THE PARK.  Someone in this picture is wearing a wig.

I wonder who was wearing the wig

Nice pic.

[Jane]

Can you tell I'm feeling just a little stressed? Ugh!

Understandably.

GOOD VIBES!!!!!

This morning's drama: our thieves broke into our mailboxes again. Apparently, they are under the misapprehension that we receive our mail very early in the day. In reality, we are lucky if we receive it at all, and when we do get it it's not until evening.

Can a camera be put up so that they'll be caught?

Back from a sad visit to Mystery and Imagination Books, where other dealers have already picked the shelves of anything decent - like little vultures circling their prey.  Christine loved the notes I wrote about the shop, and I walked around looking at stuff and bought a couple of books for old times' sake.

Definitely feeling better.  Had some rice just now and a bagel.

I've been told that it's been looked into and is quite expensive. I can't believe that something more can't be done, but when I tried to discuss it with the manager this morning I got nowhere. She's very locked into old ways of thinking. Also, the problem must be widespread--not just this building. I've spoken to the police, but they were rather blasé. Can the thieves open the boxes at the Post Office? Supposedly they have a copy of the master key. It just seems to me that something more can and should be done. The police even say they know who the couple is.

[Jeanne]

Glad you're feeling better, Bruce. Maybe you need to be a bit more careful about what you eat?

Yes, nice to see Cilla here.

thank you

[Cillaliz]

Time to pack up my five Nicholas Cage heads and go to the party.  It's Raising Arizona tonight. I'm half way tempted to stay home. It's so hot out and these friends are the kind who sit outside and just deal with it.  UGH

[Cillaliz]

I think I'll go and take the Nicholases, maybe have a cocktail and then come home.   We'll see.  Better run

Page three?  Really?

[Jeanne]

And, just because all of you here deserve to be ITK (in the know)...

a detailing service for sneakers!

(Who'd athunk it?)

Actually, rather practical IMHO.

What a bizarre and disappointing Fantasticks BK speaks of.

Why, Lord?  Why?

There are a lot of lousy directors working on Broadway as well. There are as many in the professional theatre as in the community productions.

I saw a community theater production down in Portland, Oregon many years ago where they added dancers...and mothers!  They split each of the father's lines between each set of parents.  I knew the director/music director.  He also did the same thing at a theater in Ohio.  There was a big article in the local paper and the rights holders found out.  They sent a cease-and-decist letter and (rightly) had to fire the dancers and the mothers.

Talk about wrong on every level.

That's just too bad.

And now, I'm off to the theater.  As of this moment, we have 16 tickets presold.  I'm sure we'll get some walk-up.

Be back later.

I think I remember that the script for The Fantasticks states emphatically that The Mute is not to be dressed as a clown.  Not long after playing that role in the DR Elmore-directed production here in Middletown, I saw a Miami University production in which The Mute was costumed in baggy clothes with 3 big clown pom-poms down the front.  Now, we all know, The Mute should look like this:

It is a pain to clean sneakers.

The headband makes me think she is wearing a fall, not a wig.  I had one of those when my hair was short.  I don't know why they were called a fall instead of hair attachment-lol
