Well, you've read the notes, the notes discovered a masterpiece, thanks to me, and now it is time for you to post until the discovering a masterpiece cows come home.
-
And the word of the day is: MINUTIAE!
-
First post after BK.
-
Is that the reveal? That you discovered a masterpiece?
-
Off to bed.
Have a good day, all!
-
Good morning, all!
-
After physical therapy, I must go to City Center, and I'm trying to decide how to dress, shorts or long pants? I'd prefer shorts, but if it's too chilly out, then long pants. Damn!
-
I tried Aleve PM last night. I don't think it was a success.
-
Jennifer Anniston has 13,000,000 followers on Instagram? WTF? Who would give that much of a damn?
-
DR vixmom, hooray, hooray, hooray!
-
I'm happy the surgery went well, DR TCB!
-
I have this vague memory that Sallinen wrote an opera in the 1970s called something like Arianna, about astronauts or something set in a space ship. I believe there was a commercial recording. Angel Records, maybe?
-
Good Morning!
-
Good morning, all.
-
Thanks for all of the good work vibes.
-
Good news about the surgery, Tom.
-
TOD:
I’d like to find the time to finish Die Meistersinger.
-
Goddamned cats! Thatch is the only one not on my shit list at the moment, Annabelle climbed onto my nightstand and tossed everything onto the floor, including my cell phone which separated into three pieces. Stella just climbed onto my work table, after being evicted three times and knocked over my work lamp, and now I cannot locate the missing piece that bolts it to the table. I have to find it before I leave, so I just canceled my physical therapy appointment since I cannot function unbtil things are righted here.
-
Thank you George for taking the time to look. She interned with the Jim Henson muppet making group when she was younger and she would dearly love to have this can
-
I am glad to hear about your BIL’s successful surgery, TCB. That sounds like a very scary blockage!

I am sorry to hear this
-
The missing piece of the lamp turned up, and the work lamp is assembled and back in place. The phone is working, so I will use the therapy time to work on this overture.
I still love my babies, but I hope they stay clear of Daddy for the next hour!
-
That Darn Cat!
-
Friday is good.
Glad to hear about the surgery success for the brother of DR TCB.
Interesting notes.....MR BK is to go to guy for the Rep Co.
-
I turned the heat pump on for a few minutes this morning.
Today in about half an hour, I have to rescan all of my televisions that use antennas....since there is a frequency change happening....not sure if it's local or nationwide.
-
Is installing a bishop anything like installing a water heater?
-
Good news that both Doug & TCB's brother in-law are doing well after surgery.
-
I'm up, I'm up - not quite seven hours of sleep.
-
I am home from City Center. The cats were glad to see me.

JB has landed on that list a time or two.
-
Two!

Good afternoon!

Lase night we saw Julie Andrews and her daughter Emma at Temple Emanu-El. Emma interviewed her mother using questions that the audience members had asked on cards distributed before the show. Julie was just what you would want her to be--warm, gracious, funny. We were given a copy of her autobiography ("Home Work"). It's the continuation of her first one, "Home."
-
Seeing Beetlejuice tonight. Hoping I like it better than when I saw it in DC. We'll see...
-
Bill Macy has died at age 97. Loved his one line as jury foreman in The Producers: We find the defendant’s incredibly guilty.

Larry, have you heard of convertable pants (https://www.amazon.com/s?k=convertible+pants+for+men&ref=nb_sb_noss_1)? You can remove the lower legs when it's too hot, and have the best of both worlds!

DR George, I have heard of them, I just never thought I'd be purchasing a pair.

Finished "Home for the Holidays" and on to "I've Got My Love To Keep Me Warm."
Stella has learned nothing from today's events.

Insert jealous face here.
Not to brag, but the one time I went to NYC (December 1995), I got to see Julie Andrews live on Broadway in Victor/Victoria. :D
-
That was, of course, before her botched vocal chord surgery. :-\
-
Friday evening greetings from Clarksburg, West Virginia! We took the scenic route today, where we kept expecting to hear “Dueling Banjos.”
-
Is installing a bishop anything like installing a water heater?
Fr. Richard says, “No, it’s far more complicated. Two people can install a water heater and today required a cast of thousands.”
-
Glad to read good reports from DRs Vixmom and TCB!

