BK, today's topic is a real think piece!

Good morning, friends.

CONGRATULATIONS to BK on your lofty new perch in the HHW firmament!!!!!!!!

Who decides these things?

TOD:
No idea. The Beethoven symphonies, perhaps.

DR Jane, I thought of you when I saw a recipe for pancakes made from popcorn flour (popped popcorn ground into flour).

DR elmore3003 - I wonder if this might work for your desk? Only you might need three of them.

The week has whizzed by, but not without accomplishments.
One of my doctors sent his patients an offer to participate in a Stemwave program.
Stemwave, very informally, is a device that uses low-intensity sound waves to stimulate natural healing in various parts of the body.
The analysis appointment was the only "bargain" in the process, but it nearly didn't matter because my doctor was reluctant to use the device on my left hip (where I have had off/on pain for a couple of years) because I use Eliquis daily. Eliquis is a blood thinner. His concern is that the sound waves might impact blood vessels that could cause some internal hemorrhaging. He suggested I might ask my doctor about cessation of the drug, but the therapy is either an 8-week or 12-week program and it's unlikely my doctor would want me to stop for those periods of time.
Do I have any other pains, he asked. Well, I said, I have neuropathy in both feet, but there is no pain any more...both are just numb. He brightened, suggested we experiment on one foot. I suggested my right foot since that is the one I've had problems with the callous/ulceration issues (not completely healed).
I don't quite know how to say this, but the treatment revived feeling in my foot I haven't felt in more than 15 years. It's not a cure, but it's a better move toward feeling like I have control with my feet rather than attempting a balancing act with the rest of my body.
After that analysis on Tuesday, we scheduled two appointments for this week. Yesterday, both feet were treated. Both feet are much improved over how they felt the past week. This is a two-month, twice-a-week treatment, but I am very encouraged that I will have functionality in both feet that I thought was gone.
It makes the 34-miles-each-way trip worthwhile.
-
That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.
-
There isn't much else happening in this part of the CSRA.
Oh, yes. The Pizza Hut in Edgefield caught fire early last evening. Fire trucks from three towns responded. Have read the place was fully engulfed in flames.
-
On a different note, (C#), Denny is mowing my lawn as I type this. Am glad. A few sprouts of dandelion flowers opened up yesterday morning. He doesn't usually let stuff like that get high enough to bloom,
-
Because today is Thursday, you should all know what that means!
Really? You don't?
It's "cubed steak" lunch entree at The Triangle (Don't be Square, Eat at the Triangle).

Good morning, all.
-
Seems much later, but it is indeed still morning.
-
So here we are, coming up to final dress rehearsal tonight. Pray for that baby.
-
Last night's run-through was better overall, but they're really having sound problems this year, don't know why.
-
For DR Jrand73 and anyone else interested: The vocal books (script + vocal parts) and the piano-conductor score supplied by MTI are all dated 2006 and retain the scandalous words and scenes for all the world to see. People have been too busy for me to ask to see it, but apparently the changes or "suggestions" are sent by MTI in a separate document. I'll pursue that after we've gotten through the first of the two weekends.
-
So here we are, coming up to final dress rehearsal tonight. Pray for that baby.
Vibes for the final dress rehearsal!

I'd like to make a reservation, please. Party of four.
But not in the WTH we're in for section. No sir, the WTF section will be good enough for us.

Stravinsky: The Rite of Spring or Petrushka stretched harmony and rhythm about as far as one could go before 1914
Gershwin: Rhapsody in Blue moved the 1924 concert listener into the world of jazz and added new color to European composers from Walton to Ravel.

Damn! Now Annabelle will force me to buy jeans.

TOD:
I would be remiss (oh, yes! Remiss) if I didn't mention Edward Elgar's "Enimga Variations", which is my favorite classical work, bar none. I don't know why it is, but it's so "English" and moving.
Also, the "Pomp and Circumstance" marches, all six, are rather "British empire" and quite wonderful.
Yes, there are many, many more.
Tschaikovsky springs to mind with both "The Nutcracker" and "The 1812 Overture".
-
Ron that is fantastic news! Congratulations
-
I have no news

I am.at my desk eating a Virginia ham with Muenster and mayo on a poppy seed hard roll.

It is indeed lunch time

Im.thinking a side of coleslaw or macaroni salis woukd go well with this sandwich, but alas I have neither
-
Great news, Ron.

I’m exhausted.

Sorted through hundreds of cabbages today, many of them rotten.

The smll was unpleasant.

Are you sure the unpleasant smell wasn't you, DR John G.? ;)

Amazing, awesome medical news from DR Ron Pulliam.

