I rescued a cat from the freezing zero degree night. It is black with white paws and white neck. I call it "blackie". It will take "ruffy" (my white poodle) some time to get use to it - he keeps barking and lunging at the cat. I put up notices in Park Slope and hope its family will retrieve it.

I was at the Humane Society fundraiser and they have some lovely animals for adoption. Jamie de Roy & Friends
released a new CD with songs just about animals. So run out and buy it . I think I'll donate some time to the Humane Society. They are a wonderful organization.

There is a new web site for theater called "theaterextras.com The membership fee is low and you can get free tickets to lots of cultural events around Gotham

And while you are out and about in Gotham, be sure to catch the art show at the Onasis Cultural Center - at 51 St . off of Fifth Avenue. The show is called "Children in Antiquity"
It is a delightful show - my favorite is the pig rattle.It also picks up on the theme of youths training for the Olympics Don't forget - they are in June 2004.
I am going to try to make it to Greece to see them and all my relatives too - it'll be a great party.

HAPPY NEW YEAR
Working at Radio City Music Hall has been a great experience. I have met people from all over the world, fed the camels carrots in the show and spoke with the wonderful people that put on the "Christmas Spectacular"

I have spent more time at RC than any other place these last 2 months. But I did manage to go to enough parties to keep me busy the rest of the time. Meeting Harry Sperone was a highlight. He wrote "The Drummer Boy"
and scored films for Hollywood. It was a small party where he played the piano for us - all great songs and themes he has written - the notes flowed like a fast brook. He was brilliant and we all drank champagne to the wonderful music. In fact there was champagne left so I threw another party for my firends and made a vegetable lasagne. New Year's Eve I went to four parties and - a Peruvian specialty with a friend - an upper East Side one - an arty downtown one and a live band at Lafayette Grill - (that was my favorite) and I have been busy since the first with good wishes to all.
Any resolutions? Have more fun.
