Hmmm....

Barry & Fran Weissler
Mark Burnett
and
Donald Trump

Nothing good could come from this...

Trump's The Apprentice Aspires to Broadway as a New Musical

Although, I guess they could just expand the whole franchise...  The production staff (lighting, costume, setc, etc.) could get their own series.  The crew their own series.  And, of course, the actors too!  I can see it now... "The Apprentice" will become the next "Law & Order" franchise.  How many nights of "The Apprentice" would you like to see during the week?

I'm up, I'm up.  Of course, dealing with last minute contract problems re the show we're recording on Tuesday.   This has happened on every single cast album we've ever done, this last minute crap, and I really thought we'd avoided it this time - I should have known better.  It could scuttle the recording, but I don't think it will.  I must get ready to leave now, but shall return in a short while.

Is DS acting up again?

BUY THIS MOVIE - but be sure to get the DVD with subtitles, the less expensive ones do not have them.

Here Senorita Wences (aka Elenita in the movie) gets a subtle reminder of the rules of the whorehouse-cabaret where she works...temporarily of course on her way to marrying a millionaire lawyer, after she drives the getaway car in a jewelry store robbery.  8)
I thought it was a picture of Senorita Wences demonstrating a new way to polish stairways.

Oooh...

And to sort of echo the trials and tribulations that Little Women went through, there would have to be a separate series for the composers and lyricists.

They could pit established teams against composers and lyricists thrown together at the last minutes.

Just imagine the CLIFFHANGERS!!!

And in the Ultimate Reality Broadway Show twist, Barry & Fran Weissler will actually fire one of the actors after the curtain call at each and every performance!

Equity!  Calling Equity!

And to further keep everyone guessing, the Weisslers also may pull the ultimate "Trump" card, and fire a stage manager, conductor, pit musician, stagehand, merchandiser, lobby bar attendant, etc.

Just imagine the lines at the unemployment office!

And, of course, there's "Donald's Turn":

I had a dream!
I dreamed it for you, Don!
It wasn't for me, Eric!
And if it wasn't for me
Then where are you gonna

It is raining here in Rehoboth.

I hope that BK packs some kind of umbrella, because it looks like it will be wet in NYC for at least a week, as well.

Interesting history...

On this day seventy-eight years ago, on May 20th, 1927, Charles Lindbergh began his historic solo flight across the Atlantic.

Coincidentally, ninety-seven years ago on this day, in 1908, actor James Stewart was born.  Stewart would later portray Lindbergh in a film reenactment of that flight, The Spirit of St. Louis.

Mr. Lindbergh left on his historic flight from an airfield in nearby Garden City , Long Island  -- named for President Theodore Roosevelt's son, the flyer Quentin Roosevelt who trained there not long before his death in World War I .

To commerate this historic journey we Long Islanders have proudly built a shopping mall on the site.

(We did however place a very nice bronze plaque, albeit well hidden, in an out of the way corrider, mentioning the fact that some guy at some previous date took a plane to somewhere from roughly this location)  I don't believe there is any mention of Quentin Roosevelt.  

Boy , do we know how to respect and  share our historical heritage or what?!

Sell your hotels on your land.
But you gotta get a slogan

You can [Point.]

You can {Point. Point. Point.]
That's how some brains are wired.
Me, I [Point.]

But I do it with "You're fired!"tm

What does one do on Liza Dolittle Day?

Well, I don't think one should find a professor and cut his head off.  That would be taking things too far.

Especially since I am grading final exams today.

Firing squads are also out.
