I have to get my apartment cleaned up before I go to Boise.

Betzy is going to be staying here, and the place is a mess.

I hope I remembered to plug in my scooter.

TCB · « **Reply #124 on:** March 18, 2017, 10:24:05 PM »

Whew! I did.

Let me see, I think George is ushering again tonight.

TCB · « **Reply #126 on:** March 18, 2017, 10:27:09 PM »

I guess I won't wait for him to arrive.

A friend called to tell me that he saw BEAUTY AND THE BEAST last night and really enjoyed it.

TCB · « **Reply #129 on:** March 18, 2017, 10:38:40 PM »

I had mentioned to him yesterday that the movie had gotten some mixed reviews.

TCB · « **Reply #130 on:** March 18, 2017, 10:41:22 PM »

So, I guess he needed to call me back and give me his seal of approval.

TCB · « **Reply #131 on:** March 18, 2017, 10:44:25 PM »

I told him that I didn't write the mixed reviews, I just saw them.

TCB · « **Reply #132 on:** March 18, 2017, 10:53:54 PM »

I still want to see the movie.

TCB · « **Reply #133 on:** March 18, 2017, 10:57:25 PM »

And I am sure I will enjoy it.

TCB · « **Reply #134 on:** March 18, 2017, 10:57:51 PM »

Of course, I like the stage musical.

TCB · « **Reply #135 on:** March 18, 2017, 11:03:58 PM »

But then I like musicals in general.

TCB · « **Reply #136 on:** March 18, 2017, 11:04:23 PM »

I need to switch computers.

Jane, yes, in LA every Rite Aid has a Thrifty ice cream counter.

Back from a mediocre Mexican dinner and perhaps the worst production of Company in history - and I've seen some doozies. I won't be mean in the notes - I'll let Rob do the review. Horrid, misguided direction, stupid set, terrible actors and canned Casio-style tracks.

TCB · « **Reply #139 on:** March 18, 2017, 11:12:10 PM »

I hope I can read Rob's review.

TCB · « **Reply #140 on:** March 18, 2017, 11:13:56 PM »

I love a good brutal review, unless I am in the production.

bk · « **Reply #141 on:** March 18, 2017, 11:28:51 PM »

I don't know if it will be brutal or not - if it was me it would absolutely be brutal.

Joshie and I got a beautiful email from Jack Viertel, thanking us for the orchestrations, and calling us "Irv and Sid," It was really kind. He wrote:
You sent me straight to heaven today, where I expect to stay for the next ten days or so, breaking in to choruses of The Heaven Hop from time to time as the mood strikes.

Your devotion to the cause is admirable enough, but your inspiration and skill go way beyond that. The work is thrilling and I’m very humbled and happy to be the recipient of the thrill.

That's wonderful, Larry! Congrats to you and Josh!

I'm home and have been for about an hour.

The Harmony Sweepstakes was almost entirely filled! All of the groups were really good. One group (a women's trio) was definitely the weakest, but they didn't embarrass themselves. My friend Margo had heard that they just got a new member, so they still have some work to do...but they weren't bad, by any means.

There was one women's barbershop quartet that inly sang two songs in their 10 minute time slot! They got up there and started talking, and each group only has 10 minutes exactly, but their talking counts, so they only got two songs in...but they won!

George · « **Reply #146 on:** March 19, 2017, 12:06:29 AM »

You can be knocked down a place if you go over, so we think that's how they won. Another group that was the audience favorite went over he allotted, so the women's quartet won by default. $:-\$

George · « **Reply #147 on:** March 19, 2017, 12:06:54 AM »

Don't get me wrong, they were very good, but it was a surprise that they won with only two songs.

George · « **Reply #148 on:** March 19, 2017, 12:07:04 AM »

Those are the rules.

George · « **Reply #149 on:** March 19, 2017, 12:07:21 AM »

And since we're so close...
