Well, you've read the notes, the notes had both fire and brimstone, and now it is time for you to post until the fire and brimstone cows come home.
-
And the word of the day is: GORMLESS!
-
That's a great review, BK! Congrats to you and to Sandy and the musicians!
-
Loved the photos from the HHW gathering last night, and again many regrets for having to miss it. You all look fabulous!

Morning all.
That is all.
-
I had a wonderful time last night at Artie's.
I had deluxe chili dogs (meaning they came with fries). They filled me up enough that I didn't have any rice pudding.
-
As Deb mentioned I walked her back to Lincoln Center where she parked her car and then she very kindly drove me home. Since I walked up from 16th Street and then was driven home I wasn't on the subway at all yesterday. We had a very nice conversation about what's going on in the world and our lives. It was all wonderful. I so enjoy my HHW friends.
-
I hope Ginny and Richard get tickets for something today. They said they were going downtown to play with Jose as well at BGIC Shop.
And now, back to work.

-
It was a terrific evening at Artie's, and beyond the joy of the several hours - a reminder of what HHW can mean and has meant over the years!
-
Vibes for BK's show that the performer has been able to keep up while her was ill.
-
Thursday morning greetings!
I hope Ginny and Richard get tickets for something today. They said they were going downtown to play with Jose as well at BGIC Shop....
Yes, we need to go double-check that hot fudge for DR Vixmom!
First, we're going back to the scene of the crime and try for TWELFTH NIGHT tickets for tonight or tomorrow night.
-
Good morning, all.
Coffee!
Newman's Own Special Blend K-Cups, if you must know. And you must, you must.
-
Ginny, before last night, I had missed what happened to you starting at the Belasco box office - health-filled vibes from us to you both as always.

Thanks, DR FJL! It was great to see you last night - best to Skip!

