Well, you've read the notes, the notes were hot and bounced, and now it is time for you to post until the too darn hot cows come home.

[bk]

And the word of the day is: DEMEANOR!

[bk]

Welcome, seventy-one GUESTS.

[singdaw]

Good morning, friends.

Good morning, all!

BK, Mordden does not mention Hello, Dolly!, She Loves Me, or The king & I. He passes over the She Loves Me for the London revival recording. I don't know if he's slighting you because he's never heard them, didn't like them, or it's something to do with me, but = as I posted yesterday - it's a very opinionated book.

It's so badly published and edited - no page numbers, a title is often at the bottom of one page while the text begins on the next - I'm wondering if "Sweet Charity" got lost in the rubble or if my copy is missing pages.

The computer is very wonky this morning. It was up and running when I went for my coffee and down when I returned, and I had to reboot it and wait for everything to load in again.

DR Jeanne, the physical therapist I saw between 2013 and 2018 has had a falling out with my insurance company and will not accept their patients any longer. I don't feel like shopping for another.

[elmore3003]

I had meant to post yesterday morning about the Access=a=Ride driver. I saw it on the news Friday evening, and my first reaction was I wonder if it's the same driver who drove off and left me standing in front ofr my apartment. My second reaction was good, maybe the MTA will now take better precautions with applicants.

[elmore3003]

I have to call Access-a-Ride today and book Tuesday's trips.

[elmore3003]

I must take a lot of trash to the basement. After that, I will work on my second orchestra piece and begin to sketch it out.

This is sounding like a publication embarrassment in terms of its physical printing and the lack of proofing and editing -- but also in how NON-comprehensive it is if so many seminal recordings are omitted, whether by accident or opinion. But that's just me, because I go into things like this fully expecting completeness and accuracy in what it purports to cover.

But DR Elmore has also said that he manages to be quite entertaining. I just wonder exactly who or what purpose the book is targeted for. I will enjoy going through it sometime.

Ethan has a multitude of fans who probably would not like him so much if they actually knew him, and it was his growing ego about his successes in the 1980s that first drew me away from him. Then his betrayal on his Rodgers & Hammerstein book prompted my removing myself from his social circle. Between 1979 and 1988, I consider5ed him one of my best friends, and we had some great times. He even wrote a song for my cabaret act "Just Good Friends." It was called "But Does He Know How To Mambo?" and it was fantastic.

[elmore3003]

Still, if I were teaching a musical theatre class, I woulod force my students to read his wonderful Better Foot Forward from the late 1970s, which he now puts down constantly, and Broadway Babies. Both are so much better than his "Musicals by the Decades" books.

Happy Sunday to one and all.  There's a brand new Broadway Radio Show up to keep you cool in this sizzling heat.  Award winning cabaret artist Celia Berk joins me to chat about her brand new album Now That I Have Everything.  We had a great conversation and you'll hear some terrific tracks from the album...check it out!

Good morning.

[Laura]

I walked my usual four miles this morning. It was 88 degrees when I began at 6 a.m.

[Jrand74]

Sunday.....and a meeting of the bored later today.

I think I need to take a Covid test....we shall see what happens.

[ChasSmith]

I can't imagine what it is to live in a region that offers 90 degrees (give or take) at six in the morning. 

My hat is off to you, DR Laura!

I live here because of the lack of snow.

[elmore3003]

My Uncle Jay and Aunt Irene moved to Tucson, AZ, in the late 1940s because the doctors suggested the climate would solve my cousin's severe asthma issues.

Ohhhh!  That's right.  Thanks for the reminder, Laura!
