LOL that reminds me of the moment in ST: The Undiscovered Country when the sexy shape-shifter sneered at Kirk about having fullfilled some sort of lifelong dream...
"I can't believe I kissed you."
"Must have been your lifelong ambition!"

I once met me - it was very exciting.
I trust that when you did, you said "I beg your pardon, but aren't you Guy Haines?"

I have always looked forward to my all-too-infrequent lunches with Dana Wilcox in Boynton Beach when I am in Florida to visit with my in-laws. This is going to be even more difficult when Dana retires to Austin, Texas sometime in the future, although I have a fun
brother and sister-in-law in far-distant Houston. Speaking of Houston, if I ever get down there again, I have to look up Dr. Zambra.
I am warmed to know that Mike ("MGH") considers me a close friend, as I, also, know that if distance did not separate us, I would be talking with and seeing him on a weekly basis. (Haven't we all met people we consider close friends by means of the internet that we wish were not so geographically distant?--I'm thinking especially of Joan Hue, who seems such a wonderfully decent, open-minded person that even my wife would enjoy the company of, film music chatter nothwithstanding.)
I'd also love to have a blitzed evening with Niall Ahearne (and I'm sure it would be truly blitzed!), fellow CINEFANTASTIQUE veteran, Chris Kinsinger, and the irrepressible Zippy.
No doubt, I'm forgetting many others, but my senior cheesebrain overcomes me.
And, let's not forget that Grand Poobah, Lukas Kendall, whom all our glory and friendship is due.

Today, I dreamed I was at Manderley. And I was. What a delightful gentleman he is. Nick Redman and I lunched with him and it was really fun.

The feeling was mutual, indeed!!!
In attendance were the distinguished Mr. Redman, the beauteous Ms. Julie Kirgo, the lively and interesting (and also now very svelte) Guy Haines, and little old me.
Haineshisway neglects to tell you that today was his birthday, so we all lifted a glass in honor of our own Mr. Kritzerland!
He also neglects to tell you that he is just back from New York where he directed a very successful "Broadway Cares" benefit featuring tributes and star performances dedicated to the work of Burt Bacharach. It was just one of many benefit concerts that Mr. Kritzerland donates his valuable time and energies and talents to and he should be much applauded for lending his expertise to such worthy causes.
He also neglects to tell you what he told us: the composer and contents of his next Kritzerland cd, to be announced on Christmas Eve. I certainly won't reveal his secret, but I can assure you that it's something everyone has been requesting and I'm gonna be first in line to buy a copy. Can't wait.
So now we have to contend with 'the manderley tease' as well! Come on, be a pal and give us a clue, we're your friends afterall, hee hee!

I know Jim Cleveland very well; we live in the same town and get together quite often.
I have also met Niall Ahearne; a wonderful person; I stayed with him in Ireland and we raised a bit of hell... well maybe a lot of hell. We celebrated my birthday (I was 64) at a pub called THE PLAYWRIGHT; he got the band to play WALK ON THE WILD SIDE for me; one of the best nights of my life. At least what I remember of it.
I also talk to Vinylscrubber on the phone quite often and consider him a close friend.
Mike, "wonderful" ? I'm glad I have one fan, but thanks anyway. "Hell" ? heck that was only preparation for 'spring training'! Don't forget we have that night captured on a (somewhat bizarre) video, remember it was filmed ? You wander in and out of frame in various sequences, and in one fabulous shot you give a "wonderful" smile and wave directly at the camera! The funniest thing I remember from that night, apart from you wobbling on the stairs after, eh...a wee drop of Rare Eagle, is when the band asked me if you had a special request that you'd like to hear, you said "La Bamba" I told the band, they agreed, and immediately started playing "Tecquila" and nobody but you noticed the difference! We'll have to do it again, when are you coming over ? Bring the vinylscrubber with you and we'll give him the treatment too, yippee!

Yeah I got you both coming and going. When I see you at that party next week I'll put you down for three. I have to pad these things out. I don't get around much any more.
