Just made a rough mp3 of the two new songs I've done for the Sami project and sent them along for her to learn. It is so hard for me to play, read lyrics and sing at the same damn time.

No one can say we didn't get to page twenty-one.

Am I the only one who couldn't understand a single word of Jennifer Hudson's song?

My friend Margo also had a problem with it.

I am glad that it wasn't just me.

Well, I am sure that someone could say it.

I'm watching "Stormy Weather." It's an all-black cast but a couple of the actors (the characters are actors in a show) are putting on make-up to do a scene in black-face.

Different times.

Yes, I have seen the film.

I can't remember if it is in BABES IN ARMS or BABE ON BROADWAY that Mickey Rooney does a number in blackface. So much for innocent fun.

I've never seen the whole film...just snippets, and obviously not that scene. I had no idea.

I came across a clip on YouTube with Judy Garland in blackface.

When I was a kid, there were a lot of movies that they showed on TV, where some of the black actors did numbers in blackface.

Brrrr! It is going to be in the 20's tonight in Olympia.

G'night!

And surely someone can tell me if Mr. Travolta is now wearing a complete wig - it sure looked fake to me. And his face looked like it was plastic, too.

I don't know if he's had work on his face, but here's a picture of his real hair:

That's from a while ago - I just found two other photos and it's much worse now.

I just finished "Stormy Weather." It's a great movie and Twilight Time released a wonderful Blu-ray presentation!

I'm real excited for the CD!

The CD is amazing!

And has not only the complete score and songs, but bonus material that was recorded and filmed but not used - some of that was on the old CD, but we unearthed four more of those tracks.
