And I have "face time" on my cell phone.   Do you have face time?


I have face time on my iPad.  I have no idea how it works, but I have it.

TOD3: Peer Gynt with Richard Thomas was about six hours long and staged in two parts. I did not see both on the same day.

One of these days, I'd like to do the Ring Cycle.

I watched the entire Ring Cycle that I had recorded on PBS a few years ago...not all in one (or even four) settings, but I got through them all and thoroughly enjoyed the productions. :)

Otherwise, I've seen several theater shows that are close to or around three hours long.  That's about the longest of any that I've seen live.  As for movies, I did watch the entire "Gone With the Wind."  That was pretty much all in one setting, but with appropriate breaks, though.

As for other movies, "Reds" (195 minutes) and "Titanic" (194 minutes) are probably the next longest movies that I've seen all the way through.  I bought the DVD to "1900," but I don't remember which cut it is, and I haven't watch all of it...most of it, but not all.

Listening to Willie Nelson's Gershwin album. Very mellow and easy on the ear so far.

I'm holding out for The Statler Brothers' "Ring Cycle" by Wagner!


;)

In the meantime, there is "Das Barbecü!"

;D

It's terrible having a gift shop just a short elevator ride away.

Tom, I should've asked before you left, but can you get me a key chain??  I'll buy you lunch at the casino when you get back. :D

Richard ate his usual breakfast and is now fasting in preparation for his GI tests tomorrow.  He has to drink the Kool-Aid in a couple of hours and won't have a fun night...

:o

~~~Vibes of ALL Kinds for Richard!!~~~

As for a Topic of the Day book:  I just finished reading (on my Kindle) "Seveneves," which is 880 pages in print.

Although the captain came on and told us not to worry about the "cosmetic damage" done to the ship.

I am in my cabin, lounging on my bed, eating Pringles' Xtra Tangy Potato Chips and reading today's posts

I don't either, and yet I will eat them.

I don't like Kool-Aid but I would rather drink that than the stuff they really have you drink.

Richard's not enjoying it much, either!

That DR TCB already purchased one doesn't surprise me.

I just wish you cataloged them so I know I'm not duplicating any-lol

Cataloging them would be much too cumbersome for me.  I'm just too lazy. ;) But I don't mind duplicates.  And it's such a rare occurrence.  Most of the key chains that I have are so unique that I doubt that you even could duplicate something that I already have.

It is on the hull of the ship.  We never heard anything about it until we were all safely back onboard and the gangplank was pulled up
