Wednesday morning greetings!  We got an early start today, because I got up before 7 to get out of a really weird dream about a big family outing to see The Nutcracker for which I had forgotten the tickets.  When the autocrat in the box office tried to extort $500 from me to issue replacement tickets I'd had enough.

Power is back on, but things have been a little crazy. Sensing the timing, the batteries inside both fire alarms decided to go on the fritz. An overhead fluorescent kitchen light is flickering. Another lamp has apparently disintegrated. (I don’t understand that but Mom was too exhausted to make herself clear.) oh, and a window in their breakfast area blew out. Mom covered that with plastic.

We had purchased tickets for Sunday matinee of "The Cher Show" months ago.  We also entered the lottery for Saturday's shows.  My friend won the it for the Saturday matinee, so we saw the show $27.  The seats were very good--2nd row on the right side.

Post by: KevinH on June 27, 2018, 05:53:00 PM
At the Sunday matinee, just as Act 2 was about to begin, there was a big commotion, with lots of people cheering and applauding.  I stood up and saw Cher herself walking down the aisle.  She sat three rows behind me (I was in the 6th row center and my friend was in the 2nd row center).   I felt sorry for the cast of the show since I don't think anyone was paying attention to the song that opened Act 2.

I enjoyed "The Cher Show," but as Cher recently commented, it needs work.   The performers are really great.  Jarrod Spector plays Sonny Bono and is terrific.  When he started his part of "I Got You, Babe" the audience burst into applause because he sounded just like Sonny.  As he continued to sing it was very apparent that he's a much better singer than Sonny.

My sister Annaliese called. She has no sympathy for my mother, who is not in a very good place right now and is in her full bipolar drama queen mode. I think Annaliese's patience is low because she broke her ankle. So, I can just imagine jolly things happening the next time she goes to Louisville.

Turns out there is a French version of Another Man, Another Chance on the disk. They just didn't advertise it very well. I may watch the beginning again to see it as it should be.

Wow, Kevin, thanks for the Cher report. 

And you even had a better seat than Cher!  (assuming 6th row is better than 9th row)

And to think, i thought I had a great seat being 5th row for Georgia Engel, Donna McKechnie, Andre De Shields and Lenora Nemetz (who is not really known, but I've seen her so many times and never been disappointed)

I'd forgotten that (long before "Half-Time") in 1992, Georgia Engel, Donna McKechnie and Barbara Feldon had done a show off-Broadway called "Cut the Ribbons."

That is extra hard on top of everything else-sorry.

I can get to HHW on my tablet without any trouble, but on my Windows 10 computer, I get a message:

But don't worry, BK.  The trouble is on my end because I'm able to post on my tablet through Wi-Fi.

I'm going to powercycle my modem. 
Title: Re: THE DUCK-BILLED PLATYPUS

I'm sure that that will fix it.

I also can't get to www.bing.com on my computer but I can on my tablet. :-\

Well, I reset my modem twice and that didn't help. :P

I'm posting this from my phone, so that also works through Wi-Fi.

At least I'm not having any trouble with my TV, so that's good!

I called Comcast and they reset my modem through the automatic phone prompts.

I'll call back in a few minutes because of course it didn't work...as I knew it wouldn't because I just did that myself.

We'll see what a real person will be able to do.

Back from a long day's journey into night.  More in the notes, which will be up a bit late for obvious reasons.

I'm back!

Comcast customer service had me release then reset my IP address.

Since the modem worked, I didn't need to reset it, but it didn't hurt anything to do that. :)

And now, I'm up and running again!

My cat is trying to sleep on my keyboard.

That's not a good thing for her to do...
Title: Re: THE DUCK-BILLED PLATYPUS
Post by: George on June 28, 2018, 12:04:03 AM
...in my opinion...

Well, I hate to do it, but it's time for me to get some sleep.

Good night and have a good day, all!
