I got an email notice that Molly Hale had sent me a meesage. The message was Look and it was on her flickr account. If you go to her home page you see a pic of Dinah Shore and above it is TONIGHT

I imagine that something will change here : http://www.myspace.com/mervanddinah
It's the myspace that Patricia Moore left a comment on back on June 26th.
I've been keeping an eye on it.
The song currently playing is "I'll Be Seeing You" , a couple of days ago , it was "My Funny Valentine"; both sung by Dinah Shore.

MERV & DINAH
Tonight's the Night

I've been watching that MySpace also.

The blogs have promised a little talk show.

Cocktail Hour is coming soon... Current mood: rejuvenated
Category: Life
Merv and I are really looking forward to returning to the "talkshow" stage. That's right, Cats and Kittens - everyone's favorite "gin & tonic" will be yucking it up with some very, very special guests. Hope to see you all in the not too distant future. Stay tuned for our upcoming dates and times.

COCKTAIL HOUR - the show Current mood: giddy
Category: Movies, TV, Celebrities

Pow! Our show is nearly ready to launch! As soon as the paint dries and Merv's latest lift drops a tiny bit more, the foot lights will shine and we can get this show on its feet! No guest for our first show. Just Dinah and Merv chit chatting with Merv and Dinah! Gin & Tonic! Tonic & Gin!

See you soon, Cats and Kittens!

Where do you think this show will be broadcast? Something added to a YouTube.

Another creepy thought - the Eidolon called me kona-kitten yesterday. Why does the "Cats and Kittens" make me think of Mr AJ???

Quote:
Three Maps

I have three maps that were drawn by Dick White
on the eve of his death.
These maps are visions from a dream.
Dick said he found them somewhere between his life and his death.
He also said that these maps will lead you to
the answers needed to stop this Eidolon.

This is a quest of place and ritual.

Three places. Three portals.
Three rituals. Three answers.

The maps will guide you to each place.

Once you have the first map, Mildred Harnack
should be able to help connect you to the first ritual.
In order to do that, she must confront the evil three.
She must call them by name one by one.
Each is connected to one of the maps.
Although it is very risky for Mildred, it must be done.
The Trinity is our only hope.
Dick said they must help you Sammeeeees,
as you are their only hope as well.

I need three trusted Sammeeeees to volunteer
to accept these maps. Please send me
your mailing addresses. I will send
the maps to you.
My email is friendofunbc
bluebottle.

Thank you.


I think this is a job for the UNBC. Very Happy

Mr Abbott

Mr Abbott is a short little man in a white suit. Or, was.
He was the torture and brainwash specialist for Spoocheeeee.
He like to take folks into room 505 for special treatment (that is where Barney was killed, see this video).

He tried to brainwash Betty (had her smoking and cursing in French when she came back to Santa Monica). He tried to brain torture Happy in order to get information out of her, but her tin hat and constant Cyndi Lauper singing protected her. Higgs was next to be separated out for special treatment by Mr Abbott. He didn't do so well, and ended up giving away the location of the 4th piece (we barely beat Mr AJ's goons in retreiving it). In the end, we managed to get Mr AJ to blame him for an attempted poisoning (so that is when we think Mr AJ killed him).

