Title: HERE COMES JULY AND FIREWORKS AND JOY AND CELEBRATION OH MY
Post by: bk on July 01, 2015, 12:51:17 AM: Well, you've read the notes, the notes had fireworks and joy and celebration, and now it is time for you to post until the celebratory cows come home.

Title: Re: HERE COMES JULY AND FIREWORKS AND JOY AND CELEBRATION OH MY
Post by: ChasSmith on July 01, 2015, 03:01:56 AM: First!

Good morning, all.

From one who is not really up. Just been listening to the most incredible rain and thunder ever. And I mean EVER. On the radar we were in the red.

Seems to have passed. Probably on its way to Boston or out to the ships at sea.
Title: Re: HERE COMES JULY AND FIREWORKS AND JOY AND CELEBRATION OH MY
Post by: ChasSmith on July 01, 2015, 03:03:26 AM: Okay, that's all for now.

A little more sleep, hopefully.

Tarnation! :P

Post by: FJL on July 01, 2015, 04:25:25 AM: Indeed, that was some loud thunderstorm at 4 a.m. or so.

Sounded like someone was practicing for Saturday's fireworks.

Title: Re: HERE COMES JULY AND FIREWORKS AND JOY AND CELEBRATION OH MY
Post by: John G. on July 01, 2015, 05:01:35 AM: We had a huge thunderstorm yesterday at work. It rained like crazy, prompting flash flood warnings. As I drove home after the rain, water was high in the culverts and moving at a violent pace.

By the time I got home, I discovered that my neighborhood had a sprinkling and little else.

Guess I'll be watering today.
Title: Re: HERE COMES JULY AND FIREWORKS AND JOY AND CELEBRATION OH MY
Post by: ChasSmith on July 01, 2015, 05:28:06 AM: And I got two more hours of sleep after that. With two of the craziest, most intense, wacky dreams ever.

Had some windows open, and was really lucky it wasn't blowing in. Some wet window sills, is all. But the sound of that rain is so gorgeous and the air so delicious that you don't WANT to close the windows more than necessary. A truly incredible storm, that was.

Post by: elmore3003 on July 01, 2015, 05:40:37 AM: Good morning, all! I am on pills and needles today wondering if Office depot will show up and cart away their mess.

I slept well last night. i've been rereading the book about the stage designs of William and Jean Eckart, which is full of stupid errors by the author, who should knew better as a theatre person: orchestrator William Russell Bennett, actor Robert Roundsville are the two big clinkers. Still, the book is gorgeous to look at, and the Eckarts' comments are both informed and entertaining. So, i read far too long last night and as a consequence slept in.

Good morning, all! I am on pills and needles today wondering if Office depot will show up and cart away their mess.

I slept well last night. i've been rereading the book about the stage designs of William and Jean Eckart, which is full of stupid errors by the author, who should knew better as a theatre person: orchestrator William Russell Bennett, actor Robert Roundsville are the two big clinkers. Still, the book is gorgeous to look at, and the Eckarts' comments are both informed and entertaining. So, i read far too long last night and as a consequence slept in.

Does the book mention the McNay Museum here in San Antonio? It has a collection of Eckart designs. They even staged a revue if songs from musicals that the couple worked on. Sadly, the organizers were too enamored of Maggie Flynn.

It lists the sources for all materials, so I'm sure it does. The book is now out of print so I'm glad I purchased it new.

DR Elmore, I think they had an exhibit at ALA, but I won't know for sure until FedEx delivers my big box o' swag. I included in that shipment the 350-page program book with the exhibit directory in the back.

I do remember seeing a nice Packard appreciation wall at Monterey Bay Aquarium.

I think the Packard Appreciation Wall at the Aquarium is for

The David and Lucile Packard Foundation (http://www.packard.org/)

which is different from the

Packard Humanities Institute (http://www.packhum.org/)

The Packard Foundation is a very big and long time supporter of the Aquarium.

Monterey Bay Aquarium (http://www.packard.org/what-we-fund/institutional-support/monterey-bay-aquarium/)

The Packard Humanities Institute (PHI) doesn't give grants to organizations such as the Aquarium. It's an "operating foundation" a distinction not easy to define to the layman but essentially it means that Operating Foundations choose what they do and are most often "non-grantmaking" organizations. PHI focuses on archaeology, music, film preservation, historic conservation, and early education. The work Larry has done for them is not "grant" related. It's one of their many projects over the years. If they choose to make a grant it will be to a "pre-selected" organization. They do not solicit grant proposals or applications.

Post by: Ron Pulliam on July 01, 2015, 02:54:26 PM: It's an odd day.

First day of the new Fiscal Year.

I have added money to all our monthly purchase orders.

I have created a contract and requisitioned a purchase order against it for furniture.

Against that same contract, I have requisitioned a purchase order for labor to install the furniture.

Different purchase orders coming out of different departments all because of the cost of the labor. Anything over $25,000 in labor costs has to be approved by our Board of Supervisors and the purchase order must be issued by the Auditor-Controller's office.

Isn't my work simply fascinating?

Put-together is kind of my term (I'm sure others will use it now) - to me, medley is something where more than two songs are involved. I suppose two songs can be a medley, but I just prefer put-together because I always do try to put together songs that belong together either musically or lyrically.

My dad said to moisten some tobacco and place it over the sting. The tobacco would draw out the poison, he said. I don't know if that's entirely what it did, but it was awfully less painful in a few minutes' time.

Pays to have a dad who has chewed tobacco, I guess.

I've never been stung by a wasp, but I got a bee sting on my foot quite a few years ago at a friends house, and after they got the stinger out (evidently, the area had a lot of bees and they had a lot of experience removing stingers), they put some toothpaste on it. I really don't remember if it helped or not, but I think it probably did.

Still, neither owner is willing or able to carry an owner's contract. And the banks and credit unions won't touch it.
