Well, you've read the notes, there was a dearth of notes, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - of course, there's a dearth of cows.

Today at the Washington Center for the Performing Arts, they've asked for volunteers who want to be part of a video project:  "We need your help!! We are filming our new volunteer video and would love to have 20 volunteers that want to have fun being in front of the camera as an EXTRA in our volunteer video."  We've been asked to arrive in our usher uniform (white shirt and black pants) but bring extra "street" clothes.  Since I just did laundry yesterday, I have plenty to choose from. :)

However, it turns out that as of right now, I'm only one of seven who signed up, so we'll see how it all goes.  I'm sure that it'll be fun, no matter how many or few people show up.

Yes, DR Singdaw, we were here 3 years ago before (Paris) and after (Reims) our German river cruise.  Paris was quite overwhelming then and I'm much more relaxed this time.

There is, on Facebook, a person of such raging ego the likes of which I have never seen in my life.  Every post is about himself and his brilliance and then he goes off on tears about things and says that if you don't like it he's happy to block you - in other words, don't dare criticize anything he posts.  Well, my friend, it's Facebook and Facebook is not your personal toy, even though you think it is.  People have just become babbling idiots.  So, today he does a screed about yet another Facebook meme that's being shared relentlessly - a Meryl Streep quote about what she has no patience for anymore.  He calls Miss Streep to task, calls her arrogant and a lot of other nasty things.  Only guess what?  She did not say it.  The quote is from some book by some guy.  I was not the first to point it out in the responses, but everyone ignores the fact she didn't say it and agrees with him (or not).  I finally came in and said he really should apologize for the name-calling, since she is not the author of the quote.  He, of course, has left the room, but his pals aren't happy that I think he should apologize.  But you know what?  When you're wrong, be a human being and say "Oops, made a mistake.  I still stand by what I said in terms of the content of the quote, but am sorry I went after the wrong person."  That's what a human being would do.  But today no one does that simple thing.  You want to talk about arrogance?  This guy's arrogance knows no bounds, I'm afraid.  If he does end up blocking me, at least I won't have to see this stuff anymore.  And on it goes, over and over again.

And then there's the whole Joan Rivers thing.  All the stuff being printed in the papers about "cautiously optimistic" and "small steps to recovery" all from unnamed sources.  You will remember what I posted here several days ago - about what I heard (admittedly second hand) about what really happened.  I think, in the end, when the truth comes out you will find that it's exactly what I posted here.  They're already talking about lawsuits and all the daughter is actually saying is that Miss Rivers is still on life support.  No new news there.  They've just brought her out of her medically induced coma.

DR George do you like your ?ex-brother-in-law?  It is interesting the connections we see on FB.

We no longer interact.  He's very religiously conservative, and when his daughter (my niece) came out to him, all he could do was quote his bible and say how it's not god's plan and all that.  He couldn't just show any support.  She's written him off, so there's really no need for me to see or be around him.  He does have another daughter with his current (third) wife (they've been together for close to 20 years) and my niece is fairly close to her (her half-sister, not her father's wife), but she avoids her dad unless it's absolutely necessary to be around him.

There are a few AMAZING RACE and BIG BROTHER competitors that I have kept up with on BookFace...James and Jaymes (the Chippendale's dancers), and Natalie Cunial ('cause she lives here in Salem).

It is nice to see what they are up to, and all three of them post fairly often...James and Jaymes both post lots of pictures, which is particularly happy making  8)

Natalie had a baby a year ago, Jaymes is hosting a TV show and still dancing, and James is still dancing (and sings with a hard rock band)....for those that care.

Today we got our very first actual royalty check for The Brain from Planet X.  When we made the deal, David and I were paid a really generous "advance" against royalties and its taken six years to get through that, but now anytime anyone does the show, we get paid - I knew in the last royalty statement that this time we'd get something because there was only about fifty bucks left of the original advance.  So, they've done well and we've done well and now if people keep doing the show we keep getting paid.  I noticed that there was a second UK production this year that I didn't even know about.

No, I don't think that that's necessary.  I only saw the post because he tagged a mutual friend in a post and she commented on it.  But I've never seen any of his other posts, so I doubt that I'll see (m)any more.  And this particular post was about riding a speed boat on a river through a canyon, so it wasn't anything preachy.

Liz Callaway recorded it on her album The Story Goes On: Liz Callaway On & Off Broadway.

Vixmom, I did welcome you home last night, but you had already left.

oh I know,  I am looking for a retirement more like Jane's or Ginny's but I suspect I will be spending my golden years saying "Welcome to Walmart"

Having trouble posting again tonight, especially when trying to quote someone.

When I got home tonight, I couldn't get to www.haineshisway.com at all!  I was also having trouble accessing my Comcast e-mail.  I called Comcast customer service and while I was on hold, my Firefox browser was updated and I had no trouble getting onto HHW and my e-mail.

However, while Comcast had me on the phone (and I hope that I didn't make a bad choice), they said that I'm eligible for a service upgrade...I could get up to 50 MBPS speeds AND get some pay channels, for about the same amount of money that I'm paying now.  I would also get a new cable modem/wi-fi router for FREE!

My sister's boyfriend bought me a cable modem for my birthday last year and it's been working fine, but since this upgraded modem/router is free, why not try it.  I haven't paid this month's cable bill yet (I should get it in a few days), so I might find out fairly soon exactly how much more I'm going to pay.  But if it includes the premium channels at no additional cost, it should be okay.

And on that note (B-natural), I'm off to the Washington Center for the Performing Arts to take part in filming an usher training movie that will be used to help train ushers for the Washington Center for the Performing Arts.

Be back later!

Well, the filming at The Center was fun.  It was mainly us walking in the front doors and pretending to sign in, getting our usher chat from the front-of-house manager, tearing tickets as "patrons" (other ushers in street clothes) entered, preventing "patrons" from leaving the building when they're carrying alcohol...things like that.  It all took just a couple of hours and we really did have a lot of fun.  Only eight people showed up, but it all worked out.  All volunteers are supposed to take the volunteer training every two years and this month is my two year requirement, so I'll actually get to see the finished video in action!

We also got a tour of the building.  They repainted the concessions kitchen and the green room downstairs, although right after they painted the green room (not green) and put in new carpet on Thursday, it flooded!  It must've happened late Friday night because they found out Saturday morning!  The water somehow leaked in from underground.  That's never happened before.  They were able to get most of it cleaned up, but they'll probably have to replace all the low drywall that got wet.  They've needed to do remodel down there for YEARS and then this happens.  At least it's minor to what could've happened.  They have an orchestra pit on a huge lift and none of the water got down there.  Otherwise, it all looks great.

I don't know about a jump rope rhyme, but The Manhattan Transfer (among others) recorded Java Jive (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okl_UGDKb70), which starts out that way. :D

Back from the first of our two final vocal sessions - we got great stuff and did eight songs, so seven left for tomorrow night.  This was one of the easiest final vocal sessions I've had and light years from Sandy's last two, which were fun but required a lot of work.  This time it was just occasional notes and direction.  Her voice is in great shape.
