Happy Thanksgiving, Darlings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                             Instead of a picture of a turkey, I decided to lead with this shot from 1968's musical, "Promises, Promises," and starring, center, Donna McKechnie, and to her left, Baayork Lee, and her right, Margo Sappington.  Margo went on to choreograph the international stage success "Oh! Calcutta."  Does anyone remember that show anymore?  Is it ever revived???????????

                               This was Donna's breakout show; her first showstopper.  And just look at that leap on Baayork!!!!!!!!!!  I could not even do that when I was her age.  Hell, in 1968, I was 13, and I still could not do that!

                                And the show played at the Shubert Theatre, where both Donna and Baayork returned to in 1975 in Michael Bennett's masterpiece, "A Chorus Line."  Donna certified herself as "The Greatest Show Stopper In Broadway History," when she originated the role of Cassie, while Baayork became the show's ambassador; no production of it gets by today without her approval.

                                 What a joyous way to celebrate Thanksgiving.  Better than a picture of a cooked dead turkey!

                                 But it is a time of remembrance, of gratitude.  Remembering the disenfranchised, and those in need.  The ones "Sittin' here eating their hearts out baby/Waiting for some lover to call. Dialed about a thousand numbers lately/Almost rang the phone off the wall."

                                 I am sure Sister Camille, Gojira, Baby Gojira and I wish these unfortunates the best Thanksgiving they can possibly have.  At least a nourishing hot meal at the soup kitchen.  They are deserving of at least that.

                                 As for me, girls, I am thankful for the aforementioned, but most of all my beloved David.  May our colds clear up, so we can enjoy the holiday season.  We have a roof over our heads, things to eat, and books, plus each other.  What more could be wanted????????????

                                   Maybe an emerald garnet from Van Cleef And Arpels??????????????????

                                  Here are Donna And Company doing "Turkey Lurkey Time."  Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!
