| 1) Yes. Does anyone...still see...a."shrink"?? :-) 2) Did Ms. Doolittle ever go skating, perhaps? :-) |

| It’s weird, because “therapist” is right there and it scans the same. | |

| Funny you should say that. I first heard the Company Original Broadway Cast Recording when I was 12 or 13. And, I had not read Uncle Tom's Cabin yet. As silly as this sounds, I DID keep trying to remember the scene in My Fair Lady in which Eliza Doolittle was on ice. (as for the OP's question, I think Singapore covered it well.) |

| The evening I saw "Putting It Together" when Julie Andrews enunciated "Why watch me die like Eliza on the ice" it briefly stopped the show. | |

| I'd actually buy "shrink" as a current word before "telephoned." :) Although perhaps it's not so gone out of British usage? And "shrink" doesn't seem like a good patter word. It's like it's made of diction pitfalls. "I tried to call my therapist about it and they said to see him Monday..."? |

| "I tried to call my therapist about it and they said to see him Monday..."? Yeah, I think that's good. Sondheim *might* have complained that "tried to call" would have been tricky to make clear because of the d against the t - making it more like "I try to call" in tempo - but I think we would have understood it. :-) |
