    I've listened to that one a few dozen times, too. The 8 minute studio/CD version may be my favorite. I listed Sing, Sing, Sing as one of my all time top 10 songs in that thread a while back. Never get tired of it, whether it's the 3 minute version to which we've danced quite a number of times, the 5 minute frenetic one I posted or the last 2 we discussed.

    I believe that is the correct semester and I think I may have been an usher for Major Attractions for that show.

    Have you seen the great version of it choreographed by Bob Fosse? Truly awesome.

    The network morning show Halloween festivities are more frantic and desperate this year. Nutso even.
    Nothing incites bodily violence quicker than a Duke fan turning in your direction and saying 'scoreboard.'

    Good lord, Charlie Rose as Frankenstein on Colbert Show...it was ooky-making. Geebus, I thought Charlie was rather above that kind of stunt.

    Never watched much of the old Colbert show but it seems apparent that the new Late Night Show is kind of stinking up the place? Any experts have opinions?

    Maybe he should try conducting the show from connection to a suspension wire, as he once did at The Colbert Report.

    The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.

    Not as much fun on an iPad.

    Close but the correct answer was "because October is over". But watching the diamond closely most likely played a big roll in why Oct went by so quickly.

    Actually, the correct answer is because my birthday is around the corner.

    It is so windy in Kansas this afternoon that I expect to see the Wicked Witch of the West riding her bicycle past my office window.

    Someone just decided to dial my code at the entry gate (it calls my cell phone) because they forgot their clicker to get in, and wanted me to buzz them in. I was like, I don't know you so I can't let you in & I hung up. I may have been a bit abrupt, but sorry, security first.

    Is that witchy of me?

    Watch, now someone else will let them in and they'll trash the outside of my unit. Grrrreat, now my mind is going a mile a minute with all the possibilities.

    I've done similar things. Security systems are only effective if they are utilized/enforced.
