Well, you’re read the notes, the notes were up not down, and now it is time for you to post until the down up cows come home.

And the word of the day is: FIXED!
Title: Re: THE INTERNET IS DOWN

Fixed is right - it JUST came back.  Guess I'll cancel the appointment but first I'm going to get very cross with Spectrum.
Title: Re: THE INTERNET IS DOWN

I mean, it came back up the SECOND I finished typing the word of the day - FIXED.  THAT'S comedy.

I cancelled the appointment and wanted to get cross, but the Spectrum man was too nice, very understanding, apologetic, and explained that they just don't have the ability to see outages on their end, until they're actually notified.  And of course when I called I got the message saying there was an outage.

My various devices are set up to NOT allow any automatic updating because my more critical applications can be rendered unreliable all too easily until they and the OS are known to be working together seamlessly.

Case in point: the debacle this very week of ForScore being subject to crashing on the new iPad OS. Apple put out a fix very promptly, but sometimes that isn’t possible.

Case in point #2: MainStage is known to have weaknesses in its own latest revision, and also known to have problems running on Mojave. So I’m still running the prior version of MS and will stick with High Sierra until everyone agrees all the bugs are worked out.

My update to Mojave rendered my Microsoft office and Finale non-compatible.  I have the latest Microsoft Office now, but people have complained they cannot open Word documents I've sent.  I cannot afford to update Finale at the moment, but I need to to get back to work on Babes In Toyland.

I posted that I was happy she ate her dinner and posted later that I believed she was dehydrated and constipated. I just booked an appointment for tomorrow at 3:30, but I have no idea how I'm paying for this visit since I was expecting twice the amount from City Center this morning than I actually received.  That would have covered the visit.

I missed that she was dehydrated & constipated.  A little low sodium tuna juice mixed with water can encourage drinking if you haven't already tried it.

Listening to one of the biggest Bernard Herrmann holy grails there is - the complete soundtrack to the weird film, Obsessions - NOT Obsession - this is completely different.  People have been screaming about this score being released forEVER.  And then, a few weeks ago, after having watched it, I asked some questions and someone in passing mentioned that the entire score is CBS library music - not an original cut in the film.  So, I'm not really understanding this crazy "why don't they release it" malarky - every cue in the film has been out before, either on LP or CD, and much of it was released by me via Varese.  I could, I suppose, re-license all the tracks and issue the "soundtrack."

Since not a soul has commented on Mojave, which means our Mac users must be on an old OS - the "light" version of Mojave is interesting - it changes based on the time of day and evening.  Morning and afternoon it's at full brightness.  Then as dusk happens it gets darker.  At night, stars appear.  It's fascinating and fun.

On my first (Android) tablet, there's an option to change the color to match the lighting in wherever you are, and it sounds kind of like that.  I just found it annoying.  The screen would get darker or lighter and I was constantly changing the brightness because I didn't like what it was doing.  If you like it, that's great.  Maybe I need to try it out again.

In the extras on The King of Jazz, it was interesting to learn that George Gershwin had a falling out with Paul Whiteman. Gershwin didn't like the slow romantic way Whiteman played part of the Rhapsody in Blue and let him know it in no uncertain terms. Whiteman continued to play it his way.

The attacks on young Greta Thunberg has got my Facebook dander up, I'm afraid.  And you know what THAT means?  You don't go after well-meaning children EVER or you risk my dander and my dander is a thing to be reckoned with, dander-wise.

I'm going to reissue a show album - so I've been in touch with someone I've been out of touch with for far too long and that's a good thing.

And on that note (F-natural), I'm outta here.  Tomorrow is my sister's birthday and I need to get some wrapping paper.  She collects elephants so I bought her a huge coffee-table book from England called Land of Giants (https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/1912751003/).  I think she'll like it.

Be back later.

Well, I didn't get any wrapping paper.  I got a decorative bag.  She'll really like that because it'll be reusable, where as wrapping paper is only recyclable. ;)

Oh, no!  Good luck!!

Bernie Sanders is on STEPEN COLBERT — again.  If he keeps this up, he is going to be listed as a co-host.

He had no idea who I was, but on prompting he did wish me an early birthday and that was nice to hear.

My dad's not there yet, but he's heading in that direction. :(

I'm watching this, but I've paused it a few times, so Stephen is still doing his monologue.

I think my Mom may be ready to have him go to a nursing home, which has to be a hard decision for her to make. They've been married for 64 years.

My parents have been married 55 years this past June.
