TOD - I always enjoy the Tonys, but last night's show wasn't the best. Like DR Elmore, I wanted COME FROM AWAY to do better than it did. The food-hawking bit was kind of lame, but it did give some visibility to several shows not otherwise featured. It was a thrill to see our acquaintance Jared as Willie Wonka. He documented the day in Facebook videos and it was fun to watch the process.
Does anyone know what Bette said that got bleeped?

From what I been reading elsewhere Bette said "shit".

Just because.
While I'm definitely interested in Come From Away, I have to wonder what the rest of the songs sound like. The "rock"-(ish?) style of the one shown last night does nothing for me. I do want to see the show, though.
This might be a silly question, but what/where is this auto-correct function that some of you are using?
Is it a feature of this board (HHW) or of your own browser? I'm looking through my account settings here and don't see anything. If I did, I'd have mine turned off anyway, but I find no such thing.
So, wherever it resides... with all the silly mayhem it causes, why do you use it? I've long been curious about this, but I so enjoy its entertaining results here that I hadn't thought about asking in a long while.

DR ChasSmith: It's a function of my computer. It doesn't matter what I'm typing or where I'm typing it. It just kicks in.
Just finished watching. THE LONG LONG TRAILER with Lucy and Desi!!! So sad they broke up because you could really see and feel the love they had for each other!!!

Has anyone ever had a major problem with typing on their computer? I am typing but the letters are coming up long after I have typed. The computer also, I expect to due the lag, locks everything and I can't move the mouse or close anything.

Time for a new computer ;)

This has happened to me on my work computer. I start typing and nothing comes up. In 10 seconds, or so, all the letters I had typed appear on the screen. It's very disconcerting, aggravating and annoying.
Don't know why this happens.
A technician once tried to tell me I type too fast. Bah! Nonsense. It never was a problem on a typewriter.
Yes, if Mr. Sherman is visiting these pages, I wish him a very happy birthday, as well!
I was sitting with my sister enjoying my week without appointments when I got a call - I thought it was THE call, but instead it was the doctor's office asking me to come in tomorrow instead of next Tuesday....but of course I was supposed to have labs done the day before the original appt.
I called her back and asked if I should have those labs done today....and she said yes. SO MUCH FOR NO APPTS. this week.
Of course this is the doctor who said he would call last week about the chemo/radiation controversy, so maybe I will hear something tomorrow.
For all I know, every one of the shows from last night might be brilliant - point being you wouldn't really know that from what was presented.
TOD:
Least favorite: Kevin Spacey - he didn't HOST anything, he was an interloper in the proceedings.
Cynthia Nixon and her "comments."
Favorite: I enjoyed hearing from the playwrights, although I didn't particularly care for any of the plays..... Gavin Creel's acceptance speech and the BANDSTAND performance, although I do have some of the same reservations that MR BK wrote about in the notes.
So much of the choreography (except THE GREAT COMET) was aimless walking around in strange patterns until everyone ends up in a straight line....WTH is that?

I am extremely grateful I do not have it on my computer, though at least here it would be easier to see and catch the errors. There simply isn't any logic or consistency to most of them.
And a very happy eighty-ninth birthday to Richard Sherman.

Autocorrect is not on any of my desktop computers, but I had to turn it off on my devices (tablets, phone). It was just too annoying. It seemed like I was correcting the autocorrect "corrections" more than my own typos!
Happiest of birthdays to Mr Richard Sherman!
Truth is truth.
Well I guess it's nice to know WHERE it's happening.

Is that all? ::)
DR Jane! Yes I have also had that problem with the delayed response while typing now and then!!!

That's happened to me before, but it's always only been a temporary situation. If I waited or came back later, it was always fixed.
I guess I shouldn't carp about Cynthia Nixon's speech - she was just quoting Lillian Hellman......
Truth is truth.

DR JANE indeed the line was from THE LITTLE FOXES.
Sometimes my keyboard doesn't put the letters I type on the screen....it's like some kind of code.
I have to shut down my computer and start again.
'night.

That was what Keith kept telling me until he saw how bad the problem really was.
I got an offer to write another book today, another one on San Antonio restaurants and food stores, etc. It's like what I've already written, but in a different format. It's appealing -- and not.
Still, it's always nice being asked.
