Has anyone ever ordered anything from Goldbely?  They ship from amazing places, foods of all kinds, including some classic restaurants like Langer's.  I was rather shocked by the prices, but I'm just curious if anyone's actually done it?

I sat for a while  and then gingerly stood back up and my leg supported my weight again. But I have had a dull ache in that knee ever since with occasional sharp stabbing pains

I slept late.  Around 5:00am I was attacked by constant pains in my left leg.  I'm so dense that I did nothing and maybe an Advil would have helped.  I mostly dozed, but I had some weird dreams, one with BK  playing Rose and singing the score of Gypsy in some sort of reading; one about frying eggs;  and at least one more that is now too vague, but there were sparkly costumes in it.

There's been no word from Troy since the heated exchanges yesterday morning over the lateness of this new key transposition.  This could have been decided two weeks ago or I could have been told to hold off on that one for the nonce.

Joshie stopped by yesterday to bring me some blank score paper/  We looked over my orchestration and decided the key change really affected both the sound and the instrument ranges.  So, I have to begin from scratch.

Has anybody been watching the AMERICAN RIPPER series on The History Channel?

They're trying to prove that American serial killer H.H. Holmes and Jack the Ripper were the same person.

It seems to me that, if they were able to prove it, we would have heard about that by now.

But, it's an interesting show.

Nope.  I asked him how he addressed that decision when planning the production.  As open as he would normally be to it in other situations, it wouldn't have been right for the venue and for the people involved when the cast included not only the director's 17-year-old daughter but a few other young people in the community they've known all their lives.  They did a thing which referred to this being "the time for the nude scene, but here are a few actual obscene things to look at instead", and worked in some iconic Vietnam War photos.  It worked perfectly.  They also had gotten a few weird calls when the show was announced, asking whether there would be nudity, the tone of which had led him to believe they could be harbingers of -- not necessarily trouble or disruption -- but of prurient interest on the part of a group of people.  This venue is really out there in the country, and while they are normally no holds barred artistically, this was a line not to cross.

Excellent.  The prurient interest has always been there.  In all the original productions and tours - one of my bosses at the Miami University Library had a niece in the first national tour - the sound of binoculars was quite audible at the end of act one.

Of course, I did my parody lyric based on the reviews to tune of "Blowin' In the Wind" in the comments under the NY Times review.

I've only been in the Dallas region and have experienced a few high-90s days there which were definitely a bit of a challenge but not the worst thing I've ever known  I've always imagined Houston to be pretty bad.  I also imagine the western regions (Marfa) to be more desert-like, and Lubbock-Amarillo somewhere in between?  I have, of course, no idea what I'm talking about.

Hey guys - once again, my errant and truant-ness abounds, but something always brings me back here. 

I'll need some excellent vibes and xylophones..... and maybe a marimba as well....

My oldest and best friend, Judy, has been been dealing with Achalasia (http://www.healthline.com/health/achalasia) and recently had surgery.  The surgery was long overdue and was a bit complicated, but she made it through and was on her way to recovery.  However, between the malnutrition (from not being able to keep food/liquids down for months) and the anesthesia from the surgery, her memory has not been great = but it's getting better, I'm told.   Anyhow - last night, she ended up in the ER with a high fever which has turned out to be pneumonia. 

Judy is 75, we've known each other for almost 30 years, she's been my right hand man at church (2 parishes now) for almost that long, we've travelled, hiked, spent endless evenings just talking, etc... truly a best friend.  I was very positive that she would pull through the Achalasia issue, but now with the pneumonia, I've went into worry mode.

Everything else is fine.  DD's are fine, etc.    Love you all.

I am almost finished with my NYMF work, about two hours at most to go, so I sent the composer a request for the song transposed to the new key.  It's in my hands now, so everything's covered.  Much as I'd like a day off before the hell of a long day on Monday (9:00am-Lord knows when), we must do what we can.

Also I've been dealing with a couple of crazy clients at work who seemingly believe that national banks can suspend federal lending and underwriting requirements in their cases because they find them inconvenient

That has to be better than the national catastrophe of a president who believes the Attorney General is supposed to serve him alone.  And then there's the matter of federal judges whom the president feels should not have any power to overturn his brain farts.

That darned Constitution keeps getting in his way and on his nerves.

I think it depends on the section of Texas you're in, but we've been humid lately.

I've only been in the Dallas region and have experienced a few high-90s days there which were definitely a bit of a challenge but not the worst thing I've ever known  I've always imagined Houston to be pretty bad.  I also imagine the western regions (Marfa) to be more desert-like, and Lubbock-Amarillo somewhere in between?  I have, of course, no idea what I'm talking about.

