I guess I should head in as well.  But I'm not the least bit sleepy.  

Brandi was barking outside so I went out  to see what the fuss was about and she had a possum cornered.  Cute little devil with his rat tail, bright eyes and hissing like a cat.  

I put Brandi in the house and scooted him/her out the gate.  This is a busy place after dark!  Who knew?

Hi JRand!  

I was sorry to read about your car window, MBarnum.  I'm just glad you weren't hurt.  Better they broke into your car then your house and cause you harm.

Vibes to Ron Pullman to breath better.

MichaelS, I hope your feeling better as well.  I'm sorry you couldn't make the NYC trip.

Ann-Margret is the original Swedish Meatball.

TITANIC the special edition and The DORIS DAY SHOW season two are both due this week, I think.

Happy Birthday and best wishes today to Miss Annette Funicello!  ;D

Her special charm escaped few of us.  And certainly she is an example of personality over talent.

She has often said when people would see her smoking in public and express shock and dismay that America's sweetheart would be puffing on a Lark, she would reply:  "I also have three children, so guess what else I do?"

Joe and Virginia Funicello's little girl is not in the best of health now - good thoughts and prayers are always welcome.  :'(

And now there will be two HHW connections to the Las Vegas production of HAIRSPRAY!!  

MAMMA MIA! is a good choice.  I enjoyed it very much.  I am not sure it would be something I would see in NYC - but it was a lot of FUN!!

I know at least 3 DR's who have Annette CD compilations they can listen to today!  Although at least one may be "in storage."

Today I had a typical Japanese (not Swedish) style lunch set with my friend and enjoyed it very much. The set was composed Sashimi (row fish), vegetables in various recipes and grilled fish. And we had a special dessert, a fig courted with caramel with milk Bavarian cream. I think it had a quite strange taste I’d never had, if you ask me.

What do you mean SLEUTH only has two characters!! What about Inspector Doppler Sergeant Tarrant or Constable Higgs! Don't tell me they're not in the play! Now the whole surprise is ruined for me. I am crying copious tears on my keyboard.

Good morning, all!  Wow!  DRDanise up at all godforsaken hours!  This is another first, or is time out of joint?   How are you feeling, DRDanise?

Today, I'm back to the Chicago work, and I'm meeting the daughter of freinds in Ohio later in the afternoon.  She's a freshman at Ohio State University, and one of her art classes is here on a museum visit.

Tomorrow, I crash.

Spoo!  I forgot the TOD.  I forgot it yesterday, but all I had was the cheap porn.

BTW:

With all the discussion of Marni Nixon  I remember in an interview for The Sound of Music where she recounts that she was asked by Julie Andrews to sing the high notes at the end of Do Re Mi. She said: " I love to dub ya, but I just wash my habit"

Saturday greetings from rainy SW Ohio!  I was E & T all day yesterday, because it was quite a day.  Our entire library system was closed for our annual Staff Day at the Dayton Masonic Center.  Many boring speeches, but some good break-out sessions, including one with audio book narrator Tom Stechschulte and the concluding "motivational" speaker Dr. Scott Sheperd.

As soon as I arrived home from Staff Day,  I jumped from my car to DH Richard's.  We went out to dinner and then to Oxford for a concert by the Miami University Collegiate Chorale and the Men's Glee Club (of which DH was a member 40 years ago).  Today, I'm at work, trying to stay awake.

DR MBarnum - I was so sorry to read in yesterday's posts about your car break-in.  Hope everything works out OK.

By the way, at the concert we attended last night both ensembles did pieces by Indian film composer A. R. Rahman and it was announced that he's going to be there for their concert tonight.  Also, on April 22, 2006, he'll be back here in OH for a concert by the Miami University Collegiate Chorale, Chamber Singers, and Global Rhythms Ensemble.

Oh, my gosh! Of course I have one or two or several hundred CDs of his music! LOL!

Good morning!

Overcast here, but cool and much to my liking. The walk was very pleasant this morning despite the gray skies.

TITANIC the special edition and The DORIS DAY SHOW season two are both due this week, I think.

Along with the second season of BEWITCHED, the new LOONEY TUNES GOLDEN COLLECTION 3, DARLING LILI, DETECTIVE STORY, and others My wallet was especially empty after ordering this week's items of note.

I, however, did not order TITANIC. I got the first non-anamorphic release used for $5. That's all I'll EVER need as I don't intend to ever sit through the whole thing again. There are parts of it that I will look at from time to time.

Today is also the birthday of child actor Jonathan Lipnicki.

Remember him as the adorable tyke in JERRY MAGUIRE (he was in the STUART LITTLE movies, too)?

That child is now 15 years old.

Talk about feeling one's age! Argh!  :(

I hope those who have been under the weather will be feeling better today. Ithought I was coming down with something myself last night right before bed, but I awoke this morning feeling okay, so whatever that was must have passed me by, at least for now.

I'd put I DO! I DO! at the top of any list of two character plays. I like it much more than THE FOREPOSTER because I think the score is so brilliant.

SLEUTH, without a doubt.

STEVIE.

Wasn't THE GIN GAME just two characters? Love it.

Today I will be watching another Val Lewton. It's not next in line on the DVR, but I think I'll skip to THE BODY SNATCHER.

Probably first, however, will be the documentary on THE ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN set and then some episodes.

Favorite First Season Episodes:

The Stolen Costume with Veda Ann Borg
Riddle of the Chinese Jade
Mystery in Wax
Rescue

Phyllis Coates looks great and drives that great Rambler or whatever it is with the push back roof.  And I love when she flips on the key and has to jam down on the starter.  Great scream, too!

I like Noel a lot, but I love Phyllis.

Hi all!  Still on page two I see. I've been up and about for awhile now.  I have dinner cooking--Chicken and Dumplings.  

It's a dull, gray day here.  Part of the hurricane.  

For those who would like a local look at the storm, here is a local news site for you:

It's one of the better ones.
