Is it horrible of me to be amused by the concept of a CD of "dead girl" songs? Oh well, amused I am, horrible or not!

Not nearly as horrible as pondering "why" you might be amused. Let's agree that you're amused and let Tom Cruise worry about the Scientological aspects of it (since psychiatry has been exposed by him as a fraud).

My goodness. Usually, when I come back to the forum in the late afternoon there might be two pages of posts to catch up with. Today there were four pages. Some folks have been VERY busy.

I'm sure bk will be pleased.

Yes, I read about Matthew Morrison leaving PIAZZA in late August, so maybe David will be the permanent replacement.

Watched a STAR TREK episode this afternoon, and the guest stars (playing older children about to become adults) were Michael J. Pollard and Kim Darby. This was a first season episode, so it was obviously right before Michael made his big splash in BONNIE AND CLYDE.

Amazing how these folks that got to be famous later turn up in these episodes from time to time.

According to the AOL thermometer, it hasn't quite gotten to 100 degrees today (it's at 98 right now), but the air is as dismal as predicted. Not a day to be outside if one can help it.

I remember Rex Reed writing a report of the 1968 Oscars when Martha Raye got her special award, and he commented that poor Martha tripped on the monkey fur she was wearing as she walked out to receive it. Knowing what a cut-up she was, I wonder if she tripped deliberately. I did watch the Oscars that night, but I have no memory of that.

Once again, I'm going to try my best to remember to watch RENO 911! tonight. This Tuesday night time slot has been a pain all season. I'd certainly love to know Comedy Central's rationale for moving it from after SOUTH PARK on Wednesday.

Congrats on your new, upcoming role, DR Jed. I know you just got cast, but do you know the performance dates?

I haven't done a play in a long time (three years - MY THREE ANGELS was the last one), and the last time I did, I realized that despite all the choreography and needing to keep your voice in shape and as disease-free as possible for performances, I prefer doing musicals to plays.

Matt H. · « **Reply #160 on:** July 26, 2005, 01:16:57 PM »

And the ridiculously fictional EMPIRE ends its run tonight, too. I'll stay with it to the bitter end, but I wonder if HBO's ROME is going to be any truer to history?

Ron, Ben got all the facts right about me and Martha Raye and her Jean Hersholt Oscar. I can't believe I misspelled her name. Must've been a typo.

Rodzinski, I've got a couple of Joey Dee and the Starliters albums. One, "Doing the Twist at the Peppermint Lounge" which has their big hit the Peppermint Twist as well as a fairly rollicking version of Shout and the soundtrack of their movie, "Hey,Let's Twist".

Meanwhile, in ALIAS news, I got this off the web:

"Jennifer Garner's character on Alias, Sydney Bristow, will be expecting a child this fall with Vaughn (Michael Vartan, series mastermind J.J. Abrams confirmed. The star, who's pregnant in real life with Ben Affleck's baby, is expected to be in every episode next season. "

I should have put 2 & 2 together.

Rodzinski, does the "dead girl" compliation have on it, "Patches" by Dicky Lee?

Thanks one and all, all and one. I'm rather looking forward to it. I know musicals will always be my true joy on stage, but I am curious to do a play again, just for a change of pace.

Matt - We open Sept. 9, run through Oct. 2

Tonight's Big Brother 6 (and has DR Jennifer dropped off the face of the earth or what???) will be the Veto Competition, which will be VERY exciting to many viewers. We should also get the Veto ceremony, which, again, should prove HIGHLY exciting and entertaining.

Of course, all this happened Friday and Sunday and, although it was blocked out of the 24/7 feeds, you still find out what happened.

The house is in TURMOIL, and it's extremely fun to watch the live feeds and all the high drama and feuding and sniping.

Those who are following the action via the CANOE! Jam site are up-to-date and pretty much know what has happened, but even that site can't deliver all the wrongheaded notions some folks have been perpetrating and using to rile up other folks. It's a zoo in which the hyenas are running around braying while the wise monkeys sit in their cages and wait.

I had a delicious grilled halibut for lunch today, with steamed veggies and herbed rice.

Lots of yummy in my tummy!

Ginny, Cincinnati Playhouse-in-the-Park is one of my favourite regional theatres. Spent many a happy hour seeing theatre there. I think it's a great venue. I was sort of an habitue of the place when Word Baker was Artistic Director. Got to know him slightly when he attended some theatre conferences when we were in college.

DR Charles Pogue - I, too, enjoyed many performances there back in the mid-late 1970's. The Playhouse looks great - I hadn't been there in ages. Yesterday's event was held in the Shelterhouse and was socio-political (not theatrical). Being in that space really made me want to attend performances there again and I even felt some twinges of wanting to perform (not there, of course)

Hey! I see a slew of regular folks logged on.

This here chicken ain't no solo act!

Let's get some squawkin' goin' on!!!

Rodzinski · « **Reply #177 on:** July 26, 2005, 01:35:05 PM »

Pogue- The Twist collection has both those Joey Dee tunes, plus:
Twistin the Night Away
Dear Lady Twist
Transylvania Twist
Franz Liszt Twist
Oliver Twist
Twistin' Postman
Whistler's Twist
and 20 or so more. People just milked the hell out of that twist idea, didn't they? Did you know Joe Pesci was one of Joey Dee's Starlighters?

As for the "Dead People" collection, "Patches" is on there. A classic.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #178 on:** July 26, 2005, 01:37:54 PM »

As inspiration, we haven't gone to double-digit pages in posts since June 10.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #179 on:** July 26, 2005, 01:40:12 PM »

So let's go ahead and get to 7 pages...
