Well, you've read the notes, the notes were nice and didn't cough, and now it is time for you to post until the coughing cows come home.

George, that was a very interesting comparison in last night's posts of the different versions of Titanica!

Such good news. Peter was a good friend of ours.

Peter was also music director and pianist when I presented my show way back in 1994 in Stephen Schwartz and Michael Kerker's Workshop, before a panel which was Mr. Sondheim and Mr. Schwartz. A special day, and Peter made that go well.

Cooler this morning....but heating up this afternoon.

I watched the documentary on Sunday - and I agree with everything MR BK wrote in the notes.

My question for ASK BK DAY: What is your favorite Jayne Mansfield movie?

ChasSmith · « **Reply #17 on:** July 02, 2025, 06:20:34 AM »

Good morning, all.

Boy, did we get the deluge last night. I'm so relieved that they went with the forecast well in advance and had the rehearsal indoors. We ran the entire score with just band and the three leads. Got some stuff cleaned up, but there are a couple of students in the band, and even this somewhat "sanitized" revised score is challenging in parts if you don't have the sound of Evita in your ears, so there's still too much slop. It should hopefully be cleaner by the weekend.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #19 on:** July 02, 2025, 06:31:15 AM »

I know next to nothing about Jayne Mansfield except for seeing her in a couple of movies. Maybe I'll seek out the documentary sometime and learn a little something.

Notes evacuiquiated. Recalcitrated.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #21 on:** July 02, 2025, 07:51:29 AM »

I’m partial to Jayne’s The Fat Spy. Which is a terrible and unfunny Jack E. Leonard vehicle. But is also kinda good and features some sweet pop tunes.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #22 on:** July 02, 2025, 07:54:39 AM »

We leave for LA tonight. The boy Rodz seems to have developed swimmers ear. So we likely will spend our last day at a clinic here.

Vibes the clinic can clear it up quickly.

Thanks for sharing this! I'll have to check it out.

As a kid, I was prone to getting ear infections when I had a bad cold, and I also remember it being called swimmer's ear. Is swimmer's ear just what they call being prone to it?

I've only had one ear infection as an adult, but it was a doozy requiring antibiotics. Ear aches are a nasty feeling. I hope to never have another.

Ask BK:

I'm late in answering the recent TOD about cold remedies, and I don't remember if you said you ever try cough medicines, specifically.

My go-to is Robitussin DM (don't ask me what the variations mean, I just know the "DM" variety works for me), and I do fine with cheaper store brand equivalents, usually called Tussin DM or some such.

Lately I've learned my lesson, which is to start taking it while I have the cold and NOT wait till the cold's almost passed and I'm starting the ubiquitous lingering cough. However, that being said, it's never too late to start. When I was first introduced to it, I was in the throes of constant coughing following a cold, and it absolutely helped to quiet it and give me some peace and relief. Highly recommended by me, regardless of whatever other cold remedies a person likes.

TOD:

I hauled out your recording of I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change the other day and forgot both Jennifer Simard and Danny Brustein were in it. Any stories of working with thrm?
