Elmore, my Cole Porter expert friend: in Find Me a Primitive Man, when the gets to the line " ... the gypsy in me," is it the same melody as "The Gypsy in Me" from "Anything Goes"?

Or is that just the way it was sung on the Fifty Million Frenchmen recording?

DR JANE - you don't look anything like DR DRUXY! How could I make such a mistake?

Back at work today.

I have a sore throat.

And I've alternated between being too warm and too chilled.

This is the "third" week of a major cold. I took one that manifested itself Sunday, Dec. 18. It was a doozy of a head cold which promptly moved into my chest. It's now lodged in my throat. I have had a couple of shots and am on anti-biotics.

It just won't let go. Lots of folks around me have gotten sick or been sick in my absence.

This is NOT pretty.

Antibiotics are not given for a cold, even a bad one. This sounds much worse.

VIBES THE MEDS WORK QUICKLY!!

Darrel Karl sends me his lists every year so I did see it - very nice!

My favorites stores have changed over the years, depending on my age, life style, and where we lived. I only have favorite food places here.

Elmore, my Cole Porter expert friend: in Find Me a Primitive Man, when the gets to the line " ... the gypsy in me," is it the same melody as "The Gypsy in Me" from "Anything Goes"?

Or is that just the way it was sung on the Fifty Million Frenchmen recording?

They are not the same, but close.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #74 on:** January 03, 2017, 01:55:43 PM »

And I am home, wet, but home. And they are not sung the same on the two recordings. In "Find Me A Primitive Man," the notes "Gypsy In Me" are V-I-V-I (So Do So Do) and in "The Gypsy In Me," the notes are V-IV-IIII-V (So Fah Me So).

I don't hear that similarity in other recordings, such as Elaine Stritch's or Madeline Kahn's, but I heard it today on the Frenchman recording and just wondered. So, thank you.

When I worked for Office Outfitters in Middletown between 1973 and 1978, the lady who was in charge of the order dept. had grown up and gone through high school with my mother/ During the 1970's she was my superviser and surrogate mother: nurturing, encouraging, honest, everything my screwed-up mother was not. She came to see everything I worked on, and I occasionally forced her to come along, sew something, or paint something. Several years ago, when I saw her in Middletown, she said, "Come back and do another show!"

I've just learned that Peggy Short died today. I will miss her

Elmore - Condolences to you on your loss. She seems like she was a very special person.

I'm sorry, Elmore. Peggy sounds like a wonderful woman.

DR Kerry is in good spirits. Or high on drugs. Maybe both. Send lots of extra-strength vibes. He needs them.

Just made sure that that little slap in the face from the final day of 2016 can never happen again.
