Maybe NINE did win DR FJL. I was just repeating something someone said.....

Yes, you are correct NINE won the Best Musical Tony Award in 1982......

Did anybody here watch the 4 X 100 men's relay race yesterday?

I was watching with my niece and she was super excited. Obviously Jamaica and US were going to win the gold and silver (unless they dropped the baton or got DQed). But it was still very exciting for the Canadian team to have a chance for 3rd.

Anyhow the Canadian team did finish 3rd and my niece was jumping up and down. And they took out the Canadian flags and it was very exciting. We've only won 1 gold at these Olympics. But in this case winning a bronze was really like winning a gold.

They put up the official results and then about 10 minutes later they put up on the board that Canada was DQed.

My niece was inconsolable saying "i don't want to be disqualified". She was basically in tears. It's hard to explain to a 6 year old how these things work. My biggest problem with it is don't put the results up until it's official. That's how it's usually done if anything is questionable.

It was such a big disappointment and very upsetting, especially because my niece was so upset. What an amazing result it would have been.

It's time like that which make me wonder if people are too wrapped up in feeling the accomplishments of people who HAPPEN to be from their countries actually represent their countries as opposed to being individual accomplishments.

I certainly never feel when an American individual does something terrible or criminal that he or she represents Americans as a group. I don't quite understand why the opposite should be the case, why an individual's accomplishment should be attributed to his country. but it seems to be the way the world wants to see it.

Is it at all possible that it gets repeated because apparently God had wanted DREAMGIRLS to win, according to an earlier post, and nothing can really change that? I wonder if ultimately the space and time continuum will have been adjusted to reflect that retroactive shift, so powerful is the force of Michael Bennett and Jennifer Holliday.

I've had my nap and I'm lazily wandering about. I'm not sure how I like the lodging but I think it's a beautiful Georgian building. My window looks out on the set for "Step In Time" from MARY POPINS: I have a great view of Dublin rooftops and chimneys.

The staff here is young and inexperienced. The young man at reception cannot transfer a call to my room, so I needed to go to reception to speak on the phone!

For a moment I flashed on how exciting it must be to have a reception every time you talk on the phone. Then I realized that's not a good thing.

SATIRE ALERT

Most importantly, vibes to Usain Bolt for having to deal with the heavy burden of being a legend.

Favorite Bob Costas quote: "As great as Bolt is, it's hard to have a higher opinion of him than he does of himself"

Well, after all, as some comedian has said - God also wanted DREAMGIRLS to win the Tony Award.

Didn't NINE win Best Musical?

It was the other god who wanted it. The false one.

Good Morning!

I'm up, I'm up... And I have my "final" rehearsal #1 (of 3) in an hour, and then our first presentation six hours after that.

Welcome to Dublin, DR elmore!

Oh...

I guess I should get ready to head out... I lingered a bit too long over my cereal this morning.

Laters...

Sunday afternoon greetings! We are still in Lima, because Fr. Richard is meeting with his vestry. I'm waiting in my favorite chair in the narthex.

More later!

Sleep well.

It sounds charming. Are you near the park?

It is almost funny that you needed to take your call in the lobby.

We are on day two of smoky air due to fires on the Oregon/California border.

I envy you.

I spent 2 months in Ireland in 1999, but except for my plane sitting on the ground for about a half hour at the airport, I never got to Dublin. I deplaned at Shannon, and most of my time was spent in and around Galway.

Beautiful photo, Jrand. On my computer, it looks like something from a ceremony from some golden age,

So maybe this will be a golden age for the couple?

What the hell am I blathering about?

Does it look that way on other computers too?

BK,

THE MAN WHO KNEW TOO MUCH is one of my favorite Hitchcock films. I would certainly be interested in hearing of any significant changes between the script and the finished picture.

FJL · « **Reply #53 on:** August 12, 2012, 10:30:20 AM »

LOL, of course, unless you can drop on over and look, there's no way you could tell.

FJL · « **Reply #54 on:** August 12, 2012, 10:37:12 AM »

Looks great on Skip's computer, too.

Whatever happens with the marriage, the wedding photos are a great success!

And this is from someone who normally doesn't put much stock in photos.

Yesterday I forgot to mention I was extremely lucky and had the single lane at the pool all to myself. I had a great swim without overworking my already overworked shoulder.
