They don't do residential snow removal because they have so much commercial business.

I wasn't going to leave the house today, but we're going to see "Les Miserables" tonight. My second time.
To answer a question from yesterday - I've not thought about recording the song Lost Horizon, but probably will record another song from that score.
Didn't the Well-Digger's Daughter know the Randy Vicar?
It's time for the big push to win the Broadway World Best Special Theatre Event Award - only three days of voting left - please tell all your friends to vote asap - and if you haven't, really, don't make me bitch-slap you from here to eternity and hell and back, just do it. It only takes a moment, as Jerry Herman said. You just register your e-mail address and then you only have to vote in our category. We're currently being trounced by a show that had a cast of thirty, and a group that has membership in the hundreds - hard to fight that, but we must fight the good fight and get the little guy to win. We can do it if we all pull together and vote, vote, vote (that is three votes, although we'll need a lot more than that). Spread the word, word the spread, won't you?http://losangeles.broadwayworld.com/vote2012region.cfm#sthash.OWVkmOG4.ao3QZjMY.dpbs
No plans for today. It's bright and sunny out but also very cold and windy. I think I'll venture out and just go wherever my fancy takes me.
One last parody YouTube for 2012 - Here's a Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend PARODY on YouTube - sung by Sheree SanoCHATTING IS A SHOW'S BEST FRIEND - inspired by the NY Times front-page article by Ben Brantley, on standing ovations for the Encores City Center GENTLEMEN PREFER BLONDES which starred Megan Hilty of SMASH, a true 2012 highlighthttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUa5GGeLdH8Just trying to stay out of "trouble" - LOL!
Like DR Elmore, I'm having a haircut today. After that, like DR Dan (the Man), I have to go to the grocery. It will probably be a zoo there, because it's the Friday before New Year's AND there's more snow on the way
I have been to barber, Radio City Christmas tree (really beautiful this year), social security on 48th Street, and I will be here for another hour or so. Then I will head home and do laundry, followed bya movie with goddaughter Charlotte.
WHAT??!! For wine, maybe. This kid would like to slow things down a bit!
No thanks. He has some of those, but he doesn't care for them.
She really didn't talk about it after she got back from her trip, but I could see that she was a bit upset about it.
I'm seriously thinking about dropping Netflix. I just don't watch enough to justify the monthly price. They're definitely making money off of me.
We had a 1978 Hallus Valgus, but it was always overheating, so we traded it in.
