Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

It was inconvenient to stay in downtown Detroit tonight when we have to be in Ann Arbor in the morning for the Bar Mitzvah.

George, yes, I first got the thirteen-track version because I didn't realize the other one had been released.  So I could do the direct comparison.  I just find the thirteen-track version to have slightly cleaner sound but really doubt most would notice it.

Elmore, is La Diva Annabelle going to audition for this supposed upcoming film of Cats? Or is she too good?


I just hope they can get the entire creative team responsible for the film, A CHORUS LINE, to make the film version of CATS!

ha!

I’m ushering tonight for William Shatner, who is hosting a showing of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan.

That would be cool!  Hope you enjoy it.


He was an absolute hoot. Stories about everything from Judgment at Nuremberg to Boston Legal. About 500 paid the extra bucks in order to get an autograph, a photo and the heave-ho. After more than 3 hours of Shatner, I had enjoyed enough.

The big surprise was how well Wrath of Khan holds up. Sure, it's silly, but it's also very effective.

I also got to tour our new downtown office. I'm really looking forward to going down there.

THE most frustrating thing about The Swingle Singers is that Philips issued a box set of eleven CDs that included all the original group's albums through 1972.  And this marvelous box set can be found NOWHERE - I mean not even at exorbitant prices - I mean it does not exist anywhere, and believe me I have looked EVERYWHERE.

Oh, my!  When I usher, we at least have stools at the back of the theater.

Unfortunately, he had some new young female doctor shadowing him through the entire appointment.
