Well, you've read the notes, the notes noted awards, and now it is time for you to post until the award-winning cows come home.
-
And the word of the day is: TANTALIZE!
-
I forgot to mention that I was invited to be on the SAG Awards nominating committee - for the acting categories in TV. So, that will be fun and I'll get many, many screeners.

Notes collected. Arranged.

What exciting news about the Scenies! Great congratulations! Of course your direction. And luminous Sydney, she’s going places. And Lloyd was a fave of mine. All others deserved as well!

Update your Kritzerland posters and copy to reflect the award nominees!

From last night:
My mother and grandmother, my four sisters, and I rode to Wyoming from Indiana by station wagon for a vacation one summer.
When my dad was in the army, he was transferred from Germany to Fort Carson, Colorado. We landed in New Jersey and had to stay there for a few days, so my parents bought a new 1973 Chevy Malibu station wagon, and we drove that from NJ to CO. I couldn't tell you what states we drove through, though.
-
Then in 1976, the year before my dad retired, we drove that Chevy Malibu station wagon from Colorado to Washington where it eventually died.
-
And my mom is still living in the house that they bought in 1976. :)

Good morniong, all!

I did not sleep well.

We are heading to a major collision. Stella has been snooping about, and she has discovered Annabelle's mountain aerie in the bookcases. In the past week, Stella has been leaping up into the Alps (the bookcase behind my bed) around 3:00 and sleeping like Goldilocks in Annabelle's private domain. She then returns to us around 5:30-6:00, and Annabelle heads there between 9:00-10:00 and sleeps there until 5:30 in the morning. Last night, on three occasions, I was alerted to the sounds of falling books, and I expect a major cat fight over the mountain retreat at any moment.
-
Last night I finished the final season (Season 6) of The Nanny. So much of it remains hilarious, but the first half of Season 6 was dreadful before the second half rallied to a nice conclusion. I'm thinking I might want to do the same run through all the seasons of Seinfeld now.
-
Good morning.
-
It did not rain.
-
Maybe today.
-
Good morning, friends.
-
And others.
-
WE got DR Laura's rain. Boy, did we.
-
Wonderful news from FL. Congratulations to the vixkids on their new home.
-
And to the purchasers of new homes for anyone that encountered a spider.
-
I don't know why she swallowed the fly.
-
Perhaps she'll die.
-
Congratulations to BK on all the Scenie awards, well-deserved, and exciting news about the SAG nominations post.

Tonight we start the second week of performances for The Cemetery Club.
I expect attendance to be light....unfortunately.
The box office is open from 5 p.m. - 7 p.m. and we received not one call during those hours yesterday. Of course after 7:30 p.m. when everything was locked up and the box office person was gone.....the phone rang. Some dumbass who can't read was trying to call. My office keys were in the car, so I didn't bother to answer.
When that happens it's never a question about tickets.
-
Congratulations to all the Scenie winners!
-

Indeed.

Great news. All categories of acting? Comedy, drama and political?
-
I hope to get a haircut today.
-
Categories like Cruelest dog killer in an overwrought costume and Most dangerous orange dolt?
-
Remember me for a write in vote MR BK.

Wednesday morning greetings! I’ve been on a bit of a healthcare wild goose chase, but finally got a diagnosis yesterday from my cardiologist. He said “We’ll fix it” and told me not to worry. Easy for him to say…

Congrats to BK & Co. for that darn Cat!

I am dragging my ASS this morning and have just canceled my monthly-or-so dinner meeting with my director (of various other things, not the current show) which was to have been tonight. We both really enjoy those, but he was dragging, too, as it turns out, and next week is clear for both of us.
-
And today is the last day off before our final three performances in this rather ungodly heat and humidity. We only hope for no storms between now and Sunday, but the way the forecasts are going, that's a big hope. This air mass is too hot, too humid, and too unsettled to expect nothing at all.
-
Healthy vibes for Ginny!
-
Weather vibes for Chas!
-
Popcorn and front-row seat vibes for Elmore at the Kitty drama playing out!
-
Thanks to DRs Freddie, ChasSmith, and Rodzinski for the health vibes. They always help!
-
Continued health vibes for DR GINNY.
-
No drag day for DR CHAS SMITH.
-
Congrats to the Vixfamily on their new home!
-
My haircut turned out very well....I'm good to go eight weeks or so!
-
Page Three. At least I won't walk down the street and frighten the horses.
-
Oh my, Ginny. Vibes it all works out well.
-
Thank you, DRs JRand and Laura.

My question for ASK BK DAY?
Are you familiar with the streaming/cable site SCREENPIX?
It is not very expensive, but you can watch a lot of interesting movies with no commercials - mostly 50's and 60's. And anything on the schedule you can click the PLAY button on your remote and watch it immediately. And you can restart a movie that has already been on for awhile.
-
Yesterday I watched The Explosive Generation starring William Shatner, Patty McCormack, Billy Gray, and Len Kinsolving.
-
DR Singdaw, I hope your day is going better than you expected.
-
To the Vixter and Vixhubby,

Unlike DR John, we found The Friend sad and depressing. We felt terrible for the dog and the life he was leading.
The acting was fine.
-
John, your purple sage is pretty.
-
From DR Rodzinski:
My mother and grandmother, my four sisters, and I rode to Wyoming from Indiana by station wagon for a vacation one summer.
It sounds like a great trip.
-
My first trip to Wyoming was from Los Angeles, before we had children.
-
Keith wanted to show me the spetacular Grand Tetans.
-
From Bruce:
Of those States, I've only been to Kansas. The Muse now lives in Montana.
Montana is beautiful. I was happy to finally get there in 2021. On the way there we drove through Idaho. It was a great trip.
-
I forgot to mention that I was invited to be on the SAG Awards nominating committee - for the acting categories in TV. So, that will be fun and I'll get many, many screeners.
Congratulations!