what a gorgeous photo!
-
and a good morning to all
-
Quiet this morning. I wonder what everybody is doing.
I heard that it's Thursday, but wouldn't want to make any rash judgments. Perhaps DR Kerry could weigh in on this.
-
Good morning, all!I had too much excitement last night, and could not get to sleep. As a result, i slept in and will not be making the trip to Toyland this morning. So, i'm on my first cup of coffee and pondering how to proceed with a question from my Moross copyist Scott.
DR Ginny and Richard, thanks again for a really wonderful party last evening. I hope you have good luck with the TWELFTH NIGHT tickets.
-
And the word of the day is: GORMLESS!
And The Song Of The Day Is: SOMETHING STUPID
-
Loved seeing the pictures and reading about the HHW gathering! The food looked good.
Do they always put noodles in their matzoh ball soup? I think I did that once. The ice cream sounded good too. Yum!
-
Good morning from the BBQ trail.
Looking forward to catching up.
Found Moxie for sale this morning.
-
TOD:
Time is a four-letter word.
-
Artie's does put noodles in the soup.
-
So is Emit (time backwards)
-
I'm listening to the soundtrack (cobbled together by Anthony since there is no legitimate release) for Big Eden. I love that movie.
-
I've heard great things about both 12th Night and Richard the 3rd. I hope to see it at some point. I also want to see the Hirschfeld exhibit at the NYPL at Lincoln Center.
-
And Carnegie Corporation calls.
-
DR BEN I also love BIG EDEN.....
-
PAGE TWO!
-
DR Ben, I'd meant to ask you how the chili dogs were, but I believe you said they were quite good. I love a chili dog now and then. My favorite to date, taste-wise, are Nathan's, but chili dogs are a mess and it's much nicer to eat 'em on a plate.
-
What great photos from last night, of course we need to see more.
Nice review for Sandy B linked in the notes....BWW certainly does love its popups, doesn't it?
And a nice article on DR MBARNUM's celebration! And congrats to him on his 20,000 posts.
-
Tonight I am going to see a rehearsal of THE WOMEN and hopefully pick up my script for ACHILLES/ACHILLES SON.....
The director of THE WOMEN asked if I had sheet music for "The Way You Look Tonight" in C or B flat. The sheet music I have seems to be in E flat, but I do have a copy from a fake book that is in C....so I will take her that copy.
-
I had a good crowd at the Austin Network Mixer last night. They asked some good questions, and I even sold a few books.
-
I think I need to order THE CANDIDATE starring June & Mamie.....just the idea of those girls loose in Washington D.C. in 1964 is amusing....and the poster that DR MBARNUM posted yesterday makes it impossible to resist.
-
Good for you DR DRUXY!
-
Everyone's food looked great.
DR Elmore, the potato pancakes/latkes, for my taste, were EXCELLENT. Thank you for sharing!
The soups looked great.
DR Vixmom's cabbage roll looked yummy, and like it should keep a family fed for a week.
DH Richard's sandwich -- forgot to ask -- was that the pastrami, with cole slaw? Whatever, it looked fantastic.
I think DR FJL said the blintzes were a little on the bland side?
-
Congrats on that, DR Druxy!
-
Next weekend is the 3-day Wizard World Comic Con here in Austin.
I will be doing a panel discussion on Friday, then sitting and selling (I hope) books and DVDs for the rest of the weekend.
These events are exhausting...but fun.
-
Thank you to DRs Vixmom and ChasSmith for venturing into the city, to DRs Ben, Jose, and FJL for venturing uptown, and to DR Elmore for venturing around the corner last night!
-
I forgot to mention the nice review for Sandy! I'm very happy for her.
DR Ginny, last night was only my second venture out of doors after dark. DR ChasSmith was very kind to walk the 82nd Street block with me. And, before i forget,DR ChasSmith, those pumpkin cookies are really deepish! Thank you.
-
DR Ginny, it was a wonderful evening, and I'll do it any time. Thank YOU!
I used to go into the city at the drop of a hat, and I need to get back to that.
-
I've taken care of my 30 minutes of Jerome Moross work for the day, added it to my next invoice, and I guess it's time to make the bed.
Rob Berman and my adopted son Joshie have offered me a spot of work at Encores!, so that was my really god news from yesterday. I hope to begin it next week.
-
TOD:
I found this the other day and posted on my FB page. It got to me.
"You walk through a series of arches, so to speak, and then, presently, at the end of a corridor, a door opens and you see backward through time, and you feel the flow of time, and realize you are only part of a great nameless procession." -- John Huston
-
That reviewer said some very nice things!
-
Yes, Chas, I forgot to mention my pumpkin raisin cookies as well. They are very good and Anthony was very happy that I came home with half a container.
-
I went to see GRAVITY today and found it incredibly intense and nerve-wracking, as well as very emotional. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time; feeling as if I was adrift in space myself.
-
I enjoyed reading about last nights gathering. DR FJL I'm sorry you were cut out of the photo. I know how you feel as that happened to me at our 45th high school reunion. You have to wonder how the photographer doesn't notice.
-

So true.
-

I suppose that also means you had a good time ;)
-
Although it wasn't mentioned, Fred asked to be cut out of the photo. He doesn't like having photos taken of him so he requested that when it was posted that he be removed.

New York HHW hospitality as I remember it. DR Ben escorting DR Vixmom only instead of DR elmore escorting me, this time it was DR Chas escorting DR elmore.

Well, that is different ;D I still regret getting cut out of my reunion pic.

Regrouping in the Marriott Marquis' 8th floor lounge after getting TWELFTH NIGHT tickets for tonight and MOTOWN for tomorrow night. Soon we'll catch a #20 bus down to the West Village to visit DR Jose at the Big Gay Ice Cream Shop.
-

You also have Joyce Nizzari from WILD WOMEN OF WONGO in there, as well...although she doesn't recall being in the film.
-
I've regrouped a few times in the 8th floor lounge, myself. It's a good place to regroup.
-
Such fun in NYC...makes me want to go and visit my HHW friends! I really do need to get over there again, and I want to get to meet DR ChasSmith! Everyone says he is the bomb!
And nice to see E & T DR JosePiano! Where was very E & T DR Rodzinski? Did he get an invite? I do miss the postings from those two.
When I win the lottery I am going to fly all HHW DRs in to NYC or LA for a huge party!
-

Congrats on getting the tickets. Enjoy the ice cream.
-
VIBES DR MBARNUM WINS THE LOTTERY!
-
Wouldn't that be fun, DR Jane! Remember our first NYC HHW get-together in 2004! Such wonderful memories of the eating-walking-talking tour!

