Happy Birthday to DH RICHARD.

A Pretty Girl Is Like a Melody
Always
Blue Skies

All of which, recorded on 78s, got lots of play when I was a lad.

(My mother did a ballet dance to the first one for school talent shows - in those days, the parents put on the shows for the kids.)

I don't know why, but I always want to say [or sing] that word a la Jean Hagen as Lina Lamont.

Which can be a problem when you're performing Haydn's The Creation. $:-\$

HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY,
DH Richard!!!!!

Yes, indeedy it is the birthday of my DH Richard. Thanks to DRs Singdaw and JRand for the wishes. Because Richard is still recovering from his cold, we'll have a quiet celebration.

Richard's birthday also means that:

2 weeks from today is my mother's birthday (#90, on Thanksgiving Day),
2 weeks from that is my birthday, and
2 weeks from that is CHRISTMAS!!!

Wait a minute! You mean there's only 6 weeks until Christmas?!?

Good morning, all! I have a walk about 10:30 am to the Lincoln Center NYPL, followed by physical therapy. After that, it's back to the church job, which I want to finish by the weekend, and Act one (still!) of THE MOST HAPPY FELLA.

This morning I ordered 20 storage cartons to continue packing up the next shipment of materials to Ohio, I sent DR Ginny's DH Richard birthday felicitations on his Facebook page, and now I'm exhausted.

Re last night's nativity discussion, I was a shepherd in Sunday school around the age of 6, and Ginny's DH Richard and I were two of the magi in a 1973 production of John Arden's wonderful Christmas play THE BUSINESS OF GOOD GOVERNMENT. Herod's dilemma is that it's the business of good government to insure peace on earth, but it seems an impossible task, what with claims of a new king being born to confiscate your throne.

So, to Irving Berlin:
It's A Lovely Day Tomorrow
You Can't Get A Man With A Gun and every song in ANNIE GET YOUR GUN
Face the Music and Dance
White Christmas
Easter Parade
