TOO: I know I'm missing some things, but here goes:

...

MYSTERIES
Foyle’s War
Inspector Lynley
Poirot
Midsomer Murders
Vera
Pie in the Sky
Father Brown
Grantchester

...


Something you and Richard have in common...

Have you and Richard watched Grantchester? As I was watching it last night, I thought, Richard should be watching this!

Here's today's irritation:
http://www.classical-scene.com/2016/08/25/restoring-classic-broadway-score/

These boys are certainly swelling their egos. The work was originally all done by me in 1997 for Rodgers & Hammerstein Organization andCity Center Encores!.  They worked from my cleaned up parts and scores provided by Roger Grodsky of the Unversity of Cincinnati Conservatory of Music, whose production I believe they ignore in this article as well as his name.  OPERA NEWS magazine in 1998 published an article by John Sheehan about me and the reconstruction.  Encores! used the article in fund raising.

He didn't find the characters that interesting.  He'd add Inspector Morse and Inspector Lewis to the list.

I would like to see a PBS adaptation of Jacqueline Winspear's Maisie Dobbs series, starring Kirsty Dillon in the title role.

TOD:

In addition to many of the shows mentioned, I would include Wodehouse Playhouse, perhaps my favorite TV show of all time, as least the first two seasons with Paulette Collins. Just funny stuff.

The two seasons of Blandings were also cherce.

And so many of the classic adaptations on Masterpiece: He Knew He Was Right, The Way We Live Now, Middlemarch, Our Mutual Friend, Daniel Deronda.

Loved both versions of Forsyte Saga, even if the remake did cut the last trilogy of the novels.

I also loved both versions of Parade's End, even if they both cut the fourth novel, which was so mean-spirited that I can understand why so many people hate it.

I loved Gene Wilder as Leo in the Producers and in Young Frankenstein but my favorite was Willy Wonka. So sweetly deranged.

Orchestrator George Bassman really wasn't sure about the orchestration for "The Crapshooter's Ballet." It's not very good.

I spoke to the folks at Microsoft this morning, and they solved my MS Word problem.

I am currently working with somebody at Apple to solve the iMovie issue.

I am cleaning out old files and throwing away a lot from when I taught "information skills" in the 1990's.  I can't begin to imagine how anyone would teach that today.

Yep.  Since 1:22 EST.  Someone posted that the problem was all over the country, not local,l and the problem is with Comcast.
