So, I recorded and since last night (only a half hour ago) have been watching CBS' broadcast of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.  They showed medleys from two Broadway shows, "Beautiful: The Carole King Musical" and "Jersey Boys."  I just realized that those two shows are jukebox musicals about real musical acts.  Interesting choices.

In my last dream my close personal friend Dustin Hoffman and I had a talk about what I wanted to accomplish before I die and my financial state.

On Monday, waiting for the No 5 bus, I ran into Tim, who worked for Dustin's Punch Productions back in the 1990s.   Tim was the person who brought me in to help on research for The Merchant of Venice.

I haven't watched NBC's broadcast of the parade, yet.


Regarding jukebox musicals - The NBC coverage starts off with ON YOUR FEET! (the Gloria Estefan jukebox/catalog musical) - a really interesting number that starts off way uptown and ends up at Macy's, so I assume part of that number was pre-recorded.

I definitely think that getting a dvd from the library for 3 weeks seems unfair. At my library we get dvds for 3 days. And we get dvds of tv series for 1 week. Plus we can reserve them. This works for me. You used to not be able to reserve them (unless you suggested them then you got them first). i really found that dumb (that you could not reserve them as they were never in). They didn't like the idea of people having 2 days to pick up the dvds, which I do get. But it works much better this way.

I didn't like that they only featured 2 musicals. However watching them sing vs the very bad lip-synching on NBC was good. Bad lip synching drives me crazy.

TOD from yesterday:
Mark did some research on "Fargo" and apparently the entire thing is fiction. The film was fiction, the TV series last season was fiction and this season is fiction. Well that explains the ridiculousness of it all. I don't know why the writers feel the need to lie to us that way. I feel utterly betrayed and deceived. And it's just plain rude!

FARGO is the best show on television today.

The producers never made it a secret that the story was fiction.

Indeed, if you read carefully the "disclaimer" at the start of each episode, you should recognize that it's tongue in cheek.

I've had some Amazon weirdness recently, too.  Back in September, I pre-ordered something that was to be published on November 12.  It was a present for Richard's birthday on the 13th, so I paid for overnight shipping intending that it would arrive on his special day.  Between 10 and 11pm on the 12th, I got an email that the item was delayed and I'd be notified when it shipped.  So, Richard received a picture of said item in his birthday card.

This past Sunday I received an email stating that it had shipped and would arrive on Monday by 8pm.  Well, I was checking the porch right up to 7:59 and - Nope.  It was here yesterday when I got home from Dayton.

Went and picked up some packages - the ones that should have been there yesterday but were delivered today - and I got a Subway sandwich for the meal o' the day, which I came home and ate.  I've been listening to music.  Got one DGA screener - some heinous-sounding thing written, directed by and starring Angelina Jolie, and co-starring her husband.  The reviews on this thing have been horrifying - a true vanity project, her attempt to make a Euro art film circa the early 70s.  I'm not sure I have the sand to watch it - we shall see.  I keep hoping for The Danish Girl or something good.

I was busy trying to get lots done and lots caught up on when things started coming out of left field. Yesterday I was just two blocks from the optician when I had my first encounter with my car's dashboard diagnostics. There was this horrible noise and the dashboard informed me that my tires were underinflated. Sigh. One of the tires looked very low on Sunday and I'd gone to the gas station and put air in the tire. A slow leak, I thought. I got half of it right. Fortunately, I was able to drive on it long enough to get to my mechanic. (And just WHERE are all the gas stations these days when you need one? There used to be one on every corner.) His guys found a small nail in the tire and fixed it promptly. I do trust their work, but I keep checking the tire.  ;)

I made my first gluten free cake yesterday. I didn't like it. I guess there is something about wheat flour that makes things so good.

Sorry you were disappointed. I eat lots of gluten-free breads that are not only tasty, but you really wouldn't know they were gluten-free. I've never tried to make them and can't tell you what the trick is--if there is one. I imagine there are some blogs about it.

The doctor released wife Sandy yesterday, so now she can drive.

And, I no longer have to follow her around at the grocery store while she decides which head of lettuce she should buy.

 ;D


Congrats. Oh, yes, driving has its advantages.

O Happy Day!  The check was in the post.  It was mailed and postmarked eight days ago.  WTF?

Is there any rhyme or reason to the USPS? Glad the check arrived.

DR Jeanne were you able to see your optician after you fixed the tire?

No. I'll try again tomorrow. I was very glad they took care of it so quickly, but I was still feeling a bit rattled and revised what was left of my day.

Bruce, I think Sambucol is a good choice, but it should be taken by itself. The other products can antidote homeopathic remedies.

Jane, was it the furniture store who installed the bed?

Unfortunately not.  They gave us the name of a delivery service they use.  Oregon doesn't have a sales tax so people often use a delivery service for over the border.  They give the service we use a lot of business.  I called the store we purchased the bed from to see what they will do.  They are actually an appliance store and not the same furniture store I have been having issues with.

I got my flu shot today and am feeling a bit under the weather. :(

Is this how you normally feel after the shot or worse?  Either way, vibes it doesn't last long.

Not sure. Usually the arm is tender. I don't feel terrible. My head was just hurting a bit, i was warm and I was a bit wobbly on my feet. Resting has helped. And I took some advil.

Has anyone heard of an actor called Burn Gorman?  He's been in a lot of BBC shows (he's American, however) and I'm currently watching him give one of the single worst performances I've ever seen in The Man in the High Castle - a horrible cross between Marlon Brando and Clint Eastwood in a Leone movie.  Any actor who thinks having a toothpick is a good character thing is immediately in my no fly zone.

Went to a CD Exchange tonight and found something called Borders Highlights from Varese Sarabande Spotlight Series with selections from many of the solo albums that BK has produced. Yes, they gave BK credit, but none for the orchestrators. So, sorry, Elmore, you've been overlooked again. And you have plenty of work on here, including Sherry and Time After Time.
