DR MATTHEW - I can't find my HELLO DOLLY libretto - and it's T/W not MTI so DRJASON can't look it up.

I checked my published script of THE MATCHMAKER and can't find it, although I am sure it's there.

DR MATTHEW is looking for a specific line from HELLO,DOLLY....when Dolly says: "That's the way it's done in New York, dinner first and [what word goes here] later."

Jose, at your leisure, e-mail me a list of "don't-do" audition songs, and also songs that the current crop of casting people seem to respond to. Thanks. Anyone else with song suggestions, e-mail me as well.

Actually, I kind of like "Mama Says".

However, "I Can't Stand Still" is another story.

I've been tossing fruitcakes for years. Immediately when I am given one as a gift, I toss it right in the garbage. I can't STAND the things.

Next time toss it to your local food pantry. Many churches have these. That's where any extra unopened Christamas goodies, Halloween candy, Easter candy etc go when found laying around our house. Somebody may be grateful to have it.

I like olives stuffed with pentimentos.

Don't let anyone call you a pentimental old coot!

My sister got me a Collin Street Bakery pineapple fruitcake for Christmas and it was very yummy. I don't think I ever ate a "last" piece of fruitcake before in my life.

Sad news about Jean Byron, DRMBARNUM. I remember her FIRST on THE MANY LOVES OF DOBIE GILLIS. She and William Schallert played professors at the college Dobie attended. The next thing I knew, they were man & wife on THE PATTY DUKE SHOW!

I have heard she had a mouth like a truck driver! LOL!

I am sure she was a lot of fun!

Last night's "Surface":

SPOILER

SPOILER

Does anyone else watch this show? Just curious. Last night's "season finale" was quite interesting...lots of suspense...some a bit disaster-epic-stale, IMO...but not too bad for a TV series.

I think the final line -- something about it being "a whole new world" -- could point to some fascinating possibilities for the new season (should we be fortunate enough to get one). "Surface" airs, also, on Sci-Fi, and it may yet turn out that NBC airs new shows on Sci-Fi a la "Stargate" and "Battlestar Galactica"...but that's a hunch...not based on anything I've read or heard.

There are some issues in this show that beg for answers -- how much of what happened has been deliberately set in motion -- how much was expected -- what was it done "for" -- where did that huge shaft in the underground facility lead to -- and on and on and on?

This calls to mind a line I believe was in "Hannah and Her Sisters":

Maureen O'Sullivan's character said: "I'm just a boozy old broad with...."

But I can't recall what follows "with"....

MAJOR MEDIUM SPOILERS from last night's show.

Quote from: TPunk on February 07, 2006, 07:42:20 AM

MORE MEDIUM SPOILERSI agree, I also really liked last night's episode but thought it had not much to do with the commercials. What was even the point of having the alternate family, I guess to show that she really needed the MRI. Will there be more with the peanut? And I am convinced but Tom doesn't agree that in the "faux" family, the youngest daughter was the same as in her actual family.

Yeah as I said it bothered me that they played that promo so much it had nothing to do with the show.

I agree with Rodzinski, I really think the youngest daughter was the same. Although it was difficult to tell. The oldest daughter was obviously different. The middle one I thought actually looked like the real one but wasn't. But the youngest one really looked like the real one.

Quote

And after thinking more about it, I'm glad with the way it ended. At first I was thinking, he's a totally different person, just let it go. But if the thoughts were there in the MRI for her to pick up on, they were still a part of him deep down. And when the wife said that he hated the desert and stayed away, it made me think that maybe the repression of his former life was more psychological than physiological. What if the memories or urges had come back to him some time down the line and he killed his wife and others... all in all a good episode, but I hope that they resolve some of the unresolved peanut questions at some point in the future.

I know that we are supposed to focus on Alison. But I guess it just bothered me that the guy had no memory of what happened, and he was such a good person now that he was willing to help the police. I sort of wanted to know whta would happen with him.

It would have been interesting if the oldest daughter had a peanut too. And I also wonder if they will address that issue again.

Hmmmm...hopefully we don't all have this much trouble with our lines when we get cast in a play!

Yes DRMBARNUM....Patty Duke mentioned in her autobiography that Jean liked to curse like a sailor when things were going badly.

I am listening to the new SWEENEY TODD recording. Sometimes, the instrumentation is eerily like that of the Hooterville Volunteer Fire Department Marching Band. I wonder how they would have done with SWEENEY?

S. Woody White · « **Reply #85 on:** February 07, 2006, 10:41:31 AM »

Eva Gabor as Mrs. Lovett.

Eddie Albert as Sweeny Todd himself.

Tom Lester as Tobias.

Pat Bustrum as Pirelli.

Sid Melton as Antony.

Mary Grace Canfield as Joanna.

Frank Cady as Judge Turpin.

Hank Patterson as the Beadle.

Barbara Pepper alternates with Fran Ryan as the Old Beggar Lady.

Interesting concept.

Pogue, don't know if it is intentional, but the rug in your library looks almost like a reflection of the shelves of books. It's a neat effect.

Shortly after I first started working here at the library, we got a book called "Authentic Small Houses of the Twenties." They had a house plan in that that I just loved. It's made of brick and has an octagonal staircase on the left side going up to the second floor. It's just a sweet little house. I photocopied the page and have it at home stuffed in a box somewhere.
