Then I had my first meeting. Someone just picking my brain for info - nice person and happy to give my thoughts.

Then home, eBlast sent out for the final ten days of our Indiegogo campaign - this is the key time and time for the big push.

Well, my invoicing and monthly reports are done...and just in time to leave.

Now it's time for me to head for home. I have some TV watching to do up in my bedroom, so I'll have my tablet up there to post from while I'm watching stuff.

Until later.

And i am home from this Chekhov reading, it was depressing: the director, who claims to have Broadway credits and actually teaches voice and acting at one of the Manhattan colleges, is a complete and utter fraud. Charlotte was quite good and very funny in "The Engagement" and completely lost in "The Brute," a very funny piece for three actors, all of whom were in a different play. the maid Louka (it's supposed to be a male role!) was performing some Irish comedy and she was quite good, Charlotte seemed to think she was in something natural and missed the over-the-top melodrama, and the title character thought he was doing a Matthew Broderick role for Neil Simon instead of an Alan Arkin rowdy Russian. The final piece, sentimental drivel for two good actors, was pathetic performed by two mediocre ones. Asa for the other one act, "The Celebration," the less said, the better.

What i find sad is the number of incompetents working in show biz, and I'm so much more talented and unemployed. There. I said it.

Had a very nice dinner meeting at the Eclectic Cafe. Now, I suspect we'd better get off this damn page right NOW. We're not even at 100 posts yet. What IS going on?

George 1/2 the people on Long Island have illegal apartments. Because of the ridiculous cost of living and high taxes many cannot afford to stay in their homes without the income and many cannot find an affordable place to live anywhere else but in someone's converted basement or 2nd floor or basement

Larry I am glad you had a helpful person at the store today. I am sorry you were disappointed by the showcase

I got that To Live and Dine in LA book of LA menus. For me, a major disappointment - mostly a bunch of essays and text. Covers of menus but very few insides. Thankfully Kelbo's inside is featured but curiously not the outside. It's actually just what you'd think it would be - pretentious, trying to show through menus how LA's diversity happened - why not just celebrate the menus and LA food through the years. I'm not sure if this represents all or even most of the library's collection, but frankly I have more menus in my personal collection than this and some great ones that aren't featured in this book at all. Naturally my father's restaurant is nowhere to be found, but then again, neither is Langer's. Such a shame that they didn't contact me about this, but then again I would be very surprised if any of the people involved are actually FROM LA.

Seesaw I fully expect you to get your own TV series. Marvelous Minnesota Marriages you will smooth the way for perfect wedding ceremonies and each episode will end with you singing the solo while they light their candles

It is getting a little old, quite frankly. If I hadn't gotten so darned used to eating and living indoors I'd quit

At the Eclectic Cafe I had a small Caesar, which was smaller than usual, and their appetizer mac-and-cheese, which really can't be more than about two ounces of actual pasta. So, not bad.

Listening to Michael Giacchino's soundtrack for Inside Out - I like most of it very much, especially its main theme. I also love the cover of the CD.

We're in our final ten-day push for the Indiegogo campaign - eBlast went out at four and we've gone up a percentage point in two hours.

We need a couple of really wealthy people to come in at higher levels - that would be very helpful. And it's not like we don't have Kritzerland customers who could and yes, that includes you, Neil Meron and Craig Zadan.
