And the word of the day is: RECHAUFFE!
Good morning George
Ask BK
What is your favorite stage farce that you've seen?
Ask BK
Do you think a play like Deathtrap could be successful today with the internet and the social media that all the twists would not bet revealed despite someone saying "Spoiler Alert".
When I saw Deathtrap In NYC I went in knowing nothing about it despite it being a good play and being fooled and thrilled along with the audience and not revealing anything when I was taken to another production of it in Toronto.
And the word of the day is: RECHAUFFE!
In another hour, I shall board a 104 bus and head down to City Center. I look forward to seeing Joshie and looking over the original 1776 scores.

!!!!!! :)
On the way back from City Center, I had a real panic attack over my friend's cancer situation and got all teary and blubbery. I am really frightened for him and his family, so please keep them vibes coming.
Went to usher for Robert Earl Keen's country Christmas show. They sold more beer at this event last year than any other event, so they set up six extra beer bars in the theater lobbies and then took trays of beers into the theater like it was a ballgame. And the people drank and drank and drank.
I only saw a little of the show, but I got to hear all of it. It's not my thing (I didn't know a single song and everybody else was singing along) but I could appreciate the musicianship. It was less Christmas than I thought it would be.
I have a young friend battling cancer who needs a lot of vibes, DRs. Please keep him and your family in your thoughts.

Well, certainly the Internet has ruined any chance of a surprise for anything, spoilers or not. It's quite disgusting and most people who reveal these things happily are jerks - but even the ones who just say "ooh, the twist is great" ruin it because everyone knows a "twist" is coming and once you know that or have that planted in your head you figure it out.
My oncologist gave me her cell phone number encouraging me to keep in touch and should any need arise she will intervene on my behalf.
Helper has come and gone.
Is there a true rhyme for "scrumptious?

That is very nice of her. Congratulations on your very good news.

Just got back from my visit with my wonderful oncologist. It was a mixed visit. The good news is that I am still successfully in remission. But, the bad news for me is that my oncologist is leaving for a position with The Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN. I am happy for her and know that is quite prestigious for her, but I don't think I would be here without her.
Back from a patty melt and a few onion rings. Helper has come and gone.

Yikes! :o Doesn't really sound like a very good listening experience. Everyone else would annoy me too, too much.
The other item of note is that tomorrow December 17 is the anniversary of when I first detected that I had cancer in 2012. Not that it is a celebratory anniversary, but that was the morning I noticed the lump on my neck. I had gone to bed the night before with nothing. I was just getting ready for work. Was not a festive holiday season to say the least. I spent New Year's in ICU.
I've returned from Holy Trinity Catholic Church, which is acrpss from my apartment. I've prayed for my friend and I will go back every afternoon and pray for him.

Just saw your post, George.
Great minds or something like that.

I could use a nap.
It looks like you're having a nice vacation, DR Jane!
I still can't find a charger for my nook. Keith has turned the sound off on his iPad so I do no accidentally wake him while I am reading tonight. One little problem, Siri does not recognize that and if I tap too long to switch to here from my library book I make scary noises,

Can you turn off Siri?
Finished Father Brown Season 3, which saved the best for last.

Keith might look to see if he can, or I will only read and not play on the iPad while he sleeps.

That's how I'd feel, too. John G, you were brave to usher.
My question for today....but NOT my ASK BK question....
If you are directing a musical that opens June 4, and your auditions are April 3 and 4 - why would you choose a pianist who is not available until May 3?
I'm anxious to close the eye surgery chapter of my life. I still don't have driving glasses, but at least the medical side of things seems to be over.
I appreciate all the eye vibes you've all sent. My eyes thank you.
