Well, you've read the notes, the notes were dressed and rehearsed for the second time, and now it is time for you to post until the second dressed and rehearsed cows come home.

I'm all too familiar with band/vocal balance challenges in a small venue.  I've learned my hard lessons on this, and now, when I'm the one hiring musicians, I only go for those who are likewise experienced and totally get it.  Inexperienced kids, however talented, are a risk.

I donated my bit of money for Broadway Cares-Bares.  If anyone plans to do that and doesn't have a name to attach to the donation, you might CHECK Adam Chandler.....he has raised about $35,000 over the years.

Very funny man.....of course when I see him in his Broadway Bares costumes or rather LACK of costumes, I always remember when I cast him as Woodstock in SNOOPY!!!

Am participating in a Webinar this a.m. for Office365.

Am part of a beta group.  Everything that Office365 offers is unknown to me.  I know I was "migrated" during the night. We were told we'd never even notice that we'd been migrated.  When I responded to an e-mail this morning letting the administrator know where to find me, his response was: "Oh, good!  Now I know it works because you responded to my e-mail."

Say "Huh?"

I briefly got into one of my library accounts, only on my computer.  By the time I ran and grabbed my tablet it didn't work again.

DR George, once in I was able to stay in until I left on my own.  I deleted a book that came in last night that I don't want.  I still have two books I want to download.

I'll be calling the library soon.

Newsies was good.  Not spectacular like people make it out to be.  While it's a slick production, it doesn't all quite come together for me.  The dancing is great, but is gratuitous at most - didn't really further to story much at all.  But it's a lovely display of talent.  I'm glad I saw it and don't need to see it again.

My bank has a new online banking website that is about 100 times more difficult to use than the previous one......it also has much SMALLER print, and it will no enlarge when I use control/mouse scroll.

It is most annoying.

It is most annoying.

I sympathize. Over and over, I see perfectly fine websites redesigned--MASSIVELY redesigned--and have to ask, "Why would anyone think this is better?!" One real estate website I used to use quite a bit was redesigned and no longer fits on my screen. It was obviously designed and tested on a large monitor and can't be used on my 13" Macbook. Given how many people use laptops, I'd have to call that pretty stupid. The other day I was so annoyed that I said, "You don't know how to design software!" Software testing has always been given short-shrift, but the decline of work ethic and discipline has made it even worse. IMHO. Honestly, much of today's software should never have been released.

I think the main culprit is the laptop on the desk that feeds a widescreen monitor.   Folks don't think about their creations not actually being viewable on the laptop...that's just a useful tool for them.

Tomorrow they will check his prostate. Or, as my sister says, his prostrate.

I responded back: He is prostrate, but they will check his prostate.

😊

Vibes they figure it out tomorrow.

Finished Benjamin Kritzer last night, BK. Enjoyed it very much. We had some childhood parallels, from the brown living room to the desire for a transistor radio to help shut out the noise of those around me.

Got a chance to listen to The Sailor Who Fell from Grace with the Sea. I can't remember if I ever saw the movie, but I do remember reading the book.

The atmospheric moodiness of the music is just wonderful.

What is your favorite casserole?

I love tuna casserole.

It kills me that I lost her recipe.

I think her secret was rather than make a top crust of corn meal, she blended the corn meal into the casserole, and then topped it with lots of cheddar cheese.

I remember the one time that she grabbed the wrong can of olives and made it with the pits still in the olives.
Title: Re: THE SECOND DRESS REHEARSAL
Post by: TCB on May 11, 2016, 09:37:57 PM
The pits stayed hot forever.

My mom was a single parent raising the two kids on a teacher's salary.

Back in the 50's and 60's, teachers salaries in Washington State were not very good.

So, we ate a lot of casseroles.
Title: Re: THE SECOND DRESS REHEARSAL

To this day, I love casseroles.
Title: Re: THE SECOND DRESS REHEARSAL

My sister, on the other hand, hates any and all casseroles for the exact same reason.

Actually, ice cream would taste pretty good, but I don't have any in the house.

He is feeling much better now that they are giving him only one chemo drug at a time.
Title: Re: THE SECOND DRESS REHEARSAL
Post by: TCB on May 11, 2016, 10:06:15 PM
At the end of May, they will give him a PET test to see if the chemo is having any effect on his cancer.

With inflation they still aren't.
