A neat HHW shortcut I just discovered by accident. Maybe everyone else already knew this, but I didn't:


When you're on the "Daily Discussions" (index) page, and you see a daily topic with the page numbers   (1, 2, 3 ... 7) -  well, I often want to go to the page NEXT to the last page. If you click on the three dots, all the missing pages come into view for selection!    :)

Well that's a pretty cool option.

Spent the day refreshing our AAUW display board to incorporate the new association logo.  I'll post a photo tomorrow.

I've been chatting on FB with a friend whose student is writing a thesis on FINIAN'S RAINBOW, and I think it's time to get ready for bed. I'll watch a little TV and hopefully be asleep by 10:00.

DR elmore3003 isn't mentioned by name on the cover, but those are his red lip imprints!       :-*


And his wig!

I'm still pissed that Lincoln moved when I tried to shoot you in 1865!

Well, my friend Sharry was making her entrance on stage, I didn't want to miss her, and you were in the way.

It's time to head to the theater!  Tonight, we have an invited audience for our dress rehearsal.  David, the sound designer, has practically (but not actually) promised that all the sound cues would be done for tonight's performance.  We'll see if they are.  If not, only a couple of things weren't done for last night's run, so no one would really be able to tell what's not there.  And he said that he wanted to embellish some existing cues, so those already do exist, but will just be added to.

Be back later!

We had dinner with Kevin and his California friends this evening. A good time was had by all.

Kevin will send me the picture his friend took of Kevin and me. When that arrives I will post it to verify that we actually did have dinner. We went to our favorite place, The Good Stuff Diner on 14th Street and 6th Avenue.

I find the audience to be better behaved at the local theater rather than the touring shows. Of course, the local theater is mostly old people in the audience.

That is, also, true in Tacoma community theater.

Quite enjoying the new TV drama, LUCKY 7.

Unfortunately, it appears it will have a short life span as all reports show that after just 2 episodes it is headed toward cancellation.  :(
