Right now, it's also sunny and quite comfortable. I didn't even need to wear my jacket. I brought it with me to work, but so far I don't need to wear it.

WTF?? They ran it for maybe 10 seconds, then it turned off...then about 15 minutes later, it started up AGAIN!! Fortunately, that also only lasted about 10 seconds, and didn't happen again. My friend Deborah heard this in her neighborhood in Austin. The chainsaw would start certain mornings around 8 a.m. and run for too long. She is a night person and it drove her crazy.Turned out a barbecue food truck had moved into her neighborhood and the owner was chainsawing the oak he needed for the smoker. It wasn't a daily thing, but it was always the first thing he needed to do on the days it was needed.

Sounds cool, Matthew. Are these musicals we would know?

Que es un "transition top"?
Quote from: John G. on January 13, 2021, 11:57:53 AMSounds cool, Matthew. Are these musicals we would know?Looks like the roster will include: Urinetown, Shrek, and Frozen Jr.I'm not a fan of Shrek, but the kids are and that's what matters. The music is great, where the lyrics and book are trash, but I'm not a fan of the movie either, but I'm looking forward to the kids having fun.
So, Debbie Allen is getting a Kennedy Center honor. I wonder if they'll do the pig's blood ballet from Carrie.
I can be such a bitch.

Paying bills. It's very irritating. There's a new system out there that the hospitals here and in Louisville share that just doesn't work. They have activation codes on them that you're supposed to use and there's an expiration date. Mine are all in February, so, of course, the message I get is that they've expired.

When I spoke to the accounting supervisor yesterday and we tried to figure out what's what, it was very clear that she did not understand her company's software. She doesn't need to know how to program, but she does need to know how to use the software to advise clients -- or staff. I suspect the software developers provided no training. I find it both scary and irresponsible.
