George, do you actually need those magazines, or can you print covers off the net and put them on any old magazine?

I was thinking about just printing covers, but I don't have any magazines myself, so I'd probably have to buy some, anyway.  Might as well make them the real things, even though this production doesn't set the show in the present. :-\

MY son, David, will be visiting me in Austin later this week.

Haven't seen him in a couple of years.

Nice.  Hope you all have a wonderful visit!

Good morning to all

And I guess I will have to make my next post something special :D

Hopefully, someone can preserve it for posterity!

The Harlem trip took me two hours, and this accounting error will be removed from my account within five business days.  That's what I'm told.  I'll believe it when I see it.

TOD:

I think I first became aware of Burt Bacharach when I’ll Never Fall in Love Again. A radio DJ said who wrote the song and that it was in Promises, Promises.

I'm up, I'm up - seven hours of sleep - got up at ten-thirty, but got involved in telephonic calls and e-mails, then getting the kernel of an idea for the nineteenth book - I've had several so far.

Tuesday afternoon greetings!  Sorry I haven’t been around much lately.  No good (or bad) reason.  I’m getting ready for Stampaway, the big papercrafting event in northern Cincinnati that starts tomorrow.  I’m taking 2 classes Wednesday, 2 Thursday, 1 Friday, and attending the trade (shopping) show with Rebecca on Saturday.

Richard and I also watched GOSFORD PARK 4 times in 4 days.  We’d seen it before, of course, but Richard just bought the DVD, so we watched it Friday.  Saturday we listened to Robert Altman’s commentary and Sunday we listened to Julian Fellowes’.  Then last night we decided to watch again while all the comments were fresh in our minds.

I remember seeing Bacharach's name in the credits for THE BLOB when it was on TV.

I think ....SAN JOSE was the first song that I really connected to him....although I mostly knew him as Angie Dickenson's  husband.....

A question for Vixmom:
don't your coworkers do the same job that you do? Why is everyone so surprised that your job is demanding? WE all know it and we've never even been to your office.
