Nice photo, DR JRand67!

Cement is a nice color. Keith just got new pants . When I mentioned I liked the color he said it is called mud.

I got an eye dropper and got about six drops of water down Annabelle before she really started fighting me. I was hoping to get some of her Fancy Feast gravy down as well, but no dice. She is not happy with me at the moment.

She of the Evil Eye is here, getting the lay of the land.

The wind is here, DR JRand, and it’s weirdly warm outside. And we’re under a severe thunderstorm watch...

Exactly DR GINNY same here.....

Jane · « **Reply #41 on:** November 18, 2017, 11:52:44 AM »

DR Jrand I just noticed the pillows under the coffee table. Are they for the new accent chair or will that have plain cement color pillows?

Great purchases and photo, Jrand!

Last nights reaction by Larry Cohen and Richard Sherman is beautiful. Congratulations Bruce.

There's a joke in there somewhere, if only I were Ellie Mae Clampett ... and this were Beverly Hills.

I'll have to pond-er what that joke might be.

I am not sure which came first Mary Poppins or The New York Worlds Fair where I heard Its a Smal World. And It's a GreatBig Beauriful Tomorrow

We had 103 guests at the soup kitchen including about 26 children under the age of 12

With seconds we served about 150 meals ...we did not have a scrap left when we closed the doors at 1 ( we opened at 12)

Hello, everyone.

Jeanne · « **Reply #52 on:** November 18, 2017, 12:35:09 PM »

I'm glad BK was pleased with opening night. Yes, there was a mustache malfunction, which was covered as well as could be, but very few problems as seen through my eyes.

Jeanne · « **Reply #53 on:** November 18, 2017, 12:47:27 PM »

I never worry about BK's shows because he knows what he's doing and always gets the job done. But this show I was worried about. We here at HHW hear all about the problems--the actress who dropped out just before rehearsals, the unprepared lighting guy, the problems moving the sets around. We DRs have insight into BK's shows that most of his audiences do not. We're insiders. I can tell you that none of those problems were apparent last night. The sets were moved quietly and effortlessly. The cast all performed well and were very competent. It was a really first-rate production.

Jeanne · « **Reply #54 on:** November 18, 2017, 12:56:24 PM »

The music is glorious. As soon as I heard OPPORTUNITY sung by Richard Sherman on the Indiegogo video I found it catchy and it stayed with me. But to hear it sung last night was stunning. The show definitely has a Sherman Bros sound. Great songs. The new song, SO MANY EMPTY ROOMS, which was a collaboration between BK and Richard Sherman, is quite touching and fits perfectly.

Jeanne · « **Reply #55 on:** November 18, 2017, 01:05:17 PM »

Marc Ginsburg was stellar. I knew he had a fine voice from the Kritzerland videos Bruce posted some time back. This role requires much more, though. He's on stage for most of the production. His dialogue is all done with an accent, which he held consistently. He sang beautifully and was a joy throughout.

Jeanne · « **Reply #56 on:** November 18, 2017, 01:05:51 PM »

I wish I had a CD of the show. I want to keep listening to it!

Jeanne · « **Reply #57 on:** November 18, 2017, 01:08:04 PM »

I'd love to see the show again, but I suspect that my dental issues will get in the way.

Jeanne · « **Reply #58 on:** November 18, 2017, 01:10:35 PM »

Jack, your new furniture is quite handsome. I have a polo shirt whose color was called "cement." An unattractive name for a color, IMHO. The color itself is just fine; mine is a sort of mushroom or pale pewter. Is that how you would describe yours?

TOD:

I was 3 when I was taken to Mary Poppis. It changed my life.

I learned all of the songs, which sounds strange to have a kid singing about carving his niche in the edifice of time. The vocabulary expansion was immense. And my sister Annaliese taught me how to spell supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.

I wanted an umbrella for Christmas so that I, too, could fly away (same reason I wanted one of those adorable winged monkeys in The Wizard of Oz). I actually got Into an argument with Santa, who wanted to give me a football. I don’t think I ever went back to Santa after that.

A charming story.
