Wow--do the Dans on here know how to coordinate Birthday wishes or what?

You bet. Thank you Dans.

Brent was never married to anyone who has sung on an album. Brent was with someone for many years, but that ended a few years ago, and he is now with someone else.

My recording marrieds include Sal Viviano and Liz Larsen, Charles Kimbrough and Beth Howland - can't remember if there's anyone else.

Oh, yes, Paige O'Hara and Michael Piontek.

SWW I enjoyed reading your personal story on the people at the bookstore. Thank you for the birthday wish and the compliment. We have more birthdays this month, After MBarnum’s is Ginny’s ons the 11th, Tomovoz the 14th, WFO on the 23rd and Maya on the 29th.

Ann I’m impressed with your photography skills.

Jason so glad you could visit today, thank you and thank you.

I dearly wish I had been able to see and hear our very own BK reading, and of course it pains me greatly not to have been able to bow and scrape in front of the Sexiest Man Alive, although I trust that those who were in attendance bowed and scraped in my stead.

Well, I gave him a hug and a kiss!

And I would like to thank DR Elmore for his wonderful "Christmas Card"! We listened to the CD on our trip home, and found it all wonderful.

Thank you! I'm glad that you enjoyed it. It was such fun to finally meet you. Did you get to the Virgin Megastore?

Speaking of The World's Sexiest Man Alive (a.k.a. Brent Barrett), someone a couple of weeks ago (maybe) said that he was married to someone who had sung on one of BK's CDs, either Lost in Boston or Unsung Musicals. I would like to know to whom is he married, so I will ask: "To whom is he married?" Anyone know??

DRGeorge, BB is not married.

BK, I'll see you at Joe's tonight!

DRS SWoodyWhite and DerBrucer, I love the photos. Thanks for taking them.

Favorite Torch song:

"Skylark" -- I don't think I've ever heard anyone do this song badly, which is strange because I think it's a difficult song to perform. My favorite rendition is probably kd lang's on the Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil soundtrack.

My most favorite version of this song is by Bette Midler. It was actually the first version that I ever heard of the song...well, that I took notice and remembered.

George · « **Reply #190 on:** December 07, 2004, 02:33:12 PM »

And thanks for the info on the World's Sexiest Man Alive (sigh). I hope he's happy.

DR ANN keep those photos coming. We love PHOTOS at HHW!

Midler's version was my introduction to the song, too. She comes a close second to kd lang.

Tomovoz · « **Reply #193 on:** December 07, 2004, 02:55:42 PM »

Horses for courses. Frightening thought to me. Midler and Skylark.
For me: k.d. or Linda R. And of course Ella.

Torch songs. I agree with so many of the choices. I think Jerry Herman gave us two of the best - "Time Heals Everything," as Ginny mentioned. And "If He Walked Into My Life" (Eydie Gorme) - that is, before Dan (the Man) gave us his version.

And why did I ever buy him those damn long pants?"

I just requested a copy of the soundtrack to "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" so that I could hear k.d. lang's version of Skylark. There is only one copy in the entire 27-branch library district and two people are already in the holds list to get it...one was added in June and the other in July! It'll be a while before I get to hear this version.

This morning I went on a birdwalk at the zoo, and this is what I saw:

(kinglets are very small and very flitty and difficult to photograph)

Thank you for sharing Dear Reader Laura.
At this moment there are three White Cockatoos sitting outside my window in the rain. This is a demand feeding environment it seems!

Off to pick up Abie from his playtime. Wonder what tales (hopefully not tails) he'll have.

Hope your birth day is going well, dear Jane!
