Miss Giselle MacKenzie was my favorite part of Your Hit Parade - although I liked Dorothy Collins as well ("So round, so full, so fully packed!"

I have a couple of CDs of Miss MacKenzie's singing and they are on high rotation around these parts. 

This is in my top ten.....

Brings to mind the Barry Darin Broadway musical starring Jonathan Groff, as well as Michele Pawk and many others, which will be at the Circle in the Square Theatre in March.

You never know, though.  They've got quite a team working in it. 


"Developed and directed by Tony Award winner Alex Timbers and based on an original concept by Ted Chapin, Just in Time features a book by Tony Award winner Warren Leight and Isaac Oliver"

It was a while ago, but I'd been doodling with a comedy about a character somewhat like me obsessed with going back in time to catch a character somewhat like you in a production of "Dial M for Murder" in the 1980s.  It was turning out too much like "Somewhere in Time" and I'd thought if I made it a full-out parody, it might be OK to be like "Somewhere In Time."  I'm trying to remember why I abandoned it.

What is great is that I really don't have any pressing engagements for the rest of the month.....so I am having some ME time.

That's how I feel. My next appointment is next week for my Shingles, Covid and Hepatitus vaccines.

I think it was the first film I saw after my 1979 move to NYC. What a wonderful movie!

Time travel is fiction anyway, so it could be a fictional version of your production of Dial M for Murder. :)

The votes are in....the pair of keets have chosen the Giselle MacKenzie version of Beyond the Sea as their favorite.