Hello there darlin's. I'm here to welcome you to The Cocktail Hour. (canned applause) Oh, heh hee.. you know how.. oh, please, stop, stop now, now come on. Oh, thank you.
Well, I am sorry to say that I am here all by myself tonight. I have a little bit of news for ya. Our little friend Merv, has decided he's looking a little old. Oh, no everybody now don't start saying, let's just say "Merv you don't look too ooold." (laughter) Ha, ha, ha, ha . Well, maybe you are looking a little bit. So he's taking care of that. He has decided to give himself a little tuck on his face. So when he comes back, you may not even recognize him. But, I'm sure you'll recognize his spirit. He is such a fun, fun co-host. (applause and cheers)
But let me proceed with what I have to tell you about because he told me a story over the phone about this dream
A circle fade effect which overlaps the dialogue .
He's has this dream three times and it just makes him chuckle. So I thought that I would share that with y'all tonight.
The dream starts with Merv out driving away from Los Angeles in the desert and he is going on, and on, and on, driving in the hot...
That circle effect again.
He's driving, he's listening to his radio. And on the radio, a man tells him that he can drive out to this place called The Portal to the Dead Celebrities. Well, you know Merv. He loves all celebrities.... dead or alive.
So he goes to this place and it is mobbed with dead celebrities. Do you know he met..
Kate Smith
Ingrid Bergman
Natalie Wood
Donald Crisp
Ethel Merman
Richard Burton
Arlene Francis
Bud Abbott
Buddy Hackett
Olivier
Theodore Karloff
Tony Perkins
Thelma Todd
Uta Hagen
Thea von Harbou
Ustinov, you know, Peter.
Well, it was a marvelous gathering.. lots of merriment. And Kate sang "God Bless America".
I think I'd like to sing that for y'all right now.
(Dinah sings)
God Bless America,
Land that I love.
Stand beside her, and guide her
Through the night with a light up above.
From the mountains, to the prairies,
To the oceans, white with foam.
God bless America, My home sweet home.
(applause)
I love y'all. Thanks for coming into Cocktail Hour. Bah-bye, darlin's.


I wrote the dead celebrities' names out in a list for the visual (first letter of each name) KINDER ABBOTT TUTU.

eta2: Thanks to Lacey for the name Theodore Karloff. (or is it Theodore Kosloff? Either way, it's the T that matters. Smile )

Our Singing and Dancing Nun hasn't been seen since we left the nave.

Maybe she knew something we didn't? Perhaps she found her way back to Beverly Hills to be there for her old friend?

Merv Griffin passed away earlier this week. And his memorial service/funeral was held at the Good Shepard Catholic Church in Beverly Hills. Does that ring any bells?

Yup, played a small role near the end of our first Sammeeeees adventure.

I've been checking her Merv and Dinah myspace page, thinking she might log in to say a few words about Merv's death. I did send her an email a few days ago asking her to contact one of the Sammeeeees to let us know she was safe, but I haven't heard a word.

I enjoy being a girl
Current mood: bouncy

I'm a girl, and by me that's only great!
I am proud that my silhouette is curvy,
That I walk with a sweet and girlish gait
With my hips kind of swivelly and swervy.

I adore being dressed in something frilly
When my date comes to get me at my place.
Out I go with my Joe or John or Billy,
Like a filly who is ready for the race!

When I have a brand new hairdo
With my eyelashes all in curl,
I float as the clouds on air do,
I enjoy being a girl!

When men say I'm cute and funny
And my teeth aren't teeth, but pearl,
I just lap it up like honey
I enjoy being a girl!

I flip when a fellow sends me flowers,
I drool over dresses made of lace,
I talk on the telephone for hours
With a pound and a half of cream upon my face!

I'm strictly a female female
And my future I hope will be
In the home of a brave and free male
Who'll enjoy being a guy having a girl... like... me.

When men say I'm sweet as candy
As around in a dance we whirl,
It goes to my head like brandy,
I enjoy being a girl!

When someone with eyes that smoulder
Says he loves ev'ry silken curl
That falls on my iv'ry shoulder,
I enjoy being a girl!

When I hear the compliment'ry whistle
That greets my bikini by the sea,
I turn and I glower and I bristle,
But I happy to know the whistle's meant for me!

I'm strictly a female female
And my future I hope will be
In the home of a brave and free male
Who'll enjoy being a guy having a girl... like... me.

Either she didn't mean the literal "goodbye" - or something else has come up...

Just now, I received mail (yes, actual letter) from TSDN at work of all places. Inside the letter was a square of the trademark pink paper, with "Truth and Light" written upon it. Inside the square (it was like it's own little square envelope) is a medallion of the hand with the eye in the palm.

So... Sammeeeees III? Or just late schwag?
