Hark!  I see that TCB Steele's cyber-daughter, Ann, has returned.  Now, if we could just find jobs for her and my unemployed cyber-son, Jed, all would be right with the world.

Oh, and  a computer for me would be helpful!

[George]

And one for Ann! (a few minutes late)

[elmore3003]

Yes, DR Jennifer, I loved Apprentice tonight.

Welcome back, DR Ann.

[Jay]

Skippy Jay played hooky this afternoon and went to see John Waters' new opus, A Dirty Shame.  It is.

Does that mean, no thumbs up, Skippy

Yay, Ann is back.  Maybe more people will be back this evening.

I'm on my way to Mr. Grant Geissman's to do one little bit of reformatting so the book file can get fed-exed tomorrow.  Then we work on the cover - the front is done, but we have to do the flap copy and the back of the jacket.  I'm trying to figure out if I should have any blurbs or not - I don't know if anyone can read it that quickly to get me one.  We shall see.

Perhaps, Evelyn Wood??

Hey, I'm back............. at least until I finish doing my laundry at my friend's house.

[Jay]

Correct!

[Panni]

Welcome back, DR Ann! Tab-Tuesday-Panni is happy to see you. (If you haven't read the beginning of today's posts, you will think we have all gone crazy in your abence. And perhaps you would be correct.)

[MBarnum]

I, Race Barnum, am quite pleased to return from my babysitting duties to find so many wonderful posts...and lots of long lost posters...well, not all were long lost, but were rather not here as often! Anyway, nice to see you all!

I must now fix dinner.

By the way, Freddy the cat is now called Slats. At least for today.

The first theater chat room I went in, the users could only talk LES MIZ and especially PHANTOM. I casually said that for 1980s musicals, I clearly preferred SUNDAY IN THE PARK, DREAMGIRLS, THE RINK, and INTO THE WOODS (among others). Several people wrote to say they weren't familiar with these musicals, so I knew I was talking to 12 year olds. I knew nothing was going to be chatted about there that I would be the least bit interested in.

[Dan (the Man)]

Tab-Tuesday-Panni's DD. That's one, anyway.

In all seriousness, it was thoughtless of me to not to think of your DD (having just read of her latest adventures today) and the DO (Dear Offspring) of other DRs, along with the other young folk who visit this here site.  Excellent rays of light, all.

Sometimes, Dan Zack sees that the glass is half full and says, "What?  Only one glass?"

[Michael]

Question for BK or Jose:

What is the exact title of the Disco Song that Ryan sang and which song did it replace?

Also what is the exact title of the Annie song that Tammy sang?

[Dan (the Man)]

Because of a number of distracting phone calls, Dan Zack was not able to watch PBS and learn how life began on Earth.  Instead, Dan Zack watched how Mr. Blandings finished his dream house.

[Michael]

Also this may have been discussed before: I saw the DVD of Darby O'Gillis and The Little People in the store today and the DVD insert says it says that the film was really shot 1:33 (full screen and it shown that way in its theatrical release) I find it hard to believe that a film made in 1959 was shot that way (unless it was originally meant for tv. )

My source (although not always correct) says it was shot 1:75 (Spherical)

[Dan (the Man)]

DR Dan Zack, I know we're in trouble when the idiots who run PBS think think that art is reruns of the Lawrence Welk Show and fill their fund drive weekends with Peter, Paul & Mary, Stars of the 7os, the Three Irish Tenors, the Three Tenors, and other reunions of that ilk.  While I enjoy some of these programs, they'd be more likely to get my money if I believed they knew that classical music has been performed by better singers than Sarah Brightman and they programmed more than fluff for their endless drives.

Dan Zack rolls his eyes when he thinks of the parade of euro-talent PBS has fobbed off as classical artists in the past ten years--Daniel O'Donnell, Brightman, Andre Rieu, Charlotte Church and the freakish Michael Junior.

Dan Zack did watch the Peter, Paul and Mary retrospective and came away depressed.  Seeing those clips from the early 60s when the three of them sang at the March on Washington--they so ernestly believed in what they were singing about.  And so many from that generation believed in it, too.  "I'm talkin' 'bout love between my brother and my sister."  What happened?

[Jenny]

Maybe more people will be back this evening.

(peeks head out of shadows)

Hi, everybody!  I apologize for being so very errant and truant lately.  School is back in session, which is...tolerable.  The good thing about school is that there's lots of time to be spent on lovely websites such as this when I'm supposed to be working during classes taught in the computer lab.  I'm glad to see that everyone has been doing well, despite crutches, mice, and obnoxious salesmen.

My errant and truant spree will have to continue for a few more hourse as it is late, and little girls such as myself should be in bed.  

[Panni]

Tab-Tuesday-Panni is fond of round numbers. Especially...

[Panni]

...200.

[Panni]

Hey, I just noticed that my last post was #4567.
Thought I would point that out. Simple as 1-2-3.

[Dan (the Man)]

Dan Zack has decided to end the evening by throwing caution to the wind and turning his back on the souless world of runway modeling and becoming the latest PBS eurotrash discovery.  Dan Zack will now be known as Danzaque, Master of the Zamfir.  Audiences will swoon as Danzaque allays his pouty lips against the Zamfir and plays the music of the ages.  Be sure to check local listings for Danzaque's first PBS special, Danzaque, Master of the Zamfir, filmed live at the Theatre am Kirchplatz in Liechtenstein.  Listen to Danzaque's interpretations of such timeless classsics as Strausses' "Tales from the Vienna Woods", Franck's "Panis Angelicus", Titichkowsky's "Waltz of the Flowers", Mendelssohn's "Ave Maria" and ABBA's "Fernando".  CDs and DVDs are available for a small pledge.  

Danzaque, Master of the Zamfir!

(Don't worry, this should all go away tomorrow...)

Tammy's song is called Annie.

Ryan's song hasn't had an official title yet, because I can't call it what it should be called which is At the Disco because that would give away the joke.  Perhaps I'll call it Born to Late.

Hello, Jenny
Well, hello Jenny
It's so nice to have you back where you belong

[Charles Pogue]

Or maybe even call it Born Too Late

Perhaps Miss Charlotte Church will appear as a special guest vocal soloist, singing the "Habanera" from Carmen, with zamfir obbligato.

[S. Woody White]

I kinda like the idea of "Born to Late."  I've known several people who late all the time.  It's a lifestyle for them.

[Jrand74]

LOL.....this site is so funny.

I can read fast.

Jack Randall Earles - author of "The Real Allison Hayes"

DR ELMORE - three years ago when I was directing ON BORROWED TIME, I read the novel as well.  It is now a favorite of mine, as is the play....the movie slightly less so....but I really like it.  I had a nice set with a little gate on stage right, and when Mr Brink took someone, the gate opened and the went in....with some nice lighting....  At the end I had Pud run ahead and then had him motion to his grandfather so they could leave together as they heard Granny calling to them....that of course left Mr Brink alone onstage....he started to go off....then stopped and gazed out over the audience as if seeing if there was anyone else who should go...smiled for the first time and walked through the gate....to some lovely music by Mr Elmer Bernstein from TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD....hehehehe  One of my favorite moments.

Born to late....I know those people.   How subtle the loss of that second "o" becomes...... Sort of like born to lose only they wouldn't be there in time to play.

And of course there is Sandy Posey singing BORN A WOMAN....or is that sanging?

[Jrand74]

Hello DRANN.  Did DRJED get a teaching position and move?
