I like her on the Sound of Music OBC, and a bit less on the South Pacific OBC....but that's horse racing, I guess.I am enjoying reading everyone's lists....and I am sad I did not get to see so many of these folks.....TOD:Ethel MermanJanis Paige - I love the Pajama Game OBC, and I was surprised when I checked the score I discovered her flats were not in the songs....Robert PrestonMartin can be too coy. But she can also be ridiculously funny.

When The Fantastiks came back to New York probably about 12 years ago or so I was able to snag front row center seats for a Sunday matinees. When we arrived at the theatre I was surprised to find that we were essentially on the stage...if we had stretched out our feet we would have tripped up the actors. Tom Jones was playing the old actor and he kept playing to The Vixter who was about 11 or 12 at the time, at one point scooping up handfuls of confetti from the stage floor and dumping them on her lap (much to her delight)During intermission we ran into Elmore who happened to be at the same performance and who mentioned that he was personal friends with Mr Jones.After the show Elmore kindly brought us back and introduced us to the great man himself.A cherished memory.

So it turns out that I am not quite smart enough to figure out these new fangeled calendar thingies (you know the paper ones that hang on the wall and have all those confusing boxes and numbers and days of the week and stuff)
How cool is that?!!!
HEALTH VIBES AND MONEY VIBES FOR DR ELMORE!
Vixmom, are you not getting my PMs - they're not showing up in my "sent" folder and I've had no response.
So I received this in my email today and I immediately thought of Elmore and Georgehttp://link.ikea-usa.com/hostedmessage/message.aspx?2612891.5280343.12339082714.7033
Elmore, has the Da Bird toy arrived yet?
Really? Joshie was nuts over that.
Soooo, are you going to get Petunia?
If Petunia is getting publicity, she will be adopted.
