I just learned that a Facebook friend Joey Wilgenbusch, who played Mowgli in JUBILEE this summer for Ohio Light opera, died at the age of 29 in December from heart issues. I had him in mind for one of the Collegians on the recording of ROBERTA. I am very sad over this.

Here's the OLO page in memory of him. There's also a link to the obituary:

There's a wide open shirt on that fellow
There's a wide open shirt on that fellow
I'm turning my head as I watch him jump high
And it seems like Seattle's where I'm gonna fly

Oh what a beautiful cornfield
Oh what a beautiful shot
I got a beautiful inkling
Tickets are gonna be hot

All the cowboys are set for a hoedown
All the cowboys are set for a hoedown
They don't even look as they see me go by
But if I looked like them, honey, neither would I

Oh what a beautiful cornfield
Oh what a beautiful shot
I got a beautiful inkling
Tickets are gonna be hot
Oh what a beautiful shot


























Very funny, FJL!

Welcome home to DR Jane!

Re: the US Dragaon Tattoo movie. BK didn't care for it. But I know others who liked it a lot (including my mom).  I am definitely looking forward to seeing it to see which aspects were like the book and which aspects were different from the Swedish movie.

My friend Paul liked it a lot better than the Swedish version, well, except for the opening credits

Did he read the books?

Speaking of movies....We went to three movies this trip.  Considering I think we have only gone twice since I broke my shoulder this was something.  I found I can sit, at least in a stadium seating theater, through a movie without it hurting. :)  We saw HUGO in a very comfortable theater in Palm Springs. 

The weirdest thing bothers me in movies. My legs. I just have a hard time sitting without them cramping.

I got my Towers of Hanoi game today.  The one I had as a kid had discs with sloped edges, kind of like flying saucers.  The only ones that seem to be available now have 90 degree angle edges.  I hopefully can cope.  :)

The secret to Towers of Hanoi is:  every other one.  :)

Jane, how did the Paul Gauguin compare to the other cruise ships you have been on?

Funny, I opened HHW with just this thought in mind knowing you would want to know.

To begin with the ship, after our cruise, headed to New Zealand to be refurbished.  We doubt as much work that is needed will be done, especially improving the stabilizers on the ship.  Happily our favorite area on the ship was the outside area where smokers were permitted.  The adjoining bar was very nice & also where a beautiful afternoon English tea was served.

The food was excellent, however after a few days the vegetarian selection didn't vary much.  The cookies were exceptionally delicious.

The service was  no better than any other ship.  For 3 nights we had the same grumpy waiter at dinner until we sat in a different section of the dining room.  This cruise is touted as having service beyond the normal cruise & there were several who provided it, beyond that it was nothing special which was disappointing as we expected to be pampered.

More in a few minutes.  I have to wash dishes.

We enjoyed the intimacy with other passengers the smaller cruise provided. 

The day at the little island in Taha was done in style with tons of delicious food and an open bar.  This was an all inclusive cruise & we were impressed with the top quality of the liqueur & wines.

We spoke with other passengers who have been on smaller all inclusive ships & were disappointed with the service.  One gentleman had been on the PG cruise with the previous cruise line that owned it & said he was very disappointed.  The somewhat larger Regata was anchored near us in Bora Bora (in fact their lights were very festive on New Year's Eve while we watched the fireworks over Bora Bora from the ship) while we talked.  He has been on the sister ship & suggested we try a cruise on the Regata.

Apparently, all the theaters are trying to spice up OKLAHOMA a little.


Hmm... I wonder if they'll be doing a "Men of Oklahoma!" too?
