SCHIZ-O-GUNQUIT

It was a Humid and hot day in Maine's picturesque Ogunquit.
The Sun was gloriously shining and the tourists were scrambling like lemmings to the Sea.
After a dedicated hour at the gym I joined the throng and walked the shore ankle deep in the rather cold water.
It was beautiful even on the crowded beach.
I walked back and was inside by about 6PM in time for the Ed Schultz show on MNSBC.
I hardly had a mouthful of dinner when BAM the Thunderstorms hit like the best CGI in a Speilberg film.
Then in an hour or so it was clear. Then lightning and thunder again.SO I am sure we'll be treated to some more RAIN!
This pattern is bizarre. Hope you all aren't experiencing this pin ball like weather.

PERKINS COVE

Another week of work ends here in Ogunquit. Great audiences with terrific reaction.
The rain came around again and made a pool or small lake behind the theatre.
However Saturday was once again a Stunningly Sunny day and i went on a long walk to the Picturesque Perkins Cove then took the Marginal Way walk back into town.
If anyone of you ever gets up this way that trek is a must.
But wait for a Sunny day!

NOT MUCH MORE

NOT MUCH MORE to report from MAINE.
It is raining again and that is depressing but it sends tourists to the theatre!
We had our first day off in 2 weeks and I went to the beach and then saw HARRPY POTTER. I can't say I enjoyed it as the theatre in town had a lousy sound system and it sounded garbled. I will reserve my opinion once I see it in a NY house.
GUYS & DOLLS here in Ogunquit is doing very well and is a lot of fun.
We run through Aug 8th.
Never having been in Maine before I am anxious to see more of the state as what I am seeing here is stunning. Especially the beautiful coastline.
Hope your Summer is going "swimminlgy."

GUYS&DOLLS MAINE

MAINE STAY

Have been on Ogunquit for a few weeks and in Tech rehearsals for a terrific production of GUYS &DOLLS at the Ogunquit Playhouse.
TAKE BACK YOUR MINK is stripping right now!!
Ogunquit is a gorgeous resort town on the coast of Maine. Not a cheap place for sure. But the scenery is stunning.
The Theatre is a MAINE-STAY of the town. It is in its 77th Season. The likes of many past icons of the theatre have appeared here including Bette Davis and Basil Rathbone and even Fay Wray!
It is well attended and well run. The setting is lustrously bucolic and when the sun is shinning it is a joy.
It rained for a week when we first got there. In one day four inches fell and made lakes and streams and waterfalls where none existed.
On a Sunny day it is a great place to explore on foot along the Marginal Way which is a footpath along the cliffs of the coastline.
7:59 PM
We are almost at Curtain!!~

The company is all jazzed and so am I. It is a good group and avery good show.
We play through August 8th so if any of you are nearby...come on and see the show.

POLITICAL PUNDIT

PERCIPAT-A-TION IS GETTING ME DOWN!

RAIN-RAIN-and MORE RAIN!!
This is amazing weather.huh?
There is literally MOSS growing on some of the sidewalks on our block!
WTF???
Not much to share as we are in the throes of trying to manage a loan. More on that later.
Have been listening to the BLAB about the Public Option for Healthcare. The opposition is absurd. This is a necessity and 76% of the people according to the NBC and WALL STREET JOURNAL polls WANT IT!!
I recommend Ed Shultz on Air America radio 1600AM 12 -3PM and on MSNBC-TV at 6 through 7PM.
And Randi Rhodes on KTLK from LA streaming on the internet-3 to 6PM.
It is amazing how smart and interesed and on it the callers are. And how much more of an educated electorate we have!
I have called Schumer and Gilebrand and hope that more people have called their reprsentatives.

Capitol Switchboard : 1-800-473-6711
Senate Switchboard : 1-877-331- 1223

That's what I used.
This is a very important issue. We are being gamed by the Insurance companies, right wing zealots and the Congress people who are being Lobbied and therefore in the pockets of these guys.
We voted for Change and have a Majority and we can't get a health plan option that 76% of us want?? Something smells funny eh? Obama step up to the plate and slam one to the Minority!
Sometimes one thinks the Democrats are fine with this. And what about Al Franken not being allowed to occupy a rightfully electeed Senate seat. Why is the Minnesota Supreme Court dragging its feet on the decision to let him sit? Does the Democratic Senate not want a filibuster proof voting majority so it can coast within a safety zone of complascent deniability.
Anyway..I am off to Maine for 8 weeks to do GUYS & DOLLS as of June 29th. As I have never been to Maine and I am very happily anxious.
UNLESS IT RAINS!!
I taped an episode of ALL MY CHILDREN on Monday it should be aired July 21st- Episode 10170. I played a Child Psychiatrist and it was fun.
Not much more to Yak about so I will let you all go and enjoy SINGING IN THE RAIN
