Thank you DR TCB. Has your move been postponed because you aren't ready yet?

Jane, I postponed the move because I was giving myself a nervous breakdown, for no good reason. I have until the 15th of June to be out, so why push it?

"It took a panel of federal appeals court panel of judges 15 minutes to unanimously rule in favor of transgender people. It didn't take long for the Supreme Court to agree either."

Post by: elmore3003 on May 29, 2019, 04:06:00 AM: I finished my work around 10:30 last night. Annabelle kept trying to help me, and I kept removing her from my work table. Did she take the hint? Frankly, no.

Post by: elmore3003 on May 29, 2019, 04:08:25 AM: This morning, after our patrol, I will assemble the books, look over my work, and maybe do some adjustments. I need to put together my work kit of blank paper, tape, pens, scissors, rulers, and correction tape for any fixes or anty new things that come up. I'll leave the kit there until we've finished the rehearsals.

Post by: elmore3003 on May 29, 2019, 04:14:13 AM: Stella and Thatch are playing a lot this morning. Annabelle came down from the bookcases long enough to use the litter and then returned, passed up breakfast, and I hope she's not feeling jealous.
Title: Re: LET'S HEAR IT FOR FEMALE CLASSICAL COMPOSERS
Post by: elmore3003 on May 29, 2019, 04:57:19 AM: Patrol is over. It was held up by two things: Annabelle's tardiness in getting to the door - she's usually eager to set out - and Stella's running out the door and down the hall/ As soon as I caught her, Annabelle went on patrol. Now that we're back, a hungry Annabelle is eating Stella's food, which Thatch did earlier as well.
Title: Re: LET'S HEAR IT FOR FEMALE CLASSICAL COMPOSERS
Post by: elmore3003 on May 29, 2019, 05:05:12 AM: Do you remember the story of Austin? When I read the report in April on this blind dog, I decided to adopt him, and I made inquiries to the Manhattan ACC about him. He was on a Dept. of Health (which calls the ACC shots) hold for nipping an ACC volunteer who approached him unaware and frightened Austin. I told the ACC that once he was released from the hold, he would need an adopter and I was interested. The next email from the ACC told me they had "humanely euthanized" him. He was one more of the ACC's covert silent kills. I posted Austin's photo on Facebook and mentioned my attempt to adopt him. Since then, I have become an "experienced rescuer"(!) and an attorney trying to help with ACC reforms sent me endless messages yesterday about signing an affidavit about the ACC's refusal to my numerous requests! I told her I'd only sign an affidavit that didn't exaggerate my involvement. She refused.

The Dayton area had very bad storms, including 3 tornadoes, Monday night. It was way north of us, but we watched the spectacular lightning from the top of our driveway. There are still power outages and water boil advisories throughout Montgomery and Greene Counties and lots of displaced people.

I loved my Pontiac Vibe and hated to give it up, but it was 14 years old and had almost 109,000 miles on it. It was only a matter of time before something major was going to happen and I didn't want to make the new car decision under that kind of pressure. This was the dealership's last 2018 in their inventory, so they were eager enough to get rid of it that I think I got a pretty good deal.

I just got my income tax refund (sorry, Fred, I filed late ::) ), and after I pay off my credit card, I'm going to get my car serviced. It's been a couple of years since I've had anything done, so I may have to use my credit card again. Hopefully, it'll end up being less than what's currently on it...hopefully.

We had a very good rehearsal, and I'm glad to be home. I screwed up "Ten Minutes Ago, so I have to repair that tonight. We begin at 10:00 tomorrow.

Hopefully, it's an easy fix.

It's all finished.

Post by: John G. on May 29, 2019, 08:12:35 PM: I'm a little more than an hour into South Pacific. The screenplay is too verbose (maybe because it's the road show version with all of those cut scenes restored). The music is lush. The dubbing is sloppy. Mitzi is a little too Mitzi. But after hearing all the hoopla about Josh Logan's use of color filters, I'm surprised those don't bother me.

I'm enjoying it more than I thought I would.

"State Farm" has a number similar to "The Boy Next Door" - just like a cute neighbor, State Farm is there.

I hear "State Farm" is all premium seats.

Oh it's not a love story...it's a whole passel of love stories

Romantic love

Illicit love

Filial love

Sacrificial love

Unrequited love

First love

Love against reason

Love that transcends language

Lost love

Second chances for love

Love that transcends social class

Love between parent and child

Love between friends

And the aforementioned fantasy story that doesn't fit with all the rest
