Did some errands and whatnot and thankfully the important envelope was there. I had some matzo brei and a bagel to tide me over to dinner. And I've been listening to the tracks to Carnival as they come up on the iDisk - it sounds very good - it's very different vocally from the Broadway version and while I'm used to Miss Alberghetti and Mr. Orbach, their counterparts, while different, are very good, and the band sounds excellent, too.

As always DR Laura, beautiful photos. Thank you.

Jane · « **Reply #92 on:** March 19, 2011, 03:45:48 PM »

It was snowing while Sherlock and I hiked. It is nice out now, cold but clear and sunny. I hope it stays clear so we can see the Supermoon tonight. It was rather big & bright last night.

There are several monarch caterpillars at the habitat. The monarch scientist has worked very hard to assure their survival this winter. She did good.

I gotta tell you.

Wow, only ten more postings until I achieve a rather astonishing and/or frightening new plateau.

Hello, everyone.

It is grey and damp here. It feels like it'll start raining any minute.

I hope someone will take a screen capture of the momentous moment.

bk · « **Reply #98 on:** March 19, 2011, 03:52:48 PM »

Now the question is, should I do it before or after the sound check?

Jeanne · « **Reply #99 on:** March 19, 2011, 03:53:04 PM »

DR Laura's photos today were really exceptional, IMHO.

It IS gray and damp as dear reader Jeanne posits.

Glad to see the The Important Envelope has arrived.

(Bruce, is that ONvelope or ENvelope??)

Jeanne · « **Reply #102 on:** March 19, 2011, 03:56:21 PM »

I suspect it matters not to Mr BK, as long as the numbers are to his liking.

Jeanne · « **Reply #103 on:** March 19, 2011, 03:58:16 PM »

DR Jane mentioned the Supermoon. Any predictions for tonight from anyone? JRand? Cillaliz?

You aren't the only one who thinks so, I believe we all do.

Yes. I had meant to comment and couldn't post, then I forgot to say something.

I am reading a new (to me) novel by Michael Cox. I read his THE MEANING OF NIGHT a couple months ago and found it very interesting. It's a gothic tale of betrayal and murder. I'm now reading THE GLASS OF TIME, which is REALLY hard to put down. It takes place twenty or so years later, with a few of the same characters, and is again about betrayal and revenge, but this time the tables are turned a bit. I think some of our DRs would enjoy it. If you enjoy seeing the guilty parties get their comeuppance, then this is for you.

The Vixter and I have been running all over town today doing errands -- the performers in last night's production of Cabaret would most likely be pleased to know that all day our conversation centered around last night's performance

Jeanne · « **Reply #109 on:** March 19, 2011, 04:09:03 PM »

Speaking of books, where is DR TD these days?

vixmom · « **Reply #110 on:** March 19, 2011, 04:11:51 PM »

I did not realize that the Encores performance was only for this weekend -- I am so disappointed - I was thinking I could go in and see it in a couple of weeks

Laura · « **Reply #111 on:** March 19, 2011, 04:12:43 PM »

They are predicting rain here on Monday. I hope so.

It doesn't matter which search engine I use to post (explorer, firefox), I still return to the top of the current page, where I used to return to the most recent post. I must have screwed something up somehow.

This has never happened to me before. But it happened to me just now too.

Ben - when we upgraded our card program was not compatible - much to my disappointment - I have never found a card program I liked as well as my initial Hallmark greetings workshop from 1996

Ordered London Cast of Carnival

But I do have a question:

One of my books has Golden Delicious Fish as a song added to the London production. I am wondering if this was actually a new song or was it a retitle of one of the Broadway songs as you stated yesterday:

" Interestingly, some of the song titles are slightly different on the London recording and we’ve opted to use those so that we match the way they were listed on that original LP jacket."

"Golden Delicious" has always been a part of the score as the lead-in to "Love Makes The World Go Round." The other major change for the London cast recording is the choral extension to "Beautiful Candy."

Thanks for the response.

Shockingly, when I drove my niece to ballet today I saw two people biking on the bikepath. Wow! There is still a lot of snow here (it is melting slowly). And it couldn't have been much more than high 30s. But the bikepath was clear.

Jennifer I just shared your shower story with Keith.

Is the shower designed to be shared or is it one shower head?

Well they are redoing the ladies locker room. So right now the family locker room is the ladies locker room. So it's a bit different. Not sure what the new ladies locker room will be. But the old ladies locker room had 10 showerheads out in the open (no curtains). And then 2 curtained showers.

The family room has 3 shower rooms. 2 have doors and the other doesn't have a door. They each have 2 showers in them. But the one I was in only one shower head works.

I do get that since there are normally 2 showerheads in a room ... they wanted to share. But since the other showerhead doesn't work, and since I think it's fair to be allowed some privacy when you're naked and showering ... I had absolutely no problem telling those ladies to wait.

Maybe I'm a prude, but I cannot imagine someone opening up a shower and asking a complete stranger to share

Yes, I think, even with XP mode we will have to stop using some programs. It's more a problem for Anthony than for me. I'll know by the end of next week.

I've been reading the, overall, excellent reviews. If I don't like the main character in a book I tend to stop reading. Do you still think I would like NIGHT? This was the major complaint I read about it.
