Back - replaced the tire, and one other in the rear - tires have gotten pricey, haven't they.  Since it took an hour I went to Du-Par's and had two poached eggs on toast.

If you copy a URL, especially a long one, go into reply and paste it in, as it appears below



Once you have done this you can put the cursor between the ][/url] and type whatever you want to describe the link for example ]Library of Congress[/url]

You can then, if you like, highlight your description and click B to bold the description and then you can change the color, if you like, by highlighting it again and clicking on Change Color. Choose the color you prefer and it adds the code to the link

]Library of Congress[/url]

The above is an example so you see how it will look in the reply box. IT WON'T LOOK LIKE THIS (IF YOU'VE DONE IT CORRECTLY) ONCE YOU CLICK POST. IT WILL LOOK LIKE THIS

Larry's Library of Congress Link

That's a rather lengthy and convoluted explanation of how to make your link shorter.

Click reply to my message and you should see all the coding and how it looks in the reply box

Making my link shorter has never been a concern of mine.

Does anyone have the CD of Carmelina - I don't know the score at all - that and 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue - looking for a few interesting songs from those shows and need suggestions.  I'd have to assume there's something decent in Carmelina since it's Burton Lane.

[Ben]

Got to study that and work on it. 

But did you mean click Quote, as opposed to click Reply?

Arghh, yes I did. Thanks for catching that!

Although, to do all the work I described you do have to be in the Reply mode.

The Glob and the Bold and the Color don't appear in Quote. But if you click quote and get the material in the quick reply box you can just highlight it, cut it, click reply and then paste it into the Message Field and go to work.

Well then, I have succeeded in taking my first step on the road to enlightenment!

I think he did mean "Quote."

This game's too hard for little me.

"One More Walk Around the Garden" is fantastic.

[Jrand74]

I do not have recordings of these two shows.

[elmore3003]

BK, check your email at HHW.

[Jrand74]

But I have been listening to ILLYA DARLING again....the wonderful Kritzerland release.....

[Ben]

There is no official recording of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue since it was a huge flop. There are recordings of songs from the show and bootlegs are floating about. It was released with changes (IIRC) as White House Cantata and it's available on Amazon, and probably other places as well.

I've got Carmelina, but not with me. And I have the recording of White House Cantata, which is the score of 1600.

Best song is "One More Walk Around the Garden" from "Carmelina." Also, love the young girl's "All That He'd Want Me to Be" from that score.

"President Jefferson Sunday Luncheon March" from "1600" is fun, as is "Duet for One." "Take Care of This House" is moving.

White House Cantata

Patricia Routledge, whose comment about her costar was "That man was never sober!," stopped the show completely with the classic "Duet For One," but I don't think it comes off well on recording since you really need to see her play two characters at the same time. Judy Kaye used to perform it, and she recorded it for McGlinn, who was obsessed with the show, on his "Broadway Showstoppers" recording.

BK, I may have a vocal score for "White House Cantata." I checked and I do.

[elmore3003]

I love "Lud's Wedding" as well.

[elmore3003]

On the "White House Cantata" recording, June Anderson does not successfully navigate "Duet for One." I know she was a favortie Bernstein soprano, but she is no musical theatre actress.

In reference to yesterday's haul, I watched THE AMAZING COLOSSAL MAN last night.  Recognized a few obvious scenes, but I don't think I'd seen this one in decades.  Loved every minute of it.  I'll have to watch the two Colossal films together and in order sometime soon.

(And how bizarre, now -- ordering, receiving and loading a VHS tape!  Would it work??  How would my player handle it??  Well, it handled it beautifully, and the film looked great throughout -- on 50" plasma, yet.  Better, in fact, than transfers of other Gordon finds on DVD, such as TORMENTED and PICTURE MOMMY DEAD, which I only briefly sampled, to find they are very obviously from VHS sources.)

[ChasSmith]

Damn, I thought you both were saying "White Castle Cantata".

That reminds me, BK, I saw something on the innerweb yesterday which showed an old 1920s or 30s photo of a strange diner shaped like an airplane which was where Dupar's on Ventura now is.

I love my super.  He makes me laugh. I gave him my keys to the apartment because i can't guarantee I can be here when he finally lines all the tenants in 1C, 2C, and 3C with the super. This leak is driving him crazy: up to an apartment to run water in the sink or tub, then down to the basement to see if any water is showing up, up to another apartment to run the water . . .

I have been waiting for this! Tonight's reading just arrived from Amazon.

[Jrand74]

I may have to buy that book DR ELMORE.

Will we read about the New Haven tryout when the chandelier rising in the ballroom scene took Mr Harrison's toupee with it?

I don't know! I never heard that story before.

[Jrand74]

That's because I lived in Indiana and we are IN THE KNOW about all things Broadway here.....

[Jrand74]

Which reminds me of an episode of The Beverly Hillbillies when everyone knew how wild Hollywood parties were because they had a relative who worked in a mill in Springfield...

After a half and hour of this, Jed declared that they were going to find out for themselves just how wild Hollywood was.....and Jethro said: "Hot dog!  Are we goin' to a Hollywood party?"  And Jed replied: "Nope, we're heading for that mill in Springfield!"

[Jrand74]

That story was in THIS book DR ELMORE

Thank you for all of yesterday's vibes for my friend Amy.  She went home from the hospital late in the afternoon with orders to rest and eat a soft diet.

When I first read this (too quickly, of course), I thought that you had written, "...with orders to rest and eat a diet soda."

[George]

~~~Continued Vibes for Amy!!~~~

Keith Garabian! I wonder where he found that info. He's a scavenger.
