Five!

[John G.]

Hello, 0 guests!

[singdaw]

Verily, DR John G., you have given me new things to ponder.

[singdaw]

And I am grateful.

[singdaw]

An idle mind is the devil's plaything.

[singdaw]

I've never tested it out, but so I've heard.

[John G.]

Having a mind? Or merely having a idle one?

[John G.]

I had s grilled cheese sandwich for lunch. It was from the cafeteria here, which made me pleasantly surprised to learn they didn’t destroy it.

[singdaw]

That IS a pleasant surprise!

[singdaw]

Did they serve it with a bowl of creamy tomato soup?

[singdaw]

Having a mind? Or merely having a idle one?

What a waste it is to lose one's mind. Or not to have a mind is being very wasteful. How true that it.
-Dan Quayle

I think I will have a grilled cheese sandwich for dinner.....with some roast beef on it.

And maybe a slice of tomato.

[singdaw]

Would we could go back to a time when that was the worst the GOP could do.

[singdaw]

That sounds delicious, DR Jrand72.

[Jrand74]

Computer mavens.....can you change the color of your cursor?

I keep losing mine in the vast whiteness of HHW and other sites.

[singdaw]

I'm not a maven, but my computer, running Windows 10, I believe, allows me (in Settings) to adjust the size and color of the cursor.

[singdaw]

And I do sometimes curse at the cursor.

[singdaw]

Does that make me the cursee?

[Rodzinski]

Does that make me the cursee?

A cursory glance says no.

My question for ASK BK DAY -

Did you ever meet June Lockhart or Jon Provost?

Yes, both. Jon went to LACC VERY  briefly and was in Carousel in the ensemble when I did that. And I knew June's daughter and so met June at least twice, if memory serves.

I'm up, I'm up - eight hours of sleep.

Elmore, has Jack written any other shows like his revisal of The New Yorkers?

Yes, he wrote the book for the musical Time and Again, based on Jack Finney's wonderful book, that played in San Diego and off-Broadway with music by Skip Kennon, he's worked on a small New Orleans musical, and I think he co-wrote the book for thast Encores! production that contained scenes from Wildcat, All American, Milk and Honey, and others. He's currently workshopping a pops concert based on his musical theatre book at Manhattan School of Music musical theatre program.

So I am home from all my jaunts. My podiatrist is happy, my ophthalmologist says I have 20/20 vision in the eye that was operated on last October and 20/50 vision in the latest eye. She said my cornea is still swollen and my vision will continue to improve. I can already see today's right eye sees better than it did on Monday, so I'm not unhappy.

[elmore3003]

Then Access-a-Ride took me to Cafe 82 where I had a lovely lunch with Jack. He told me all about the theatre he's seen, and I told him all about the things I would love to see. We laughed and dished a lot. It was quite delightful. I remain quite embarrassed about my early and too public dislike for him, and I must say that during the pandemic, while he and I were trying to get that recording project off the ground, I had the most wonderful time working with him.

[John G.]

Did they serve it with a bowl of creamy tomato soup?

No.  I had a tiny side salad.

Sounds nice.

I am the accursed. I am Oedipus.

YES!! Sounds perfect.

[ChasSmith]

And that sounds like a delightful day, DR Elmore.

For The New Yorkers, he had a nice Herbert Fields vibe going in his book. Silly and never interfered too much with the songs.