Galveston and Houston are the worst. East is swamp, west is desert. You're fairly accurate.

Hey guys - once again, my errant and truant-ness abounds, but something always brings me back here. 

I'll need some excellent vibes and xylophones..... and maybe a marimba as well....

My oldest and best friend, Judy, has been been dealing with Achalasia (http://www.healthline.com/health/achalasia) and recently had surgery.  The surgery was long overdue and was a bit complicated, but she made it through and was on her way to recovery.  However, between the malnutrition (from not being able to keep food/liquids down for months) and the anesthesia from the surgery, her memory has not been great = but it's getting better, I'm told.   Anyhow - last night, she ended up in the ER with a high fever which has turned out to be pneumonia. 

Judy is 75, we've known each other for almost 30 years, she's been my right hand man at church (2 parishes now) for almost that long, we've travelled, hiked, spent endless evenings just talking, etc... truly a best friend.  I was very positive that she would pull through the Achalasia issue, but now with the pneumonia, I've went into worry mode.

Everything else is fine.  DD's are fine, etc.    Love you all.

~~~Vibes of All Kinds for Matthew's Oldest and Best Friend Judy!!~~~

Have you all been following this Mandy Patinkin thing?  It's hilariously not hilarious.  What a world.  The producers of The Great Comet, being who they are, decided to bring in Mandy Patinkin to boost the box-office for three weeks.  Crass, if you ask me.  Well, the actor currently playing the role probably wasn't too happy about it, if you read between the lines of what he posted, and he said he would not be returning to the show after Mr. Patinkin leaves.  But since that actor is what the politically correct idiots call a POC (person of color), naturally other POC actors cited their outrage all over everywhere.  Meantime, Mr. Patinkin had no idea they'd asked the other actor to leave for Mr. Patinkin's three weeks or that that might be upsetting to the actor, and for THAT reason he dropped out today.  Everyone is, of course, continuing their moral outrage about the racial aspect of replacing a POC with a POAC (person of another color, white, you know, being a color and all), only these people are such morons that they don't understand that a POAC (read WHITE) created the role on Broadway - Josh Groban.  In fact, the producers should their diversity by replacing him with a POC when they did not have to.  In fact, the role has never been played by a POC until the actor who's doing it now was cast.  So, I label all these idiots POS, if you get my meaning.  And when did "optics" become the word of this year?

The show is a great show.  The mistake was to cast Josh Groban (big name) in the show to begin with.  The show is fine without a star. So, they are shooting themselves in the foot when it comes to casting "Pierre" after Josh Groban left as it's been deemed a "Star" role (which it really isn't) and have opened themselves up for trouble when they try and put someone in who isn't of "Star quality"   If they didn't cast Josh Groban, they wouldn't have this issue.

Right now I'm hungry, and could be made very happy with some poor people's food.

I'm eating poor people's food right now, boxed angel hair pasta and (avert your eyes John G) meat sauce from a jar

Despite the buyers best attempts to sabatoge his closing while blaming everyone else for delaying things we actually closed hisloan only 3 hours late.  Any other bank and bank attorney would have invited him to take a long walk off a short pier .

Instead of being grateful he roundly criticized us all and congratulated himself for perserving  and "forcing you to do your jobs"

Finished with my viewing.  Made the penne bolognese, cooked to their instructions.  It wasn't right, so I cooked it for an additional time - there was something off about it so I trashed it and am making the chicken risotto.  That means I'll only have one thing for tomorrow, but I'm fine with that.

Hey guys - once again, my errant and truant-ness abounds, but something always brings me back here. 

I'll need some excellent vibes and xylophones..... and maybe a marimba as well....

My oldest and best friend, Judy, has been been dealing with Achalasia (http://www.healthline.com/health/achalasia) and recently had surgery.  The surgery was long overdue and was a bit complicated, but she made it through and was on her way to recovery.  However, between the malnutrition (from not being able to keep food/liquids down for months) and the anesthesia from the surgery, her memory has not been great = but it's getting better, I'm told.   Anyhow - last night, she ended up in the ER with a high fever which has turned out to be pneumonia. 

Judy is 75, we've known each other for almost 30 years, she's been my right hand man at church (2 parishes now) for almost that long, we've travelled, hiked, spent endless evenings just talking, etc... truly a best friend.  I was very positive that she would pull through the Achalasia issue, but now with the pneumonia, I've went into worry mode.

Everything else is fine.  DD's are fine, etc.    Love you all. 

It is always nice to have you back.  Wishing Judy a full recovery!
