Well, you've read the notes, the notes were anything but clewless, and now it is time for you to post until the clewless cows come home - they're currently trying to get out of the maelstrom and the vortex, not necessarily in that order.

This was posted on a website HERE.  The lyrics for the entire scene was posted, but I'm only quoting the first part because that's all I need for the Topic of the Day. ;)

*Scene 5 – Kate's Apartment

Kate Monster: (out, to the audience) Finally! I get to teach a whole lesson all by myself! And I'm gonna teach something relevant, something modern – the Internet! (sings) THE INTERNET IS REALLY, REALLY GREAT.

Trekkie Monster: (appearing briefly) FOR PORN!

Kate Monster: I GOT A FAST CONNECTION SO I DON'T HAVE TO WAIT.

Trekkie Monster: (appearing again) FOR PORN!

Kate Monster: THERE'S ALWAYS SOME NEW SITE.

Trekkie Monster: FOR PORN!

Kate Monster: I BROWSE ALL DAY AND NIGHT

Trekkie Monster: FOR PORN!

Kate Monster: IT'S LIKE I'M SURFING AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT.

Trekkie Monster: FOR PORN!

Kate Monster: Trekkie!....

And then it goes on from there. ;D

But seriously, folks...the Internet has changed the world, in good ways and bad.  The good, of course, are all here at HHW!  Also good, I met my ex-boyfriend (and still very dear friend) over the Internet. :)

Good morning, all!  My, it's been such an interesting 24 hours and not much of what I had planned it to be.  I got to Toyland to learn the project was to be terminated on Dec 31.  Then, last night, around 6:30 pm EST, I had a long conversation with the head of the institute funding the project and I think the project will continue through publication of several scores.  This led to my spending several hours processing all this information and communicating with various people on the project.  I finally dragged myself into bed, sorted 10 days' worth of mail and passed out.

Today, I shall attend a memorial service for the late great actor Barnard Hughes, of the films MIDNIGHT COWBOY, DA, and THE LOST BOYS, the tv series BLOSSOM, and many other things.  I met Barney when I tried to convince him to play the Toymaker for the Houston Grand Opera in 1991.  I had known his wife Helen since she appeared in THE FIFTH OF JULY, and they were both wonderful people.  After his heart surgery, I'd occasionally see Barney on his daily walk up and down Broadway - I'm at 82nd and he and Helen were at 95th, I believe.  The last time I saw him was backstage at WAITING IN THE WINGS, in which he and Helen both appeared.  I was very fond of him and I miss him a lot.  

I look forward to seeing Helen, with whom I last spoke a little over a year ago.  I hope she is well.  She and Barney did a wonderful HOMICIDE episode together and I have to buy the season in which they appeared.

TOD:  I hate the fact that my imbecilities and pronouncements are committed forever to the aether. Sometimes one should mince words.  But I forget.

Tuesday morning greetings!  Day 4 of 5-in-a-row found me up early to take my car in for routine service.  Now I'm at home puttering.  I don't want to go back to work.

I am in no way related to Woody Allen.

I don't even look like Woody Allen.  I'm taller, and have better looking hair, and a moustache and beard.  Woody Allen doesn't have a moustache or a beard, and would look silly with either.

The only thing that Woody Allen has that I don't have is Soon-Yi, and I've got him trumped there because I've got der Brucer!  Who also has a beard and moustache, which would look incredably silly on her!

So there!

With a strawberry blonde...
And he'll let you waltz with her, too,
For a hundred dollars or so (negotiable)
Since the entire dance is their MERETRICIOUS way of getting your attention!!!

TOD - The Internet has made significant impact on my professional life.  Sometimes I wonder how we librarians did reference work without it, but I also lament the fact that it has raised the layperson's expectations unrealistically.  We have seen a decline in what we call the "ready reference" type of question as more and more people are Googling and getting what may or may not be a credible answer.  We get many calls at the library that start out, "I've been on the Internet for hours trying to find out [this or that].  Can you help me?"  We often find the answer in about 10 seconds in, of all things, a book.  Sometimes it's actually faster to use an almanac or encyclopedia.

For myself, I love the connectedness of boards like this, email, blogs, etc.  And, especially at this time of year, I do love online shopping.  That's probably a natural evolution from my love of catalog shopping.  Not that I don't like being in stores and malls, but when I have specific things to purchase I like ordering and having them delivered.  I prefer my in-person shopping to be more leisurely and serendipitous.

TOD:
I would hate to be without the Internet, but I do feel that technology is at least partly responsible for the degradation in human relations. I think people get used to talking to the computer and forget how to relate in a kind and responsible manner when they do talk to humans. There's far less thoughtfulness and concern expressed, whether it's a sincere "How are you?" or just taking a moment to say hello and chat a bit. Friends who live in the South tell me that people there still take time to chat and be friendly, but said friends are also retired and live among less-stressed neighbors. I'd be interested in other what other H/Ks have to say about this. I suspect it is partly regional.

Der Brucer has just reminded me that it is time for me to go forth and earn money.

Why he simply hasn't installed a printing press in the basement, I am totally clewless.  That's what all our friends have done.
