Nice lanterns, DR John G.

Wanna wash your peanut brittle down with green juice?

DR RODZINSKI I emailed you a link.

It is 26 degrees heading for 35 degrees.

I slept in this morning, and it was quite nice to hunker down with Thatch, who loves to cuddle. Around 2:15 this morning, accompanied by Stella, I had an emergency run to the bathroom that I fortunately made. When I got back to bed, I decided to turn off the alarm and sleep late as I wanted. So I did.

I have always done my own rehearsal schedule.....and other directors I have worked with have done that also.

Interesting.

I hate it because you have to work around "conflicts."

Jrand74 · « **Reply #19 on:** January 26, 2025, 05:53:30 AM »

Don't get me started.

DR RON PULLIAM'S post made me hungry.

Today I am possessed by A Rage To Live.

I will be raging to live all over the place.

First thing this morning, I need to schedule Access-a-Ride for the appointment I missed last week. After that, I must take the trash and recyclables down to the basement. Then I will work on my iTunes mess, fixes to the A&T Book 2, or my taxes. Decisions, decisions . . .

Jrand74 · « **Reply #23 on:** January 26, 2025, 05:55:35 AM »

I knew about the Monopoly/Landlord kerfuffle.....

Bruce Kimmel's Demos.

That sounds like a fun board game.

Speaking opf A & T Book 1, I got a lovely email from my publisher. After apologizing for the delay, he wrote:
. . . you should know that your book is the last outside title that Moreclacke will publish, and I intend to go out with a bang. Kristine[his wife] firmly believes that A&T will be very successful and who am I to disagree?

That's nice, DR elmore3003.

I've always done my own as well. I like it. Of course, with recording, there are only occasional hurdles since the singers are hired for a certain number of days and expected to arrive knowing the material. In 2001, when John McGlinn recorded Babes in Toyland, we got to London and the soprano hired to sing the role of Tom-Tom arrived with such a cold and vocal issues and she was paid off and replaced immediately. In 1998, recording The Most Happy Fella in London, our Tony, Louis Quilico arrived thinking he remembered the score from singing the role before. We ended up, for the most part, recording his orchestra tracks and giving him several months to relearn the material. He was a very nice man and once a great baritone, but . . .

How could I forget "Goldfinger?" I loved the movie and was crazy about the song. I drove my parents mad when I got the sheet music and wouldn't stop playing it on the piano. WThen, when the soundtrack album was released, I played that sucker to death.

That's nice, DR elmore3003.

Sure is! I like Robert, and I hope Kristine's right.

Since I wrote it over five years ago, there's been a plethora of cat pages o Facebook and Instagram, and I would hate for the book to get lost in the shuffle. The "cat pages" I follow include:
Elie the Hallway Cat
Tiger JoJo
Badger.Dot
BackpackSeven
Princess Honeybelle
Penny the Talking Cat
Fitzcapades,
Loki Does Tricks
Liebchen.Travels
Fisher the Maine Coon Cat
George the Stourbridge Junction Cat
Misty the Moo
I find them all fun and clever. Much of the material is wonderful. It's sadly cut down on my own writing time because I don't want to be guilty of stealing material from any of them.
