Sondheim's lyric book

Ditto...although, I've mainly just been skimming through it...not really "reading" it.

250 aftershocks over 5.0 and 50 aftershocks over 6.0  Wow.

I haven't read the number of aftershocks.  Did the article mention what is normal? I remember loads of aftershocks following the last big quake I was in.  6.0 seems high.

I certainly would think so!  You read about earthquakes being 6.0 and doing damage...not the aftershocks! :o

And speaking of a cappella, tonight I'll be ushering for Harmony Sweepstakes A Cappella Festival!

Quote
MCE again hosts the Northwest’s annual a cappella spectacular, always a rousing and resounding audience favorite. Get ready for a musical showdown, as the quintessential a cappella talent of the region square off to sing sparkling vocal arrangements and silken harmonies, set off by some nifty footwork. The winner goes on to compete in the National Harmony Sweepstakes final. Special guest artists, 2010 1st place Northwest champions and 2nd place National champions, Realtime, return to host....

There's gonna be some great singing tonight! ;D

And now, I must be off.  I have to take a shower, get dressed (assuming that I can find my black pants!) and then leave for the theater.

Have a good day, all!

Well, the second batch of flan, an orange and tequila variation, went together quickly because I was used to the whole procedure. Not so bad after all. I hope they taste as good as they look.

I think they said the biggest aftershock has been 7.2 - maybe that was a before. 
Here's a PBS site that has the seismic data about what's going on.

For Atlas Shrugged fans...here's some merchandise you can buy. http://www.proudproducers.com/

If you click on "sale" there are a number of items that are pretty reasonable

I have started the great clock resetting in our household and have no idea if my alarm will go off at the right time tomorrow morning.  I think my clock radio resets automatically, but who knows?

Set your cell phone alarm, Ginny. It will automatically reset itself.

It has been awhile since I read the book.  I had not opened the link since I figured I wouldn't be getting anything.  I also forgot the Taggart, which by the way I think is cool with the train.

Oh Ginny, tomorrow is going to come too soon for you.  I have transferred by satellite clock into Craig's room but I still need to reset the clock in there.

Craig called and was very pleased to hear Yogi seems calm and is not crying or whimpering.  Time to let Kitty out of the spa ;)