I'm up, I'm up - six hours of sleep.

I think Copland was very influential, certainly Philip Glass, like him or not, Mahler, yes to Rhapsody in Blue, too.

From George:
Yes, they were around the whole time I was at their place.
That is not a home to go to if you don't like dogs and just the type of home I like to visit :)
-
DR Jane, I thought of you when I saw a recipe for pancakes made from popcorn flour (popped popcorn ground into flour).
:o ;D I must tell Keith about this.

Nope, that didn't appeal to him :))

This nice fellow on Facebook, who happened to be in the original company of Follies, was raving about a Netflix limited series, as if it were brand new. It sounded familiar to me but I haven't had Netflix for two years. He was bowled over by the twists and turns and thought it was one of the best. The replies agreed - the BEST. So, I looked it up online and it wasn't new, it was made in 2021. I checked the notes and sure enough I watched on the last day of February, 2022. It was the show that got me to cancel Netflix. Here's what I wrote:
"Yesterday, I decided to watch all eight episodes of a Flix of Net Limited Series. The eight episodes run about six hours in total, which is about four hours too many, as per usual with these things. The show was entitled Clickbait, which proved to be fairly accurate as a description. Despite taking place in Oakland, it was filmed in nearby Australia with mostly Australian actors. These limited series mysteries are all from the same cookie cutter, I’m afraid, both in writing and directing. I think they all harken back to the Swedish show The Killing, at least its first season. In each episode you’re led down the garden path to suspect this or that person or thing, but since there are many episodes to come, I think you know that that’s all a bunch or communist herrings. But you go along with it, you watch, you feel stupid for watching, you wince at the predictable and horrible dialogue, you don’t really care about anyone (there IS one excellent performance by an actor around episode six or seven and you do care about him but that’s the actor, not the writing). But what do we really know about these limited series other than that they’re limited in creativity and talent? Well, here’s what we know: At least twelve times we will hear the line, “We’re done here.” We know in every episode, either in the middle or at the beginning or end, there will be some useless and pointless song. We know that if someone apologizes or feels bad they will not merely say, “I’m sorry,” they will either say, “I’m SO sorry” or “I’m SO SO sorry.” And the latest of the cliches, when someone is on the computer looking at something or texting or getting texts we will have that graphic not as a cutaway but huge on the screen for no reason whatsoever. I feel like I saw the show that began that malarkey, but I can’t remember what it was – but it’s now part of the visual landscape of these sorry shows. This one stars Zoe Kazan and one or two other American actors, none of whom really have anything to play except the same beat over and over again. We know that there will be conveniences throughout, we know logic will play no part whatsoever, and in the case of this particular limited series, the reveal in the final episode is so ridiculous, so preposterous, so insulting, as to defy credulity. And then we must continue watching as they wrap up that ridiculousness. And yet, it was quite popular on Netflix – at least Netflix says so. It wasn’t quite so popular with the critics, most of whom did what I did but not strongly enough – told it like it was, laid it on the line, and not beat around the bush. There, I’ve said it and I’m glad and I don’t care who knows it."

That was interesting reading!
-
Thank you and fuck you, Supreme Court justices. It's time for several to be forced into retirement, executed, or imprisoned.
-
Pretty much.
-
In the mornings before getting up I usually check our ring camera for any unusual activity.
-
This morning it showed activity four times just minutes apart.
-
While I was curious what it could be, I never imagined it was a mother duck and her newly hatched babies walking back and forth to our front door.
-
I had completely forgotten that a while back a neighbor showed me where a duck had made an indention in the planter as if she was going to lay eggs. I forgot to look if there were eggs, which I obviously would have seen had I looked.
-
After watching all the videos with Keith he sent me out to check and see if they were trapped in the building. I found the neighbor had already opened the front entrance door for them, however, I needed to coral them out while she kept them from going her direction and away from the door.
-
Once outside, in the rain, the mother lead them around the back of the building and to the closest pond.
-
Unfortunately neither my neighbor or I thought to take a photo when they were right in front of us. Keith did take a photo from our back door as they were walking towards the pond. I will try and post it.
-
The photo was too large. I will have to downsize it which makes for poor quality.
-
Poor photo, but you get the idea how fun it was to see them walking through our atrium and out the back.
-
Wow! Great story and photo!
-
The ballet is now up online at the IUMusic Live! Site: https://iumusiclive.music.indiana.edu/#/
I hope you enjoy iot!