I'm closing shop for the night. The cats want to watch TV.
-
LOL thanks to DH RICHARD for the explanation.
-
Hello, everyone.
-
Great news from Vixmom!
-
Good news, too, from TCB!
-
Julie Andrews' new book looks very interesting....she is a guest programmer late this month on TCM.
For some reason, I don't mind that she is showing three of her own films.....MILLIE and VICTORIA are what I can see from the preview....maybe it's only two.....
I had a completely opposite reaction when Charles Grodin chose one of his own films to show.....
-
My new external hard drive doesn't seem to be working.....so we shall see what happens.
-
Jennifer Anniston has 13,000,000 followers on Instagram? WTF? Who would give that much of a damn?
I've never understood her appeal.
-
John G, both you and Krista have been doing the "new" job and it is acknowledged that you both are quite competent at it, but neither of you have been getting paid at that level? Or there will be only one job where there once were two?
-
I saw Katy, AKA therapist #2, today. It seems that Erik, formerly therapist #1, feels that he must concentrate on another form of therapy, which doesn't preclude me from seeing him, but he will have a new (higher) price structure. It just feels like it's time to say adios to Erik. I think Katy will now be therapist #1.
-
I then indulged in more enchiladas, which I think was the third time this week. ;D
-
Then a stop at the always-busy Trader Joe's, which was mobbed!
-
Are people hungrier today than most days? Having guests this weekend? Early Thanksgiving/Christmas shopping? Trader Joe's doesn't sell Halloween candy so it's not that.
-
Speaking of candy, Jane, have you tried Moonstruck Chocolates? They're based near you and what I've read of them sounds very appealing.
-
Have a good weekend, everyone.
TTFN.
-
Vixmom, I have some bad news. I went to the Matchless Brewery and asked about the Easy Being Green Ale. It turns out that it was a limited run that ended about three weeks ago, and they don't have any plans to make any more. I guess they have a lot of these limited run microbrews, and if you snooze (or don't find out until it's too late), you lose. :-\
-
"As he tears his own flesh, he glories in his agonies."
Sample lyric in Die Meistersinger. I'm so glad this is a comedy.
-
Back from a fun but long day.
-
Been back for an hour, but catching up on stuff and telephonic conversations.
-
I then indulged in more enchiladas, which I think was the third time this week. ;D
Yummy.
-
The Dining Adventure was really fun and the food was incredible - Langer's Delicatessen, best anywhere. An amusing thing happened just before our final guest arrived, but I'll talk about that in the notes.
-
I had my usual number one, which is their famous number 19 without a slice of Swiss cheese - the pastrami (lean) with cole slaw and Russian dressing - absolute perfection. We shared some potato pancakes and had kishka, but I was so full by the time that arrived that I didn't even eat one bite, and Marshall's and my friend Henry took it home.
-
We took the subway - that was an adventure, too.

Interesting you had a different reaction. I would hope the artist have interesting insight or trivia to add to their films.
-
John G, both you and Krista have been doing the "new" job and it is acknowledged that you both are quite competent at it, but neither of you have been getting paid at that level? Or there will be only one job where there once were two?
THere will be one job with higher pay and a sort of combined work load. I have been doing my version of the combined work load since Krista went out on maternity leave in February. She's been back since July. The work load has grown, so she's been doing special projects in addition to some of her old duties.
The issue is that we can both do this job -- and we have done the job. Who came off better in the interview? That will decide it.
-

I've never understood her appeal.
I like her. I think she gained a large following due to Brad cheating on her with Angelina.
-
Finally, I am relaxing and listening to more William Steinberg Beethoven - the 5th and 6th symphonies, mono, but I just think he makes this music more to my liking. The mono on this one is great - not the case with all of the mono Capitol recordings - recorded in 1952 and 1953.
-
I may watch a bit of a movie in a little while.
-

It is a curious situation.
-
Finished "Home for the Holidays" and on to "I've Got My Love To Keep Me Warm."
Stella has learned nothing from today's events.
Don't worry. She'll continue to try to train you until you submit to her every whim. Annabelle has led the way.

It sounds like a good move and hopefully Katy will offer something new to help you feel better.

