The current conductor of both the Philadelphia Orchestra and the Metropolitan Opera has his own bobblehead doll.

The new San Antonio Philharmonic is doing Barber’s Knoxville 1915 in April. I hope I can go.

DR ELMORE glad to hear about your blast from the past!

Difficult to watch the coverage from Nashville.

When the show first aired we stopped watching because of the actress you mentioned. Same goes for Longmore.

Wow, she must really be charming!

Rodzinski · « **Reply #129 on:** March 27, 2023, 02:37:18 PM »

We moved where we are to be closer to Mrs Rodzinski’s elderly parents, but another reason was to get our kids in Canadian schools and reduce by some factor the chances of them experiencing a school shooting.

Horrid that that has to be a consideration.

Now that’s good economics, but awful bad for love.

An Alan Jay Lerner reference.

I just had what may be the single most disgusting lunch ever. I should have known better, but apparently didn't. When they opened the new Norm's in Encino everyone was soooo excited and I just kept thinking have these people ever eaten at a Norm's? Two years later - it closed, literally two days after I got stuff delivered from there. The appetizer plate wasn't bad so maybe they turned it all around. So, for 40% off I ordered a combo plate - steak, fried shrimp, chicken tenders, baked potato, salad, and soup.

bk · « **Reply #135 on:** March 27, 2023, 03:19:29 PM »

Where do I begin? The steak looked like a piece of shoe leather and rather tasted like what I imagine shoe leather would taste like. I drowned it in ketchup and managed to eat the three-ounce thing. The fried shrimp were tiny be edible. The Chicken tenders, the same. Hard to ruin a baked potato and that was the best of it. The soup was a one-sip affair and while the 1000-Island dressing was pretty good, the wilted lettuce wasn't. What a waste.

I hope I don't vomit on the ground. I'm gonna take a one-hour break from proofing and try to sit this off.

Jrand73 · « **Reply #137 on:** March 27, 2023, 04:13:49 PM »

I was thinking about eating dinner until I read MR BK's post. Now I'm not so hungry.

On CBS tonight at 8 p.m. is a salute to 50 years of The Young and the Restless for anyone who might be a fan.

I am glad to be avoiding the news right now.

These school shootings are very scary when your kid is a teacher.

I worry about the future of my grandkid.

I can't imagine expecting edible food from Norm's

Basically we stayed in Osaka a few extra days to adjust to the time difference, see Nayara, and get our energy back before beginning the cruise.

Once again I woke up at 3:00 and am totally drained of energy.

There once was a Pharaoh named Ptolemy,
Who tried, but could not get a hol' a me.
Left a message he said,
But I was in bed.
Avoidance was clearly the goal, Aimee.

elmore, many thought it was great, but people I trust really did not like it. It's the same thing that played Encores, directed by Sasha Lapine, so the band onstage and more like a concert - not for me.
These are words that should not be associated with Sunday.

Exactly!
