Got my gas bill for the month - wow! I knew it had been cold, but wow! wow! wow! (My furnace is the only gas operated device in my home.)

Yesterday the roads in Atlanta were still treacherous but I had to send out a cut to our director, so I hiked a mile with my new computer backpack to the subway and took it downtown and walked to Turner so I could use their computer line. (20 minutes vs. 10 hours!) It's not any faster than driving there but I think I might do this more often on nice days.

Yes, indeed, Happy Valentine's Day to one and all. I'll root around the house to see if I can find some chocolate to celebrate the day. I'm not sure there is any here. I guess I could always whip up a pan of brownies.

And now I'm going to tidy up some computer desktop necessities, and then head down to start viewing.

I forgot to mention that today is also the first anniversary of John McGlinn's death. It's quite ironic that I'm off to Amherst since I may be the first person to look at the Kern materials since John did in 1984 or 1985 for his Carnege Recital Hall performances of OH BOY! and OH, LADY! LADY!

So, I'm closing down the computer and I'll be with you all on Tuesday.

This should give Fred a chuckle:

At the end of the tax year, the IRS office sent an inspector to audit the books of a local hospital.  While the IRS agent was checking the books he turned to the CFO of the hospital and said, "I notice you buy a lot of bandages. What do you do with the end of the roll when there's too little left to be of any use?"

 "Good question," noted the CFO. "We save them up and send them back to  the bandage company and every now and then they send us a free box of bandages."

 "Oh," replied the auditor, somewhat disappointed that his unusual question had a practical answer. But on he went, in his obnoxious way.

 "What about all these plaster purchases?  What do you do with what's  left over after setting a cast on a patient?"

 "Ah, yes," replied the CFO, realizing that the inspector was trying to trap him with an unanswerable question.  "We save it and send it back to the manufacturer, and every now and then they send us a free package of plaster."

 "I see," replied the auditor, thinking hard about how he could fluster the know-it-all CFO.  "Well," he went on, "What do you do with all the leftover foreskins from the circumcisions you perform?"

 "Here, too, we do not waste," answered the CFO. "What we do is save all  the little foreskins and send them to the IRS Office… and about once a year they send us a complete dick."

Oh...

And last night I attended a performance of The Enchanted Pig, a Fairytale Opera at the New Victory Theater. What a fun, imaginative and energetic(!) children's opera - which is really meant for all ages.

*And if I could move into the New Victory Theater I would. What a great theater and space! And some of the best ushers in New York City too! They really know how to take care of the children who attend the performances - and their parents too.

Oh...

And on Friday night, I attended a dance concert(?) at the Baruch College Peforming Arts Center...

The collection of Edward Steichen photographs in the lower lobby was amazing! Marlene Dietrich, Greta Garbo, Lunt & Fontanne, Noel Coward, etc... Some truly stunning black and white portraits.

BELLE OF AMHERST is, by coinky-dink, our Rave in the Nave performance this month (that's the performing arts series I host and organize).  Portland actress Jane Fellows has been doing this for years and has attracted quite a following.  She had several seasons of SRO runs at Mt. Hood Rep doing the play.

Today I am going to the winter carnival in my area. There will be horse drawn carriage rides, sled-riding, toffee on the snow (my fav), big blow up thingies for kids to jump in!


What the heck is toffee on the snow?
