Happy anniversary to Ginny and Richard from here, too!

[Druxy]

Just received this nice e-mail re: my play, NELSON & JEANETTE.  Makes my day.

Dear Mr. Druxman:

I have just read your play, and wish to congratulate you on the craftsmanship, intelligence, and circumspection you bring to it.  At moments I intuited that my HOLLYWOOD DIVA was perhaps one of your research sources, and if so, I am pleased that it was useful to you.  Has the play been produced much?  It clearly calls for excellent singer-actors who can convey the wit and subtle sophistication your text demands - and such leads are, I imagine, not easy to find today!

With all good wishes,
 
Edward Baron TURK

Happy anniversary to Ginny and Richard from here, too!

Oh my!  And here's another!

[John G.]

JohnG - just sent you an email.   (at your yahoo account)  I couldn't make the PMs work today for some reason.

Got it, Fred. Thanks.

I can't get messages to work on my phone.

[John G.]

Happy anniversary, Ginny and Richard!

[John G.]

Nice note, DR Druxy.

[John G.]

JRand, thanks for the Great Comet reminder. Don't know if I can get a ticket to that.

I'm going to miss a show I really want to see, John Kander's Kid Victory by a few days.

[John G.]

Idina Menzel is going to be playing at the theater where I usher. Tickets go up to $449 apiece.

Really?

[John G.]

Really?

Did anyone else watch the BBC Victoria, beginning this week?  Their music staff made one glaring error: at her coronation ball, she danced with a Russian to the Quadrille from Strauss' Die Fledermaus, which was composed in 1873 or 1874.  Her coronation was around 1839.

No.  Aside from the mistake how was it?

[Jane]

PHONE VIBES FOR DR VIXMOM!

The full explanation is worse than I imagined. 

[Jane]

Cats are the bane of my existence DR TCB.....they are all from HELL as far as I am concerned....we have had a couple of nice ones - including Merlin the Store Cat - but most of them are ungrateful bastards.

Poor Hell Kitty is doing what any affectionate dog would do, going in from the cold.

[Jane]

DR DRUXY, nice email!

I'll second Druxy's mention of And Then There Were None

I posted about my reaction yesterday but no one responded.  I posted three days ago about actor Dick Gautier's death and no one has yet mentioned it.

What I posted yesterday was this:
Last night I watched this new PBS series on the life of Queen Victoria. I liked it but I thought much of it was  choppy, as though entire important scenes and information were removed for length, amd I was wondering about so much of the household plots that were going on, from tallow candles to rats. Was one of the queen's maids really a former prostitute?

[Jennifer]

Good luck DR Vixmom. What a ridiculous situation. Let us know if it gets resolved.

[Jennifer]

DR TCB I would contact the person who the cat belongs to and tell them what has been happening. They cannot expect you to chase the cat round your apartment. That is not your job. I would also tell the apartment's manager that this needs to be resolved ASAP.

I very much liked:
A Simple Plan by Scott Smith
A Judgment in Stone by Ruth Rendall
Thomas Harris' Red Dragon and The Silence of the Lambs

Does DR ELMORE post here anymore?

Does DR ELMORE post here anymore?

LOL! I post, no one reads them (sob).

Happy anniversary, DR Ginny!

[Amy]

I'm still enjoying "Timeless" although I certainly can relate to loving a show in the beginning and then getting tired of it. "Blacklist" was like that for me. I was starting to experience that with "Blindspot" but I'm sticking with it for now.

[Amy]

TOD:
I love all of John Grisham's law thriller books. They're all pretty suspenseful.

Thanks for repeating it.  I did notice regarding the news of  Dick Gautier's passing.  Sometimes I have trouble reading/seeing on my tablet and miss things.

I quit BLACKLIST after the first year.  Same with BLINDSPOT.

I much prefer a series that may have a secondary continuing story thread, but is otherwise a stand alone episode every week (e.g. LAW & ORDER: SVU, CHICAGO FIRE, etc.).

[George]

That sounds like a consumer nightmare, vixmom!  Hope it all gets resolved in your favor.

Ditto and DITTO! Last night, I thought that you had gotten your new phones and the old ones were the ones that no longer worked, and that's why I had suggested you sell them.  This is terrible!

[George]

A Very Happy Anniversary to Ginny and Richard!!

I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable or make you think the comment was pointed at you. I was remarking in general that no one commented!  Some, like DR Amy, respond to absolutely nothing. Usually, news of an actor's death gets all sorts of comments and I was amazed no one responded.
