I loved reading the Sherman story in the notes today. And I am looking forward to hearing the result.

DITTO!

I, too, couldn't get to HHW or Kritzerland this morning.

Yes, I was also locked out of HHW for many hours this morning. Extremely frustrating.

I could not log on this morning either.

The notes made me a little teary today.

DR Cilla I'm glad you aren't trapped in an elevator.

Jane · « **Reply #35 on:** December 27, 2013, 09:12:48 AM »

Thank you DR Singdaw. I'm still "holding", not well but not sick yet.

From DR Cilla:

You can say that again! It took long enough that I actually yelled help once, but apparently no one heard me

Scary.

Friday morning greetings! My friend Becky is bringing pastries from Servatii's and coming here for coffee and to admire my angel collection and our Christmas tree ornaments. Over the years, she has made many contributions to both and, because of traveling with her husband at holiday time, she has never seen them all put together.

She is in for a treat then, appropriate that she is taking you treats

Jane · « **Reply #38 on:** December 27, 2013, 09:23:39 AM »

I just read the very sweet notes.

singdaw · « **Reply #39 on:** December 27, 2013, 09:25:36 AM »

Yes. Treats are always good.

Trumpet 4 is not going well today. I'm making lots of stupid mistakes.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #41 on:** December 27, 2013, 10:12:48 AM »

Just received a lovely package of new and ketchup CDs from Kritzerland.

UPS just dropped off my Staples order. I'm happy it arrived before I step out later.

Trumpet 4 vibes for DR ELMORE.

Yes, the elevator story from DR CILLA LIZ made me very nervous. Things like that always make me think of some old made for tv movie about people trapped overnight in a department store that had vicious man-eating dogs that ran loose over night when the store was closed.....

Blu-ray - "The Golden Voyage of Sinbad" which arrived a couple of days before Christmas so I only had a chance to quickly scan some of it before travelling. What I heard and saw seemed remarkably good - even if I don't much care for the rather juvenile-targeted film!

A Blue-Ray release that has me seriously considering upgrading my DVD player to BD: http://b2mp.net/products/the-puppetoon-movie-blu-ray/

Ah DougR, I remember seeing THE GOLDEN VOYAGE OF SINBAD when it played at theatres when I was a kid. My older brother Al and his girlfriend at the time took me and my little brother Dan to see it. As far as I recollect, we all enjoyed it. I don't believe I have seen it since that time, which must have been what, 1973 or 74?

I've been up since ten, but I guess I had the work session time wrong - it must be noon. I had another telephone call from Richard Sherman, so I could write down the adjusted lyric - interestingly he did what I'd started to do in the bridge and then stopped - wrote two more lines. Otherwise, he just deleted one word in each verse to make it scan with the tune he wrote, and he added one penultimate line to each verse. I can already play and hum the first four lines, that's how catchy it is. He's coming over on Sunday and I'll record it into Ye Olde iPhone.

In my CD player here at work (in order of receipt...I went a little crazy and went on a shopping spree over the last several weeks.

):

The Last Session (OLC): "This special advance release of the Original London Cast album of THE LAST SESSION is exclusive to the MADTRUST and proceeds from the sales will benefit the Trust"

Hands on a Hard Body (OBC)

Natasha, Pierre and The Great Comet of 1812 (OCR)

NOW. HERE. THIS. (OCR)

Maltby & Shire's Cyrano plus highlights from Maltby & Shire's Grand Tour (this is a replacement for my stolen copy)

Roald Dahl's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (OLC) - this is actually the second copy that I ordered. The first never arrived and the Amazon seller graciously refunded my money. I bought this from another seller and it finally arrived.

I won't get to listen to them all of them today.

And literally as I was typing this message, I was handed two, count 'em, TWO more packages: one contains the original cast recording to Far From Heaven (and "The World's End" on Blu-ray) and the other is from Kritzerland: "Sabrina" AND "John Wayne At Fox: the Westerns"!

It's Christmas again!!

Just popping in briefly to wish everyone a Happy Mid-Holiday. I may go missing for a day or two here, as I am organizing and packing (and buying warm things) to fly to Portland, Maine early Sunday morning, to start work Monday on a piece about Ira Gershwin, called WORDS BY.

Maine. In winter. What was I thinking?

I am so looking forward to hearing your new Richard Sherman collaboration, BK!

Cheers, all!

Jane · « **Reply #54 on:** December 27, 2013, 12:53:01 PM »

It should be beautiful in Maine.

SAFE AND EASY TRAVEL VIBES!

DR Kate and I met our niece for lunch yesterday. Later, Kate and I went to visit our late mother's best friend, who's now is a nursing home. She was very glad to see us. We reminded of the time she said a memorable line to me.

I used to take home movies and would often show them when we had company. One time Mil saw me coming down the stairs with my projector and screen and said, "Here comes Kevin with his movie equipment and that's my cue to leave."