My family didn't do road trip. Maybe cuz I tended to throw up on our short trips :'(
-
Then in 1976, the year before my dad retired, we drove that Chevy Malibu station wagon from Colorado to Washington where it eventually died.
Another great trip.
-
And my mom is still living in the house that they bought in 1976. :)
Cool.

Yes, easy for him to say. Vibes he is correct and it can be fixed!

Congratulations to BK and all the Drat cast and crew on the Scenie awards! And have fun with the nominating committee.
-
Congratulations to Vixter and Vixhubby on their new home!

We've been to Wyoming to see Yellowstone and Grand Tetons. We stayed in Montana in West Yellowstone, a few feet over the state line. I don't really count that as visiting Montana, though.
-
Ordered this today. Will report back after it arrives.
-
John, your purple sage is pretty.
DITTO!

~~~SUPER-STRENGH HEALTH & MEDICAL CARE VIBES~~~ for DR Ginny!!!!
-
I'm up, I'm up - eight hours of sleep - no Ny-Quil. Took me a while to fall asleep and my nose is more stuffed up without it, but I'm glad I tried that.
-
DR John G. - I've heard of Pizzetti, but never heard of this opera.
-
Congrats to The Vixter and family on their new house! May it serve them the rest of their lives.
-
Cary Ginell is a local guy out in Calabasas, I think. He's reviewed several of my shows - Li'l Abner, Levi!, Welcome to My World, maybe The Brain.
-
Enter page four.
-
I don't understand all this Republican Epstein angst. You know they'll all forget about it next week.
-
Jrand, I've had Screenpix for at least two years now, maybe longer. I, too, watched The Explosive Generation - can't remember if I wrote about it.
-
It's really nice out today. Cloudy, which makes it much cooler. I'm still hoping for rain, but I really doubt it.
-
Ordered this today. Will report back after it arrives.
I'll have to read the book to see if the author explains why they chose "frazolagy" instead of "phraseology," which I prefer.
-
I should have washed my car last week.
-
Lots of good movies on there, but frequently not in the right ratio. Still, some wonderful rarities.
-
And no commercials.
-
The morning at work was nerve-wracking. There were definitely some bobbles, but overall it is going fairly well. There are a lot of manager report issues that I'll need to try to figure out. Lots of big changes!
-
Thanks for the well wishes.
-
I did mention watching The Explosive Generation and Diary of a Teenage Wife but it was the day I announced what the new book was - Directed by - back in February 2024. I really announced that one early, when we were still entering the first set of fixes.
-
Screenpix, for those interested, is only 2.98 a month.
-
Yes I sort of remember you writing about it.
Indeed - for the first three or four shots in the classroom the boom mike was dangling into the slot....my guess is as your say a ratio probably.
I remember Len Kinsolving from The Dark At The Top Of The Stairs and a Twilight Zone called Leather Jackets - he was an teen alien from space on a mission who fell in love with earth girl Shelley Fabares.
-
TOD:
Dear BK,
Do you remember a tv movie called "Daughter of the Mind?" I don't know why I've been thinking about it this week. I was a kid when it was on. It spooked me.
-
Congratulations to BK and company, on the Scenie Awards for Drat! The Cat!
SUPER DITTO!!

Both parents smoking in the car...no seat belts...good times! ;)

This time, we had Spot, the stray cat that we adopted, along for the ride.

At least you don't need to feel bad about cancelling since he was also dragging :)
-
Yesterday I watched The Explosive Generation starring William Shatner, Patty McCormack, Billy Gray, and Len Kinsolving.
I just watched a clip on IMDB. I don't believe I have ever seen this.

Cloudy must be a treat at this time of year.

I hope your day is continuing to be overall fairly well. It seems like the best you could hope for.

LOL. Only my mother smoked in the car. My father didn't smoke it pipes are cigars when driving, not that I remember anyway.

Wow, did Spot make it safely home with you?

Laura, I remember it VERY well. ABC Movie of the Week, it aired the night after my 22nd birthday in 1969 just before we moved back to LA from NY. Great cast - Don Murray, Ray Milland, Ed Asner, my Facebook friend Pamelyn Ferdin and lots of other good actors. Now I must watch it this evening.

Walter Grauman was a very good director - Lady in a Cage was his and lots of TV movies. Nick Redman and I met him at the DGA and he was bowled over that we knew him and his work and that I'd issued the soundtrack for Lady in a Cage.

Yup. He was with us for a few years before he died. He was a good cat.
-
Pamelyn Ferdin was in quite a few things. Seems like she was quite a child actress in demand.
As I remember. I was just a kid.
-
Bruce, I agree with you regarding High Society. Because of Frank & Bing I'm not a big fan of the movie. I much prefer The Philadelphia Story.
