I too disliked the narration in that Hitchcock documentary. If you could watch the clips without it, it would be a fine time. Kind of like Winged Migration, a movie I loved, except for the depressing New Age score.

Playing the recital this evening, and then I'm "free" the rest of the week to ketchup and work on other things.

It's a simple but varied little program that will run about 45 minutes.
Par for the course for junior recitals. Senior ones get bigger and more challenging. But you know that.

Best of everything today for DR Rodzinski and the missus!
"Procedure" days seem so damned challenging. Plus, you've got border crossings and all. May it all turn out fine once you're there!

More vibes for the Mrs. Rodz.

Interesting program, ChasSmith. I love Once Upon a Time.

Interesting program, ChasSmith. I love Once Upon a Time.

Me too, but I wish she weren't doing it twice through. (To be fair, this version is written with a repeat over the whole song.) It was added last week because the program was a little short without it. But yes, we all like it.

Nice billing DR CHAS SMITH

The chain saw with a man attached is doing its work in the front yard.

TOD: Since it's "in the family", I'm fond of the two films my second cousin once removed co-produced with Hitchcock under the Transatlantic Pictures banner: Rope and Under Capricorn. Plus I Confess, where he dropped out of co-producing, but not before meeting my third cousins' mother.

For just movies, Rear Window and Grace Kelly may be my favorite, but there are so many other great ones.

Blackberry bush planted. I think have accomplished enough for today.

Most interesting DR MICHAEL G.

The work is done.

I shall post some photos tomorrow.

For Katy Perry singing "What a Wonderful World" on the rocket ship in space, offering a reprise of our Feb. 2025 Trump-Musk regular-person take on the Louis Armstrong classic.

"What a One-Percent World!"

Coincidentally since we did this video in February, we happened to have a Jeff Bezos rocket ship cameo at 1:20 into the parody video.

In the parking lot watching folks pick up their people. My bride should be exiting soon.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #51 on:** April 15, 2025, 11:23:16 AM »

We made it here in time, without any disasters.

Thanks, all for the vibes.

I hit up a Goodwill here to see if there were any treasures hidden among the records. I was tempted by a 1976 cast album of Clark Gessner’s The Utter Glory of Morrissey Hall done in Santa Maria, California.

At the Pacific Conservatory of the Performing Arts at Allan Hancock College.

Choreographed by Harry Groener, no less.

Allan Hancock College still exists, a junior college up near Jack Benny’s favorite town, Lompoc.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #57 on:** April 15, 2025, 11:33:53 AM »

Orchestrations by Jay Blackton!

Musical direction by Bruce K. Sevy.

All that talent can’t make Utter Glory into anything but utterly boring