Great! Thanks, DR elmore3003. I am itching for a reprise.
-
Wonderful story and photo, DR Jane. I saw your video on FB.
-
Great and interesting medical news from DR RON PULLIAM.
-
I hope DR CHAS SMITH is stumbling along in his dress rehearsal.
-
We had many many people out with conflicts tonight.....and after we got started, I realized I didn't really need to be there....so home I came.
-
Wow! Great story and photo!
Thank you. It was a fun way to begin the morning and got me out of bed super fast.

which cast did they use?
-
Back to 21 Beacon Street. Enjoying the first episode a lot.
-
I would add Bach and Wagner to the influential list -- as Elmore said earlier, whether you like the later's music or not.
-
As Tawin supposedly said, Wagner's music is better than it sounds.
-
Twain said a lot of things.
-
He wrote a lot of things.
-
But never the twain shall meet.
-
Or so they say.
-
Almost to the next page.
-
PUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSH!
-
Five!
-
These episodes come with the original commercials.
-
The first featured Robert Horton a few years before 110 in the Shade and Tennessee Ernie Ford for Ford cars
-
Whatever happened to Dennis Morgan?
-
He's not the pretty boy he was in Christmas n Connecticut

I think Copland was very influential, certainly Philip Glass, like him or not, Mahler, yes to Rhapsody in Blue, too.
Speaking of Copland, I came across this set on Amazon.com: Copland Conducts Copland (https://www.amazon.com/Copland-Conducts-Aaron/dp/B0CQ7562YZ/):
This boxset includes Aaron Copland's complete own recordings for Columbia Masterworks from 1935 to 1976 on 19 CDs plus recordings of two of his works by Leonard Bernstein on one additional CD. Although Sony Classical has issued many of Aaron Copland's CBS/Columbia recordings on CD before, including a major 5-disc set in 2013, this new 20-disc collection marks the first all-inclusive compilation of Aaron Copland's authoritative interpretations with the composer's six early recordings for the first time on Sony Classical CD. Aaron Copland not only created some of the most original, influential, and appealing compositions in the history of American music. He also left posterity a body of recordings that illustrate exactly how he wanted these pieces to go - a priceless, new 20-CD legacy of authentic performances, the 'heart of the composer's discography'. The boxset includes collaborations with Benny Goodman, Isaac Stern, the Juilliard String Quartet, William Warfield, Henry Fonda, and more.
-
That sounds like it could be an appealing purchase.
-
From George:
Yes, they were around the whole time I was at their place.
That is not a home to go to if you don't like dogs and just the type of home I like to visit :)
I'm not a dog person, but I had no trouble and thoroughly enjoyed being in their house with their dogs. :D
-
Good night, all.

Thank you and fuck you, Supreme Court justices. It's time for several to be forced into retirement, executed, or imprisoned.
Agreed. ::)

Agreed! ;D

TOD: In addition to the great choices mentioned, how about Puccini? He has 3 of the top 10 most frequently performed operas in La bohème, Tosca, and Madama Butterfly. Several contemporary operas have been critiqued for being too close to Puccini, but I can think of worse things. He was a huge influence on Andrew Lloyd Webber, including La fanciulla del West serving as source material for "Music of the Night."

I remember reading back in the day that the estate of Puccini sued ALW because Puccini's works were still covered under "grand rights" (I think that that was the term), and ALW lost! :o

So, there I was, like a zombie, watching YouTube things. I got up, passed the bedroom and said to myself, "Myself, perhaps I'll just get in bed for thirty minutes." That was at seven-thirty. Now it's nine-thirty. Some thirty minutes.

Strange dreams.

I had Uptown Mac and Cheese earlier, around one. That's mac and cheese, cubes of chicken, peas, asparagus, and a kind of au gratin topping - very good.
-
I was thinking about getting a burger or something but I won't. I have some matzos here and some whipped butter.
-
That'll do for a snack.
-
I do not think we should be on page five.
-
I simply do not think so.
-
It seems wrong.

And it was, so now we're on page six.
-
Good night, all.
Good night, John.
-
It seems wrong.
-
It is wrong.
-
I am in Tennessee.

Helping sis prepare for her son’s rehearsal dinner.
-
And seeing my mother.
-
Say hi to mom for all of us.

Be sure to ask her why we're still on page six.

It seems wrong.

Wrong is what it seems.

