First post from the East Coast!

Jane · « **Reply #7 on:** January 29, 2019, 02:54:20 AM »

You are up early.

TCB · « **Reply #8 on:** January 29, 2019, 02:54:22 AM »

Well, kind of the East Coast. We are currently sailing west by southwest.

Earlier I was feeling somewhat queasy. Not really seasick, but close.

Things seem to have smoothed out, but now I can’t sleep.

TCB · « **Reply #11 on:** January 29, 2019, 02:58:45 AM »

I will try again.

Jane · « **Reply #12 on:** January 29, 2019, 03:00:57 AM »

Good luck. I need to sleep as well.

Yes, DR Laura, the actor in Call Me Madam is our friend Ben Davis' first Encores! show. I recommended Ben to conductor John Wilson, and he played the lead in the BBC Proms production of Kiss Me Kate around five years ago. I think you might enjoy it, DR Laura:

Annabelle is impatient to patrol. She;s climbed onto my computer table and started knocking things onto the floor.

Last night, for the first time this winter, I closed the window. I was find, but the cats were not happy with the cold. Both of them spent yesterday in Annabelle's bathroom washtub, huddled around the steam heating pipe, It was the warmest spot in the apartment.

Michel Legrand fans, here's a download for his arrangement of "folk" songs. I put that in quotes since at least four songs are not not folk songs:

I love me some Thin Mints.

T.O.D.

You mean, there really are different kinds of Girl Scout cookies!?!

Jrand73 · « **Reply #22 on:** January 29, 2019, 06:47:41 AM »

Thanks for the link DR ELMORE!

Vibes for DR TCB......I think since Key West has a LARGE Gay Population & Visitor ratio, the shirts are meant to be ironic and/or informative for those non Bent people who happen to be visiting.....

Jrand73 · « **Reply #23 on:** January 29, 2019, 06:48:32 AM »

I don't like Girl Scout Cookies....they are too small and expensive....not enough in the box.

I like Snickerdoodles and Animal Crackers and Ginger Snaps.

Jrand73 · « **Reply #24 on:** January 29, 2019, 06:49:43 AM »

It is 8 degrees with a wind chill of below zero. Tonight and tomorrow there are below zero temps predicted with wind chills of nearly 40 degrees below zero....

The wind chimes are playing a nice tune this morning.

I have seen Green Book and Can You Ever Forgive Me?

I liked both films a lot and certainly the Oscar nominations for the three lead performers are deserved.....Rami Malik I guess is the favorite for Bohemian Rhapsody, but the two guys from BOOK are terrific. And Glenn Close seems to be the favorite in the actress category....but Melissa McCarthy is excellent.

Like DR KEVINH, I am interested in reading the book now.

I just finished reading My Life With Cleopatra by Walter Wanger & Joe Hyams.....a sort of journal of Wanger's travails in producing CLEOPATRA starring Elizabeth Taylor. I remember reading an excerpt of it when I was 13 or so in LIFE magazine.

It is most entertaining....although my favorite story is not included.

A large painting of Taylor & Burton was being painted on a billboard OR side of a theatre in Hollywood in anticipation of the opening of the film....Fox received a call from Rex Harrison's agent reminding them that his image had to appear wherever Taylor/Burton were represented.... The painters were called back, and Harrison suddenly appeared behind them.

I would guess it was the same illustration that was on the soundtrack LP.

Tuesday morning greetings! Oh, yes, it's cold here today and supposed to be even colder tomorrow. Rebecca and I were supposed to meet for lunch today, but she's not feeling well. I'm sorry about that, but glad to stay in.

Back to RENT on Fox - we watched the first and last hours and flipped to NCIS: LA in the middle. My favorite part of RENT was the cabinet of drafting drawers in the apartment set.
