Saturday afternoon greetings! I've spent this morning getting into Martha Moody's Sharp and Dangerous Virtues, a post-apocalyptic novel set in Dayton, OH. What's really scary is that her future is only 34 years from now!

Ooo, DR Ben, have fun at Pippin this afternoon! I saw it on Broadway in 1974.

Well, I have a rush ticket for the matinee of Pippin. I thought that 6:30am would be a good time to arrive. It's light by that time and it's only a 3 and a half hour wait instead of 4 hours. Well, at 6:30 there were already 14 people ahead of me. Luckily at No. 15 I got a ticket (they also sell both matinee and evening rush at 10am) but by 10am when they began the line was long enough that some people did not get a ticket. They sell 36 tickets (the first two rows of the orchestra) for $37. Oy, what I do for theatre. But the weather was decent and the line was calm. I had my media player so listened to WNYC on the radio and by 10:10am I had a ticket for the show.

Good show, DR Ben! Have a good time!

Mention of CIRCUS BOY yesterday made me check on YouTube and I see there are a few complete episodes there. I used to enjoy that series as well as THE RANGE RIDER and BOOTS AND SADDLES about the same time in the mid '50s.

Good morning. I took the car in for service at 8:30 AM (which is why I didn't want to stay up too late last night). man, I set the alarm, but went back to sleep and had to roll out of bed and rush to get there on time.

Then I went to the farmer's market and got some fresh asparagus.

Then I came home, cleaned the kitchen and am hanging out with the cats.

Mmm, nothing like fresh asparagus!

From DR TCB:

I swear, since I retired, I have had a problem remembering what day it is.

I had a fear of this happening so about the first thing I do when I wake up is tell myself what day of the week it is.

From DR George:

but there were a couple of times where the noise of what was going on drowned out the voices a bit.

I have a real problem with that and my hearing aids actually magnify the problem

I'm glad to know I won't have to deal with whispering

DR George I bet you are glad you forgot your aunt's were arriving

Saw old friends from high school and college last night. Took Mom and Dad out for a 58th anniversary lunch at a beautiful place along the river. And we played dominos. Oh, yeah, did a lot of work on Mom's cookbook. Finally seeing light at the end of the tunnel on that project.

Sounds like a good visit.

I did an additional mile and a half jog early last evening, thanks to some truly annoying news.

I have always found running to be the best way to deal with annoying news.

I got a book (and some sparkling gifts) in the mail today - Ye, Gods!

My book arrived, too, with lots of chochkes! Since DR MBarnum's apartment is the Land Where GoodChochkes go, I hope he's ordered a copy, too!

Be back later.

Going to see Lonesome Traveler at 2pm.

Jennifer Leigh Warren is one of the featured artists.

When I saw her parked in front of my house the other day, I told her how much I loved her song from bk's Two's Company show at the Alex Theatre.

Anyway, got to go.

The new book arrived.

I’ve been watching the film TOTAL RECALL - the 2012 remake. I can usually find something of interest in the most dire film but have to admit failure on this occasion because this is an absolutely terrible film lacking a cohesive plot or interesting characterisations. It’s just a continuous series of chases and fights which become mind-numbingly boring. After an hour I was wishing it would hurry up and end but there was still another hour to go. In comparison, the Schwarzenegger original is a masterful piece of film making.

Hello Everyone:

Beautiful Saturday here in The Buffalo NY area.
Went to a Memorial Service for my Aunt Margie. Great to see family I haven't seen in a while on my Father's side.

Kate · « **Reply #59 on:** May 18, 2013, 01:40:13 PM »

I want to watch a good mystery tonight. Anyone have any suggestions?
