Last post before George!
Earlier this year, following a request from a Facebook friend, I helped a British high school boy with his composition and orchestration. Tonight I am meeting my Facebook friend and his son the composer, who graduated with honors, for dinner before they see On The Town. The trip to New York was a graduation gift.
My adopted son Joshie is back from his jaunt to Vienna, Budapest, and Prague, and I may see a play, The Weir, at the Irish Rep with him tomorrow. Otherwise, I will spend my weekend working on the small orchestration job I have for an October 20 recording.

Lovelier still!
Nice to have a job, no matter how small.
Good morning, Sir Elmore!
Speaking of SW Ohio (which I wasn't, but DR Ginny was), I'll be making a quick visit there around September 14-17. I wish I could manage to be there when DR Elmore's there -- which probably isn't doable, because what a nice get-together that could be. Can you just imagine, say, a tour of Middletown given by both DRs Ginny and Elmore? (Preferably with a documentary filmmaker along...)

Good joke, DR George!
The fee will purchase a new Mac, and that makes me very happy.

Hope you enjoy that as well! I saw a production of "The Weir" in Tacoma, directed by my friend Pug, who's the artistic director of Theater Artists Olympia. It was a very good production.
DR John G. - do you find it difficult to use your CPAP mask when your allergies are at their worst?
For your viewing pleasure -- a series of unrelated but stunning (very related, if you share the longing for the civilization of the early 1960s that I do) professional b&w photos of NYC back in the day:

Someone posted this link on the Home Theater Forum in a thread about SPARTACUS, which is why it opens to that shot. There's a LOT more there.

Nice to have a job and some income. I figure it will essentially cover the costs of the Ohio trip: cars to and from LaGuardia, expenses in Ohio, and possibly a new suit.
DR John G. - do you find it difficult to use your CPAP mask when your allergies are at their worst?
I find it impossible. Even with the Benedryl, sometimes my nostrils won't open enough for the air pressure to work. And I have a BiPap, which supposedly adjusts to your breathing abilities.

Are you doing the version with "Something Broke," ChasSmith?
This is for DR Jeanne:

I sympathize with DR John G. on his benedryl. My season fall allergies have kicked in with a vengeance this past week. My nose runneth, and I feel like scratching my eyes and throat out.

John (and anyone else), have you heard about this Indiegogo campaign?:
Airing: the first hoseless, maskless, micro-CPAP (https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/airing-the-first-hoseless-maskless-micro-cpap#/story).
The campaign is finished, but I'm sure that it's just the beginning for this product.

Hello from the retreat center. Festivities don't start until dinner at 6:00pm - then, we have a two-hour choir rehearsal. It is situated beautifully beside a small lake and also the very scenic St. Croix river, which separates Minnesota from Wisconsin.
And it gives you a sex change at the same time?
It was 90 degrees here today. Ugh! When I came home the apartment was 87 degrees. I have the AC on high AND the portable fan, and after two hours it's now 86. Tomorrow is forecast to be somewhat cooler. I hope so!
Re the Annette house, I don't like to see this happen, either. The blame, I feel, goes to the zoning boards, who approve massive changes to existing neighborhoods. A remodel is one thing, but I prefer to see renovation over total destruction. Even then, I feel that the exterior should be in keeping with the styles and scale of the neighborhood.

Lordy. I had an apartment with an AC unit that did about that much good for me. Said unit should have been taken out back and shot. I would say your apartment needs a new AC, DR Jeanne.
Are you on the top floor of your building? That doesn't help any, but a fully functioning AC of sufficient power should be able to counteract it just fine.
The device looks interesting, DR George. But it might not work for someone who sleeps with their mouth open - that is why I need a mask that covers both my nose and my mouth.

Butterscotch pudding at lunch today. An indulgence that was too wonderful.

I wish this storm had a male name.
That way it would never get passed the Virgin Islands.

Wow! What a difference!
DR SINGDAW how's your horse?
Well, I must be off. Some theater friends of mine bought a new (to them) house last year and it has a barn on the property. Michael (the husband) borrowed a projector from his work and they've been showing movies on the side of their barn after dark.

I'll make this one short and sweet:
The time I lost my wallet while out of town several years ago, I was with several friends who would be driving back home along with me.
Earlier that day we had ransacked just about all of Lake George looking for it, then finally had to give up and drive back to Danbury.
After I'd finished notifying the bank and credit card companies that the cards were to be declared lost or stolen, I was still sitting at my desk, dazed, when my friend came in and sheepishly handed me the wallet. "Ummm.....is this the one we've been looking for?"
He'd accidentally picked it up and put it into his bags thinking it was one of his other items, and in all the retracing of steps and looking through things, he never dreamed of checking that part of his luggage.

My apartment is on the second floor and has a west-facing window in the kitchen. The AC unit is only a few years old. It's a 110 window unit--not central air. It puts out cool air, but only for a few feet in front of it. I usually place the portable fan a few feet away, to try to blow the cool air over to the sofa. Lately, I've changed strategies and place the fan so that it blows right on me. I prefer being on the second floor, but my next digs will probably need to be ground floor. That will at least mean cooler temps inside.
I discovered later today that if he had asked Discover would have frozen his card and he could have just unfrozen it when it was found- but i once it is requested to be cancelled it cannot be uncancelled
