I was fortunate early in my journalism career to have interviewed Rosemary Clooney five times. Great lady as well as an incomparable vocalist.

Fantastic!

Favorite Clooney songs include Hey There, Mambo Italiano and that Saroyan classic, Come on a My House. One of her best covers was Why Shouldn't I from Jubilee, which Elmore mentioned this morning.

When I awoke at 6:15, I dreamed I was in a reading of Cole Porter's 1935 show Jubilee.  I wish I were in a recording studio recording it.
I wish you were, too.

Good morning. It is a glorious day here. It was only 81 when I started on the trail. And 83 when I got down three hours later.

I love Rosemary Clooney.  Hey There might also be my favorite song of hers.

Did the pick-up, which was actually about five minutes from where I grew up.  Took forty-five minutes to get there, and twenty to get back.  Go know.

Then I had an omelet and an English muffin.  In about thirty minutes or so I'll do a jog.

The big furniture switcheroo is almost complete and I now have a computer desk that does not face the morning sun.  And my books have all been dusted and reorganized.  Still can't part with many, but that's another story...

The main problem with this election is thatI am unfriending FB friends nonchalantly.  For good.  Forever.

It is my goal, DR Elmore, to get through this election season without anyone knowing how I feel about the candidates or how I plan on voting.

And I am home!  Sightly tipsy from one Manhattan and a tasty cheeseburger.  My friend Steve Young, whom I have not laid eyes on since March 1974 when two Middletown friends and I crashed at his apartment in Chelsea, came to today's reading.  After the show, he, DR ChasSmith, Brent our MD, DJ my collaborator and I went to a local bar bor dinner and a drink.  It was quiye a lovely event.  Two if DJ's friends joined usw.  It was quite festive, and i am thrilled the reading went as well as it did.

I will let DR ChasSmith report on the reading.

I thought things went really smoothly for a 29-hour rehearsal period, and the cast came through amazingly well, even with several inopportune brain farts.

There were some beautiful moments.

Nice photo, DR Elmore!  I'm glad to hear things went so well and that you had so many friends there.  Wish we'd been among them!
