Post by: George on November 12, 2014, 10:30:21 PM: I'm watching "Nashville" right now. After that, I'm going to start recording some of the PBS specials (Sweeney Todd, The Nance, Porgy and Bess, Michael Feinstein) onto my sister's boyfriend's laptop that he loaned me. He can burn them onto Blu-ray discs for me! It'll take a while to get them all recorded, but he said that I could borrow the laptop for several weeks.

I don't think I knew that. "The Sound of Music" (on NBC) was also only released on DVD and I would assume that "Peter Pan" will be, too. Larry (my sister's boyfriend) has already made a Blu-ray of "TSoM" for me.

I confess I've watched very few British shows, but I love "Absolutely Fabulous". And when Mark and I were in England, we enjoyed watching the British programming in our hotel room. I saw one episode of a sit-com that seemed to have half American actors and I think it was called "Centre Stage". It was hysterical. We also liked a do-it-yourself handyman instructional show called "Big Strong Boys". Mostly we liked the name and we still make jokes about it even though we saw probably ten years ago.

I think I've settled on getting a Mazda2, even though I haven't test-driven one yet. Mark discovered on hertz.com, they have a rent-2-buy program where I can rent a car for three days and then buy it. They have a bright red 2013 Mazda2 with about 47,000 miles on it waiting for me at the Burbank airport. It's the "touring" trim level, so it has all the bells and whistles I like. And it's about $1,500 cheaper than anything I've found comparable. We'll go pick it up after work. I hope I like it!

Her understudy was good, though. It was a treat to see James Earl Jones as Grandpa. And Kristine Nielsen was very funny. Elizabeth Ashley was a hoot as the Countess. Julie Halston made the most of her role.

Post by: Ben on November 13, 2014, 09:42:13 AM: Yes, it was quite an evening. Brent was in great voice and Mr. Kander, at 87, is quite amazing. He didn't play the piano or anything like that but his presence was exciting. When the performance was over people flocked to him (and Brent). Life Is What You Do and Quiet Thing were both very moving, in different ways. Brent obviously loves what he's doing and it shows on stage.

Thanks, Kevin for the opportunity to see BB.

Post by: John G. on November 13, 2014, 10:34:47 AM: A truly twisted sentence. This comes from a library catalog description of a movie called "Man of the West."

"Screen legend Gary Cooper (Vera Cruz) powerfully demonstrates why he will forever be remembered as one of the most original and authentic stars of the screen."

Is it Gary or is it Vera? I can never get those two straight.

Since none of these are going to be released at all, it'll be great to have actual Blu-rays of them. :D

I thought that THE NANCE was going to be released . Not Blu-Ray, but on DVD.

I don't think I knew that. "The Sound of Music" (on NBC) was also only released on DVD and I would assume that "Peter Pan" will be, too. Larry (my sister's boyfriend) has already made a Blu-ray of "TSoM" for me.

And what extras did Larry put on the Blu-ray?

The funds from my insurance were finally deposited in my bank account this morning. Whew! I can go buy a car tonight. I think I've settled on getting a Mazda2, even though I haven't test-driven one yet. Mark discovered on hertz.com, they have a rent-2-buy program where I can rent a car for three days and then buy it. They have a bright red 2013 Mazda2 with about 47,000 miles on it waiting for me at the Burbank airport. It's the "touring" trim level, so it has all the bells and whistles I like. And it's about $1,500 cheaper than anything I've found comparable. We'll go pick it up after work. I hope I like it!

Rent to buy, I like that. VIBES YOU WANT TO BUY!!!

Her understudy was good, though. It was a treat to see James Earl Jones as Grandpa. And Kristine Nielsen was very funny. Elizabeth Ashley was a hoot as the Countess.

Post by: Ginny on November 13, 2014, 05:36:43 PM: Thank you to DRs John G and Jane for the birthday wishes for Richard. We had a nice dinner ay Artie's with DR Elmore after doing a couple of errands in his neighborhood. He put us in a taxi and we're in for the night. It's been a long day.

Post by: ChasSmith on November 13, 2014, 05:53:49 PM: Question for BK: You are very generous about signing things, but my friends are wondering if it would be appropriate to also bring something to ask Richard Sherman to sign. If he doesn't like a lot of that, or if you don't think it's appropriate this time for any reason, just say the word. Thanks!

Post by: John G. on November 13, 2014, 08:27:04 PM: Had a 20% off coupon for Barnes and Noble, so I got the Jacques Demy set today for half off, plus 20% more and then my member discount. So, with tax, the box set was under $50. Thanks again, ChasSmith.

Post by: Jeanne on November 13, 2014, 09:22:14 PM: Bruce, when you get home you really need to watch SCOTT & BAILEY. First-rate writing. Season 1 gets off to a good start and keeps up the pace, with a marvelous season climax. From the creator of HAPPY VALLEY. Netflix disc or Amazon.
