All the men of my mother's side of the family were golfers. Going back, her grandfather and her father were greenskeepers. One of my uncles ended up being a greenskeeper as well.
I'd like to say that I've never set foot on a golf course, but, while the tv-movieTHE TEN MILLION DOLLAR GETAWAY was being filmed in and around Pittsburgh, my one shooting day as an extra involved a bar, a bowling alley, a club house and a golf course! And though only contracted for the 6am call at the bowling alley, my day ended at the golf course at midnight. . .
I'm quite visible in all my "atmosphere" scenes in this film. . .
To misquote ANNIE, " but I've never even picked up a golf club!"
I have no interest at all in the sport, but, in hi-def, those greens sure are G-R-E-E-N! My relatives would have been proud.

I just looked up that movie, and Martin Mull is not listed anywhere in the credits!

tonight is the first preview of CATCH ME IF YOU CAN. I can't even imagine how Norbert Leo Butz is going to get through it.

I have heard some advance buzz that the show is dynamite. George, are you interested in going?

I would LOVE to go. Do you want to go, TCB??

Here is a photo from backstage at CATCH ME IF YOU CAN. The girl is Shanna Plamer who played my Annie Oakley in ANNIE GET YOUR GUN. With her is Karl Warden who is also in the show.

DR Cilla, Have fun at your reunion. Maybe not being excited is good, no expectations & you will be more relaxed.

We have reunion every 5 years. I feel like I see everyone a lot. (ok once in 5 years isn't a lot, but when you don't have a tone in common it's quite frequent). There are a couple people I really wanted to see and neither are going to be there. One is doing some women's bible thingy in Ethiopia, the other is home with her mother who just had major surgery.

I'll stay with my parents and have plans to go to an art festival with mom and to paint the dock for her. My siblings make promises to do work for her and never do it. So...

DR Jane - Will you be in Philadelphia next week? Say, like next Tuesday? Just wondrin'.

Yes and no. I'm going to the Phillies game in the evening. I'm not sure where I will be during the day (I'm staying with friends outside the city). What are your plans?

I sent you an email.

Our weather is incredibly wonderful. This week we're having highs in the upper 70s to low 80s and upper 50s and 60s at night. We've only had 2 days this month that have hit 90. We're way below average and I absolutely love it. Sorry you guys that have the heat, but man this is so nice

Cillaliz · « **Reply #160 on:** July 28, 2009, 05:28:45 PM »

We could all go send Danise a PM right now....maybe she'd get the hint we miss her.

George · « **Reply #162 on:** July 28, 2009, 05:48:17 PM »

Well, I need to go to my parents' house and put together a rolling cart for their kitchen. I'm going to stop off at my place and check on the skylight and see how my cat is doing. She hasn't gone upstairs in a while (3rd floor), so I'm sure she's okay.

Be back later!

Here is today's NY Times obituary for George Weissman, aged 90. He worked for Phillip Morris, and, in retirement, headed Lincoln Center.

My DH's aunt, who passed away herself within the past year, served as his assistant for roughly 40 years.

And, yes, I've mentioned this before, but...

One of the most cringe-worthy auditions I've ever played, ended thusly:

"Working for a nice man,
Like a Ziegfeld or a WEESman..."

Next!

I finished all of the bonus features on PLAYTIME. They were all well done, but the trouble is that since his body of work was fairly small, many of the same memorable clips got used over and over in the various documentaries. So, when the clips would come on, I'd speed through them not needing to see the same sequence yet again. Of course, if there was voiceover, I would not speed through them.

Matt H. · « **Reply #174 on:** July 28, 2009, 07:38:27 PM »

Next I sped through each of the three soaps I'm following currently. There was nothing today of any interest to me in any of them.

Matt H. · « **Reply #175 on:** July 28, 2009, 07:41:23 PM »

Next I watched a couple of MURDER SHE WROTE episodes. Both were set in New York. In the first Jessica was being interviewed by a young magazine writer who had a fierce agent who got his client high paying gigs. Herb Edelman was once again the police detective assigned to the case.

Matt H. · « **Reply #176 on:** July 28, 2009, 07:43:12 PM »

The second one dealt with a virtual reality game that Jessica had written the scenario for and the snafus that were leading up to the public unveiling of the software. Both had very easy to spot murderers.

Good morning, all! Much as I hate to lay more bad news on DR Ron Pulliam early in the day, I will say only that I had a very sleepless night in which no amount of Vicodin or Flexeril could relieve enough pain to allow me to sleep. Tomorrow's the doctor, so we'll see what happens then.

I also had a frustrating day with Life Begins At 8:40; the copyists are making what I consider judgment calls without asking me for clarification on my layout sheets and that frustrates me since a number has to be redone vocally before I can proof it and sign off on it. That was the second biggest issue yesterday. I cannot go into the first one because it would cause too many problems within my team on the project.

I always thought golf was a ridiculous sport, right up there with football.

Sorry to her you are going through such pain. May the doctor find something to cure it.

I do a few questions about Life Begins at 8:40

1) Did Ira Gershwin and EY Harburg actually co-wrote the lyrics to together or the wrote them solo?

2) Are you including the three songs that cut from the show?

& one purely academic

The show was originally going to be The Ziegfeld Follies of 1935----what happened?

Michael · « **Reply #179 on:** July 28, 2009, 07:49:53 PM »

Oh and I am not back home in Boca.

Never again will I fly Air Wisconsin and US Air. Both flights were late leaving the respective cities.
The air conditioning did not work on both planes.

But I did get work done.