Thanks, DR Jane. We decided to have a sandwich here because Richard thought ice cream for lunch would make him weird. He had ham & Swiss and I had tuna salad. On to the ice cream!

If only we had know what a feast DR FJL & Skip planned for us I would have eaten less on the walking tour, still I managed to indulge in the feast :)

Smart decision, health wise. As for weird, I think he is weird for thinking such a thing ;)

Sad news for "I Love Lucy" fans. Shirley Mitchell (http://tv.yahoo.com/news/love-lucy-actress-shirley-mitchell-dies-94-050000771.html), who played Marion Strong, has died.
-
DR FJL: My heartfelt disappointment for your having been ledited out of not one, but two, TWO, photos from last night.
I understand there are legal issues to contemplate, however.
-
It's Thursday here in Oakland CA.
What day is it where you are?
-
I'm up, I'm up, just trying to get everything done. Daunting.
-
It is nearly time for DR RLP's annual trek eastward.
-
The double whammy of Firefox AND Windows updates have created havoc on my computer today. It is just now settling down to business.
-
The cast list for ACHILLES/ACHILLIES SON contains two people I know from THE CRUCIBLE, and my friends TJ and Caroline (the director's wife) both of whom work with me at PCPH.
We have our first meeting Monday morning, but rehearsals don't begin until after Christmas break.
-
It is nearly time for DR RLP's annual trek eastward.
Yes, it is. And it LOOMs, I tell you....it LOOMS. So much to do, so little time, etc., etc.
Only two more full weeks of work before then.
-
Odd thing: Yesterday, and today, I was composing a message of more than just a single line. And when I clicked on post, I got a pink box with red writing telling me I "timed out" and to try reposting. So, I hit post again and all was well.
But, is that not strange?
-
Not so strange considering the little problems we have recently experienced ;)
-
DR BEN I also love BIG EDEN.....
Add me to the list of BIG EDEN lovers! ;D
-

I would never eat a chili dog or burger any other way than on a plate. A local place has delicious chili burgers and I always ask them to put it on a plate instead of their Styrofoam container. That just never works out. :P

Great news, Larry! Congrats and good luck!

Wasn't that supposed to be over and done with at the end of last week? I'm still finding it a slow process getting HHW to pop up.
-
I'm also finding it slow on and off.
-
Off to observe a rehearsal.
-
The #20 bus took us right to the Big Gay Ice Cream Store, where DR Jose presented us a "flight" of flavor samples and then brought out some hot fudge to sample. Not having the sense to stop there, Richard and I ordered from the menu - he had a Mermaid and I had a Salty Pimp (easy on the salt, but Michael double-dipped the chocolate). We don't plan to eat again until after TWELFTH NIGHT (the play, not Jan. 6!)
-
We took a bus up 6th Ave. to Rockefeller Center, where I did some Christmas shopping at the NBC store. We looked at the tree, encased in scaffolding, and then watched the skaters for a while. Being too far from the apt to walk there and back to the Belasco by 6:30, we're relaxing with coffee at Cafe Cranberry on 44th.
-
A "flight" of samples sounds like fun to me.

Even a clowder of samples might be fun!

Although it wasn't mentioned, Fred asked to be cut out of the photo. He doesn't like having photos taken of him so he requested that when it was posted that he be removed.
Yes, not wanting photos on the net until the "stalker" matter is resolved - I asked vixmom to edit me out of the photo (I was on the far side anyway) before it was posted, though I definitely want a copy of the photo for my own collection.
-

LOL, I'll print that out for Skip!!!! Thanks, Jane.

Thanks to vixmom for the lovely thoughtful gift for Skip's birthday this weekend.

I'm sure someone will send you a copy.

Had some chicken tenders, picked up some packages, finished liner notes number two and got them on their merry way, and got all singers and MD the music and mp3s for the Kritzerland show. At some point I had an amusing meltdown when Hightail froze. But it's all done now, and tomorrow I'll do liner notes number three.

You were both wonderful hosts as were Toby and Dylan.

