Last night we watched the PBS broadcast from 1985 of the Arena Stage production of the Kurt Weill melodrama Happy End, in an English adaptation by my late friend Michael Feingold. The leading lady was my friend Marilyn Caskey. I saw the original 1985 PBS broadcast, but I hadn't seen it again until last night. It's 1917 Salvation Army-Chicago gangsters plot is much darker than Guys & Dolls, and its score closer to The Threepenny Opera than a Broadway musical, but the director Garland Wright's visual approach is silent film, with heavy eye makeup and completely un-PC racial stereotypes. The plot is rather flimsy, but the score - with the exuberant "Mandalay Song," the nostalgiac "BilbaoSong," and the haunting "Surabaya Johnny" - is nicely presented.

i actually like the film of Sweeney Todd quite a bit. It may not be the film I would have made, but Steve had told me  how much he wanted to evoke Hammer Films as well as Hangover Square and Bernard Herrmann's piano concerto in the film. I think the film works quite well.

Boxing Day to Canadians is their Black Friday (although they now partake in US version of that as well). It’s odd to me to go shopping the day after Christmas. No way.

In Pennsylvania there was a wonderful store with a little pharmacy in the back and a beauitufl gift shop in the rest of the store.  It is where I purchased my Christmas cards and many decorations.

The year my friend said she was picking me up early on the 26th to be at the store when they opened I balked.  She insisted.  Everything Christmas was basically half off.  Because we had our children with us they waited in the very long check-out line while we shopped.  We knew the shop well, and were able to quickly find the items we wanted.

Two years in a row I was able to buy beautiful Christmas cards and save them until Christmas.  I still have the beautiful angel tree topper I purchased, though sadly it is packed away where I can't get to it.

The kids actually had fun waiting in line since they were a group.

Should I go for dim sum at Yan’s Garden in British Columbia? It’s owned and operated by Yan of PBS’s “Yan Can Cook” fame. Would have to convince the family.

I met him years ago when he came to San Antonio. He was more interested in places to continue drinking than anything else.

Ron Pulliam, with whom I once shared dim sum in Oakland, is a good person to ask.

Absolutely you should go for dim sum.  If I lived any closer to you, I'd stop by and pick you up on my way over there.


And the fun we’d have! Unfortunately I’m saddled with two very unadventurous eaters, my kids.

They won’t like the chicken feet. I can almost guarantee that.

Today, about to take our turn at a four way stop, the car to our right did a stop/roll and kept going.  Once the jerk was through we went.  That was when I noticed the SUV behind the guy who rolled through the stop sign ahead of us had big letters on the side of his car.

P O L I C E

Yet, the police car did not go after the rolling, out of turn, guy.  It seems to me it should have been a double ticket.