Ha!
-

Yes and I am not a fan of them. Bryan first gifted them to me when he lived in Portland & then they were popular in Ashland.

I found Julie's first volume of autobiography to be wonderful. She (or her ghostwriter, I don't know if there is one) is a gifted storyteller. There was a memorable tale about Harrison loudly farting his way through one performance of My Fair Lady. The first five rows were in fits of laughter and she worked hard to keep a straight face.
-
Let's move on ...
-
Four!
-
I originally typed Three! and realized I had forgotten how to count.

We went to Beaches for dinner tonight. I splurged and had a rye Manhatton. Then I splurged & had their delicious fries. Then I really splurged & had their special, pumpkin cheese cake. Keith & I think it is great. Amazingly between us we still left a little which is now in the frig.
-
Weird day at work. I went to our downtown office and had to cover a 90-minute meeting I wasn't planning on attending. I'm still a little jet lagged, but I managed to stay awake for all of it.
Then my co-workers decided to decorate for Halloween. this was no mean feat. The windows were covered and a haunted house was set up. We're on the ninth floor, so a designer created a logo for Ninthmare on Convent Blvd. Lots of torture devises, severed limbs, skeletons, etc. were hung everywhere.
-
It was cute, but I just don't get into the Halloween thing. In a way, I'm glad I'll be in Chicago then.
-
Good evening.
-
In MY day, Halloween was only a day. Not a season. And it was for kids. Adults didn't make a fuss over Halloween, except to buy candy to give out.
-
Half Price Books is having their clearance sale this weekend. I went this evening after work and bought a slew of DVDs, everything from the Dirty Dozen to A Fish Called Wanda. I found only a couple of CDs, including a Brahms symphony. I also got a few novels, most for presents.
-
Then I came home and made a Greek salad for dinner with a negroni on the side.
-
I have been out camping in the woods.
-
Gratuitous post No. 100!

that sounds like fun, Laura. Did you get some good pictures?

How do they serve their friend? Fried?
-
Greetings, once again, from the home of Cincinnati chili, in a huge platter of which I have just indulged.

Did I grammar that sentence good?
-
I have also just indulged in a wry comment in the FB Hollywood group...as well as tagging BK, for why should I have all the fun?

That is rather extensive decorating.

To my knowledge, I haven’t heard a note of any Sallinen symphony. Me thinks this situation might have to be rectified.

I was thinking that too, but I couldn't find anything when I searched, so I didn't mention it.

My pleasure. Fortunately, the place was close. If it were out of town, you'd be out of luck. ;)

I would think they would run out of friends after a while.

I've seen friends become fiends, but never fries.
-
Time for me to leave work and head out. My friend Margo is out of town until Sunday, so I'll need to feed her cats tonight and tomorrow.
Be back later.
-
I love the sound of this Meistersinger, but it's hard to watch because the picture is so incredible pixilated at times that it's often out of focus.
-
I have also just indulged in a wry comment in the FB Hollywood group...as well as tagging BK, for why should I have all the fun?
And I have had some of the fun. We'll see if this gentleman is dumb enough to argue with either of us. Won't THAT be fun? Thankfully, I have all the proof, photos and dates, right at my fingertips for just such an occassion.
-
Beethoven is being all pastoral now.
-
Let him, see if I care.
-
I need to make a Costco run tomorrow.
-
But damn if I'M not feeling all pastoral now.
-
A fellow on Facebook committed suicide a day or so ago. He was a "friend" so I went to his page - very nice fellow, difficult times. I checked the private messages to see if we'd ever PMd - he'd written me when I accepted his friend request and said he had a big crush on me from The Partridge Family. It was very sweet - either I never saw it or, more likely, meant to respond and then never came back to it. Now I wish I had. But that was back in 2014.
-
Does anybody have a good source to find out what's happening in Chicago? I've tried the Time Out site and both newspapers, but I just don't want to see Hollis Resnik in Sunset Blvd. or see Jerry Seinfeld. There's a small production of A Man of No Importance that is intriguing, but I can't even find out if the symphony is playing or not the weekend I'm there or not.
And as luck would have it, I'm missing Julie Andrews by about three days. And Madonna, too. I think I can miss her without problem.
-
After the Pastoral is done, then it's on to Steinberg and Nathan Milstein doing the Dvorak violin concerto, which I've never heard, and the Glouzanov concerto, which I have heard and enjoy. And then the fill-up is a Schubert symphony, which I've never heard.
-
I did watch the first thirty minutes of a German Blu-ray of Waterloo. It looks pretty good.

