Doozy of a dream here, too.  One of those that I sort of woke up from in the middle of the night but was still kind of in it.  Oh, who knows.  But it was a doozy, and was apparently so tiring that I still need sleep.
Title: Re: DOUBLE DUTY DIRECTING
Post by: ChasSmith on May 24, 2017, 04:47:45 AM
Which I'm not going to get.  Because I'm up to get a few things done, then I'm heading into the city to see The Fantasticks.  That will be highly enjoyable.

The reason I'm relieved is that I'd come to the conclusion this small theater didn't have the space and resources for portraying the score properly, and I'm happy not to spend my time and energy on a compromised one.

It's nice to know they got all the cancer, Jack.  I think the chemo is the best plan to prevent further outbreaks until they are sure it won't recur.  Hang in there.

Cool!  Garrison Keillor was here in Olympia last month and it was a great evening.  He stood on the stage for a about two and a half hours and just spoke and told stories and sang and everyone loved it!

Actually, Catherine, he did.  The Benjamin Kritzer books are fictionalized accounts of BK's life growing up, but he continued the stories in his two autobiographies, There's Mel, There's Woody, and There's You (http://www.kritzerland.com/melwoodu.htm) and Album Produced By... (http://www.kritzerland.com/albumProducedBy.htm).  If you want to know what happened to Benjamin, read those. :)

DR TCB--to answer your question from yesterday.  I don't think Barbra will be doing any more concerts in the near future.  She said in a recent interview that the two concerts in NY would be the end of her current tour and wouldn't be touring again, though she would do something once in a while (I'm thinking fundraisers).    I hope she changes her mind!

Yes, however the brand he purchased named it SimbuActin.  Well, it is my sinuses that are mostly bothering me and I believe it is allergy related. 

I should have said our allergies are worse as we are not suffering with them like DRs Ginny, John, and I can't recall who else is truly suffering.  We aren't happy though ;)

DR Jeanne & Bruce, Keith picked up some SimbuActin today.  I hope it helps.  Our allergies are bad again since returning home.

Jane, do you mean Sambucol? I don't know if it'll work for allergies, but it sure helps my sinuses and it's great for colds and flu. Sorry your allergies are bothering you. Airplanes do expose you to a lot of bad air.

Vibes you both feel better soon.

Yes, however the brand he purchased named it SimbuActin.  Well, it is my sinuses that are mostly bothering me and I believe it is allergy related. 

I should have said our allergies are worse as we are not suffering with them like DRs Ginny, John, and I can't recall who else is truly suffering.  We aren't happy though ;)

Ah, SambuActin is an herbal form of elderberry. The Amazon reviews were quite impressive. Hope it works for you, too.

I just watched the first episode of a British series called QUIRKE. It was quite good. It's an adaptation of the Benjamin Black novel, CHRISTINE FALLS.

Back from NYC and The Fantasticks, which was just what the doctor ordered.  A total delight.

I liked the two or three Black novels I read. I look forward to that one.

Thanks the DR CATHERINE, DR ELMORE, DR JOHN G, DR CHAS SMITH and all other Dear Readers for their vibes.

DR VIXMOM of course I would be pleased to be on the prayer list, just check with the Missouri Synod.

LOL. We're ELCA so if you don't mind having a woman Pastor praying on your behalf.... :)

I'm the Missouri Synod Lutheran.

There's also an apple gate commercial that just ran where a half naked ( but well built ) man dressed as a cow with a German accent and lovely blue eyes is standing behind the deli counter  and having a nonconversation with a shopper ,  then he flexes his pecs

Garrison Keillor's show was one for the ages. He was supposed to perform for 90 minutes, then do a meet-and-greet. Instead, he was on for 2.5 hours and despite being 74, he didn't seem tired. He gave what he called a standing intermission. He made everyone stand up and led a song-along. It was supposed to be for 10 minutes, while those who needed to could go to the restroom,but it lasted a half hour because he fell in love with the acoustics of the place. We sang everything from Battle Hymn of the Republic to How Great Thou Art to Silent Night to Red River Valley.
 
Apparently his grandson died this week. I think the performance was therapy for him.

I would have loved to see that show.  The closest I have come I seeing him on the subway once, he got on as I got off and it want until after the doors closed and I turned around to,look I realized who it was

I am sure!  We have a series of Lake Woebegone stories ( they are on cassette tape so you can imagine how long we've had them )

One if the best stories is The 24 Lutheran ministers on Wally's pontoon boat

I challenge anyone to hear it without falling into spasms of laughter

Sounds almost exactly what he did here in Olympia...and his "intermission" was about a half hour, also. :D