Hello!
-
I'm in the money! I ordered a CD from amazon.com. I was informed that the price had gone down and that I would receive a credit on my credit card. Sure enough I got another email confirming my credit of $.01 !
-
Great photos from the get-together! Looks like it was a fun time!
-
Sad news for "I Love Lucy" fans. Shirley Mitchell (http://tv.yahoo.com/news/love-lucy-actress-shirley-mitchell-dies-94-050000771.html), who played Marion Strong, has died.
The last of the cast members, apparently, except for Richard Keith (Little Ricky).

Today I received MIRANDA series 3 from amazon.co.uk, and it's been keeping me amused tonight.
-
Spent way too much time driving around Dallas looking for the hotel where the reservation was. Not happy.
-
Must get to work.
-
Congratulations, Elmore, on the offer of work.
And great news, KevinH, on your bounteous return on your CD purchase.
-

Good evening. I have just returned home from a whirlwind trip to Las Vegas.

-
BA BUM!
-
I am so glad that Ginny & Richard were able to get their 12th Night tickets after all
-
What a fun get-together you folks had in NYC!
-
Did I forget to mention (why yes, I believe I did) that Vixmom has one of the most beautiful Noo Yawk accents I've ever heard?
No joke!
I suppose it could be more Long Island than NYC in general. I'm not good at accents. Professor Higgins I am not.
That's why I asked if she'd lived here all her life.
Seriously, I do believe I could listen to Vixmom read the proverbial phone book!
Not that the rest of you sound horrible! But you know, you either got it or you ain't... :)
-
Okay, enough about vixmom. :)
What were you doing whirlwind tripping to Las Vegas, DR Laura?
-
I have a friend in one of the shows. A clean show.
-

Not where Google Maps said it would be.

Hope it was fun.

I always have fun.

But do you have more fun... That's what they say about blondes, anyway. :)
-
Ugh. I stubbed my baby toe yesterday and now it is bruised. And my baby and the toe beside it have now doubled in size. Hard to find a shoe to wear. :(
-
We had a wonderful time seeing TWELFTH NIGHT! They open the house half an hour before curtain and the actors are on stage being dressed and made up. The show was very well-done and the finale and curtain call are exquisite. With that 7pm curtain, we were home before 10:30 to enjoy our Artie's leftovers from last night.
-
I don't think I've ever shared here why TWELFTH NIGHT is so special to me. I took one acting class in college and the instructor said on the first day that one of the ways we'd know we'd done well would be if he felt he could assign us Shakespeare for our final scenes. My assignment was to play Viola/Cesario in the first scene she/he has with Olivia.
-
:) :) :)
;) ;) ;)
;D ;D ;D
8) 8) 8)
-
A lull. ::)
-
Tonight, I watched "Grey's Anatomy" and "Scandal," and not necessarily in that order.
-
Today, I stayed at work much later than usual.
-
Yesterday was the cut-off for this month's paying of invoices and I had to prepare a report today for the business office.
-
It's essentially a list of every invoice from the materials budget (books and A/V items) that was paid this month.
-
Now, I'm just watching Jimmy Kimmel (no relation to BK). His first guest is his former girlfriend/partner Sarah Silverman. She brought a box of his stuff that was left over from when they were together. Of course, it's a comedy bit and it's pretty darned funny!
-
All of a sudden, a little kid ran out from back stage and asked her, "Mommy, am I gonna meet daddy tonight?" And he was dressed just like Jimmy. :D
-
Tomorrow night, I'm working concessions for a college production of A Servant of Two Masters (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servant_of_Two_Masters), the "the classic Venetian comedy by Carlo Goldoni."
-
It's also the same source as One Man, Two Guvnors (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_Man,_Two_Guvnors).
-
(http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/e2/One_Man%2C_Two_Guvnors.jpg)
-
I'm really looking forward to this. :)
-
Saturday, I'm working concessions (again) for the annual Warren Miller movie, Ticket To Ride (http://www.skinet.com/warrenmiller/).
-
This is always full and there will be a LOT of drinkers. Fortunately, audiences in recent years haven't gotten too drunk...just rowdy.
-
And now, I must go to bed. I have an meeting in the morning and I need to get to work earlier than usual, which means I really need to get to sleep earlier.
Good night, all. 8)