Sad story.
-
Wagner is over. I should try to stay awake another hour or so. Maybe.
-
Didn't love the Dvorak violin concerto, although it's beautifully played by Milstein and Steinberg. But the Glazounov is the best version of this wonderful concerto I've ever hears - and that Full Dimensional Sound from Capitol - breathtaking stereo.
-
Curious to hear the Schubert symphony - I'm not sure I've ever heard one all the way through.
-
The idiot on Facebook ChasSmith was talking about did indeed come back, doubled down on his stupidity, so I just did what I always do with these idiots - posted irrefutable proof that he was wrong - photographic proof and written proof. Then he doubled down even more and then actually threatened me with violence, at which point I reported him to the admins of the group and blocked him. Very predictable. This guy is a huge nut case. He's written about a hundred books - I checked them out on Amazon - all self-published but the stupid way, filled with such writing incompetence as to take the breath away. And so full of himself. And butt-ugly to boot.
-
What is this page five malarky?
-
I wish the rehearsal tomorrow was a bit later, but it's at eleven, so I'll try to be in bed and asleep by two at the latest so I can get eight hours of sleep.
-
I have no idea how long we'll go. Depends on how up they are on the four group numbers - we'll run each two or three times, they're not that long. Once we get to the solo stuff, we should move along at a steady clip. I'm hoping for three hours, since we don't have two of our performers.
-
Even though I only had the sandwich and one-and-a-half potato pancakes, I am still full and so that's all I'm eating for today.
-
Synching the iPod - last time it took about nine hours to fully synch the 18,000 songs - well, now there are 29,000 songs so we shall see. I began at six. It's now nine and it's done almost 6,000, so it's moving right along.
-
No one here but us chickens.
-
I have, thanks to the Tube of You, discovered another great and grand composer, a Latvian named Adolfs Skulte - I've only heard one symphony so far (the 5th) but it's great - very film music-like, some Korngoldian moments and quite a few Herrmannesque moments. I loved it, and thankfully all nine of his symphonies were there, save for number two. Plus several tone poem things. I grabbed 'em all, but I can't get them into iTunes until the synching is finished.
-
Perhaps I'll shave now, rather than the morning.
-
Perhaps I just will.
-
Now playing, a wonderful Darius Milhaud piece that I grabbed - La Muse Menagere. Beautiful stuff. I could issue it actually. Should I. It's available to me. I'd have to figure out something to put with it.

Well...crap.
-
Over the last week or so, I've been burning DVDs of the clips that I had recorded onto my DVD burner because it was getting pretty full.
-
But over the last few days, my DVD burner has been having problems.
-
It's been turning itself off and on when I've been recording.
-
PAGE SIX DANCE!!
-
And then yesterday and today, it wouldn't stop turning off and on at all!
-
I can't get it to do anything, not even just stay on.
-
:P
-
And I don't think that it's fixable, either.
-
I think it was made in 2007, and isn't manufactured anymore.
-
Earlier this year, I was able to get similar model (I don't know if it's an earlier or later model), but it's got a slightly different way of recording and burning discs.
-
It's very similar and I was able to figure it out, but it's not the same and not (to me) as efficient in the way it records and burns discs.
-
But now, I think I might want to get another burner.
-
I'll have to see what's on eBay right now.
-
Since I have this other burner, I'll be able to record as usual (for the most part).
-
Good evening.
-
By the time it died, I had burned DVDs of almost everything that I had recorded.
-
Hello, George.
-
The only thing that I really lost was the first episode of season 5 of Poldark that I was recording for Margo.
-
Hello, George.
Hi, Tom.
-
I had recorded the first three episodes, but only episodes 2 & 3 are on Comcast's On Demand.
-
:P
-
Fortunately, Margo's pretty easy going about things like that.

Tomorrow night, Tracy and I are going out to dinner and then to the Broadway Center to see SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE.
