Well, you've read the notes, the notes had skin in this game, clearly, and now it is time for you to post until the gamed cows come home.

And the word of the day is: DESCANT!

Good morning, all.

I’ve been up since dawn’s crack. Today is band rehearsal and sitzprobe for one Mr. Rudetsky’s Disaster! in Stamford. It’s scheduled for 10:00 till 2:00, and I must be there early to “load in”, as we say in the biz.

First stop, gas in the car.

Second stop, coffee and perhaps a breakfast sandwich in the belly.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #5 on:** May 28, 2022, 03:42:55 AM »

And it’s about an hour drive each way.

So I must bid you all adieu at this ungodly hour. Back late this afternoon or this evening.

I had a rotten night of sleep. The cats behaved nicely, but my body did not.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #9 on:** May 28, 2022, 04:01:54 AM »

I slept in an extra 30 minutes until the cats began demanding breakfast,

I have to write an email this morning that will most likely end the recording project. It's got to the point where I feel I'm rearranging those proverbial deck chaiers on a famous sinking ship.

I'm rather depressed at this decision, but I think it's the right one. I will then spend the remainder of the day watching TV and lying around with the cats.

Last night we watched the film of Ira Levin's play Deathtrap, which I had never seen as a play or film. I wish now I'd seen the play because I found the last 15 minutes, once Irene Worth showed up, impossible to decipher on a small TV screen. I may try to watch that again on my computer today.

Darn. That's too bad, Larry. $:-\$

Topic of the Day, Part I: I think the first movie with nudity that I'd seen was The Harrad Experiment. Growing up, we had HBO and I had a little black-and-white TV in my room, and as long as the sound was low enough (no headphone jacks on the TV), I could stay up as late as I wanted and watch what I wanted.

Topic of the Day, Part II: probably the most shocking nudity (but not because of the nudity) was Equus.

And also Short Bus (but in a good way).

George · « **Reply #16 on:** May 28, 2022, 05:09:22 AM »

Topic of the Day, Part III: of course, The First Nudie Musical. And also Short Bus.

Good morning.

I gave up trying to sleep around 3 a.m. And then I found ants in the kitchen.

Laura · « **Reply #19 on:** May 28, 2022, 05:33:19 AM »

So an early trip to the hardware store to get bait traps. And also to have the bucket of paint shaken up. I'll paint the kitchen this morning.

I am having a quiet morning, or I WAS. Slept very well, dreamed nice dreams. But now I hear my lawn is being mowed.

I am grateful for that, but I would have preferred a silent Saturday morning.

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #22 on:** May 28, 2022, 06:31:34 AM »

It should be a beautiful day here today. The sun will shine, the temperature will be warmish and my porch beckons.

Because of the week's several rains, our neighborhood has erupted into a sea of dandelions. The local news has suggested we leave them alone as long as we can so that bees can do their pollen-gathering. Everything happens so quickly that i fear they will suddenly turn into those little seed pods and blow all over the place possibly tripling the next round.

I slept nineish hours.

TOD 1:

Foreign films had a lot of nudity back in the 1970s, so I can’t remember the first film. But the first film with a little bit of everything was 1900. Robert DeNiro, Gerard Depardieu, Dominique Sanda, Donald Sutherland, nudity, graphic sex, sadism, bad accents, violence against animals. I had never seen anything like it back then. Years later, I couldn’t watch it a second time.

TOD 2:

I think a reissue of Deep Throat was the first porn flick or skin flick I saw.

Let’s move on …