So, I ordered the Japanese Takarazuka Cast (Flower Troupe) recording of Arthur Kopit and Maury Yeston's Phantom (https://castalbums.org/recordings/-2006-Takarazuka-Cast-Flower-Troupe/6266) (ファントム).
-
I ordered it from Amazon.co.jp on April 19 and it arrived today, all the way from Japan!
-
I paid $32 05 (USD) total...the funny part is is that the CD actually only cost $3.53 and shipping was $28.52.
-
I could've ordered a copy from Amazon.com for as little as $27.09, but the earliest that any copy from Amazon.com would arrive is between May 22 and June 7. :o
-
But getting it from Japan in less than a week versus as much as a month and a half later was definitely worth the few extra dollars!
-
In the specific listing that I bought, the quality was listed as "good."
-
But what I got was practically brand new!
-
No scratches, the booklet was pristine, and it even included the obi strip!
-
Here's the cover:
-
And here's the obi strip:
-
It's a double CD and the booklet is thicker than your standard booklet because it looks like it contains the complete lyrics.
-
The jewel case also looks like it's thicker than a standard jewel case to make room for the thicker booklet.
-
I love it when they do that so the corners of the booklet don't get ripped up when you try to put it in a jewel case that's too small.
-
Tomorrow, I'm finally going to be able to play cards at my mom's since Incorruptible is over. :)
-
My friend Shelly is going to join us, so that'll be fun.
-
Dee, one woman who plays with us (not my sister DeeDee), won't be there because her brother died and she went to his funeral. :(
-
And now, since we're so close...
-
PAGE SEVEN DANCE!! ;D
-
s e v e n ! ! ! ! ! ! !
-
The Internet went down for a few minutes.
-
Annoying.
-
I do not care for page seven.
-
Where'd George get to?
-
We know he's eating some damn thing.
-
A burrito?
-
Taco?
-
Beef bourguignon?
-
Beef jerky?
-
Ham and Swiss on rye with mustard?
-
I wouldn't mind one of those right now.
-
Perhaps he's eating a Subway.
-
Well, a Subway sandwich, not an actual subway.
-
He ain't here, that's for certain.
-
Perhaps a slice of pizza?
-
Nope ..not eating anything, sadly.
-
I want a ham and Swiss on rye with mustard.
-
I could go to Ralph's and get the makings, but I shan't.
-
I shall be good.
-
I shall not be bad.
-
Glad the outage was only a couple of minutes.
-
George says he isn't eating anything.
-
Do we believe that?
-
Do we believe that?
You can believe what you want, but it's true.
-
I think he could be eating veal scallopini.
-
Or perhaps linguini with clams.
-
Maybe even clams with linguni.
-
However, I do have a chocolate bar with crisped rice, so there's that. :)
-
Or a bowl of Frosted Flakes.
-
I think he could be eating veal scallopini.
Nope.

I knew food would get us to page eight.
-
Food always propels us forward.
-
Or perhaps linguini with clams.
Not going to happen...clams = :P
-
Or a bowl of Frosted Flakes.
That would not be bad. :)
-
The only food I have in the house is whipped butter, horseradish, a couple of Diet Cokes, pasta, and an onion.
-
No snacks.
-
Well, matzos, but I've already had three of those and I feel like vomiting on the ground.
-
I'd like some Howard Johnson's fried clams.
-
They had good tartar sauce.
-
So when I was in high school (back in the 1980s), as a fund raiser, we students sold World's Finest Chocolate bars and I saw a display for some at Fred Meyer last week!
-
I wish the Smoke House sold their tartar sauce and thousand island dressing.
-
I remember World's Finest Chocolate Bars.
-
And, of course, "World's Finest Chocolate" was a brand, not an actual evaluation. ::)
-
I want my JuJube Chewy Eyetalian nougat candy NOW.
-
These, however, are MUCH smaller than what I remember selling.
-
It's in my Amazon cart along with another weird Eyetalian candy I love, Torrone nougat candy with almonds.
-
Haven't had the latter in ages.
-
I still have quite a few Coffee Crisp candy bars from Canada through kind courtesy of DR Rodzinski and Fred Meyer's discount shelves! ;D
-
Anyway, here's the WFC bar that I have available to me:
-
And this pic shows the thickness:
-
I want something, damn it.
-
I also have some eggs but I do NOT want that.
-
I don't remember how big they were in the '80s, but they were not this thin. :-\
-
There must be something I can have.
-
But what?
-
How late is In N Out open?
-
Sadly, they don't do delivery services.
-
THAT is a damn shame.
-
How late is In N Out open?
There isn't one here, so I have no idea.
-
PAGE NINE DANCE!!
-
I could see what's open on DoorDash - wouldn't mind a little salad or soup or a small sandwich.
-
Well, I just ate my WFC bar with crisped rice and it was quite tasty. :)
