August 2006 -- Day Two -- Phipps Department Store Presents: Breakfast with Bob and Dann!

The day started off early with Dann Cahn’s presentation of the I Love Lucy movie at 9:30, so we had to get up at 8:00…apparently I was woken up three separate times and carried on a ripping conversation but I don’t remember any of that. When we were ready we headed downstairs to the lobby breakfast area (even though Dann’s event was a breakfast, we paid for the hotel breakfast so we nibbled on principle). Bob Schiller was eating his breakfast in the centre of the lobby area, but I didn’t want to interrupt his breakfast! But I tried to be as inconspicuous as possible while staring at him in awe. LOL

After a small nibble, we headed to the theatre to see Dann’s presentation. The breakfast was very good – a bread pudding like dish (what’s the name of it?) that had sausage and cheese in it, fresh fruit, juice, coffee and tea. Just before I went up to breakfast, I found Amanda from the Lounge with her husband and son who was sick…poor little guy! It was great seeing them again!

Dann’s presentation was wonderful as usual. It started off with the small documentary he showed at the Members party the night before. He then introduced the movie along with his still razor-sharp anecdotes on the filming, etc. Dann mentioned in his remarks that his “operatives” have told him that the I Love Lucy Movie is likely to be available on Paramount DVD next year! YIPPIE!!!!!!!!

We then sat back to watch the fruits of his labour.

After the movie finished, someone had set up a petting zoo which featured lizards, tortoises and goats in the same pen, geese, an animal that looked like a combination jack rabbit/kangaroo, and prairie dogs (!). It was unusual, but it attracted a big crowd.
